Chapter Eighty-Seven: Her death, a kind of liberation

    

'm not quite sure what's going on between you and Miss Jiang."He lifted his head to look at her, picked up the teacup, and took a sip."If you really cared about her, I haven't seen you give her a good...Zhao Yu frowned slightly, then relaxed quickly, "Your clothes are all dirty, I won't keep you, go back and deal with it.

Aunt Zhang, see the guests off. 。"Ms. Jiang, shall we go then" Aunt Zhang walked around to the back of the wheelchair and grabbed it 。Jiang Qingran looked at Zhao Yu with a complex expression, hummed in response, and Zhang Yi then pushed her out. 。Suddenly, dark clouds gathered in the azure sky. A low and heavy rumble of thunder echoed from south to north, followed by a torrential downpour of large raindrops. 。

A-wan lay on her side in bed, curled up into a ball, hugging herself tightly.

She looked at the gift box next to the pillow, her mind filled with only one thought—— She had to succeed! Even if He Hanchuan slept with her and didn't let go, she could leave some photographic evidence during their time together. She could blackmail him with photos or videos to get what she wanted! If it failed, He Hanchuan would definitely be furious and retaliate against her. He was always ruthless and heartless, who knew what he might do to her in the end... 。She died, and it was another kind of liberation... 。The moment the door creaked open, Xiang Wan almost jumped up at once, her eyes fixed on the doorway with utmost vigilance. 。When she saw that it was Zhao Yu, the hairs on her arms finally relaxed. "Mother," 。" "Yeah" 。“Zhao Yu put her right hand behind her back and walked to the bed before taking out the gift hidden there. “Tomorrow will be very busy arranging your birthday party, so here’s a gift for you first.” 。May our love last forever, through thick and thin, happiness, peace, and good health always! 。Thank you, aunt. 。"向晚 said" 。The gift wasn't wrapped in any fancy way, it was just a plain rectangular transparent glass box containing a beautifully shaped little crown studded with rhinestones. 。This crown was a gift her aunt promised her for her eighteenth birthday, saying she could wear it when she married He Hanchuan. 。But then things happened too suddenly, she didn't even have a chance to receive her stepmother's birthday gift before being broken leg and sent to prison. 。But I can't take... 。"Xiangwan placed the gift box in Zhao Yu's arms with both hands, lowering her eyes and saying, 'This belongs to the daughter-in-law of the He family, and I and Mr. He are absolutely impossible.'" 。" She used to hate it when people said she and He Hanchuan were impossible, but now, the one repeating that phrase over and over again is herself. It's really laughable. " 。Zhao Yu didn't accept it, "Who said that You are the daughter-in-law of the He family, this is for the daughter-in-law of the He family. If you aren't the daughter-in-law of the He family, then this is for you." 。Take it, or your mother-in-law will be angry. 。" Click 。At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and He Hanchuan walked in. 。The well-tailored suit accentuated his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs. There was a sense of restrained sensuality mixed with an aura of nobility. 。The transparent gift box in Huáng's hands still trembled rhythmically, the light reflecting off the glass made her face even paler. 。She licked her dry lips, got off the bed, and handed the gift box to He Hanchuan with both hands, "My mother said this is for you." 。"I wouldn't stoop to stealing a little trinket from you. Take it." 。He glanced at the small crown in the glass box, his eyes darkening slightly. He tilted his head slightly, his gaze falling on her short hair. 。Toward evening, she tiptoed towards Zhao Yu holding a gift box. "Auntie, General He doesn't want it, you should keep it for yourself first." 。When Miss Jiang and Mr. He get engaged, you can personally present the small crown to Miss Jiang. 。If she had taken off the little crown in front of He Hanchuan, he would probably think that she still harbored delusions of him. 。 "That's good too." 。"Zhao Yu took the gift box and said to He Hanchuan, “Hanchuan, is the dress ready” He Hanchuan nodded and lifted the three gift bags in his hand, "As you said, I had three limited edition dresses made." 。"

