Chapter 743 Childhood Sweetheart Marries Her Brother in Revenge, Then Regrets It (21)

Before dawn, everyone had already gotten up.

They surrounded Lu Ting's wooden house.

Mu Zhou leaned against the door frame, quietly yawned, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

The sea breeze is a bit cool when the sun isn't out.

Mu Zhou subconsciously crossed her arms over her chest. When Lu Chen saw this, he took out a thin gauze scarf and wrapped it around her shoulders.

A gentle warmth instantly washed over me.

Mu Zhou looked up at the considerate man.

Her eyes flickered, and she tiptoed slightly, unexpectedly kissing his chin.

Lu Chen's pupils contracted instantly, and he lowered his eyes to look at Mu Zhou.

At this moment, she had already turned her gaze away and looked back at the two people inside the room.

It seems like nothing happened.

Lu Chen's lips slowly curved into a smile. He pushed up his glasses and then silently took her hand.

She didn't struggle.

Everyone else was focused on Lu Ting and Jiang Wanqing and didn't see what had just happened.

Apart from Lu Ting.

He stared straight in Mu Zhou's direction, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Jiang Wanqing, her eyes brimming with tears, couldn't help but speak when she saw Lu Ting still ignoring her at this point:

"do you remember……"

Jiang Wanqing's family wasn't well-off, and she started working to earn money from a young age.

The year she finished the college entrance exam, she went to work in a restaurant in the city with an aunt from her village.

The hotel was much more luxurious than she had imagined, and even more opulent than any of the high-end hotels she had seen on television.

Originally, she was just cleaning in the kitchen.

There was a banquet that time, and halfway through, some guests were arguing in the banquet hall, and wine was spilled on the carpet. The head waitress asked her and another girl to help clean it up.

To everyone's surprise, the argument hadn't ended when she arrived, so she and her colleagues quietly started cleaning.

The banquet hall was filled with the clinking of glasses, and every guest was dressed to the nines. The men were impeccably dressed in suits and ties, while the women were adorned with jewels and dazzling with glamour.

Jiang Wanqing almost had her eyes glazed over. She felt envious and dreamed that one day she could become one of them.

The two people arguing were a man and a woman. The man in the suit, who was losing the argument, was already in a bad mood when the woman ignored him and walked away. When he saw a cleaning girl looking around aimlessly, he took out all his anger on her.

The man in the suit started swearing at her, saying many nasty things, and even threatened the manager that he would fire her.

Jiang Wanqing instantly lost all other thoughts and felt only fear.

She was satisfied with the salary of this job, and it wasn't tiring; she didn't want to lose it.

But her apology only brought more humiliation from the man.

Those who were dressed up around them just glanced at them from afar, and no one was willing to step forward and help.

They were in a corner, like another world, and no one would pay attention to them.

They were all hypocritical people, and Jiang Wanqing's beautiful illusions were instantly shattered.

At that moment, the man in the suit noticed a necklace that Jiang Wanqing was wearing around her neck.

Because of her movement, it just happened to slip out.

It's a knock-off of a certain brand's necklace.

The man in the suit looked at it and spoke with disdain:

"You're just a waitress, how can you afford luxury goods? You didn't come here to work just to find a rich husband, did you?"

He naturally assumed that this was a gift Jiang Wanqing had received from a man.

Only then did he notice Jiang Wanqing's delicate and charming face, which had a kind of youthful beauty.

Taking advantage of his drunkenness and anger at being rejected by the girl earlier, he reached out and tried to tear off her necklace.

"Throw this one away, and I'll buy you ten!"

Jiang Wanqing was startled and quickly explained that it was a fake.

But the man in the suit only wanted to take advantage of the situation and didn't care about any of that.

He grabbed her collar and started to tug, saying he was taking off her necklace, but actually he wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Jiang Wanqing naturally realized this.

The manager stood by helplessly, not daring to stop it, and the other two colleagues could only watch.

Jiang Wanqing felt extremely humiliated.

She was forced to kneel on the ground and couldn't get up. Just when she was in despair, several people suddenly walked over.

The arrogant man in the suit suddenly stopped and put on a fawning expression.

Jiang Wanqing couldn't help but look over.

Standing at the very front of that group of people was a man wearing a white shirt.

That was the most beautiful person Jiang Wanqing had ever seen.

His eyes and brows were cold and aloof, making him seem unapproachable, yet his exquisite features always made people want to be drawn to him like moths to a flame.

The shirt cuffs were slightly bent, creating subtle wrinkles, yet the luxurious smoothness of the fabric remained undeniable.

His nobility did not make people feel disgusted.

He seems like a prince born to be.

And he didn't look that old, maybe only a year or two older than her?

But the man in his thirties, dressed in a suit, treated him with utmost respect.

His brows furrowed with annoyance as he coldly stared at the man in the suit:

"Mr. Qin, are you getting angry here because you're dissatisfied with the banquet?"

The man in the suit dared not admit any dissatisfaction with the banquet and quickly said it was a misunderstanding.

The boy ignored his explanation and ordered the security guards to drag the man away, instructing that the man in the suit should never appear in any of the places where he was present.

The man in the suit's wails woke Jiang Wanqing.

Suddenly, her nose stung, and all the grievances in her heart welled up.

After straightening her collar, she couldn't help but look at the boy.

She heard the man in the suit address him.

Young Master Lu.

She also heard a lot of gossip in the kitchen.

Young Master Lu is the youngest son of the Lu family and the grandson of the host of this banquet.

She thought that these high and mighty people didn't care about them, but she didn't expect that there were exceptions.

Back in the kitchen, Jiang Wanqing couldn't calm down.

After learning what had happened in the banquet hall, everyone comforted her and praised her for her good luck.

"I heard that the young master of the Lu family has a cold temper and doesn't like to talk to people easily. He's too lazy to meddle in other people's business. I didn't expect him to stand up for you."

"Yes, I've heard that too. The young master of the Lu family is so aloof that no girl dares to get close to him. Yet he's so kind."

"The man who bullied you is surnamed Qin. He's incredibly promiscuous. He's the only son in his family, and he spoils him rotten. Only Young Master Lu dared to teach him a lesson."

Everyone's words stirred up some subtle thoughts in Jiang Wanqing.

Why would the young master of the Lu family help her and get her out of trouble?

As the banquet was drawing to a close, she couldn't resist sneaking outside the banquet hall, hoping to try her luck and see if she could meet her benefactor.

She was so frightened that she didn't even have a chance to say thank you.

Unexpectedly, they were so destined to meet. She had just come out when she saw Lu Ting and his three friends coming out together.

A boy said to Lu Tingdao:

"Lu Ting, can you be a little nicer to girls? Didn't you see that Miss Lin, who just tried to talk to you but was rejected, is almost crying?"

Another person also said:

"Exactly, no wonder you're single, you really don't know how to be chivalrous to women."

"By the way, Qin Yan was being a scoundrel today, trying to take advantage of someone. Did you notice that girl? She's quite fair-skinned and pretty, but she was on the verge of tears, looking so pitiful."

His friend nudged Lu Ting with his elbow and winked:

"Hey, I'm telling you, you didn't just fall for her and that's why you came to her rescue, did you?"
