About five minutes later, there was a sudden noise from the bedroom window. Xin Yu knew that someone had brought her food. She found it ridiculous and pursed her lips into a self-mocking smile. Was she a prisoner now? She was being held captive and had to go through so much trouble just to eat. What did she do wrong?!
No, she had to leave this place.
Xin Yu was stubborn in her bones. She was never a person who would easily admit defeat. Not to mention, why should she do that? So what if she had an "affair"? No one had the right to hold her captive like this!
Xin Yu ran to the window and looked at the food. She found it ridiculous. She didn't even touch the food and only observed the surrounding terrain downstairs.
Her and Lu Yihan's wedding room was on the third floor of the villa. It was just below the balcony of the room and faced a spacious lawn. Xin Yu didn't stay in the Lu family for a long time, but she knew that the lawn here was usually taken care of. It was just that in this season, there were fewer people taking care of it.
She pondered for a moment. Jumping down from the third floor was simply suicidal. She didn't want to die yet.
However, she had no other choice. She couldn't leave from the main entrance, so she could only leave from here. After pondering for a long time, she suddenly thought of something.
Bed sheets!
Yes, the Lu family's things were all high-end. The quality of the bed sheets in this room must be good. She thought for a moment. The bed was about two meters wide, so the bed sheets must be about the same size. She immediately walked into the room and found a pair of scissors. She cut the bed sheets one by one and tied a knot on the top of each piece. After making sure that it wouldn't loosen, she tied one end of the bed sheets to the balcony railing and let the other end fall. The long piece of bed sheets fell to the ground. There were still some extra pieces.
Xin Yu heaved a sigh of relief. That's great!
She could just climb down the bed sheets like this.
It was just that she had never done such a dangerous action before, so she still had some fear in her heart. But compared to passively being confined in this room, she would rather choose to take the risk!
Xin Yu tugged at the bed sheets heavily. After making sure that they wouldn't break, she took a deep breath and patted her chest. She told herself, "Don't be afraid, Leng Xinyu. Be brave. It's only the third floor. Even if I fall down, there's still a layer of grass below. Even if I take ten thousand steps back, I won't die …"
It's okay. I'll be fine.... Leng Xinyu, you can do it!
She bit her lip.... She grabbed the bed sheets and leaned against the balcony.......... She was about..
Xin Yu's heart skipped a beat. She quickly retreated. She didn't know who was coming in, but no matter who it was, she couldn't let the person outside know what she was doing.
She quickly walked into the room, closed the balcony door, and drew the curtains. The huge bed was a mess. Xin Yu hurriedly spread out the blanket to cover the entire bed. This way, no one would notice that she had taken the bed sheets.
After doing all this, she quickly walked to the entrance. Just as she arrived, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Xin Yu never dreamed that the person who came in was not Lu Shiyun, Lu Yihan, or Li Muhua. It was actually Lu Yiting.
"…"
"…"
The two of them stood at the entrance. After looking at each other for a while, neither of them spoke. Lu Yiting had obviously snuck in. Xin Yu noticed that her expression was a little abnormal. There was a trace of obvious panic.
"… What are you doing here?" Xin Yu was the first to speak. She definitely wouldn't think that Lu Yiting had come in to save her out of kindness. It was good enough that Lu Yiting didn't kick her when she was down.
"Lower your voice!"
Lu Yiting immediately raised her index finger and looked cautious. "… Leng Xinyu, you've been locked up for almost two days. How is it? Does it feel good? "
"You went through so much trouble to come in just to ridicule me?"
Xin Yu sneered. She straightened her back and retorted, "Lu Yiting, you're quite free. But if you want to see me uncomfortable, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I'm eating and living here. It's no big deal."
She would never show any weakness in front of someone she didn't like. Even if she wanted to leave this room, she wouldn't beg Lu Yiting.
"So you like being locked up?"
Lu Yiting looked incredulous. She paused and sneered, "You're indeed a cheap wretch!"
Xin Yu's face darkened. No matter what, Lu Yiting was still her sister-in-law. Xin Yu naturally didn't need to be afraid of her. Since Lu Yiting spoke without thinking, she immediately put on a cold face and said word by word, "You came in just to take advantage of me with your mouth. You can get out now."
"You —"
Lu Yiting pointed at Xin Yu. "You're still so stubborn even when you're about to die. You deserve to be locked up!"
Xin Yu couldn't be bothered with her. She didn't even know why Lu Yiting had come in. But this kind of rich missy was really just like that. She was here to kick her when she was down, right? She didn't want to bother with her. It was a waste of time and energy. No matter what Lu Yiting said, if she ignored her, Lu Yiting would probably get bored and leave immediately.
