Chapter 1453: The Blackened Good Girl (88)

“She killed someone?” Tang Guo asked in surprise. “Who did she kill?”

System: Lu Jing.

“What happened?”

Lu Jing had learned about the kind of work Wu Lingling had been doing over the years, and after hearing everything she had done, he finally gave up on her completely. He decided to let go. Moreover, his mother's health had truly deteriorated, and a few months earlier, she had passed away.

Before she died, she had hoped that Lu Jing would forget Wu Lingling and marry a virtuous wife. She didn't ask him to become successful, only that he would live a stable and happy life.

“He agreed.”

Yes, faced with his dying mother's last wish, how could he not agree?

For the sake of Lu Jing's mother, Father Lu found him an ordinary but gentle and virtuous girl. Before long, the two became engaged.

Wu Lingling heard about Lu Jing's engagement from one of her clients and eventually learned the date of the wedding as well.

At this point, the System coughed lightly.

Actually, it was all arranged by the Lu family's heir. Not only did Host not want Lu Jing to live well, he didn't either. Even though Lu Jing was now at a disadvantage and held only an ordinary position, the quality of his work still surpassed many others. He was afraid—afraid that Lu Jing would rise again. So, after investigating Wu Lingling's current situation, he arranged for someone to let her know about Lu Jing's upcoming marriage.

“And then?”

These days, Tang Guo only had business dealings with the Lu family's heir. They barely interacted otherwise.

However, his methods had become increasingly seasoned and ruthless.

On the day of the wedding, Wu Lingling brought a knife with her.

Who could have imagined that she would stab it directly into Lu Jing's heart in front of everyone, killing him on the spot?

The System sighed.

She even told Lu Jing that she could accept him abandoning her, but she could never accept him marrying another woman. If he insisted on doing that, she would rather stab him to death. That way, no one else could have him.

Perhaps, in a twisted way, that counted as true love.

“So, all my enemies have finally received the endings they deserved.”

System: After talking for so long, is that really all the dog host has to say?

Thinking about everything that happened in this world, it was truly terrifying upon reflection. Host had only changed one link in the chain, and with the loss of the male and female leads' luck, things had developed to such a degree.

But thinking about it carefully, it made sense.

If an ordinary person had been placed in Wu Lingling's position, it would have been difficult to turn things around as well.

Without the cheat of destiny's favor, the male and female leads were nothing more than ordinary people, incapable of competing with supporting characters who were inherently more outstanding.

When Qin Ruolan and Wu Jun were questioned by the police, they immediately declared that they had severed ties with Wu Lingling long ago. Whatever she had done had nothing to do with them. They no longer recognized her as their daughter.

In their hearts, they only blamed Wu Lingling for disgracing them. They weren't worried about her at all.

Wu Lingling was not sentenced to death.

Instead, she received life imprisonment.

Perhaps the Lu family had influenced the outcome. They did not want her to die so easily.

No matter how dissatisfied Father Lu had become with Lu Jing, Lu Jing had still been the son born to the woman he loved most. Now Lu Jing had been murdered by Wu Lingling.

Because of this woman, he had lost face twice.

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't swallow that anger.

When Wu Lingling heard the sentence of life imprisonment pronounced, her body suddenly trembled violently.

After a moment of blankness, she looked around in confusion.

Then, as memories flooded back into her mind, she screamed:

“No… no, this isn't how it's supposed to be!”
