Chapter 369: Big-boobed Birdbrain

“How much for a night, Miss?”

Zhu Meina quickly stood up and yanked her dress down, her face in turns black and red. She reeked of alcohol, but it seemed like she was very drunk. She still knew shame, as well as how to glare.

By that time, Lu Yi was far gone. Zhu Meina grounded her teeth. She had tried every method there was, but Lu Yi just didn’t bite the bait. What else can she do? It’s not as if she could just strip and throw herself into him.

She tightened her hands at the side of her body, tugging her dress down lest that the nasty men took advantage of her.

Lu Yi walked on. His missus’s birthday was coming, and he planned to buy her a gift, but he didn’t know what to buy. He had been pondering for days to no avail.

As he was deep in thought, someone reached out from behind him. Narrowing his eyes, he intuitively caught the hand and did an overhead throw on the attacker.

“Ah…!” wailed a woman.

Lu Yi dusted his shoulders, his icy eyes fixed on the woman sprawled across the ground. The tight fabric on the woman ripped apart when she tried to stand, baring half of her ass.

Annoyed, Lu Yi pursed his lips.

He took out his phone and made a call. “Qingyi, I have subdued a stalker that has been tailing me lately. I don’t know who’s behind this, but I want answers. I’ll leave the interrogation to you.”

He hung up and stood still, staring at the woman who was too scared to move.

She had been following him for a few days now. He had given her ample chances, but there was a limit to his patience. In this world, not many people can get away scot-free after incurring his wrath. Did he look so easy going that anyone dared to pounce onto him?

Before long, a few police cars arrived, from which came swat police officers who took Zhu Meina away by force. Her protests were reduced to muffled ramblings after they stuck a tape across her lips.

Who was Lu Yi? The Inspector of Sea City. Anyone who dared to follow him either had something to do with terrorists or had a death wish.

Getting out of the interrogation wouldn’t be an easy task for Zhu Meina.

Lu Yi never had a soft spot for women. He always gave women what they asked for simply because he didn’t care. However, if anyone dared to provoke him, he would consider them his enemy, regardless of gender. Times like this revealed that he wasn’t an easygoing guy. He had always had that callous side to him.

He went to a large shopping mall in search of a gift for Yan Huan, but he was still at a loss of what to buy. His missus was serving at the moment, so accessories were out of the question. In the end, he decided on a cake. Of course, he also bought a bracelet to give her in the future.

As for Zhu Meina, he had already forgotten about her existence.

In the police station, Zhu Meina was taken to be an international suspect and was locked up for a few days. After that, they treated her like a threat and investigated her antecedents thoroughly. In the end, the Su Family had to come down to explain the misunderstanding. This got the Su Family into a lot of trouble since it concerned politics. Zhu Meina had really dragged them down for her folly.

Zhu Meina spent the next few days in prison, eating jail food and undergoing all sorts of interrogations, during which she had wet herself a number of times. She could care nothing about appearances or whatsoever when her life was at stake.

“Have you lost your wits?”

Zhu Xianglan prodded Zhu Meina’s head. “Where did all that education go to? Is there anything in this hollow shell of yours?”

How dare you tail someone like Lu Yi? You deserved to be locked up! I don’t give a damn about your worthless life, but don’t drag me down with you!

Zhu Xianglan’s rage swelled as she went on. Her niece was honestly beyond hope. Where was her brain? She should have known better who she could provoke and who she couldn’t.

“I like him, Auntie,” said Zhu Meina stupidly. She still liked him deep down. She felt that there was nothing wrong with liking someone. However, she clearly used the wrong methods.

“Like?” Zhu Xianglan sneered. “You really do forget your status sometimes. You are people from two different worlds. What makes you think someone like you can make a match of a member of the Lu Family?” And that woman’s son, no less. She wanted nothing to do with Ye Shuyun, much less a familial tie. Not over her dead body.

“Auntie, I’m sure I could move him with my love.”

Before she could finish her sentence, Zhu Xianglan had backhanded her across the face, hoping to slap some sense into her.

“Zhu Meina, this is your last warning. If I hear Lu Yi’s name from your lips once more, I’ll send you scramming back to the Zhu Family.”

Zhu Meina covered her face, stunned.

“But why, Auntie?”

She didn’t get it. Wouldn’t it be a good thing if she really ended up together with Lu Yi? Wouldn’t it benefit everyone if the Su Family and Lu Family conciliated through marriage?

“Don’t ask me why!” Zhu Xianglan withdrew her hand. “You have embarrassed me enough. I want you grounded. If you take a step out of this house, don’t call me heartless when I send you off scramming to your own home.”

The harsh words were like a blade to her heart.

Zhu Xianglan was the benefactor of the Zhu Family, but the humiliation wounded Zhu Meina like never before.

She was a big-boobed birdbrain, but she wasn’t a fool. She had her own pride. She wasn’t a log without feelings.

She turned and saw Su Muran sneering at her from the sofa. Her heart ached, as though someone had squeezed it. Her face burned so fiercely that she dared not touch it.

That planted a seed into her heart, a seed that fed on her indignance and hatred.

A seed that might eventually grow into a huge tree.

Zhu Meina’s incident was a humiliation to the Su Family—especially since they had to extricate her in person. On the other hand, Lu Yi didn’t know who Zhu Meina was until this day.

During Yan Huan’s eight months in the army, Lu Yi had dropped by every weekend, bringing her many supplies like a model husband. His weekly visits never stopped, rain or shine.
