Chapter 46 Innocen
Lu Shi’s shrill voice can be heard through the hallway.
She is shouting and arguing with one of the hotel’s attendants.
"I am her mother! Let me in! You- NO- Don’t touch me with your filthy hands!"
"Mrs. Jiang I’m sorry but we really can’t let you in. We are just following the instruction-"
"What instructions? Huh? Call your manager! You- Hey You! I want to see Jiang Yue! You know what?! I will call your manager myself and have all of your pitiful ass fired!"
"Mrs. Jiang please calm down. We are just doing our job!"
"My daughter is a DISTINGUISH guest celebrating her birthday in this hotel. Do you hear that? She is IMPORTANT! SO! LET! ME! IN!"
This time a lot of people from the hotel is watching the scene. Some of them even recognize Lu Shi and started taking videos.
When Lu Shi saw Jiang Yue coming with some of the guests behind her, her angry curses immediately stopped as her tears started to pour.

"Oh my Jiang Mian, the heavens must have cursed you for having a sister like this." Lu Shi continued.
Lu Shi was so absorbed by her own actions that she failed to see the mockery in the eyes of the people who came with Jiang Yue.
After what happened earlier, who would still believe her?
Sensing that no one tried to scold Jiang Yue, Lu Shi lifts her face and roamed her eyes to the people surrounding her.
When her eyes landed on Fu Jin, she almost wanted to shout in victory. She immediately runs towards Fu Jin and shamelessly tugs his suit.
"Young Master Fu, you must help my daughter, Jiang Mian. She didn’t do anything wrong... Young Master Fu please help-"
"TAKE YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF HIM!" Lu Shi was startled when someone pushed her away from Fu Jin. To her surprise, it was Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue did not know why she lost her cool and reacted that way. She didn’t understand why seeing Lu Shi cling to Fu Jin made her so angry.
For some reason, she felt fear. Fear that Fu Jin might be convinced by this hateful woman in front of them. She looked at Fu Jin who was already staring at her. Jiang Yue expected to see the disgust in Fu Jin’s eyes but all she saw was his gentle gaze.
"You- How dare you to hurt me, your mother?" Lu Shi is smiling inwardly. Finally, Jiang Yue showed her true stupid self. action
"SHUT YOUR TRAP!" Jiang Yue bellowed without tearing her eyes from Fu Jin. She didn’t know why she wanted to know what he thinks of her now. To her surprise, Fu Jin gives her a small sincere smile. As if he is giving her permission to handle all this, the way she wanted to.
Lu Shi’s face froze when she saw the way Fu Jin and Jiang Yue looked at each other. Are they...
"Young Master Fu, look at how this girl treats an elderly like me. I might not be her real mother, but I loved her like I loved my daughter. Young Master Fu please give justice for me and my daughter." Lu Shi begged. She does not believe that there is something going on between Jiang Yue and Fu Jin.
Jiang Yue had such a bad reputation. No one is good about her except for her face and background.
Lu Shi’s words seem not to affect Jiang Yue as she keeps staring at Fu Jin.
Contemplating.
Trying to understand what he truly feels. Seeing that his gentle gaze did not disappear, Jiang Yue look away and fix her eyes at Lu Shi.
"Are you done?" She asked, her eyes full of ridicule.
Seeing the ridicule in Jiang Yue’s eyes, Lu Shi became enraged."You-you are truly evil! Let the police release your sister right now. Everyone here knows that you are the bad egg of the Jiang Family. Do not drag your sister down with you. She is innocent!"
"Innocent? Do you even know what that means?" Jiang Yue mocked as she narrowed her eyes at Lu Shi.
"Your daughter wanted to destroy my reputation. She spread rumors against me. Accused me of being a thief in front of my guest. And plotted to steal from me with her little boyfriend!"
"And you call her innocent?"
"Stupidity really runs in your family!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA lot of gasps can be heard after Jiang Yue finished her statement. Her words made everyone dumbfounded. Even her grandfather and uncle were speechless. They heard about those nasty rumors from Wang Minghua, but he also warned them not to intervene or do anything to stop it.
They did not expect that those were made by her own sister.
Jiang Mian and Jiang Yue’s confrontation earlier came to a standstill because of Lu Qian. So, this is the first time that everyone heard of what truly happened between the two.
"LIES!" Lu Shi fumed in anger. How could Jiang Yue know all this?
"What? Do you think I don’t have proof? I am not as dumb as you and your daughter Lu Shi." Jiang Yue sneered then she open her phone and showed the video of Jiang Mian and Yu Chen’s secret conversation.
When Lu Shi saw the video, her face immediately paled. "Stop that. NO. That is not true! St-STOP IT!" Lu Shi panic as she lunges at Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue did not expect Lu Shi to immediately attack her. Even though she knows a little way to protect herself, she also knows that her reflexes are not fast enough to avoid her attack. She raised her arms. An instinct. Trying to protect herself from Lu Shi.
She closed her eyes and waited for the pain.
That never came.
She slowly opens her eyes and is surprise to see two strong arms around her.
Jiang Yue widened her eyes when she realized what happened.
She is... she is currently nestled in Fu Jin’s comfortable arms.
Safe and away from any harm.
