Chapter 402: Chapter 399

“Xiaojun, have you been busy with your studies recently, and how are things going with your boyfriend? You two are also about to graduate, do you have any plans for the future?”

As soon as these words came out, Li Zaijun’s movements froze.

Shen Lin slightly raised his eyebrows and chuckled, saying:

“Lu Xiao, how old is your sister? To me, she still looks like a minor.”

The little girl was actually in a relationship—he looked at her intently.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were uttered, before Lu Xiao could speak up, she shot a sharp look over:

“Is it any of your business!?”

The atmosphere instantly froze again.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao coughed loudly and turned his gaze to Li Zaijun.

Li Zaijun took a deep breath, abruptly set down her chopsticks, and blurted out, “I’m full, you guys continue eating.”

Saying so, she stood up, pulled back her chair, and left.

Everyone: “…”

Seeing this, Wen Xian quickly got to her feet, smiled at them, and said, “I’m going to use the restroom.”

She needed to clear up the misunderstanding with Little Zaijun quickly, or the situation could really get out of hand.

After the two had left, Father Lu put down his chopsticks, and his teacup landed somewhat heavily on the table, causing the tea to tremble lightly.

“Son, don’t you have something to say?”

Mother Lu also frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, looked at Shen Lin, and with a small tug at the corner of her mouth, she smiled and said:

“I don’t know what got into this girl today, she’s so hot-tempered. But it’s strange; she’s usually not like this.”

She was tentatively probing.

Hearing them speak so, Lu Xiao simply replied in a light tone, “Don’t overthink it, there’s been a little misunderstanding, but it’ll be resolved soon.”

Of course, he couldn’t tell them all the details.

Lu Xiao paused then continued,

“She and her boyfriend have broken up, her mood’s been poor lately, that might be partly the reason.”

Upon hearing him say this, Father Lu and Mother Lu: “…”

Just because of this?

But if their son said it was nothing serious, then it certainly wasn’t.

“So that’s what happened. I was wondering why on earth they would break up after two years together,” Mother Lu said, puzzled and feeling a sense of regret.

Their Junjun genuinely cared about her boyfriend.

Lu Xiao said indifferently:

“Her boyfriend cheated on her, breaking up early is good for her, but let’s not bring this up in front of her again. It’ll only upset her more. She’s not a little kid anymore. Let her process this on her own.”

He could only shift their attention this way.

As soon as Father Lu heard that her boyfriend had cheated, his eyebrows knitted together in anger, “That bastard, how could he do such a thing!”

Mother Lu also changed her expression and they both began to denounce strongly.

While they discussed this in earnest outside, inside the restroom:

Little Zaijun was indeed quite upset, seemingly unable to face them for the moment.

Because that person was a friend of her brother and sister-in-law.

Wen Xian entered, locked the door, and seeing her back turned towards her, clenching her little fists, she couldn’t help but go up to her and place her hands on her shoulders, saying softly:

“Little Zaijun, there’s something I did wrong; I didn’t explain things to you beforehand. Actually, the person who did those things to you, that’s him, isn’t it?”

At these words, Li Zaijun’s body stiffened, and as she slowly turned to look at Wen Xian, tears were on the verge of falling.

She seemed incredulous as she asked, “You, you all knew?”
