After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 382

Chapter 382: Chapter 382: The Shi Family Has Two Fox Demons!

!

Lu Sheng’s pupils shrank instantly.

The girl clad in a pure white lace-bordered dress, looking about her age, must be Shi Yuwei.

The woman who walked in after Shi Yuwei was Lin Fangling, the one Shi Chengyun married after his wife’s death.

However, what made Lu Sheng’s pupils contract in that moment was the sound of the Death Seeking Bell on her bracelet as Shi Yuwei entered.

Then it rang again when Lin Fangling stepped in.

What did this mean?

As Lu Sheng had suspected—Shi Suyu’s younger sister Shi Yuwei, who miraculously recovered, underwent a personality shift, and scored full marks on her college entrance exams, was a demon.

But the outrageous part? His stepmother, Lin Fangling, was also a demon.

This development took Lu Sheng by surprise.

This Shi Chengyun, living his days surrounded by two demons—both wife and daughter possessed. How resilient his fate must be to survive until now.

Lu Sheng instinctively looked at Shi Chengyun, her eldest uncle.

The man appeared to be in his forties, of medium height and build, with a square face characteristic of the classic national appearance.

Beneath his thick brows, his scheming eyes glimmered with calculation, his demeanor reeking of mercenary worldly airs.

His voice was sufficiently robust, yet upon closer observation, the deep circles under his eyes betrayed heavy fatigue and exhaustion. Prominent dark rings visibly marred his face.

Though his figure was rotund, with a protruding beer belly, the cheekbones on his face seemed hollowed, his overall complexion shadowed and sickly—the look of someone suffering from severe kidney deficiency.

A picture of visible weakness...

Demons could absorb human Evil Qi to replenish their Soul Power, but Evil Qi was naturally ingrained within one’s fate and not possessed by everyone.

However, there existed another type of demon able to tap alternate sources to regain Soul Power.

Fox Demons.

Fox Demons could absorb men’s Essence, typically through sexual intimacy—the fastest method—or by other means.

Lu Sheng took a deep breath and turned her gaze to Lin Fangling.

Based on her calculated age, the woman should be in her forties, but she looked barely past her thirties.

Her skin was fine and pale, featuring willow brows, almond-shaped eyes, and a pointed chin. Her doe-like gaze shimmered seductively, as if capable of captivating souls.

Was this Lin Fangling... a Fox Demon?

And then, what about Shi Yuwei?

Lu Sheng couldn’t help but recall an encounter with a Fox Demon—one that was exceptionally powerful.

That Red Fox had been severely injured by You Yi; whether it was eventually killed by You Yi remained a mystery.

When Lu Sheng shifted her gaze back to Shi Yuwei, she noticed the girl staring at the bracelet on her wrist with a thoughtful expression.

Shi Chengyun finally turned his attention to Lu Sheng, directing his gaze to Li Muchen, and asked, "President Li, did you come here with this young lady? She’s your..."

This time, Shi Erya had no choice but to step forward and explain.

"...Brother, you’ve misunderstood. President Li is not here in Beijing looking for you; I invited him to the family estate."

"You invited him?" Shi Chengyun frowned at the words. "Why did you invite President Li to the family estate?"

Shi Erya took a deep breath and replied, "Well, Brother, President Li is accompanying Lu Sheng."

"As for Lu Sheng..." She paused, "She’s Second Sister’s daughter. Father is in critical condition, and I specifically brought her here to see him."

Shi Chengyun hadn’t expected a young girl to intervene, and was about to lash out at Lu Sheng.

But when he tried to pull his arm back, he discovered it was tightly restrained—as though locked in a vice. He couldn’t budge it at all.

Not just immobilized—the grip intensified. Shi Chengyun felt excruciating pain, as if his arm were being crushed down to the bone!

The pain was nearly unbearable.

Lin Fangling screamed in alarm beside him.

Yet, with so many people present, Shi Chengyun stifled his cries, gritting his teeth, "You insolent girl, do you dare restrain me? Release me, now! Or else I’ll..."

Before he could finish, Li Muchen interrupted coldly.

Li Muchen’s face was stern, his aura intimidating: "Mr. Shi, I suggest you think carefully about the consequences before you speak."

Shi Chengyun suddenly recalled Shi Erya mentioning that Li Muchen had come here with Lu Sheng.

Although he didn’t understand Li Muchen’s relationship with the girl, it was apparent their connection wasn’t trivial. freёwebnoѵel.com

Not wanting to offend Li Muchen, Shi Chengyun begrudgingly swallowed his threats.

He glared at Lu Sheng, "Miss Lu, could you let go of my arm already?"

"Disciplining my sister is our Shi Family’s private affair—it’s none of your concern, right?"

He sneered, "Or are you assuming you’re part of the Shi Family and trying to meddle?"

Although Shi Erya had earlier stated Lu Sheng was Shi Xinlan’s daughter, Shi Chengyun clearly implied he didn’t acknowledge Shi Xinlan or her lineage as part of the Shi Family.

As if that justified his violent behaviors as family matters immune from external interference.

Lu Sheng glanced at Shi Erya’s swollen left cheek, suppressing her rage with difficulty.

"Whether or not I’m part of the Shi Family, domestic violence is a human rights violation and a punishable crime." Lu Sheng stated coolly.

"I believe this Mr. Shi is a lawyer, correct?" She turned to the man dressed in a dark brown pinstriped suit, gold-rimmed glasses, his chiselled features sharp as his demeanor, her tone tinged with mockery, "By professional ethics alone—not to mention as the nephew of your aunt—you wouldn’t step in to prevent this?"
