Chapter 23 - Forced Invitation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Jie was surprised. “What? She was at Lin Yue’s brother’s house in the morning, and now she’s pestering Zheng Han again in the afternoon. How shameless!”

“Why did you go to Lin Yuan’s place?” Lu Cai was puzzled.

“Didn’t he stop hanging out with us after he came back from overseas? Every time we want to have a meal with him, he always says that he’s busy with work and never comes. Many people in the circle scolded him behind his back, saying that he looked down on people after he went overseas.” 

“I was accompanying Lin Yue… Eh, Alright, with Yun Jin around, I won’t go over. Sister, can you help me with something? Liu Ren from the Liu family wants to get to know Yun Jin.”

Lu Cai understood what Lu Jie meant and asked playfully, “Why? Do you want to use someone else to kill her and ruin her?”

She knew that Liu Ren from the Liu family had aids.

“MMM, sister, you must help me. If you don’t help me, I won’t be able to woo Zheng Han for the rest of my life. Didn’t you always say that Zheng Han and I are a good match?” Lu Jie said coquettishly.

Lu Cai supported her liking for Zheng Han and had even given her several opportunities to be alone with Zheng Han. However, she had never found the right time to confess.

“Alright, I’ll help.”

Lu Cai did not hesitate and agreed immediately.

After the two of them had agreed on a plan, Lu Cai hung up the phone and walked back to the audience seats.

She did not return to her original seat. Instead, she chatted with a few girls who were sitting in this area. A smile appeared on her face before she walked to Yun Jin’s side.

Yun Jin looked at her in confusion.

Lu Cai smiled. “Yun Jin, there’s a department store nearby. There are many new clothes of Hong Kong, Taiwanese, and foreign styles. They are fashionable and beautiful.”

“They will be playing soccer here for a few hours. We have already discussed going for a walk. You should come along too.”

She did not ask for Yun Jin’s opinion. Her tone sounded more like an informative than an invitation.

Yun Jin rejected her outright. “I’m not interested.”

The Zheng family had prepared a lot of clothes for her. The few wardrobes at home were filled to the brim with all kinds of styles of clothes. She could not finish wearing all of them even if she only chose what she liked to wear. After all, she had to wear her school uniform for most of the week.

“Don’t. It would be boring if everyone comes along and you don’t. Is it because you don’t have enough money on you? It’s fine. I’ll treat you when the time comes.”

Lu Cai was full of enthusiasm. At the same time, she was a little aggressive.

Yun Jin lowered her eyes. It was obvious that there was something fishy going on. Only a fool would go.

She shook her head and continued to refuse.

A few girls sitting at the side saw that they had been talking and did not move. They all walked over to speak up for Lu Cai and persuaded Yun Jin to agree.

Before Yun Jin could speak, Uncle Li became anxious.

He stood up from his seat and said to Lu Cai and the other girls, “Miss Lu Cai, Old Master said this morning that Miss Yun Jin will return to the Zheng family early tonight.”

“Miss Yun Jin is here to watch soccer. I will send her back later. After that, I will come back to pick up Third Young Master.”

“If she doesn’t want to go with you, then you can go by yourself. There are a few people surrounding Miss Yun Jin. It’s not right. She can’t even see you play soccer.”

Lu Cai’s smile froze when she heard that.

She knew that Uncle Li had driven the Zheng family for more than ten years. She had barely said a few words and he had come to speak up for Yun Jin. This proved that Yun Jin was highly favored by Old Master Zheng in the Zheng family.

This was completely different from what she had thought.

It was strange. It was a person with a different surname who had lost power in the family and had no choice but to seek refuge with Old Master Zheng. Even if her grandfather had some friendship with him, he should not be treated like this.

Lu Cai had a headache. For a moment, she regretted agreeing to Lu Jie so easily.

“Is that so? Alright, then we’ll go to the department store. I won’t disturb Yun Jin while you watch the game.”

After hesitating for a while, Lu Cai said dryly.

‘… Let’s stop first. When Old Master Zheng no longer cares about Yun Jin, I shall pull the Liu Ren card.’

When she got home, she would tell Lu Jie that there were many ways to gradually destroy someone without destroying them all at once. Moreover, it would be more concealed and they would not be discovered easily..

She hoped that her sister would be together with Zheng Han, but the prerequisite for this was that they would not offend the Zheng family.

The Lu family still looked glamorous on the surface, but they actually had a lot of difficulties on the inside.

Last year, the United States led other countries to impose domestic sanctions, and a large amount of foreign capital was withdrawn. Other than the Zheng family, which was not affected by the news, the other families had all suffered a huge setback.

Lu Cai forced herself to stay calm and left with the few girls. Soon, only Uncle Li and Yun Jin were left in the area.

“Thank you, Uncle Li.”

Yun Jin thanked him. If it weren’t for Uncle Li coming over to speak, Lu Cai would definitely have been annoyed by the girl at the side.

Although she had some acupuncture techniques that could shut Lu Cai up, if she did that, she would have shed all pretense of cordiality. Those few acquaintances of Lu Cai would definitely cause a ruckus and they would not be able to watch the game anymore.

“Miss Yun Jin, there’s no need. This is what I should do,”Uncle Li said hurriedly with an embarrassed look.

If something happened to Yun Jin because of improper care and he was wronged, then he would have let down Old Master Zheng’s trust.

“Do you want me to send you back to the Zheng family now, Miss Yun Jin?” Uncle Li asked seriously.

Yun Jin shook his head. “Let’s wait until they stop for halftime and inform Zheng Han first.”

In the stadium.

After Bai Lei scored a beautiful goal, he looked for his girlfriend, Lu Cai, in the stands. When he saw that there were only two people sitting on the stands, he was shocked.

“Stop, stop, why is everyone’s girlfriend gone? Zheng Han, your girlfriend is alone,” he shouted.

The people who were playing stopped and looked at the stands..
