Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions
Chapter 40 The Betrothed Childhood Sweetheart
Lu Ziyin wasn't happy to receive the praise; instead, a sense of irritation rose within her. She lowered her eyes, a forced smile playing on her lips. "Chu Mo, don't you have anything you want to ask me?"
Why don't you question me? Why aren't you angry? Why do you never see me, no matter what I do?
Shen Chumo combed her hair with her fingers. Her hair was black, shiny, and smooth. With just a gentle touch, her hair would become neat and tidy, like an expensive shawl, cascading down her chest.
Shen Chumo's expression remained unchanged as she looked up at Lu Ziyin and asked, "What do you want me to ask you?"
Lu Ziyin looked into Shen Chumo's clear eyes, which were like a mirror reflecting his figure. She seemed to see through everything, including his disguise, making his ugliness nowhere to hide.
Lu Ziyin clenched her fists, her aura plummeted, and her face darkened. "You knew everything, didn't you?"
Shen Chumo chuckled, got up from the bed, and the chains on her feet made a jarring sound with her movements.
"Are you trying to talk about kidnapping me? Or are you trying to talk about...?" Shen Chumo's tone shifted, "...between betraying the Shen family~"
Lu Ziyin's pupils widened slightly, somewhat incredulous. After a long while, he suddenly laughed. His delicate face, adorned with a smile, made him appear like a perfectly handsome, sunny young man, ignoring his grotesque gaze.
"Chu Mo, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You and I are the same kind of people."
They are equally adept at disguising themselves, appearing kind and beautiful on the surface, seemingly without desires, but in reality, their hearts are incredibly dark and they hold grudges.
Shen Chumo burst out laughing as if she had heard something amusing.
"You and I are the same kind of people? Lu Ziyin, do you overestimate yourself or underestimate me? Someone like you who can betray even your benefactor has no bottom line. To compare me to you is an insult."
Shen Chumo ruthlessly stabbed Lu Ziyin in the heart.
Lu Ziyin's face instantly darkened, and he angrily said, "Benefactor? He doesn't deserve that title!!"
The Shen family killed my parents on one hand, and adopted me on the other, thus enhancing their reputation as great benefactors. Can they really be considered benefactors?
Shen Guoan and I have a blood feud. Even if I betray the Shen family, it's only for revenge! They owe me this!!
Lu Ziyin's breathing quickened, and his whole body trembled. It was clear that his hatred for Shen Guoan had become extremely deep.
Shen Chumo raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. "As far as I know, your parents' traffic accident was caused by fatigue driving, and there were only your parents in the car. There was no third person. What does this have to do with the Shen family?"
Lu Ziyin's eyes were bloodshot as she gritted her teeth and said, "It's all because of Shen Guoan!"
Lu Ziyin's thoughts drifted into memories. "Back then, my father was Shen Guoan's direct secretary, and my mother was also an employee in the secretariat. We lived a comfortable life, with no worries about food or clothing."
But Shen Guoan deliberately made things difficult for my parents, assigning them a lot of work during that period.
I remember my parents working day and night back then, often even sleeping at the company.
After a long period of hard work, their mental state was already poor, yet Shen Guoan still sent them on business trips, which led to my parents driving while fatigued and causing a car accident!
Shen's is such a large company, with so many employees under Shen Guoan, why does he insist on wasting my parents' time?
What's even more ridiculous is that Shen Guoan insisted on adopting me. It wasn't enough for him to profit from my parents' exploitation; he also wanted to squeeze every last drop of value from their son to enhance his own reputation.
Those people want me to be grateful to Shen Guoan? Haha, to be grateful to my father's killer? Do you know how much I hate him?!
So while I was living with the Shen family, I secretly stole their information and sold it to Jiang Shao, causing the Shen family to lose one project after another without even realizing it.
"I just want to bankrupt the Shen family, and then let Shen Guoan experience what it's like to have to work for a boss just to make a living. Chu Mo, tell me, what's wrong with what I'm doing?"
Shen Chumo was surprised to learn that Lu Ziyin had such a story. The original plot didn't mention Lu Ziyin's past at all, focusing only on Lu Ziyin's various acts of love and help towards Yan Shanshan.
After Yan Shanshan joined the Gu family, many of the projects she completed bore Lu Ziyin's shadow, which is why Shen Chumo suspected that Lu Ziyin had been betraying the Shen family all along.
This probing led to the discovery of so many shocking revelations.
Lu Ziyin stepped forward, gripping Shen Chumo's shoulders tightly with both hands as if she had grasped a lifeline, her eyes filled with pleading, "Chumo, you can understand me, right?"
During the months Shen Chumo lived at the Shen family home, she could tell that although Shen Guoan and his wife weren't as close to Lu Ziyin as they were to Shen Lin, they were still taking good care of her.
However, looking at it from another angle, this might indeed just be Shen Guoan's way of compensating Lu Ziyin's parents for their deaths out of guilt. Only the parties involved can judge whether this is right or wrong.
Shen Chumo deliberately allowed herself to be kidnapped by Lu Ziyin for two reasons: first, to find out Lu Ziyin's true intentions; and second, to send Lu Ziyin to prison on charges of kidnapping, thus eliminating the last threat to the Shen family and completing her mission.
As for the feud between Lu Ziyin and the Shen family, as the saying goes, the one who tied the knot must untie it; only Shen Guoan can resolve it himself.
Shen Chumo stared intently at Lu Ziyin and said, "Lu Ziyin, you kidnapped me and locked me up like an animal. How do you expect me to understand you?"
A look of panic flashed in Lu Ziyin's eyes, and he hurriedly explained, "No, Chu Mo, I just... it's just because I love you so much."
Lu Ziyin looked at Shen Chumo with deep affection and said, "Chumo, you don't know, from the first moment I saw you, I fell deeply in love with you. You are like a goddess from heaven, gently flying into my heart."
Lu Ziyin's tone shifted abruptly, her face contorting with rage, filled with jealousy as she said, "But you never see me. No matter what I do, you never notice."
"You might even care about that brainless Shen Lin, but you don't care about me at all," Lu Ziyin said self-deprecatingly.
"And what's so great about that Gu Xiyan? Why are you with him?! Chu Mo, if you promise to break up with him, I'll unlock the chains and take you home, okay? Even if it's just a lie, Chu Mo, tell me, promise to break up with him, okay?!"
Shen Chumo looked at him indifferently, her eyes cold. "No, why should I give up someone who loves me to the point of death, and then be with someone like you..."
Shen Chumo's eyes revealed disdain, "You're with the person who has always hurt me, Lu Ziyin. You say you love me, but wasn't it you who tried to drug me and harm me before? Do you think that just because you had Yan Shanshan take the blame for you, this matter is over?"
