Chapter 205 - 27: Showing Off
Lin Xiaoguai found it quite satisfying to watch, as she’d had enough of Lu Rong’s antics.
But she still reached out to pull Shen Chi back, signaling him to take it easy, especially with parents around.
Involuntarily, she turned to look at Mrs. Huang, only to discover that the latter’s eyes didn’t hold the sympathy or rage she expected, but rather a hint of pleasure?
In the end, Mrs. Huang half-supported Lu Rong as they walked out. By then, Lu Rong didn’t dare to glance at Shen Chi, let alone display her previous brazen covetousness, walking with her head down and teeth clenched.
"How come I feel like there’s something off about those two?" Lin Xiaoguai asked.
Clearly, Mrs. Huang came today to erase Lu Rong’s school punishment, but she didn’t seem to have much affection for Lu Rong. In fact, considering her behavior earlier, there might even be some resentment. Otherwise, after Lin Xiaoguai turned down her request, she wouldn’t have given up so easily after a token attempt.
Shen Chi smoothed the stray hair by her ear and said indifferently, "These two clearly have a facade of harmony but are at odds at heart."
He furrowed his brow, "Stay away from that woman in the future." Although he thought Lu Rong was all bark and no bite and posed no real threat, considering Wanwan’s passive nature, he couldn’t help but worry.
