After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Her True Identity

"What are you talking about..."

Lu Qianrou was stunned, not expecting Lu Sheng to pull such a stunt, and immediately explained anxiously to Lu Jingyan and the others.

"No, it's not like that, big brother, I didn't put Lu Sheng's hand on my neck, she tried to strangle me as soon as she entered the door!"

"If it weren't for the struggle to get her to let go, how could I have scratched her arm with my nails and left her in this state?"

"Mom, look at my neck, my neck is both red and swollen, that came from Lu Sheng strangling me just now!"

There indeed were red marks on Lu Qianrou's neck, and everyone looked back at Lu Sheng.

"Whatever little sister says, it must be true, right?"

Lu Sheng wiped the tears from her face, drawing her scratched and bleeding arm behind her, seemingly not wanting to defend herself any further.

"You..."

Lu Jingyan, looking at the girl before him who was holding back her tears with a show of strength, suddenly remembered the joy she had shown in his presence, when he agreed to blow-dry her hair, her eyes filled with innocence.

Someone with that kind of gaze, how could they be venomous enough to strangle a sister they had just met?

Besides, Lu Sheng was even thinner than Qianrou, where could she have the strength to make Qianrou unable to resist?

But, Lu Jingyan didn't wish to suspect that Lu Qianrou was deliberately framing Lu Sheng, after all, she was the sister he had cherished for so many years.

"Big brother, I want to go back to the countryside," Lu Sheng said with reddened eyes, looking at Lu Jingyan, "Can you buy me a ticket and take me to the station?"

"You want to go back to the countryside?" Lu Jingyan was taken aback, not expecting Lu Sheng to make such a request.

Lu Jingyan had heard that all these years, Lu Sheng had only stayed with her mother, never having felt any familial affection.

Furthermore, her mother had already passed away. If she went back to the countryside, she would have to live alone, without anyone to take care of her.

As her big brother, with whom she shares half of her blood, how could he...

"No!"

Lu Qianrou didn't expect that the first one to stand up against Lu Sheng's departure would be Jiang Ting, who always favored her and disliked Lu Sheng intensely.

"...Mom?"

Lu Qianrou looked at Jiang Ting in a daze.

"Tomorrow night is the charity dinner hosted by the Fu Family, I received the invitation this afternoon, Old Mr. Fu personally sent an invitation to Lu Sheng, saying he wants to see her tomorrow."

Jiang Ting's expression was unchanged as she coldly regarded Lu Sheng, "Even if you want to go back to the countryside, at least wait until after tomorrow's dinner is over."

Indeed, experience comes with age.

Jiang Ting had more foresight than Lu Qianrou, knowing that the marriage agreement with the Fu Family had not been broken, it wouldn't be so easy to just leave, and the Fu Family might even come knocking.

Why did she have to at least attend tomorrow's dinner before leaving? Probably because she was certain that Lu Sheng would make a fool of herself at the banquet tomorrow and be disdained by the Fu Family.

Old Mr. Fu was so fond of his only grandson, if he didn't take a liking to her, how could he possibly let her become his granddaughter-in-law? He would surely cancel the marriage agreement.

By then, Jiang Ting would be able to drive her away without any hesitation.

What a shrewd plan.

"...Alright then," Lu Sheng bit her lip, "Mom also said she wanted me to meet Grandpa Fu, I will perform well tomorrow."

Jiang Ting certainly didn't hope that Lu Sheng would perform well; she wished for Lu Sheng to embarrass herself at the banquet tomorrow, and the bigger the embarrassment, the better.

After all, she was not her daughter and had not received a day of education from the Lu Family. Even if she lost face, it wouldn't reflect poorly on the Lu Family.

How smart Lu Qianrou was, after a brief moment of confusion, she immediately understood Jiang Ting's intentions, and then she reached out for Lu Sheng.

"I must have misunderstood sister today, and I accidentally scratched her like this, I hope sister doesn't take it to heart."

"Tomorrow's dinner, the Fu Family has invited me to do the opening piano performance, I hope sister can support me from the audience."
