Chapter 880: An Old Friend (2)

Lu Xiangtians expression changed when he heard Zhao Youlins words. His sharp eyes stared at Zhao Youlin unmovingly, as if he was confirming whether what Zhao Youlin said was true.

The atmosphere between the two of them froze for a moment. After what seemed like hours, Lu Xiangtian seemed to have made up his mind. He asked in a deep voice, Then may I ask, Ms. Zhao, who is the friend who left the necklace with you and where is she now?

Zhao Youlin seemed to have expected Lu Xiangtian to ask about this after hearing her words, and she smiled. She said in a deliberately mystifying manner, Mr. Lu, are you doubting my words? Heh, believe it or not, but with my friends ident.i.ty, you can forget about learning anything about my friend from me. My friend is not as fortunate as I am. She is just an ordinary person and wouldnt survive a visit from the Lu family. Moreover, if youre not lacking in hearing, you should have heard it clearly. Ive already said that my friend has been away for many years. Now, even I dont know where she has gone. Thats why this necklace is all that remains of her. I cant answer you, even if I wanted to.

Zhao Youlins words were sarcastic. At the same time, it also hinted that Qin Huai might have been harmed by another party. She was betting that Lu Xiangtian knew about these things, but she had been holding back.

Reality proved that although Zhao Youlins guess was wrong, she was ultimately right.

If Lu Xiangtian initially thought that Zhao Youlin was deliberately trying to sow discord between him and Lu Shu, he was indeed shaken now. He could not imagine what the consequences would be if he really found the wrong woman, and if he had mistaken her for his child. The consequences might be too much for him.

Especially after what Zhao Youlin said just now. There was not a hint of guilt or hesitation in her words. It was as if that was the truth, and he could not help but believe her!

When Zhao Youlin saw that Lu Xiangtian did not refute her, she knew that the seed of doubt had already been planted in his heart. The seed would then take root and sprout in his heart and then grow into a towering tree. When that happened, an ugly can of worms would be popped open.

Thinking of this, Zhao Youlin could not help but take a deep breath. She smiled at Lu Xiangtian openly. Since it has come to this, I have nothing more to say. You have your concerns, and I have my principles. Mr. Lu, why dont you go and check who this necklace belongs to? If you can really prove that the owner of the necklace is your wife and the mother of Miss Lu, then Im not an unreasonable person. When the time comes, Ill move tooth and nail to seek out my friend. Now

Zhao Youlin glanced at the group of bodyguards behind Lu Xiangtian. Her meaning was self-evident.

Lu Xiangtian had come here today because he had made up his mind to get the necklace from Zhao Youlin. Even if he had to resort to some extraordinary means, Zhao Youlins words had completely thrown Lu Xiangtians heart into chaos.

Instead of continuing to make things difficult for Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng, Lu Xiangtians face was gloomy. He waved his hand to signal the bodyguards behind him to make way.

Zhao Youlin didnt want to waste any more time with Lu Xiangtian. She led Mu Tingfeng and walked out of the group.

Lu Xiangtian watched the two of them leave. He stood where he was and pondered for a while. His face suddenly darkened. He glanced at the anxious bodyguards and said coldly, Lets go.

The bodyguards looked as if they had been granted amnesty. They looked at each other and hurriedly followed him.

On the other side, Zhao Youlin followed Mu Tingfeng into the car. The two of them sped back to the Mu family. No one spoke on the way back.

The moment the car stopped, Mu Tingfeng reached out to grab Zhao Youlins hand. However, he found that her hand was extremely cold. It was even slightly trembling. Her eyes were staring blankly ahead.

Mu Tingfengs expression changed slightly. He called out to Zhao Youlin a few times before he managed to pull her attention back.

Zhao Youlin closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths. When she opened her eyes again, her expression was not as dreadful as before.

Im fine. Lets go up first.

Mu Tingfeng frowned. Although he was still a little worried, it was not too late. He nodded and brought Zhao Youlin upstairs.

As soon as they entered the room, Zhao Youlin turned around and hugged Mu Tingfengs waist, burying herself in his arms.

Zhao Youlins rare initiative stunned Mu Tingfeng for a moment. However, he also knew that Zhao Youlins emotions werent stable at the moment. After he reacted, he hesitantly reached out and patted Zhao Youlins back. He coaxed her in a low voice, Its okay, its okay.

Zhao Youlin was nestled in Mu Tingfengs arms to calm the shock in her heart. When she suddenly heard Mu Tingfengs words, she finally could not help but burst into laughter.

At a time like this, shouldnt you ask what happened just now? Whats with your coaxing tone?

Seeing the smile on Zhao Youlins face again, Mu Tingfengs expression couldnt help but become a little more gentle. Its good that youre happy. There are some things you can say if you want to.

Zhao Youlin was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile, Youll spoil me like this. I wasnt so weak in the past.

Even so, Zhao Youlin still obediently leaned into Mu Tingfengs arms, trying to find a trace of stability from him.

Mu Tingfeng naturally also noticed this. He pursed his lips and smiled, but didnt say anything.

Zhao Youlin smiled for a while. She leaned into Mu Tingfengs arms and whispered, Lu Xiangtian came to look for me again today, and its still because of that necklace. I was a little annoyed, to begin with. With him pestering me like this, I couldnt help but ask him, why was he so obsessed with this necklace? Why must he have it? He told me that the necklace was left behind by his late wife.

Mu Tingfeng was stunned. In fact, he had already guessed it when he saw Zhao Youlin arguing with Lu Xiangtian, but he still couldnt react when he heard it from Zhao Youlin.

You mean that the necklace your mother left for you is Lu Xiangtians wifes legacy? Then you

Zhao Youlin stood up from Mu Tingfengs arms. She shook her head slowly. I dont know. My mind is in a mess right now. I dont know what to do? Im not sure if what he said is true, and Im even less sure if my guess is true. If If its true, then where did Lu Shu come from? But if its not true, then why is that necklace in my hands? Did my orphanage mix it all up from the beginning? That necklace isnt Its not
