After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 59: Chapter 59: The Fragile Lady of Their Family

“To get a bitch like Lu Zhaozhao to obey, you have to crush what she prides herself on most!”

“That makes sense, if she accidentally offends some riffraff outside and gets defiled… then the only shelter she’d be able to find would be our Lu Family…”

“Exactly, then isn’t it just whatever Mom wants her to do that she’ll have to do?”

…

The voices transmitted in the video echoed in the spacious hospital room.

The two men present, already silent, now exhibited a clear rise of malice in their eyes.

“Before, I only thought Xia Wenjin was scheming, but now, isn’t her malevolence a whole lot more?” Xia Wenmo’s lips curled coldly as he hummed.

She had just returned to the Lu Family and was already scheming against Lu Zhaozhao with her biological mother?

Xia Wenjue’s sharp gaze was fixed on the two people on the screen, and after a long moment, he spoke coldly, “For the people of the Lu Family to be so uniformly wicked, that’s really rare.”

He almost ground his back teeth as he spoke.

They hadn’t even settled scores with the Lu Family yet, and they were already harboring other intentions towards Lu Zhaozhao?

Especially this Xia Wenjin, he truly viewed her in a new light!

Xia Wenmo glanced at Xia Wenjue, “Big Brother, I remember you recently investigated the Lu Family’s situation domestically, right?”

Xia Wenjue nodded, his eyes and brows still tinged with an indescribable coldness, “The Lu Family’s main orders are for overseas projects, and they seem to be planning to bid on the Jade Vein recently.”@@novelbin@@

The coldness in Xia Wenmo’s eyes flitted, “Overseas projects, eh? Our Xia Family just happens to match.”

His implication could not have been more obvious: with the Xia Family’s capability, stealing the Lu Family’s orders wouldn’t be hard.

“The specifics, I’ve already sent a specialist to handle,” Xia Wenjue’s dark eyes deepened, “I didn’t want to be so ruthless originally, but since the Lu Family doesn’t appreciate favors, it’s time they felt what it’s like to have someone tighten the noose around their necks.”

Xia Wenmo raised his eyebrows, not forgetting to emphasize, “And that Jade Vein auction, don’t leave even a single root of hair for the Lu Family!”

“Alright, leave it to me,” Xia Wenjue said, while he started packing up the documents in front of him.

Xia Wenmo’s gaze swept over Xia Wenjue, unable to resist asking, “You aren’t planning to send her all these videos, are you?”

He was a bit worried about whether Lu Zhaozhao could withstand this blow.

Xia Wenjue understood Xia Wenmo’s meaning too, and he sighed lightly, “If we don’t let Zhaozhao know, her situation could be even more dangerous.”

…

Xia Wenmo couldn’t deny this fact; after all, the woman was the foster mother who had raised her for so many years. If she didn’t see the truth herself, she probably wouldn’t believe it.

Thinking this, his heart began to ache for Lu Zhaozhao again.

Once he recovered from the surgery, he would definitely protect his precious little sister properly!

The next day, bright and early, Lu Zhaozhao arrived at Beishan with her easel, accompanied by two bodyguards and… a whole medical team.

Stepping out of the car, Lu Zhaozhao glimpsed at the medical team behind her and couldn’t help but sigh heavily.

She had said that Song Sinian agreed too easily not to let her bring a medical kit; it turned out he was waiting here for her…

If they could save Old Master Song on the mountain later, this medical team would truly be a godsend.

What if Mr. Song changed his plans because of the butterfly effect, then would her climb to the mountaintop for a sketching trip be considered social suicide?

“Madam, the medical team will head up the mountain first, we can take our time going up, the master said safety first.” Qian Shiyi, holding the equipment Lu Zhaozhao used for sketching, briefly explained while standing nearby.

Lu Zhaozhao nodded, pressed down the visor on her forehead, and then joined Qian Shiyi and the others in their ascent.

For the sake of convenience, she had specially changed into casual wear.

However, she had hardly worn this style of clothing before, so the casual shirt she was wearing was secretly taken from Song Sinian’s wardrobe.

His clothes were mostly in cool tones, which made them extra easy to match.

Since Beishan wasn’t very high, they quickly made it to mid-mountain.

Qian Shiyi looked at Lu Zhaozhao with a bit of concern and asked quietly, “Madam, there’s a resting platform up ahead with a nice environment, do you want to rest for a bit?”

When he arrived, Qian Hong and Zhao Xi almost grabbed his ears and repeatedly instructed him to take good care of Lu Zhaozhao.

They insisted that he must not let her get tired or injured.

So, all along the way, Qian Shiyi was highly vigilant and kept a close watch on Lu Zhaozhao.

To his surprise, Lu Zhaozhao was cheerful the whole way, and even followed closely behind the medical team.

You must know, the medical personnel sent by their master were experts trained in outdoor survival.

It was hard for ordinary people to keep up, let alone their delicate madam…

Lu Zhaozhao chuckled lightly, “Uh… I think I’m okay, I don’t need to rest for now.”

In truth, whether in her past life or this one, she had kept a secret from everyone; she had fought in underground boxing rings after reaching adulthood.

The Lu Family did not want her to enjoy the privileges of being their daughter; apart from emotionally abusing her, they virtually ignored her, so she had plenty of time to box.

If not for the fact that in her previous life, she had eaten the poisoned cubilose given by Xiao Jinglan and harbored frustrations in her heart, her physical condition would not have deteriorated so badly.

Lu Zhaozhao looked around and asked nonchalantly, “Is this the only path up and down Beishan? Are there any particularly dangerous spots?”

Having hiked halfway up, she hadn’t even seen Mr. Song or anyone else; could it be that everything was fine?

Qian Shiyi looked up at the path continuing up the mountain, pointed towards a distant spot, and said, “Past the resting platform ahead, there is a section where the steps are a bit steep, but it’s not much of a challenge for most people.”

Lu Zhaozhao nodded and then continued climbing up.

Just when she thought today’s journey was almost perfectly complete, she saw a familiar figure.

Mr. Song was standing on the steps not far away, drinking water; he appeared to have just finished climbing and was about to head down.

Looking at his condition, he didn’t seem to be someone who had any health issues.

Lu Zhaozhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, preparing to pretend she didn’t recognize him and just walk past, when she suddenly saw Mr. Song stagger a few steps.

With a quick reaction, she rushed forward and grabbed hold of Mr. Song, but his body had already lost balance, causing him to crash into Lu Zhaozhao, and they both fell down the steps together.

“Madam!” Qian Shiyi panicked instantly.

He had only looked away for a moment, and their madam was already in danger!

Supporting herself up, Lu Zhaozhao looked at Mr. Song who had fallen on top of her, endured the discomfort in her back, and yelled at Qian Shiyi, “Call, call the medical team over!”

Mr. Song had just collapsed; there might still be time to treat him!
