Chapter 226 - Struggle For Control

Chapter 226 - Struggle For Control

When Iris fainted, Dom and Meimei panicked, alarming the entire household. They thought that she went into coma again. Everyone was frantic. They were about to call an ambulance when Lu Zihao emerged from the elevator.

He immediately ran over to them and gathered Iris in his arms. To everyone’s surprise and relief, he managed to wake her up. He was speaking to Iris in Russian which they couldn’t understand.

Iris looked dazed at first. Then she began trembling. Her face suddenly contorted into a savage expression and a loud hiss escaped from her lips. "Fan Luo!"

"Little Sister, control your body!" Lu Zihao snapped at her.

"I’m gonna kill you, b*tch!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.

Her voice was filled with such menace that everyone except Lu Zihao felt chills down their spines. Yi Mei, the cook and some of the older maids shivered as they watched their raging Young Miss. They were suddenly reminded of the Young Miss before the car accident.

"Let me go! I need to kill that b*tch!"

Lu Zihao shackled her with his arms while she struggled to escape. He didn’t budge a bit even when she resorted to hitting, kicking, and even biting him.

"You will get your revenge, Long Xiulan," he said in a calm tone. "Little Sister, don’t let your body control you."

Iris struggled a bit more. Her expression kept on changing, freaking out Yi Mei and the others. Finally, she stopped struggling and plopped like a limp doll on Lu Zihao. She was gasping for breath and drenched in her own sweat.

"Big Brother..."

"You’ll be fine. Just keep on breathing."

She obeyed. A few minutes later, she felt a bit better.

"I want Liwei..."

Lu Zihao’s eyes darkened and his arms around her tightened.

The home phone rang. Yi Mei went to answer it. After the call, she informed everyone that the condominium’s security called because reporters were swarming the building outside.

"It’s not safe here anymore," Lu Zihao said, frowning.

Another phone started ringing. It was Iris’ phone. Dom went to answer it. "Hello, sir boss! Please come back home! Boss is...wuwuwu!"

"Give me the phone!" Lu Zihao ordered.

Dom handed him the phone, still sobbing.

Lu Zihao spoke to Jin Liwei, explaining to him what happened to Iris.

While he was talking on the phone, Iris was busy struggling within herself. She was focusing on maintaining control of her body. An intense fury that didn’t belong to her threatened to overwhelm her at any given moment. Now she could discern the disconnect between her and her body a little more clearly.

’Cooperate with me,’ she communicated to her body. ’We are one now. If you need revenge to be at peace, I’ll help you obtain it. Just don’t fight with me anymore.’

To her surprise, her body immediately calmed down. The fury and desire for revenge was still there but they weren’t trying to overwhelm her anymore. She sighed in relief and was now able to relax, but she felt weak and exhausted. Her eyes started to droop.

"So sleepy," she murmured.

Lu Zihao’s heart almost stopped when her eyes closed. Did she go into coma again? Then he noticed her deep, steady breathing. She also didn’t feel ice-cold or looked pale anymore. He released a breath of relief. She just fell asleep.

That same day, Jin Liwei’s subordinates arrived at the penthouse to help Iris leave the condominium building and escape from the reporters waiting outside. She was still asleep, so Lu Zihao carried her. Dom also came with them carrying Ice Cream and Popcorn inside carriers.

They were headed to Jin Liwei’s mansion at Dragon Palace Home #10. Jin Liwei was already on his way to meet them there.

It seemed that the Long ancestral residence was also surrounded by reporters just like the condo. Jin Liwei’s property was the safest place for Iris at the moment. Nobody would expect to find her there.

Yi Mei and the others were left behind. Jiang Ying Yue also stayed because of Little Jun. They were busy packing luggage for their Young Miss, Lu Zihao, Dom and the kittens to send after them later.

Meimei returned to the Long ancestral residence to personally report what happened to Long Tengfei and Yang Jiahui.

Needless to say, Long Tengfei was extremely furious. He wanted to storm into the hospital where Fan Luo was staying and strangle her with his own bare hands. So she was the reason why his daughter almost died in that car crash two years ago! Unforgivable!

The war between the Jins and the Fans became even more complicated when the Longs officially joined the fray.

Jin Family’s Old Mansion.

Grandma Li knocked on Huang Yuyan’s bedroom door. She tried to open it but it was locked.

"Get the key," she instructed a maid.

Moments later, the door was unlocked. Grandma Li strode into the dark bedroom. She saw the lump on the bed that was his daughter-in-law. Sighing, she gestured at the maid to open the curtains while she walked towards the bed.

"Yuyan my dear, you haven’t eaten anything today yet. I asked them to prepare rice porridge for you."

A whimper was the only reply she received. Grandma Li sighed once more. She wanted to say a lot of things to her daughter-in-law but she decided to say nothing for now. She would allow Huang Yuyan a few days to come to terms with reality first before giving her a piece of her mind.

"Try to eat the rice porridge later," was all Grandma Li could say before making her way out of the bedroom.

"Why did all of these have to happen?" Huang Yuyan finally spoke in a small and hoarse voice. "The Fans are like our family. I don’t know if those accusations about their company are true or not, but my sister and Little Luo Luo are surely innocent! Why do they have to suffer like this? Poor Little Luo Luo. I want to visit her at the hospital but I no longer have a face to show her and her mother after what Chonglin did. I can’t believe that my two sons could be so ruthless!"

Grandma Li’s patience snapped. "Listen to yourself, Yuyan! Are you a member of our Jin family or the Fans?! How can you side with those criminals and blame your own children?! I’m so disappointed in you!"

Huang Yuyan sobbed hard.

Grandma Li wavered seeing her daughter-in-law’s pitiful state. However, her anger was greater. Huang Yuyan’s words crossed her bottom line. She felt indignant on behalf of her two grandsons. To her, family was number one. Even if her grandsons were to commit murder, she would continue to love and defend them with her life. She would never abandon them for other people.
