Chapter 853 - 264: The Diagnosis Is Love, Lu Ya’s Heart

Unfortunately, Lu Ya only gave an apologetic smile. "Sorry, maybe I just miss him too much..."

Zi Yuan didn’t say much either, and actually took the initiative to ask, "What are you looking for?"

Little Black Dragon had just been wrestling with whether to risk his life to let Mom Lu Ya know that the girl in front of her was actually Jiang Si,

but then he heard the boss ask herself and was instantly stunned.

He looked up at his boss in surprise, and couldn’t help pinching her wrist.

This feel... doesn’t seem fake at all...

The next second he was almost slapped into unconsciousness by Zi Yuan.

"Some treasures related to my lover."

As soon as Lu Ya said that, her eyes reddened again. "After I came here, I couldn’t find them anymore. That was the last relic my lover left me. I’ve searched everywhere and can’t find it, and there’s no one else here."

Speaking of this, her voice choked again. "He’s definitely going to hate me. Obviously, it was the most important thing..."

Little Black Dragon’s heart ached as he watched, then he looked at Zi Yuan with teary eyes. "Dad, we really have to help, right?"

Zi Yuan paused for a moment, then looked at that familiar friend and asked, "Got any photos?"

Hearing that Jiang Si was willing to help, Lu Ya sniffled and asked a bit cautiously, "You really are willing to help me?"

"I’m not." The purple-haired girl said coolly. "I’m just taking a look at whatever it is. If it’s not here, then get lost."

Yet even after being scolded like that, Lu Ya didn’t get angry at all. Instead, she seemed a bit nostalgic and smiled.

"Ah, you’re so much like him. My lover liked talking like that too..."

"You picking a fight?"

"No." Lu Ya didn’t say much more, just pulled a small jar from her arms.

The jar wasn’t big, like a glass water cup, filled to the brim with a clear liquid.

The reason it wasn’t called water was because the flow of the liquid wasn’t like water; it was more like some slightly viscous potion.

Of course, that wasn’t the important part. The important part was what was floating inside.

It was an eyeball.

Lu Ya stroked the glass cup with a look of fascination, as if her lover were right there, rubbing it gently against her cheek.

"I can’t find my lover’s body. Could I ask you to help me?"

"..."

Little Black Dragon, who’d just been feeling sorry for Lu Ya and was about to blurt out "Sure, sure," suddenly choked.

Then he stared dumbfounded at the eyeball, then at Lu Ya.

My mom’s turned into some pervert who collects human organs...

"This is Jiang Si’s, right."

What shocked her even more though was Zi Yuan casually saying that.

The little girl immediately got a bit indignant. "Mom’s not like that..."

"She is."

Before "pervert" could even be said, Lu Ya had already shyly admitted it.

That shut Little Black Dragon right up.

A moment’s trust and cheerfulness, traded in for a lifetime of introversion and social withdrawal...

Mom, how could you dismember Dad?

"But how did you recognize it?"

Sensing something off, Lu Ya’s gaze suddenly turned a bit subtle. "Do you know Jiang Si?"

"Not really."

Zi Yuan stuck to what she’d said earlier. "Just a guess."

With that, Lu Ya let out a breath and patted her little chest. "Scared me to death. I thought you knew him."

"And even if you did, so what?" Little Black Dragon muttered on the side. "Why would you be scared?"

"Because my lover actually doesn’t really have any female friends. I mean, at school he didn’t really interact with female classmates either. Generally speaking, other girls didn’t dare get close to him."

Holding that eyeball jar, for some reason Lu Ya suddenly started gesturing animatedly as she talked. "After all, his personality’s weird, his grades aren’t that great, he’s about the same height as me, and he fights a lot. Of course, there were some little delinquents who wanted to approach my lover back then, but they only wanted him to fight for them, so I secretly chased them all off..."

She just kept going and going.

Zi Yuan was already used to it though. This woman was like that—when it came to certain topics, it was like someone flipped a switch and she’d chatter nonstop, then wrap it up with some random lame joke nobody got.

Fortunately she didn’t crack any lame jokes this time. After finishing, she just scratched her head a bit shyly. "Sorry, I said so much all at once. Anyway, it’s because my lover never really dealt with girls, so I get a bit scared. This young lady’s so pretty, I’m afraid my lover might be rude to her or something..."

Little Black Dragon was having a hard time keeping a straight face. He snuck a glance at his mom Lu Ya, who was still constantly sizing up Zi Yuan, her gaze a little embarrassed. "Sorry, maybe I’m too sensitive, but it’s not that I want to control him. I’m just afraid he won’t get along with other girls..."

"What you’re actually afraid of is other people stealing your lover, right?"

Hearing Little Black Dragon’s words, Lu Ya’s face flushed red and she hurriedly waved both hands.

"No, I’m not, I’m not, not at all..."

As she spoke, the eyeball in the jar in her hand was shaking so much it was about to fly out.

Under Zi Yuan and Little Black Dragon’s staring, she finally ducked her head awkwardly after a long moment. "Okay, yeah... a little. Just a little."

While Little Black Dragon struggled to keep his expression steady, Zi Yuan looked at that eyeball. "Relax. There’s nothing between me and him."

"That’s good."

Then Zi Yuan pointed at the jar in her hand. "Why’d you dismember him?"

Little Black Dragon: "I know this one. Yandere types are like this—because they want to monopolize their lover so badly, they completely dismember them, then keep the pieces around to admire in a twisted way. It’s totally like that..."
