After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

Lan Miao's expression was quite varied.

Seeing that things were not going well, Zhu Jinming quickly said, "Mr. Liang has always had a very good reputation. Who knows if you are just taking advantage of his good temper and finding someone to take the blame at the last minute?"

Lu Sijian looked at him meaningfully, "How come I didn't know you and Gu Sheng were so close?"

Zhu Jinming: "I'm just providing an objective analysis."

"Since you're not familiar with Gu Sheng, there's no objective basis for your claims. After all, you're just repeating hearsay. As the old saying goes, time reveals all. Gu Sheng has only been in Yun City for a short time, how do you know he's a good person? What if he's just pretending? What if he quietly wipes out your Zhu family in the future? Then you'll regret it."

"You're talking nonsense! He couldn't possibly..." Zhu Jinming wanted to say that he couldn't possibly have killed our Zhu family, but he suddenly shut his mouth again.

He was so angry with this woman that he almost revealed an important secret.

Lu Sijian asked with curiosity, "You two really know each other? I saw you call someone 'brother' at Lanting before, could it be Gu Sheng?"

Zhu Jinming's brow twitched; he still vividly remembered what happened at the Lanting Club that day.

Sure enough, she was eavesdropping. I caught her red-handed, but she still lied through her teeth and brazenly dragged me to check the surveillance footage.

Not only that, he also asked the onlookers to help witness the event, and among them was Mr. Li, the head of the Li family in the capital.

That was the first time he felt so aggrieved even when he was in the right; thinking about it later made him so angry he felt like vomiting blood.

Zhu Jinming forced out a voice through his teeth: "No, you've mistaken me for someone else."

He paused, then seized on the loophole in her statement, "You admit you eavesdropped that day?"

Lu Sijian said calmly, "I didn't deny it. Wasn't this to make you check the surveillance footage so I could embarrass you? But you refused to check the footage, preferring to apologize rather than go. What could I do?"

Zhu Jinming: "..."

This woman is so infuriating! He's so angry he could die!

Lu Sijian suddenly looked at the crowd: "Hey, are you saying that if you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear? It's just checking the surveillance footage, Young Master Zhu shouldn't be afraid or feel guilty, right?"

Everyone took a few steps back in unison: "..."

We didn't say that, so don't talk nonsense!

Can't you see Zhu Jinming is about to go crazy with anger? Who would dare to provoke him at this time?

However, everyone still secretly glanced at Zhu Jinming several times.

No one present was stupid. With a little thought, they would know that Zhu Jinming's apology was definitely an attempt to cover something up. So what exactly was wrong with the surveillance footage?

Lu Lingbo forced himself to change the subject, "Well, A-Jian doesn't lie, Ms. Lan, you should be careful."

Lan Miao had the most contact with him, so if he said it like that, it must be true.

She was utterly shocked. She had thought Gu Sheng's reaction was just a warning, but she never expected the other party to be so ruthless.

Is a winery owner really that powerful? He can even get involved in Yuncheng University.

She lost interest in causing trouble and now just wanted to quickly discuss a solution with her cousin.

Lu Sijian turned to look at Zhu Jinming.

Zhu Jinming immediately sensed something was wrong and turned to leave. He wouldn't get an apology this time!

As he walked, he glanced at the crowd and said, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and disperse."

Why do these people have to get involved? Aren't they annoying?

Everyone: "..."

Why are you allowed to join in the fun, but we're not? What kind of logic is that?

They looked at Lu Sijian with surprise. This woman was different from the rumors; her words were truly sharp.

The key is that she speaks in a gentle and soft manner, which is more effective than shouting at the top of her lungs.

Why do I feel this inexplicable admiration?

-

Lu Lingbo breathed a sigh of relief. "Ah Jian, are you alright?"

He was on the verge of a nervous breakdown on the way here, but thankfully it was just a minor incident.

Lu Sijian looked at him strangely, "Why are you here?"

Lu Lingbai was completely confused: "Why can't I come?"

He remembered that when he was a child, he often visited the He family's home with Zhu Jinming and a relative of the He family.

However, Zhu Jinming offended his sister and was sent abroad by the Zhu family. He also suffered a serious drop in grades because he was always playing around, and his father ordered him not to go out and to stay home for tutoring. Gradually, he stopped coming to the He family.

My younger sister also struggled with her studies because she skipped a grade, and spent most of her time at home getting tutoring.

Later, whenever the He family had any events, the eldest brother would bring his younger brother to attend.

Although he hadn't been here for many years, he still remembered the layout of the He family's house, and the lawn and rockery in the courtyard felt familiar.

Lu Sijian pressed her temples, as if some memories were about to surface. "It's nothing."

[Forget it, who cares if he comes or not, as long as he doesn't hold us back.]

Wait a minute, he loves dogs so much, maybe he's really here to hold me back!

Lu Lingbo was taken aback. A dog? What kind of dog?

The Lu family has never kept cats or dogs, and there are hardly any stray cats or dogs in the villa area. It is said that Lu Ting thought the cats and dogs were too dirty, and together with the owners' committee, he complained to the property management. After that, they were never seen again.

He does like dogs, but because of his father, he never even considered getting one.

Speaking of which, Mu Liangyue is just like me. She is so kind-hearted and loves animals, but because of the turmoil in her family, she could not provide a stable place to live and had to give up the idea of ​​keeping a dog.

Lu Lingbai felt a pang of anxiety when he thought of Mu Liangyue, who was still lying in the hospital bed.

I wonder if she'll wake up tonight, or if she'll still be haunted by nightmares.

Lu Lingbai was momentarily stunned. He looked up and saw Lu Sijian walking away, so he hurriedly chased after her.

"Jane, where are we going?"

"Eat up, aren't you hungry?" Lu Sijian asked curiously.

She was so used to being taken care of by Wang Ma that she ate three meals a day at regular times and never felt hungry.

It's better to be well-fed before causing trouble.

With this in mind, Lu Sijian sat back down at the same table as before.

When Huang Yilin saw her return, his face turned green. Why was she like a persistent ghost?

He only sat back down after seeing Mr. He and his wife toasting at each table. Before he could even settle in, Lu Sijian returned.

If he wasn't deliberately trying to curry favor with Mr. He, he'd twist his head off and use it as a football!

Everyone at the table shared his hatred and glared at Lu Sijian with hostility.

What's going on? This woman offended Madam He, yet she dares to sit here so brazenly. Madam He will be angry when she sees her later, won't she?

Lu Sijian didn't even look at anyone else, and started eating as soon as she sat down. It was Lu Lingbo who noticed the awkward atmosphere and pulled her aside.

"What's wrong?" Lu Sijian asked, looking up as she ate.

"Perhaps you should move aside."

Huang Yilin's first reaction was, "Did I actually blurt out my true feelings?" His second reaction was, "Oh, so it wasn't me who said it."

The speaker was a middle-aged man across from me. He glanced at his watch and said with an air of nonchalance, "Could you please go to the restroom now and come back in 10 minutes?"

Lu Sijian: "No, that won't work."

The middle-aged man seemed surprised by her refusal and frowned. "We have important business to attend to. You're just a young woman who doesn't drink. Besides, this is what everyone at the table thinks."

Upon hearing this, Huang Yilin subconsciously lowered his gaze.

While he may have had this thought, it's not really appropriate to drive him away so directly.
