2907 You're Lying to Me

"Why would I lie to you about this? Lu Qi is dead. She was burned to death in a fire. The fire even reached a gas tank, causing an explosion. You can imagine how miserable Lu Qi's death was."

Xia Qingyang trembled. "No! Impossible! Gas tank? Heh!"

Xia Qingyang sneered. "This is such an outdated thing. Why would Lu Qi go to a place with gas tanks? You don't even have a script when you want to lie."

"I won't lie to you about this. This has caused a huge commotion out there; it's even on the social news. Lu Qi had been walking on the edge of the entertainment industry for many years and had not been on the trending searches since. However, because of this, this news became one of the trending searches.

"Actress Lu Qi died in a fire," said Lu Man.

"You guys are provided with newspapers, right? Just wait until you look at the newspaper or when you surf the web during a time you're allowed."

Lu Man spoke with certainty, seeming as though she was not afraid that Xia Qingyang would go and check.

Xia Qingyang was not so sure anymore.

"No… no…" Xia Qingyang shook her head continuously as she kept telling herself that.

"However, Lu Qi did not die in an accident but was murdered by someone," said Lu Man. "Do you know who killed her?"

"Stop talking, I don't believe you! I don't believe you! I won't believe your words!" Although Xia Qingyang said this, she still held the phone, not putting it down for even a moment.

Lu Man knew the true thoughts in her heart just by looking at her reactions.

"It's He Zhengbai. Lu Qi had no use for him anymore. You used entering prison as a condition to make He Zhengbai marry Lu Qi. However, Lu Qiyuan did not care about Lu Qi anymore. The He family could not gain any benefits from Lu Qi, so they began to despise the fact that Lu Qi took the position of He Zhengbai's wife, being an obstacle in He Zhengbai's future. It also became a reason they could not find another daughter of a rich family.

"So the He family members treated Lu Qi harshly, and He Zhengbai had been with Sun Jingfei outside for a long time. He Zhengbai told the public that he was single and was not married, publicly drawing a line between him and Lu Qi. In order to marry Sun Jingfei, he had to divorce Lu Qi.

"But Lu Qi was not easy to send away; obviously, she had to ask him for benefits. He Zhengbai was unwilling to give Lu Qi any benefits, so he decided to burn her to death. In the end, the fire even caused a gas tank to explode. The whole house exploded, and Lu Qi died in that house.

"Xia Qingyang, it's your good son-in-law who killed your daughter himself." Lu Man leaned forward towards the glass. "You sacrificed so much and entered jail just to let Lu Qi marry He Zhengbai. But you didn't expect that your actions would push Lu Qi into a pit of fire.

"If she had not married into the He family, Lu Qi wouldn't have been bullied so harshly, and she wouldn't have died in the end." Lu Man leaned back on the chair and relaxed. "However, don't worry, the harsh treatment that Lu Qi received from the He family would never be even a tenth of what I had experienced with the Lu family. So, actually, it's not a big deal. Think about what I experienced, then take out a tenth, then you would be pleased."

"You're lying to me, you're lying to me!" Xia Qingyang growled furiously.

"Heh!" Lu Man chuckled. "You don't believe me now, but just wait for tonight's newspapers."

The news from before had been suppressed all this while.

But today, He Zhengbai had also died.
