Chapter 108 : After Today, the Liu Family and Liu Ruyin Will Become Street Rats…(Full Chapter)
Night, the Lu residence.
After escorting Lu Zhaozhao back home, Lu Tianren told Lu Rongsheng everything that had happened at the banquet tonight.
After understanding the whole sequence of events, Lu Rongsheng closed his eyes and sighed softly.
"So that's how it is… Seems like Tang Qingmo had already planned to ruin the Liu family's reputation, so he could break off the engagement with a legitimate reason!"
Tang Qingmo and Liu Ruyin's relationship had been extremely hostile for a long time, but because of an agreement made between the two families years ago, they were forced to stay bound together.
So in order to dissolve the engagement—and to take revenge on Liu Ruyin—tonight's plan was born.
Even if it was unclear whether the feral beast incident had been an accident, Tang Qingmo had still saved Lu Tianren and Lu Zhaozhao. Therefore, to repay that favor, the Lu family would work with the government department to issue an "investigation order" against the Liu family.
During that period, what family would still dare to get involved with the Liu family?
They would be dying to cut ties with them immediately!
After tonight, the Liu family and Liu Ruyin would become street rats in Modu (Demon City)—at the point where anyone could step on them.
"Tang Qingmo is really ruthless," Lu Rongsheng said.
But despite those words, his expression was full of admiration.
Lu Tianren nodded in agreement. "Luckily, he isn't our enemy."
Just as they continued talking about what happened tonight, Lu Tianren's phone suddenly chimed with a notification.
"It's from Tang Qingmo."
Lu Rongsheng asked, "What did he say?"
"He wants me to go to Pukong Psychiatric Hospital." Lu Tianren put away his phone, his expression turning serious. "It's probably related to his fifth sister."
"Fifth sister? The Tang Xuerong you mentioned before—the one the Tang family sent to the hospital?"
"Yes…"
Although Tang Xuerong had originally been a popular celebrity, after the scandal of abusing her younger brother went viral online, her entertainment company had no choice but to bury her career. Now, there was no trace of her movements anywhere on the internet.
As for the matter of her being sent into a psychiatric hospital, the Tang family had also sealed off all news of it.
If it weren't for Lu Tianren becoming Tang Qingmo's bodyguard, Lu Rongsheng would never have known so many major things were happening inside the Tang family.
Lu Tianren added, "Tang Qingmo told me that if we want to keep working together harmoniously in the future, he needs me to go over and witness something."
That wording…
Whether he witnessed it or not, he was still going to be Tang Qingmo's bodyguard for the next year.
Yet Lu Rongsheng chuckled slyly. "Since he's making it sound so important, you'd better hurry over!"
"...Alright." Lu Tianren let out a quiet sigh.
After spending only a short time with Tang Qingmo, he could already sense that this trip would be filled with bad premonitions again.
"Then I'll head over first. I'll contact you later, Father."
"Okay."
Lu Rongsheng smiled as he watched Lu Tianren's departing back.
He realized that after staying by Tang Qingmo's side, Lu Tianren seemed to have become much calmer and more composed in such a short amount of time, and he couldn't help feeling gratified.
Sure enough, letting him follow Tang Qingmo had been the right decision!
*
Lu Tianren drove as fast as he could, heading straight for Pukong Psychiatric Hospital.
When he reached the front gate, he could already see Tang Qingmo standing there, playing with his phone.
The moment Lu Tianren stepped out of the car, he walked up and said, "Young Master Tang, sorry I'm late."
"It's fine. I'm the one who called you over at this hour." Tang Qingmo put away his phone expressionlessly, then turned and walked into the hospital. "Let's go in."
"Yes."
Lu Tianren followed behind Tang Qingmo.
Since they were here at this hospital, it was most likely related to Tang Xuerong.
So he asked curiously, "Young Master Tang, did something happen to Fifth Miss Tang?"
After being sent here, Tang Xuerong had been kept under Tang Qingmo's arrangements, subjected to all kinds of painful experiments!
Under those circumstances, it wouldn't be strange for something to go wrong…
Yet Tang Qingmo was silent for a few seconds before speaking softly.
"Probably."
"Huh?"
"Today, at the Liu family's banquet, I suddenly thought of my fifth sister. So I got curious and messaged Chen Biantai. Turns out… she really did have an accident."
What?
Lu Tianren was completely confused, but Tang Qingmo's voice was flat—like he was talking about a total stranger.
They reached the reception desk. Nurse Xiao Hong had already prepared everything and led them toward the hospital's underground level.
When they arrived at Tang Xuerong's room, the moment the door opened, they saw Chen Biantai wearing a grim expression, no longer looking like that energetic young guy he used to be.
Through the glass wall, they could see Tang Xuerong sitting on the bed inside, her eyes empty and her expression dull.
The moment Chen Biantai saw them, he immediately stepped forward.
"Young Master Tang, Young Master Lu—you're here!"
Tang Qingmo went straight to the point. "How is Tang Xuerong?"
Chen Biantai sighed and led them into the room past the glass wall.
Tang Xuerong showed no reaction at all, even with people entering. Her hollow eyes stared blankly into space, as if she didn't even know what she was looking at.
Seeing her like this, Lu Tianren couldn't help wiping away cold sweat as he asked, "She's… what happened to her?"
She was like a broken doll!!
Chen Biantai said with a dejected tone, "It should be that her brain suffered too many blows and excessive stimulation. It caused extreme damage to Miss Xuerong's psyche. In order to escape reality… she sealed her heart away."
What a pity.
After such difficulty obtaining an experimental subject, it broke down so quickly…
Lu Tianren: "..."
It wasn't strange for Tang Xuerong to end up like this.
Even before she was sent to the hospital, she had already suffered a huge blow from Tang Feifei and Tang Xianxi's marriage matter. After that, she was subjected to all kinds of experiments—and Tang Qingmo's torment…
A mental breakdown was only a matter of time.
Seeing this, Lu Tianren couldn't help feeling sorrow and sympathy for Tang Xuerong.
But in the next second, he saw Tang Qingmo slowly walk up in front of Tang Xuerong… and raise his hand.
Slap—!
