Married to the Male Lead’s Brother

Chapter 62 – “Lu Jue, I've found you.” (3)

Ning Zhi smiled.
Her hobby was to spend money and buy jewelries before her transmigration.

Inside of her security box was a pink diamond, also grade F, and slightly bigger than Madam Wang’s.

The banquet had yet to start and guests were trickling in.

Somewhat bored, Ning Zhi gave Mother Lu a heads up and got up to walk around.

As soon as she had walked out of the hall, she ran into Huo Xiaoyue.
She was pushing a wheelchair and in the wheelchair sat a young man.

She took a look at the man in the wheelchair.
He was decorous and handsome and there was a gold-rim spectacles resting over his nose bridge.
The reflection on the glasses blocked his eyes.

“What are you doing here?” asked Huo Xiaoyue when she saw Ning Zhi.
She studied Ning Zhi.

Ning Zhi was slim with a nude color gown.
She had just the right amount of light makeup on and her hair pulled up slightly.
The tip of her soft and fine hair curled up a little, making her appeared delicate and tender.

Huo Xiaoyue did not like Ning Zhi but she must admit that Ning Zhi, when she was dolled up, was somewhat attractive and she was good at dressing herself up.

Ning Zhi’s lips curved upward and she answered her with a question, “Why are you here?”

Ning Zhi didn’t have much feelings toward Huo Xiaoyue.
She was nothing but a rich spoiled brat.
Blunt, straightforward, tsundere, and easily riled up.
She was not a manipulative one and, even if she was, she could be seen right through.

Compared to Lin Tiantian, who like to scheme behind one’s back, Ning Zhi much prefer dealing with someone like Huo Xiaoyue.

“I am here with my brother for charity.” Huo Xiaoyue did not like occasions like that but her brother needed to attend for the Huo family.
Knowing that her brother was wheelchair-bound, she must come along to help him out.

Ning Zhi nodded.
“Mmhmm, me too.”

Huo Xiaoyue looked around and didn’t see Lu Jue.
“Lu Jue’s not here.
You left him home and came here by yourself for fun?”

There were so many people here and no way Lu Jue would come.
She just couldn't help but wanted to attack Ning Zhi verbally.

“Xiaoyue.” The man on the wheelchair stopped her.

Huo Xiaoyue reined in immediately.
Pouted and dared not say anything else, Huo Xiaoyue pushed the wheelchair and left.

Ning Zhi went to the bathroom and ran into Huo Xiaoyue again when she got out.

Tsk.
This wealthy young miss had her heart set on following her around?

Huo Xiaoyue gave Ning Zhi a mean stare and said in a very unreconciled tone, “I’m sorry.”

Ning Zhi was taken aback a little.
“You didn’t need to apologize to me.”

An apology like that she might as well had just skipped it.
Besides, she was not bothered by what Huo Xiaoyue had said at all.

“My brother said I need to apologize to you.” What she was saying was, it was not her idea and that she was forced by her brother to do so.

“Oh.” So that man on the wheelchair was Huo Xiaoyue’s brother? She recalled Huo Xiaoyue mentioned the other day that her brother had saved Lu Jue.

How was a man on the wheelchair able to save Lu Jue?

“What’s with that reaction of yours? Don’t you have something to say?” Huo Xiaoyue was displeased at Ning Zhi’s nonchalant attitude.

Ning Zhi looked over at her.
“What do you want me to say?”

“My brother had me apologize to you.
I was merely doing what he told me to.”

Ning Zhi said casually, “I know it’s your brother’s idea.
Did you want me to say that you are such a good sister?”

As soon as she had finished talked, Huo Xiaoyue’s stare became even more vicious.
“I am not a good sister.
I am not docile at all!”

Having said that, Young Mistress Huo stomped away angrily.

Ning Zhi was at loss.
The mood of this young mistress was even harder to read than that of little silly Lu Jue.
