Chapter 1282: Treat It Like I’m No Longer Part of the Lu Family!

This time, since Cai Jingyao had returned, she wasn’t planning on wasting her time. Her determination… wouldn’t waver simply because of a few mere words from Lu Jinnan.

Now, be it Lin Nuan, Song Yao, or Bai Xiaonian, they had all married and given birth. Among the four of them in the hostel back then, three of them were now married to prominent figures. Cai Jingyao didn’t wish to continue wasting her time.

She, Cai Jingyao, was the most outstanding one among the four of them. She also considered herself to be the prettiest. If she was going to find a man… it would be someone better than what Lin Nuan, Song Yao, and Bai Xiaonian had, or at least it couldn’t be someone inferior to them!

She drew two tissues and wiped her fair and petite hands dry, then moistened a tissue and wiped away the smeared makeup under her eyes. After fixing herself up, Cai Jingyao left the bathroom!

This time… she was going to stake everything on this!

Firstly, she needed to clutch onto Lu Jinbei in order to hook up with Lu Jinnan…

Then, using Lu Jinnan, the one Cai Jingyao truly desired… was Lin Nuan’s husband, Fu Huai’an.

Only a man like that was compatible with her!

“Are you okay? Did my brother say something nasty to you in the kitchen?” Lu Jinbei lowered his head and asked Cai Jingyao, one hand placed on the bathroom door.

Hearing Lu Jinbei’s words, tears started accumulating in Cai Jingyao’s eyes again. She smiled and shook her head. “No, it’s really because of the onions!”

Lu Jinbei knew his older brother’s quirk, that ever since Hong Jinyun disappeared, Lu Jinnan’s bias against women had reached a peak. Even after he got together with Bai Xiaonian, it didn’t change his prejudice against women.

He guessed that perhaps Lu Jinnan had thought that Cai Jingyao had ulterior motives behind getting together with him, and so he said nasty words to her in the kitchen.

“You rest for a while. I’ll go find him…”

Lu Jinbei then walked towards the kitchen.

“Jinbei!” Cai Jingyao grabbed Lu Jinbei’s wrist. “Don’t go. I’m really fine… It was really the onions that stung my eyes. Furthermore… your brother loves you so much. If you malign your brother suddenly because of me, he’ll be sad!”

The more Cai Jingyao put it this way, the angrier Lu Jinbei got…

If Lu Jinnan truly loved him as a brother, why would he get together with Bai Xiaonian despite knowing he couldn’t live without her?

Also, back then, Lu Jinnan even forced himself on Bai Xiaonian to make Bai Xiaonian choose to be with him. This was what Lu Jinbei found hardest to accept.

Lu Jinbei yanked Cai Jingyao’s hand away and entered the kitchen. Lu Jinnan plated the food, then turned around and glanced at Lu Jinbei. “You’re here just in time. Take the food into the dining room…”

Lu Jinbei nearly subconsciously received the plate Lu Jinnan handed him. His vision fell upon the phone at the bottom of the basin, which had glitter studs on it. It was Cai Jingyao’s phone.

Anger surged to the top of his head. “What’s wrong with you, Lu Jinnan? Even if you’re prejudiced against women, you can’t throw a girl’s phone into the water! Moreover, this girl is the fiancée your younger brother brought home! Can you be more reasonable?”

Lu Jinnan gazed at Lu Jinbei with his dark eyes, his thin lips pursed, giving off an intimidating aura.

Although the way Lu Jinnan stared at him gave him the chills, he still stiffened his neck sheepishly. “Did I say something wrong? Never mind that you snatched Bai Xiaonian away from me. Why are you picking on the girl I brought home? Are you, Lu Jinnan, the only one deserving of happiness in this world? I, Lu Jinbei, can’t be happy?”

“Lu Jinbei!” Lu Jinnan’s father howled softly outside the kitchen. He entered the kitchen and closed the door. “Why are you making a fuss here? Don’t you know Xiaonian is resting?”

“Dad! Look at this yourself! Lu Jinnan threw Cai Jingyao’s phone into the basin!” Lu Jinbei set the plate down heavily on the countertop and pointed at the phone that had sunken to the bottom of the basin, which had vegetables floating at the surface.

“Did Cai Jingyao tell you that I threw her phone into the basin?” Lu Jinnan asked with a tense face.

Lu Jinbei said in a choked voice, “She didn’t say. But I don’t need her to tell me that! Isn’t it clear for all to see? Who doesn’t know what attitude you have towards women!”

“Lu Jinbei… if I wasn’t considering the fact that you’re younger than me, you would have a broken leg by now!” There was accumulated rage in Lu Jinnan’s eyes. “You’re a grown man, all of 1.85 meters tall, yet your brain is the size of a sesame seed! It’s true that I’m prejudiced against women, but are you truly ignorant, or are you pretending not to see that this Cai Jingyao woman has impure intentions? Or… are you counting on me to fall for that kind of trash so that you can come in between your sister-in-law and me? You’re quite something, Lu Jinbei!”

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Lu Jinbei was angered by Lu Jinnan, so he spoke thoughtlessly. “If I hadn’t dumped Bai Xiaonian back then, none of this would concern you, murderer!”

It was like the air had stagnated.

“Lu Jinbei, are you mad?” Lu Jinnan’s father fiercely slapped Lu Jinbei’s arm.

Lu Jinbei knew that he had said something wrong, but he wasn’t willing to admit his mistake. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Did I say something wrong? I merely brought home a girl, and I’m accused of trying to snatch Bai Xiaonian back! If I hadn’t dumped Bai Xiaonian back then… he wouldn’t stand a chance! What right does he have to swagger before me and bully my woman? He feels too good about himself. You think every woman in the world wants to seduce you, right? If you’re that great, why don’t you go be president!”

“Shut up!” Lu Jinnan’s father tugged at Lu Jinbei’s arm.

Lu Jinbei appeared more aggressive now. He shrugged away his father’s hand and said, “I’m going to marry Cai Jingyao! If you disagree, treat it like I’m no longer part of the Lu family!”

Lu Jinbei then pulled open the kitchen door and left.

“Lu Jinbei!” Lu Jinnan’s father called out his name.

Cai Jingyao stood helplessly in the living room, her face full of tears as she watched Lu Jinbei come out of the kitchen…

Without another word, Lu Jinbei grabbed Cai Jingyao’s wrist and began walking out.

“Xiao Bei…” Cai Jingyao called out to him in a gentle and frail voice as she was forcibly dragged to the entryway by Lu Jinbei.

“Change your shoes! We’re leaving!” Lu Jinbei said to Cai Jingyao as he changed his shoes.

“Lu Jinbei, if you dare step out of this house today, don’t ever come back!” Lu Jinnan’s father’s chest was heaving violently.

“Uncle!” Cai Jingyao called out to Lu Jinnan’s father, then tugged at Lu Jinbei’s arm. “Stop fooling around, Xiao Bei. Don’t fall out with your family because of me. I’ll leave first today. I’ll come back another day to apologize to Uncle and Brother Jinnan!”

“Fine, I won’t ever come back again! Just take it that I’m no longer your son from now on, and Lu Jinnan doesn’t have me as a younger brother! Take it that I’m no longer part of the Lu family!” Lu Jinbei howled, then dragged Cai Jingyao out of the house before slamming the door loudly and leaving.
