My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 957: The Heart Freezes Inch by Inch
She clenched her fists, unwilling to just let an unknown woman who came out of nowhere steal her position, as well as Hua Lunxi, the brother who had found her.
He had always been so caring towards her, helped her grow, taught her all sorts of knowledge, the only brother who acknowledged her identity. As long as she found Hua Lunxi, as long as she rescued Hua Lunxi.
He would definitely prove that she was the true daughter of the Hua family.
A glimmer of hope rose in her heart, yes, she needed to find a way to save Hua Lunxi, to discuss how to deal with and expose this woman and the conspiracy of the Ivan Family.
As her thoughts were in a confused turmoil,
Yiren smiled joyfully and said, "Today, not only did my uncle come, but my brother also came. Both of my closest blood relatives are here to prove that I am the true daughter of the Hua family."
Yiren, arm in arm with a tall and handsome young man, appeared in front of the private room. The young man’s calm and composed face was not unfamiliar to those present—it was Hua Lunxi.
Actually, with Hua Yueqi coming out as a member of the Hua family to confirm, everyone was already convinced beyond doubt.
And the appearance of Hua Lunxi was merely to strengthen the corroboration.
"Brother, please tell everyone whether I am really your sister," Yiren affectionately leaned against his shoulder, secretly sneering in her heart. How does it feel to experience betrayal and abandonment? Not angry, not falling apart?
She didn’t believe that woman wouldn’t show herself now.
"... Our Hua family has found the only heir, Yiren, and we only acknowledge this heir. Those who attempt to impersonate the daughter of the Hua family had better not come forward and humiliate themselves anymore; otherwise, the Hua family will never forgive," Hua Lunxi’s voice was ice-cold and ruthless, chillingly drifting over the auction.
Ye Lu’s blood froze, and her heart shattered inch by inch.
Her eyes stared blankly at the distant Hua Lunxi, unable to believe that this brother, whom she regarded as her closest kin, would say such things. Yet each sentence felt like a sharp knife cutting into her heart.
If Hua Yueqi’s appearance made her disappointed and sad, chilling her heart,
Then Hua Lunxi’s words caused her to feel a stabbing pain in her heart, immense sorrow, because she truly trusted him as family, with unconditional trust. She had hidden many things from others, but never from him.
She still remembered him indulgently saying that from then on, they would be her family.
If even her own family could do this, ha, who else could she trust? In the end, she could only rely on herself, depend on herself alone!
Ye Lu lowered her head, a tear silently sliding down her cheek.
In the private room, ThirdYoung Master Jun’s lazy posture and casual expression masked his eyes that were urgently scanning every woman present, his heart in a frenzy.
What was Ye Lu doing here, and why was she hiding so well, driving him crazy with worry?
Suddenly, his gaze unintentionally swept through the dense crowd on the first floor, where a foreign woman with golden hair spilling down and covering most of her face, seemed to be subtly trembling.
His pupils narrowed, his heart pounded, almost leaping out.
Even disguised, he recognized her in an instant, too familiar with every minute detail about her. Just seeing her chin, he was sure it was that woman.
He frowned involuntarily, fuming with anger. He had told her to stay at the villa and rest, yet she dared to sneak into such a dangerous place as the auction, alone without even a bodyguard. He’d see how he would teach her a severe lesson once he caught her.
A mother of children, yet she still loved to join the hustle, not fearing the danger.
