Spring Branches

Lu Tangtang took a flight to Jinzhou at 5pm the next day.

She felt very strange.

I felt very nervous and uncomfortable.

Those in the lab, especially Zhang Man, knew that she was going to attend the Oscars. She would definitely meet a lot of celebrities and ask them for autographs.

Logically, she should have sent messages to inquire about the situation in the past two days, but the strange thing is that no one asked about the situation, and no one even replied to her messages.

As for Bobby Au-yeung, there has been no contact since the last phone call ended in a bad mood.

Lu Tangtang wanted to send a message to Bobby Au-yeung, but was afraid that he would not reply, which would make their interactions awkward in the future, so she did not tell him her schedule.

After getting off the plane, Lu Tangtang took a taxi to school.

The weather in Jinzhou is not very good today. It is gloomy, covered with dark clouds, and it looks like it is about to rain.

Suddenly, the phone vibrated twice.

Lu Tangtang lowered her eyes and looked.

It was a text message from Lu Chixie.

——Are we there yet?

——Call me back when you get there.

After staring at it for a while, Lu Tangtang sighed and turned off the phone.

He lowered his eyes to look at his palm wrapped in white gauze with a serious expression.

When she woke up in the morning, she didn't see Lu Chixie, and her clothes were intact. There was breakfast on the table, and a note was left.

Lu Tangtang still remembers what happened last night when he was drunk.

Especially the voice calling "brother" over and over again, filling my ears and my cheeks gradually turned red.

"Girl, here we are."

The driver's voice broke Lu Tangtang's reverie.

I paid the fare and got off the bus with my suitcase.

Just as she got off the car, a strong force pushed her from behind. She felt dizzy and was stepped on by someone.

Lu Tangtang was lying face down on the ground, having difficulty breathing. His feet and hands were being stepped on by four girls, and many people gathered around him.

They just stood by and watched, no one was willing to help.

"Well you bitch! You are the big devil's sister! Do you know what you have done to him?"

"Aren't you studying at Shenda University? Why are you coming to our school? Get out!"

"If you, my adopted daughter, weren't here, how could Sisi get sick? You are the jinx! There is a curse on you!"

"How dare you, a drug addict, come to our school to study for a doctorate?"

"Do you have any other purpose for coming to our school? Tell me!"

"..."

The sounds in my ears are very chaotic, with all kinds of voices buzzing non-stop.

She had no idea what they were talking about and was completely confused.

I wanted to explain, but I couldn't find the words.

The two girls violently lifted Lu Tangtang up, and one of them injected something into Lu Tangtang's neck. A cool feeling made her legs feel weak.

My head was dizzy, my face was aching, and it was difficult for me to blink my eyes.

Through the gap, she could clearly see the appearance of the leading girl.

A pair of fox eyes that are a bit small, a big nose, a mouth dyed Barbie pink, long straight black hair. She is wearing a gray sweater and tight jeans.

I vaguely feel that she looks like someone...

But I can't remember.

The girl said, "Lu Tangtang, you are a cheap person. Don't touch the wrong people. Go back to jail!"

As she spoke, the girl used lipstick to write the words "drug addict" on Lu Tangtang's face, and also drew a turtle, causing everyone present to laugh.

More and more people are watching.

Even the ones from the lab came.

They stood by and watched indifferently without saying or doing anything.

Zhang Man looked at Lu Tangtang with a distressed look on her face, her eyes misty. She was about to go forward, but Zhang Nan grabbed her wrist.

She whispered, "Don't you know who these people are? What's more, it was Lu Tangtang who lied to us first!"

"But...but this didn't cause any substantial harm to us, right, cousin?"

Zhang Nan sighed, let go of Zhang Man, turned her head to the side, and said coldly: "You helped Lu Tangtang today, and our sisterhood ends here."

Zhang Man: “…”

Lu Tangtang looked at Zhang Man with tears in her eyes and shook her head firmly.

Signaled her not to be impulsive.

Lu Tangtang remembered this humiliation today and would repay it tenfold or a hundredfold someday.

And those friends who usually played and laughed with her, she remembered clearly their cold indifference today.

The leading girl walked up slowly, patted Lu Tangtang on the face, and said slowly: "There are rumors all over the Internet. I guess the police will come to your door soon. You will be sentenced to death for escaping."

Lu Tangtang sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes, "The person who can let me out must be a powerful person. He can let me go in and out of that place freely. Do you think it is easy to take your life?"

The girl laughed, "Ridiculous!"

He circled around Lu Tangtang and asked, "Do you know who I am?"

Lu Tangtang remained silent and said nothing.

