Chapter 99: Intern

Lu Li stared at him in disbelief.

There were many people working in the departments nearby, but Lu Huai did not care and exposed his and his mother’s dirty laundry in public.

Lu Huai did not lower his voice when he said this, so everyone in the company heard him.

When Lu Li had made things difficult for Pei Xin, some people had already been unhappy with him. Now that they heard about Lu Li’s identity, they were even more disdainful of him.

“I knew it. This person is CEO Lu’s younger brother. Why doesn’t he have CEO Lu’s bearing and self-restraint at all? Should have known he was an illegitimate child.”

“I’ve heard about the Lu family before. Lu Li is only one year younger than CEO Lu. It makes sense now. Their father must have had an affair long ago. With his identity, what right does he have to despise Pei Xin?”

Although the staff spoke softly, Lu Li still managed to hear some whispers.

Lu Li felt very awkward. It was as if he was stripped naked in front of everyone.

His eyes turned red.

Lu Li stared at Lu Huai and asked, “Are you taking revenge on me for Pei Xin? You never mentioned my mother and my identity. Now, every time I make things difficult for Pei Xin, you expose my scars.”

At this moment, Lu Huai wished that Lu Li could disappear.

In the resting room, Xu Lian poured a cup of hot water for Pei Xin and handed it over.

“Drink some water.” Xu Lian said.

Pei Xin took the water mechanically and said gratefully, “Thank you.”

However, Pei Xin’s eyes could not focus. She was trembling as she held the cup of hot water.

Xu Lian looked at Pei Xin, and the emotions in her eyes were complicated.

She saw the densely packed wounds on Pei Xin’s exposed arm.

Xu Lian gently raised her hand to touch it.

Pei Xin subconsciously shrank back.

“Can you tell me who hit you?” Xu Lian asked in a gentler voice. “Did you get bullied in prison? Do they hit you every day?”

Pei Xin lowered her head and said softly, “They beat me up every day. They would spit in my food, kick my newly washed clothes, drag me, and smash my head against the wall. Every time we were doing crafts, they would sharpen them and stab me with it. Sometimes we have outdoor activities and play football. They don’t think about winning or losing. Everyone just wants to kick the ball at me.”

Xu Lian could not help but frown when she heard her words..
