Chapter 890: The Last Bargaining Chip (2)

Humans were sometimes very predictable. When details were not pointed out to them, they would selectively ignore them. But when someone did point those details out, those things that they had ignored in the beginning would gradually return to their minds, and they would be grow obsessed to those minute details.

Even if some things were not that exaggerated, they would unconsciously magnify them. Lu Xiangtian was in a similar state now.

When Lu Shu refused to admit that she had anything to do with this scam, Lu Xiangtian finally lost his patience and raised the gun in his hand again.

Lu Shu’s face turned pale, but she still refused to change her mind. “It’s useless no matter how much you force me. I don’t know about this, but I just don’t know. Even if you shoot me, I’ll…”

“Of course I know that you’re not afraid of me shooting you. You’ll die later, or you’ll die sooner. It’s the same outcome. But don’t you care about this man at all?” Lu Xiangtian turned the gun in his hand. He aimed it at Li Yan’s head.

Lu Shu’s eyes widened to the extreme, and even Li Yan was shocked.

“No, no… you can’t do this. If you have something to do, do it to me. Don’t hurt him!”

Lu Xiangtian smiled coldly. “What’s the point of doing it to you? You’re not even afraid of me shooting you, so what’s there to be afraid of? This man is what you care about the most now, right? Back then, you didn’t care about me stopping you, and you wanted to marry this man no matter what. What about now? Do you want to tell me what you know and what I’m interested in hearing, or do you want to watch me blow his head off with a single shot?”

Lu Shu’s face was as pale as a sheet, but she had no choice but to force herself to calm down. Her frightened eyes darted back and forth between Lu Xiangtian and Li Yan a few times, as if she had made up her mind, she said in a hoarse voice, “If you kill Brother Yan, I’ll never tell you who took the blood sample that year!”

Lu Xiangtian’s eyes lit up when he heard Lu Shu’s words, and his gaze on Lu Shu suddenly became a little heated. “You really do know.”

“That’s right, I do. I admit that I know all the things you just said, and I also admit that I did deliberately change the blood sample that year. I also know who your biological daughter is. Are you satisfied now?”

Lu Xiangtian’s heart trembled when he heard Lu Shu’s words. “Who… Is she? Tell me, who is my daughter? Where is she now? If you don’t tell me, I’ll shoot this guy in the head.”

“Do you think I’m stupid?” Lu Shu suddenly raised her head and glanced at Lu Xiangtian, her face full of ridicule, “Your daughter is the only card I have. If I tell you, will I still have a way to live? Will Brother Yan still have a way to live?”

“If you don’t tell me, you won’t have a way to live either!”

“No, if I don’t tell you, we still have a chance to survive.” Lu Shu clenched her hands tightly and forced herself to meet Lu Xiangtian’s fierce gaze. She sneered, “It doesn’t matter. You can shoot. You can shoot. If you kill Brother Yan, I’ll be buried with him immediately. I can guarantee that I’m the only one in this world who knows who your daughter is. I’m the only one who knows where your daughter is. If you shoot and kill Brother Yan, I can guarantee that you’ll never be able to find your daughter again in this lifetime. You’ll never be able to recognize your daughter!”

“You!” Lu Xiangtian’s expression darkened. This was the first time someone had dared to speak to him like this after so many years in the underworld. Those who had dared to speak to him like this before had basically all gone to Hell.

Seeing that Lu Xiangtian was about to lose control of his emotions, the butler, who had been watching from the side, finally could not help but shout, “Sir…”

Lu Xiangtian’s entire body trembled, and his raging anger was instantly controlled. His sharp eyes stared at Lu Shu, as if he was a ferocious beast staring at its prey, dangerous and vicious.

Lu Shu felt a chill run down her spine, but she also knew that this was her only chance of survival. If she were to let go because she was too afraid… then her life and Li Yan’s life could only end here.

“You’re threatening me.”

Lu Shu gritted her teeth. She confessed, “That’s right, I’m threatening you. Mr. Lu, will you accept my threat? I can guarantee that I’m the only person in this world who knows the truth now. If you kill me, no one will be able to tell you anything about your daughter…”

Lu Shu appeared to have steeled herself. Lu Xiangtian stared at her for a long while. Although he had a feeling that he could start with Zhao Youlin and find out who the owner of that necklace was, no one could guarantee that… that person was really his daughter.

For ten years, this woman had leeched off him. He did not trust anyone.

Lu Xiangtian really wanted to put a bullet in Lu Shu just like that, but he also knew that the most important thing now was to find the person who matched up with his paternity test.

It was not that Lu Xiangtian did not think that Lu Shu had tampered with his blood sample, but he had investigated Lu Shu before. She was an orphan and did not have any family in this world. If it were not for his daughter… she would not have been able to match him up with anyone else’s blood sample. Moreover, there were not many people who had handled their blood sample at that time, and most of them were people who could be trusted. The most likely problem was Lu Shu’s blood sample, and it was before she handed it over to him.

Lu Shu claimed that she was the only person in this world who knew the whereabouts of his biological daughter. If he killed her, he would not be able to find her for the rest of his life. Although Lu Xiangtian did not really believe her… he could not let that slim chance be a possibility.

“What do you want?” Lu Xiangtian gritted his teeth and asked Lu Shu’s purpose.

Lu Shu frowned, she looked at him with a determined expression and said, “I don’t want anything. I just want to survive and live with Brother Yan. You must be so angry that you want to kill the two of us right now, right? I don’t want much. It’s just your daughter for our lives. As long as we’re safe, I’ll tell you where your daughter is.”

Lu Shu’s words were not only directed at Lu Xiangtian, but also at Zhao Youlin, who was standing outside. Why was Lu Shu so sure? If her guess was correct, she was already…

Was she wrong, or was Lu Shu deliberately mystifying things so that she could find a chance to survive? If it was the latter, then… a cold light flashed in Zhao Youlin’s eyes.

Lu Xiangtian’s face was so gloomy that it could have blotted out the sun. A moment later, he let out a silly laugh and said coldly, “You want me to let you and your man go.”

Lu Shu pursed her lips and did not say anything. It was a tacit agreement.

Lu Xiangtian immediately laughed even more mockingly and shouted without thinking, “Impossible.”
