Chapter 86 - Strange Big Sister belongs to me. (1)

It quieted down around them and, the next second, Lu Shenyuan walked straight past all of them leisurely as though he had seen nothing.

“What did he mean by that, Brother Shang?” The boy was baffled. “Do you think he is going to get others?”

Song Jingshang snickered and said in a meaningful way, “What you so nervous about? We’ve done nothing.”

Ning Zhi, watching as Lu Shenyuan departed, gritted her teeth.

She should have known, Lu Shenyuan had been targeting Lu Jue since he was a child. Of course he would not lift a finger now that he saw Lu Jue being bullied.

The other boys understood what Song Jingshang meant and felt an instant relief.

The Beauty Queen said, “Jingshang, let’s go. I am getting hungry.” She was tired from standing and didn’t want to stay there any longer.

She didn’t really like Lu Jue. She was merely using him to spite her boyfriend. Now that she was back together with Song Jingshang, she no longer wished to waste any more time on the fool.

“Brother Shang, the beauty queen said she is hungry. You should feed her as her boyfriend.” The boys started to tease.

“Alright, let’s go. Dinner’s on me,” said Song Jingshang as he lifted his brows.

From Ning Zhi’s perspective, this group was stupid and bad.

Song Jingshang left with his group.

Ning Zhi only had 10 little suns left. She spent one of them and picked up Lu Jue’s red backpack from the ground.

Ning Zhi patted away the footprints on it and placed it back into Lu Jue’s hand. She picked up his other hand and said, “Let’s go. I’ll take you home.”

The Lu family’s chauffeur was waiting at the front door. Ning Zhi saw Lu Shenyuan sitting inside the car.

She gave him a few intense stares.

Ning Zhi wasn’t an impulsive one. Even though she had noticed the abnormalities about Lu Shenyuan, she would not rashly run and told that to Mother for Father Lu.

She knew full well that Lu Shenyuan had put up a great front. He had always acted as the perfect son in front of Father and Mother Lu.

There was no way that Mother Lu and the others would believe in what she was telling them had she told them about Lu Shenyuan now.

She had only been married into the Lu family for six months and had a rap sheet. Lu Shenyuan, on the other hand, had been a filial son and good brother for over 20 years.

Most important, she had no concrete proof at all that could support that Lu Shenyuan wasn’t the good brother that he pretended to be.

Lu Shenyuan looked calm as usual when he saw Lu Jue getting inside the car. He said to the chauffeur, “Xiao Jue is here. Uncle Chen, we can head out now.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Back at the Lu’s place.

Ning Zhi saw Mother Lu in the living room. She was smiling and she walked up to take the backpack from Lu Jue but Lu Jue avoided her.

He went upstairs with his backpack without saying a word.

Lu Shenyuan said caringly, “Mom, I’m back. There’s quite a bit of homework today.”

Mother Lu smiled and said, “Oh okay. Go start on them then. I’ll go get you when dinner is ready.”

Smiling, Lu Shenyuan said, “Okay. Thanks, Mom.”

One of them quiet and cold and the other mature and docile, and knew how to appease others.

The contrast between Lu Jue and Lu Shenyuan were stark.

Ning Zhi couldn't help but gave Lu Shenyuan a few more stares. He did that on purpose. He played the role of the perfect son to contrast how bad Lu Jue was.

Lu Jue had already gone upstairs.

Ning Zhi, not wanting to look at Lu Shenyuan’s face, went upstairs as well.

She opened up Lu Jue’s room door with familiarity.

She noticed that all of the curtains in the room had been drawn shut and it was dark inside the room.

She walked inside and closed the door. It became even darker.

She shuffled forward to get closer to Lu Jue.

For autistic individuals, they can stay inside a dark room with no trouble navigating through it and finding what they need.

Ning Zhi could make out a tall, dark silhouette in front of the desk.

She walked over.

“Lu Jue.” Ning Zhi sat down next to him. “It’s so dark in here. I can barely see you.”

She could only make out his shape.

In the dark, Lu Jue sudden reached his hand out and placed it on Ning Zhi’s face.
