After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 50: Chapter 50 Do you think you are worthy?!

She seemed to have an exceedingly close male companion by her side.

Was that man her boyfriend?

Xia Wenyan’s eyebrows raised slightly as he realized he didn’t really understand Lu Zhaozhao.

He only knew that she and Xia Wenjin had been swapped at birth, that she was the daughter of the Lu family, but as for anything else, he had learned it through Xia Wenjin.

The Xia family’s company had always been overseas; it was only recently that they had expanded into the domestic market.

Business was mainly handled by his eldest brother, so the rest of them were free to pursue their interests.

When they were abroad, they had never paid attention to the business affairs, and even less so after coming to the domestic market.

Thus, he was very ignorant about the domestic business circles, let alone the Lu Family…

Xia Wenjin caught Xia Wenyan’s gaze and also happened to see Lu Zhaozhao.

Especially when she saw Song Si’s gaze persistently fixed on her, Xia Wenjin’s jealousy almost drove her insane.

Her venomous stare fixed on Lu Zhaozhao, and suddenly, as if remembering something, she reached out and tugged at Xia Wenyan, “Fourth brother… Did you see the man beside Lu Zhaozhao? He is actually my fiancé.”

She said this with her head downturned, looking extremely aggrieved as if she had been bullied.

Xia Wenyan stood there, stunned, for a long time before he could snap out of it.

Fiancé?

Lu Zhaozhao’s fiancé was Xia Wenjin’s?

Why did he feel like his brain couldn’t keep up?

Xia Wenjin, seeing Xia Wenyan’s dazed expression, felt a wave of disgust and reluctantly explained, “I heard from Mrs. Lu that the marriage arrangement was between the Song Family and the Lu Family. Lu Zhaozhao found out at some point that she wasn’t the daughter of the Lu Family, and fearing being thrown out by Mrs. Lu, she clung to Song Si and they went and got their marriage certificate…”

“Marriage certificate? Lu Zhaozhao got married?” Xia Wenyan was utterly shocked.

The daughter of the Xia family had gotten married without a fuss?

Xia Wenjin, hearing Xia Wenyan seize on the wrong point, raised her hand to shake him, “Fourth brother, the person she married is my fiancé, do you understand that? They only have a marriage certificate, there’s no love involved. Plus, Lu Zhaozhao married him just to disgrace me…”

“…”

The more Xia Wenyan heard, the worse he felt. It was outrageous enough that Lu Zhaozhao had married quietly, but now she was doing it out of spite towards Xia Wenjin?

Seeing that Xia Wenyan’s expression grew increasingly ugly, Xia Wenjin seized the opportunity to stoke the fire, “Fourth brother, Lu Zhaozhao is very hostile towards me now, she won’t listen to me. Maybe… you could try persuading her, please?”

Xia Wenyan hesitated for a moment but then nodded, “Alright, I’ll go find her now.”

Getting married on a whim, just to spite someone? Really?

That guy looked respectable enough, but whether his family background was solid, that hadn’t been investigated—a definite no-go!

She might not consider acknowledging him as her brother, but biologically speaking, they were indeed siblings.

Besides, his parents and the other three brothers all placed great importance on Lu Zhaozhao, so it would be best if he stopped her before she made any serious mistakes.

Thinking this way, Xia Wenyan strode off towards Lu Zhaozhao.

As for Xia Wenjin, she naturally slipped away quietly.

She still needed to find Cao Mei and Lu Dagui as soon as possible to discuss the engagement—she didn’t have time to waste here with Xia Wenyan.

“Lu Zhaozhao!”

Suddenly, a voice called her name from behind.

Lu Zhaozhao instinctively turned around, just in time to see Xia Wenyan approaching from not far away.

Her eyebrows involuntarily raised, and she couldn’t help but feel a surge of panic.

Had he found out about her anonymous report regarding the place they were staying for the variety show competition just yesterday?

Lu Zhaozhao, feeling somewhat guilty, took a step back but instinctively positioned herself in front of Song Sinian.

She had heard that these drug addicts had no humanity.

If he suddenly went mad, she had to prevent Song Sinian from getting hurt.

Song Sinian saw her subtle movements, but he didn’t understand why she was doing it.

Was she protecting him?@@novelbin@@

Because of the man in front of them?

Song Sinian thought for a moment and then his gaze landed on Xia Wenyan.

He seemed older than Lu Zhaozhao and looked to be in good health. Was he the man she knew before who was close to death?

Lu Zhaozhao looked at Xia Wenyan with a hint of wariness but still put on a composed face and asked, “Do you need something from me?”

Xia Wenyan’s brows furrowed slightly, then he glanced at Song Sinian and back at Lu Zhaozhao, lowering his voice to ask, “Can I talk to you alone?”

His expression and behavior seemed very normal, and there was no hint of anger in his speech.

Could she have been mistaken?

Lu Zhaozhao hesitated for a moment, but then nodded. She turned to Song Sinian and said, “Mr. Song, please go wait for me in the car, I’ll come find you after I’ve finished talking to him.”

Song Sinian gave Lu Zhaozhao a deep look, nodded slightly, and then left.

For a while, it was just Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenyan.

She slightly lifted her eyes and said indifferently, “Can we talk now?”

Xia Wenyan coughed softly, “I heard… that your engagement to the man just now was arranged by the Lu Family?”

Hearing Xia Wenyan mention the “engagement,” Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

This was probably Xia Wenjin’s doing, wasn’t it?

Although her engagement to Song Sinian was a union between the Song and Lu Families, it was entirely the Lu Family treating her as a commodity to be sold to the Song Family.

Xia Wenjin was probably jealous after seeing how handsome and gentle Song Sinian was, right?

She sighed lightly, saw Xia Wenyan hesitating to speak, and coldly said, “You mean to say that I’ve stolen Xia Wenjin’s engagement?”

Xia Wenyan shook his head, “No, no, no, I just think you should consider more carefully before getting married? After all, you’re still young, and that man obviously looks older than you. You don’t need to agree so readily just because you’re upset with Wen Jin.”

“…”

Listening to Xia Wenyan’s explanation, Lu Zhaozhao’s gaze towards him turned colder.

She scoffed, “So that’s what you think of me? Should I thank you for not deeming me as someone who’s marrying him just for the Song Family’s wealth and status?”

Although Xia Wenyan wasn’t usually adept at reading people’s expressions, he could still tell from Lu Zhaozhao’s obvious retort.

“Lu Zhaozhao, I’m doing this for your own good. If you weren’t my sister, I wouldn’t even bother! You’d better listen and divorce that man immediately!” Xia Wenyan said irritably, frowning.

According to domestic standards, daughters of the Xia Family were from esteemed and wealthy backgrounds; how could she marry someone so casually?

A cold light flashed in Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes, “For my own good, you think you can disregard my wishes and tell me to divorce as you please? How can you even call yourself someone’s brother? Who gave you the courage? Do you think you’re worthy?!”
