The Master's Mask Unveiled Again - Chapter 4
Chapter 4: The Taboo of the Lu Family
Editor: Atlas Studios
Of course, only a handful of people knew all the details of the kidnapping.
The truth had been sealed away much earlier. As far as the public was concerned, only five people were kidnapped and rescued a year later. The other four could not be treated. Lu Mian was the only one left.
Ye Jinwen’s eyes filled with resolve at this thought.
No matter what, he had to help Lu Mian walk out of this. He wanted to save her!
“Seventh brother, how do you think Lu Mian will face her parents, who gave her up, and her sister, with whom she was kidnapped? But there was nothing that could be done. If they could, her parents would have saved her back then…”
When he said that, Xiao Qimo got up, brushed away the imaginary dust on himself and left without looking back.
It was the exact same set of movements as Lu Mian!
Ye Jinwen’s eyes followed Xiao Qimo to the door, only to hear him chuckle.
“You don’t have to worry about it.”
“… Ah?” Ye Jinwen felt like there were multiple meanings in that statement.
He then heard Xiao Qimo’s voice drift over.
“Just a reminder.” The man curled his lips into an elegant smile. “Next time, don’t watch her spin the pen.”
Pen spinning?
A layer of cold sweat formed down Ye Jinwen’s back at the same instant.
If he had thought that Lu Mian was just bored, then looking back at it, it was clear that the other party was doing this consciously!
No wonder he felt restless and ditzy during the conversation.
Lu Mian had hypnotized him before he could do it to her!
He was probably the first psychologist to be controlled by his patient!
He felt deflated. How was he to face Lu Mian in the future!
…
Lu Mian took another look at the signboard as she left the clinic. Her beautiful face had a dubious smile on it.
I don’t think I’ll come here ever again.
Even if Dr Ye didn’t notice, the person behind the surveillance should have caught it.
But I wonder who that was.
As if freed from a load, she left lightheartedly…
The family mansion of the Lu Family.
Lu Mian walked around the impressive main building, walking a long distance to get to the annex.
On her way, all servants of the main building greeted her respectfully before they ran aside to gossip.
“Look, it’s Big Missy Lu! Stay away from her, I feel like she has a serious psychological problem…”
“Big Madam is scared of her, and specially found a psychologist to treat her!”
“What a waste of her face… It’s good-looking, but she’s evil in nature. I like the gentle, adorable and talented Second Missy!”
“I think Big Missy Lu is quite pitiful. If Big Madam had been willing to borrow more money, she would not have been taken. To put it plainly, they were just afraid of racking up more debt, so they were unwilling to save her. Look at her family, they’re still staying in the annex now. If our Master didn’t take them in, they wouldn’t even have a place to live in…”
“Shh! These things are taboo in the Lu Family, don’t let Big Missy Lu hear you! Hurry up and leave…”
The northwestern annex of the Lu Family mansion.
There were no servants here.
Lu Mian headed straight to her room when she saw that there was no one in the living room.
Her mother, Fu Man, only came out of the kitchen quietly when she heard the room door close.
Her expression was ugly as she glanced upstairs and knitted her brows together.
The annex was suspiciously quiet, left only with her disgruntled sigh.
The ambiance only turned for the better when a young girl appeared in the living room.
