Chapter 39: Chapter 39 You don’t have to worry about me being jealous
Editor: Inschain
“Sister… are you still angry?”
Her cautious demeanor resembled someone utterly bullied by Qiao Yun, filled with immense grievance.
“What can I do for your forgiveness?”
“It’s all my fault. I had seen the dress Mom bought for you before, it wasn’t the one you are wearing now, so it led everyone to misunderstand that you were wearing a knock-off.”
“I didn’t know that Mom had bought you a new one afterward.”
This insinuation hinted that the Lu Family favored Qiao Yun and treated her unfairly.
It made some friends couldn’t help but feel pity for Lu Ting.
Originally, because of the knock-off incident, they felt they had lost face in front of Pei Ya, and they somewhat blamed Lu Ting in their hearts.
Qiao Yun looked at her calmly, “It wasn’t bought by Mom.”
Lu Ting said, “Don’t worry, I won’t be jealous. You are Mom’s biological daughter, it’s only right for her to treat you well.”
Friends couldn’t help but exclaim, “Lu Ting is so genuinely kind and beautiful!”
Lu Xue, seeing Lu Ting’s demeanor, said impatiently, “We have already apologized, what more do you want? How could we know that our aunt would secretly switch the dress without telling Tingting?”
She muttered under her breath, “Huh, just a vulgar girl from the countryside, completely ruining the dress. If you hadn’t come back, all these should have been Tingting’s.”
Although Qiao Yun was a distant relative, Lu Ting, who had grown up playing with her, felt much closer in comparison.
“Xue!” Lu Ting bit her lip, her face showing restraint and grievance, “What did you promise me? Didn’t we agree to make my sister forgive us? Why are you still saying such things?”
Lu Xue said reluctantly, “Well, it’s all because of her. Since she was wearing the real thing, she should have said it earlier, instead of waiting to watch us make fools of ourselves. She did it on purpose.”
“Because you played deaf,” said Qiao Yun, clearly unenthusiastic about their performance.
Lu Ting said bitterly with a smile, “Sister, can’t you really forgive me? Do I annoy you that much? I’ve already decided, once I graduate from high school, I will move out and won’t get in your way anymore.”
“Tingting!” exclaimed Lu Xue. “What are you talking about? Why should you leave? You are the most innocent one.”
She looked at Qiao Yun, her voice sarcastic, “You’re really good at pretending, oh, and I hear you want to go to Shengyang High School? You have such a nerve, you, in this lifetime, the next, and the one after that, it’s impossible.”
Upon hearing this, friends immediately found it incredibly funny, Qiao Yun really knows how to brag?
Qiao Yun raised an eyebrow, spoke lazily, “Are you also a student at Shengyang?”
“Of course,” Lu Xue lifted her head proudly.
Qiao Yun asked, “Which rank?”
Lu Xue almost subconsciously said, “Last place, although it’s…”
“What are you proud of?”
Qiao Yun interrupted her, her face full of disdain, “Last place, and you’re proud of that?”
If she were her student, she would be punished to write it 10,000 times.
Laughter involuntarily erupted from nearby.
Indeed, what are you proud of being last.
Lu Xue: “…”
Damn, it’s so infuriating!
Meanwhile, a woman entered Qiao Yun’s view.
Qiao Yun paused her gaze, then walked toward the woman.
Being ignored, Lu Ting’s expression darkened. She watched the direction Qiao Yun walked towards and with a faint smile, followed along.
Qiao Yun approached the woman, reached out, and tugged at her sleeve, “Hello.”
Seeing Qiao Yun’s action, the Lu Family parents were stunned.
Lu Jingzhi fell silent, the smile in his eyes gradually faded, and he looked at Qiao Yun with a mix of skepticism and a faint, discernible tension.
