Chapter 28: Xiao Xueling
She knew how ugly the Xiao family was to her now, why did she still come to congratulate Xiao Zongyun on her birthday?
It was because Xiao Zongyun was not present when she came to the Xiao family for help and suffered all kinds of humiliation from the Xiao family, so she fantasized that maybe Xiao Zongyun would not be like the other Xiao family, after all, this was her biological father.
Now hearing Xiao Zongyun's words, her fantasy was finally ruthlessly shattered, and she faced the reality and knew how naΓ―ve she was before.
If it weren't for Xiao Zongyun's approval, how could the Xiao family dare to treat themselves like that? If Xiao Zongyun wasn't that kind of person, how could he have known about their family's hardships all the past year, but they still turned a blind eye?
At this moment, Xiao Rou regretted it, and she regretted coming to this birthday banquet very much.
Xiao Rou had an urge to leave now, but in the end she restrained herself, no matter what, Xiao Zongyun is her father, since she has come, let's wait until she finishes sending the congratulatory gift before leaving, however, she also swears in her heart that when she steps out of the door of the Xiao family today, she will have nothing to do with the Xiao family!
"Old bastard!"
Xiao Zongyun's mean and ruthless words, Lu Tianfeng and Lu Chen also heard it, and saw that Xiao Rou was almost made to cry, and the two fathers and sons gritted their teeth angrily, but at this time, it was not the time to be angry, but looked at Xiao Rou distressedly and asked, "Rou'er (mother), are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Xiao Rou cleaned up her mood, barely squeezed out a smile, and said, "Later, after we send the congratulatory gifts, let's leave." β
"Yes, listen to you. Lu Tianfeng and Lu Chen nodded.
Lu Tianfeng, who used to be the third master of the Lu family, is now just a wasted person, and today he came to congratulate Xiao Zongyun on his birthday, which naturally attracted the attention of countless people and became the focus of the audience.
"I think that when this Lu Tianfeng was still the third master of the Lu family, how majestic it was, wherever he went, everyone had to call Lu Sanye politely, not to say, but also to give face, to this Xiao family, he could sit side by side with the old man Xiao, but now he has been reduced to sitting with the slaves of the Xiao family, it is really embarrassing!"
"Hey, you just heard what Old Man Xiao said, right? This family came to celebrate his birthday today is fake, and the real purpose is to eat, drink, and make money, but in the past, he was also Lu Sanye, but now he is doing this kind of thing, it's really shameless!"
"I said that this Lu Tianfeng is not good to shrink in that Tieniu Village to survive, and what are you doing when you run outside to embarrass people, it turns out that this is because of this. β
β......β
Bursts of ridicule and ridicule continued to sound.
Xiao Rou looked at Lu Tianfeng with an apologetic face and said, "Brother Feng, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for insisting on coming to this birthday banquet, which hurts you......"
Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Lu Tianfeng hugged Xiao Rou into his arms with a gentle smile on his face, and said, "Fool, what are you talking about, this has nothing to do with you, don't think about it." β
He looked as usual, and he didn't get angry at those taunts, because he was used to it for a long time and didn't care at all.
Lu Chen exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "Dad, mother, it's too stuffy here, I'll go out to breathe." β
He couldn't stay here anymore, and if he stayed, he was afraid that he would be tempted to teach these bastards a lesson.
Xiao Rou also knew that it was a torment to let Lu Chen continue to stay here, so she nodded and said, "Then you go, remember not to go far, we won't be sitting for long and will have to go back." β
"Got it. β
Lu Chen hummed, then got up and left the banquet hall.
Walking outside, he wandered aimlessly, perhaps full of thoughts about leaving the Xiao family quickly, and unconsciously, he walked to the gate of the Xiao family's mansion.
At this time, a group of teenagers and girls walked in together, talking and laughing.
This is the younger generation of the Xiao family.
Among this group of people, there is a girl who is particularly eye-catching, she is beautiful, tall, wearing a long white dress, exuding a cold and arrogant temperament, if Li Lu from Tieniu Village is put with this girl, it will let people know what a phoenix is and what a pheasant is.
Seeing this woman, Lu Chen, who had not had a good face since he came to Xiao's house, finally smiled at this moment.
This woman's name is Xiao Xueling, and she is the daughter of Xiao Langsheng.
He has known Xiao Xueling since he was a child, and everyone laughs at him because he is a waste, even if he is afraid of his father Lu Tianfeng and does not dare to say anything in person, there are all kinds of malicious ridicule behind him, but Xiao Xueling has never been like this, but when others are squeezing out and isolating him, he stays with him, so the relationship is very good.
Later, his family suffered a great change and moved to Tieniu Village, so he broke off contact with Xiao Xueling and had not seen each other for more than a year.
However, Lu Chen felt that with his relationship with Xiao Xueling, even if they hadn't seen each other for more than a year, they could still be the same as they were at the beginning.
Just when Lu Chen wanted to say hello, suddenly, a round-faced girl ran to Xiao Xueling's side and smiled mysteriously: "Sister Xueling, do you know who is here today?"
"Who?" Xiao Xueling asked.
The round-faced girl said, "Lu Chen, it's Lu Chen!"
"Lu Chen?" Xiao Xueling raised her eyebrows, and then said indifferently: "Oh." β
The round-faced girl didn't seem to expect Xiao Xueling's reaction to be so cold, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Sister Xueling, isn't your relationship with that Lu Chen very good, is it a childhood sweetheart?
"Childhood sweetheart, hehe!" A sneer appeared on Xiao Xueling's face: "Do you still naively think that I stay with Lu Chen all day because I have a good impression of him and fall in love with him, right?"
"To tell you the truth, the reason why I made compromises and endured nausea and stayed with that Lu Chen all day long was because although Lu Chen was a waste, his father was Lu Sanye, so I approached Lu Chen and wanted to use his hand to get benefits from Lu Tianfeng!"
"I thought it would be very difficult to accomplish these things, but I didn't expect that Lu Chen was not only a waste, but also a fool, I just coaxed me with words, and he gave me the Lu family's allocation and the cultivation resources his father gave him. β
Speaking of this, a disgusting proud smile appeared on Xiao Xueling's pretty face, and she was not ashamed of her insidious and despicable behavior, but was proud.
Not only Xiao Xueling is like this, but when the younger generations of the Xiao family next to him heard this, none of them despised Xiao Xueling, but instead showed envy and admiration, and said again and again:
"Ah, why didn't I think of this in the first place, if I also thought of such a good idea like Sister Xue Ling, I should be able to cheat some benefits from Lu Chen's idiot and speed up my cultivation progress!"
"Hehe, don't be delusional, how could such a good idea come up with you. β
"That's right, only a genius like Sister Xue Ling can come up with such a good way. β
