Chapter 1264 - [Bonus ]Taking Off The Mask
"Woman in love is surely the most dangerous creature."
Lu Lian only frowned at her and turned to leave but heard Wu Suying again, "Lu Lian, this is what I was waiting for you to do and act and you fulfilled my wish."
Lu Lian stopped and turned to look at her to see what she meant.
Wu Suyin continued, "You have a habit of acting all so cool and indifferent. Whatever one does, you always act like it doesn't concern you and you act like an almighty goddess. I wanted to see you losing your temper and show your true self. In the end, you proved, you are not that great what you showed."
It surprised Lu Lian with what she was talking about.
Wu Suying said, "When we were in university, your so-called cool and indifferent attitude always irked me. When I dated the guy who was crazy behind you, you acted it doesn't matter. You had a crush on our senior and I dated him too but you still acted so cool. You have always been like that and looked down on others as if you are some kind of princess and nothing in this world can affect you to make you take that mask off of your face."
"So?" Lu Lian asked.
"So, I am glad to see that finally there is a reason for you to take that mask off and act the real you instead of being fake."
Lu Lian smirked and looked at her coldly, "The useless things you are talking about, never mattered to me. But for those who mattered to me, I am always like this. It's your poor vision that couldn't see it. I won't mind killing someone for what is mine."
Wu Suying smirked back, "I am happy to see your real side, Lu Lian."
"If you are done entertaining yourself, I'll take a leave," Lu Lian turned to leave.
"Lu Lian, don't worry. Your man is yours. He always considered me like a little sister," Wu Suyin commented.
Lu Lian scoffed and looked at her, "You don't need to tell me that. He had always been mine and not the kind to get attracted towards random flying bees."
"Very well, by the way thanks for standing for me even if you hated me," Wu Suyin referred to when Lu Lian confronted their common friends.
"Your ears are sure so sharp," Lu Lian said and left while Wu Suying just had a satisfied smile on her face and mumbled, "Such a showoff but I liked it."
After the event was over, Lu Lian left in her car while Ming Rusheng left with his assistant. On the way to Ming Mansion, his assistant said, "Boss, I want you to see something interesting."
"Tomorrow," Ming Rusheng commented and leaned back in his seat as he closed his eyes.
"It's about Ms. Lu," The assistant said as he looked at his boss through the rearview mirror.
Ming Rusheng immediately opened his eyes but didn't hurry. "What is it?" he asked calmly.
"It's nothing important. If the boss is tired, I'll show it tomorrow."
Ming Rusheng glared at him through the rearview mirror, "Are you testing my patience?"
The assistant immediately passed him his mobile, "The first video."
Ming Rusheng accepted it and played the video which showed what happened between Lu Lian and Wu Suyin.
By the end of the video, there was a pleasant smile on Ming Rusheng's lips which his assistant didn't fail to notice.
"Boss wasn't Ms. Lu so impressive. I never expected her to be so tough and scary," the assistant commented.
In trans-Ming, Rusheng nodded and mumbled, "She indeed is so amazing."
The assistant smiled as if he had achieved something great, "I always knew Ms. Lu is such a great lady…."
A coldness covered Ming Rusheng's calm eyes, "Why did you go to the women's washroom," Ming Rusheng asked coldly before his assistant could praise his woman.
"B-boss, I was outside. I just happened to shoot the video to show you. When I saw Ms. Wu following Ms. Lu, I thought there might be trouble so…."
"Don't do it again," Ming Rusueng warned.
"Y-Yes, boss."
Ming Rusheng did something on the assistant's mobile and passed it back, "I have deleted the video."
The assistant could say nothing while Ming Rusheng resumed his resting position as that light pleasant smile didn't leave his lips.

Jiang Yuyan returned home and the moment she saw the butler, she asked, "Did he have dinner?"
The butler shook his head and Jiang Yuyan went upstairs to Lu Lijun's room where he was sitting in the bed while doing something on his phone.
She calmed herself down as she didn't know why she hurried back and felt so anxious. Did she even have to comply with his demands? No, but it was like a natural instinct inside her that made her comply with it.
Lu Lijun looked at her and then resumed looking into his mobile, not saying a word.
"I was stuck in traffic," Jiang Yuyan replied.
Lu Lijun still didn't reply to her and she said, "I will be back in a while and we can have dinner together."
There was no reply from him as if she was talking to the wall and it made her anxious. 'This kid, even his silence is troublesome.' Jiang Yuyan sighed and left to go to her room while Lu Lijun finally looked up only to see the closed door.
In a while, Jiang Yuyan returned as the butler arranged the dinner for them.
Jiang Yuyan instructed, "Let's have dinner."
Lu Lijun put his mobile aside and sat in the chair opposite Jiang Yuyan.
The two finished dinner quietly as once in a while Jiang Yuyan was anxiously peeking at him who was just focussed on eating. Not even once did he look at her.
Once they finished dinner, Jiang Yuyan felt relieved that he had at least eaten. Once the servant cleared the table and left, Lu Lijun went to stand by the window while Jiang Yuyan brought him medicines.
Once he had it, she asked, "Do you have something to say?"
"I was surprised you returned from your blind date without having dinner."
Jiang Yuyan felt like a floor under her legs has been shifted and she was about to fall into the deep valley.
"Such a shame my wife goes on a blind date with a man who can't even offer her a nice dinner," Lu Lijun commented calmly as he continued looking outside.
