Chapter 663 Human Demon

Susu stared at him coldly, asking, "Why do you want to see me again?"

"Don't you want to see me?" Lü Yuanhong said with a smile, "Your husband Qin Tianyi's life and death are all in my hands."

Susu clenched her fists secretly and said, "Do you think everyone else is a fool, believing your slander against him!"

Lü Yuanhong smiled even more triumphantly, "But President Qin is really something. Since he didn't die then, he should have recovered properly. He actually ran to be my subordinate without caring about being disfigured. Oh my, it's truly... reckless. Does he think it's that easy to be my subordinate? Without a few lives on his hands, how can he be worthy of being my subordinate?"

"Do you have any humanity left?" Susu steadied her emotions and said, "Tianyi is not like you. Even if he wants to find evidence of your crimes, he won't kill people against his conscience."

"Everyone wants to achieve their goals, doesn't he? To achieve his goals, he could ruin himself like that, let alone kill a few people," Lü Yuanhong said with amusement. "Aren't those undercover agents all acting in the name of justice, using deception to obtain evidence? What conscience is there to speak of?"

"You're talking nonsense! Tianyi didn't kill anyone, he has his bottom line!" Susu was still angered by his sophistry.

Lü Yuanhong glanced at Su Kangxi and said with a smile, "It's useless for us to argue about this. The police rely on evidence, don't they? Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, the police will investigate, right?"

Su Kangxi did not respond to him, his entire face remaining like a slab of iron.

"If you want to see me just to slander my husband, then I will take my leave," Susu said, preparing to get up and leave.

"Wait." Lü Yuanhong's tone was like a command. He raised a few pages of paper and said, "Where did you get these few pages? They really look like her handwriting, but who knows if the Shu family forged them?"

Susu knew he was still unwilling to give up because of this. She took out the entire diary from her bag, held it upright, and flipped through a few pages for him to see. "Wen Shuman has always had the habit of writing a diary, and the few pages in your hand were torn from this. Would the Shu family forge an entire diary for you? Do you think you are that important in the eyes of the Shu family?"

Lü Yuanhong stared directly at the diary in her hand and said nervously, "Give me the whole book, give it to me!"

The diary was thick and could not be passed through the gap of the iron bars. Su Kangxi signaled a prison guard to open the iron bars and take it inside.

Lü Yuanhong took the diary and hurriedly opened the first page, then kept flipping backward. Indeed, a few pages were missing in the middle. He matched the papers in his hand to the missing spots, and they fit perfectly. It seemed Gu Susu was not lying.

He felt his last hope shattered.

He suddenly stopped looking at the diary and grabbed his hair with both hands, "I was wrong, it was all wrong?"

Susu then took out an old necklace from her bag, with a heart-shaped pendant, and dangled it before Lü Yuanhong's eyes.

"If you still don't believe me, this can prove it."

As soon as Lü Yuanhong saw the pendant, he recognized it. Wen Shuman used to love this necklace the most, and he always saw her wearing it around her neck when he was a child.

Every time she held him, the pendant would occasionally brush against his cheek, cool and smooth, carrying her pleasant scent – the scent of his mother.

Before he could speak, Susu passed the necklace to him through the gap.

He immediately clutched the necklace in his hand, unwilling to let go even when the edge of the pendant pricked his palm.

Susu said with a cold smile, "The answer is in that heart-shaped pendant. You'll understand when you open it."

Lü Yuanhong hurriedly opened the heart-shaped pendant. Inside was a perfectly cut old photograph.

Wen Shuman looked very young, holding the month-old Lü Yuanhong with eyes full of affection.

This black and white photo had always been inlaid in the heart-shaped pendant and had never been replaced, so it had almost fused together, making it impossible to pry open.

Lü Yuanhong's hand holding the pendant began to shake violently, his face turning deathly pale. "No, no... Why would she put my photo in there? She already abandoned me as her son. Her favorite child was Shu Zhongze, it was Shu Zhongze!"

Susu said faintly, "Take a look at the end of the diary. There's a long letter that Wen Shuman left for you. Shu Zhongze has always refused to admit this fact and didn't want you to see this letter. I pleaded with him, and then he gave me this letter. In fact, when I first saw you today, I was still hesitating whether to give you this letter..."

Before she could finish, Lü Yuanhong had already turned to the last page of the diary and picked up the letter. His hands trembled as he tried to open it but dared not.

Susu had not read the content of the letter, but she could feel Wen Shuman's deep maternal love and overwhelming guilt towards Lü Yuanhong throughout her life. She hadn't wanted this.

But Wen Shuman, in her lifetime, never dreamed that her most beloved and missed son had already turned into a demon.

If Wen Shuman's spirit could see, she hoped it would understand everything she had done today.

Susu collected her thoughts, stood up, and said to Lü Yuanhong, "I don't know the content of this letter. You can read it slowly. Please return the diary to me."

Lü Yuanhong held the letter in one hand and the diary tightly in the other, refusing to let go.

Su Kangxi signaled the prison guard to go in and forcibly took the diary from his hand.

Lü Yuanhong also stood up abruptly and lunged at the prison guard, trying to snatch the diary back, shouting, "Give it to me... give it to me!"

The prison guard immediately pointed his baton at him, "What are you doing? Sit down! If you don't sit down, I'll send you to solitary confinement!"

Su Kangxi also roared at him from outside the cell, "Lü Yuanhong, behave yourself. This is not your home, it's a detention center!"

But Lü Yuanhong seemed not to hear their warnings, his sole focus on snatching the diary from the prison guard. Seeing that his warning was useless, the prison guard directly struck his shoulder with the baton.

He recoiled as if shocked, and Susu said coldly, "I gave you the pages in the diary that concern you. The rest has nothing to do with you..."

"How can it not be related? I saw mentions of Jia Nanfang later. Her death is related to Jia Nanfang, it wasn't an accident!" Lü Yuanhong also roared at Susu.

Susu was slightly startled. She had heard from Shu Zhongze that Wen Shuman and his then-fiancée had both died in a car accident.

Could that car accident not have been an accident?

"Jia Nanfang was your person from the very beginning. If Wen Shuman's death is related to her, then you were the one who ordered it." Susu stared at him in disbelief, "I can't believe you didn't even spare your own mother. And she always thought of you the most!"

Lü Yuanhong vehemently denied, "I never ordered her to harm Wen Shuman. She acted on her own initiative and kept it from me initially. That's why I always thought, thought my mother died in an accident. I only wanted to keep the diary to see what happened at the time!"
