Chapter 80: What Should Be Done

Lu He looked at Lu Zhen in shock. “What are you talking about? I’ve nurtured you for so many years and finally made you an A-list female celebrity in the country. In the end, you think you’ve grown up and want to disobey me? Lu Zhen, am I too good to you? You actually forgot the consequences of disobeying me!” Lu He’s voice was threatening.
“Consequences? Is it locking me in a small black room, or not allowing me to eat for three days? Or kneeling in the heavy rain for three hours? Or being pushed into the pond by Lu Rou and almost drowned?” Lu Zhen laughed.
Lu He flew into a rage out of humiliation, and his face immediately turned the color of a pig’s liver. He raised his palm in exasperation and prepared to slap Lu Zhen hard.
Seeing that Lu He’s slap was about to land, Lu Zhen closed her eyes. A few seconds later, the pain she had imagined did not come. Lu Zhen opened her eyes and saw Song Jia grabbing Lu He’s wrist.
Lu He was a tall middle-aged man with great strength, but Song Jia easily controlled him. Lu He struggled to break free, but he couldn’t move. “Who are you? What are you doing?” Lu He looked at Song Jia angrily. “Do you believe that I’ll call the security officers over?!”
“Ask the security officers to arrest you?” Song Jia looked at Lu He coldly. “Miss Lu is a signed artist of the advertising company. You wanted to hit her just now, but I only stopped you. Guess who the security officers will arrest when they come?”
Lu He was so angry that she stuttered. “I’m Lu Zhen’s father. It’s only right for me to teach her a lesson. What does it have to do with a young brat like you?
Get lost!”
“I’m Lu Zhen’s fan. It’s only right for me to protect her. You can try to see if you can beat me.” Song Jia’s eyes were filled with killing intent, and his aura was powerful and terrifying. Lu He was stunned by him for a moment and could barely speak.
“Lu Zhen, just you wait. Let’s see how I’ll deal with you in the future!” Lu He also felt that Song Jia was not to be trifled with. He glared at Song Jia and left in a hurry.
“Thank you.” Lu Zhen’s body went limp and she almost fell.
Song Jia reached out to hold Lu Zhen’s arm and held her wrist. “Does it hurt?”
Lu Zhen subconsciously wanted to say that it didn’t hurt, but when she looked up and saw Song Jia’s eyes, her nose suddenly felt sour. There was a hint of grievance in her voice. “It hurts a little.”
Song Jia’s heart trembled. He could feel Lu Zhen’s fragility at this moment. For a moment, he had the urge to hug her. In the end, Song Jia said, “Wait for me.” A few minutes later, Song Jia brought over a medicine box. He opened it and used a cotton swab to dip the medicine into Lu Zhen’s wrist.
“It’s fine. I’m not injured. There’s still an advertisement to film later…” Lu Zhen looked at the time and was a little anxious.
Song Jia glanced at her and pressed her arm with his other hand. “Don’t move.”
At such a close distance, Song Jia’s voice was even more magnetic and pleasant to the ears. Lu Zhen could see his handsome face when she lowered her head. She immediately stopped moving as if she had been under a spell.
After dealing with the bruises on her wrist, Song Jia put away the first aid kit and said to Lu Zhen, “Go to work first. I’ll pick you up tonight.”
“Will it delay your work?”
Lu Zhen wanted to refuse, but Song Jia stopped her. “This is what a neighbor should do. You don’t have to stand on ceremony with me. Alright, I’ll leave first. Call me if there’s anything.”
Looking at Song Jia’s back, Lu Zhen thought in a daze, Isn’t SongJia, her neighbor, doing too much for her? Is there really such a good neighbor in Country Z?
Before Song Jia left, he specially arranged for two people to secretly watch Lu Zhen in case Lu He came looking for her again.
In the past, Song Jia only knew that Lu Zhen didn’t seem to have a good relationship with her family, but he had no idea that the Lu family was actually abusing her.
She was locked in a small black room, was not allowed to eat, was punished to kneel in the heavy rain, and was even pushed into the pond by Lu Rou and almost drowned! When Song Jia heard this, he almost wanted to beat Lu He to death immediately.
It turned out that Lu Zhen had experienced so much at a young age. No wonder she was so strong, so sober, and so independent. In the past, Song Jia only felt that Lu Zhen was very outstanding. He admired a woman for having these qualities.
But now… Song Jia’s heart ached for Lu Zhen.
She was only eighteen years old. She should have been at a carefree age. She should have been pampered and lived like a princess. But she didn’t even have freedom. She even had to endure so much pain.
Song Jia took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down. He wanted to help her.. He wanted to help her leave such an ugly and cruel family!
