Chapter 153 A World-Class Good Brother!
Lu Xia has always been clear about her position in the Lu family. On the surface, the Lu couple dotes on her, but that is only because she participated in a girl group talent show and became famous, which brought them honor in public.
Compared with her biological brother Lu Ziming, no matter what she did or said, as long as he was there, it would always be her fault.
She had deeply regretted more than once why she came back to the Lu family, even though she had never suffered such injustice in the Huo family.
But... When Lu Xia thought of the adoptive parents of the Huo family, she felt more hatred in her heart. Their family was obviously so rich, but they had to pretend to be poor. They were even more hypocritical and disgusting than her biological parents who were so ruthless and turned against her.
Lu Xia took a deep breath and suppressed some unbearable memories that were flooding into his mind.
Perhaps He Xiaoman realized that her words were a bit biased, so she reached out and patted the back of Lu Xia's hand, lowered her voice and said, "Your brother has a bad temper and speaks without restraint, but he doesn't have any bad intentions. You should be more tolerant of him."
Lu Xia twitched the corners of his lips, his expression returned to normal, and he hummed casually.
Lu Ziming had already walked over and sat lazily on the armrest of the sofa. He pretended to be bored and asked, "How many points did that coward get in the exam this time?"
Lu Xia looked at him, totally not understanding who he was talking about.
"What coward?" He Xiaoman asked in confusion.
Lu Ziming snorted coldly and said, "It's Lu Yao who was raised at her grandmother's house since she was a child. Oh no, I forgot that she has changed her last name to Huo."
When mentioning Huo Yao, Lu Xia's eyes became even colder.
"Why did you suddenly ask her why?" He Xiaoman asked.
Lu Ziming's eyes drifted away. "I'm just curious. Don't you always say that her grades are very bad? I just want to know how bad she is!"
Although He Xiaoman was not interested in her adopted daughter's grades, after hearing what her youngest son said, she turned her head and looked at Lu Xia.
Lu Xia was already upset today because Huo Yao got first place in the grade. When Lu Ziming asked her about it again, her tone immediately became a little impatient, "She and I are not in the same class, how do I know how many points she got?"
Seeing her tone suddenly become aggressive, Lu Ziming rolled his eyes and asked in a questioning tone, "Really? Then why did you look like you were bullied and wronged by her when you came back just now?"
Hearing this, Lu Xia subconsciously looked at He Xiaoman's face. Seeing that her expression had become gloomy again, she couldn't help but curse Lu Ziming countless times in her heart.
She had finally managed to divert her attention from the idea of calling the Huo family to question them in front of He Xiaoman, but this idiot actually brought the subject back. He really was... a world-class good brother!
After taking a deep breath, Lu Xia quickly slowed down his tone, "Of course I don't know. I'm not familiar with her. Why should I pay attention to her?"
After a pause, Lu Xia changed the subject and looked at Lu Ziming, "But you, you seem to care about her a lot?"
"Who cares about her? Don't talk nonsense." Lu Ziming was afraid that Lu Xia would tell others about the day he went to No. 1 Middle School to find Huo Yao and was beaten up. After saying this, he stood up and walked away as quickly as possible.
Seeing this, Lu Xia looked away with a sneer.
He Xiaoman didn't notice the undercurrent between the two. When she mentioned the results, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Lu Xia, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask you last time, was Huo Yao eliminated from the last city competition?"
Lu Ziming, who had just stepped onto the stairs, suddenly heard these words. He stopped and turned back.
