Chapter 142 A Battle of Wounds: Who Can Win?
Their eyes met, and Shi Yu remained calm. "Have I offended you?"
Uncle Zhang was stunned for a moment.
"No!"
Why bother?
Zhang Bo naturally understood what Shi Yu meant, but he pretended to be confused and snorted arrogantly, "Hmph! I don't understand what you're talking about."
"Let's go!"
After saying that, he put away his pipe, tucked it into his waistband, and turned to board the boat without even glancing at Shi Yu again.
Shi Yu stared intently at his retreating figure.
His pupils were slightly furrowed.
The next moment, nature returned to normal.
You can't reason with a damned devil!
She used to respect him because he was an old man, and she didn't want to argue with him about many things.
But once or twice is acceptable, but not a third time.
Since he shows no remorse, if there's a next time, she shouldn't blame her for being ruthless.
Composing himself, Shi Yu boarded the boat.
At this point, there was still some time before they could leave the ship.
Shi Yu found a spacious place and had just sat down when she noticed two cold, malicious gazes falling on her.
Sensing something, Shi Yu subconsciously looked up.
It was Lu's mother and Shi Jiaojiao.
The two men sat close together, eyeing him with ill intent.
Shi Yu couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Lu's mother is usually very arrogant, looking down on herself and naturally looking down on Shi Jiaojiao as well.
But today, the two of them looked so close.
interesting!
Although she felt a little curious, it was only for a moment. Then, Shi Yu turned her gaze away without a care.
A cold glint flashed in Lu's mother's eyes.
"Jiaojiao!" Then, she grabbed Shi Jiaojiao's hand and deliberately said loudly for Shi Yu to hear, "After careful consideration, your aunt has found that you and our Yizhou are the most suitable match."
"Auntie, is it true?!"
Shi Jiaojiao looked shy.
At the same time, she glanced at Shi Yu triumphantly.
"Of course it's true!" Mother Lu raised her voice again, not even blushing when she lied. "Yizhou thinks so too."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yu's fingertips trembled slightly.
"Good girl, you are so beautiful. When you wear your wedding dress and marry our Yizhou, you will definitely outshine all the girls on Black Mountain Island."
Shi Jiaojiao was so excited she felt like she could take off, her voice trembling, "Auntie, you're so good to me."
"Once I'm married into your family, I will treat you with the same filial piety I would show to my own mother."
"Okay, okay!"
The two were having a great time, chatting animatedly with each other.
Shi Yu was momentarily dazed.
Shi Jiaojiao wore a wedding dress and married Lu Yizhou...
What will he be like on that day?
He was dressed in a well-tailored white shirt and trousers, tall and handsome.
A smile played on his cold, sharp eyes, making him sparkle in the sunlight.
And standing beside him was another girl who was about to spend her life with him.
Shi Yu didn't know why she suddenly had this thought.
All she knew was that the thought of Lu Yizhou's bride being someone else made her feel depressed.
It felt like a huge rock was pressing down on me, making it hard to breathe.
I feel very uncomfortable.
"Phew!" With her long eyelashes lowered, Shi Yu let out a long breath, trying to suppress the discomfort in her heart.
When she looked up again, her expression had returned to normal.
Shi Jiaojiao glanced at Shi Jiaojiao, whose face was flushed, and a wicked thought arose in her mind. Suddenly, she didn't want her to be so smug.
He reached his hand into his bag.
With a thought, Shi Yu took out a carved bronze mirror from his spatial storage.
Held up before my eyes.
A meaningful smile played on Shi Yu's lips as he looked in the bronze mirror and hummed a tune to attract Shi Jiaojiao's attention.
Sure enough, Shi Jiaojiao subconsciously turned her head to take a look.
Upon seeing the carved bronze mirror, her heart skipped a beat.
This bronze mirror...
Why does it look so much like the one in my own space?
The cloak and vest from before were examples of this, and so is this carved bronze mirror.
Damn it!
She had almost forgotten about the incident because of Lu's mother's enthusiastic behavior.
Now, hooked by Shi Yu, his anxious panic has spiraled out of control again, even more intensely than the first time.
My heart was in my throat.
It felt as if countless ants were relentlessly gnawing at her sensitive and fragile nerves.
Shi Jiaojiao's face was pale.
"Jiaojiao! What's wrong? Your face has suddenly turned so pale. Are you feeling unwell?" Lu's mother asked, feigning concern.
"No...it's nothing!"
At this moment, Shi Jiaojiao was in a state of confusion and had no intention of continuing to be enthusiastic and perfunctory with Lu's mother!
After giving a perfunctory reply, she quickly lowered her head.
Shi Yu naturally noticed the change in Shi Jiaojiao's expression. She sneered and continued to look in the mirror intently.
At this moment, Xu Manyu finally lured Lu Yizhou over.
“Brother Yizhou! Normally, Shi Jiaojiao and Auntie have no contact at all, but this time, she invited Auntie to go off the island together. Given the situation of the Shi family, I'm afraid they don't have good intentions.”
"Brother Yizhou, you must stop this right now!"
Shi Jiaojiao kept stirring things up.
Lu Yizhou didn't hear a single word.
Just as he was about to leave the reef, he looked up and saw Shi Yu sitting on the boat, intently looking in the mirror.
His steps suddenly stopped.
Lu Yizhou narrowed his eyes, his gaze becoming deep and unfathomable.
When Lin Zhicheng left the island yesterday, he made a big fuss about it, which could also be seen as him defending himself.
It's said that Xu Manyu took the initiative to climb into his bed.
He had absolutely no feelings for her.
He can distinguish between pearls and fish eyes, and if he had to choose, he would definitely choose the fish with the eye of the fish.
Despite her tough talk, Shi Yu was actually head over heels in love with him.
See!
Feeling a sense of crisis, Shi Yu couldn't wait to chase after him to town to find him after he left.
really……
The fish left the island today.
Moreover, women dress up for those who appreciate them.
Having known her for so long, this was the first time Lu Yizhou had ever seen Shi Yu so concerned about her appearance.
Regardless of the time or place.
Even in public places, she would look in the mirror over and over again.
They must really care!
Lu Yizhou's heart sank slightly.
He gave Shi Yu a deep look, then turned and left without saying a word.
The atmosphere was heavy and oppressive.
Xu Manyu was stirring things up when she suddenly turned around and saw Lu Yizhou had left.
"Hey! Brother Yizhou, no... don't go!" Xu Manyu cried out anxiously.
She tried to call out to Lu Yizhou, but he completely ignored her.
Xu Manyu was dumbfounded.
She felt frustrated and angry, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only stand there and stare blankly.
The ship has set sail.
After a bumpy ride, we finally arrived at the town's dock.
Too lazy to pay attention to them, Shi Yu carried her bag and got off the boat first.
On the dock stood a man with a pockmarked face and a height of less than 1.5 meters.
When Shi Yu passed by him, the pockmarked man stared wide-eyed.
He stared intently at Shi Yu's delicate face, his heart racing, his mind blank, and his mouth practically watering.
When Uncle Zhang got off the boat, he saw his sleazy appearance.
