He never knew that his sister was so ambitious. Lu Yin had always been so sweet and caring in front of him that Lu Yu couldn’t even imagine her doing something so ruthless. To think that she actually tried to manipulate Lei Qian and called Bai Meiyue names.
When Lu Yin left, Lu Yu still thought of some excuses to ease her guilt, thinking that she was manipulated by Dacheng or that she did it because she had no choice, because she wanted to prove that she, too, could become something.
"I don’t think that I can apologise enough for what she has done," Lu Yu spoke in an apologetic tone. He bowed his head in front of Lei Qian and apologised gravely once again, "I am really sorry for her actions, Master Lei."
Lei Qian waved his hand and said to Lu Yu, "I didn’t tell you this because I wanted you to apologise. I relayed it to you because I want you to stop holding any hope towards Lu Yin. She might have been a kind child when she was young, but now Lu Yin was no longer the same person. So stay on your guard when dealing with her the next time."
"I understand, Master Lei," Lu Yu replied with a sigh. He indeed had some hopes when it came to Lu Yin; how could he not when she was his sister? His only family in this world. Lu Yu hoped that his sister would be able to see the truth and understand that he was only trying to help her and was always looking after her.
But it seemed like his prayers were doomed to dash, for his sister was too far gone.
With a sigh, he turned around on his feet and headed out of the penthouse. Even though Lu Yu accepted what Lei Qian told him was the truth, he still needed some air to clear his head. Running his fingers through his hair, he let out a sigh. Lu Yu climbed down the stairs and was about to head out to kill some zombies to take his anger out, but then he heard a sleazy voice talking to Shen Zhen.
"I think you will do better if you work for the base, Miss Shen."
He paused and slowly turned to look at the direction from where the sound came and sucked in a breath when he saw that it was none other than his own sister.
Lu Yin was standing in front of Shen Zhen. She was dressed in a uniform that looked way too mature for her and was smiling at Shen Zhen with a hint of flattery in her eyes. He then heard her say, "If you agree, then I assure you that you will be given the position of the chief doctor of the hospital and the conditions there will be much better. You don’t have to work in small rooms like these, and the salary that you will get will be higher than anything that Bai Meiyue could give you."
