Chapter 31 -31 Lu Qianrou’s Face Developed Red Patches

The next day.

Today was Shengjing’s first day of school.

At half past seven in the morning, Lu Youye got out of bed with disheveled hair, groggy.

While brushing his teeth in the bathroom, he suddenly heard a scream from Qianrou’s room followed by the sound of something breaking, which immediately jolted him awake.

It was not only Lu Youye who was awoken, but also Lu Chengye and Jiang Ting on the third floor. Including Lu Jingyan, who had just finished showering in his room, hurried over after hearing it was Qianrou’s voice.

Of course, this included Lu Sheng who had already woken up early on the first floor.

By the time they all rushed to Qianrou’s side, upon opening the door, they saw the room was littered with fragments of a dressing mirror, which startled them.

“Qianrou? What happened to you…”

Wrapped in a shawl, Jiang Ting called out in shock, and just as she spoke, Qianrou, wearing pajamas, turned around trembling and clutching her face, “Mom, look at my face…”

Qianrou’s voice was filled with a sobbing tone, her eyes brimming with tears. As soon as she lowered her hand, everyone around gasped in shock.

Especially Jiang Ting, her eyes nearly popping out, full of disbelief.

Qianrou’s cheeks were covered in several patches of uneven red spots, strikingly obvious against her fair skin.

“Mom, my face, my face is ruined, wuwuwu… what do I do, what do I do…”

As Qianrou spoke, she began crying to Jiang Ting, losing any semblance of her usual poised and elegant demeanor.

In truth, Qianrou wasn’t considered beautiful, merely delicate and pretty like the girl next door, far from a stunning beauty.

But she usually spent her money on skincare, makeup, and dressing up. With thousands spent on clothes, bags, and cosmetics, she appeared beautiful and full of grace.

However, now early in the morning, still barefaced with diverse patches of red spots on her face, it was indeed shocking at first glance.

It indeed was ugly to look at.

“What’s happened here?” Lu Chengye was also shocked, “Qianrou, how did your face end up like this?”

Lu Jingyan quickly asked, “Did you eat something that caused an allergic reaction? Or is it eczema? How could these red spots suddenly appear?”

Lu Youye was also surprised, while Jiang Ting was speechless.

The three men were clueless, but to Jiang Ting, these red spots were only too clear; these were clearly the consequences of consuming Lychee Pollen!

But that Lychee Pollen, she had clearly instructed someone to put it in Lu Sheng’s congee yesterday.

But Lu Sheng—

Jiang Ting immediately turned to look at Lu Sheng standing at the back; her face was still clean and clear, even possessing a serene beauty that made one hate not being able to damage her face on the spot.

Her large eyes also appeared very bewildered, looking at Qianrou with a worried expression.

Jiang Ting felt a sharp pain in her lungs.

—What exactly happened here?

Why did Lu Sheng not suffer at all, but Qianrou ended up with these red spots?

Is it possible that the chef mistakenly added the pollen to Qianrou’s porridge yesterday, or could the servant have served the wrong dish?

But from the current situation, seeing Qianrou’s symptoms, the only explanation could be that she accidentally drank the Lychee Pollen intended for Lu Sheng.

“Don’t panic, Qianrou,” seeing Qianrou crying more fiercely, Lu Jingyan took a deep breath and said, “I will call Doctor Lin right now to have him come over and check what’s going on.”

Lu Jingyan was speaking as he went to take out his phone. But as soon as he took it out, Jiang Ting snatched it away.

Without thinking, Jiang Ting sternly said, “No, you can’t call the doctor!”

Lu Jingyan was startled, “Why not, Mom? Why can’t we call the doctor?”

Jiang Ting was suddenly at a loss for words.

Lychee Pollen is poisonous, and it only grows in the dense forests of the south, so it’s definitely not circulated in the market.

If they sent Lu Qianrou to the hospital or called a doctor, they would surely find out that the rash was caused by Lychee Pollen. Then how could Qianrou have come into contact with this stuff?

She had stayed at home all day yesterday, and all the food she ate was from home. Lu Jingyan, who was meticulous in his thoughts, would surely gather all the chefs and servants for questioning, and might even treat it as a poisoning incident and report it to police.

What would happen if things got out of hand?

As the lady of the Lu Family, it’s impossible for her to admit that she arranged for this substance, intending to poison her own illegitimate daughter, Lu Sheng, and inadvertently her beloved daughter ate it.

So, no matter what, calling the doctor was definitely not an option.

“I mean,” Jiang Ting took a deep breath, “it’s clear from looking at Qianrou’s face that it’s just an allergy, nothing serious, no need to make Doctor Lin come rushing over this early in the morning.”

“And today is the start of the new term at Shengjing, how can we manage if things get this hectic? If not possible, Qianrou should just wear a mask today, or use makeup to cover it up. We can check again after school, maybe it will subside by the evening.”

Lu Qianrou looked up at Jiang Ting with a tear-stricken face and understood what Jiang Ting meant.

The pollen was something she had watched the chef add to Lu Sheng’s porridge yesterday morning.

Whatever went wrong, now she was the one with the rash, but she couldn’t say anything.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

If her eldest brother found out that she and her mother were intentionally using this stuff to harm Lu Sheng, he would definitely be furious.

So, swallowing the injustice, she had no choice but to endure.

“…Mom is right,” Lu Qianrou sniffled, “It’s probably just an allergy. I’ll just cover it up casually and go to school today, Dad, big brother, Fifth Brother, you don’t have to worry too much.”

“Um…you guys go out first, I’m going to change clothes and wash up, I still need to go to school.”

Since Lu Qianrou had said so herself, everyone else exited her room. Only Jiang Ting remained inside, probably to say something to Lu Qianrou.

Lu Jingyan and Lu Chengye went upstairs, while Lu Youye looked at the Lu Sheng beside him.

Although it was still very early, the young girl had already washed up and changed clothes.

She was wearing what he had helped her pick the day before yesterday.

A simple white T-shirt and light blue jeans outlined the slender perfection of the girl’s figure. A high ponytail revealed her smooth forehead, making her look refreshing and clean.

Her eyes were clear, her features refined, and even without makeup she was stunningly beautiful. Her skin was so delicate, it was like a peeled egg, white and tender, tempting one to give it a pinch.

“Qianrou said you were looking at problems all day yesterday, did you stay up late?” Lu Youye asked Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng chuckled lightly, “The one who stayed up late was big brother, right? He still has dark circles under his eyes, looking like he hasn’t woken up yet.”

“I…” Lu Youye scratched his head, “I played games only until a little past two. Anyway, school starts now, I’ll sleep earlier from now on.”

Lu Sheng nodded, and as Lu Youye was about to say he was going upstairs to change clothes, the girl suddenly grabbed him, “Wait a second, brother—”

Lu Youye looked down and saw the girl standing on her tiptoes in front of him, and she held his chin gently, momentarily causing his breath to hitch.

The girl’s hand was a bit cold, and the pad of her thumb gently brushed his lips, wiping away a bit of toothpaste foam.

“Brother was in a rush coming downstairs earlier, you still had toothpaste on your mouth,” Lu Sheng smiled sweetly, like a little angel, “Alright, brother, go change your clothes, I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
