Chapter 37: Sister Can Have Any Star in the Sky
Editor: Henyee Translations
She listened quietly to the obviously heavier breathing coming from the phone. After a few minutes, she took the initiative to ask, "When are you and Dad coming back?"
"About a week."
Lu Bo was calmer, his voice cultured.
Lu Yao responded and said, "Big Brother, the news these few days might affect the company, and the stock price might plummet. I want to handle this matter. I promise that it will be resolved in less than three days."
"No problem!" Lu Bo agreed without hesitation.
Even if Lu Yao asked him for the stars in the sky, he would buy a spaceship and go to the sky to pluck them for her personally, although it was unrealistic.
After learning when her father and brother would be back and obtaining her brother's permission, Lu Yao asked a few simple questions and hung up.
She was still a little embarrassed. Everything that had happened in her previous life seemed to have happened yesterday. Whether Lu Yao had wandered around the border or returned to the Lu family, she had never had close contact with anyone.
She was sensitive and suspicious. She'd never given anyone the benefit of the doubt. From a very young age, she'd learned that the only way the world could be relied on was to rely on herself.
If not for the fact that she had suffered a huge loss from Song Qinglian and Song Miaomiao in her previous life, she would not have let down her guard.
During her conversation with Lu Bo just now, she had unintentionally cared about him and acted coquettishly with him. This feeling made her a little uncomfortable. But it didn't matter. Her father and brothers were the closest people in the world to her. She was sure it wouldn't take long for her to adjust. They were family, after all.
In this life, she would protect her loved ones and not let anyone hurt them.
...
In a certain hall in the east of the capital, Song Qinglian and Song Miaomiao arrived early at this high-class and elegant hall.
The Zhan family contacted them and arranged to meet them here. The mother and daughter were very expectant and excited. They knew very well why the Zhan family could find them and ask to meet.
That night at the Crown Hotel, Lu Yao had a one-night stand with Zhan Jinghong, but Song Miaomiao interfered and replaced Lu Yao with herself.
Therefore, when the Zhan family found out that the person who had contact with Zhan Jinghong was naturally Song Miaomiao, all the benefits given by the Zhan family would naturally be hers.
The reason why Song Miaomiao could recognize Zhan Jinghong in person was because of her stepfather, Lu Xin. Last year, the Lu Family Group's business grew bigger and bigger and gradually became famous in the upper-class circle. Lu Xin also attended many upper-class gatherings. Lu Xin brought Song Qinglian and Song Miaomiao to several top-notch gatherings.
It was only at those gatherings that she truly understood what it meant to be powerful and influential.
Although the Lu family had some assets and were living a carefree life in the capital, in the eyes of those famous families who held the power to kill, they could only be considered an ordinary family.
At the gathering, Song Miaomiao met the heir of the Four Great Clans, Zhan Jinghong. Although the other party did not know her, she immediately saw the man with an extraordinary temperament and an aura of superiority.
That person's picturesque face was slightly pale, and his handsome and exquisite face revealed a flirtatious look. His aura was elegant and noble.
Some people were destined to stand at the top of the pyramid at birth and be admired by everyone.
Most of the women in the gathering were quietly sizing him up, including Song Miaomiao.
The man leisurely paced around the center of the venue, receiving the respectful gazes of everyone present.
Song Miaomiao later found out the man's identity. He was from a century-old prestigious family. The heir of the Zhan family, Zhan Jinghong.
It was rumored that he was decisive and treated people extremely coldly. He did not show his emotions. He was a man who looked gentle and refined but was actually indifferent.
Song Miaomiao knew that the distance between her and the other party was extremely far. It was not a distance that she could shorten no matter how hard she tried.
She never expected that because of Lu Yao, she would have the chance to see Zhan Jinghong again. Unfortunately, that night, she asked someone to throw Lu Yao into another room. Just as she was about to take off her clothes and lie beside Young Master Zhan, the Zhan family suddenly barged in and took the unconscious Zhan Jinghong away without a word.
