This...
It wasn’t until they saw Lin Fangling walk out of the room in the video, leaving only Shi Luochen with the knife inside, that everyone snapped out of it.
...What is this?!
So, tonight, it was Lin Fangling who brought Chenchen to the room in the middle of the night, and she was the one who brought the knife.
Then, she deceived Chenchen into killing Lu Sheng.
She even taught him how to stab Lu Sheng directly in the heart with one strike.
If the truth truly aligns with the video, then Lin Fangling’s initial shocked reaction upon entering, her surprised look at the incense, and her accusations that Shi Erya was behind everything—
What are these? Were they all just an act?
The video was publicly played, and every word previously uttered was heard by Lin Fangling.
At this moment, she felt like she had fallen into an icy abyss, her whole body frozen and unmoving.
For a brief moment, she considered whether she should just kill everyone in the room. If she killed them all, she could escape and never return to Beijing.
But the problem is, not all Shi Family members are human, and there’s Lu Sheng.
Even if the Red Fox were on her side, Lu Sheng’s Soul Power was higher than the Red Fox’s, not to mention how much more powerful she was in general.
It was very likely that even with the two combined, they wouldn’t be able to defeat her.
If she truly wanted to kill the Shi Family members, Lu Sheng would not hesitate to kill her first. And if she tried to escape, she wouldn’t succeed.
Lin Fangling couldn’t speak. Shockingly, Shi Chengyun stepped forward to defend his wife first.
He angrily looked at Lu Sheng: "What is this ridiculous video? Lu Sheng, you must have edited this, right?"
Shi Chengyun gritted his teeth and said, "Fangling was in bed with me before eleven o’clock, we woke up together when the fire alarm went off—how could she possibly have gone to Lu Sheng’s room to do such a thing?"
"Besides, Chenchen is our own son. Would any mother tell her own child to kill someone??"
"And furthermore, didn’t Aunt Chen just say earlier that this was all part of Shi Erya’s plan? Fangling has no grudge against Lu Sheng; what benefit would she gain by killing her?"
Hearing Shi Chengyun’s words, Lu Sheng thought to herself—Chenchen is your biological son, but he isn’t the Green Fox’s.
Chenchen’s well-being was certainly of no interest to the Green Fox.
"I didn’t expect that even with the video played, you could still argue like this," Lu Sheng said coldly.
"Brother rushed in while I was still asleep, almost stabbed to death. After I woke up, you all arrived at the room shortly thereafter."
"Even if the video could be edited, even if my editing skills were so advanced, I’d still need time to edit it, wouldn’t I?"
"Or shall I hand you my phone directly, and you can check the timestamp of the video recording to see if it’s the original file?"
Given the situation, there was no need to keep addressing Shi Muchuan formally as ’Mr. Shi’; Lu Sheng simply called him ’Brother.’
Shi Muchuan, standing nearby, was slightly startled.
Lu Sheng turned to Shi Chengyun, her tone steady: "Just leave after you sleep, and return before you wake up again. From your perspective, she never left."
"You say Aunt and I have no grievances, and killing me doesn’t benefit her. But earlier, how were you fabricating accusations against Aunt?"
"If I’m alive, the inheritance would be most impacted by your family, wouldn’t it? After all, you’re the only married couple in the Shi Family with six children."
"As for what you said about Aunt Chen..." Lu Sheng paused, then shifted her gaze towards Aunt Chen.
This made Chen Guifen shudder instinctively, lowering her head without daring to meet her eyes.
