Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 75

Chapter 75: Chapter 75 Good Wife (Seeking to Follow with a Second Update)

Han Lu, who had been squinting his eyes and enjoying the tenderness of his beauty, slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the woman in the red dress with a sly smile.

"Madam Du, why are you so interested in news about the Silver Fox?"

The woman in the red dress was none other than Madam Du Jiangbo, Li Yan’s elder sister, Li Yu.

Li Yu froze for a moment, then forced a smile and said:

"I’ve always heard that the Silver Fox’s fur is exceptionally smooth and soft, even finer than the finest silk. I was simply curious~~"

She clung to Han Lu’s thick arm, acting coy.

Han Lu sneered and roughly threw her off. Li Yu’s delicate arm struck the side of the carriage wall, her face twisted in pain, and an expression of sorrow and fear emerged.

"Lord Han, you..."

Han Lu turned around, gripping Li Yu’s chin with his massive hand and pinching forcefully, ignoring her look of suffering. He sneered coldly:

"You aren’t curious about the Silver Fox’s fur. You want to find out about the killer who murdered your dead brother, don’t you?"

"Li Yu, you’ve got some nerve! Using me like this? So, that’s why you schemed your way into my bed! How amusing! What’s next? If it turns out my Black Sand Gang killed your brother, you think you’d come for me, Lord Han?"

Han Lu’s grip on her chin tightened, causing Li Yu’s face to turn pale as she struggled to breathe, a suffocating pressure enveloping her.

She knew her little ploy had deeply displeased Han Lu.

Li Yu hurriedly begged, her voice choked with tears:

"Lord Han... I—I’d never have such thoughts. I only seek the truth—not to trouble you over such minor matters."

"If... if Lord Han doesn’t believe me, then feel free to crush me to death."

Li Yu closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks uncontrollably, her charming face tinged with an air of pity.

"You truly believe I couldn’t kill you?" Han Lu asked coldly.

Li Yu kept her eyes shut, letting tears fall, her head tilted as if prepared to meet her death.

Suddenly.

Han Lu’s anger vanished, replaced by laughter.

"My dear Yu’er, how could I bear to do such a thing to you? You’re my precious darling—far better than those vulgar women at Spring Wind Building. Come, let me see if I hurt you just now."

Li Yu couldn’t help but shudder at the sudden change in demeanor, a chill creeping into her heart.

She forced a smile and coyly replied:

"Lord Han, I knew you’d treat me best. Yu’er truly didn’t mean to deceive you..."

Han Lu waved his hand dismissively: _{freёweɓnovel.com}

"Don’t bring up the past anymore. In the future, handle things with me directly. I hate going in circles. If anyone else had pulled a stunt like you did just now, they’d already be dead from a single slap!"

Li Yu nodded repeatedly, obediently leaning against Han Lu and softly saying:

"Yu’er understands... Then..."

Han Lu patted Li Yu’s back and slowly continued:

"I looked into it. Last year, some brothers from the gang went into the mountains to hunt the Silver Fox but were unsuccessful. As for your brother, they said they never crossed paths with him."

Li Yu’s spirits lifted.

"This... so was my brother killed by someone else then?"

Han Lu replied nonchalantly:

"Either way, I trust my men wouldn’t dare lie to me. As for your brother, he might’ve been eaten by wild beasts or killed by someone else going into the mountains. Who knows?"

Li Yu clung carefully to Han Lu’s arm and pleaded:

"Lord Han, he’s my only brother. When I was gravely ill as a child, he risked his life to search for herbs in the mountains for me. If not for him, I wouldn’t be here today to meet you..."

"He must’ve been murdered! I can’t let him die without justice. Please, Lord Han, help me. I’ll do anything you ask!"

Han Lu didn’t immediately agree but leaned back onto the comfortable cushions with his eyes half-closed.

Li Yu, seeing this, immediately lowered her stance with tact.

"Lord Han~~"

She called out softly, the earlier conflict leaving her shaken, not daring to be impudent anymore.
