Everything happened so fast! In just a moment, Mother Lu had no time to react. She could only watch Du Haoran's actions, her heart filled with despair and helplessness.

When she finally realized what was happening, she wanted to rush towards Du Haoran, but it was too late and was controlled by the bodyguards.

However, Mother Lu did not give up. She used all her strength to try to break free from the bodyguards who were holding her tightly.

There was a firmness and determination in her eyes, as if she could change everything if she could get a little closer to Du Haoran.

"Yingying..."

Mother Lu's voice was like a sharp sword, piercing the silence in the air.

It was a heart-wrenching cry, containing endless sorrow and pain.

Every word seemed to burst out from the depths of her soul, with unspeakable despair.

Her tears burst out like a dam breaking, blurring her vision, but she still tried to open her eyes wide, trying to see Du Haoran clearly.

She stretched her hands forward desperately, as if hoping to touch him and give him some comfort or strength.

However, no matter how Mother Lu struggled, the bodyguards always held her tightly, preventing her from moving forward even a single step.

Their power was so great that Mother Lu felt so small and powerless.

At this moment, Mother Lu's world completely collapsed.

She lost all hope for the future and was left with only darkness and confusion.

And that hoarse cry became the expression of the last bit of stubbornness in her heart.

"Xu Xiaoxiao, you vicious woman, I'm going to kill you!"

Mother Lu struggled, her eyes filled with anger, staring at Xu Xiaoxiao fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her alive.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao just looked at her coldly with a mocking smile on her lips.

"What? Are you sad? Are you also heartbroken? I thought people like you were heartless. Yaoyao could still be saved, and the doctor had already revived her. Why didn't you let her go? Why?"

Xu Xiaoxiao's voice was filled with anger and grief. As she spoke, she slapped Lu's mother in the face again and again.

Mother Lu's head was tilted to the side due to the beating, and blood oozed from the corner of her mouth, but she was unable to resist.

Her eyes were full of fear but no regret, and at this moment she did not really realize her mistake.

Xu Xiaoxiao had no intention of stopping. Her movements became more and more violent, as if she wanted to vent all her anger and hatred on Lu's mother.

"You people are willing to sacrifice anything for your own benefit, not even an innocent child. What is wrong with your hearts?"

Xu Xiaoxiao roared, tears flashing in her eyes, but it made her more determined.

The air around them seemed to have frozen, with only Xu Xiaoxiao's roar and the sound of slaps echoing in the air.

Mother Lu had been beaten so badly that she had lost the strength to resist and could only endure it all silently.

Her heart was filled with regret and fear, but she could no longer undo the mistakes she had made.

Xu Xiaoxiao finally stopped. She looked at Lu's mother who was lying on the ground, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

She knew that no matter how she punished Lu's mother, she could not change the facts of the past, and thus seek some justice for Yaoyao.

She slowly walked to Mother Lu and whispered, "Don't worry, Lu Yingying is not dead. It would be too easy for her to die like this. I just want you to experience the pain that Mr. Shangguan felt when he lost his relatives."

Xu Xiaoxiao's words made Lu's mother freeze instantly, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

She seemed to understand Xu Xiaoxiao's intention, and her body began to tremble violently.

"You...you are simply a devil!"

Mother Lu said through gritted teeth, her voice filled with fear and anger.

However, no matter how she struggled and cursed, she could not break free from the bodyguard's control and could only look at Xu Xiaoxiao with despair and pain in her eyes.

Du Haoran walked coldly to Lu Yingying with a bucket of water in his hand and suddenly splashed the water at her.

Lu Yingying felt a chill coming from the top of her head. She shivered and suddenly opened her eyes.

The freezing cold water made her body stiff in an instant. She tried to struggle, but her weak body couldn't muster any strength.

Her face turned red due to the cold and she coughed violently in her throat as if she was going to cough out her lungs.

Despite feeling so uncomfortable physically, Lu Yingying's eyes never left Xu Xiaoxiao.

Her eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness; her eyeballs seemed to bulge out as she stared at the other person, as if she wanted to see her true thoughts through the hypocritical mask.

"Xu Xiaoxiao, you will not die well." Lu Yingying cursed with gritted teeth, her voice full of resentment and hatred.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao just smiled faintly, as if she didn't take Lu Yingying's curse to heart.

She said softly, "You won't be able to see the day I die a miserable death."

Although Xu Xiaoxiao's words were calm, they revealed a firmness and confidence.

She was not shaken by Lu Yingying's curse, but seemed more calm and composed.

This attitude made Lu Yingying even more angry and desperate, but at the same time it also made her feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

Du Haoran stood aside, observing all this silently.

He did not interrupt, but in his heart he admired Xu Xiaoxiao's strength and calmness.

He knew that Xu Xiaoxiao was not someone who was easily defeated. She had her own beliefs and persistence, and would not give up easily no matter what difficulties and challenges she faced.

Hong Huo looked at the scene happening in front of him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he let out a scornful laugh.

He leisurely lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled the smoke.

Although he was enjoying the scene, his attention was not entirely focused on what was happening at the moment.

His eyes inadvertently swept across Lu Yingying who was collapsed on the ground and Lu's mother who was furious, and he began to ponder secretly in his heart.

This fierce fight is certainly fascinating, but for Hong Huo, the more critical issue is that the Lu family still owes him a full 5000 million!

If he allowed these two people to continue causing trouble, and if someone really died, wouldn't his huge debt be wasted?

Thinking of this, Hong Huo couldn't help but frown, and his heart became more and more anxious.

He frowned, feeling a little worried.

If anything happened to Lu Yingying or Lu's mother, wouldn't his money be wasted? This was not in Honghuo's interest.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but speak up: "Hey, I say, you guys have beaten me and scolded me, but don't forget to give me my money."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell into a brief silence.

Xu Xiaoxiao and Du Haoran both turned to look at him, with a strange light flashing in their eyes.

Hong Huo smiled nonchalantly and continued, "We have already agreed that you can beat them to death, but you have to pay. This show is quite exciting now, so don't forget my share."

Hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a hint of sarcasm: "Honghuo, don't worry, the money will be yours."

"Okay, that's great, I like it..."
