Chapter 227 The Winding Road of Jealousy
The Lu family.
When Lu Wanwan returned, she saw Cheng Lu busy in the kitchen. Curious, she went in and saw that Cheng Lu was making desserts.
It was her favorite strawberry cake.
Lu Wanwan's eyes lit up immediately.
She walked up to him happily, "Brother, you're so good to me! How did you know I love strawberry cake? You even made it for me yourself! Waaah! I knew it, you're the best to me."
As she spoke, her eyes lit up as she reached for the strawberry cake.
However, the journey prevented her from taking action.
"Wanwan, the cake isn't for you, it's for Miaomiao."
He said, "If you like to eat it, have the maid buy it for you."
Lu Cheng had sent Chu Miao many things these days. Knowing that Chu Miao liked strawberry cake, he thought of making a strawberry cake for Chu Miao himself.
Because Chu Miao told him.
"I quite like strawberry cake. I had never had strawberry cake before, only in the last two months, and it was really good."
A deep, lingering pain welled up in Lu Cheng's heart.
He knew that Chu Miao hadn't been very happy for the first ten years or so of her life.
He was so oppressed by his grandmother, uncles, and aunts that he couldn't lift his head and never had a good day.
I've never even had a strawberry cake before...
The children of the Lu family, Lu Cheng's younger sister, had actually lived such a life before.
So Lu Cheng wanted to make her a strawberry cake himself.
Lu Wanwan was pampered in the Lu family since she was a child. She had eaten countless strawberry cakes and could buy whatever she wanted herself, so Lu Cheng naturally didn't make any for her.
Lu Wanwan's outstretched hand froze in mid-air.
Looking at the journey ahead, tears slowly welled up in her eyes.
Previously, she was the only young lady of the Lu family, the apple of their eye.
Although Lu Lin'an is also a girl of this generation, she grew up in a military camp and has a carefree personality like a boy. She won't compete with Lu Wanwan for affection and will even spoil Lu Wanwan.
Lu Wanwan has been pampered and spoiled since she was a child.
Now, Chu Miao suddenly appears, the real young lady of the Lu family, the granddaughter of the old master Lu, and the nephew of the three young masters of the Lu family. Her status is even higher than hers. She was already very sensitive, and the Lu family was so obviously biased towards Chu Miao.
She felt extremely wronged.
Before Chu Miao appeared, she was the most pampered young lady in the family. Why did everything change as soon as Chu Miao appeared, and why did Chu Miao become the only one in their hearts?
Lu Wanwan's throat tightened.
Tears welled up and fell uncontrollably.
I walked right past her without seeing her crying.
……
The journey was to find Chu Miao.
I picked her up from school and took her to see Wen Li.
"Miaomiao, this is a strawberry cake for you. Didn't you say last time that you really liked it?" Lu Cheng carried the cake, his handsome face beaming with a smile.
Chu Miao glanced at him, and finally accepted it.
Lu Cheng's smile deepened. "Let's go, let's go to the hospital to see Auntie."
The two walked side by side, and Cheng Lu's aloof and academically gifted demeanor was witnessed by all the students at the affiliated high school.
The female students from the affiliated middle school expressed their heartbreak.
Senior Cheng and Chu Miaomiao are really together!
Director Lin, who was hiding in the shadows with his face covered and only his eyes showing, expressed his deep sorrow and indignation!
He was heartbroken!
He was heartbroken!
Recently, Cheng Lu has been coming to see Chu Miao every day. Despite receiving so many reports, he still doesn't really believe that they are dating in puppy love.
As a result, his two favorite students actually got together and started dating!
Director Lin clutched his chest!
No!
He must find a way to stop them!
……
Lu Cheng and Chu Miao returned to the Chu family.
Wen Li is still resting in her room.
As they walked through the doorway, they heard the sounds coming from inside.
"Jiaojiao, you don't know, during the thirty years you were missing, I thought about you every single day."
“I dream about this every day: there was once a cute little girl who followed behind me and called me sister.”
in the room.
Wen Minhui held Wen Li's hand and said while crying, "Jiaojiao, I really miss you so much. Do you remember? When you were seven years old, you accidentally fell into the river. I saved you, and I had a high fever for three days and three nights because of it."
"But I feel very fulfilled because I protected my dearest sister."
“After you got lost, I was terrified. I was afraid that if I wasn’t by your side, no one would protect you anymore, and I was afraid that you would suffer.”
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face again, and she gripped Wen Li's hand even tighter.
“I know you will come back. You will definitely be alright. For the past thirty years, I have been taking care of Grandpa Lu for you every day, treating him like my own father, and I have never asked for anything in return.”
"Because you said that we are sisters, even if we are not related by blood, we are closer than real sisters."
She cried uncontrollably, as if she were truly overjoyed at Wen Li's return.
Wen Li wasn't very good at handling these kinds of situations; she was most afraid of people crying.
She handed her a tissue, somewhat at a loss.
She couldn't quite remember what Wen Minhui had said, but from Wen Minhui's words, she learned that she was a very, very good older sister, and had been very, very kind to her in the past...
Outside the door, Chu Miao listened to Wen Minhui's words, sneered, and pushed the door open to enter.
"That's interesting. Some people say they're helping my mom take care of Grandpa Lu without asking for anything in return? What kind of return do you want?"
"You, a child from an orphanage, suddenly became the eldest daughter of the Lu family. Everyone thought you were a member of the Lu family and treated you with utmost respect. You also relied on the Lu family's background to live a life of luxury for more than 30 years. Isn't that a reward?"
"I've only ever heard of people suffering hardship and toil while caring for the poor without expecting anything in return, but I've never heard of people enjoying life in the homes of the wealthy without asking for anything in return."
Chu Miao's words were quite sharp.
Wen Minhui's face froze instantly.
Lu Cheng hadn't expected Chu Miao to say such a thing; it was too hurtful.
Wen Li suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Miaomiao, I know you have many misunderstandings about me."
Wen Minhui quickly regained her composure and looked at Chu Miao again, her expression softening once more: "I apologize for what happened before. I'm the kind of person who's protective of my own. Wanwan and I misunderstood you because we believed Chu Yan's words."
“I also did some things that were bad for you and Jiaojiao.” Wen Minhui sighed and said, “I’ve been regretting it these past few days, and I wish I was the one who got slapped back then.”
"Miaomiao, please believe Aunt Hui. I'm not a bad person. I'm just protective of my own. I will definitely treat you well in the future."
"I've prepared lots of gifts for you and your mom. I even bought you some nice clothes. Do you like them?"
As she spoke, Wen Minhui took out a bag and handed it to Chu Miao.
There was a set of clothes inside.
Chu Miao looked at her, then at the clothes inside, and smiled.
