Chapter 354: Chapter 352: This Scene, It Pierced Her Eyes

After school.

Lu Ting gathered her textbooks and glanced at Jiang Huai.

Jiang Huai didn’t even look at her, kicked a chair in a bad mood, and stormed off angrily.

Lu Ting bit her lip tightly, her fingers clutching the textbooks fiercely.

She took a deep breath and quickly walked out of the classroom without looking back, as if Class 3-2 was some kind of den of evil.

The disappointed looks from her classmates made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Stepping out of the school gates, Lu Ting saw Lu Zhanxing.

Though he was wearing a mask, she recognized him at a glance. Her gaze paused, then she saw Lu Jingzhi sitting in the driver’s seat.

Lu Ting stood still, staring at them intently.

Seemingly aware of her gaze, the two men looked over.

Lu Ting couldn’t help feeling nervous and subconsciously met their eyes with an accusing stare.

However, those two just glanced at her then shifted their gaze away.

Lu Ting stood frozen, watching dumbfounded as Qiao Yun walked up to them, then saw Lu Zhanxing talking affectionately with Qiao Yun.

This scene stabbed at her eyes.

Lu Ting furrowed her brows and walked towards them, her face pale and her slender frame seeming about to collapse, “Big Brother, Second Brother, is everything fine at home?”

Lu Zhanxing and Lu Jingzhi hadn’t expected Lu Ting to come over.

After all, they had cut ties with her, and based on Lu Ting’s personality, she shouldn’t be seeking them out.

Seeing her like this, Lu Jingzhi didn’t feel any pity, perhaps because he had seen through her true colors and now meeting her only aroused suspicion of her motives.

Lu Zhanxing wasn’t kind to Lu Ting, “A family that abused you, and you’re still concerned about whether it’s doing well?”

“I…” Lu Ting opened her mouth, “It’s not like that. I didn’t tell them about the abuse, I didn’t speak ill of my family…”

“Enough,” Lu Zhanxing said impatiently, “I only believe what I see, no need to explain.”

“Second Brother…”

“Stop, I’m not your brother. I have only one sister; don’t go around claiming relatives.”

Lu Ting lowered her eyes, “No matter what, I have been your sister for so many years. Whether you acknowledge me or what you think of me, I will always consider you my brothers, and if you need help in the future, you can ask me.”

“Do you believe those words yourself? If you really felt that way, my sister wouldn’t have been misunderstood today. If the situation hadn’t been clarified, she would have been ostracized by the whole school by now and even labeled as your bully,” Lu Zhanxing said, thinking Lu Ting had come to irritate them on purpose.

How disgusting. She wanted to recognize him as her brother, but he wouldn’t even spare her a glance.

Lu Ting looked hurt.

Obviously, she hadn’t expected Lu Zhanxing to speak so harshly.

Seeing her like this, Lu Jingzhi’s frown deepened, “I always thought you knew what was appropriate. Now I see that’s not the case.”

Lu Ting looked at Lu Jingzhi in surprise.

If Lu Zhanxing was heartless, then Big Brother was merciless.

“Let’s go,” Qiao Yun tugged at Lu Zhanxing’s sleeve.

The school was crowded, and if people saw Lu Zhanxing, it would cause a sensation.

“We’ve already made it clear to you, from now on we have no relation. We’ve done you no wrong, so don’t go too far,” they said.

Lu Zhanxing warned Lu Ting, then let Qiao Yun get in the car, and added to Lu Ting, “And one more thing, remember to change your surname; after all, you’re no longer a Lu.”

Before Lu Ting could respond, the car sped away.

Lu Ting watched the luxury car drive off, feeling a sharp pain in her heart, as if something had finally been completely and utterly lost.

Through the rearview mirror, Lu Jingzhi saw Lu Ting standing on the side of the road, a picture of desolation.

He sighed.

Lu Zhanxing chuckled, “Big Brother, you’re not feeling sentimental, are you? Should we go back?”

“Don’t tease me,” Lu Jingzhi shook his head, “I was just wondering why she turned out this way.”

“Human nature is hard to change. Have you finally realized she’s not simple?” Lu Zhanxing said pointedly.

Lu Jingzhi’s expression grew dark.

He thought that after Lu Ting was chased out of the Lu Family, roads would diverge, but he hadn’t expected her to target Qiao Yun at school.

Lu Jingzhi glanced at Qiao Yun’s expression and, seeing she was relatively unaffected, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Zhanxing asked Qiao Yun directly, “We’re aware of the issue between you and Lu Ting. Has it affected you?”

“No,” Qiao Yun explained, “The clarification was timely, and it didn’t affect me. Lu Ting apologized to me, but I didn’t accept it.”

“Right! Why accept it? She’s made a huge mistake.”

Lu Zhanxing was somewhat speechless, wondering what exactly Lu Ting wanted to do. She used to be so proud; they treated her like this, and yet she still insisted on approaching them.

Qiao Yun’s delicate face showed no emotion as she said simply, “Ignore her.”

“Good, we’ll ignore her,” Lu Zhanxing nodded, “The more attention we give her, the more it seems like we care.”

Qiao Yun agreed.

Lu Ting’s intentions were not hard to guess.

It was just unwillingness.

But there are countless disappointments in the world, and things can’t always turn out as one desires.

…

Lu Ting felt very complicated as she returned to the ice-cold He Family, only to be informed by Ya Man, who looked displeased.

“Now that Old He is still unconscious, we’ll cancel your welcome banquet. It’s not appropriate. We’ll just have a family dinner instead,” she was told.

Lu Ting couldn’t help challenging Ya Man, “Why? I wanted to let them know with this banquet that even if I leave, I can still live well. How can you go back on your word now!”
