With My Profound Love, I Offer to the Years

Chapter 33: What face is left to live in this world

Chapter 33

Shen Nian went to the company and got the documents Li Nan needed. When she came out of the company, she was just about to go to Li Nan’s house to deliver the things.

“Is this the right place?”

“It should be.”

“Why do I feel like no one’s here?”

“Who knows, let me take another look...”

Hearing the women talking, Shen Nian subconsciously glanced over and saw five or six women standing not far away, pointing at Lingrui Group.

The youngest of the women looked to be in her thirties.

Seemingly aware of Shen Nian’s gaze, one of them looked up and met her eyes. It was this glance that made Shen Nian’s pupils suddenly shrink.

The woman who saw Shen Nian also widened her eyes in shock. The next second, she yelled in her loud voice, “That’s right, it’s her! I saw that little slut!”

Her words immediately made the other women look over. Seeing Shen Nian’s face, they all revealed furious expressions and rushed over to surround Shen Nian.

“You little slut, I’ve finally caught you!”

“You’re so young yet so vicious, how dare you let my husband die!”

“Little vixen, who knows if it was you and that dead girl who seduced my son!”

The few women swarmed over aggressively.

Of them, the two youngest women Shen Nian recognized—one was Wang Yong’s wife, the other was Yang Hao’s wife.

Wang Yong and Yang Hao were the two drunkards from back then.

Shen Nian took a few steps back, but they were overbearing and arrogant.

“Little slut, I'm warning you to withdraw the lawsuit immediately! If my son goes to jail, you won't get away with it either!”

“Look at you, with the face of a sly fox. It must have been you who seduced my son-in-law!”

“I heard the one who died was your good friend! Now that she’s dead, what face do you have left to live in this world? Why don't you just die with her!”

Shen Nian had been drinking and her mind was still clear, but her steps were a bit unsteady. She was surrounded by them, with enlarged, sour and vicious faces right in front of her.

They used the most vicious language in the world to insult her.

【What face do you have left to live in this world?】

【Why don't you just die!】

【What face do you have left...Why don't you just die...】

【Die, just die...】

“......” Shen Nian’s mind buzzed. These few sentences were like on loop playback, echoing in her ears again and again.

Gradually, even Shen Nian herself was brainwashed.

Why doesn’t she just die...

Now that Ling Rui is dead, what face does she have left to live in this world?

Just die...

Die...

“Ah!”

Suddenly hearing a scream, the next moment Shen Nian was pulled into a warm embrace.

“......” Shen Nian was like a doll without senses, staring blankly ahead, with only those words echoing in her mind.

With knitted brows, Lu Lingchuan looked at Shen Nian in his arms: “Shen Nian, Shen Nian!”

“......” She was like a fool.

Seeing Lu Lingchuan, those arrogant women became even more brazen: “It’s you!”

Of course they recognized Lu Lingchuan. It was him who wanted their husbands, their sons, their sons-in-law to die—the Lu family man.

“Ah!” They rushed forward with outstretched long fingernails.

“Shen Nian, Shen Nian!” Lu Lingchuan shook Shen Nian forcefully. She was like a lifeless puppet.

Raising his head, he stared fiercely at the women. Without mercy, he kicked the middle-aged woman in the stomach.

“Ah!” The woman fell to the ground in an ungraceful manner, clutching her stomach and screaming loudly.

Lu Lingchuan had used his full strength in that kick.

The one kicked was one woman’s wife. They were so arrogant partly because they had greater numbers, and partly because many of them were older.

Other than the two youngest who were Wang Yong and Yang Hao’s wives, the other four were their mothers and mothers-in-law, all in their fifties or sixties. They didn’t expect him to actually take action.

If he dared make a move, they would just fall to the ground and fiercely retaliate!

That was what they had thought, but unexpectedly, Lu Lingchuan really dared to act, and acted so heavily at that.

They were all cowards who bullied the meek and feared the strong. After that kick, they instantly didn’t dare be arrogant anymore.

The four older women were badly frightened, while Yang Hao’s wife stared blankly at Lu Lingchuan, stunned silly.

“You, you actually dare to hit people! We’re calling the police!”

“......” Lu Lingchuan stared at them with a face full of gloom. His cold, deep-set eyes were covered in a layer of darkness, sending chills down people's spines.

The air pressure around them had unknowingly sunk. Holding Shen Nian, Lu Lingchuan spoke coldly.

“That works out just fine, none of you can escape!”

..........................................

Everyone went to the police station. Lu Lingchuan explained the grievances between them. Upon learning they already had an ongoing lawsuit, the police immediately pulled up the surveillance footage. It was clear the women had come to confront them first.

They were first detained, then their other family members were notified to bail them out, while Lu Lingchuan finished giving his statement then left with Shen Nian.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Shen Nian was exceptionally silent the whole time, not saying a single word from start to finish.

Lu Lingchuan sensed that something was off with Shen Nian. With one hand on the steering wheel, he reached out his other hand to grasp the back of her hand.

“Don’t be afraid.”

I’m here.

Feeling the unfamiliar warmth on the back of her hand, Shen Nian’s entire body shuddered.

It was June, and the temperature had already risen, yet Shen Nian’s hands were inexplicably ice-cold.

Lu Lingchuan was also chilled by her icy hands. Just as he was about to say something, Shen Nian silently retracted her hand, curling up and closing her eyes.

She had woken up very early today, visited Ling Rui, drank so much alcohol, and just experienced the shoving. She was tired.

Seeing that she had fallen asleep, Lu Lingchuan didn’t say anything more.

He was still driving.

The entire ride was exceptionally quiet, with not a hint of sound in the car.

Lu Lingchuan drove to the residential area, directly entering the underground parking garage and parking in his own spot.

Shen Nian still hadn’t woken up even when he parked.

After turning off the ignition, Lu Lingchuan didn’t immediately open the door, but stared at the passenger seat instead.

Beside him, Shen Nian’s head leaned against the window. Head bowed, she looked to be fast asleep.

Just staring quietly like this for over a minute, Lu Lingchuan finally opened the door and got out of the car. He then walked around to the passenger side, carefully opened the door, one hand steadying her as he bent down to scoop her up princess-style.

His motions were very gentle throughout, clearly trying not to wake Shen Nian.

Using his leg to close the car door, Lu Lingchuan carried Shen Nian to the elevator.

Back home, he placed Shen Nian on the bed.

She seemed to be having a nightmare, brows furiously knitted, face very unsettled.

Lu Lingchuan reached out, wanting to smooth her creased brows, but it didn’t work.

Crouching by the bedside, stroking her soft hair, Lu Lingchuan quietly watched her like this.

“Buzz——”

The phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Lu Lingchuan reflexively muffled the phone, glancing at Shen Nian before getting up and walking out of the bedroom to take the call out on the balcony.
