Chapter 33: 033 Cooperation for mutual benefit!

At this mont, the smoke that surrounded the car outside had already dissipated from its initial intensity.

Huang Mao probably didn’t expect Chu Jin to ask such a question. He licked his sowhat dry lips and gave a bitter smile, "My na is... Lu Zhenglin."

The last three words carried a forced bitterness.

Lu Zhenglin?

A shock went through Chu Jin’s heart, so it was him.

No wonder his face seed so familiar to her.

Lu Zhenglin, the legitimate scion of the Lu family of Capital City, and Lu Yan’s half-brother by the sa father.

Because his mother was the other woman, and as an illegitimate child, he had never been acknowledged by the Lu family.

Within the grand family, people of his status were dood to live in the shadows, never to appear in the lilight.

Years ago, when Lu Zhenglin’s mother was gravely ill and couldn’t afford dical treatnt, Lu Zhenglin pleaded with Lu Tiannian based on their blood relationship, borrowing so money. Unfortunately, not only did he not get a penny, but he was also beaten into a severe injury and thrown out.

Moreover, fearing exposure and criticism, the Lu family even sent assassins after him.

Later, his mother died of her serious illness.

Left with no choice, Lu Zhenglin then adopted an alias and beca a petty hoodlum.

It had been more than a decade since he last spoke these three words.

Words that seed unfamiliar, yet were extrely familiar.

Lu Zhenglin’s eyes turned slightly red. Thinking of the Lu family, hate began to surge in his eyes, and his grip on the steering wheel tightened gradually.

"Do you want revenge?" Chu Jin looked up at him with a serious and solemn expression.

Lu Zhenglin was startled, looking at her in surprise. A bright light flickered in his eyes, montarily forgetting to speak.

Revenge?

He certainly wanted revenge; it was sothing he dreamt of. But how could he take revenge against a powerful family like the Lu family?

With this thought, the brightness in Lu Zhenglin’s eyes slowly dimd. He was not yet strong enough to confront the Lu family.

Chu Jin slightly curved her lips, "I can help you."

Suppressing the emotions in his eyes, Lu Zhenglin said in disbelief, "How do you know..." He had only t Chu Jin twice, and all he had ntioned was a na—how did she know about his entanglents with the Lu family?

Chu Jin didn’t bother explaining and cut off Lu Zhenglin’s words directly, speaking very seriously, "Work with , and I can make the Lu family fall from their highest point!" Then she added, "By collaborating with , not only can I help you seek revenge, but I can also give you a normal identity and promise you a bright future."

The Lu family, Lu Yan, in this lifeti, she was determined to make them pay!

Although Lu Zhenglin was now just a petty hoodlum, the potential hidden within him was imnse. Lu Zhenglin was very business-minded with strong capabilities, but regrettably, without the right guidance and the suppression from the Lu family, he was forced to extres.

Importantly, she and he shared a common enemy!

If Lu Zhenglin hadn’t witnessed Chu Jin’s capabilities before, he would definitely scoff at this mont.

But now, he wouldn’t, and he dared not.

He was very aware of this person’s ans.

Although she appeared to be just a teenage girl, he could sense a maturity and poise in her that belied her age.

The feeling was as if she were a warrior seasoned by countless battles.

"Why would you choose ?" Lu Zhenglin narrowed his eyes slightly, speaking with a tinge of wariness, "I am just a nobody now."

"I believe in your abilities and also trust my own judgnt. To collaborate is to win together, and not to...," Chu Jin paused briefly before continuing with a cutting remark, "You only have a dead end."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhenglin’s heart fluttered. He was well aware that the Lu family would not let him go so easily, and he couldn’t always live in hiding under a false na.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing, but in the end, it turned into a sigh.

Chu Jin pressed her lips together, not saying anything more, knowing when to stop.

If Lu Zhenglin was wise, he knew how to choose.

Chu Jin raised her eyes to look out of the car window. By now, the smoke had completely dispersed. She leaned back in the seat and gently closed her eyes, lazily saying, "Take

to Wancheng Villa."

In just a mont, she had reverted to her casual, indifferent deanor.

It was as if the previous scene had been just an illusion.

About half an hour later, the car arrived at Wancheng Villa.

No sooner had the car stopped than Chu Jin, as if on cue, opened her eyes.

Her captivating peach blossom eyes were crystal clear, like a tranquil spring, devoid of any drowsiness that usually follows waking up.

Chu Jin reached out to open the car door, and before getting out, turned her head as if rembering sothing, and said to Lu Zhenglin, "If you’ve made up your mind, wait for

at Blue Iris Coffee Shop at 4 pm in two days."

Without caring whether Lu Zhenglin heard her or not, she got out of the car and left.

Inside the car, Lu Zhenglin watched her slender figure for a long ti, until she disappeared behind the high wall.

He didn’t know how to choose.

To trust her, or to continue living in darkness.

After all, she was just a teenage girl. No matter how capable, could she really stand against the powerful Lu family of Capital City?

This night was destined to be sleepless for so.

**

That day, she really was exhausted.

After returning to the Zhao family, Chu Jin hastily bathed and then climbed into bed to sleep.

The next day was Thursday, and she still had school.

When she ca downstairs in the morning, Zhao Yiling’s expression visibly stiffened upon seeing her, but she quickly regained her composure and affectionately linked arms with Chu Jin, "Jin is up. Where did you go last night? Mom, Grandpa, and I waited for you at the hotel entrance for a long ti."

Chu Jin looked up at Zhao Yiling and said indifferently, "Where I went—doesn’t Cousin know?"

Her eyes were too bright, too clear, making Zhao Yiling feel sowhat flustered, but outwardly, she remained calm.

How could soone who had been useless for eighteen years ever asure up to even half of her little finger, even if she had been enlightened by a master?

Originally, she wouldn’t bother talking to soone like Chu Jin—it was beneath her dignity!

But to gain control of the Chu Group, she endured.

Zhao Yiling still maintained her caring sister act, softly saying, "Jin, are you blaming ?"

Chu Jin raised an eyebrow, "Blaming you?" She then smiled with a hint of mockery, "I’m not sure if cousin is referring to the incident with Zhou Keting and Qian Jiayi or last night’s encounter with the thugs at the alley entrance?"

Whether it was Zhou Keting and Qian Jiayi looking for trouble the night before or the ambush at the road intersection, both must have been orchestrated by Zhao Yiling.

Did Zhao Yiling really think she was still the old Chu Jin, who could be easily coaxed and manipulated with a few words?

Did she truly believe that she was the cleverest in the world, and everyone else was a fool to be toyed with at her whim?

At Chu Jin’s words, Zhao Yiling’s heart shook with a jolt of surprise, looking up at Chu Jin incredulously. Had this fool noticed sothing? But she had been careful not to give anything away last night.

Zhao Yiling steadied herself and asked softly, "Jin, what do you an by that? I don’t understand."
