After Zhu Hui sat back down, she quietly continued to consume the drinks.
Zhao Ying glanced at the cups on the table, and then at Lù Yue’an.
“What’s wrong with you? What kind of friend is this? Why haven’t I heard you mention her before?”
Lù Yue’an smiled awkwardly and said softly, “We’re just classmates. We used to be in the same school.’
She spoke softly, but Zhu Hui still heard her. Her hands that were holding a cup froze for a moment. Her eyes fixed on the milk tea in her cup, and she did not dare to look up at Lù Yue’an.
Lù Yue’an also did not turn around to look at her.
Zhao Ying suddenly smiled. “Oh, so she’s just a classmate. I say, how can she be worthy of being friends with you? Look at her outfit, it’s so old-fashioned and shabby. How can you endure it? I could even smell her from far away. Why are you being so kind? You’d even stay with a classmate who just wanted to curry favor with you. Next time, just have someone chase her away.”
Word by word, she struck at Zhu Hui’s heart, smashing her self-esteem into the ground.
She sat there with a pale face, and her hands could not stop shaking. Her ears were filled with Zhao Yings voice, followed by silence.
She really hoped that Lù Yue’an could refute her, or even simply said, ‘She’s my friend.’
But, no, Lù Yue’an did not say anything. She only went silent for a while before changing the topic.
“What do you want to get this time? Let me treat you.”
Zhao Ying immediately smiled and waved her hand. “No need, I just came in to say hello. I still have other things to attend to, I ordered a bag before and it’s arrived today. so I’ll go and take a look. By the way. do you want to come along?”
Zhao Ying invited her warmly.
Only then did Lù Yue’an turn around to look at Zhu Hui.
Before she could say anything, Zhao Ying pulled her out.
“What are you looking at? She’s just a destitute classmate. What’s wrong with letting her wait for a while? Let’s go, let’s go. Come with me to take a look.”
She pulled Lù Yue’an out the door. Zhu Hui sat where she was, while the bodyguards followed.
It was as if Zhu Hui was the only one left in this world.
Zhu Hui’s fingers were pale from clenching the cup, and her face was frighteningly pale.
Those words replayed in her mind over and over again, and she could not get them out of her mind.
Zhu Hui’s eyes were red, and tears dripped into the cup.
Inferiority and humiliation filled her heart with discomfort.
When Lù Yue’an agreed to come out, she thought that they had not changed and could still be the same as before.
But in fact, everything had been different since Lù Yue’an became the eldest daughter of the Lù family.
She was the daughter of a rich family, and she was just a destitute classmate.
What reason did she have to get her protection?
Zhu Hui pursed her lips tightly to stop herself from crying.
She stood up abruptly, wanting to leave.
But when she reached the door, she was stopped.
“Miss, the bill hasn’t been paid yet.”
She held back a sudden surge of anger and walked over.
“How much is it?”
The attendant showed her the long list.
She glanced at the final amount and gritted her teeth in silence.
She did not have that much money.
She turned around in a panic and returned to her seat.
She was afraid that the waiter would see how fragile she was, and she was also afraid that she would not be able to hold back her tears.
She raised her hand to wipe the tears off her face. Pinching the corner of her shirt, she sat there uneasily, waiting for Lù Yue’an to return.
She had no money, and she was the only one here. If she did not pay, she could not leave.. So, she could only leave after I-R.I Yue’an came back to settle
the bill…
