"How many times has grandma asked her for pills? She's the one who keeps saying that she doesn't have any medicine anymore, so why is there a bottle of pills in her room? Not to mention that the bottle is exactly the same as the one that I lost," Lu Chuwan replied exasperatedly. "I lost my medicine, and she's the thief. How could you still stand on her side? Have you gone out of your mind?"

Lu Yumo did not want to waste his time arguing with her anymore.

Each and every single one of Fu Zhi's flowers cost nearly a million, so no matter what, there was no way his sister would steal anything from Lu Chuwan.

"Where are you right now?" Lu Yumo asked. However, his question fell on deaf ears. After all, Lu Chuwan felt that she did not have the obligation to tell him her location.

"If you have anything to say, leave it until I call the police. Also, help me take a message to Fu Zhi. Tell her that I won't let her go easily, and I'll certainly bring her to justice this time!"

Fu Zhi had taken it too far this time, and Lu Chuwan swore to herself that she would not be lenient with her. After all, a bottle of anti-cancer drug was expensive, not to mention that it was related to the future of the Lu Family.

When she thought of that, she started to regret that she had just laid waste to Fu Zhi's door. She should have done more than that. She should have destroyed everything in her room so that Fu Zhi would know she should not mess with her.

After a few seconds, Lu Chuwan started to exit the room. She thus hung up the call.

Suddenly, a noise that sounded like the click of a tongue rang out behind her. However, she did not notice it, so she kept walking forward.

She continued to pace forward until a series of footfalls suddenly entered her ears. Then, before she knew it, a male voice rang out. "You're Lu Chuwan, right? Can't you hear that I'm calling your name?"

The breath that grazed past her ear was warm, wet, and tinged with the acrid smell of tobacco. Lu Chuwan had no idea why, but it reminded her of a gloomy and oppressive rainy day.

The voice sounded unfamiliar. At the very least, none of the friends she knew would talk like this.

It was a stranger.

When the realization hit her, a chill crept down her spine as the hair on her back bristled.

A human would get paralyzed when his or her life was in danger. After about two seconds, she jerked her head back, and the first thing she saw was a hand that went straight for her neck.

The hand on her neck was bony, and the veins on the back of the hand were prominent. Her eyes traced along the hand, and a good-looking face rammed into her vision.

It was a face that looked a lot like Fu Zhi's. The eyes, the mouth, the nose... Everything on that face, including the jawline, gave people the impression that the man was Fu Zhi's doppelganger, and the only thing that set him apart from her was the stern and grim expression that was carved on his face.

The hair in front of his forehead was long. It was draped over his foxy eyes, preventing Lu Chuwan from reading the emotion in his eyes.

Even though she was in danger right now, she was so stunned by the sight that she could not come back to her senses. She forgot to scream for help, and she just stared blankly at the man in front of her.
