Chapter 284: Chapter 284: Scald Injury

Su Jiao’s eyes turned red as if she was stung by Su Lu’s words. Her face grew increasingly tense.

The self-mocking expression on her face was about to falter. It’s one thing to mock oneself, but quite another to bear the mockery from others.

Over the years, Su Lu had grown accustomed to it, so no matter how harsh Su Jiao and Zhu Xinyan’s words had been, she could maintain her composure without taking it to heart.

But Su Jiao had never gotten used to it. Even if she could put on an indifferent, self-mocking attitude, her heart just couldn’t let it go.

Stung by Su Lu’s words, she reacted immediately.

Su Lu had no intention of taking pleasure in the misery of others. A basic principle of being a good person is not to delight in others’ suffering.

Su Lu raised her eyes and said to Qiao Li, "Brother Qiao, let’s go."

"Hmm." Although Qiao Li disapproved of Su Jiao’s earlier tone, he wasn’t the type to quibble with a woman. Hearing Su Lu’s suggestion, he nodded, "We should leave."

The two turned around, but had only taken a few steps when they heard hasty footsteps from behind.

Accompanying the footsteps was Su Jiao’s frantic and venomous voice, "Cut the crap! You think you’re worthy of talking down to me?!"

The hurried footsteps clearly harbored ill intentions.

Su Lu sensed this and swiftly turned around, her pupils shrinking at the scene before her.

A glowing red ember hurtled straight toward Su Lu’s face. It was the lit end of a cigarette in Su Jiao’s hand, accompanied by her savage smile. She had completely lost her reason, wishing only for Su Lu to suffer more than herself, hoping that Su Lu’s annoyingly calm face would never find calmness again!

Su Lu instinctively tilted her head to dodge, but lost her balance and began to fall backward.
