Chapter 358 Don't you know how vengeful I am?
Lu Jingxiao stepped forward, his face grim, and looked at the bodyguard: "He also hit Weiwei?"
"What am I supposed to do with all of you?!"
Their mission was to ensure Luo Zhiwei's safety, and now they'd been attacked. Lu Jingxiao turned to look at Luo Zhiwei with concern: "Baby, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, it's just that my face hurts." Luo Zhiwei didn't even feel any pain. More than the pain, she wanted to know what Lu Jingxiao had gone through in those five years.
Lu Jingxiao gently stroked Weiwei's face, his expression dark and unpleasant: "Good girl, I'll avenge you."
He turned and stared at Zhao Yulan and her man with a death stare, his gaze settling on the man: "So it was you, impersonating my cousin?"
"How come I didn't know that I, Lu Jingxiao, had a cousin?"
The man was stunned. He hadn't expected that the woman not only knew Lu Jingxiao, but also had a very good relationship with him. It seemed they were a couple.
"I...I didn't...you...you misheard me, I didn't..." The man trembled with fear, trying to back away and even more so to run away, but the bodyguard didn't give him the chance: "I didn't say anything, Mr. Lu, you...you don't misunderstand, I...I was just joking with this lady."
"Are you kidding me?"
Lu Jingxiao snorted coldly: "Then I'll play with you too."
He said to the bodyguards behind him, "Take him away. All of you, have some fun with him. If you don't have a good time, you're fired."
The bodyguard was terrified; this was absolutely terrifying!
Isn't this gambling with one's career?!
"Yes, President!"
They dragged the man away, because he was just too fat and ugly, and he actually tried to impersonate the president's cousin. He was shameless.
Lu Jingxiao then turned his gaze to Zhao Yulan's side, his sinister expression sending chills down one's spine: "Was it you... who gossiped about Weiwei?"
"Zhao Yulan, you don't think... that being pregnant will solve everything?"
"You..." Zhao Yulan was overwhelmed with fear. She instinctively clutched her stomach. "I...Mr. Lu, I didn't mean anything by it. I...I didn't mean it, I just..."
"She provoked me first!" Zhao Yulan retorted.
Lu Jingxiao chuckled. Putting aside whether Weiwei had provoked him, even if she had, they had no right to make things difficult for her: "Weiwei doesn't even remember you, so how can we make things difficult for you?"
"Zhao Yulan, you're talking nonsense in front of Weiwei, so don't blame me for being impolite."
He suddenly felt that he had become much gentler. In Weiwei's memory, he was still that gentle and refined young man who would not easily resort to violence and would reason with people. Now... even if he was pretending, he had to pretend to be more convincing.
Lu Jingxiao ordered his men to drag Zhao Yulan away, but Zhao Yulan continued to curse, "Luo Zhiwei, you're a bitch, you'll die a horrible death, you..."
Gu Youran can't stand it when someone insults Weiwei; it makes her very angry.
Even though Zhao Yulan had been dragged several meters away, she still caught up with her in one stride and slapped her twice: "You're so foul-mouthed! If you dare to curse Weiwei again, I'll cut out your tongue."
Zhao Yulan was completely stunned by the slap: "You...how dare you hit me!"
"Gu Youran, you're nothing but Luo Zhiwei's dog. She doesn't even consider you a friend, yet you treat her like a treasure. How shameless are you!"
"I'm willing, what's it to you?" Gu Youran's words left Zhao Yulan speechless.
Seeing that they were about to confront each other again, Lu Jingxiao immediately shouted, "Hurry up and take them away!"
Gu Youran then turned to Luo Zhiwei and gently comforted her, "Don't listen to her nonsense, okay? Lu Jingxiao was very busy abroad those years, otherwise Lu's Group wouldn't be what it is today. Don't believe what Zhao Yulan said."
She knew that Luo Zhiwei cared a lot about this matter, and she had to explain.
Weiwei trusts her family more than an outsider.
“Weiwei, Zhao Yulan is Zhao Tingguo’s daughter. They showed up at your door on the very afternoon your aunt passed away. You can’t trust the words of a mistress’s daughter, understand?”
Seeing that Luo Zhiwei remained silent, Gu Youran was also running out of ideas. She gave Lu Jingxiao a wink, implying, "Hey, hurry up and coax her."
Lu Jingxiao gently pulled the person into his arms and whispered, "Baby, if you really hurt me, how could I possibly come back? Don't you know how vengeful I am?"
Luo Zhiwei gradually began to react. She had been overwhelmed by immense fear and couldn't remember anything, not even a single vague fragment. She was terrified that what Zhao Yulan said was true, and then... how could she face Lu Jingxiao?
"Really?"
"Of course, baby, you can't just listen to what others say; you have to listen to what I say, right?"
Luo Zhiwei thought to herself that You Ran had come temporarily and didn't know what had happened. Although Lu Jingxiao had received her call, they probably hadn't communicated.
Why would she trust other people instead of her family, friends, and fiancé?
That's impossible!
Her mood instantly improved, and she immediately wrapped her arms around Lu Jingxiao's waist: "Yes, you're right. I should trust you and Ranran. You wouldn't lie to me, right?"
Gu Youran thought for a moment: "..."
They didn't really lie; they just concealed some important information.
There was no deception.
Lu Jingxiao remained calm and composed, appearing completely at ease: "Yes, I won't lie to you."
He suddenly seemed to remember something and asked curiously, "Why did you decide to come to the mall today?"
"I just..." Now it was Luo Zhiwei's turn to feel guilty: "I just came to buy some things and plan to visit Auntie at the old house."
Lu Jingxiao couldn't help but raise an eyebrow; so that's how it is.
"Then I'll go with you?"
"OK."
Gu Youran, standing to the side: "..."
Standing here, I've already had my fill of dog food, why would I need to eat anything else?
She made up an excuse: "Then you guys go ahead, Li Huaijin is waiting for me upstairs, I'm going to eat."
In fact, Li Huaijin was indeed upstairs. He had just been about to come down with her, but she refused. The main reason was that she didn't know how to explain it to Weiwei, so... she sternly reprimanded him for not being allowed to follow.
Now it's time to go find him.
Weiwei has someone with her, and if she follows along, she'll just be a third wheel. Wouldn't that ruin their relationship?
But she never imagined that saying this now would only cause more misunderstanding.
"Huh?" Luo Zhiwei asked curiously, "You were with Li Huaijin just now."
Gu Youran: "...Oh, really? I didn't know that."
Luo Zhiwei: "???"
You don't know who you're with?
Why does Ranran seem a little slow?
"I...it's getting late, I have to go now."
I can't say any more. If I keep talking, we won't be able to leave, which will further delay their time together. Lu Jingxiao will probably tear her apart.
Gu Youran took off running and disappeared, leaving the two bewildered young couple behind.
Luo Zhiwei pouted slightly: "Ranran has a secret from me."
"As long as I have no secrets from you, that's fine." Lu Jingxiao gently rubbed her head, his eyes full of affection: "Aren't you going to buy something? I'll go shopping with you and buy you something while I'm at it."
Luo Zhiwei felt a little guilty. Buying things for her aunt was just a side thing; she mainly wanted to get a piece of fabric to use in her suit.
The owner of the custom tailor shop made many phone calls, but only when this mall had the fabric did she make the trip herself.
Who knew something like this would happen?
"Great! C brand has a new ruby necklace that would be perfect for an auntie. Let's go check it out..."
