Chapter 4: The Ugly Duckling Turns into a Swan

Uncle Bai stepped forward and gently helped Wen Sining up. "You're the young mistress of the Lu family now. No one will dare to bully you from now on."

Wen Sining wiped away her tears and pouted her small mouth. "That meanie just bullied me."

Uncle Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He continued to comfort her softly, "From now on, the old master will stand up for you. The young master won't bully you anymore."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

During breakfast, the old master showed her special care and didn't mention his own grandson, Lu Luochen, at all.

Uncle Bai was a bit worried and said, "The young master rushed out in his car this morning. I'm afraid something might happen to him."

This worry was not unfounded. Sure enough, more than an hour later, a call came in. Lu Luochen had crashed his car into a railing. Fortunately, he was okay, just with some minor injuries.

The old master sent someone to forcefully bring him back.

Blood was still oozing from Lu Luochen's forehead, but he didn't seem to care at all. He just stared coldly at the old master.

"I've done everything you wanted. What else do you want?"

The old master slapped the table and stood up, raising his voice by more than eight octaves.

"Just for a little star, you talk to your grandpa like this? Don't forget, everything you have now is given by the Lu family!"

"I only want her!"

The auras of the two were equally intimidating. Wen Sining gasped in shock and silently shrank back on the chair.

The old master of the Lu family turned his head and saw her panicked expression. He softened his tone.

"What are you shouting for? You've scared Sining."

Even Uncle Bai, who was standing beside them, was caught off guard by the old master's sudden change of attitude. He had never seen the old master treasure anyone like this before.

But now, he was actually doting on a... simple and honest woman?

"You're injured. Stay at home and accompany Sining for the next few days. Don't go anywhere."

"If you dare to step out of this door, just wait to collect my corpse."

Although Lu Luochen was extremely angry, he was still worried about the old master's health. He shut his mouth with a cold face.

Wen Sining swallowed hard. She wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere. Looking at the old master of the Lu family, she whispered,

"Grandpa, I want to go back to my natal family alone... to visit my uncle and aunt."

Staying with this cold - faced guy was no better than going back to the Wen family and dealing with those fools. She could hide for one day at a time.

"If you were half as well - behaved as Sining, I could die in peace!"

Wen Sining smiled guiltily. From beginning to end, she didn't dare to look at Lu Luochen, fearing that the man had already torn her to pieces in his heart.

The old master asked Uncle Bai to prepare a lot of precious tonics for her to take back to the Wen family.

Lu Luochen stood on the balcony and watched coldly as Wen Sining got into the car. Then he dialed a phone number.

"Check this Wen Sining thoroughly for me."

"Understood!"

When Wen Sining returned to the Wen family this time, she was extremely glamorous.

Wen Shiqian and Jiang Ruanqing looked at her as if she were a money - tree. They showed great concern for her, to the extent that they were almost about to feed her. Maybe they never expected that the Lu family would dote on an ugly fool like this.

However, this also provided Wen Sining with a lot of convenience. She had a good reason to stay in the Wen family, and it was more convenient for her to go to the company.

"Sining, can you go back and mention it to the old master of the Lu family to arrange a position for your cousin?"

Jiang Ruanqing handed the peeled lychee in her hand to Wen Sining's mouth. Seeing her looking at her blankly, she quickly said,

"The position doesn't need to be too high. A department supervisor will do. After all, we don't want to make things difficult for you."

Tsk, having no skills but a big appetite. A department supervisor? To lead his subordinates to gamble?

Wen Sining silently snorted in her heart but still obediently agreed.

...

At the Lu family, Lu Luochen held all of Wen Sining's information and frowned slightly.

The information showed that this woman had been adopted by her uncle's family since her parents' death. Because she had witnessed the tragic death of her parents with her own eyes, she didn't start speaking until she was eight years old, and her intelligence had remained at around ten years old.

Apart from having a clean background, she was completely useless. This was the good wife his grandpa had chosen for him!

He tightly clenched the few pieces of paper. Just as he was about to throw them into the trash can, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a paragraph.

Wen Sining's parents had bought a high - value accidental insurance policy before their death, and the beneficiary was her. The compensation amount was as high as 50 million!

But after Wen Shiqian became her guardian, he should have rightfully obtained this insurance. How could the Wen family's life only be at a well - off level?

At this time, his subordinate called again.

"Mr. Lu, I also found out that Wen Sining has been secretly investigating Wen Shiqian."

Lu Luochen sneered coldly and threw the information on the table. "Monitor her movements at all times. Report any abnormalities to me."

It seemed that there were many secrets hidden behind this fool.

...

At night, Wen Sining was arranged to sleep in Wen Minhao's bedroom. After taking a simple shower and coming out, the door suddenly opened. Before she could hide, she was bumped into by Wen Minhao, who reeked of alcohol.

She hadn't had time to put on the ugly red scar. She was only wrapped in a bath towel, and the water droplets on her hair tips fell on her smooth shoulders and disappeared between her breasts.

This scene was extremely alluring.

Wen Minhao was a bit unsteady on his feet, but his mind was still relatively clear. Seeing such a beautiful woman in his room, he stood there stunned and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"S, silly girl?"

Wen Minhao staggered towards her. He pinched her chin and looked at her from side to side. "Y, you had plastic surgery?"

The disgusting smell of alcohol hit her face. Wen Sining stared at him coldly and slapped his hand away.

"Hehe."

Under the influence of alcohol, Wen Minhao wasn't angry. His eyes were fixed on Wen Sining's chest. He smacked his lips, and there was a strange light in his eyes.

Wen Sining didn't want to entangle with him. But unexpectedly, Wen Minhao pinned her against the wall and pouted his pig - like lips and tried to kiss her on the face.

"Let, let cousin give you a kiss!"

A flash of killing intent flashed in Wen Sining's eyes. She raised her hand and slapped him, and at the same time, kicked him in the crotch. Her movements were clean and neat.

Wen Minhao covered his crotch. Before he could let out a howl, the strong inertia made him fall heavily to the ground. The back of his head hit the door with a loud noise.

"Ah! It hurts so much!"

"Remember this lesson. If you dare to touch me again, I'll cripple you."

Wen Minhao was frightened by the ferocity in her eyes. All the hairs on his body stood on end, and he was completely sober from the alcohol.

He looked at Wen Sining in disbelief. Was this still the silly girl who was usually stupid and let him bully her?

Jiang Ruanqing rushed over when she heard the noise. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Wen Minhao lying on the ground, with blood dripping from his head. She panicked and helped her precious son up.

"My dear, why did you drink so much? You fell like this!"

Wen Minhao saw Jiang Ruanqing and tightly hugged her leg and howled loudly. Pointing at Wen Sining, he shouted,

"This crazy woman wants to kill me!"
