After Zhao Dong finished speaking, the dishes were served.
During this meal, only Zhao Dong was eating and talking, and Shu Lu only drank a glass of water.
Even so, when she left the restaurant, Shu Lu still didn't feel hungry. Her mind was full of what Zhao Dong had just said to her:
"Everything is because of Wen Ying. Because you are relatives of the Wen family, I spent money to support your rotten father."
These words dealt a heavy blow to Shulu's self-esteem.
Zhao Dong also said that if Wen Ying did as he said, he would provide her with an opportunity to study abroad, but Wen Ying refused.
"I don't like girls who are too stubborn. Stubbornness and aloofness require confidence, and girls from families like yours don't have that kind of confidence. She rejected the opportunity to change her fate, and now the opportunity is in front of you. Do you want it?"
Shu Lu didn't remember how she answered, but she definitely didn't refuse!
How could she not want it?
She was willing to pay any price to keep her current life and live the better life described by Zhao Dong.
She not only wants to live better than Wen Ying, but also better than anyone else!
Shu Lu was standing at the door of Jinjiang Hotel. Cai Youlun had gone somewhere unknown. The wind blew Shu Lu's new skirt into the air. Someone came to ask Shu Lu if she wanted help calling a taxi.
"Shulu?"
Chen Ru was transferred to Chengdu to work not long ago and had just gotten acquainted with a group of new colleagues. Tonight she was treating her colleagues to a meal at a restaurant to deepen their relationship.
Chen Ru was a little tipsy after drinking some wine during the meal. After seeing her colleagues off, she wanted to get rid of the smell of alcohol, but she saw Shu Lu at the door of the hotel.
The clothes and shoes on Shulu were nothing special, but the bag she was carrying was really eye-catching.
This kind of bag is not something a middle school student should carry!
Although Chen Ru couldn't afford luxury goods, she had frequent contact with wealthy clients at her job in a bank and had a good eye for quality. The leather and hardware of the bag in Shu Lu's hand made it impossible for it to be a knock-off from a street stall.
Authentic?
How much does the authentic product cost? Shu Guobing is still in prison. How can Shu Lu have the money to buy luxury goods?
As she got closer, she noticed Shu Lu was carrying a designer bag and looked brand new from head to toe, as if she had just come from the Jinjiang Hotel. She wasn't accompanied by an adult, and her eyes were evasive. Chen Ru's mind exploded—how old was Shu Lu? Shu Guobing was a piece of shit, and Wen Hongyan was equally unfit to be a mother!
"Who did you come out with, and what are you doing here?"
Chen Ru didn't want to get involved in the Shu family's affairs, but Shu Lu was a minor after all. If she really saw it and didn't do anything, Chen Ru would feel guilty.
Shu Lu called her aunt softly. Chen Ru's questioning made Shu Lu unhappy.
In addition, he had just promised Zhao Dong to follow Zhao Dong's instructions, and when he suddenly met Chen Ru, he felt guilty.
“…I came here with my friends.”
"What kind of friends are you keeping if you don't go home so late at night? Okay, I'll wait here and get to know your friends."
Chen Ru was sure Shu Lu was lying!
Shu Lu felt half guilty and half angry, and thought Chen Ru was hypocritical.
Who you make friends with has nothing to do with Chen Ru?
Zhao Dong had just told himself that Wen Ying was very scheming and had captured a super rich second-generation rich man. Any little bit of money that slipped through the fingers of the rich second-generation rich man's family would be enough for Wen Ying's family to be reborn and move to a higher level. Chen Ru was like a government official who only allowed officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps!
"Aunt, if you have time to meddle in my affairs, why don't you go back and ask my cousin? My cousin is so amazing, I want to learn from her!"
Chen Ru was surprised by Shu Lu's anger.
This is not Shulu's usual way of speaking.
"What's wrong with Wen Ying? Explain yourself clearly—"
Chen Ru subconsciously tried to stop Shu Lu, but Shu Lu pushed her hard, and Chen Ru was caught off guard and fell to the ground.
A car stopped by the roadside. Shu Lu trotted over, opened the door and got in.
The window of the cab was half lowered, and Chen Ru saw a middle-aged man driving... Thinking of what Shu Lu said, Chen Ru's head was buzzing.
What does Shulu mean?
What does it mean that Wen Ying is very good and Shu Lu wants to learn from Wen Ying? What does she want to learn?
Wen Ying didn't go to high-end places like Shu Lu, nor did she own branded bags, but Wen Ying took 20,000 yuan home and said it was her share of the profits from setting up a stall - no, that's impossible, Wen Ying is not that kind of kid!
Chen Ru has indeed made progress these days. She did not rush home to question Wen Ying immediately because of what outsiders said. Her first reaction was to scold Shu Lu for spreading rumors.
After all, Shu Lu was the one who was caught by Chen Ru entering and leaving the hotel with a strange man. How could the words of such a person be credible?
In the end, it was a passerby who helped Chen Ru up, and only then did Chen Ru feel the pain.
When I touched it, the back of my head was sticky and covered in blood.
I went to the emergency room at the hospital and found that I had a cut on the back of my head. Not only did I need three stitches, but I also sprained my ankle!
When Chen Ru limped back home, Wen Ying had just finished revising the essay she was submitting to the New Concept Essay Competition. She had copied it down with a fountain pen and was planning to mail it the next day. She was shocked to see Chen Ru with a bandage on her head and an injured foot.
"Mom, why are you hurt?"
Chen Ru was filled with rage. "Shulu is such an ungrateful little bastard. It's my bad luck to meddle in her business!"
When Chen Ru told Wen Ying what happened at the entrance of Jinjiang Hotel, she became very angry.
"Shulu pushed it?"
"That's her, isn't she? She doesn't go home late at night and hangs out with some questionable men. Your aunt is too indulgent towards her. I'm warning you, if you behave like her, I'll break your legs!"
Chen Ru took the opportunity to sound the alarm for Wen Ying.
Wen Ying muttered, "Whatever I want to buy, I will only use my own money. I can't stand it if you are so kind as to take advantage of others."
