Chapter 730 Are you dreaming?!
Chapter 730 Are you dreaming?!
"Ah!"
Another distinctive sneeze echoed through the enclosed carriage.
Chu Yunting, in the passenger seat, leaned out again and muttered softly, "No, are you sick? You've sneezed three times in a row."
Zhou Yichen gently rubbed the tip of his nose, only glancing at him out of the corner of his eye before continuing to concentrate on driving his car.
He then said to Yang Zheng, "When you get back, see which day Chu Xin has arranged to leave. While you're still in Kyoto, prepare some medicine in case of emergency. If any medicine is hard to find, let me know and I'll get it for you."
The province of Su had just been cleaned up, and there were no new developments yet. Chu Xin's trip would likely go directly to a coastal city. With Su Zihang there to help relay messages, her going there would be tantamount to waiting for those people to come and die.
Kyoto and coastal cities are not a short distance apart, one in the south and the other in the north, and the journey is not guaranteed to be smooth sailing, so it's always good to be prepared.
"Well, I see."
Yang Zheng agreed, already starting to plan what he needed to prepare.
…………
After her chance encounter with Jia Zhenyan and his group on the street, Lu Shujing returned home furious and demanded that her father stand up for her, but was instead dealt with by Madam Lu.
"Look at yourself! Do you even have the manners of a girl?!"
What good does it do to hang out with those gay men all the time? They've led you astray. And Lu Shengying, do you really think he's sincere towards you?
Lu Shujing was annoyed and naturally didn't want to listen to her nagging. Besides, she wasn't close to Lu Shengying, so why did her mother still like to gossip?
So she retorted, "My dad already said we're family, why are you still saying these things? I've already been very careful to guard against him, what more do you want? Do you really want me to get married and have no family to rely on?"
This is pure paranoia!
Enraged, Madam Lu slammed down the cup in her hand. "I think you're trying to drive me crazy! Your only support has always been your father and me. How can you rely on a cousin like him?!"
Lu Shujing smiled smugly, "Hmph, didn't you see how high and mighty I always act in front of him? In the future, he will not only have to take care of you in your old age, but he will also have to stand up for me in my husband's family!"
These remarks nearly made Mrs. Lu faint with anger. She felt she couldn't bear to look at her silly daughter, as those years abroad had completely ruined her.
Just then, Lu Shujing brought up her acquaintance with Ge Shaoting, her voice sharp as she insisted that her father teach that man who didn't respect her a lesson.
"I think you've really been led astray!" Madam Lu was finally unable to control her daughter any longer, so she sent her back to her parents' home that very day.
In Madam Lu's view, Lu Shengying deliberately led her daughter astray in order to control their family in the future.
Lu Shujing's maternal family is a scholarly family with strict family discipline, so letting her stay there for a while wouldn't be a bad thing.
Lu Shujing couldn't stand it after only two days there.
Especially since she was not allowed to contact outsiders during this period, including her cousin, the sudden change from being pampered to being ignored was too much for Dalu Shujing to accept.
She was born with the temperament of a pampered young lady, and because she was often away from home, she lacked proper discipline, and because someone deliberately influenced her, she became arrogant.
Even after returning to China, Lu Jianshe warned her that she should act with more discretion than she did abroad, but she never truly felt any sense of awe.
Since arriving at her maternal grandparents' home, she had been severely reprimanded no matter what she did. In addition, after the Jia Zhenyan incident, she had always been in a state of frustration. With each setback building up, Lu Shujing could no longer hold back and found a way to sneak out.
Because she was still angry with her mother, she didn't go back to her own home, but instead went to find Lu Shengying.
