Chapter 501: Her Mother Was Actually The Big Boss Behind House Of Swallow Snow
“Weiwei, you don’t blame me? You don’t blame me for abandoning you?”
Madam Lin’s voice trembled as she asked the question.
Still in Madam Lin’s arms, Lu Liangwei shook her head, replying with understanding in her tone, “I don’t blame you. You must have your reasons for it.”
Madam Lin’s eyes turned red.
She was both touched and surprised that her daughter had forgiven her so easily.
When she had previously heard others talk about her daughter, they had always sounded condescending and talked about Lu Liangwei with disdain. It made Madam Lin hate Lu Hetian all over again for bringing up their daughter so terribly. Seeing her daughter with her own eyes made her realize that the rumors she had heard were not true at all.
Her daughter was such a good girl. She was obedient and filial, in stark contrast to the rumors that circulated out there.
On account of her daughter being brought up well, she found that her hatred toward Lu Hetian diminished somewhat.
Lu Hetian took a step forward as he stared at the mother and daughter hugging each other. He reached out his hand, but silently put it down in the end, as if afraid of crossing some invisible line.
Long Yang darted a look at him.
It was rare to see the Grand Duke looking so sad and dejected.
What exactly had happened between him and Madam Ling all those years ago?
He glanced at Madam Lin while he contemplated this.
“Have you really made your decision?” Madam Lin released Lu Liangwei and asked gently while tidying Lu Liangwei’s tousled-up hair.
Lu Liangwei nodded. “Yes, Mother. I’ve made my decision.”
Madam Lin sighed. “Since you’ve already decided, I’ll stop trying to talk you out of it. You’re all grown up, after all, and know what you’re doing.”
Lu Liangwei nodded. “Yes. Don’t worry, Mother. I know what I’m doing.”
Madam Lin was still worried, especially at the thought of that Ji Linghui in the Palace, who was constantly scheming and planning to assassinate her daughter. This made her even more concerned.
“You must remember that I will always be supporting and protecting you at all times.” Madam Lin paused and reached into her pocket.
She placed a token of authority into Lu Liangwei’s palm. “This is the token of authority for the House of Swallow Snow. With this, you have the authority to dispatch all powers within the House.”
Lu Liangwei was stunned when she heard the name of House of Swallow Snow. She lowered her head to examine the token of authority. “House of Swallow Snow?”
Madam Lin explained, “I was only aware of the mission the House had accepted to assassinate you much later. The assassination order has been retracted now. They will no longer try to assassinate you.” Madam Lin still felt enraged when she spoke of this.
She had never imagined that her own house of assassins would take up the mission of assassinating her daughter. Those people must have been blind.
She deeply regretted not killing Supervisor Chen who had accepted the mission.
It was lucky that Weiwei was fortunate enough to keep her life, otherwise, no one involved would be left alive!
Lu Liangwei finally put the piece together when she heard this.
It was no wonder none of the assassins from House of Swallow Snow had appeared again after their assassination attempt at West of the city the last time.
She had thought that the House must be preparing a huge scheme for her assassination. As it turned out, it was actually because her mother had retracted the assassination order.
Her mother was actually the big boss behind House of Swallow Snow. This was something she had never anticipated!
A smile appeared on her lips.
Who would have thought that the big boss of House of Swallow Snow that struck fear in everyone’s heart was a woman? Moreover, this woman was her mother.
This was a twist that came as a big surprise to her.
“Keep the token of authority well,” Madam Lin said gently.
Lu Liangwei did not reject her offer and placed the token of authority in her pocket. She grabbed Madam Lin’s hands. “Mother, come back with me. At the very least, you should see me get married. I’d like you to comb my hair for me.”
Lu Hetian, who was standing on the sidelines, gave Madam Lin a hopeful look when he heard this.
Madam Lin could not bear to reject her daughter when she saw the expectant look in her eyes, but there was something she wanted to avoid, so she replied evasively, “I still have matters to attend to…”
