Lu Qi looked at Yu Yang coldly. “It’s fine if you want to confess, but why did you choose to do so at my birthday party?”

Before Yu Yang could say anything, at the next second-

Slap!

Lu Nuannuan swung her arm and gave Lu Qi a loud slap. She said with hatred in her almond-shaped eyes, “Are you crazy? Why did you hit Yu Yang?!”

Lu Qi staggered a little and she could only stand after supporting herself by holding onto the dining table.

Xie Jiao was so worried that she wanted to support her. “Qiqi…”

Lu Qi glared at Lu Nuannuan and whispered to Xie Jiao, “I can handle it!”

Lu Qi walked to Lu Nuannuan’s back with sonorous steps. She tugged at Lu Nuannuan’s hair and pulled downwards!

“Ah!” Lu Nuannuan screamed and struggled.

Lu Qi tugged at the ends of Lu Nuannuan’s hair in anger and slapped her arrogant face twice.

A crisp and clear sound echoed in the living room.

“Today is my birthday party. Whether you want to show off your love or cause trouble, get the hell out here!”

Lu Nuannuan’s face was branded with a clear hand mark which stung painfully. She screamed, “Lu Qi, you b*tch, you’re just jealous of me!”

Lu Qi sneered, “Jealous of you? Do you think I’ll be jealous of you just because you charmed Yu Yang with your ability to play with men and made him break off the engagement in public?”

“Let me tell you, men like Yu Yang are everywhere. I can’t be bothered to compete with you! But you’re just a mere daughter of the second family so how dare you actually climb over my head and behave atrociously. Since you don’t care about the Lu family’s reputation, I’ll grant your wish!”

Lu Qi’s voice was cold. Although her voice was not loud, it was enough for everyone to hear clearly.

The surrounding onlookers had different expressions, but most of them were disdainful and disgusted at Lu Nuannuan snatching Lu Qi’s fiancé.

Lu Wei felt everyone pointing at and talking about him so he wanted to come forward and persuade, “Lu Qi, you’re sisters… How can you treat Nuannuan like this?!”

Lu Qi raised his eyes and looked at him. The corners of her lips curled up into a sarcastic smile as he asked, “Uncle, when Lu Nuannuan hit me, you seemed to be quite happy watching everything unfold! So aren’t you being hypocritical for reacting like this now that your daughter is being bullied?”

Lu Han felt sorry for his daughter, and his face turned ugly. He directly ordered the housekeeper to send the guests away.

“Lu Wei! Come with me to the study!”

Lu Han called Lu Wei away, and Xie Jiao wanted to take Lu Qi back to her room to rest.

Lu Qi shook her head and forced a smile to comfort Xie Jiao. “Mom, I was a bit impulsive and caused trouble for you and dad.”

Xie Jiao held Lu Qi in her arms with tears in her eyes. She patted her shoulder and said softly, “You had to suffer because we were too lenient! You did a good job. We should learn from you!”

Her embrace was very warm, making Lu Qi close her eyes and feel at ease, which was something she hadn’t felt for a long time.

–

It was getting late. Lu Qi comforted Xie Jiao and planned to go for a walk in the garden.

However, as soon as she stepped into the garden, she saw a familiar figure hurriedly walking in.

Lu Qi frowned and followed her quietly as she hid behind a tree and peeked.

Xie Jiao liked flowers and plants, so Lu Han fixed up the garden and planted different kinds of flowers and plants. Lu Qi pushed aside the half-meter tall plants and poked her head out slightly. She saw Lu Nuannuan and her maid gathered together.

Lu Nuannuan covered her swollen face with an ice cube, and her dark eyes were filled with intense hatred.

The maid stood in front of her, trembling slightly. She wanted to explain about the dress, but Lu Nuannuan didn’t want to hear it anymore.

“Lu Qi has been against me lately. The fact that she slapped my face in public today means that she can trample all over me tomorrow!”

Lu Nuannuan imagined what might happen in the future. She silently clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white as if she was thinking of some bad idea.

Lu Qi’s eyes darted around. She took out her phone and zoomed in on Lu Nuannuan, wanting to leave behind evidence through the video recording.

“I don’t care. You have to think of a way to kill Lu Qi!”

Lu Nuannuan squeezed the words out of her mouth.

The maid shook her head in shock. She took two steps back and said, “Ms. Nuannuan, it’s illegal to kill people!”

“Don’t worry. After this is done, I’ll give you a sum of money and send you overseas safely!”

Lu Nuannuan’s eyes flashed with hatred. “As long as I can make Lu Qi disappear from this world, I’m willing to pay any price!”

Lu Qi stared at the screen and raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Kill her?

She didn’t expect that two slaps would trigger Lu Nuannuan’s killing intent.

Her mentality was too weak!

Lu Qi wanted to put her phone away, but her weak body couldn’t support her stiff posture for a long time. She slipped and her body hit the tree unsteadily, almost exposing her whereabouts. Fortunately, a pair of strong arms scooped her up and hugged her directly.

“It’s you? !”
