Jiang Xiaoye walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat down before cursing angrily, “Last night, I led my men to fight the Azure Dragon Gang, but I didn’t expect them to have a trick up their sleeve. We suffered heavy losses, and even I got hurt. I almost didn’t make it back. Damn it.”
Lu Wanmian’s delicate brows furrowed slightly. Just as the original story described, he had suffered a loss in the clash with the Azure Dragon Gang. If she hadn’t stopped Lu Siyuan, he would probably have ended up just as disheveled as Jiang Xiaoye.
Lu Siyuan’s expression darkened slightly as he asked, “Aren’t you usually meticulous in handling matters? How did you end up at a disadvantage against the Azure Dragon Gang?”
Jiang Xiaoye spat in disgust and gritted his teeth. “The Azure Dragon Gang brought in some experts. They caught me completely off guard. A bunch of lousy scumbags!”
He cursed furiously, his language extremely foul.
Lu Siyuan glanced at Lu Wanmian, who was quietly eating nearby. Worried she might be affected, he frowned and reminded him, “Aye, my sister is here. Watch your language—don’t scare her.”
Only then did Jiang Xiaoye notice Lu Wanmian sitting nearby. He gave an awkward smile. “Oh, so our little sister is here too.”
Lu Wanmian greeted him politely.
After sizing her up, Jiang Xiaoye remarked to Lu Siyuan, “Your sister really looks a lot like you.”
Lu Siyuan’s lips curved upward. “We’re full siblings, so of course we look alike.”
Jiang Xiaoye pulled a gift out of his bag and handed it to Lu Wanmian. “Sister Mianmian, this is a little welcome gift for you.”
Lu Wanmian took it and opened it to find an exquisite diamond necklace—clearly expensive at first glance.
Being someone who loved money, her eyes lit up, a grin spreading across her face as she thanked him sweetly. “Thank you, Brother Aye.”
Seeing her money-loving expression, Jiang Xiaoye couldn’t resist teasing her. “Sister Mianmian, say a few nice things for me, and I’ll send you a red packet.”
At the mention of a red packet, Lu Wanmian’s interest was piqued. She beamed and praised him. “Brother Aye is so handsome and wealthy, exceptionally capable, mighty and domineering, talented and versatile…”
She rattled off a string of complimentary phrases, delighting Jiang Xiaoye. The two then added each other on WeChat, and he sent her a red packet of five thousand yuan.
Watching his sister shower Jiang Xiaoye with praise, a flicker of jealousy passed through Lu Siyuan’s eyes—she had never praised him like that.
Suddenly, alarm bells went off in his mind.
Jiang Xiaoye had a flourishing love life and was very popular with girls. Could Mianmian be getting attracted to him?
No way. That guy was a player, changing girlfriends one after another. He absolutely couldn’t let his sister jump into that fire pit.
With that thought, Jiang Xiaoye suddenly became an eyesore to him. He immediately issued a dismissal. “Alright, you’ve met my sister and given her the gift. If you have nothing else, you can head back now.”
Jiang Xiaoye’s mouth twitched slightly as he complained, “Seriously? I just got here and you’re already kicking me out? I still wanted to ask for your help dealing with the Azure Dragon Gang.”
But Lu Siyuan waved his hand impatiently. “Leave the Azure Dragon Gang matter entirely to you. Handle it however you see fit. I need to focus on my sister’s enrollment now.”
With that, he directly had his men escort Jiang Xiaoye out by force.
After Jiang Xiaoye left, Lu Siyuan quickly advised Lu Wanmian, “Mianmian, don’t be fooled by that guy’s decent looks. He’s actually a real player. Don’t let him deceive you.”
Lu Wanmian felt a bit embarrassed. Where was his mind wandering? She reassured him, “Brother, don’t worry, I didn’t take a liking to him.”
Hearing this, Lu Siyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”
He happily picked up a crystal shrimp dumpling for her with his chopsticks. “After breakfast, I’ll take you to school to complete your enrollment procedures.”
Lu Wanmian nodded. “Okay.”
After breakfast, Lu Siyuan drove Lu Wanmian to Jing University.
Upon arriving, the director of the admissions office personally came to receive them and quickly processed Lu Wanmian’s enrollment.
The siblings were led by the director to the teaching building of Lu Wanmian’s major.
Looking at his younger sister, Lu Siyuan worried she might be bullied at the new school. He patted her shoulder and instructed, “Mianmian, you are the eldest daughter of the Lu family. Even though you transferred here temporarily, don’t feel inferior, and don’t try to please anyone. Be brave and be yourself. If anyone gives you a hard time or dares to bully you, slap them right across the face. Even if you cause the sky to fall, your brother will have your back.”
His villainous, domineering declaration frightened the admissions director, who broke out in a cold sweat. He forced a smile and said, “President Lu, rest assured, the students at Jing University are all well-behaved. They won’t bully your sister.”
Lu Siyuan sneered with a dark expression. “Even if the overall quality is good, there are bound to be a few clueless ones. If anyone dares to mess with my Mianmian, I will not let them off.”
Lu Wanmian thought to herself, this is truly villainous thinking—so ruthless and domineering. She liked it.
She obediently nodded. “Okay, Brother, I’ll listen to you.”
Still uneasy, Lu Siyuan called over his personal bodyguard, A Kai, and gave him a stern order. “From now on, you will be the young lady’s personal bodyguard. Protect her at school. If anyone dares to bully her, you take them out.”
A Kai nodded and assured him, “Master, rest assured, I will protect the young lady with my life.”
Only then did Lu Siyuan feel at ease. He patted Lu Wanmian’s shoulder again, gave her a few more words of advice, and left, looking back repeatedly.
Lu Wanmian bid farewell to her brother and followed the admissions director toward the teaching building. A Kai stayed close by her side, scanning the surroundings with a fierce expression, wary of anyone who might try to harm her, causing the students nearby to scatter in fear.
Seeing him like this, Lu Wanmian couldn’t help but frown. “A Kai, I’m going to class, not to war. If you follow me like this, you’ll scare the other students. How about this—while I’m in class, you go out and buy some good food, find a place to sit and rest.”
Hearing that he could go buy good food, A Kai’s eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly. “Alright, Young Lady, I’ll do as you say.”
After dismissing A Kai, the admissions director led Lu Wanmian to her class—Class Two of the Intelligent Technology R&D major, where a lesson was in progress.
Entering the classroom, the admissions director explained the situation to their major’s teacher. The teacher warmly introduced her to the students. “Today, we have a transfer student joining our class. Her name is Lu Wanmian. She will be your classmate from now on. Let’s welcome her.”
Everyone clapped, except for one person, whose face turned ashen.
Lu Wanmian looked in that direction and saw that it was Lu Ruoruo. She hadn’t expected to end up in the same class as her.
In the original book, Lu Ruoruo was a black-hearted, scheming green tea bitch who loved to stir up trouble everywhere. It seemed her university life ahead wouldn’t be dull after all.
The teacher said to Lu Wanmian, “Classmate Lu, go find a seat and sit down.”
Lu Wanmian nodded and went to look for a suitable spot. As she turned her head, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a handsome young man sitting in the corner at the back of the classroom.
