Lu Baofei hid upstairs, not daring to come down to share the fire with her elder sister.
She rose to fame at a young age, following in her father's footsteps from a naive young girl to a capable and powerful businesswoman!
Whether it's due to his own exceptional talent or his reliance on the reputation and wealth of the Lu family group to get to where he is today, he has never felt so powerless and frustrated as he does now.
Lu Yi's annual expenses don't even equal the cost of one set of her cosmetics.
Yet this poor younger brother always manages to make her reflect on herself uncontrollably from some tricky angles!
For example, last night, she was just there to discuss a deal.
Lu Yi warned her to prioritize being a good person before doing anything else!
Is she, the second young lady of the Lu family and also the young CEO of the Lu family, such a failure as a person?
If she were truly as unsuccessful as he described, she would never have become the idol of so many girls.
Does Lu Yi even understand girls?
He's just a hothead!
Look at Lu Han, she's sweet-talking and knows how to read people's expressions, so she never offends anyone.
There's a reason why so many people in his family spoil him.
If Lu Yi had only learned a little bit, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation. He's not stupid, so why can't he understand this?
"Second sister, may I come in and sit for a while?"
As Lu Baofei was lost in thought, Lu Baoyun's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
She quickly got up and opened the door.
"Fourth Sister, why didn't you go down for breakfast? Where's Baoqi?"
Lu Baoyun walked in, shrugged, and said, "Last night she secretly bought some alcohol and got completely drunk in my room. She hasn't woken up yet!"
Lu Baofei exclaimed in surprise.
"With the family in such a mess, she still has the mind to drink. Isn't she afraid that her parents will find out? Honestly!"
The Lu family's upbringing wasn't too strict.
However, the regulations are not lenient enough to allow women to drink excessively.
Especially when her parents were at their wits' end because of Lu Han, her quiet drinking and brooding made them suspicious that she wasn't taking care of her younger brother.
"Second sister, don't shout so loudly, Mom is still downstairs!"
Lu Baoyun opened the door, glanced at the stairwell, and raised her index finger to warn her to stay alert.
Lu Baofei lowered her head and leaned against the large wardrobe. "This house is becoming more and more incomprehensible!"
She said this from the heart.
It wasn't that I saw Lu Baoyun and deliberately complained to her.
After saying that, he looked at Bao Yun and felt a pang of envy towards her.
"Second sister, actually I wanted to..."
Lu Baoyun hesitated, biting her lip, and didn't continue speaking.
She wasn't very close to her second sister.
But I wasn't as reserved as when facing a stranger.
But the words that were so familiar to him just moments before, he simply couldn't bring himself to say them.
“Baoyun, what’s bothering me? Is Baoqi having another nightmare? It’s okay, I’ll take her to see a psychologist when I have time.”
Lu Baofei said in a gentle tone.
Lu Baoyun shook her head, bit her lip, took a deep breath, and mustered her courage to stare at her second sister's face.
"It's not about Third Sister, it's about Lu Yi."
"Second sister, could you please stop bothering Lu Yi? He's been working so hard to get rid of the influence of the Lu family..."
“Every time we appear in front of him, he loses all his previous efforts and gets into even bigger trouble.”
“We are the ones who should reflect on this, not Lu Yi. Don’t you think so, Second Sister…”
Her voice grew softer and softer, and her gaze gradually shifted from looking straight ahead to staring at her toes.
Lu Baoyun knew that she was the least qualified person in the family to give orders.
But she really didn't want to see the unique energy field that Lu Yi had worked so hard to build destroyed by them time and time again!
If she hadn't witnessed Lu Yi's heartbroken expression firsthand, she wouldn't have felt it so deeply.
Lu Yi has had a much harder time than any of them!
Why should everyone derive emotional nourishment from him just to make themselves feel better?
"Baoyun, what...what do you mean by that?"
"Even you think it was a mistake for me to ask Lu Yi for a letter of forgiveness yesterday?"
Lu Baofei was stunned for a long time, as if struck by lightning, before she could utter a few trembling sounds from her throat.
Lu Yi's icy face and his nonchalant sneer reappeared before her eyes.
That feeling terrified her.
This is even more shocking than hearing that the Fan family snatched away their client.
"Second sister, I don't understand what forgiveness is. Everyone has their own considerations. If the other party deserves forgiveness, they will naturally forgive without needing anyone else's opinion."
"But if the other party isn't worth it, even if you give them mountains of gold and silver, how can that make up for their lingering resentment!"
Lu Baoyun didn't expect her second sister to react so strongly!
He waved his hand, took a few steps back, and gave a rapid-fire explanation.
However, her explanation only made Lu Baofei's expression turn even uglier.
If Lu Yi's actions were a wake-up call for her, then Lu Baoyun's actions were tantamount to a punch to the back of her head.
She was beaten so badly that she could hardly breathe.
"Second sister... just consider this me rambling on because I was bored. I'm going back to my room to check on third sister..."
Lu Baoyun dared not stay any longer.
She lowered her eyes, opened the door, and ran back to her room.
...
The procedures went smoothly, except that the officer in charge of the case was not Officer Ma, but a completely different person.
There were no cameras or microphones as expected outside the police station; only a few passersby were secretly recording videos with their phones, their faces mocking.
Lu Baozhi didn't say a word from the moment she entered until she left.
Lu Zhengming's hatred was almost uncontrollable.
Fortunately, the lawyer was good at reading people and took the initiative to act as a peacemaker after receiving Lu Han.
"Mr. Lu, it's fortunate that Miss only nodded and didn't speak, otherwise there might have been complications and we wouldn't have been able to pick up the young master so quickly."
Lu Zhengming snorted, "She's unhappy to see her younger brother!"
Seeing that her father wouldn't even show her this much leniency, Lu Baozhi pursed her lips tighter and tighter.
She even turned her face away, deliberately letting passersby take photos, without offering any comfort to Lu Han.
"No, my eldest sister has always doted on me the most. Not long ago, she even secretly gave me pocket money behind Mom and Dad's back. Why would she be unhappy to see me, right, eldest sister!"
Lu Han frowned, her eyes puffy with dark circles, and grabbed Lu Baozhi's arm.
He tried his best to show his father the close relationship between him and his eldest sister.
This time, he truly tasted the feeling of being despised, especially by Officer Ma, who treated him like a criminal from the very beginning!
Fortunately, the police officer was quite amiable later on, otherwise he was afraid he wouldn't have been able to hold back and would have revealed the truth.
Noticing the change in Lu Baozhi's attitude towards him, Lu Han sobbed, grabbed Lu Baozhi's hand, and slapped himself in the face!
"Big sister, it's my fault. I thought I was capable of fixing your car, but I didn't expect it would cause you to misunderstand and lead to such a serious car accident for you and my brother!"
"You can hit me, as long as you're happy, I don't care what happens!"
"I'll go find my brother right now to atone for my sins. I'll definitely clear up this misunderstanding..."
Lu Han's shoulders were heaving as she cried, she looked so pitiful!
