Chapter 104: Lu Miao Is Weird
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Thinking back to the rumors in school today, she already had a rough guess. She shook off her hand and told Su MO that she would bring her back another day.
Su MO stole a glance at Song Lin. From her words just now, she could already guess who this woman was.
She pulled Lu Miao aside worriedly and whispered,” Boss, you…Are you okay going alone?
Why don’t I wait for you outside the restaurant with you? If anything happens, I’ll call the police at any time.”
Lu Miao sneered and pinched her shoulder.” Don’t worry.”
She turned around and got into a taxi with Song Lin.
She had nothing to say to Song Lin, so she closed her eyes to rest after getting into the car.
Song Lin couldn’t help but turn to look at her.
This wretched girl seemed to be no different apart from being a little prettier, but she also seemed to be different in every way.
She couldn’t quite pinpoint it.
In short, it gave her a strange feeling.
She shook her head and pushed this strange feeling out of her mind.
She had watched Lu Miao grow up. How could she not know what kind of person she was?
Thinking of the purpose of her visit today, she coughed hard and tried to get close to her. ” I heard that you’ve entered the best middle school in Luo City, the same school as Siyu. Are you still able to keep up with your studies?” Lu Miao did not open her eyes, nor did she say anything.
Song Lin gritted her teeth and tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart.” Mom knows that the Gu family has called off the engagement. You’re not in a good mood now.
The Gu family is a rich and powerful family. It’s not something that people like us can get close to.
Don’t be too sad…’
She rambled on and on, but Lu Miao, who was sitting next to her, did not move at all. She did not even open her eyes.
It was as if she did not hear what she said at all.
Song Lin was so angry that she wanted to give her a few tight slaps on the spot just like before.
If Lu Miao did not cooperate, all the excuses she had prepared before would be useless. She could only shut her mouth.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of 2068.
2068 was a restaurant that specialized in Western food. Although it was not as good as Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant, the environment was good and it was quite famous in Luo City.
Song Lin told the waiter the room number and the waiter brought them to the second floor.
She pushed open the door of the private room and saw a few people sitting at the dining table. The old lady was in the middle, and her wrinkled face carried a hint of nervousness and discomfort.
Across the table were Lu Siyu, Lu Qin, and Qin Shuang.
Lu Miao wasn’t surprised to see them.
Song Lin and the others were residing in the countryside. If it wasn’t for Lu Qin and Qin Shuang deliberately informing her, she wouldn’t have known about the annulment of the engagement.
Seeing her enter the room, Lu Siyu smiled at Lu Miao.
“Miaomiao, you’re here. Grandma has been talking about you since she entered the house. She even insisted on waiting for you to come over before ordering.”
The old lady finally heaved a sigh of relief. She quickly stood up and held Lu Miao’s hand.
She sized her up carefully and said with heartache,” Why did you lose so much weight? Doesn’t the Gu family allow you to eat?
It’s all Grandma’s fault. I shouldn’t have let you leave back then…
The old lady’s eyes turned red as she spoke.
Lu Miao felt a little helpless. She dared to say that she did not lose a single gram of weight. She had even gained one or two kilograms of weight.
Lu Siyu went forward and pulled the old lady warmly.” Alright, Grandma is hungry after waiting for so long. Let’s eat first.”
Grandmother Qi quickly raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes. She said to Lu Miao,” They said that this is the best restaurant in the entire Luo City. Eat whatever you want to eat to nourish your body.”
She pulled her to the seat beside her and sat down.
Lu Siyu returned to the seat opposite her. She reached out to grab a wet tissue from the table and wiped the hand that had pulled the old lady a few times.
She always felt that the old lady had a strange smell from the countryside.
Especially her clothes, they were worn for too long, the color had changed, who knows when they were last washed.
Thinking about this, Lu Siyu couldn’t help but shudder.
Fortunately, Song Lin had swapped her with Lu Miao. Otherwise, she would have been the one growing up in the filthy countryside.
The steak arrived quickly, and the old lady looked at the knife and fork on the plate with confusion.
As an old lady, how would she use these things?
Embarrassed, she looked around and didn’t dare to speak up.
Lu Siyu looked at Lu Miao gloatingly. She had specially picked this place for Lu Miao today.
After losing to Lu Miao several times, Lu Qin’s attitude towards her had obviously changed.
She had already found out that Lu Meng had never eaten Western food before.
She wanted to show Lu Qin and the others how clueless Lu Meng was, that she didn’t even know how to use a knife and fork.
Lu Meng looked up at the server. “Hello, could you bring me a pair of chopsticks, please? Thank you.”
The service staff was stunned for a moment. It was obvious that they had never met anyone who asked for chopsticks in a Western restaurant before.
After she reacted, she nodded and went out to get her chopsticks.
Previously, Lu Qin had regretted sending Lu Miao away and keeping Lu Siyu because of the Triwizard Tournament, but now that he saw her asking for chopsticks to eat Western food, the regret in his heart instantly disappeared, and his eyes were filled with disdain.
She didn’t even know how to use a knife and fork. It would be embarrassing to keep such a daughter.
In comparison, although Lu Siyu’s studies were not as good as Lu Miao’s, her etiquette and upbringing were all carefully raised according to the standards of a socialite, so he would be much more proud if he brought her out.
This adopted daughter was more to his liking.
Lu Siyu clearly saw the change in his expression, and her tensed heart finally relaxed.
The waiter quickly brought the chopsticks over.
She asked very considerately,” Miss, do you need me to help you cut the steak?”
Lu Miao said,” No, thank you.”
At this point, she was still pretending. Lu Siyu sneered, gloating as she waited to see her make a fool of herself.
Lu Miao picked up the knife and fork, skillfully and elegantly cutting the steak on the plate into small pieces.
Moreover, each piece seemed to be carefully calculated, perfectly identical in size, neither too big nor too small, just the right size to fit into the mouth. The gloating smile on Lu Siyu’s face froze at the corners of her lips.
Was this woman doing it on purpose?
She pretended that she didn’t know how to use fork and knife, and then
In that moment, Lu Siyu’s hatred for Lu Meng intensified, gnashing her teeth.
A trace of astonishment flickered in Lu Qin’s eyes as well. Was this really the wild girl who grew up in the countryside?
She excelled in her studies, had manners, and was beautiful.
A daughter like this seemed to better meet the expectations of the Lu family.
Lu Mlao didn’t have time to pay attention to the thoughts of those two. After cutting the steak in front of her, she placed it in front of the old lady.
Then she handed the chopsticks that the server had brought earlier to her. “Grandma, beef is not easily digestible. Have a little to fill your stomach, and later I’ll take you out for a Chinese meal.”
The old lady’s nose couldn’t help but feel a twinge. Lu Meng had suffered so much in the countryside all because of Song Lin..
