Initially, there was nothing wrong with what she said, but after being reprimanded by Wu Ju, people would think that she was very selfish.
Lu Qiuran was extremely aggrieved with tears in her eyes, hoping to salvage the situation with her pitiful and innocent image.
However, Wu Ju did not give her a chance. Instead, he said coldly, “I’ve said it many times. Put away the thoughts you shouldn’t have. Back then, I hoped that you could study more because 1 hoped that knowledge could change you. However, you chose something else. 1 didn’t force you. No matter how bad you are, I still hope that you can become good.”
Lu Qiuran’s face turned pale. She did not expect Wu Ju to say such a thing at a time like this.
Wasn’t he telling the fans in the live-stream that he looked down on her from the bottom of his heart and felt that she was up to no good?
If it were two days ago, the netizens might have scolded him.
However, now, many things were out of Lu Qiuran’s control. The public opinion could change at any time. Initially, she did not tell Lu Qingjin that this was a live broadcast because she hoped that he would be strict with her. However, that kind of strictness would make him hated by everyone.
Lu Qiuran cried, still aggrieved.
Wu Ju frowned. “Think about it yourself.”
Lu Qiuran wiped her tears and nodded. “Father, don’t be angry. 1 know I was wrong.”
This was a live broadcast. No matter what, even if she was being unreasonable, she had to be the weaker party. Only then would the fans stand up for her.
Some people liked her, and some people hated her. Under the protection of the fans who liked her, she would slowly turn those who did not like her into the ones she liked.
Looking at Lu Qiuran’s pitiful appearance, the fans couldn’t bear to see her like this.
As good friends, Mu Xue and the others naturally had to comfort Lu Qiuran.
Wu Ju stood up and said, “I’m going to plow the land. Make your own arrangements.”
Jiang Tongtong mustered her courage. “Master Lu, do you need help?”
Wu Ju turned around and left. He said calmly, “Come with me.”
Jiang Tongtong heaved a sigh of relief. She was really embarrassed. In the beginning, she liked Lu Qiuran. After all, she was her parents’ biological daughter. It was a good thing that she was back.
However, ever since Lu Qiuran ostracized her and even snatched her boyfriend away, Jiang Tongtong only wanted to stay away from her. She felt that Lu Qiuran was hostile to her.
Jiang Tong did not care that her boyfriend, Qin Hao, had a change of heart. After Qin Hao and Lu Qiuran got together, she was actually relieved. However, Lu Qiuran was targeting her, making her very helpless and panicked. She did not know what to do.
Carrying the basket on her back, Jiang Tongtong followed Wu Ju. The corners of her lips curled up into a smile. She felt so at ease.
Wu Ju walked at the front with Jiang Tongtong behind him. Zhang Pan carried the camera and followed. There were thousands of people watching here now.
Wu Ju said, “Do you know why 1 was so angry just now?”
Jiang Tongtong shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Wu Ju’s tone softened. “Perhaps the path she took is difficult, but if she loses her original intention, she won’t be happy anymore.”
Jiang Tongtong felt a lump in her throat. “Perhaps there’s nothing else she can do.”
Wu Ju sneered in his heart and said calmly, “Lu Qiuran’s results in high school were outstanding. She just valued fame and fortune too much. I can’t change her. However, no matter what choice she makes, as long as she doesn’t harm others, I will respect her choice. No matter what, don’t go against your conscience.”
However, how could she not listen? She liked to draw, but her adoptive parents wanted her to play the piano and become a dazzling pianist. Only such a woman could be worthy of being born into a rich family. Only then could she marry well and bring them rich benefits.
When they arrived at the field, Wu Ju said to Jiang Tongtong, “Scatter the seeds while I plow the land. In a month or so, you’ll be able to eat tender vegetables.”
Jiang Tongtong smiled and nodded. “Okay, Master Lu.”
Zhang Pan felt a little embarrassed not helping them, but his job was to film.
It was a little boring, but he did not feel bored. Instead, he felt warm.
When Wu Ju and Jiang Tongtong returned after planting the vegetable seeds, Lu Qiuran had already composed herself and made lunch with Mu Xue.
They finished their lunch in silence.
Lu Qiuran no longer looked aggrieved. She smiled sweetly and asked, “Father, what are we going to do in the afternoon?”
Wu Ju’s expression was naturally calm. “Continue learning the body-tempering technique.”
Mu Xue and the others had also adjusted their moods. They looked at each other. Mu Xue looked at Wu Ju and asked playfully, “Master Lu, tell us the truth. Are we not in good health so that you want us to exercise?”
Wang Zixiao also said, “Master Lu, just give us acupuncture. We can endure it..”
