Chapter 1774: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (17)

The current Long Ming similarly could not remember what had happened between him and Lou Lan.

But when he heard this woman’s name, a sense of disgust that could not be ignored spread from the bottom of his heart.

Especially this time, she had worked behind the scenes to make the old lady fall into a coma.

Seeing the coldness in Long Ming’s eyes, Xiao Ying seemed to see through his thoughts and asked softly, “Are you planning to do something to Lou Lan?”

“She shouldn’t have plotted against Granny.”

“How do you plan to deal with her?”

“Toy with her slowly.” He spat out the words casually, but it made her shiver.

…

Lou Lan had been observing the interactions between Long Ming and Xiao Ying.

Originally, she could still contact Liu Yiyi, who had told her that Long Ming believed her.

But it had been two days and Liu Yiyi seemed to have disappeared. She did not answer her calls and no one knew where she had gone.

Could Long Ming found out something?

Lou Lan did not want to think too much at home, so she invited Li Yuan to go to the clubhouse with several other socialites.

Lou Lan drove personally.

When she passed by a corner, her sports car accidentally brushed against a black sedan.

The black sedan was a limited edition Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Lou Lan had grown up in a prestigious family, so she naturally knew about such luxury goods.

The Phantom was long and in a retro style. It was handmade and a limited edition model. She had heard that a mysterious figure had purchased it.

She had not expected to see this luxurious car here.

The person sitting inside must be rich!

Lou Lan got out of the sports car and walked toward the luxurious car.

The driver got out of the car and looked at Lou Lan. “Madam, I’m sorry. We bumped into your car.”

Lou Lan looked at the driver in uniform. He was handsome and she could not help being curious. If the driver was so charismatic, the owner of the car must be even more charming!

The driver handed her a business card. “Madam, our Young Master still has to attend an important meeting. This is my business card. Send me the repair fee and I’ll reimburse you.”

Lou Lan looked toward the luxurious car. At this moment, the window of the luxurious car was lowered and a stern face appeared. The man was wearing dark sunglasses, so Lou Lan could not see his face clearly.

However, she could feel his eyes staring at her through the sunglasses. His gaze was cold and sharp. Lou Lan’s heart skipped a beat.

The man’s appearance charmed Lou Lan. He was mature and handsome, his aura cold and strong.

For some reason, Lou Lan said, “Why would I want a driver’s name card?” She raised her hand and pointed at the man in the back seat. “I want his.”

“This…” The driver was in a difficult position.

The man’s low voice sounded like a cello. “Give it to her.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

…

At the Duke’s palace.

The Duke and Duchess had already found out about Liu Yiyi pushing the old lady into the lake.

The Duke’s wife was extremely disappointed with Liu Yiyi. Since she did something illegal, she would have to bear the legal responsibility. She felt that the Duke should not bail her out.

However, the Duke doted on his daughter. He had waited for so many years and had finally found out that his daughter was still alive. How could he watch her suffer and go to jail?

As such, the couple got into a fierce argument.

The Duke’s wife’s blood pressure was high to begin with. When they were arguing nonstop, her blood pressure rose so quickly that she fell to the ground.

The Duke was scared out of his wits.

Fortunately, the Duchess was saved in time and her life was not in danger.

But when she woke up, something in her had changed.

From time to time, she would get angry at the Duke or be in a daze. Even her memory had worsened.

The doctor said that the Duke’s wife had been agitated and might even have developed mental problems. He instructed her to rest well and not be too agitated.

…

The Duke went to the detention center to visit Liu Yiyi.

Initially, he had wanted to follow his wife’s suggestion and let Liu Yiyi be punished by the law.

However, he had not expected Liu Yiyi to look so frail and weak after being detained for a few days. Her forehead was also injured and she looked extremely weak and pitiful.

The Duke doted on his wife and daughter very much. He only wanted his family to live happily together. But now, that had become a luxury for him.

After Liu Yiyi saw the Duke, she did not cry. She only said that she had done something wrong and regretted it. Because she saw that the old lady had fallen for Xiao Ying, she was afraid that her family would be snatched away by Xiao Ying. That was why she had done something wrong.

After the Duke came out of the detention center, he headed to the palace.

When Xiao Ying found out that the Duke was here, she hurriedly came out of her room.

When she arrived at the living room, she saw the Duke coming in from outside. Xiao Ying called out, “Dad.”

The Duke glanced at Xiao Ying and nodded lightly. Without saying anything, he walked past her and went upstairs.

Seeing the redness in the Duke’s eyes and his cold attitude, Xiao Ying felt slightly disappointed.

The Duke should know what Liu Yiyi had done. Had he come to the palace to plead for Liu Yiyi?

The butler led the Duke to the study on the second floor.

After getting Long Ming’s permission, the Duke walked in.

After the Duke sat down, he did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point. “Your Majesty, Yiyi made a mistake in a moment of confusion. I hope you can give her a chance to turn over a new leaf. I will find the best doctor to treat the old lady, but please be magnanimous and let her off.”

Long Ming narrowed his deep eyes. “Uncle Long, that’s not how you dote on your daughter.”

In other words, he did not agree to let her go.

The Duke had already expected Long Ming’s attitude and his face was expressionless. “Ah Ming, you probably don’t remember asking us to accept Xiao Ying as our daughter to let her have a good status.”

“If word gets out about that, will the two of you still be allowed together? I only have one request now, and that is to let my daughter be safe. I will find the best doctor to treat the old lady, and I will also send Yiyi abroad to study so she will never appear in front of you again.”

Long Ming’s clenched his fist tightly.

Was the Duke using Xiao Ying’s identity to threaten him?

…

Xiao Ying had brought tea up for the Duke and happened to hear what he had said as she walked to the door of the study.

The teacup in her hand almost dropped to the ground.

She had never thought that the Duke would use her identity to threaten Long Ming for Liu Yiyi;s sake!

But on second thought, it was reasonable.

After all, Liu Yiyi was the daughter of the Duke. How could the Duke watch her go to jail?

However, Xiao Ying was a little disappointed that the Duke, who could not differentiate between right and wrong, was protecting his daughter.

The granny was a very important person to Long Ming. She would not let Long Ming be forced to agree to let Liu Yiyi off because of her!

She would rather not marry into the royal family!
