After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 77 - : This Stupid Woman Actually Self-Destructed
Chapter 77: Chapter 77: This Stupid Woman Actually Self-Destructed
She deliberately gave Xia Wenjin a “brilliant” but insincere smile as she spoke.
Lu Zhaozhao was actually worried that Mr. Song of the Lu Family would lose his appetite from being fixated on by Xia Wenjin.
Of course, another reason was that she was irked to see another woman eyeing her man right under her nose.
Xia Wenjin clenched her fists in frustration and almost bit her back teeth as she looked at Lu Zhaozhao and said, “Sister, you really have a sense of humor. President Song and I aren’t exactly strangers, right? After all, President Song personally assisted our Lu Family. He has indeed been a benefactor to us.”
Lu Zhaozhao was downright dismissive, “You might be mistaken. Currently, Mr. Song and the Lu Family just have a simple borrower-lender relationship; it’s better to minimize claiming other associations.”
“…”
...
With Old Master Song present, Xia Wenjin couldn’t outright pick a fight with Lu Zhaozhao.
She could only purse her lips in grievance, “Sister, you really don’t need to be so confrontational with me. I just want to get to know President Song better, especially since there is a marriage union between the Song and Lu families.”
Watching her put on a facade of an innocent white lotus, Lu Zhaozhao’s lips quirked, “That’s uncertain since I’m not actually a daughter of the Lu Family.”
“…”
The words Xia Wenjin intended to say suddenly got stuck in her throat. Her initial plan was to make Lu Zhaozhao realize her own pretense, continually emphasizing the relationship between the Song and Lu families.
Unexpectedly, this foolish woman exposed herself.
This would give Old Master Song the perfect chance to see her true nature.
Xiao Jinglan never anticipated that the situation would suddenly shift in their favor.
While she was feeling smug about it, she then heard Old Master Song say, “Zhaozhao, this chicken wing is really tasty, you should try it.”
Xiao Jinglan: “???”
Xia Wenjin: “???”
Did Old Master Song not hear?
Lu Zhaozhao exposed herself, yet Old Master Song showed no reaction?
Xia Wenjin and Xiao Jinglan exchanged glances, neither daring to provoke Old Master Song’s displeasure, so they could only silently continue eating.
It might have been because Old Master Song was overly enthusiastic during the meal, serving Lu Zhaozhao quite a bit of food.
Lu Zhaozhao just smiled and ate quietly, but still pushed the food she disliked to the side.
Xiao Jinglan and Xia Wenjin, closely observing Lu Zhaozhao, couldn’t miss her subtle gestures.
But how could they discreetly inform Old Master Song?
As Xiao Jinglan was pondering this, Xia Wenjin was the first to speak up, “Sister is still the same as before. I heard from Mrs. Lu that you’ve always disliked spinach, and it seems you still don’t like it now.”
She had heard from Xiao Jinglan that Old Master Song really disliked people who were picky eaters, and she didn’t believe Lu Zhaozhao could escape this so easily!
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Old Master Song’s eyebrows instantly furrowed.
Xiao Jinglan shot Xia Wenjin a “well done” look as they sat back and quietly watched.
Song Sinian sat beside them, raising his eyebrows slightly before turning to look at Lu Zhaozhao, “You don’t like spinach?”
Lu Zhaozhao pursed her lips slightly and nodded softly.

Although spinach was a leafy green, she had always felt it tasted strangely sweet and cloying, so she didn’t like it much.
Song Sinian lifted his chopsticks straight from her plate and ate it himself.
“If you don’t like something, leave it on my plate.”
His indifferent voice echoed in the silent dining room, causing Old Master Song to frown even harder.
Hmm, let this cheeky kid show off!
Old Master Song cleared his throat before speaking, “Grandpa wasn’t aware of your dislikes. Next time you come, I won’t have them prepare it.”
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
“…”
“…”
“…”
Even Xia Wenjin, let alone Xiao Jinglan, began to doubt life itself.
Had Lu Zhaozhao bewitched Old Master Song?
After dinner, Song Sinian gently held Lu Zhaozhao’s small hand under the table.
Her soft, boneless fingertips felt very comfortable in his palm.
“Sinian, why don’t you show Zhaozhao around the Song Mansion? After all, it’s her first visit,” Old Master Song nudged his chin up slightly, decisively giving them a chance to be alone.
Song Sinian pondered for a moment and asked Lu Zhaozhao, “Do you want to see it?”
Lu Zhaozhao actually wasn’t very interested.
In her previous life, when she hadn’t lived in the villa, she had always been at the Song Mansion.
However, at that time, she had no interest in exploring the mansion, so there were indeed many places she didn’t know.
Thinking this, Lu Zhaozhao nodded and said with a curved smile, “Then please, Mr. Song, show me around.”
Just as she finished speaking, Xia Wenjin also stood up, “Sister, since we’re going for a tour, can you take me along too?”
Although Xia Wenjin was speaking to Lu Zhaozhao, her gaze was fixed on Song Sinian.
Her intention was too obvious, especially when Song Sinian looked at her, she immediately spoke again, “President Song, you wouldn’t mind, would you?”
“I do mind.” Right after Xia Wenjin finished speaking, Song Sinian’s response came.
He didn’t give her any face at all.
Xia Wenjin stood there feeling a bit embarrassed, clenching her fists tightly.
Old Master Song glanced at her, displeased by her lack of tact, and ordered, “Butler, arrange for someone to take this daughter of the Lu Family around later.”
“Yes, my lord.”
Old Master Song got up and left the dining room, followed naturally by Song Sinian and Lu Zhaozhao.
Watching Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian leave the dining room, Xia Wenjin’s eyes darkened.
That damned Lu Zhaozhao must have said bad things about her in front of Song Sinian, which explained his harsh attitude toward her.
Xiao Jinglan glanced at Xia Wenjin, noting her eyes filled with resentment toward Lu Zhaozhao. She snorted silently, but her expression remained extremely amiable.
“Jin, Sinian is just like that, even towards Old Master Song and me, so don’t take it to heart.”
Xia Wenjin narrowed her eyes. He was like that even towards Old Master Song and Xiao Jinglan?
So, it was only special between him and Lu Zhaozhao?
Hmph!
Lu Zhaozhao must have seduced Song Sinian!
That shameless woman!
She would eventually drive her away from Song Sinian’s side!
“Achoo!” Lu Zhaozhao, walking in the yard, suddenly sneezed.
Seeing this, Song Sinian immediately took off his suit jacket and wrapped it around Zhaozhao.
Her physique was already petite, so his jacket almost covered most of her.
Song Sinian frowned slightly, “Wearing so little outside can make you sick.”
Lu Zhaozhao was always excessively delicate, even the slightest carelessness could hurt her.
What if she caught a cold?
Lu Zhaozhao looked at Song Sinian, as if suddenly remembering something, and immediately grabbed his hand, leading him towards the garden…
