"Miss Lu, if you ask me, you're in the wrong. Goddess Chen offended Young Master Tian for your sake, and you don't even know how to thank her. Instead, you act like she's the one who wronged you."
"Yes, Miss Lu, even if you later find out that you come from the Lu family and don't need that million, you still shouldn't be ungrateful."
"Oh right, Sister Lu, you have to understand, when Goddess Chen helped you get that million, you weren't even Miss Lu yet. She helped you out in your time of need, and now you're kicking her away after you've served your purpose!"
...
A barrage of accusations made Lu Xinwan so angry that her face turned green!
Lu Yaoyao, listening from the side, felt extremely aggrieved, as she had suffered a lot of mistreatment from Lu Xinwan recently.
However, she really didn't know whether she should cry or laugh. She felt that Lu Xinwan should take out her anger on her for all the humiliation she had suffered at Chu Nian's hands; because Lu Xinwan was clearly several levels below Chu Nian and couldn't handle her at all, it would be strange if she didn't take it out on her.
Then Chu Nian said in a teasy tone, "Oh, alright, everyone, don't blame Miss Lu. After all, she was tricked into being sent to a man's bed..."
Lu Xinwan felt that Chu Nian's tone sounded strangely familiar. It was as if she herself had spoken in that tone more than once! Now, hearing it again, she felt utterly disgusted!
Li Jingkuo chuckled, interrupting Chu Nian, and said, "She was tricked into sleeping with someone else, so what's she thinking by summoning us here tonight?"
Everyone suddenly remembered the conditions for winning and losing the race that Lu Xinwan had just mentioned: whoever lost had to spend the night with the other. The subtext of this statement couldn't be clearer.
So, Lu Xinwan didn't dare to mess with Tian Jun and his woman herself, so she sent his woman to them so they could mess with her? My goodness, this woman is too insidious and cunning.
Li Jingkuo's words were a wake-up call. These rich young men were indeed wealthy and powerful, but they were no match for Tian Jun and the Tian family. None of them dared to offend Tian Jun, otherwise they wouldn't have been trying to curry favor with Chu Nian.
At this moment, they looked at Lu Xinwan as if she were an enemy.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Yaoyao quickly said, "Sister Xinwan, I think it's getting late, let's hurry home!"
"Okay...okay!" Lu Xinwan also felt the hostility suddenly bursting out from these boys, which left her a little confused before she could think about it. However, it was necessary to avoid their sharp edge.
The two girls left quickly.
As their car drove away, someone sighed softly, "How could the Lu family be like this?"
These rich young men love to have fun, but here they only know how to race cars and wouldn't even think about the dirty things Lu Xinwan was thinking. After all, many high-class people live here, and even if they were to do something too outrageous, they wouldn't choose a place like this.
Chu Nian got into the car and started it.
The group then came over to say goodbye, and they were all quite enthusiastic about asking for her contact information. Chu Nian guessed that most of them probably thought they could use her to get in touch with Tian Jun if needed in the future!
Lu Yaoyao's guess was correct. Lu Xinwan had been wronged by someone else, so she took out her anger on her. She sat in the passenger seat the whole way and listened to Lu Xinwan complaining about her. Later, it wasn't just complaining, but also a bunch of vicious curses.
Several times, Lu Yaoyao almost couldn't resist jumping up and slapping the woman. But thinking about her future life, she held backâshe never imagined she would have such a day.
They returned to the Lu family home, swallowing their anger. It was already past 3 a.m., and even the servants had gone to bed. Naturally, the two of them went to their respective rooms. Lu Yaoyao washed up and went to bed.
But she slept very restlessly, plagued by nightmares. One night she dreamt that everyone in the Lu family knew she wasn't a true member of the family and attacked her; the next night she dreamt that Lu Xinwan was determined to kill her over a trivial matter...
She had only slept for two hours when she was awakened by a nightmare before dawn.
She dreamt that she was sent to prison like Tang Zhi, where she was subjected to all sorts of humiliation and torture by a group of female prisoners. Lu Xinwan watched her wretched state from outside the prison gates, smiling sinisterly, like a demon from hell.
Remembering that she still had a considerable amount of pocket money from the elders of the Lu family in her bank account, enough to live on for a while, she quickly packed her things and fled the Lu family home. She planned to rent an apartment to stay in first, but her phone rang shortly after she drove away from the Lu family home.
At first, she thought it was a call from the Lu family who had discovered her escape, and she didn't dare to answer it. But when she saw the caller ID, she was stunned: the number didn't belong to the Lu family, but it looked familiar. After thinking carefully, she remembered that it was the number that Tang Zhi had given them yesterday, the number Chu Nian had given them.
Tang Zhi said it had been deactivated, but when she called it, the call still went through.
Thinking about her relationship with Chen Nian, she hesitated for a moment before answering the phone.
"Lu Yaoyao, where the hell have you been? Where are your things in your room? Where do you think you can escape to? Your bank cards and your car will be deactivated soon...blah blah blah..."
To Lu Yaoyao's horror, the voice coming through the receiver was none other than Lu Xinwan's. Just like Lu Xinwan's attitude towards her on their way back to the Lu family from the coastal villa area, it was still a barrage of insults and curses.
"You... are Lu Xinwan?" Lu Yaoyao asked in a trembling voice, a chill emanating from her very bones.
Especially now, before dawn, when it is the darkest time of day and the cold is at its strongest, darkness and cold are overwhelmingly engulfing Lu Yaoyao's car.
"What?" Lu Xinwan asked in surprise, "Are you playing dumb with me? Can't you recognize my voice?"
Lu Yaoyao took the phone away from her ear and glanced at the caller ID again, her voice trembling as she said, "But... I clearly received a call from Chen Nian..."
"What did you say?" Lu Xinwan was also confused. Lu Yaoyao's voice sounded fearful, not like she was lying. But just as she was about to ask for more details, she suddenly heard a piercing car horn coming from the receiver, followed by Lu Yaoyao's scream of "Ah!" and a loud crash.
Lu Xinwan was startled and frantically shouted into her phone, "Hello! Hello? Lu Yaoyao, I'm warning you, don't try anything funny! Lu Yaoyao?"
Due to extreme panic and the fact that she was talking on the phone while driving, Lu Yaoyao did not notice the red light and ran it, resulting in a collision with a garbage truck.
Fortunately, neither the truck nor she was driving particularly fast, so no one was killed.
However, the hand Lu Yaoyao used to answer the phone was thrown out of the window due to inertia at the moment of the car accident, and a shard of broken glass from the crash pierced a tendon, causing her to lose her normal mobility ever since.
