After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 152 - : Start the Fight and It’s All Over!
Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Start the Fight and It’s All Over!
She thought so, and then added, “By the way, I heard that Song Group has a partnership with XJ Group. The regional vice president must have some contacts with Song Sinian, right? Just get him to arrange a meeting between Jin and Justin…”
“…”
“…”
At this point, not just Lu Zhaozhao, even Xia Wenqing was rendered speechless.
He had been in the legal field for so many years, weathered through many storms, but this was the first time he had encountered someone so shameless.
The fact that Cao Mei could blatantly ignore all the conditions Lu Zhaozhao posed showed how she must have treated her at home!
Xia Wenqing looked at Lu Zhaozhao with a concerned gaze and gently took her small hand, “Don’t worry, brother’s here, don’t be afraid.”
Lu Zhaozhao felt the warmth in her palm, and her heart warmed up quite a bit too.
She had long lost hope in Cao Mei, and now, she could only feel speechless at what was being said.
Ever since she was little, Cao Mei had been exceptionally harsh on her, often gaslighting her. Now that she was no longer a part of the Lu Family, Cao Mei still wanted to use the same tactics?
Lu Zhaozhao chuckled softly and looked Cao Mei in the eyes, “How about this, when I get back, I’ll have Mr. Song sell half of the Song Group’s shares to the Lu Family at a low price, then he can also collaborate with Justin at a low price, as long as he’s willing to marry Xia Wenjin. How does that sound?”
Cao Mei’s eyes widened in surprise, “You, you’re not joking with me, are you?”
Lu Zhaozhao tugged at the corner of her mouth in a mockingly cheerful tone, “Isn’t it you who started the joke? Long time no see, and I didn’t expect Mrs. Lu to have become so humorous.”
“???”
Cao Mei’s eyebrows shot up, looking at Lu Zhaozhao with disbelief in her eyes.
What does she mean?
Is she rejecting her in a roundabout way?
Cao Mei gritted her teeth and glared at Lu Zhaozhao venomously, “Lu Zhaozhao, don’t refuse the wine only to be forced to drink a forfeit. While I am still nicely talking to you, just do as told! Otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?” Xia Wenqing looked coldly at Cao Mei, “Zhaozhao has nothing to do with the Lu Family anymore, and even if she did before, threatening her like this, I can still send you a lawyer’s letter!”
When Lu Zhaozhao first spoke, he actually thought she was going to agree to what Cao Mei said, which made him quite anxious.
Fortunately, he was overthinking it.
Now that Lu Zhaozhao had outright refused Cao Mei, his actions were going to be much more convenient!
Time to fight back!
“Smack!”
Cao Mei’s hand slammed hard on the armrest beside her, shooting Xia Wenqing a glare, “This is between me and Zhaozhao, what’s it got to do with you?”
Xia Wenqing scoffed coldly, “Zhaozhao is now the treasure of the Xia Family; you tell me what it has to do with me?”
“She…”
“And one more thing! Xia Wenjin’s household registration is still with the Xia Family. Have you ever thought about how, if you keep giving Zhaozhao such a hard time, we might just return the favor?”
Before Cao Mei could finish her sentence, Xia Wenqing had already interrupted her.

Cao Mei immediately shut her mouth.
She indeed had not considered this point.
After Lu Zhaozhao married Song Sinian, all the materials had been taken away by the Song Family.
It could be said that she had nothing in her hands that could threaten Lu Zhaozhao.
At the time, she had wanted to deceive Lu Zhaozhao into returning home and take some private photos of her, but this damned girl had been defying her ever since she got married.
She hadn’t been able to succeed until now.
She had thought that with her past experiences, she could suppress Lu Zhaozhao and make her agree to her demands, but she had not expected this damned girl to be so tough!
Cao Mei narrowed her eyes and stared hard at Lu Zhaozhao, threatening, “Lu Zhaozhao, think carefully. You married into the Song Family solely because of your status as the Lu Family’s daughter. Now, without that identity, you are nothing, and with the burden of the Xia Family, how long do you think the Song Family will tolerate you? If you obediently comply, I don’t mind acknowledging you as my goddaughter, but now, I want to see your performance…”
Her condescending attitude truly made Lu Zhaozhao feel nauseous.
Just where did she get her confidence?
Did she think that because she had made Song Sinian give up the lucrative mining veins and had later lent money to the Lu Family alone, things would go as smoothly this time and she would agree?
Lu Zhaozhao sneered inwardly and looked at Cao Mei with an indescribable contempt.
She slowly stood up, “Mrs. Lu needn’t trouble herself over my affairs. If there’s nothing else, I’m l to lift the Song Group’s ban on all the hotels affiliated with the Lu Family, I might consider letting this slide.” Cao Mei was especially smug as she said this, as if she had a chokehold on Lu Zhaozhao’s life.
She didn’t believe Lu Zhaozhao wouldn’t care about her reputation in the Song Family!
Xia Wenqing quickly pulled Lu Zhaozhao over and stood protectively in front of him, “Mrs. Lu really opened up a nice new way of thinking for me; to just casually speak after 20 years of cohabitation is really convenient.”
His expression suddenly darkened, “I wonder if the six mouths of our Xia Family, having spent 20 years with Xia Wenjin, can outtalk the two mouths of the Lu Family?”
Xia Wenjin, who had been watching the battle from the side, immediately got anxious upon hearing this.
“Xia Wenqing! Aren’t you being too much! To defend Lu Zhaozhao, you’d actually ruin me!” She glared at Xia Wenqing, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Xia Wenqing responded to Xia Wenjin with a smile that wasn’t really a smile, “This is also thanks to the Lu Family. I wouldn’t have thought of such a sinister trick otherwise.”
“You…” Her brows almost twisted into knots, and she quickly tugged at Cao Mei beside her, “Mom, look at him!”
Cao Mei also found this headache-inducing; all her planned tricks had been to deal with Lu Zhaozhao, and she hadn’t anticipated the Xia Family getting involved.
If she indeed went through with it, the Xia Family would surely do the same. They not only outnumbered them, but Xia Family’s Lao Si was also at the height of his popularity…
In a real fight, it would be a pyrrhic victory at best, utterly not worth it.
Suddenly, Lu Zhaozhao stepped forward—
