Chapter 138: Chapter 138: I Spoil You Like a Daughter
Although a lack of intimacy wasn’t a significant issue, as Doctor Tian had said, health always came first.
“Uh-huh, I know.” Song Sinian’s head rubbed against Lu Zhaozhao’s shoulder again, and then it seemed like he suddenly remembered something, “The auction for the Jade Vein starts next week, are you going to attend?”
Lu Zhaozhao’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and she quickly nodded her head repeatedly, “Yes, yes, yes!”
This was the day she had been waiting for!
She wanted to witness the Lu Group bidding and taking back those highly sought-after Jade Veins!
By then, they would surely feel that matters with the Song Family were settled, and they would mercilessly expel her from the Lu Family, which was when the real drama would begin!
Song Sinian clearly noticed the change in Lu Zhaozhao’s emotions. He sat up straight, studying her small face for a long time, making sure she wasn’t unhappy, which slightly relieved his heart.
“The Lu family might bring Xia Wenjin to the auction to make an appearance,” he said casually, but his eyes never left Lu Zhaozhao.
His overly obvious gaze, however, made it quite difficult to ignore.
Lu Zhaozhao cocked her little head, looked at Song Sinian, and suddenly squinted her eyes, smiling lightly, “Mr. Song, are you worried that I might be upset?”
Song Sinian nodded his head extra honestly, “Yes, I’m worried.”
What the Lu Family wanted to do was irrelevant to him, but if their actions hurt Lu Zhaozhao, it would be absolutely unacceptable.
“Mr. Song, don’t worry. As long as you are here, the Lu Family means nothing to me.” She stretched out her small hand and grabbed Song Sinian’s.
“They never treated me as their biological daughter, I’ve known this for a while, so no matter how much they pamper Xia Wenjin, it doesn’t matter to me.”
Thinking back, she even chided herself for wondering if she had done something wrong, which now seemed ridiculous.
Song Sinian noticed that Lu Zhaozhao’s eyelids seemed a bit unhappy, and he immediately clasped her hand back, “I will pamper you like a daughter.”
Moreover, definitely better than how Mr. and Mrs. Lu treated Xia Wenjin.
His tone and look were overly solemn, making Lu Zhaozhao burst into laughter.
How could someone make such a promise to his wife?
But considering this person was Song Sinian, it somehow didn’t seem so strange.
He must have sensed that she was upset, right?
So he said these words to comfort her?
Their Mr. Song was indeed getting better at comforting people.
“Alright, alright, I’ll let you pamper me.” Lu Zhaozhao extended her small hand and wrapped it around Song Sinian’s waist, snuggling into his embrace.
She took a deep breath, her nose filled with the faint, refreshing scent of Song Sinian.
Being wrapped in his warm embrace gave her a sense of security she had never felt in her previous life.
Her small face pressed against Song Sinian’s chest, she murmured softly, “Thank you, Mr. Song.”
Listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat, Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes involuntarily curved.
Song Sinian raised his hand and gently stroked her small head, “Since we’ve decided to go to the auction, then… should we buy a few more dresses?”
He remembered how every time Lu Zhaozhao attended a dinner or similar events, she always bought beautiful dresses.
This time should be no exception, right?
Lu Zhaozhao was about to refuse, but then she met Song Sinian’s expectant black eyes.
“Maybe not…” Her words at the tip of her tongue suddenly turned, “Maybe not… let’s figure out how many to buy!”
Well, she was just that unprincipled!
Though the welcome party at the Song Family had concluded, the frenzy of trending searches it ignited hadn’t ceased at all.
Among the unluckiest apart from the instigator Song Keren was Xia Wenjin, who got dragged into the mess as a “buy one, get one free” deal.

…
Watching the original swarm of netizens who criticized Song Keren, as soon as they saw Xia Wenjin standing with her at the welcome party, they immediately redirected their spears and pulled her in too.
As long as it related to Song Keren, she would get cyberbullied as well.
Xia Wenjin felt like a monkey on Emei Mountain!
Always the target of trampling!
Previously, it was Lu Zhaozhao, now it was Song Keren!
“Are these netizens sick?! I just went to a welcome party, how can they dump this on my head?!” Xia Wenjin clenched her teeth in anger, wishing she could battle it out with these netizens online for three hundred rounds.
But alas, she was alone and powerless, utterly unable to outmatch them.
The more she fought back, the more people came to spray her.
She furiously threw her phone aside, stomping her feet in anger.
Seeing this, Cao Mei brought over a glass of juice to Xia Wenjin, “Jin, don’t look at your phone these next few days. You don’t need to listen to those online rumors.”
Previously, when Xiao Jinglan came, she had declared with confidence, planning to establish a best friend persona for both Song Keren and Xia Wenjin, hoping to achieve an effect greater than the sum of 1+1.
She even expected Xiao Jinglan to have some great moves to deal with Lu Zhaozhao.
But she didn’t anticipate that instead of a great move, it had brought a swarm of trouble to Xia Wenjin.
Now, all over the outside were venomous criticisms of Xia Wenjin.
More severe than before.
Had she known it would turn out like this, she would have never agreed to let Xia Wenjin attend that welcome party.
Now it was too late, even denying the best friend relationship with Song Keren couldn’t salvage her reputation.
Cao Mei thought to herself, sympathetically stroking Xia Wenjin’s head, “Don’t worry, Jin, your mother will definitely make up for the injustice you’ve suffered.”
…
Xia Wenjin remained silent.
She was already very troubled, feeling discontent every day since she had come to the Lu Family.
That Lu Zhaozhao, obviously no longer the Lu family’s darling, still kept using the Lu Family’s name!
Yet she, the true darling, was being constantly bullied!
It seemed Cao Mei could sense her thoughts and quickly tried to comfort her, “Jin, once the auction of the Jade Vein is over, your father and I will announce your identity, and then we will also disown Lu Zhaozhao from our family.”
Xia Wenjin felt like she had heard this promise so often that her ears could develop calluses.
She pursed her lips and muttered, “When will that be?”
Cao Mei smiled gently, “The auction is next week. How about you get a few dresses made, and accompany your father to the auction?”
Upon hearing this, Xia Wenjin’s eyes sparkled with a change.
“Next week?!”
So, Lu Zhaozhao’s good days are coming to an end?!
Cao Mei nodded, “Yes, after we reveal your identity, you can invite your classmates and friends to a party just for you. I will book the venue at SJJ Hotel. How does coming back to the Lu Family as the young lady in style sound?”
What do you think?
