After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies

Although Xiao Jincheng's tone was gentle, Lilith trembled violently, her face as white as paper, and she looked at Xiao Jincheng as if she were looking at a ghost.

"What's wrong? Were you scared by Join? It's alright, Grandpa has already taken care of him. He won't bother you anymore!"

Lilith knew Xiao Jincheng too well. The more composed he was, the more ruthless he was. You never knew when he would kill someone without leaving a trace.

In a flash, Lilith quickly analyzed the pros and cons of her situation. After weighing the options, she knelt down before Xiao Jincheng, weeping bitterly, and said, "Grandpa, I was wrong. I shouldn't have listened to Join's instigation and used Xuan'er to wipe out these guys! Lilith has disappointed you. I'm so sorry!"

Xiao Jincheng seemed like a kind old man, gentle and without temper. Even when Lilith made a big mistake, he still smiled and said, "It's just that you trusted the wrong person, it's not a big deal. Why make yourself sound like a sinner?"

Lilith looked at Xiao Jincheng hesitantly and asked cautiously, "Grandpa, are you... really willing to forgive Lilith?"

“You haven’t done anything wrong, why should Grandpa punish you?” Xiao Jincheng looked at Lilith with a smile, his hands folded in front of him, and said in a leisurely tone, “It’s just that the bastard in your belly can’t be kept.”

A sudden loud noise rang in her ears. Lilith stared at Xiao Jincheng in disbelief, shouting hoarsely, "Grandpa, how can you say such a thing about the Xiao family bloodline! This child, like Xuan'er, is also a member of the Xiao family!"

The smile slowly faded, and Xiao Jincheng's wrinkled face resembled the rough roots of an ancient tree, covered with mottled marks.

"The Xiao family's roots? Heh, Lilith, it seems you're really confused. How could the child you had with that man have the surname Xiao?"

"Why can't my child with Mingyang have the surname Xiao!" Lilith retorted angrily. "Does that mean in your heart, only Xuan'er is your great-grandson?"

"Wrong. Any child a woman bears with Mingyang is a member of the Xiao family. But your husband is just Xiao Mingyang's puppet. What right does he have to leave a bloodline for our Xiao family?"

Lilith froze, recalling the phone call from just now. Her face paled little by little, and her voice, like shattered ice, trembled and sharp as she said, "Grandpa means that the man I sleep with every day is not Xiao Mingyang?"

Xiao Jincheng simply smiled at Lilith, his expression unreadable. But this attitude alone had already answered Lilith, driving her to a frenzy.

Lilith stood up abruptly, shaking her head, and said, "How could that be? I'm with him every day. If he's a fake, how could I not have noticed?! Grandpa, you can't just slander me and Mingyang like this if you want to hand the Xiao family over to Xuan'er!"

"If that person really is Mingyang, where is he now? Given his personality, would he abandon you here alone?"

Xiao Jincheng's words made Lilith grow colder and colder. She couldn't imagine what would happen to her if what her grandfather said was true!

Seeing Lilith's distraught state, Lin Yuqing felt conflicted.

She hated Lilith; it was Lilith's repeated betrayals that prevented their family from being reunited. Whatever punishment this woman receives now, it's deserved. But now, Lilith's state—neither human nor ghost—is truly heartbreaking.

Just as Lin Yuqing was feeling a pang of sadness, she suddenly noticed blood flowing between Lilith's legs and screamed, "Lilith, sit down right now!"

Lilith is in a state of panic right now, so how could she possibly listen to Lin Yuqing's advice?

With one arm around Lin Yuqing, Zhang Kaifeng said softly, "Don't pay attention to that crazy woman. What she does now is none of our business."

"But……"

"Alright, Yuqing, some people deserve sympathy, but some people are just incorrigible. We don't need to waste our goodwill on such people."

Hearing Zhang Kaifeng's words, Lin Yuqing glanced in Lilith's direction, then turned her head away, her mind uneasy.

Zhang Kaifeng knew that Lin Yuqing was kind-hearted after all, and it was indeed cruel to make her witness these things. But Xiao Jincheng's unexpected appearance was something he hadn't anticipated.

Zhang Kaifeng's brows furrowed slightly as he stared intently at Xiao Jincheng.

On the other side, Xiao Jincheng looked at the dazed Lilith and shook his head with a sigh, "Ah, Lilith, I watched you grow up. You were always the best one since you were little. I never thought that after meeting Mingyang, you would become just like an ordinary stupid woman. It's really disappointing."

Sitting blankly on the ground, Lilith looked up at Xiao Jincheng, her eyes unfocused, and asked, "Grandpa, if the people next to me are fake, then where is the real Xiao Mingyang?"

Sitting comfortably in his wheelchair, Xiao Jincheng smiled gently, yet uttered exceptionally cruel words.

"He has always lived with his wife, and they are very happy together."

Lilith stiffened slightly, looked at Lin Yuqing, and a deep-seated hatred flashed in her eyes.

It's Lin Yuqing again!

All her scheming and plotting only resulted in a counterfeit. Her dream remained just a dream; she had never truly possessed Xiao Mingyang...

Staring intently at Lin Yuqing, Lilith asked blankly, "Grandpa, did Mingyang never love me from beginning to end?"

"You just know now?"

Clenching her fists tightly, Lilith seemed to suddenly realize something. She took a few steps toward Xiao Jincheng, her face contorted with pain, and cried out in anguish, "Grandpa, I was wrong! I was blinded by love! Please give me another chance. I promise I won't let you down!"

Looking at Lilith in front of him, Xiao Jincheng neither said yes nor no, but simply patted her head lightly and said, "Lilith, you've been with me for so many years, you should know that there are two kinds of people I hate most in my life. One is traitors, and the other is drug addicts! And you have both of those qualities. Tell me, how should I help you?"

Lilith squatted in front of Xiao Jincheng like a statue, completely still.

Xiao Jincheng's past feelings for Lilith are Lilith's only chance to survive. But now, Lilith has violated Xiao Jincheng's taboo, and no one can predict what he will do.

With a slight smile, Xiao Jincheng looked at Lilith and said leisurely, "You should know that there are no secrets in front of me!"

Now, Lilith has lost all her chances of turning the tables, and she doesn't know what she still has that can convince Xiao Jincheng.

Lilith collapsed to the ground, head bowed, blood flowing more and more from beneath her, yet she seemed oblivious to the pain, her eyes lifeless and her expression utterly wretched.
