Chapter 46 She is Lu Zhizhi


Chapter 46 She is Lu Zhizhi

Back garden, people I know...what does this girl want to do?

Although there was a high probability that it would not be a good thing, Ke Yue decided to take a look.

After all, in the Ke family, except for her father, no one can do anything to her for the time being.

Follow the corridor to the outside of the courtyard, walking on the cobblestone path.

There was only the last ray of setting sun left on the horizon, adding a touch of warmth to the cold garden.

At this time, most of the flowers have closed their petals, lowered their heads quietly, and fell asleep.

There was silence.

We passed a small fountain again, and the sound of water splashing was pleasant to our ears.

However, there seems to be something else mixed in with the sound of the fountain.

Is anyone crying?

There was a very weak sob, but it was still caught by Ke Yue.

The young man's eyes darkened, he carefully identified the direction of the sound, and walked over.

Gradually, the crying sound got closer and closer. The voice sounded like it belonged to a girl.

We walked around another rockery. This was already the deepest part of the courtyard, and almost no one would come here.

But where no one usually comes, a girl appears.

Even though it was just a silhouette, Ke Yue still recognized who she was.

……

Lu Zhizhi didn't like this kind of occasion very much.

Extravagant and gorgeous banquets, people’s fake smiles carefully packaged.

Although her status was noble, she only felt disgusted when faced with the flattery of those people.

But she was the daughter of the Lu family, so no matter how reluctant she was, she had to look dignified.

Yes, the children of the Lu family must always remember the family's teachings no matter where they are. They must maintain aristocratic qualities and not compromise the Lu family's face.

With the most false smile on her face that was praised as gentle and generous by others, she looked like a puppet under the crystal light.

This person is not Lu Zhizhi, she thought sadly.

The person who was chatting and laughing with you a second ago may turn around and say bad things about you to others. The person who smiles and clinks glasses with you on the surface may be hurting you behind the scenes, and may be helping you solve your troubles in a seemingly friendly manner. Man is actually the one causing trouble, he just wants to see your joke.

As the daughter of the Lu family, every move she makes will be magnified in the eyes of everyone. So Lu Zhizhi couldn't make a mistake. Everyone was waiting for her to make a mistake, then tear off her proud mask and crush it to pieces.

Be cautious and tread on thin ice.

But trouble still occurred.

When a waiter passed by her, he accidentally fell.

The goblet filled with red wine fell to the ground hard. She tried her best to avoid it, but the scarlet liquid still spilled on the corners of her skirt.

The originally moon-white dress was no longer clean, but now had a dazzling red color.

The movement attracted the attention of the people around, some were watching the excitement, some were surprised, and some were sarcastic.

Lu Zhizhi calmed down instead. She looked at this carefully staged farce, and no one could understand the sadness in her eyes.

The girl who was standing next to her asked with concern: "How are you doing? Is everything okay?"

If Lu Zhizhi saw it correctly, it was this girl who pushed the waiter without leaving any trace when he passed by.

Now he asked her if she was okay?

Look, what an ironic and ridiculous world.

She shook her head and wrote down the girl's name. From now on, the Lu family would never have any contact with that girl's family.

Now, it's time to deal with the trouble at hand. She knew very well that if this kind of matter was not handled well, it would become the talk of the upper class circles in the entire capital.

She was Lu Zhizhi, and she couldn't let the Lu family talk about it.

So her face was calm, but she frowned slightly, appropriately expressing her dissatisfaction without appearing too fussy.

She said to the panicked and apologetic waiter: "I understand that you accidentally fell down due to fatigue at work, and I don't care if you stained my skirt."

"However, I will tell Uncle Co truthfully what happened today and let him judge your dereliction of duty."

Advance and retreat in a moderate manner not only reflects his noble status, but is not too difficult for a servant, nor is he too tolerant to make himself easy to bully, and also saves face for the master: this is the Ke family, even if the servant makes a mistake, he will not be bullied. Only Ke Zhenen is eligible for punishment.

The people next to her instantly admired this relaxed young lady. Although her clothes were stained and her body was in a mess, they still couldn't hide her good upbringing.

The Lu family has a good daughter.

"I'm sorry for making you laugh." She smiled politely, "Please forgive me for not being able to accompany you for the time being."

Lu Zhizhi finally looked at her mother who was not far away. Her mother nodded towards her and she breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that her mother was very satisfied with what she had done.

She gently lifted up the hem of her skirt and gave her mother a standard curtsy that could not be faulted at all.

"Farewell."

……

After leaving the hall, she walked aimlessly to the back garden of Ke's house, finally leaving that suffocating place.

Although the waiter was used as a gunman, Lu Zhizhi would not sympathize with her.

The world is like this. If you are framed, you are framed. The law of the jungle applies not only to the animal world, but also to the entire human society.

If you don’t want to be bullied, you have to become strong enough.

If you have to sympathize with a waiter who is being bullied, then there are too many things in this world that you have to sympathize with.

Why bother yourself?

And she believed that the waiters in the Ke family would not be kind. Maybe after a while, the girl would get a glass of drugged red wine.

When the party starts, no one will be in the back garden. She sat casually on the stool in the pavilion, not caring that this action would wrinkle the dress she had carefully ironed.

Breathing in the unique fragrance of vegetation in the air, she closed her eyes.

She thought, this is Lu Zhizhi, the real Lu Zhizhi.

But the real Lu Zhizhi cannot stay here for too long.

