Chapter 52: Claiming Ownership

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“I don’t think I’m the one you need to apologize to.”

Fu Jingshen took a step back and glanced at Lu Miao.

Qin Shuang gritted her teeth. Damn Lu Miao, she must have purposely made her scold Young Master Fu just now.

Thinking of this, she wished she could skin her alive immediately.

But now, she could only bite the bullet and say to Lu Miao, ” Miao Miao, I’m sorry. It was all my fault just now. I was too worried about you. I was too worried, so I spoke without thinking.

I apologize to you and hope that you can let bygones be bygones.”

“Let bygones be bygones is too hypocritical. I prefer to take revenge on the spot.

Put away your hypocritical and disgusting apology. It’s dirtying my ears.” Lu Miao’s eyes were filled with disgust.

Qin Shuang had long been accustomed to constantly insulting Lu Miao verbally. She was already aggrieved when she apologized to her now. When she heard her words, the anger in her heart instantly exploded like a volcano erupting.

Out of habit, she gritted her teeth and scolded, ” You little b * tch..”

Before she could finish scolding, Gu Shiyan’s lighting-fast hand struck her chin, and dislocated it.

No one could see his movements clearly. Qin Shuang’s mouth hung open, no matter how hard she tried, she could not close it.

She was in so much pain that she wanted to scream, but today’s banquet was basically attended by all the wealthy and famous people in Luo City.

If she really screamed out, everyone would know what had happened here. Then, their Lu family would become the joke of the entire upper-class society in the future.

Not to mention marrying Lu Siyu into a good family and finding a strong backing for the Lu family, everyone would probably look down on them.

However, she only dared to cover her mouth and did not dare to make a sound.

Meanwhile, the cowardly Lu Qin was already scared half to death because he had offended Young Master Fu. When he saw that Gu Shiyan was actually so arrogant in front of Young Master Fu without any hesitation, he was so scared that he did not even dare to utter a sound.

Lu Siyu’s eyes darted around Gu Shiyan and Fu Jingshen. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She reached out to pull Fu Jingshen with tears in her eyes. ” Young Master Fu, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have come to look for Miao Miao.

Please, help my mother.”

Her tear-stained appearance was pitiful.

Fu Jingshen’s movements were swift, as if he was avoiding a snake or scorpion. He quickly took a step back and avoided her hand.

He couldn’t afford to enjoy this kind of attention from her.

“Miss Lu, people have to pay the price for their mistakes. Otherwise, why would we need the law?

Lu Siyu’s hand froze in midair, and her face was burning.

Was she that dirty? He didn’t even touch her, and he had to avoid her like this?

This was even more humiliating than slapping her in the face!

What was so good about this little slut, Lu Miao? Mr Gu, Auntie Shen, and Gu Jinxi were all protecting her. Now, even Young Master Fu was protecting her.

And all of this should have belonged to her!

Lu Miao, this slut, should be cut into pieces!

She tried her best to hide the hatred in her eyes and turned to look at Lu Miao, crying, ” Miao..”

Unexpectedly, before she could even finish calling out her name, Gu Shiyan reached out his hands and covered Lu Miao’s ears.

“Don’t shout. Don’t dirty my little friend’s ears.”

This humiliation was even worse than Fu Jingshen’s earlier actions.

More and more people gathered to watch from afar, and those who were clearly gloating did not hide at all.

Lu Siyu only felt as if she was stripped naked. She couldn’t stay here for another second.

Silently crying, she covered her face, turned around, and ran out of the door.

Gu Shiyan glanced at Lu Qin and Qin Shuang coldly.

The two of them didn’t dare to say anything else and left as if they were escaping.

Gu Shiyan lowered his head to look at Lu Miao. “Are you alright?”

Lu Miao was baffled. What could be wrong with her?

It was not like he did not know that she could fight. If the couple met her, they would definitely be the ones who were unlucky.

However, he still nodded. ” It’s fine.”

Fu Jingshen, however, could tell that there was something else behind his words, and he couldn’t help but find it amusing. He had no intention of competing with him for her attention.

Gu Shiyan then turned around and greeted Fu Jingshen.

“I’m sorry to make a fool of myself.

My little friend still had to go home to do her homework, so we won’t stay any longer.

Send my regards to your father.”

Fu Jingshen smiled and replied, ” Take care, Mr Gu.

Just as he was about to say goodbye to Lu Miao, he received a look of rejection from Lu Miao.O

He raised his eyebrows and wisely did not speak again.

As he watched the two of them leave, he raised his hand to stroke his chin.

During their conversation. he had already received all of T .11 Miao’s information

and naturally knew her relationship with Gu Shiyan.

Mr Gu seemed to be in good condition now. It seemed that his recovery was definitely related to Lu Miao.

The last bit of doubt he had about Lu Miao had disappeared.

However, from Lu Miao’s reaction, Gu Shiyan did not seem to know her secret.

Interesting.

When they left the hotel, the car was already waiting outside.

The two of them got into the car. Gu Shiyan turned around and raised his hand to help Lu Miao fasten her seatbelt.

As the distance between them suddenly shortened, Lu Miao could clearly see that Gu Shiyan, who had always been clean and tidy, had a lot of green stubble on his chin. It was obvious that he had rushed back overnight.o

Don’t you need to see Master Fu? ”

Otherwise, why else would he rush back so quickly?

Gu Shiyan did not answer her. Instead, he asked, “How did you know Master

Lu Miao lied with a straight face. ” I don’t know him. My friend asked me to come here today for something. I accidentally got lost and went to the wrong place. I happened to bump into him, but I don’t know who he is.” “Is that so?” Gu Shiyan raised his eyebrows slightly.

His unique refreshing scent invaded every inch of the air around her.

It was as if he wanted to engulf her entirely.

“Yes.”

Lu Miao nodded.

Her expression was extremely calm, without the slightest hint of guilt.

Gu Shiyan straightened out her clothes, which had been crumpled by the seatbelt. He made a sound of agreement and didn’t ask any further questions, turning back to his seat and settling in.

The car drove steadily towards the Gu residence.

Lu Miao turned her head to look out the window. The night had already fallen, and the streets on either side were lit up with dazzling lights.

Gu Shiyan’s handsome face was reflected on the glass of the car window. He was probably too tired from catching the plane and was taking a nap with his eyes closed.

The goddess must have been particularly fond of him when she created him. His exquisite facial features were better than 99% of the girls.

His long eyelashes drooped down, casting a small shadow under his eyelids.

Lu Miao subconsciously raised her hand to touch her own eyelashes. When she looked up, she saw that Gu Shiyan’s eyes had already opened at some point in time. He was turning his head to look at the car window. Their eyes met in the reflection of the glass window.

Lu Miao…

She turned her eyes as if nothing had happened and pretended that nothing had happened. She had not been caught peeking.

A smile flashed across Gu Shiyan’s eyes.

The fatigue of sitting on the plane for more than 20 hours without a break seemed to have dissipated a lot.

The corners of his lips curled up as he retracted his gaze..
