Zhou Yunkai asked curiously, "How much did it cost?"
Li Xingran blinked her blind eyes and said, "Eighteen thousand four."
"So much money!"
Zhou Yunkai was shocked and completely stunned.
Yu Jing's eyes showed a hint of shock; it seemed like Lu Yang had more money than he could ever spend.
Lu Yang didn't hear their conversation; he went to sleep immediately and didn't wake up until dawn.
He quietly got out of bed to wash up, and soon after, Zhou Yunkai and the others also got up one after another.
Lu Yang glanced at him and said, "Yun Kai, can you do me a favor?"
"If you're willing to help, I'll give you a membership card once my restaurant opens."
Zhou Yunkai asked curiously, "What kind of help?"
Lu Yang asked quietly, "You're from Haishi, do you have any classmates at Haishi University?"
Zhou Yunkai nodded: "Of course, there are two close friends at that school."
Lu Yang nodded and said, "I have a cousin... Could you help me tell my cousin that his sister has been fired and her fiancé has gotten married, and that his sister went to live with him?"
Zhou Yunkai was dumbfounded: "No way, that's so rude!"
Lu Yang said helplessly, "My cousin is honest and only came of age this year. He has no social experience and I'm afraid he'll be deceived by his sister."
"Don't worry, I'll have my classmate pass on the message later: your cousin has no manners at all!"
Zhou Yunkai blinked, as if he had never seen someone like Lu Qing before, and his worldview seemed to have been shaken.
Lu Yang thanked him and took the basin back.
The following afternoon, Lu Yao had just finished class and was walking out of the lecture hall when he was stopped by two local students from Shanghai.
"You must be Lu Yao."
One of the boys holding a basketball asked.
Lu Yao was somewhat wary; many people here were arrogant and aloof, and some even disliked talking to them.
He didn't know why these two had suddenly stopped him, but he nodded nonetheless: "It's me, what's the matter?"
The boy with the basketball said seriously, "Let's find a quiet place to talk."
Lu Yao figured that since they were at school in public, they probably wouldn't dare to do anything to him, so he followed them.
After the three of them walked to a grove of trees, the boy with the basketball explained Lu Qing's current situation.
Lu Yao looked at the two of them in astonishment and asked, "How did you know all this?"
The boy holding the basketball said, "One of my classmates from high school got into Shandong University. He's the one who told me."
Lu Yao was a little confused. He hadn't been in contact with his family for a while, so he didn't know what was going on at home.
Lu Jianjun was afraid that he would be upset, so he didn't tell him that Lu Yang had been admitted to Shandong University, so he was completely confused.
But his intuition told him that what the two men said about Lu Qing was true, whether it was embezzlement or being a mistress, these were things that Lu Qing was capable of doing.
Seeing Lu Yao's bewildered expression, the two boys shook their heads and left.
After walking a distance, the two started talking in Haishi dialect.
How did Xiao Kai know about his sister's situation?
Some naive boys asked.
The boy with the basketball replied, "It seems he heard it from his classmate. His classmate also has the surname Lu and is related to Lu Yao."
The two didn't linger and went to play ball at the nearby gymnasium.
Lu Yao stood there for a moment, feeling as if fireworks had exploded in his mind.
He slowly turned around and walked towards the guesthouse outside.
After walking for a while, he started running again.
He has rarely run since breaking his leg last year, and now he is eager to see Lu Qing.
However, when he arrived at the guesthouse, he found that Lu Qing was not there. He ordered a bowl of noodles outside and sat inside the guesthouse to eat while waiting.
It wasn't until after 8 p.m. that Lu Qing returned from outside. She was heavily made up and wearing a low-cut red bodycon dress. She walked with a swaying gait, as if she had drunk quite a bit.
Seeing her like this, Lu Yao couldn't help but turn his head away in disgust.
He regretted coming to see Lu Qing and felt extremely embarrassed.
But Lu Qing saw him and staggered toward him.
Lu Yao quickly got up and walked out without hesitation, directly avoiding Lu Qing and escaping from the guesthouse.
Lu Qing's eyes were cold, and she didn't care about Lu Yao's reaction at all. She walked straight towards her room.
Lu Yao walked for a long time, enduring the cold wind, before finally waking up.
He came to settle scores with Lu Qing, but Lu Qing lied and said she was in Haishi for tourism, so she took leave to come.
He actually believed that nonsense; he might actually do such a thing, but Lu Qing wouldn't.
Although Lu Qing is scheming and frivolous, she has always been very diligent in her studies.
After regaining his composure, he went back into the guesthouse, this time heading straight for Lu Qing's room.
He knocked hard on the door, and Lu Qing quickly opened it. When she saw it was him, she immediately let him in.
After Lu Yao entered, he immediately locked the door and said coldly, "You were expelled from school?"
A flicker of panic crossed Lu Qing's face, but she quickly regained her composure.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Everything's fine, and Xuwen is protecting me. How could I possibly be fired?"
Lu Yaotai knew his sister well, so he quickly caught the guilt and fear on Lu Qing's face.
He sat on the edge of the bed, his face cold, and said, "Didn't Shen Xuwen get married?"
"His wife is pregnant, and you went to be Shen Xuwen's mistress, only to be stripped naked and beaten up in the street by his wife!"
Lu Qing couldn't help but tremble; she had never felt so humiliated in her life.
Although almost half a month has passed since that incident, she still trembles whenever she thinks about it, as if she has returned to that day.
Lu Yao couldn't help but say with disdain, "Since that's the case, you should hurry up and find a job instead of dressing like this all the time and living a life of debauchery!"
Lu Qing was emotionally distraught. She wouldn't have come to Lu Yao for help if she had nowhere else to go.
She tried to suppress her emotions, her voice hoarse as she said, "I don't know what I can do?"
Lu Yao thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask my friends here to see if they can help you find a job."
Lu Qing nodded and sat on the bed next to Lu Yao, feeling more relaxed.
Before, she had to keep it from Lu Yao, but now she doesn't have to anymore, because Lu Yao knows everything.
Do you know who ruined me like this?
Lu Qing gritted her teeth; she hated Lu Yang and Yu Xintong so much that her teeth itched.
Lu Yao turned his head and saw her. Lu Qing briefly recounted everything that had happened during this period.
Lu Yao scoffed, "You deserve it, don't you? Lu Yang is one thing, but Yu Xintong has such a powerful backer, how dare you treat her like that? You must be tired of living."
"If you hadn't run fast, she would have killed you."
Lu Qing stood up excitedly and screamed, "Just because she comes from a good family, she can steal my boyfriend, use underhanded methods to get me expelled from school, and hire thugs to humiliate me in the street!"
"Why? I'm not reconciled! I want them dead!"