“Mmm” 。"Zhao Yu smiled, took the three gift bags, and handed them to Xiang Wan. "I don't know if your taste has changed, so I just let Han Chuan order a few more sets. You can pick one to wear tomorrow, or you can change three pieces tomorrow." 。“Thank you, aunt.” 。"向晚 took the gift bag without opening it, putting it directly onto the bed. Then she stood beside Zhao Yu, her body stiff and tense." 。Zhao Yu held a transparent glass box in her hand, curved the corner of her lips, and pulled He Hanchuan out, "You big man are here, Wanwan is embarrassed to change clothes, let's go first." 。She pulled the door open, waited for him to go out with her, then closed the door. 。"Tomorrow night at the hotel, I'm having a birthday party for Wanwan at the Mingzhu Hotel. Come too." 。Zhao Yu gave the transparent glass box to the maid beside her, asking her to put it in her room. 。He hesitated for a moment, then walked down the spiral staircase. "I don't have time" 。"As for the matters between you, Wanwan, and Qingran, I can stay out of it." 。But could you come to my birthday party tomorrow Zhao Yu rubbed her temples, standing on the steps and watching his back. 。He took the last step down, turned to face her, "What time does it end" "Eleven at night" 。"Zhao Yu said" 。He nodded and said as he turned towards the door, "Before it's over, I'll go." 。" and so on. 。"Zhao Yu called out to him, walked around in front of him, and tilted her head slightly to look up at her son who was half a head taller than her. 'Can we sit down and talk'"

"Talk about what" He Hanchuan turned around and walked to the sofa, sat down, his long legs crossed together 。The fruit on the tea table had been left out for a while and had already changed color. 。The maid brought up some new fruit and placed a cup of hot tea in front of each person before standing by. 。"You know very well that Qingran played a trick on Wanwan back then, why are you still treating her like this I've thought about it for two years and haven't figured it out. " 。Zhao Yu sipped her tea and asked. 。He lowered his lip and tapped the tea table lightly with his long fingers. "Mom, when did you become like Aunt Lin, always meddling in the younger generation's affairs" "If you don't want to say it, I won't force you" 。At the sound of "Auntie Lin", Zhao Yu frowned slightly. 。She drank several sips of tea before continuing, "Your marriage to Qingran involves so much. I understand that you followed your father and grandfather's wishes in marrying her..." 。He glanced away, his eyes dimming slightly. He tapped the table faster, but his voice remained calm. "Thank you, Mom," 。Don't say thank you yet. 。Zhao Yu let out a light chuckle, with a hint of self-deprecation, "I understand, but that doesn't mean I can accept it." 。Her lips curved down slightly, she suddenly smashed the teacup to the ground. But her well-maintained face still held a faint smile, "Kanchuan, do you know what it feels like to be related to someone who has interfered in another's marriage It's like swallowing a fly." 。"If you don't want to, I won't get engaged to her. 。"He crossed his legs, then flattened them on the ground. He leaned forward slightly, taking an aggressive stance, with elbows resting on his knees." 。Zhao Yu, "You canceling the engagement will only make your dad, your grandfather, and the people in the company unhappy" 。Your grandfather disliked you to begin with. If you do this, the children of your uncles and aunts get involved, I'm afraid you won't even be able to get 8% of the shares of the He Group. 。"Mom laid everything out for you today: I won't let my emotions affect your future, but I won't just stand by and watch the Jiang family mother and daughter get away with living so comfortably off of you and your dad. " 。Tomorrow evening's birthday party, you must come at six o'clock. 。The servant came over, tidied up the mess on the floor, and poured her a new cup of tea. 。"Let me go and save face for Xiangwan" He Hanchuan picked up his tea, brought it to his lips, didn't drink it, and put it back on the table. "By doing this, are you truly concerned about her, or are you using her" Zhao Yu looked at him with a complex expression, then got up, "I'll go see which one Xiangwan chose." 。As she reached the spiral staircase, she paused and turned to look at him, "Pearl Hotel, remember to be there tomorrow at six." 。He looked at her back, picked up a slice of apple and threw it into his mouth, then wiped his mouth with a napkin, got up and left. 。From the evening of September 27th to the daytime of September 28th, a total of only 24 hours, but for Xiang Wan, every minute and second in between was extraordinarily agonizing. 。She had a whole night of nightmares, one after another, endlessly repeating, never-ending. 。She was woken up three times, each time drenched in cold sweat. However, as soon as she lay down and fell asleep, the nightmares continued. 。When she woke up, her pajamas were soaked with cold sweat, her body was icy cold, and there were dark circles under her eyes. She looked very unwell. 。Please remember the book's first release domain: . 。Here is the translation of your provided text:y girl, would you" Gu Shan coquettishly softened her voice, pulling his arm and gently shaking it.The lights were dim, making it hard to see Gu Shan's expression, but the reflection of a sprig of orch...