Xin Yu sat on the sofa gracefully and didn't say a word. Seeing her like this, Lu Yiting was so angry that her nose became crooked. But when she thought about her purpose for coming in, she swallowed the anger in her throat.
"Leng Xinyu, do you want to get out?"
"…"
"Don't doubt me. It's true that I don't like you, and I can't wait for you to divorce my brother as soon as possible and get out of the Lu family. But that's a separate matter. Since you're locked up here, I can secretly let you out."
Xin Yu's fair fingers twitched slightly. Countless thoughts ran through her mind. She wasn't sure what Lu Yiting's motive was. Did she really intend to let her go?
…
No, she had to be careful. In the Lu family, even if it was Lu Shiyun or Lu Yihan, she still believed that these two men wouldn't hurt her. But it was different for Li Muhua and Lu Yiting, especially Li Muhua. She probably couldn't wait for her to die. She couldn't fall for it so easily.
Xin Yu calmed herself down and slowly lifted her head to look at Lu Yiting. "… What do you want?"
"I don't want anything. I want to make a deal with you."
"…"
Xin Yu frowned. She thought for a moment and asked, "You want to make a deal with me? You have to tell me first. Why did you lock me up in this room? What did I do wrong? "
Lu Yiting looked displeased. Her eyes were filled with mockery and disdain that couldn't be concealed.
"Why did I lock you up? Don't you know? What shameful things have you done? Do you need me to list them out one by one? Leng Xinyu, I'm not afraid to tell you that I don't have any ill intentions by locking you up. It's just that tomorrow night is your fifth wedding anniversary with my brother. My father has already made such a big deal out of this anniversary. Do you think we can just cancel it just because you said so? What kind of family do you think our Lu family is? "
"…"
Xin Yu's heart trembled. Judging from Lu Yiting's words, it shouldn't be Lu Yihan's idea to lock her up. It should be … Lu Shiyun's idea?
No wonder that butler came over every day and even said something about Old Master being in the hospital. He was probably trying to fool her too, right?
…
A chill suddenly crept up from the soles of her feet. Xin Yu felt her hands and feet turn cold. Even if they really couldn't push it to this anniversary, what was the meaning of locking her up?
Could it be that she didn't feel anything? She was also a human. She was also made of flesh and blood and had her own thoughts. Lu Yihan ignored her multiple requests for a "divorce" and even used such a "violent" method to lock her up. Wasn't this behavior too much?
"… Hey, Leng Xinyu, I'm talking to you. Can you hear me?"
Lu Yiting waited for Xin Yu's response for a long time and was getting a little impatient. After all, she had snuck in secretly. Everyone in the family had been ordered not to step into this room, including her brother. After he left angrily that day, he never came back.
Lu Yiting actually wasn't very clear about the problem between Lu Shiyun and Leng Xinyu.
In the Lu family, the only person who looked up to Leng Xinyu the most was Lu Shiyun. And all this while, it was Lu Shiyun who had protected her. Now, he had locked her up in this room. Thinking about it, Lu Yihan must have been disappointed in her after her affair with Lu Yihan was exposed.
It was good that he was disappointed. A shameless woman like her would have been chased out of the family a long time ago.
…
However, Lu Yiting felt that this wasn't something she should be worrying about right now. From her point of view, Leng Xinyu was already at her last gasp. There was no need for her to waste time dealing with her. On the contrary, at a time like this, she should take advantage of this opportunity to "fight" for something. That was the most important thing.
…
"… Leng Xinyu, I'm talking to you."
"What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"
Xin Yu didn't believe Lu Yiting, but she knew in her heart that Lu Yiting was much easier to deal with compared to Li Muhua. To put it bluntly, Lu Yiting was a scheming and evil person, but she wasn't considered a smart person. However, Xin Yu told herself that she had to be careful at such a sensitive time. Since Lu Yiting mentioned a "deal," she might as well listen to what she had to say first.
After being with Qin Fangang for a long time, she realized that she liked to think carefully about people and things. Compared to when she had just returned from England, she was clearly much more composed now.
Lu Yiting crossed her arms and looked arrogant. "I know you want to get out of here. I can help you get out. But you can't betray me if I help you. Also, you have to agree to one condition."
Xin Yu curled her lips and waited with interest for the "condition" that she mentioned.
"Miss Lu, I really don't know what you like about me. Why don't you tell me what you want from me?"
