Chapter 165 - 165: Ruining Image
“You can rest assured, Mom has found someone to deal with Lu Miao for you,” Qin Shuang said.
“That master is particularly powerful. I heard that he’s the one who saved Mr Guts life behind the scenes. Lu Miao won’t be able to feel smug for long.”
“Mom, are you telling the truth?” Lu Siyu immediately grabbed her hand and asked anxiously.
Qin Shuang nodded affirmatively and looked around before speaking, “I’ve put in a lot of effort to find out. This master I found is the reason why Mr Gu is still alive!”
But Lu Siyu had something else in mind, and her heart stirred. She bit her lip and asked, “Mom, if this master is so powerful, can he do something to make
Gu Shiyan fall in love with me again? If Gu Shiyan likes me, Dad won’t have to worry about the company anymore. And no one will dare to bully our Lu family.”
Her current predicament was all because she let Lu Miao replace her in the Gu family.
If she could make Gu Shiyan fall in love with her again, she could enter the Gu family and turn everything back to how it was. Then all her current troubles would be solved. She wouldn’t need to strive to become an internet celebrity, nor worry about being driven out of the Lu family by Lu Qin and sent back to the countryside.
Qin Shuang’s face brightened upon hearing this, realizing that she hadn’t thought of this.
“You’re my clever daughter. I’ll talk to that master right away.”
At the Lingyue Manor, Lu Miao had just finished washing up when she received a message from Lin Bufan on her phone.
From the long dots after his message, she could tell how speechless he was about what he saw.
Lu Miao quickly scanned through the message and a smirk formed at the corners of her lips.
Unexpectedly, there was such a good opportunity. It seemed like the money was coming to her wallet willingly.
“Tell her it’s okay, but add another five million.”l
Qin Shuang and Lu Siyu seemed to be truly desperate, to actually come up with such an idea.
The legendary Love Charm did exist, and she could actually do it.
But the method and dosage were extremely strict, and a slight mistake could lead to disastrous consequences.
As for the consequences of making a mistake, heh…
Since Qin Shuang wanted it, she would satisfy her request.
Lin Bufan immediately messaged Qin Shuang to discuss further.
Lu Miao raised her hand and touched her chin, pondering how she could swindle more money from Qin Shuang.
After all, when Fu Jingshen and Gu Shiyan made their move at the Jin family, they brought in two billion. If she scammed too little, it would be embarrassing.
The next day, Lu Miao woke up early and went to school after breakfast.
When she entered the classroom, she was momentarily stunned.
“Boss!” Shen Muhan was sitting in his seat, looking at her with a pleasantly surprised expression.
“So soon?
Lu Miao walked up and reached out to grab Shen Muhan’s wrist to check his
pulse.
“Hehe, the doctor said I still need another month or two of rehabilitation, but I find it too boring at the hospital, so I insisted on coming to class every day.”
Shen Muhan chuckled and his complexion visibly improved. It seemed that his health was good.
After examining him, Lu Miao said, “You’re recovering well, but you still need to be careful. The main injury is in your cervical spine, so don’t sit for too long every day, and plan your exercise time. You can come to class, but choose either morning or afternoon and only stay for half a day.”
“Okay, Boss, got it.” Shen Muhan nodded without hesitation.
He was already happy to be able to recover and attend class, even if it was only for half a day.
“Boss, Boss, isn’t my idol super handsome? Did you take a photo with him and ask for an autograph?” Su MO asked excitedly.
Although Gu Ziheng’s appearance on the recording hadn’t aired yet, the whole world knew that he participated in “Super Brain.”
Lu Miao touched her nose slightly guiltily and said, “He is very handsome. I’ll help you get an autograph next time.”
How should Lu Miao tell Su MO that she not only knows her idol but also lives with him?
“Hehe, thank you, Boss. Love you-” Su MO happily sent her a heart emoji.
Lu Miao felt even more guilty.
The other students in the class had gathered around by now, asking her about the competition. Although the final results hadn’t been announced yet, everyone in the class was already convinced that Lu Miao was surely the champion.
The whole class was filled with joy and excitement.
During lunch break, Shen Muhan obediently called his driver to pick him up and leave.
Lu Miao, on the other hand, headed towards the observatory behind the sports field.
Nearly two months had passed, and the observatory was almost completed. They were now in the final stages of construction.
It was time to prepare for the final step.
At this time, it was lunchtime, and there was no one at the construction site.
Lu Miao went straight upstairs, pushed open the iron door to the top floor, and as soon as she took a few steps, she spotted a familiar figure sitting on the stone steps in front of the rooftop.
Hearing footsteps, Lu Siyu turned her head and her expression immediately turned ugly upon seeing who it was.
The incident of leaking the competition questions had already been exposed on the internet. Although Qin Shuang had spent money to suppress the trending topics, many people were still aware of it.
She hadn’t planned to come to school so soon, but she was afraid of angering Lu Qin, so she reluctantly came.
The whole morning, everyone in the class was pointing and talking about her, and she couldn’t even lift her head in the class.
She didn’t dare to go home or eat in the cafeteria, so she could only hide here alone.
Suddenly, she stood up, walked towards Lu Miao, and spoke bitterly, “Lu Miao, haven’t you caused enough trouble for me? Are you enjoying seeing me being trampled on and cursed by everyone? Do you want to come here to mock me and get rid of me?”
Lu Miao was speechless. “So much drama.”
The observatory was about to be completely finished, and she was just here to inspect and make final preparations for the final step. She didn’t care how Siyu was doing.
After saying that, she turned around and was about to walk towards the other side.
However, Lu Siyu stepped forward two steps and blocked her path.
Gritting her teeth, she said, “You’re really cunning. In just two months, you’ve managed to win over Auntie Shen, Mr Gu, Gu Ziheng, and Gu Jinxi. I underestimated you!”
Lu Miao raised an eyebrow and tilted her head, looking at her. “Why stop pretending? Weren’t you always portraying a weak and fragile innocent girl image?”
“Lu Miao!”
Lu Siyu was so furious that her eyes were spitting fire.
“Lower your voice. You’re ruining your image,” Lu Miao said, annoyed, as she reached up and rubbed her ear.
Lu Siyu’s face turned red. She remembered what Qin Shuang had told her yesterday and sneered, calming down.
“Don’t think that you’ve bewitched Lu Yinan and teamed up with him to kick me out of the talent show, so I’ll be at a dead end and surrender to you. Lu Miao, don’t get too arrogant too soon. Everything you’ve taken from me will eventually return to my hands.. Let’s wait and see!”
