Chapter 576 - Xuanji Is Dead



Chapter 576: Xuanji Is Dead

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Xuanji was not in the car. There was only a memorial tablet in the car.

The memorial tablet, which was made of rosewood, lay still in the backseat. There was a name inscribed on it – Lin Xuanji.

Lin Xuanji.

This name made Lu Jinwen’s eyes sting. He closed the car door, hunched his tall body, and then gradually stretched another hand out and reached into the car.

His coarse finger stroked the name gently. It felt like he was caressing the woman’s delicate skin.

After that, he took out the memorial tablet.

Jun Mosheng looked at Lu Jinwen and curved his lips. “Young Master Lu, Xuanji is not with me. I only have Xuanji’s memorial tablet in Orchid Park.”

Lu Jinwen gradually raised his handsome, bloodshot eyes and looked at Jun Mosheng. There was a sinister, sneering smile on his thin, cold lips. He gave a low laugh. “Ha, Jun Mosheng, do you think that I will believe you? What are you playing at? You are coaxing me as if I were a three-year-old child.”

He raised his large hand and forcefully threw the memorial tablet onto the ground.

Bam!

The memorial tablet broke apart and the sound made everyone present tremble in fear.

Like that, the wooden tablet was split into two pieces. Lin Xuanji’s name was split into two.

Jun Mosheng’s almond-shaped eyes gazed at the wooden tablet tenderly and he murmured, “Lu Jinwen, you are too cruel. This is Xuanji’s memorial tablet and you have actually thrown it onto the ground.”

“Don’t you talk nonsense to me. Jun Mosheng, I’m asking you for the last time. Where is Lin Xuanji?”

Lu Jinwen bellowed furiously and he exuded a dark and fearsome aura, like the King of Hades.

He pulled out a gun and aimed it at Jun Mosheng.

Jun Mosheng had also pulled out a gun and was aiming it at Lu Jinwen.

The tension was nerve-wracking.

Lin Xuanyin was standing by the side and her face paled with shock. It was her first time witnessing a crossfire. It had been so many years, and these two men were fighting over Lin Xuanji again.

No, this time around, Lin Xuanji did not return, but these two men were still behaving manically over her.

Jun Mosheng’s handsome face was devoid of expression. He moved closer to Lu Jinwen. “Lu Jinwen, you are the one who is most aware of where Xuanji is now. Why are you pretending to be ignorant? I heard that you have been looking for her for many years. Why are you still looking for her? Hadn’t Xuanji been killed by you?

“Did you want me to remind you again of the heart extraction operation that happened many years ago? It was stopped halfway. What happened, hm?

“Lu Jinwen, Xuanji consumed the Gelsemium elegans that year during the operation and fell from the six feet high platform into the sea. Have you forgotten all about it?”

Jun Mosheng grabbed onto Lu Jinwen’s shirt collar with a fisted hand. His bright almond-shaped eyes gradually reddened and he looked at Lu Jinwen with a mocking smile. “The Gelsemium elegans is the most lethal poison in the world and there’s no antidote. My Xuanji was strong and courageous, but she was still a delicate lady. She jumped into the sea in front of you and did not even leave anything behind.

“She really did not leave anything behind. Her body might had even been eaten by the fish in the sea already. I don’t have her ashes, and so I can only set up an empty memorial tablet for her. Look at what you, Lu Jinwen, have done to Xuanji. She destroyed herself intentionally and she did not want to leave anything behind for you.

“You ruined her entire life. She had not wanted anything in her whole life, not even her body. She just wanted to be a decent person in her next life, and not meet you anymore.

“Lu Jinwen, have you become sober? Look at yourself, you have been deceiving yourself and others all these years. When Xuanji jumped into the sea, you only managed to clutch a piece of her red silk. You witnessed her death, but you are still unwilling to believe the truth.

“You have been pretending for so many years, and you still have the audacity to look for Xuanji. Ha ha ha, you are really ludicrous. Xuanji knew that the young master of the prestigious Lu family would be able to find her wherever she went. What she wanted was to have the freedom to go anywhere she wanted. The brightest stars in the sky are her beautiful eyes. She’s looking at how you are struggling painfully in this lifetime. She’s looking at you… succumbing to your own inner demons. This is the best punishment that Xuanji has given you.”

After Jun Mosheng had uttered these words, Lu Jinwen’s handsome, chiseled face became vicious and the veins on his body were throbbing. He was filled with red-hot fury.

He raised his hand and his fist struck Jun Mosheng’s face. “Lin Xuanji did not die. She would not die. You are lying to me, damn it!”

Jun Mosheng retreated a few steps from the impact of the punch. There was a streak of blood at the corner of his mouth. He stepped forward and punched Lu Jinwen’s face.

“Lu Jinwen, wake up. Xuanji is already dead. She has been dead for many years. Ha ha ha.” Jun Mosheng pulled Lu Jinwen’s shirt collar and pointed at Lin Xuanyin. “Look at that woman, your Mrs Lu. How long can she survive without Xuanji’s heart? When did my Xuanji become so virtuous and giving in your eyes? Why would she leave her heart for your Mrs Lu?”

Jun Mosheng laughed uproariously and maniacally, so much that there were tears in his eyes. “Xuanji was unable to fight you. How could she have won over you? The only way to win over you was to be vicious to herself, and that was to consume the Gelsemium elegans when the operation stopped halfway. She used her life to freeze time. She made Lin Xuanyin slip into a deep sleep. She let all the love and hate precipitate.

“Lu Jinwen, congratulations on meeting a worthy opponent in this lifetime. You fell in love with a woman who was just as strong as you. She loved you and made you unable to forget her. She hated you and made your heart ache. Your life continues on, but time cannot be turned back. You will never meet such a wonderful woman like her again. She had given you the best kind of love, and the strongest kind of pain, which will cause you pain for the rest of your life.”

Lu Jinwen was hit with a punch and he staggered a few steps before falling to the ground.

This respectable man had never been in such an pathetic state before. He fell onto the ground and was unable to get back up.

He looked at the sky above and there was a constellation of stars, which reminded him of the woman’s enchanting eyes.

He closed his eyes and groaned in a hoarse voice. “Lin Xuanji, Lin Xuanji…”

He recollected that the last time he saw her was on the last day of her life, which was also on the day of the heart extraction operation.

That day, she had worn her favorite red dress as usual. The vibrant red swept across the floor resplendently. Her hair was tousled by the wind, revealing her ravishing face.
