Mrs. Lu’s face turned pale, "What do you want to say?"

"Mom! You center everything around yourself, everything you do is for yourself! You’re too selfish! Have you ever loved anyone?"

Lu Jinxuan mercilessly questioned in a cold voice. "Mom, are you really going to do this? Your son just wants to be with the person he likes, why is it so difficult with you?"

Unexpectedly, these words hit Mrs. Lu’s sore spot.

"The girl you like yourself? What, you find it so hard to accept the one chosen for you by the family?"

"Yes!"

Lu Jinxuan answered definitively, with even a trace of hatred in his eyes.

He slowly, word by word, clearly said, "Mom, father wronged you, but Fei Xuan and I are on your side. However... after so many years, don’t you really know why father betrayed you?"

"Shut up!"

Mrs. Lu lost control, her voice sharp as she stopped her son, "Don’t say any more!"

Suddenly, pointing at Lu Jinxuan with vicious eyes, "You are my son! I can’t let you fail! You must be the best! I’ve worked so hard all these years, I absolutely cannot give up halfway!"

"Mom..."

Lu Jinxuan started to speak but was interrupted.

Mrs. Lu waved her hand, shouted sharply, "Someone! Drag him away for me!"

"Yes!"

...

In front, the flames reached the sky.

Yu Sangwan and Fu Xianlin were both stunned. Fu Xianlin put down his daughter, "What’s going on? Isn’t this the path leading to Taotao’s garden?"

"Dad!"

Yu Sangwan frowned slightly, a bad feeling in her heart.

Suddenly, she quickened her pace, rushing towards the flames. However, the fire was too big, and the pit formed by the blast was not small, making it impossible for her to continue forward.

"Taotao!"

Fu Xianlin rushed forward to hold his daughter, "Don’t be impulsive, let’s figure out the situation first!"

"Dad!" Yu Sangwan was extremely anxious, "Could something have happened to Jinxuan?"

"No, absolutely not!"

Although Fu Xianlin said that, he was also worried, took out his phone to make a call. Before he could dial it, a call came in.

It was from Lu Yusen.

"Hello, it’s Fu Xianlin..." Fu Xianlin hurriedly answered the phone, but his face became increasingly grim.

"Dad?" Yu Sangwan watched from the side, sensitively aware that the call was related to Lu Jinxuan, "Is it Jinxuan? What’s wrong with him?"

Fu Xianlin put away his phone, glanced at the sea of fire.

"Jinxuan... he’s in trouble..."

"..."

Yu Sangwan’s mind buzzed, suddenly turning around, rushing into the fire regardless. Crying out, "Jinxuan, Jinxuan, are you inside?"

"Taotao!"

Fu Xianlin hurriedly tried to stop her, but Yu Sangwan was emotionally out of control and not easy to hold back.

"Dad, let me go! Jinxuan got into trouble here!"

Yu Sangwan stomped her feet, speaking incoherently.

"You don’t know! Jinxuan jumped into the fire for me for the first time... If it weren’t for him, I would have already lost my life! I can’t leave him alone..."

"Taotao!"

Fu Xianlin loudly stopped his daughter, full of tenderness, "Jinxuan isn’t in there... he’s already been taken to the hospital!"

"Hospital..."

Yu Sangwan froze, suddenly stiff.

"Then... then how..."

She didn’t dare to ask smoothly, afraid the result would be bad.

"We’ll go to the hospital... huh?"

Yu Sangwan’s mind was empty, yet also seemed to be filled, unable to think properly for a moment. Holding her father’s hand, she took two unstable steps forward, nearly falling.

"Taotao!" Fu Xianlin, heart aching for the woman, simply carried her in his arms, "Don’t be afraid, Dad’s here... You and Jinxuan will never be separated again!"

"..." Yu Sangwan leaned close in her father’s embrace, nodding silently.

...

In the hospital, Lu Yusen and Mrs. Lu were arguing.

The discontent Lu Yusen had harbored against his wife for years finally reached its peak after both children were in trouble, raising his hand and harshly slapping her.

With a crisp ’slap’, Mrs. Lu stepped back several steps.

She held her face, looking at Lu Yusen in disbelief, "You hit me?"

"So what if I hit you?" Lu Yusen, furious, pointed at his wife with fingers trembling, "Listen, Helian Shuang, if something happens to the two children, our marriage ends here!"

"You..."

Helian Shuang was taken aback, sneered, "Again with this, you said the same when that whore and bastard went missing back then! You think this is just to scare people?"

"Scaring you?"

Lu Yusen sneered, "No, how would I dare? Who are you? You’re Helian Shuang! Who dares to do anything to you? I just didn’t expect that the two children would end up like this under your care! Don’t forget, their surname is Lu, not Helian!"

Mrs. Lu, aggrieved, spoke in a tearful, choked voice.

"Do you think I want this? I don’t want them to be in trouble either! But now, Jinxuan is not just the Lu family’s person... in this position, there are naturally many unavoidable dangers..."

"So..."

Lu Yusen frowned impatiently, interrupting her in questioning.

"Why must it be Jinxuan? Can’t he simply be the Lu family’s heir?"

"Lu family’s heir?" Helian Shuang retorted sarcastically, "Hmph! Sounds good, aren’t you still looking for Lu Yuxuan now? When that bastard returns, will there still be a place for him?"

Lu Yusen opened his mouth, only saying, "Helian Shuang, I’m too tired to explain to you anymore, pray! Pray my son and daughter are safe, otherwise, I will divorce you!"

With that, he left the lounge.

Helian Shuang clenched her fists, teeth gritting in hatred, "Lu Yusen, you just wait! My son will definitely walk the path I’ve paved for him!"

In the hospital’s long corridor, Fu Xianlin hurriedly brought Yu Sangwan.

"Dad, let me down!"

Yu Sangwan patted her father’s shoulder, Fu Xianlin nodded, put down his daughter but still held her hand. With the situation her daughter was in, pregnant, it was really dangerous.

"Jinxuan..."

Yu Sangwan walked forward, seeing Lu Yusen and Helian Shuang, who had all come from the lounge, waiting at the surgery room door. In the corner, there was also the distraught Tang Yueze, Ji Qing accompanying him.

Yu Sangwan froze, looking at Lu Yusen and Helian Shuang, not knowing what to call them.

But Helian Shuang looked at Yu Sangwan, her eyes reddened, stepped forward to hold her hand, "Child, you’re Taotao, aren’t you?"

"..."

Yu Sangwan wasn’t used to Mrs. Lu like this, gently nodded, "Mrs. Lu, Jinxuan..."

"Ah..." Mrs. Lu sighed lightly, tearfully turned away without saying anything further.

Seeing her like this, Yu Sangwan’s heart sank deep... if not for the very bad situation, why would Mrs. Lu be like this?

"Mrs. Lu..." Yu Sangwan swallowed, forced herself to be strong, "How is Jinxuan?"

Mrs. Lu still didn’t speak, just took out something from her pocket, handed it to her, "Here... this is what Jinxuan was holding onto all the time..."
