Chapter 371: Bone Bracelet
Jiang Yueyang was startled by the thunder above her head, but that thunder was far less shocking than the system's words.
Although she had a vague premonition, hearing it with her own ears was still too scary and too unbelievable.
As for Lu Yunting, he felt as if struck by lightning. He stood there frozen, his pupils trembling slightly.
After a moment, Jiang Yueyang, hoping for a lucky break, asked again: "Xiaogua, is it possible that you made a mistake?"
The system glanced at the two of them and replied, "Host, I've checked this countless times, there can't be any mistakes."
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang slowly raised her eyes and looked at Lu Yunting in front of her, her eyes full of heartache.
God, why are you so cruel to Ayue?
If he knew that the murderer of his father whom he had been looking for for so long was his uncle, how would he live?
Should I tell him about this?
"Ayue..." Jiang Yueyang stretched out her hands and hugged his waist, "Promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you will still have me."
Lu Yunting's eyelashes trembled, and a hint of light returned to his dull eyes.
He raised his hands and hugged the person in his arms tightly, his eyes red and moist.
Jiang Yueyang felt that he was holding her tighter this time than ever before, and his body was trembling slightly.
"Ayue, why are you..."
"Yangyang... I miss my father and mother. In the past, when it thundered and rained, my father would always be by my mother's side.
He also told me that in the future, if he wasn't around during thunderstorms or rainstorms, I would take his place by my mother's side. But... when my father wasn't around, my mother wasn't around either."
Jiang Yueyang felt even more bitter and unbearable in her heart when she heard Lu Yunting's choked words.
She patted Lu Yunting's back gently, as if coaxing a child. "Ayue, you still have me. In the future, we will have lovely children."
Lu Yunting didn't respond, but buried his head in the crook of her neck. The next second, a drop of hot liquid fell on her skin.
Jiang Yueyang's body trembled slightly. The burning sensation seemed to be burning her heart, causing her unbearable pain.
Her eyes were wet, and she suppressed the sob in her voice to distract him, "Ayue, do you like boys or girls?"
"...a girl, like you."
"I actually want a smaller version of Ah Yue. I think he'd be cute and handsome. But... I heard childbirth is painful, and if you're not careful..."
"Don't say that word." Lu Yunting suddenly interrupted her, "You can't."
"That kind of thing is not something we can just say we won't do."
"Then there will be no more children."
Seeing that his emotions were gradually stabilizing, Jiang Yueyang continued, "But if I don't give birth, won't the Lu family be extinct?
I'm telling you, I'm narrow-minded and don't want to share my husband with other women. If you want to take a concubine or change your mind in the future, our relationship will be over."
Hearing this, Lu Yunting couldn't help but raise his hand and pat her on the back of the head.
"What nonsense! You are all I need! It doesn't matter if I have children or not. I just want you to be here with me."
Jiang Yueyang raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, "I remember everything you said."
"Please remember this firmly."
At this moment, Lu Yunting's mood had calmed down a lot.
Although my heart still feels like it’s being squeezed by an invisible hand and I can’t breathe, the hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable!
He wants to find out why he deliberately killed his father and whether there is any other conspiracy.
After making up his mind, Lu Yunting let go of Jiang Yueyang.
He stroked her cheek gently and said slowly, "Yangyang, I will move back to live with... my uncle during this time. You have to..."
"You are going to move in with General Qiu!" Jiang Yueyang interrupted him anxiously.
Lu Yunting knew that she was worried about him, but he had to go back and keep an eye on the person to prevent anything bad from happening.
So, he said calmly: "Uncle is back in Beijing, I will do this..."
"Can't I not go back? I..." Jiang Yueyang threw herself into his arms, "I can't bear to leave you!"
Lu Yunting responded to her hug and teased her deliberately, "Is my Yangyang so clingy?"
Jiang Yueyang nodded repeatedly in his arms, "Yeah, I'm super clingy, so can you not go back?"
"But my uncle returned to Beijing for me..."
"Then...then let him move here."
Absolutely not, I will never give him the chance to get close to you again - Lu Yunting said secretly in his heart.
On the surface, he said, "I'm afraid not. He only wants to live in 'Linju'."
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang was extremely anxious.
"Xiaogua, please help me think of a solution. I'm worried that Ah Yue will be in danger if he goes back."
The system said: [Host, Lu Yunting's martial arts are more powerful than that of General Qiu.]
Don't you know the saying, "Catch him off guard?" No matter how powerful your martial arts skills are, they're useless when he's caught off guard. That's how Uncle Lu was killed!
Lu Yunting trusts you unconditionally. You can tell him the truth. Even if he doesn't believe it immediately, he will be on guard.
Jiang Yueyang thought this method was feasible, and then thought about how to say it without appearing abrupt.
At this time, Lu Yunting gently let her go, touched her head tenderly and said, "Yangyang, I'll go back and stay for a few days and come back."
Jiang Yueyang gritted her teeth, looked up at the pair of dark eyes and said, "Ayue, I think my uncle is a little strange."
"Ok?"
"I don't know why, but I just feel inexplicably scared of him. What he said also made me feel a little uncomfortable."
"We in the military all have a bit of evil in us. Perhaps that's what makes you uncomfortable?"
Jiang Yueyang shook her head vigorously, "No, you wouldn't make me feel this way, and neither would General Zhenguo and the others."
"...Yangyang, what do you want to say?"
Jiang Yueyang pursed her lips and looked at him solemnly, "Ayue, you might get angry when you hear what I'm going to say next, but I still decided to say it."
When their eyes met, the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
"Ayue, I think General Qiu likes my aunt, and I suspect he is the murderer of Uncle Lu."
As soon as these words came out, both sides fell silent.
After a while, Lu Yunting said in a deep voice: "What makes you have such a guess?"
"Aunt's painting shows the artist's deep love, just like the portrait you gave me."
"Even if my uncle..." Lu Yunting seemed unable to continue.
Seeing this, Jiang Yueyang sought help from the system, "Xiaogua, do you have any stronger evidence?"
The system said without thinking: [Host, the bracelet that General Qiu gave you was made of beads made from human bones, which were then soaked in human blood for many years.
If a person wears this kind of evil object for a long time, their body will suffer problems and they will eventually die without knowing it.
Jiang Yueyang's face suddenly turned pale.
Lu Yunting clenched his fists tightly, and soon, bright red blood flowed out of his palms.
He is trying hard to control his emotions.
After Jiang Yueyang calmed down, she said in a trembling voice, "Ayue, the bracelet General Qiu gave me was made of human bones."
"Human...bones?"
