Lin Lu was taken upstairs to Lu Wen's room.
The hood had been removed from her head and she was staring ferociously at Lu Wen.
Lu Wen was smoking a cigar and sipping wine. The wine cooler released a subtle aroma that was unmistakable.
Lin Lu was terrified of Lu Wen and dared not meet his gaze.
Lu Wen set down the wine glass in his hand and said coldly, "Is it done?"
"I couldn't...Sorry to break it to you, but Luo Ying is just too incredible. She was able to recognize my ruses for what they were. How could she see right through such a delicate mechanism?"
"We have to get rid of her!" Lin Lu stomped her feet and pounded her chest as she proclaimed.
The back of her hand was suddenly stomped on.
Startled, Lin Lu raised her eyes to Lu Wen. Asking, "Lu Wen, why did you..."
"I have zero empathy for scum in this city. Make your choice." Lin Lu tossed a dagger to Lu Wen. "Take this tomorrow, and use it to kill Lu Zhao."
