The Film Tycoon’s National Sister (16)
This kind of scum .
Bai Ziwen actually wanted to send Bai Weiwei to the bed of such a scum and pervert?
And it wasn’t the first time .
She escaped last time…
Lu Zixi, listening inside, heard the familiar name of that hotel .
Wasn’t it the hotel he had woken up in last time?
That time when she had run into his room, was it an accident?
Lu Zixi furrowed his brows in thought . He felt that Bai Weiwei’s character wasn’t like that of a woman who was used to climbing into people’s beds .
If she had any IQ .
She wouldn’t return to Bai Ziwen’s side to be beaten, scolded, and sold off .
He had brought her back to the Lu family . If her face was thick-skinned, holding on to him without letting go would have been the right thing to do .
When he returned home, he realized that she had already left .
Suddenly, the noise behind the door went quiet .
Lu Zixi’s fingers twitched, and all sorts of terrible conjectures flashed through his mind .
Was Bai Weiwei beaten to death?
She deserved it .
It was none of his business .
Lu Zixi smiled coldly . The gloominess between his brows hadn’t dissipated . Instead, the expression in his eyes was ever more ruthless .
He wasn’t a good person .
For Bai Ziwen, the mother and daughter, to live a life worse than death was what he most wanted to see .
The daughter was the first to go .
Then he would deal with Bai Ziwen .
Kill two birds with one stone .
Suddenly, Bai Weiwei’s weak voice came from behind the door .
“Gege…”
The cry was so weak it was nearly inaudible .
Lu Zixi didn’t know how he heard it .
Bai Weiwei was calling for him?
He couldn’t stop himself from approaching the door, and he heard Bai Weiwei say: “When will you come protect me…”
Lu Zixi suddenly reacted .
Bai Weiwei wasn’t calling for him .
She was calling for… the gege that had never appeared once, her imaginary gege .
That gege she had made up .
Would protect her .
Lu Zixi’s heart clenched so tightly that it was hard to breathe .
It was painful, as though the breath in his lungs was blocked .
He abruptly turned around and walked at a terrifyingly fast pace .
As though if he was afraid if he stayed a second longer, he would do something he would regret .
As he walked down the hallway, he saw a few posters on the bulletin board .
The girl on the poster had a pure and beautiful smile .
Her eyes were filled with a pure light .
As though she had never seen the darkness in the world .
It was Bai Weiwei’s green tea advertisement . The advertisement wasn’t high-end .
It was very common for directors to just shoot whatever .
But because of Bai Weiwei’s presence, it had exploded in popularity .
People were still looking for the green tea meimei, but they didn’t know that she was being abused by her own mother .
Lu Zixi lowered his head . His eyes were somewhat red .
He didn’t know if it was from anger or sorrow .
He suddenly told himself coldly: “She should be punished for her sins1 . She deserves to die . ”
Yes, his mom had jumped .
It was all because she was born, so don’t expect him to acknowledge that… she was his sister .
【Ding, the male lead’s favorability is 10 . 】
Bai Weiwei heard the notification and knew that Lu Zixi had finally become softhearted .
Hearing that she was so miserable .
Even if he hated her, his heart still held some sympathy for her .
Everyone had their vices2 .
Seeing one’s hated enemy living miserably, one’s heart would definitely feel pleased . If their live became even worse, one might even feel a false3 sense of sympathy .
This was precisely Lu Zixi’s state of mind .
Even if it was false sympathy, it was still a favorable impression .
Bai Weiwei: “Did he leave?”
System: “He was relieved to see you were miserable, so he went very far away . ”
Bai Weiwei: “…”
This system wouldn’t speak the human language .
Bai Ziwen sobered up a bit and realized that something was off .
She had smashed things, but they didn’t seem to have hit Bai Weiwei . Why did her cheap4 daughter cry so miserably?
1: 罪有应得: guilty and deserves to be punished; the punishment fits the crime . ↩
2: 劣根性: deep-rooted bad habits? 根性 is apparently a Buddhist term meaning one’s true nature . ↩
3: 假惺惺: insincere or hypocritical; to shed crocodile tears . ↩
4: 便宜货: a bargain, or cheap goods . Can refer to someone or something obtained at a cheaper price or with less effort, or a fake (good) . Both could work with regard to Bai Weiwei’s identity here, since she was taken from an orphanage and isn’t Bai Ziwen’s actual daughter . ↩
