Fu Man stiffened.
With one hand gripping Lu Xinnuanâs throat and the other leisurely playing with a leaf, Lu Mian smiled, âDuring the kidnapping incident, I was choked just like this. The kidnapper asked who to save, and you all said, âSave the sisterâ.â
Upon hearing this, everyone around suddenly understood; the kidnapping case from two years ago had caused a huge stir, and they all knew about it.
Now that the person involved said so, how could they not understand what was going on!
âMian Broâ¦â
Fat Hao Shouhao cried his eyes out, what kind of feelings must she have had to smile and speak these words?
Fu Man collapsed to the ground, clutching Lu Mianâs pant leg.
âMianmian, Mommy was wrong⦠Mommy was really wrong, please let go of Nuannuan, she has passed outâ¦â
Lu Mian remained unaffected, lightly blowing on the leaf, and said leisurely, âIt seems youâve already made your choice.â
Fu Man, unable to comprehend, looked up at her.
But saw Lu Mian slightly bending over, speaking in a light and indifferent tone, âFrom now on, I have nothing to do with you all.â
Nothing to do with themâ¦
She was going to sever ties with the Lu Family!
âWhat happens to me in the future is none of your concern. What happens to you is also none of my concern. Blood relations canât bind me, they only make me feel more disgusted.â
ââ¦â
Fu Man clutched desperately at her heart, as if she too was being choked and unable to breathe.
She opened her mouth but couldnât make a sound.
By the time she found her voice again, Lu Mian had already released her fingers.
Due to lack of oxygen, Lu Xinnuan had already passed out.
Fu Man quickly caught her falling daughter and frantically pressed the emergency call on her phone.
Lu Mian scoffed, unconsciously wiping her fingers, and signaled to Fat Hao and Shouhao to leave.
The Fat and Thin brothers hurriedly wiped their tears and followed closely by her side.
âMian Bro, tissue to wipe your hands.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMian Bro, Iâll treat you today.â
Both of them were heartbroken and wanted to comfort her, but after all, as awkward teenage boys, their attempts at consolation were a bit clumsy.
Lu Mian laughed lightly, as if nothing had happened. It wasnât her who had choked Lu Xinnuan, it wasnât her who had severed ties with her family.
She was just Lu Mian.
Haughty, rebellious, wicked, and disdainful of worldly affairs.
She could be an angel, or she could be a demon.
She had full control over her own world; she wasnât happy to own, nor worried to lose anything.
She was herself.
The two brothers were at a loss for words, not knowing what to say or do.
Lu Mianâs eyes held a faint smile as she ruffled their heads.
âLetâs go, Iâm treating you guys to MM Ji.â
âMian Bro⦠doesnât it hurt?â
She shook her head, âNope.â
ââ¦Actually, now that no one else is around, if you want to cry, just cry! Weâre here with you!â
âMian Bro, itâs okay to feel bad, reallyâ¦â
âOh.â Lu Mian touched her chin, thinking seriously for a moment, and pouted slightly, âActually⦠when the heart is dead, thereâs no feeling.â
â
Lu Mian took the brothers to MM Ji Restaurant.
The server arranged for them the Number One private room.
Along the way, they could sense that Lu Mian didnât seem to be too upset, and this put them somewhat at ease; consequently, their conversation relaxed a bit.
âMian Bro, you were so cool today!â
âRight, especially when you were choking Lu Xinnuan, it was so badass!â Fat Hao said with admiration, âItâs comparable to my Wucheng Guardian Goddess!â
âYour⦠Wucheng Guardian Goddess?â Shouhao rolled his eyes, âYou donât even know who she is, and youâre calling her a goddess.â
âAnyhow, sheâs definitely a woman. She does good deeds quietly; sheâs my goddess! Of course, my Mian Bro is also awesome, donating twenty million in a flash!â
âYeah, yeah!â
Talking about these exhilarating things, Fat Hao and Shouhao got their blood pumping.
The two exchanged smiles, finally finding the best way to comfort Lu Mian.
âMian Bro, just wait, Iâm going to get a case of beer! Weâre not going home till weâre drunk today!â
âRight, not going home till weâre drunk!â