After a while, the girl continued, "The popular idol An Zaolin, the girlfriend of the big devil Lu Chixie, is my biological sister. I have the final say in this school! Whoever I tell to get out must get out!"

After hearing this, Lu Tangtang finally remembered who this girl looked like.

It turned out that she was just an empty vase in the entertainment industry, the younger sister of Lu Chi’s girlfriend on vacation. She thought she was so powerful that she could show off like that.

"Really?" Lu Tangtang had a sarcastic smile on his lips.

The girl felt humiliated and was about to slap Lu Tangtang on the face when someone grabbed her wrist from behind and slammed her away.

Ouyang Zhenhua's strength was amazing. When the girl fell to the ground, several bystanders behind her who didn't have time to hide were also affected and sat on the ground in a mess.

Ouyang Zhenhua held Lu Tangtang in his arms, holding her tightly, patting her back gently with the back of his hand again and again, his eyes full of coldness.

"Bobby Au-yeung!!!" the girl screamed angrily.

The day before yesterday at noon, a girl confessed her love to the school hunk Ouyang Zhenhua in front of hundreds of people, but he didn't even look at her, and even threw the roses the girl gave her into the trash can and left in style.

This matter has been hotly discussed in the forum.

Two howling heads.

The highest temperature was reached yesterday afternoon.

It is said that Bobby Au-yeung is abstinent and has no interest in women.

The second reason is that the girl was too ugly and he didn’t like him, so he rejected him.

Ouyang Zhenhua handed Lu Tangtang to Zhang Man and walked towards the girl with great momentum.

He walked slowly and steadily.

There was a strong murderous look in his eyes.

"Quiet."

This is a girl's name.

They say a name reflects its character, but that is not always true.

Ouyang Zhenhua pinched An Jing's neck with great force. Her face turned red instantly and her eyes were full of bloodshot.

"I like her."

"..."

After hearing this, the crowd, which had been quiet for a few seconds, suddenly became noisy and the noise of discussion made An Jing want to hit his head against a wall and die.

When Lu Tangtang woke up, she was in the rental house.

Under the dim light, Lu Tangtang's face looked extremely pale!

I looked around. It was an empty room. Mianmian was lying on the pillow with a glass of milk on the bedside table and an IV in her hand.

Her head ached, so she closed her eyes again and frowned slightly.

I tried hard to recall what happened in the afternoon.

She was beaten up by a group of girls, and Ouyang Zhenhua showed up. There were many people present, and he said he liked her. Lu Tangtang couldn't remember what happened afterwards, and seemed to have fainted.

Wait, when she realized what Bobby Au-yeung said, every hair on Lu Tangtang's body started to scream with embarrassment.

At this moment, someone knocked on the bedroom door from outside, and then Bobby Au-yeung slowly walked in.

Subconsciously, Lu Tangtang pulled up the quilt to cover her entire face.

The quilt was shaking slightly. Logically, Bobby Au-yeung should have been amused, but he wasn't.

He pulled out the needle from the back of Lu Tangtang's hand with an indifferent look on his face.

Because the force was quite strong, Lu Tangtang groaned in pain.

"Hi~"

"When you wake up, drink the milk." Ouyang Zhenhua said coldly, throwing the phone at Lu Tangtang, his eyes cold and piercing: "The big star called you."

superstar.

Hearing these three words, Lu Tangtang felt particularly harsh. At the same time, she also remembered her indifference when Ouyang Zhenhua asked her about her relationship with Lu Chixie last time, and his attitude when he hung up the phone when he was angry.

Lu Tangtang sat up, threw the phone aside, looked at Ouyang Zhenhua seriously and said, "Thank you for helping me."

"It's just a piece of cake." Ouyang Zhenhua brought the milk to Lu Tangtang and said, "Drink the milk."

Lu Tangtang took it and drank it all in one gulp.

A little milk accidentally left at the corner of the lips.

Bobby Au-yeung wiped it off with his thumb expressionlessly.

The moment their skin touched, both of their hearts skipped a beat.

When our eyes met, our hearts pounded even more violently than before.

Ouyang Zhenhua coughed, sat on the bed, and became serious, "Those people are fans of Lu Chixie, right?"

Lu Tangtang nodded and shook her head, "Probably not."

"Why are you so sure?"

Lu Tangtang said: "I believe him."

Lu Tangtang felt that this matter had nothing to do with Lu Chixie, and it was all done by An Zaolin and her sister. She still remembered the words that An Zaolin threatened her with at the award ceremony. But it didn't make sense. When An Zaolin attacked her, someone took a video, which must have been uploaded to the Internet. If her sister revealed her identity, wouldn't this slap An Zaolin in the face and cause trouble?

