When Lu Ning finished school, Lu Zhi came to pick her up.

On the way home, Lu Ning turned her head sharply and saw a black Volkswagen following not far away.

Lu Ning watched for a while. The car suddenly sped up and overtook the two of them, quickly disappearing around the corner.

Lu Ning frowned slightly.

“Ning’ning, Jingzhi is going to participate in a competition this weekend. Do you want to come along?”

Lu Ning said gently, “Sure.”

…

Recently, Lu Jingzhi had been participating in more and more competitions. Their teachers valued him very much and had gathered many competitions for him to participate in. Lu Jingzhi had rejected some which was overseas, while he accepted those which were local.

On the weekend, the family brought him to the competition. The teachers would wait for them at the event location.

The results of the competition were announced at the event location, and Lu Jingzhi advanced without any surprise.

However, they were going to the capital next week to participate in the finals.

Lu Jingzhi was a little hesitant. He only felt at ease when Lu Ning said that she wanted to accompany him.

The winner of this competition would receive a prize of ten thousand yuan.

The competition was held in an office building near the mall. After the competition, Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi took the two of them to the nearby mall.

It was rare for Lu Ning to wear her own clothes today. She usually wore her school uniform. She was wearing a pair of black sweatpants and a thin black sweater

underneath. She wore a small jacket over it. It couldn’t be any simpler. It looked good on her.

When Lu Ning brought Lu Jingzhi to buy ice cream, two girls walked out of the luxury store next door. They seemed to have seen her and turned around to leave.

After a while, four or five people came out and looked over. Lu Ning noticed that they were looking over, and they immediately avoided her gaze.

It was just a glance, but Lu Ning recognized these people.

They were all young ladies from the families that had business dealings with the Lu family.

Lu Ning retracted her gaze indifferently. She took the ice cream and handed it to Lu Jingzhi, and the two of them walked back.

When he passed by the shop, she was stopped.

“Lu Ning?”

Lu Ning turned around to look at her.

The people behind her looked at Lu Ning and sized her up.

She didn’t say anything, but the person behind her said, “Ah, it’s really Lu Ning.

I almost didn’t recognize her dressed like this.” The girl who stopped Lu Ning frowned and walked closer to look at her. “How

have you been recently?”

Lu Ning looked at her. “Pretty good.”

She hesitated before saying, “If you’re having any difficulties, you can call me.” Before Lu Ning could speak, a sarcastic voice came from behind her again.

“Yo, Sun Qian, I’m afraid you’ve made a mistake. How could the Young Mistress of the Lû family have any difficulties? Oh wait, hold on! Look at my memory, the Young Mistress of the Lu family is no longer this girl here.”

After saying that, the few people with her snickered.

Sun Qian looked at Lu Ning and looked at her apologetically. “Lu Ning, ignore them. Call me if you need anything. You can leave first.”

Lu Ning did not say anything and turned to leave. She did not intend to talk to them anymore.

“‘I’sk-tsk. Sun Qian, aren’t you afraid of being tainted by her stench of poverty?” Sun Qian was stunned. She turned to look at them and frowned. Just as she was about to speak, Lu Ning stopped in her tracks and turned to look at them, a cold glint in her eyes.

Sun Qian knew very well that Lu Ning was not fighting with these people now.

She was afraid that she would be bullied and wanted to persuade her to leave first. Just as she was pulling Lu Ning, Lu Jingzhi, who was beside Lu Ning, ran over and looked up at the girls..
