Words:843Update:22/06/26 10:47:16
Lu Ziming was He Xiaoman's favorite son. He had been smart since he was a child and was treated like a treasure in the Lu family. Hence, he was spoiled to the point of being out of control. He ignored everyone and was the typical arrogant, disrespectful second-generation heir of a wealthy family.
Lu Ziming did not have much contact with Huo Yao since they did not grow up together. He Xiaoman would only bring Huo Yao home during the Lunar New Year. Lu Ziming, who was doted on by He Xiaoman, would always take the opportunity to bully and set her up.
Lu Ziming was the main reason why the Lu family hated Huo Yao so much.
"Hey, coward. Why didn't you greet me when you saw me?" said Lu Ziming arrogantly to Huo Yao as he put his phone in his pocket.
Huo Yao did not even bat an eyelid. She turned around and picked up a clean cup unhurriedly. She poured some water into the cup and placed one of the pills she had brought from the Huo residence into the cup at an angle where no one could see.
Lu Ziming walked around and stood next to Huo Yao. "I'm talking to you. Are you deaf?"
Lu Xia's lips twitched slightly as though she was waiting for a good show to unfold.
Huo Yao swirled the glass in her hand as though she did not see Lu Ziming. She turned around and handed the glass to the old lady. "Have some water."
The old lady was about to take the glass when Lu Ziming became upset at being ignored again. He was used to being arrogant and domineering, so he raised his hand to snatch the glass. "Lu Yao, you've grown bolder, haven't you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he felt a sharp pain in his wrist. In the next second, a strong force pulled him and he stumbled. Lu Ziming instinctively shuddered when he raised his head and met Huo Yao's emotionless eyes.
"Didn't your mother teach you to be a proper person?" Huo Yao looked at Lu Ziming condescendingly. Her deep eyes were cold. Although her voice was soft, there was an inexplicable sense of danger in it.
Lu Ziming felt like he was being targeted by a tiger. The pain in his wrist paled in comparison to the look in Huo Yao's eyes. He opened his mouth while trembling. "I... Let go of me."
Huo Yao looked at his cowardly face and sneered. "Don't be rude if you don't have the guts. You're embarrassing yourself."
With that, she loosened her grip.
The color drained from Lu Ziming's face as he clutched his aching wrist. He wanted to say something but did not dare to. He seemed to be frightened.
Lu Xia snapped out of her trance and glanced at Lu Ziming. She hurriedly walked up to him and shielded him. "Huo Yao, why did you hit a kid? No matter what, Ziming was once your younger brother! "
Huo Yao raised her brow and her eyes landed on Lu Xia's face. She smiled playfully and said, "Are you putting on a show?"
Lu Xia frowned. "You …"
Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Ziming pushed her away. He had already embarrassed himself in front of Huo Yao. Now that Lu Xia had spoken up, he felt even more humiliated. In the end, he glared at Huo Yao and stormed off angrily.
Lu Xia also felt embarrassed and stood stiffly in the same place.
Half a minute later, Lu Ziming walked out of the ward and returned to the door. "Mom, why are you still here? Someone is willing to stay and take care of Grandma. Don't worry about it."
With that, he really left without looking back.
He Xiaoman had always doted on her son, so she could not be bothered to lecture Huo Yao anymore. She hurriedly chased after him.
