Chapter 22: Joke

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Zhenzhen, I didn’t. I was really too busy to come see you the other day.”

Lu Zhen was annoyed by him and could only wave her hand to dismiss him. “If you still treat me as your girlfriend, please leave now. I want to rest.”

After being rejected twice by Lu Zhen, Jin Zhan’s expression turned a little ugly. After all, he was the young master of the Jin family. Others would more or less give him some face. Only Lu Zhen had always looked so aloof.

Jin Zhan’s expression darkened. Seeing that Lu Zhen went to tidy up the bed and didn’t want to talk to him, he couldn’t stay any longer and could only leave hatefully.

Sun Xiao stuck her tongue out at Jin Zhan’s back. Scumbag! How could he be so righteous when he was cheating?!

Lu Zhen lifted the thin blanket and pillow. A miniature recording pen was lying there quietly.

“Eh? Sister Zhenzhen, what’s this?”

“Something I left behind before we left.”

Sun Xiao took the recorder and looked at it. Her eyes sparkled as she gave Lu Zhen a thumbs-up.

“Sister Zhenzhen, in just two days, I feel like I’ve lived half my life. In the past, although you worked hard, you still had a family. But now, I don’t think so. It’s better not to have such a family.”

Lu Zhen rubbed Sun Xiao’s hair and smiled. “A good family is the most precious thing in the world. I’m not family to Lu Rou and the others.”

Thinking of her real father, Lu Zhen felt emotional.

In her previous life, after Lu Rou replaced her as her father’s daughter, her father doted on her and wished he could bring all the precious treasures in the world to her.

At that time, she was in deep trouble and didn’t dare to taint those beautiful things with her muddy hands. She couldn’t bear to let her father know that his real daughter was like this. Instead of letting her become a stain on her father’s reputation, she might as well watch from a small corner.

Tears rolled down Lu Zhen’s cheeks. She had let her father down.

“Sister Zhenzhen, what’s wrong?” Sun Xiao asked in confusion.

“It’s fine. I wish I could get away from the Lu family one day.”

“You will. Sister Zhenzhen, I believe you.”

…

The next day, the incident continued to fester.

Although Demon Hunter Master and Entertainment News Everyday deleted the audio, many netizens had already saved it.

The paparazzi in the entertainment industry knew how to judge the situation best. Although the revelations about the Lu sisters would increase their fame, the things revealed in the audio wasn’t something they could get involved in.

Therefore, Lu Zhen was certain that it would be deleted soon after the audio was uploaded. If she forgave Lu Rou a day later, she wouldn’t embarrass the paparazzi who spoke up for her.

As Lu Zhen didn’t post anything that mentioned she forgave Lu Rou, Lu Rou didn’t dare to go out. She didn’t even dare to look at her phone. As long as it was a social media app, someone would mention the grudges between the Lu sisters. This feeling of being insulted all the time almost drove Lu Rou crazy.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhen, who was chewing an apple in the ward, received a call from the director. He said that he hoped that Lu Zhen could make a trip to the set. There were some plotlines that he wanted to communicate with her about.

As soon as she left with Sun Xiao, Lu Zhen met Jin Zhan, who had come to bring her breakfast.

“Zhenzhen, I was wrong before. I’m sorry. Can you forgive me?”

As soon as they met, Lu Zhen heard Jin Zhan say this.

Glancing at the breakfast in Jin Zhan’s hand, Lu Zhen’s eyes flashed with mockery.

It would be more accurate to say that she was the only one who felt that they were childhood sweethearts.

After nearly ten years together, Jin Zhan didn’t know what she liked.

Although he said that he liked her, the truth was that he never put any effort into the gifts he gave her. He didn’t even care about her health.

After spending so much time together, she really didn’t know if it was her fault or if Jin Zhan was too cold-blooded.

Back then, Jin Zhan had spent a lot of effort wooing her. However, in fact, all the tricks he used to woo her were taught to him by his lover. Even his gifts were chosen by his lover. Lin Wan had arrogantly told her everything. She felt that her life was like a joke.

“Jin Zhan, I think we both need to calm down. As the young master of the Jin family, you don’t lack anything. You can have any girl you want. There are countless women who want to be your wife. Why do you want me to be your girlfriend?”
