Lu Yinan’s face darkened.” Is she always this rude?”
He was a professional esports player. When Lu Miao was brought home, he was in training with his team to participate in an international competition.
After the competition, there were all kinds of meetings to summarize their experiences. By the time everything was done, many weeks had passed.
Therefore, he only knew that Lu Miao had gone to the Gu family and did not know anything else.
Lu Siyu bit her lip and said bitterly,
“Second brother, please don’t be angry. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t listened to Mom’s words and gone to the Gu family by myself, Lumiao wouldn’t have misunderstood our parents and held resentment against everyone in our Lu family.”
“Hatred?” Lu Yinan furrowed his brow.
Although there had been a mix-up in the past, they were still family, and using the term “hatred” seemed too severe.
Lu Siyu smiled bitterly.” She always felt that I took over her identity and robbed her of everything. I caused her to suffer in the countryside for so many years and even made her risk her life and go to the Gu family to engage to Gu Shiyan on my behalf. However, I really just wanted to return everything that originally belonged to her. That’s why I listened to my parents and returned Mr. Gu’s engagement to her. I never thought that I would cause her such a big misunderstanding. After she got engaged to the Gu family, she relied on the Gu family’s support to embarrass our parents several times. Even now, the relationship between the Gu family and our family has deteriorated. Previously, she had even persuaded Mr Gu and hurt our father. He had even caused our father to be locked up in the detention center for several days. Our Lu family has almost become the laughing stock of the entire Luo City. The company’s business was also affected and suffered heavy losses.
I also wanted to reduce the burden on my parents and share the burden of our Lu family. I had no choice but to find Second Brother to use such underhanded methods to participate in the talent show.”
Lu Yinan’s face turned darker as he listened.
Lu Siyu’s tears fell.” She came from the countryside and was suddenly bewitched by money and the outside world. I understand. In short, everything is my fault. I don’t care if she misunderstood me and hated me. Second Brother, after all, you are blood-related siblings. Don’t hate her because of an outsider like me and ruin the relationship between you siblings.”
Lu Yinan’s face darkened. Without a word, he turned around and got into the car.
Lu Siyu clenched her fists tightly and followed him into the car nervously. Lu Yinan had a cold personality, and he had never been close to her. Or rather, he had never been close to anyone, not even the Lu couple.
Lu Yinan was only able to participate in this talent show because he was filming an e-sports show at the television station. Lu Qin had to call him several times to convince him to get someone from the television station to add her to the show.
This made Lu Yinan very unhappy.
But no matter what, she had to make the first move. Lu Miao could forget about snatching anyone else away from her.
On the other side, Gu Ziheng didn’t think it was necessary to introduce Lu Yinan to Lu Miao. In his heart, everyone in the Lu family was the same; they were all bad people.
He drove Lu Miao to Fu Man Restaurant.
The private room had already been booked. After the two of them arrived, they were directly brought to the private room.
The roasted duck was served on the table. The golden color of the duck greatly increased one’s appetite.
Lu Miao was excited. She took out her phone and took a photo to post on her WeChat Moments.
Gu Jinxi liked it instantly and commented,”Second Sister-in-law, wait for me!”
I’ll fly to Beijing to look for you this weekend!”
The corner of Lu Miao’s lips twitched as she replied,” Send me today’s homework to check. ‘”‘
Gu Jinxi instantly wailed in the comments section and sent a crying emoji.
Gu Ziheng looked at his phone and laughed gloatingly.
He wiped his hands clean, took a pancake, and rolled up the roast duck before handing it to Lu Miao.
Throughout the entire process, Gu Ziheng was in charge of prepping and Lu Miao was in charge of eating.
When the two were almost done eating, Lu Miao got up to go to the bathroom. Just as she came out to wash her hands, she bumped into Lu Yinan.
Lu Yinan frowned when he saw Lu Miao walk past him with a cold face and no intention of greeting him. He called out to her.
“Lu Miao.”
Lu Miao turned her head and looked at him.” What’s the matter?” she asked.” “I’m Lu Yinan, your second brother.”
“Oh.” Lu Miao replied casually,” If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first.’”‘
She had no kinship with the Lu family to begin with, and she could not be bothered to have anything to do with them.
After saying that, he lifted his leg and was about to leave.
Lu Yinan suppressed the anger in his heart.” Lu Miao, you should know that the Lu family had nothing to do with you and Siyu being switched. Siyu did nothing wrong.
Even if you have any dissatisfaction in your heart, you should have had enough after so many days.”
Lu Miao paused.” So? Are you here to seek justice for Lu Siyu?”
Lu Yinan frowned.” I just think that you have a misunderstanding about the Lu family and Siyu. From a certain perspective, you and Siyu were both victims of what happened back then.
Dad and Mom raised Siyu for so many years after all and have feelings for her. I hope you can understand if we kept her.
We’re a family. If we continue to make a scene like this, we’ll only be a joke to others.”
No matter what, his surname was Lu. It was impossible for him to really sit idly by and ignore the matters of the Lu family.
“Misunderstanding? Was it a misunderstanding when they were afraid that the Gu family’s engagement would cost Lu Siyu’s life so they brought me back from the countryside and sent me to the Gu family? They didn’t even care if I would die from it.
Was it a misunderstanding when they slandered me at school, accusing me of cheating in a competition just to vent their anger for Lu Siyu?
Was it a misunderstanding when they humiliated me in front of others and told me to get lost?
Was it a misunderstanding when they drugged and kidnapped me to send me back to the countryside because they were afraid I would hinder Lu Siyu’s path? Or perhaps when Lu Siyu lost the competition and conspired with others to drug and eliminate me, was that also a misunderstanding?”
Lu Miao said indifferently.
She was speaking on behalf of this body.
Born and raised in the countryside, enduring abuse and suffering, she had finally returned to her own family, only to be used by her biological parents as a sacrificial pawn for money.
If it weren’t for Lu Miao’s fortuitous arrival through transmigration, this Lu Miao would have long been buried six feet under the ground.
Lu Yinan frowned. What Lu Miao said was completely different from what he heard from Lu Siyu.
“Are you sure there’s no misunderstanding?”
Lu Miao’s eyes turned even fainter.” You said that we’re family, but you keep talking about Lu Siyu. The person you brought over for dinner is also Lu Siyu. After seeing me, you spoke up for her. How much did you believe her words and how much did you believe mine?
You think that she has been wronged and come to question me and seek justice for her. What if I’m the one who has been wronged?”
“Back then, when the Gu family wanted to proceed with Mr Gu’s engagement, everyone secretly spread the rumor that the Gu family wanted to find a scapegoat to extend ms lite.
They forced me to go to the Gu family in Lu Siyu’s place. If that rumor is true, if I really die, will you care?
Will you think of someone to seek justice for me?”
