After Giving up, the Fake Young Lady Was Group-Pampered
Chapter 40

Chapter 40

Li Xing’s words were very reasonable. If it was an ordinary person, they wouldn’t have rejected him. Yue Lingfeng also didn’t have the habit of making things difficult for a child. However, the prerequisite was that Zhao Lei didn’t have any hostility towards Yue Xin.

“There’s no need to ask me. I’m just a freeloader. I can’t make the decision.” Yue Lingfeng swallowed the meat in his mouth and said.

Only then did Li Xing look at Yue Xin. Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Xue suddenly said, “Sister Yue Xin, can you let Little Lei sit over there? He picked up a lot of firewood this morning. Why don’t you let him eat properly to replenish his strength? I’m afraid he won’t be able to hold on in the afternoon. As adults, we are fine, but Little Lei…”

“Auntie, Zhao Lei is about the same age as my Sister Yue. Don’t talk about age,” Han Wen added.

Zhou Xue replied, “Xiao Wen, I know that there are some misunderstandings between us, but now that we’re living in such an environment together, we’re all on the same team. We have to help each other. We’re not opponents, let alone enemies. I hope that we can resolve the misunderstanding. Also, Sister Yue Xin, if you have any objections to me or everyone, say it now. That way, we can cooperate better in the future, don’t you think so?”

These words almost made Yue Xin believe that she was a heartless villain who abused children. She didn’t let the child eat and even asked him to do heavy work. She didn’t say anything and even had a problem with everyone. Oh, she had calculated that she wouldn’t say anything and deliberately said that. But she was just eating just now, eating what she deserved.

Zhou Xue’s words and expressions were very infectious. Many of the audience were led astray by her and stood on her side.

[Yue Xin is indeed a little too much. She’s too selfish.]

[There are so many people at the table, but Yue Xin has no intention of helping others at all.]

[So what if you have the strength? You have no empathy at all. You’re selfish!]

[Yue Lingfeng, as her brother, why don’t you discipline Yue Xin properly? What’s the meaning of forming a family team for this show?]

[All in all, the brother and sister are so arrogant. They don’t care about others at all.]

Yue Xin silently pulled out two stools from under the table and asked for two sets of bowls and chopsticks from the butler. She gestured to Zhou Xue. The meaning was obvious. There were only two seats. She could discuss it herself.

The scene was silent for a while before Zhou Xue said, “Teacher Li Xing, it’s all thanks to you that the three of us were able to complete the mission this morning. You should eat more at noon to replenish your strength. I wonder what other missions you have in the afternoon.”

When Li Xing heard Zhou Xue’s words, he was very touched. “This, this is what I should do. The two children are still young. I’m just doing what I can.” These words were very obvious. After all, Yue Lingfeng had disappeared early in the morning.

Just as Li Xing was about to move toward the dishes, Yue Xin suddenly put down the chopsticks in her hand and walked in front of Zhao Lei and Zhou Rong. She grabbed one with each hand and dragged them to the dining table. She handed the bowls and chopsticks over before sitting back in her seat. After sitting down, she picked up a braised chicken drumstick and placed it in Han Wen’s bowl.

In that instant, everyone knew who was embarrassed, but no one said anything.

[Families, this is the three-story luxurious villa that I dug out for Li Xing with my toes. Please take a look at it. There’s a photo attached.]

Yue Xin gave the bowl and chopsticks to Zhou Rong and Zhao Lei, but the two of them didn’t seem to be happy, especially Zhou Rong. She kept turning back to look at Zhou Xue, hugging the bowl and chopsticks without moving. As for Zhao Lei, his expression was conflicted. It wasn’t good to eat, and he couldn’t bear not to eat.

Yue Xin couldn’t be bothered with what they were conflicted about. She ate happily and occasionally picked up some food for Han Wen. Coupled with Yue Lingfeng’s combat strength, the food on the table was disappearing at a visible speed.

Zhao Lei stared at the food in front of him. He bit his lip and suddenly said to Yue Xin, “Yue Xin, I owe you this meal. I’ll definitely return it to you in the future.” After saying that, as if he was afraid that Yue Xin would go back on her word, he reached out with his chopsticks and picked up a large piece of meat. He stuffed the meat into his mouth and quickly scooped rice into the rice bucket. Then, he wolfed it down. It could be seen that he was really hungry.

In fact, Yue Xin wasn’t angry at Zhao Lei’s attitude. After removing the filter on Lu Yu, she looked at herself from the perspective of a bystander. Yue Xin knew very well what kind of image she had in the eyes of the other students in school. She was Lu Yu’s bootlicker, an accessory to Lu Yu; she was the daughter of an ordinary family who gained benefits by currying favor with Lu Yu. In the past, Yue Xin had heard people say that her family was poor and had to curry favor with Lu Yu to get her living expenses. Of course, she knew that it was fake and wanted to argue, but Lu Yu stopped her.

At that time, Lu Yu had said, “Are you so unwilling to rely on me? Do you have to be so clear with me?”

These ambiguous words made Yue Xin give up on explaining. Later, Yue Xin knew that there were such rumors, but no one had said it in front of her, so she didn’t care. As time passed, the rumors became a publicly acknowledged fact.

After a while, Yue Xin won first place in the school’s music festival with her pipa. Some people began to approach her on purpose in the name of worship, but in fact, their goal was to get close to Lu Yu. Everyone treated her as an accessory to Lu Yu. Some even said that she had asked Lu Yu to use his family’s connections to win the award. Zhao Lei happened to be second place at that music festival and heard some rumors…

Therefore, Yue Xin understood why Zhao Lei had such an attitude toward her. She wasn’t the kind of person who would repay evil with kindness, but the prison lady had said that those who seemed to have malicious intentions towards you were either true to their nature, or they didn’t take you seriously at all. When they met someone true to their nature and showed them a little kindness, they would deny their past malice and submit to you. If you met someone who didn’t take you seriously, run quickly. It was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

Yue Xin judged that Zhao Lei was a genuine person, so she wanted to try the method her elder sister taught her to see if it was useful. Seeing was better than hearing. No matter how much theoretical knowledge she had in her mind, how could she not know if it was real or fake if she didn’t try? For this purpose, Yue Xin asked Zhao Lei to sit down and eat together. She wanted to see how Zhao Lei would repay her for the kindness of a meal.

As for Zhou Rong, after apologizing to Yue Xin, she still returned to Zhou Xue’s side. Then, Zhou Xue and Li Xing started to pretend to decline again.

Yue Xin didn’t want to listen at all. Seeing that Zhou Rong wasn’t eating, she simply put away the bowls and chopsticks and led the way to eat faster.

Yue Lingfeng saw that Yue Xin was eating even faster and did not stop her. He smiled even more happily and even urged Zhao Lei and Han Wen, “Hurry up and eat. Did you eat too much in the morning? Why don’t you look hungry?”

After Yue Lingfeng said that, both of them picked up their food faster.