Bobby Au-yeung said "Oh" faintly.

Oh.

This surprised Lu Tangtang.

If she had said that before, Bobby Au-yeung would have lost his temper and walked away angrily for no reason, but today...

I haven't seen you for three days. Have you become more stable?

Lu Tangtang said: "Lu Chixie and I are indeed siblings. I was adopted by the Lu family. I didn't tell anyone because I was afraid that people would look at me with prejudice. Another reason is that the Lu family would not allow it."

Ouyang Zhenhua nodded, "I understand, I'll go make dinner."

As soon as Bobby Au-yeung left, his cell phone rang.

It's Zhang Man calling.

She said: [Tangtang, this is so scary!!! There are nine fingers where those bullies hit you yesterday!!! Forum people analyzed the nails and found that the fingers were quiet!!! She also dropped out of school! An Zaolin was also scolded by netizens!]

Lu Tangtang: [How could this happen? Do you know who did this?]

Zhang Man said: "I don't know. Anyway, those people who played a prank on you all suffered a miserable end. When I called you, the post was still there, but now it's gone."

Zhang Man said: "How are you? You fainted at that time. When Ouyang Zhenhua carried you back, the last look he gave An Jing was terrifying. I still remember it vividly."

Lu Tangtang said: [I'm much better now, thank you for your concern, are you okay over there?]

After a few pleasantries, he hung up the phone.

I feel heavy in my heart.

Ten fingers connected to the heart.

Who did this?

Zhang Man said that the last look Ouyang Zhenhua gave An Jing was terrifying. Could he have done that?

But then I thought about it.

Although Bobby Au-yeung looks scary and fierce, he is actually kind-hearted, polite and caring.

Lu Tangtang felt that it shouldn't be him.

So who could it be?

Suddenly, a rapid ringing of a bell frightened Lu Tangtang so much that she trembled all over.

Although there was no note on the unfamiliar number, Lu Tangtang could recite it by heart.

Lu Tangtang opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, the deep voice from the other end made her tremble again, and a current of electricity swept through her heart.

[Lu Tangtang.] Lu Chixie said solemnly: [I am very worried about you.]

Lu Tangtang was stunned for a while, then asked: [What's wrong?]

A cold laugh came from the phone, and the cold feeling made my ears feel a little cold: "What's wrong with you? Why don't you call me back when you get home? Even a text message. 】

Gradually, Lu Tangtang realized that there was no news of Lu Chixie returning.

He prepared breakfast for her early in the morning, and vomited everywhere after getting drunk, which was cleaned up by Lu Chixie.

I can't help feeling a little guilty.

[I’m sorry.] Lu Tangtang said slowly: [Brother.]

The phone was silent for several seconds, and then a cold and clear voice sounded: [Well, I heard about what happened at school.]

Lu Tangtang: [Yes.]

Lu Chixie said: [An Zaolin and I broke up.]

Lu Tangtang: [Oh.]

Lu Chixie said: [Her sister touched you, so I will touch her sister.]

So, it was Lu Chixie who cut off An Jing's nine fingers?

Lu Tangtang was silent: [……]

Lu Chixie said: [I left her one finger because I wanted you to do it yourself.]

Lu Tangtang said: […It’s a bit too serious.]

Lu Chixie sneered, "My people can only be touched by me, and this is just a minor lesson. I hope you have ambitions."

Lu Tangtang felt a lump in her throat and didn't know what to say.

Lu Chixie said: [If nothing unexpected happens, your father will call you in the next two days.]

Lu Tangtang asked: [Why did he call?]

Lu Chixie said: [I want you to go home and be Miss Lu.]

She didn't speak, and neither did the person on the other end of the line.

Recently, public opinion on the Internet has been all about scolding Lu Chixie and the Lu family.

I don't know who posted it, but Lu Tangtang's tragic life story was revealed. She was born in the toilet by her mother, and was adopted and abandoned. The Lu family was the 15th adopted child. When she was studying abroad, she was often bullied, and her adoptive mother Shen Wanyan even had someone kill Lu Tangtang.

For a time, Lu Tangtang became a victim, and all netizens sympathized with her, accusing the Lu family of being heartless. Not only did the Lu family's stock fall, but several shareholders withdrew their shares, and many of the projects they discussed failed. The Lu family's business was put to the most severe test in history.

Netizens have urged Lu Tangtang to return to Shen University and the Lu family, to be on equal footing with Lu Sisi, to treat her as their own daughter, and to become the eldest daughter of the Lu family. Otherwise, they will defend this poor person to the end.
