After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Before You Start, Check If You Have the Capability

“These are our adult concerns, you’re still young, so don’t worry about it unnecessarily.”

Her tone sounded level, seemingly without much emotional fluctuation.

Xia Wenjin couldn’t quite grasp Wen Qingyu’s thoughts, so she didn’t continue the conversation.

Her eyes darted around, and then she spoke with a face full of grievance, “Then… if Lu Zhaozhao comes to stay at our house, do I need to stay at school for a few days? I’m afraid she would feel uncomfortable seeing me…”

Xia Wenjue’s eyes nearly rolled to the heavens.

Stay at school for a few days? She simply wanted to continue living with the Lu Family, still playing the victim here.

Xia Wenjue looked at Xia Wenjin with a smirk that was not quite a smile and said, “Zhaozhao is already married, she won’t stay at the house, so rest assured and stay home.”

He didn’t want to see Xia Wenjin either, but seeing her belittle Lu Zhaozhao while whitewashing herself made him feel annoyed, and he wanted to aggravate her.

“…”

Xia Wenjin did not expect Xia Wenjue to say that, clearly taken aback.

Her hands clenched tightly, and a distinct flash of irritation crossed her brows.

Although she had only stayed with the Lu Family for a few days, she had already grown fond of the feeling of being a spendthrift rich girl.

If she continued to live with the Xia Family, they would certainly ask her where the money she spent came from; worse, she might have to contribute money to the family.

Xia Wenjue might earn quite a bit, but with Xia Wenmo being a bottomless pit, she couldn’t take the risk…

Should she simply leave the Xia Family?

While Xia Wenjin was still hesitating, Xia Wenjue suddenly spoke up, “If you’re still worried about the Lu Family troubling you, I can personally go to the Lu Family and ask Mr. and Mrs. Lu not to bother you anymore.”

“No way!” Xia Wenjin stood up from the sofa in a flash. “Why can Lu Zhaozhao come to the Xia Family to find you, but I can’t go to the Lu Family?”

Xia Wenjue looked at Xia Wenjin coldly and said indifferently, “It was you who just said the Lu Family won’t let you go home, and you have been saying you want to come back. Did I misunderstand something?”

“…”

Xia Wenjin’s brows instantly knotted, she wouldn’t have given them face just now if it weren’t for her concern that Xia Wenjue might be somewhat capable and affect the Lu Family’s affairs.

“I, I just wanted to see my biological parents, wuwuwu…” Xia Wenjin suddenly started crying pitifully again, trying to gain sympathy from Mr. and Mrs. Xia.@@novelbin@@

But to her surprise, Wen Qingyu and Xia Nie just watched her cry quietly, with no intention of comforting her.

After a few dry sobs, she stopped when she saw the indifferent Wen Qingyu and Xia Nie, and then sniffled before asking, “Dad, Mom, actually, when I went to the Lu Family, it was because I wanted you to have a better life…”

As she spoke, she picked up the gifts she had brought, “These are all from Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu, they are really kind. They knew our family isn’t wealthy, so they sent quite a few gifts with me.”

Xia Nie glanced at the gifts on the table, most of which he had seen in TV ads, indeed costing a fair amount of money.

He withdrew his gaze towards Xia Wenjin and slowly said, “Wenjin, you’re not young anymore, you can be responsible for your own decisions. From now on, it’s up to you to decide what to do with your life.”

Since she had already chosen the Lu Family, she no longer had much to do with their Xia Family.

In fact, when Xia Wenjin suddenly came back, he harbored some hope, thinking that although she verbally deprecated their poverty, she might have some feelings for them.

But from her behavior just now, it was clear that she had no feelings for them at all.

Why should they force themselves?

“Really? Thank you, Dad!” Xia Wenjin completely failed to pick up on Xia Nie’s insinuations and was overjoyed at the thought of being able to return to the Lu Family.

Before noon, Xia Wenjin had left the Xia Family.

She was in such high spirits that she went to the mall, and just after swiping her card for a new handbag, she caught sight of Lu Zhaozhao from afar.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Xia Wenjin charged out to block her path, “Long time no see, Lu Zhaozhao!”

“…”

Lu Zhaozhao rolled her eyes at Xia Wenjin, feeling somewhat speechless.

Different from their first school encounter, she was dressed in a limited edition outfit, and the handbag she carried looked like it was worth upwards of 300,000.

It wasn’t that Lu Zhaozhao had meant to notice, but Xia Wenjin had deliberately raised her arm, almost as if she wanted to smash the bag into her face.

Lu Zhaozhao pursed her lips, feeling annoyed, “Xia Wenjin, if you don’t have anything important, don’t block the way; I’m in a hurry.”

She had a lunch appointment with the Xia Family members for the weekend, so she had been busy picking out gifts for her four brothers that she hadn’t met.

Since she didn’t know her brothers well, she had no idea what kind of gifts would be appropriate, which inadvertently led to a lot of time being wasted.

Now that it was almost noon, she started to feel the urgency.

With a snort, Xia Wenjin raised her hand to poke Lu Zhaozhao’s shoulder, but her quick reflexes allowed her to catch and hold Xia Wenjin’s hand firmly.

She applied force swiftly, causing Xia Wenjin to shriek in pain, “Ouch! It hurts!”

Lu Zhaozhao retorted coldly, “I’m warning you, don’t mess with me if you’ve got no business! Just because the Lu Family is polite to you, doesn’t mean I have to be.”

Xia Wenjin, with her fingers twisted by Lu Zhaozhao, bit her teeth in anger, “Lu Zhaozhao, don’t be so arrogant. Just wait until I tell my mom; do you think you can still play the pampered daughter of the Lu Family?”

Lu Zhaozhao flung her hand away, “If you think you can, go ahead and try, see if they listen to you.”

“You!” Xia Wenjin, having suffered a setback, glared at Lu Zhaozhao, wanting to retaliate.

But she was halted by Lu Zhaozhao’s stern gaze, standing still.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced at her, scoffing lightly, “Xia Wenjin, before you think about getting physical, make sure you’re actually capable.”

As she said this, she deliberately moved closer to Xia Wenjin and enunciated each word, “Of course, if you’re asking for a slap, I can deliver one for free.”

Xia Wenjin visibly flinched, took a step back subconsciously, and then stiffly retorted, “What are you being so arrogant about? Let me tell you…”

“Shut up!” Before Xia Wenjin could finish, Lu Zhaozhao grabbed her face.

Her piercing gaze bore into Xia Wenjin as she stated icily, “Let me tell you, I don’t give a damn about being the Lu daughter. If you want it, it’s yours, but don’t bother me!”

In the last life, although one was the true daughter of the Lu Family and the other an impostor, the ridiculous thing was that there was little overlap between the two.

And Xia Wenjin, using the name of the true Lu daughter, always walked a flowery path.

The last news Lu Zhaozhao had heard about Xia Wenjin was that she had married as a leading star, becoming the wife of the new president of the international conglomerate XJ Group.

Looking Xia Wenjin up and down, Lu Zhaozhao genuinely could not see any such incredible potential in her…