She had to get rid of the wine stain on her dress as soon as possible and then show up at the party looking her best.

She sighed and left here reluctantly.

There seems to be a girl not far away. Judging from her dress, is she also here to attend the banquet?

Lu Zhizhi was thinking as she walked forward quickly. She tried her best to look as dignified as possible and asked politely and gracefully:

"Excuse me, is there a restroom nearby? My skirt was accidentally stained and I can't attend the party. I need to wash off the red wine stain."

The girl seemed a little surprised when she saw her. She just held the rabbit doll and looked at herself curiously.

For some reason, Lu Zhizhi was a little frightened by the girl's eyes.

Seeing that the girl didn't speak, she thought she had scared the other person. She smiled apologetically and was about to explain her identity when the girl spoke.

She suddenly laughed, innocently and harmlessly: "Sister, go over there~"

She raised the doll and pointed the way to Lu Zhizhi with the rabbit's ears.

When Lu Zhizhi saw the girl smiling so cutely, she felt her heart melt. "Thank you!" She also smiled and waved goodbye to the girl.

The girl looked at her leaving figure and chuckled.

"Sister, I only said that direction, but I didn't say that was the direction of the bathroom~"

My brother doesn’t like children who lie, so I won’t lie, but you still made a mistake in your judgment.

You can't blame me.

……

Lu Zhizhi walked in the direction pointed by the girl. He had to say that the Ke family's garden was really beautifully decorated.

Under the setting sun, the cobblestone path shimmered and turned golden, with white onion orchids blooming on the roadside.

But, is this garden too big?

I have been walking for so long and I still haven’t found the bathroom.

She rubbed her already sore ankle, and there were two forks in the road ahead.

I can't go any further, maybe I'm looking in the wrong direction.

She thought for a while and decided to go back.

But what she didn't expect was that the Ke family's garden was intricate, and there were trees and corridors blocking her view everywhere. She was unfamiliar with the terrain here, and she couldn't find her way back.

The Ke family's villa is open-plan, with only half of the front hall built with a fence, and the back garden directly connected to a small forest.

Perhaps, without realizing it, he had left the confines of the villa.

It took her three seconds to finally realize the fact that she was lost.

Wait...that girl didn't tell me that this was the way to the bathroom!

Lu Zhizhi squatted down in annoyance. He was so confused by the girl's innocent appearance that he didn't notice the loopholes in her words.

She shouldn't trust anyone.

Just when she thought she could let go of her guard against others, reality taught her another hard lesson.

I am really, useless...

She wrapped her arms around her body, buried her head in her knees, and finally couldn't help crying.

Yes, no matter how strong or flawless he pretends to be, Lu Zhizhi is still a little girl.

Lu Zhizhi will also be sad, sad, and lonely.

She was suddenly a little glad that she was lost. In this place where there was no one, she could turn back into the fragile Lu Zhizhi and cry.

But after all, she was well-educated. Even if she cried, she was not too presumptuous. She just shrugged her shoulders slightly and sobbed softly.

She was so immersed in crying that she was so serious that she didn't notice anyone approaching gently.

Looking at the white handkerchief that suddenly appeared in front of her, she was a little confused.

"Why, you are crying so sadly." The man said softly, seeming helpless.

Looking up, he saw a white-haired boy.

"Lu Zhizhi, why are you crying?"

Does he know me?

With her eyes blurred by tears, she couldn't see clearly the boy's face, but she felt that the pair of peach blossom eyes and the tear stain looked extremely familiar.

"Are you..." she asked blankly.

The boy seemed not to have expected the girl's reaction. There were still wet marks on Lu Zhizhi's face. Because he had just cried, his eyelashes were shiny and the ends of his eyes were a little red.

The tears did not diminish her beauty in any way, but her tearful and sad eyes made her even more pitiful.

Pear blossoms bring rain, that's all, right?

Seeing that she was still stunned with tears in her eyes, I couldn't help but feel a little funny, so I had to stretch out my hand and use a handkerchief to gently wipe away the tears still hanging on her eyelashes.

The vision became clearer little by little.

"You don't remember me so soon?" The young man looked at her lightly with a smile on his face.

Lu Zhizhi finally saw clearly the appearance of the person in front of him.

"Shen...yue!"

For a time, all the grievances, sadness, anger, loneliness in my heart... all came out at the moment I saw the boy.

It is said that girls cannot hide their emotions in front of the boy they like. Even someone as gentle as Lu Zhizhi cannot escape this saying.

She threw herself directly into the boy's arms, and finally cried wildly.

Ke Yue was originally squatting in front of Lu Zhizhi. With her pounce, she almost brought the young man down.

After finally regaining her balance, she looked down at the girl crying in the crook of her neck, feeling a little headache.

"Why are you crying again..." She could only comfort her softly.

Maybe after seeing someone familiar, Lu Zhizhi no longer suppressed her emotions, but felt her heart was sour as never before. She was almost speechless and could only cry to vent all the grievances she felt today.

Now it's better, it has completely become a "pear blossom rainstorm".

Tears fell from her face, soaking the boy's clothes.

Ke Mo sighed deeply, raised his hand and gently stroked her hair.

"It's okay..."

With me here, you can cry with confidence.

The little angel Lu Zhizhi appears for the first time, spreading flowers~

The atmosphere suddenly became lily (×)

Lin Chen (holding a knife): Author, your idea is a bit dangerous...

Little Ida:...I can’t afford to offend the boss.
