My sister regretted sending me to the correctional facility.

Xu Rou's words left me speechless.

When did I start liking men?

My sexual orientation has always been perfectly normal, okay?

However, I noticed that Xu Rou seemed a bit too smug.

She seemed to be on the verge of victory.

Otherwise, why would Xu Rou say such a thing?

I won't refute Xu Rou.

Instead, he quietly watched Xu Rou.

People only reveal their deepest secrets when they are overjoyed.

Xu Rou was in this state at that moment.

Xu Rou stared at me with an air of queenly arrogance.

"However, Lu Yi, although you are very smart..."

"But cleverness can backfire."

I stared at Xu Rou, a curious smile suddenly appearing on my lips.

"Oh, so you're saying I'm too clever for my own good?"

"What makes you say that?"

"How did I let my own cleverness lead me astray?"

Seeing my expression, Xu Rou's smile became even more sarcastic, filled with deep contempt for me.

"Of course, it's just your own assumption that you've seen through all the mysteries."

"You think you've seen through all my plans and arrangements."

I gave a cold smile, stared at her, and asked calmly.

"So, your suicide attempt was something you meticulously planned?"

"Correct."

This time, Xu Rou nodded frankly, admitting it!

But I still have some doubts.

He then asked, "Xu Rou, you're willing to gamble with hanging yourself, how can you be so sure I'll come to save you?"

"If I hadn't come to save you, wouldn't you have just hanged yourself here and become a miserable hanged ghost?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Rou subconsciously touched her neck.

Perhaps the memory of being strangled is still very vivid.

It made her eyes gradually turn frosty.

Xu Rou's lips curled up in a smile.

"Of course, I've always been a gambler."

"I've gambled on countless things in my life, so what's this one?"

"You ask me why I'm so sure you'll come to save me?"

"Clearly, based on my understanding of you, even if you have a grudge against me, you would still come to save me if you saw that I was about to die!"

I took a deep breath. Xu Rou is really scary.

We only got to know each other for a few short days.

She can see right through me.

Xu Rou continued, "That's only one reason. Your personality means you're destined for mediocrity."

"But if you are a husband and a father, I think you are definitely a very qualified man."

"Secondly, do you really think I would make a gamble without any backup plan?"

I looked at Xu Rou's amused smile.

Suddenly, something occurred to me.

Then his expression changed slightly: "So, you actually conspired with the nanny or maid all along!"

"At crucial moments, they will scream to create the illusion that they have discovered you hanging yourself."

"So that it will attract my attention?"

After I finished speaking, Xu Rou's smile grew even wider.

She doesn't actively admit it.

However, her reaction and attitude have basically confirmed this!

My heart sank slightly.

This is a detail I really didn't expect!

Xu Rou looked at me as I lowered my head to think.

She smiled dismissively: "Lu Yi, you don't really think that just because I argue with the nanny or maid, you can tell that I have a bad relationship with them?"

I looked up at her again, a smile on my lips.

Then he nodded in agreement: "Yes! These nannies and maids have been with you for who knows how many years."

"We know each other's temperaments perfectly well, we understand them perfectly well!"

"They probably even know that one of your body hairs is in the wrong direction!"

"So how could they possibly step on your landmines?"

At that moment, I was thinking to myself.

Looking back now, Xu Rou's argument with the nanny and maid was indeed laughable and completely untenable!

If they were to argue and cause a huge scene.

Even nannies and maids are considering quitting.

Then they must have resigned and left long ago.

Instead of accumulating it until today.

The conflict, which was not resolved in the past, has now happened in my present situation.

This already speaks volumes!

After I figured it out, I shook my head and gave a cold laugh.

"Xu Rou, you're really something."

"Even this, you're trying to scheme against me."

Xu Rou smiled faintly: "Lu Yi, that's why I say you're too clever for your own good."

"With your intelligence, you should have thought of this long ago."

"But your compassionate and soft-hearted nature means you are destined to be repeatedly deceived by women."

"From Gu Yao to Lin Xia, and now to me, I might be deceived by Xiao Ningran someday..."

The moment Xu Rou uttered the names of these women.

The smile on my face vanished abruptly.

Xu Rou's words struck a nerve with a sensitive topic within me.

"What do you mean?"

My gaze immediately turned cold. "You investigated me?"

Xu Rou smiled faintly.

"Don't overreact. These days, investigating someone is a piece of cake."

"Just in the last few days, I learned a little about your past."

"I never imagined your past was so tragic, which only highlights your current success."

"In a sense, we were once the same kind of unfortunate people."

I scoffed, "Who's like you?"

Xu Rou heard my extremely harsh tone.

She wasn't angry, but calmly continued, "Lu Yi, I consulted a fortune teller. He said you're destined to have many romantic encounters and be repeatedly deceived by women throughout your life."

I took a deep breath, but remained silent, only staring coldly at Xu Rou.

Xu Rou continued, "I'll say it again, you need to be careful around women."

"Gu Yao deceived you, Lin Xia betrayed you, and now, due to various reasons, you have married Xiao Ningran by mistake."

"But I know that your marriage was just a sham to help Xiao Ningran seize the family fortune."

"Although I don't understand what benefits Xiao Ningran promised you that made you help her so recklessly."

"However, I have a way here that will allow you to truly take control of your own destiny!"

real.......

Take control of your own destiny...

Is that a solution?

I listened to Xu Rou's words, which were extremely seductive.

It's impossible for me to say I don't want to listen anymore.

I was also really eager to know what Xu Rou's method was.

Even though I knew in my heart that I was walking step by step into the trap set by Xu Rou.

But I still can't help wanting to know what this method is.

So I asked, "What's the solution?"

Xu Rou smiled slightly, walked up to me, got close to me, and whispered in my ear.

"The solution is naturally..."

"You will personally take over everything in the Xiao family!"
