In the past few days, Mother Lu has not dared to see Lu Yaqing or answer her phone calls. She has aged ten years in just half a month.
The skin that I used to take good care of in the past looked like I was in my early 30s. It has become saggy. The corners of my eyes are full of wrinkles. My whole person has lost energy and energy.
I often sit in my room in a daze for the entire day.
He was silent, as if he had lost his soul.
Although Madam Zhao was angry at what her daughter had done, after all, it was her flesh that fell from her body and she could not sit idly by.
I wanted to take Mother Lu to the Zhao family, but Mother Lu was unwilling.
Mrs. Zhao had no choice but to ask Zhao Minyao to visit her frequently to comfort her.
On this day, Zhao Minyao came over to talk to Mother Lu, and then received a call from Lu Yaqing.
As soon as the ringtone dedicated to Lu Yaqing rang on her phone, Mother Lu suddenly backed away as if she was frightened.
It’s as if the mobile phone is some kind of scary monster.
Zhao Minyao sighed: "If you don't want to pick it up, just don't pick it up."
Mother Lu shook her head, raised her hand to grab the phone, and clasped it firmly in front of her chest: "No, Yaqing will be sad."
"Then take it." Zhao Minyao frowned, "Explain the matter clearly."
Mother Lu raised her eyes, her eyes were embarrassed and helpless, and she looked at Zhao Minyao with eyes full of begging.
Zhao Minyao took a long breath and said in a helpless tone: "You answer it, I'll go out and sit for a while."
After Zhao Minyao opened the door and left, Mother Lu answered the phone.
She was just thinking about how to explain that she didn't plead with Lu Xixin, when she saw Lu Yaqing's face was as pale as paper.
"Yaqing, what's wrong with you?" Mother Lu's heart tightened, she held her phone and stared at the screen to look at Lu Yaqing carefully.
Then the more I looked at her, the more distressed she became. It had only been half a month since I last saw her, and she had become so thin, with a sickly look on her face.
"It's okay, Mom, don't worry." Lu Yaqing twitched her lips, "I just haven't slept well recently, and I have a cold. Don't worry, I'll be fine."
When Lu Yaqing said this, Mother Lu felt even more distressed and her heart almost broke.
She wanted to comfort Lu Yaqing, but she moved her lips and didn't know what to say. She just uttered three words dejectedly: "I'm sorry."
Lu Yaqing frowned without any trace, and said tentatively: "Is it that Sister Xixin doesn't want to forgive me?"
Mother Lu shook her head: "I can't see her at all, can't get through on the phone, let alone the Internet."
It was as if Lu Xixin suddenly had nothing to do with her.
It used to be that people who could be seen every day, just by making a phone call, are now hard to reach.
I tried my best and couldn't get in touch.
Some time ago, I managed to get some news about Lu Xixin. I heard that she had returned to Haicheng, but as soon as she arrived, Shen Jiayao took her to the UK.
"England?" Lu Yaqing pinched her fingers, barely concealing her irritated look, and pretended to be weak: "Mom, this won't work. We are too passive. We are looking for her all over the world, but always come up short. We have to think of a way.
"
"What can we do?"
Regarding this, Mother Lu was also helpless. She really couldn't find Lu Xixin.
Some time ago, I met Lu Xixin at the Gu family's banquet, but there was no time to speak.
Lu Yaqing lowered her eyes and said in a bewitching voice: "Apologise on Weibo. She will always see the messages posted online."
Mother Lu didn’t quite understand: “Can she really read it?”
Lu Yaqing whispered: "Put it on the hot search and she will naturally see it."
Mother Lu stiffened and looked stunned.
No matter how old-fashioned she is, she relies on her identity and does not get involved in the news on the Internet, and she also knows what hot searches mean.
This is clearly using public opinion to force Lu Xixin.
The biological mother apologized hoarsely on Weibo. As a daughter, Lu Xixin, if she doesn’t forgive her, what will netizens think of her?
Especially when she just won the Lasker Award, she is now the most popular young scientist, and many young people regard her as their idol.
In this case, if there is a stain on her morals.
The consequences are simply unimaginable!
Just the backlash from those young people who admired her was enough to destroy her.
Mother Lu shrank and spoke hesitantly: "Yaqing, isn't this moral kidnapping?"
"Mom!" Lu Yaqing suddenly came closer to the camera, her voice as gloomy as a ghost: "Look at me, look at me quickly, look at my eyes, my skin, my dark circles..."
Lu Yaqing's entire face was glaring in front of the camera.
The suddenly enlarged, thin face looked like a skeleton. Mother Lu's scalp instantly went numb, her eyes were filled with fear, and she almost screamed.
"Mom, if you don't come out, I'm going to go crazy!" Lu Yaqing looked crazy.
Seeing Lu Yaqing like this, Mother Lu finally couldn't control her emotions and burst into tears: "I'll post it, I'll post it online, I promise you!"
Lu Yaqing pursed her lips, and her eyes were filled with a smile.
After a while, it turned into a pitiful expression.
"Mom." Her tone was trembling, and tears fell, "I don't want to do this, but I can't help it. If I stay any longer, I'm really going to die. I'm going to die!"
"Don't cry, don't cry." Mother Lu was heartbroken. Her chest seemed to be squeezed by something. The pain made her unable to breathe. "Be good, Yaqing, don't cry. Mom will save you."
After hanging up the phone, Mother Lu raised her eyes and caught Zhao Minyao's sharp gaze.
"You want to use public opinion to force Lu Xixin to forgive Lu Yaqing?" Zhao Minyao asked.
Mother Lu shrank her shoulders and denied it strongly: "No, I didn't force her. I really want to apologize. Yaqing also sincerely regrets it. She really knows she was wrong."
I don’t know if I am trying to persuade myself or Zhao Minyao.
Mother Lu murmured to herself: "Xixin was not hurt, was she? Why can't she forgive Yaqing? She was not hurt at all."
Disappointment flashed in Zhao Minyao's eyes: "Is there nothing wrong with attempted murder?"
"That's not right!" Mother Lu shook her head like a rattle, "Yaqing didn't want to hurt Xixin, she just wanted to scare her. Xixin is wrong too. Since she is the granddaughter of the miracle doctor Gu Ze, why didn't she tell her earlier?
What? Why conceal your identity?"
The more Mother Lu spoke, the more excited she became: "If Lu Xixin had revealed her identity earlier, Yaqing would not have gotten into this situation step by step with contempt."
Speaking of this, mother Lu's eyes flashed with complaint: "At first, Yaqing was just too scared, afraid of losing the favor of me and her father, so she found someone to deliberately scare Lu Xixin. It was the evil man who took it upon himself to rape her.
Lu Xixin, this is not Yaqing’s fault at all!”
"There is also the hot spring hotel. Yaqing framed Lu Xixin. Yaqing was afraid of losing Gu Xiuming. She just loved Xiuming too much. Moreover, she did not want to send Lu Xixin to jail. She just made Gu Xiuming misunderstand Lu Xixin."
Zhao Minyao said in a mocking tone: "So, I have to be grateful to Lu Yaqing for her magnanimity!"
"Min Yao!" Mother Lu's voice became sharp, "How can you think like this? You have watched Ya Qing grow up. Do you just watch her suffer and suffer? Do you want to force her to death?"
Zhao Minyao lowered her head: "What has she suffered? She didn't even go to jail. That sanatorium was specially built for her. Isn't that enough? Don't you deserve to be punished if you do something wrong?"
The more Zhao Minyao talked, the angrier she became. She didn't want to communicate anymore and said coldly: "I will tell Xixin about this."
