NOVPUBChapter 150: Chapter 150: This Door Doesn’t Even Exist in Dreams!
Xia Wenjin, with ald sneer on her face, said, “If it weren’t for my mom telling you to go back and pack up your things to take with you, I wouldn’t bother with you!”
Lu Zhaozhao, supporting her chin with one hand, slightly lifted her gaze and looked at her, “Didn’t you say that everything of the Lu Family’s is yours? What do I have to pack?”
The clothes she had previously left in the Lu Family’s wardrobe had been almostmpletely torn apart during Xia Wenjin’s previous fit of madness.
As for jewelry and such, the Lu Family would never give any to her, so Lu Zhaozhao didn’t know why Cao Mei wanted her to go back to the Lu Family’s place.
Xia Wenjin’sld gaze swept over Lu Zhaozhao, “My mom says you should go back, so just go back. Why all the fuss? Although you’re no longer the daughter of the Lu Family now, they have raised you for so many years; you should understand basic manners, right?”
“Oh, wow, now you’re preaching about manners!” Xu Zhenzhen, sitting next to Lu Zhaozhao, spoke sarcastically, “Blah blah blah, ‘your mom’ this, ‘your mom’ that, is your mom that awesome? Why doesn’t your mom ascend to the heavens then?”
“You…”
“What ‘you’? You said it yourself, Zhaozhao is no longer the Lu Family’s daughter. No matter how awesome your mom is, it has nothing to do with her now. Why should she listen to her?” Xu Zhenzhen rolled her eyes and launched into a tirade directly at Xia Wenjin.
She justuldn’t stand her smug look.
The Lu Family had just announced that she was their daughter, and sheuldn’t wait to bully their Zhaozhao?
In her dreams!
Not even in her dreams would that happen!
Xia Wenjin opened her mouth butuldn’t think of anything to say to Xu Zhenzhen.
She gritted her teeth and glared at Lu Zhaozhao, “Suit yourself, go or not, but don’tme crying later!”
After saying that, Xia Wenjin turned around and left.
Lu Zhaozhao watched Xia Wenjin’s retreating figure and, on thentrary, fell into thought.
Her easy surrender was somewhat unexpected.
Perhaps it was really just an offhandmment by Cao Mei…
But soon, Lu Zhaozhao dismissed this thought.
Because not long after Xia Wenjin left, Cao Mei sent her a message personally, insisting she go back to the Lu Family’s home and take all her things.
Her tone was even warmer than usual.
When something is off, there is something evil afoot.
Especially when itmes to Cao Mei.
“What’s the matter, Zhaozhao?” Xu Zhenzhen, noticing Lu Zhaozhao’s expression was off, asked nosily.
Lu Zhaozhao handed her phone over directly, and Xu Zhenzhen exploded on the spot, “Her mom and daughter are playing a double act here? Calling you back at this time, who knows what mischief they’re up to!”
Lu Zhaozhao shrugged her shoulders nommittally, “What mischief they’re up to isn’t just a matter of one or two days.”
Xu Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows, “Should we tell Song Sinian about this? Have him ampany you to the Lu Family?”
“No need.” Lu Zhaozhao shook her head firmly, “If Mr. Song went with me, they definitely wouldn’t dare to cause trouble today, but… it’s hard to say about the future…”
Dragging things out to deal with later was not her style.
Xu Zhenzhen nodded, seemingly agreeing with her view.
But since itncerned Lu Zhaozhao’s safety, after pondering for a moment, Xu Zhenzhen decisively reported the situation to Song Sinian.
Leave the headaches to the men to handle.
After all, on one hand, they must protect Lu Zhaozhao, and on the other, theyuldn’t let Lu Zhaozhao find out that he was already aware.
Song Sinian was in for quite a challenge this time…
Close to the end of school, Lu Zhaozhao hesitated for a moment but still decided to tell Song Sinian that she was going to the Lu Family’s home.
However, she didn’t mention the friction with Xia Wenjin or the message from Cao Mei.
Song Sinian responded with just one line, “Come back early,” and then all went quiet.
Lu Zhaozhao let out a sigh of relief, quietly waiting for school to dismiss.
But to her surprise, just as she reached the school gate, she euntered Xia Wenqing, who had already been waiting outside.
“Surprise or not, expected or not?” Xia Wenqing winked at Lu Zhaozhao. “I just happened to be free and passing by the school today. Would you like me to give you a ride home?”
Lu Zhaozhao was taken aback for a moment, then let out a light laugh. “I need to pick up something from the Lu Family, so I won’t be going back to the Song Family for now.”
Xia Wenqing nodded solemnly. “In that case, I will take you to the Song Family, and after you’ve picked up your stuff, let’s go have dinner together. How does that sound?”
“Uh…”
Lu Zhaozhao hesitated, unsure whether to agree.
It seemed okay to go to the Lu Family with Xia Wenqing…
As she was pondering, Xia Wenqing opened the passenger-side door and said, “Get in first, then think about it. We’ve got plenty of time before getting to the Lu Family, okay?”
“Uh, okay.” Lu Zhaozhao nodded, then sat in the passenger seat. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Xia Wenqing rounded the car, casually sending Song Sinian a message.
Almost as soon as the phone pinged, Song Sinian picked it up.
“Have picked up the person.”
Song Sinian looked at the message on the screen, his brow creasing slightly.
He had previously thought that there was little need to join forces with the Xia Family, but now it seemed that the people from the Xia Familyuld be quite useful at times.
Although he still didn’t like them.
Zhao Xi, seeing Song Sinian’s mood easensiderably, let out a quiet sigh of relief and placed a stack of documents in front of him.
“Sir, this is the latest situation with the Lu Family.”
The Lu Family had recently acquired the highly popular No. 1 and No. 3 mining veins, causing many in the Shangjing Circle to begin deliberatelyurting the Lu Family.
Their business was booming with overseas orders, and now they had secured two hot mining veins, making a fortune.
The Lu Family’s “ascension” to higher status seemed imminent.
While many were envious of the Lu Family, even more were eager to formnnections.
No wonder Mr. and Mrs. Lu were so full of themselves.
Song Sinian’s gaze skimmed over the documents, and he askedldly, “What do you think is the reason Mr. and Mrs. Lu asked Zhaozhao tome back today?”
“Uh…”
This posed a bit of a quandary for him.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Xi immediately began flipping through the stack of documents.
Shortly, he said succinctly, “Considering the Lu Family’s current situation, it’s either to capitalize on the popularity of Madam, or they want her to give up the school promotional film shoot, or… ituld be about the SJJ Hotel matter?”
Beyond these three options, Zhao Xiuldn’tme up with any other explanations.
But regardless of which it was, Xia Wenjin was inevitably involved.
Song Sinian’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, but he became lessncerned.
If it had something to do with Xia Wenjin, then there was no need to worry.
With Xia Wenqing around, they would yield “not an inch” – otherwise, he wouldn’t live up to his reputation as a legal giant.
Song Sinian pushed the documents he was holding aside. “Has there been any new developments at the Song Mansion lately?”
Zhao Xi frowned slightly, thought carefully, “The servants at the Song Mansion have almostmpletely changed. Xiao Jinglan won’t be able to make trouble for the time being, but she seems… to be planning something with Song Keren.”
“Song Keren?” Song Sinian raised an eyebrow, as if to say, what schemesuld shepossibly be involved in?
Zhao Xi blinked. “Well… arding to what I heard, Xiao Jinglan is planning to take her to attend next week’s dinner party, matchmaking her with Justin…”
