When Lu Huaijiao wasn't joking, her expression was as cold as if it were covered with a thin layer of frost.
It makes you feel cold just by looking at it.
Lu Sisi had met Lu Huaijiao twice in her previous life and had seen Lu Huaijiao from afar, surrounded by people like a princess.
But no matter when, she had never seen Lu Huaijiao show such a cold expression.
So when people first see it, they are startled and don't react in time.
Lu Huaijiao scoffed.
In her eyes, Lu Sisi was no different from a rat in a stinking ditch.
She doesn't have the extra time to play with these stinky rats and cockroaches.
"Gu Changzheng, I'm hungry."
She turned around and looked at Gu Changzheng beside her.
Gu Changzheng hummed in agreement, a slight smile curving his thin lips. He reached out and took her hand, and the couple swaggered home.
The courtyard gate slammed shut.
Lu Sisi snapped out of her daze at the sound. She wanted to say something more, but the door was already tightly shut, and no one paid any attention to her.
However, her disheveled appearance was seen by many of her neighbors.
They also knew that this person was Lu Zhengde's illegitimate daughter.
"Look, that's Lu Zhengde's daughter with the nanny. I heard she's only a little bit younger than Jiaojiao."
"A little younger than Jiaojiao? If you hadn't told me, I would have thought you were Jiaojiao's aunt! You look so old!"
"She is quite old, but her biological mother wasn't good-looking to begin with. She's just like her brother, like her uncle's family, dark-skinned and ugly. It's a good thing Lu Zhengde is good-looking, otherwise, they would definitely be even uglier."
"Are you saying that Qin Yanhua, a toad, managed to eat Lu Zhengde, a swan?"
"That's not what I meant, haha..."
Although these neighbors don't usually greet Lu Huaijiao, and some dislike her pretentious and affected personality, it doesn't stop them from despising those who are even worse.
Yes, they seem to be speaking up for Lu Huaijiao, but in reality, they are just expressing their contempt for Lu Zhengde and Qin Lan's actions.
As Lu Zhengde's daughter, Lu Sisi was naturally the one they were talking about.
On the other hand, given Lu Sisi's current status, if she were a smart person, she should immediately find a place to hide and live a low-key life.
Lu Sisi's behavior of swaggering in like that is seen by everyone as asking for a beating.
If it were them, they might have been even more ruthless than Lu Huaijiao!
Lu Sisi never dreamed that after being beaten up, she wouldn't evoke sympathy for her or condemnation of Lu Huaijiao. On the contrary, they continued to criticize her...
This was a scene that Lu Sisi never imagined.
Seeing the contemptuous looks and expressions of those around her, and hearing their vile mockery, Lu Sisi felt truly ashamed and indignant. She covered her face with her hands and ran away crying.
Behind me, the mocking voices continued to echo.
Lu Sisi lay there with her face burning. The strange looks from these people hurt more than being beaten! It's all that bitch Lu Huaijiao's fault, it's all her fault.
She will definitely settle this score with Lu Huaijiao, absolutely!
…………
Lu Huaijiao had no idea about Lu Sisi's filthy thoughts; she seemed rather listless at the moment.
Gu Changzheng thought she was hungry.
"How about eating some fruit to tide you over first? Or having a glass of milk powder? I'll start cooking right away."
Gu Changzheng gently coaxed him.
Lu Huaijiao hummed in response and shook her head, then looked up at the man in front of her.
"Gu Changzheng".
"Um?"
Do you believe in karma?
Gu Changzheng did not expect Lu Huaijiao to ask this question.
He reached out and touched her hair.
Although he couldn't guess the reason for Lu Huaijiao's sudden depression, nor could he guess what kind of retribution she was talking about, he was certain of one thing.
"Jiaojiao".
"what?"
"With you as my man, no matter what happens, whether it's retribution or something else, I'll always be there to support you. So just do whatever you want to do."
If there really is retribution, then let it fall on yourself.
His little darling doesn't need to bother thinking about such things at all.
Lu Huaijiao blinked.
When her gaze met Gu Changzheng's focused and deep eyes, which seemed to draw her in, her heart skipped a beat.
As the two looked at each other, it seemed as if pink bubbles were rising from all around them.
I must say, the atmosphere is quite nice right now.
Lu Huaijiao was also tempted.
At this point, something should happen.
But the next second, Lu Huaijiao spoke up: "Gu Changzheng, do you want your child to starve to death?"
"It's taking so long and the food still isn't ready?"
Gu Changzheng chuckled.
For a fleeting moment, his delicate face flushed. Although she remained stubborn and didn't admit it, he was certain enough that she had fallen for him.
"Just a moment, I'll be right there, it'll be done in a minute."
He cupped her face and kissed her red lips hard. Gu Changzheng stood up happily and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
Lu Huaijiao sat on the sofa, humming and hawing, looking incredibly arrogant and awkward.
At this moment, 998 subtly reminded her in her mind, 'Host, your heartbeat has become abnormal.'
'so what? '
Why won't you admit you like him?
998 doesn't quite understand human emotions.
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue.
