Lu Jingzhi, however, did not seem tired as he stood on the other side looking at Lin Ci.
Lin Ci: “What kind of ridiculous physical stats does your family have…?
Lu Ning turned around and looked at her. “Want some water?”
Lin Ci nodded and sat down. “Yes! Please!”
Then, she leaned on Lu Ning’s shoulder.
Lu Ning smiled and poured her a glass of water.
Lu Jingzhi sat over and pouted when he saw Lin Ci.
He also leaned against Lu Ning.
Lu Ning raised a hand to caress his face, and he was instantly satisfied.
Give me a rub too.”
Lu Ning smiled haplessly and rubbed Lin Ci’s face.
The two of them were like concubines fighting for the emperor’s favor. Lin Ci toyed with Lu Ning’s clothes in boredom. The more she touched them, the more she felt that they were not bad.
“Where did you buy these clothes? Bring me there some time.”
Lu Ning peered down subconsciously. “I don’t know either, my mom bought it for me. There’s no brand) so I don’t know where it’s from.”
Lin Ci said, “The material is quite comfortable. It shouldn’t be some random brand, right? You have more of the same in your closet? I’ll go take a look.”
“I don’t have the exact same, but the materials are all similar. They should be from the same store.”
Lin Ci immediately stood up and walked towards Lu Ning’s bedroom. She opened her closet and felt the rest of the clothes.
Then, she took out her phone and started taking photos, trying her best to capture the details.
If it was a designer brand, even if there was no brand logo one could tell who designed it was from the details.
Lu Jingzhi watched as Lu Ning picked up the camera and placed it in her pocket. He pursed his lips and hesitated.
Lu Ning turned around and looked at him. “What’s wrong, Jingzhi?”
Lu Jingzhi was silent for two seconds before he shook his head. “It’s nothing.”
Lin Ci rushed out of the bedroom with a dress in her hand. “Ning’ning! Can I try this?”
Lu Ning stood up and looked at her. “Sure. That one even has an accessory, I’ll get it for you.”
As she spoke, she followed Lin Ci back to her bedroom. Lu Jingzhi sat on the sofa with a hesitant expression.
At the Zhao residence.
Zhao Lingling knelt by the sofa, a cane whipping her body endlessly.
“You’ve really disgraced our family! I didn’t pay for your school fees so that you can do something like that!”
Zhao Lingling’s body trembled from the caning, and tears kept flowing out. She bit her lips and did not dare to utter a sound; only a few whimpers escaped her lips.
“Did you lack to eat or wear?! Why did you steal someone else’s things?! What was it that you wanted which I didn’t give you?! Why did you do such a thing?! How am I going to face people in the future!? People will gossip about me having a thief as a daughter!”
When the people around them heard this, they turned their heads away and did not dare to look. Zhao Lingling’s mother could not bear to see this, but she did not dare to stop him, afraid that he would get even angrier if she interfered and would only hit her harder.
Zhao Lingling clenched her fists. Her face was pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
“Master…”
“Shut up! No one is allowed to plead for mercy!’
Zhao Lingling endured it without saying a word.
Mother Zhao could not stand it anymore and cried, “Lingling, tell your father what’s going on. I don’t believe you would do such a thing! Please say something!’
Zhao Lingling knelt there and kept trembling. Father Zhao looked at her, as if he wanted to hear what she had to say.
Zhao Lingling finally said, “So what if I tell you? You won’t believe me.”
She forced herself to say this as tears rolled down her face.
“If you tell us the whole truth, why won’t we believe you?!”
