Chapter 179: Chapter 180: Do you think you can hide it forever?
Lu Jinghan nodded, changed into the slippers brought by the servant, and walked briskly toward the living room with his hands in his pockets.
Lu Qing An and Ji Qing in the dining room glanced over in this direction. When they saw Director Wang and Zhang Jingxian behind Lu Jinghan, their faces changed dramatically, turning pale as ghosts.
Lu Jinghan’s gaze swept over the people in the dining room, the sharp and chilling glare involuntarily making one’s spine tingle.
Lu Jinghan sat down beside Old Sir Lu and spoke softly, "Grandfather, the murderer who killed my parents has been found."
Old Sir Lu trembled inside, his eyes slightly red, "Your parents’ car accident was truly not an accident?"
"No, it was orchestrated by Lu Qing An and his wife."
Old Sir Lu stared at Lu Jinghan in shock, eyes filled with grief and despair, knowing his grandson would not say anything without certainty; there must be solid evidence.
Lu Jingchen slammed the table in anger, pointing at Lu Jinghan and shouting, "You can mess with food, but you can’t mess with words. Are you trying to disrupt our relationship with Grandfather?"
Lu Jinghan raised his dark, gloomy eyes, filled with crimson rage, "Lu Qing An, come over here."
Lu Qing An and Ji Qing trembled in fear, but still pretended to be calm, maintaining the demeanor of elders, "Jinghan, is this how you speak to your elders? I’m your second uncle after all."
Lu Qing An and Ji Qing walked over together and sat down on the sofa.
Lu Jinghan’s face was like ice, radiating murderous intent. Such a Lu Jinghan was something they had never seen, causing chills down their spines.
"From the moment you murdered my parents, you ceased to be my uncle."
Ji Qing anxiously refuted, fearing Old Sir Lu would believe Lu Jinghan’s words, "You can’t falsely accuse innocent people; how could we possibly kill elder brother and sister-in-law?"
"Not admitting it?"
Lu Jinghan’s lips pulled into a faint smile, yet it was as sharp as a knife or sword.
"How can we admit to things we didn’t do? Don’t try to tarnish our reputation."
Though Ji Qing was terrified inside, she still showed a front of confidence.
Lu Jinghan turned to Director Wang and Zhang Jingxian standing nearby and spoke calmly, "Speak about everything you know."
Lu Qing An looked at Director Wang with a vicious gaze, as if warning him not to speak carelessly.
Director Wang deliberately ignored Lu Qing An’s gaze, respectfully nodding at Old Sir Lu before speaking, "After the car accident back then, Lu Qing An approached me, asking me to handle the case as an accident. If I didn’t help him, he would tell my wife about the mistress I have outside. He also promised to give me a sum of money, saying I could leave after the matter was settled."
"You’re spouting nonsense, full of lies. You must have received some benefit from Lu Jinghan to slander us like this."
Ji Qing stood up like a shrew from the sofa, lunging at Director Wang, leaving fresh red marks on his face.
Zhang Jingxian was extremely angry at Ji Qing but remained calm, knowing it would be useless even if she denied it if Old Sir Lu believed it.
Zhang Jingxian chuckled coldly and then spoke slowly, "Search your conscience and say whether you did such heartless things. Heaven knows your deeds; do you think you can hide it forever?"
At this point, Ji Qing had no other strategy than to deny it to the bitter end.
"I swear to heaven, we absolutely did not cause elder brother and sister-in-law’s deaths." Ji Qing raised her hand, solemnly swearing.
