Revenge Sevenfold

When she heard Hui Yin's reply, a cold light flashed briefly in Nian Zhen's eyes before her expression turned gentle once more.

"That's great, Yinyin! We'll have so much fun together."

Seeing the ignorant look in the other girl's eyes, Nian Zhen inwardly sneered.

She could admit that this lowly actress had looks, and in some other nouveau rich family, she might have a chance of becoming a trophy wife. But the Lu family was different. Background, status, and capability were the main driving factors. Just a lack on one of these already made you ineligible to be even thinking of joining the upper class society.

And those were just the basics. If the Lu family had given birth to a typical young heir that would inherit the company, then those three qualities might be enough to garner the family's approval. But the Lu family didn't give birth to an average heir. They had Lu Shen.

And Lu Shen was a mighty powerhouse all by himself.

So how could he be permitted to marry a lowly actress without status or background? It was all just a quixotic dream of this trash from the very beginning. Meat pies do not fall freely from the sky, as much as you want it to. And if this actress was still deluding herself that she and Lu Shen belonged to the same world, then Nian Zhen was willing to be the one to wake her up with cold water.

Nian Zhen and Hui Yin went back to the living room, where Lu Shen was still sitting by himself on the sofa. He had gotten his laptop out of his study and was typing something on it with nimble fingers.

Nian Zhen shook her head as she saw this.

He might have taken a day off, but there was no slacking from work. The Lu Corporation had been built from Lu Shen's hard effort, skills, and talent. She had watched him as he built his own company from scratch, and how he worked step by step to where he was now.

Nian Zhen was certain that no one understood Lu Shen in this world as much as she did. If there was a woman that was qualified to stand by his side, it could only be her.

"Brother Shen, I invited Yinyin to Wang Yong's birthday party. It's a great opportunity for you to introduce her as your fiancée. There's not a lot of people who know her, after all."

Nian Zhen sat next to Lu Shen in the sofa as she said this.

Behind them, where she wouldn't be seen, Hui Yin made a face. Such a snake. Every word that came out of her mouth was full of venom.

Hu! Hu! Hu!

Hui Yin exhaled quickly through her mouth in short bursts, like an MMA fighter right before a championship battle. Then she put on a big smile, swept the laptop off Lu Shen's lap, and put it on the table with an elegant flourish.

Before he could react, she jumped into his arms.

"Hubby, don't work~ Didn't you say we'll use your day off to spend time together? Don't you like my face better than that digital screen?" Hui Yin blinked her limpid eyes as she cupped her chin with her hands.

While she was studying in the university back in her younger years, Hui Yin used to make fun of the girls surrounding Jiang Xu by imitating their aegyo style. She had perfected it in such a manner that by the time she widened her eyes into a puppy-like look, Jiang Xu was already fleeing in the other direction.

By the look on Lu Shen's face, her 'skills' hadn't degenerated in the slightest.
