Chapter 83: Acting Like The Loving Sister

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Ziming was He Xiaoman’s favorite child. Since a young age, he had always been a bright child. In the Lu family, almost everyone pampered him dearly. Hence, he developed a willful personality and treated everyone rudely. He was now a classic arrogant and ill-bred young man from a rich and powerful family.

Lu Ziming and Huo Yao had barely seen each other since they did not grow up together. When He Xiaoman occasionally sent for Huo Yao to come home during the Chinese New Year, the willful Lu Ziming would take the opportunity to bully and frame her.

Most of the members of the Lu family detested Huo Yao because of Lu Ziming.

“Hey, you coward. Why didn’t you greet me when you came in?” asked Lu Ziming arrogantly as he placed his phone in his pocket.

Huo Yao did not even bother to look in his direction. She merely turned around to take a clean glass and poured some water in it. Then she put the medicine she brought from home into the glass at an angle which was hidden from everyone.

Lu Ziming walked around the table to reach Huo Yao. He said, “Hey, I’m talking to you! Are you deaf?”

Lu Xia’s lips twitched when she witnessed this. She appeared to eagerly wait for Lu Ziming to make trouble for Huo Yao.

The glass swirled in Huo Yao’s hand for a moment. Then she turned around as though Lu Ziming was not there and handed the water to the old lady. She said, “Drink some water.”

Lu Ziming was terribly annoyed about being ignored. He raised his hand to snatch the glass from Huo Yao just as his grandmother was about to take it and said, “Lu Yao, how dare you...”

But suddenly Lu Ziming sensed a pain on his wrist before he could finish his sentence. He was swiftly yanked so hard that he staggered and fell on the ground. When he looked up to see Huo Yao’s frosty eyes, he instinctively shivered.

“Didn’t your mother teach you any manners?” asked Huo Yao as she towered over Lu Ziming with a cold light glinting in her deep eyes.

Despite her soft tone, a threatening aura radiated from her.

Fear ran through Lu Ziming’s heart as though he was a tiger’s prey. Despite the pain in his wrist, it could not compare to the panic that Huo Yao’s eyes were sending to his veins. He mumbled in a trembling tone. “Let... Let me go.”

When Huo Yao saw how cowardly Lu Ziming had turned out to be after he was outdone, she sneered at him contemptuously. “Don’t be a bully if you don’t have the guts. You’re such a wimp.”

Then she let go of Lu Ziming’s hand.

Lu Ziming’s face had turned ghastly pale. There was something hovering at the tip of his tongue as he held his aching wrist, but he did not dare to speak up. It seemed as though he had gotten quite a shock.

Lu Xia composed herself and glanced at Lu Ziming before walking over to stand in front of him.

She said gently, “Huo Yao, how can you hurt a kid? Lu Ziming used to be your little brother after all!”

Huo Yao raised her brow as her eyes landed on Lu Xia’s face. She playfully laughed and said, “Are you acting like a loving sister coming to her little brother’s aid now?”

Lu Xia frowned. “You...”

Lu Ziming shoved Lu Xia aside before she could finish her sentence. He was already incredibly embarrassed by Huo Yao and felt that Lu Xia was only worsening the matter. In the end, he glared at Huo Yao furiously and left the room in a huff.

Lu Xia felt somewhat embarrassed by his actions and stood stockstill.

Moments later, Lu Ziming came back to the door and said, “Mom, why are you still hanging around here? If someone wants to take care of Grandma, then leave her to it.”

Saying so, he turned to leave for good without bothering to look back.

Since He Xiaoman had always indulged her son, she chased after him, not even stopping to reprimand Huo Yao.

Lu Xia was left behind to suffer the mortification all alone in that moment.
