“What do you mean by that?” Lu Nuannuan’s face flushed red as she said angrily. “Who would sell Mom and Dad out? Do you think that I don’t want them to be well?” Su Ling indirectly put the blame on Lu Nuannuan as she glared at her. She was just insinuating that Lu Nuannuan spied on the Lu family for Shen Hanxing, but why would she do that?

“Lu Nuannuan, you’re too sensitive. I wasn’t say anything…” Su Ling covered her mouth and chuckled. With the unravelling of the Lu family scandal, her layers of disguise seemed to be peeling off. There was a smile on her face, as if she felt bad for the insensible little girl Lu Nuannuan. But there was a hint of provocation in her eyes. “I’m just afraid that the walls have ears. I’m also concerned about Mom and Dad’s safety. Even if you don’t appreciate my kindness, you shouldn’t misunderstand me, right? We’re family, aren’t we?” She sounded as if she was the one who had been wronged. Lu Nuannuan looked at her in disbelief.

Su Ling smiled as she held her baby bump and threw herself into Lu Shaoyang’s arms and pretended to cry. She sobbed plainly, “Brother Shaoyang, I don’t know if someone said something to Lu Nuannuan to make her so unhappy with me. I’m really doing this for Mom and Dad’s sake. If you don’t believe me, I won’t interfere.” She seemed to be extremely sad as she covered her face and continued, “I don’t need to feel unappreciated like that.”

Su Ling’s reaction blew Lu Shaoyang’s top and he shouted at Lu Nuannuan, “Lu Nuannuan, have you gone mad? Just because Shen Hanxing saved you once, you are willing to bend over backwards for her? Do you even care about Mom and Dad anymore?” The veins on Lu Shaoyang’s neck were throbbing from anger and his face was contorted. He looked a little scary. Disregarding his own image, Lu Shaoyang protected Su Ling with one hand and pointed at Lu Nuannuan’s nose with the other. “You, ingrate who side with outsiders! Su Ling was just thinking for our parents. Why are you so anxious to get angry?”

!!

The more Lu Shaoyang spoke, the angrier he became. He couldn’t help but scoffed, “Mom and Dad had indeed given birth to an ingrate. They worked so hard to raise you. It’s one thing to be ungrateful, but you are siding with the enemy! I don’t have a traitor sister like you!”

In an instant, Lu Shaoyang had forgotten what Mrs. Lu asked of him before she was taken away.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Nuannuan widened her eyes in disbelief and retorted sharply, “I am not! Brother, how can you say that about me? We grew up together. Don’t you know what kind of person I am?” Tears welled up in her eyes, and her heart ached. Why did she and her brother get into such a fight right after her parents were taken away? They had been siblings for so long, and he didn’t even trust her?

Lu Nuannuan’s eyes were red as she shouted, “How can I not want Mom and Dad back? It was clearly Su Ling who picked on me. Are you deaf? Or are you pretending to be deaf? Mom and Dad had just been taken away and she’s already bullying me. Do you really believe that she’ll sincerely find a way to save our parents?” Lu Nuannuan gritted her teeth and glared at Su Ling. “You hypocritical woman! You’re using my brother’s love for our parents to deliberately sow discord between us siblings!”

“Slap!” The crisp sound of a slap interrupted Lu Nuannuan’s words. Lu Nuannuan covered her aching face, unable to believe what had happened. Her eyes widened as she stared blankly at her brother, whom she had always admired. Lu Shaoyang’s breathing was labored, his hand was warm and his face blank. Did he just hit Lu Nuannuan? He didn’t know why he was suddenly furious. His mind just went blank, and he slapped his sister on impulse.

“I…” Lu Shaoyang said throatily. He wanted to explain, but he couldn’t. He curled up his hand weakly. Even he couldn’t believe it. Lu Nuannuan was two years younger than him, and they had grown up together. They came from a wealthy family and their parents loved them dearly and they never had any conflicts. He was a good brother in everyone’s eyes, always taking care of and doting on his sister, Lu Nuannuan. He truly loved her, but now…

“You hit me? You actually hit me?” Lu Nuannuan’s tears fell like raindrops from her eyes..
