Chapter 8:
The next day, my parents came back.
They immediately called, asking me and Lu Huanzhou to go home.
"I'll accompany you inside," Shi Yu said.
When we arrived at the door, Shi Yu didn't leave but instead got out of the car with me.
"Lu Huanzhou is an idiot now.
It's safer for me to be with you," he said.
Once we entered the house, I saw Lu Huanzhou sitting on the couch.
He was dressed in a suit, his expressionless face looking unexpectedly serious.
Lin Bailu sat beside him, still wearing a qipao embroidered with snowflakes and pear blossoms, with slightly red eyes.
"I heard about yesterday from Huanzhou," my dad spoke up.
"He said he just wanted to teach you a lesson and didn't actually harm you." Tears immediately rolled down my face as I choked up and said, "I already knew he wouldn't admit it.
After all, what killer would admit to killing someone?" Lu Huanzhou held onto his Buddhist beads and looked at me with eyes as sharp as a knife, saying, "You're just spewing lies.
Truly a wretched creature." "Tsk." Shi Yu suddenly took a step forward, blocking me, and said, "Lu Huanzhou, are you really that stupid? After carrying those useless beads for seven years, this is how Buddha wants you to speak about your own sister?" "I don't have a sister like that—" "That's enough."
」 My dad suddenly spoke up, interrupting us.
"Our family matters have already been spread to outsiders, and you still think it's not embarrassing enough?" As he said this, he cast a sharp glance at Shi Yu and Lin Bai Lu, who were sitting on the sofa.
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
"Huan Zhou, even if Yin Yin was ignorant and bullied you as a friend before, it is not a reason for you to harm your own sister." I instinctively retorted, "I didn't bully..." "And Yin Yin too." My dad looked at me again, his tone not allowing any retorts.
"Your brother didn't intend it, I will make him apologize to you, and I will transfer the Rose Villa that comes with the Meigui Mountain Estate to your name." "Siblings fighting each other, if it spreads outside, it's not good for any of you." "This matter ends here."
