Qin Miaomiao, having been teased and toyed with by him, decided to give up and coldly sneered:
"Fine, I’ll stay! I’m not afraid. But, I can’t guarantee the safety of your sister. Oh, and your mom too. She dislikes me so much—if I’m wandering around in front of her every day, annoying her might actually be fun."
Lu Qing, upon hearing this, unexpectedly laughed:
"I was originally planning to just drop by and say hello. But since you’re so spirited, let’s stay for a few days."
"No, I surrender, okay?!"
"Surrender so quickly?"
Qin Miaomiao intentionally rested her face on his shoulder, shook his arm gently, and said in a rare coaxing tone:
"I’m just a delicate little woman, and surely you wouldn’t want to see me get into a fight with your mom and sister, would you? So, my dear Lord Lu, for the sake of family harmony, I think we should stay at your private apartment instead."
Lu Qing rather enjoyed her deliberate flattery and intimacy, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said in a calm voice: "I’d actually like to see how you battle against two."
"Fine. Since you want to watch the drama, I’ve got nothing else to say. After all, last time things nearly turned violent. Who knows what worse could happen later?"
"Alright, no more teasing. Let’s head back first and then talk."
When they arrived at the Lu Family estate, Lu Qing helped Qin Miaomiao out of the car. As soon as they entered the living room, Lu Lu’s keen eyes spotted the sapphire necklace hanging around Qin Miaomiao’s neck.
She couldn’t control herself and screamed:
"Brother, you actually let her wear Heidi’s Heart?"
"Call her sister-in-law."
He gave her a sidelong glance, and Lu Lu shivered. But upon seeing the necklace on Qin Miaomiao’s neck, she felt deeply uncomfortable and wished she could yank it off. She let out a snort:
"Brother, I’ve begged you several times to let me try it on, but you refused every time. How could you casually let her wear it?"
"It’s not just a try—it’s a gift."
When Lu Lu heard this, she became so agitated she nearly jumped up, shouting:
"What did you say? You’re giving Heidi’s Heart to her? This necklace is worth two hundred million! Brother, have you lost your mind, giving something so expensive to her?"
Lu Qing coldly glanced at her and said, "It seems you’ve truly been spoiled beyond measure. How do you plan to explain your sister-in-law falling down the stairs?"
Lu Lu immediately denied it: "What does that have to do with me? She didn’t stand properly—it wasn’t me who pushed her."
"That’s not what you said at the time."
Back then, she had adamantly claimed that Qin Miaomiao had pushed her, shifting all the blame onto her.
Seeing herself exposed, Lu Lu grew anxious and quickly said:
"Brother, ever since you married this woman, you don’t care about me anymore. I got hurt too, but all you care about is her. You even gave our family heirloom to that woman. Aren’t you afraid she’ll run off with your fortune? I’m your biological sister, yet you always side with outsiders. You’ve truly disappointed me."
As she spoke, she began to cry. Qin Miaomiao, standing off to the side, inwardly clicked her tongue. Now she decides to play the family card? Too bad she’s used the wrong approach.
Lu Qing, being such a sharp individual, had already seen through her lies. Moreover, pulling the family card on Lu Qing was pointless—it was clear that she only cared about the necklace’s exorbitant price. Just listening to the bitterness in her tone made it obvious: a childish girl is still a childish girl, unable to even bother hiding her thoughts.
Lu Qing’s gaze toward Lu Lu grew colder by the second. The once-beloved sister had become so uneducated, narrow-minded, and even resorted to physically injuring others—she had already crossed his bottom line.
"It seems you still don’t understand what proper manners are. It appears the Ladies’ Code School in the United Kingdom would suit you better."
"What? You’re sending me abroad? I’m not going! I would rather die than go!"
