The Master's Mask Unveiled Again

Chapter 162: Chapter 161: Can’t Underestimate Her Anymore

Su Luo and Su Jue were shocked to their senses, finally regaining their rationality.

What more is there to explain?

The moment the video was played, there was nothing left to explain. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although they didn’t understand why Lu Mian could code, facts were facts, and they had walked right into the line of fire.

They even eagerly licked their faces, asking for Lu Mian to shoot!

How could this happen?!

Su Jue was the first to react, he turned down their volume and, as if suddenly enlightened, explained to Su Luo.

“I remember now, when Sui Yuan disappeared, Grandpa also asked for Lu Mian’s help… She found Sui Yuan’s whereabouts in just a few minutes…”

“Sui Yuan?”

“A classmate from my class, not important.”

“Bro, such important information, why didn’t you say it earlier?” Su Luo was filled with regret.

Su Jue spread his hands, “I didn’t see it with my own eyes at the time, who knew how she did it. And besides, Grandpa only said she was very good with computers; I never thought about programming! And I never imagined Grandpa would hire her as your coding tutor!”

It might have been preconceived notions, or perhaps the contrast with Lu Xinnuan, but when Lu Mian first returned, his impression of her was truly terrible, and he wouldn’t believe she possessed so many hidden skills.

But what’s the use of regret now? They had just sent that kind of message to Lu Mian.

Upon seeing it, who knows what kind of smile Lu Mian had on her face.

Su Luo had never experienced such a moment of being slapped in the face so directly, her face now dark and grim, burning with embarrassment.

She took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Bro, we can’t underestimate Lu Mian anymore.”

“…”

Su Luo was the first to stabilize and returned to the computer, turning the volume back up.

The other party had not hung up yet, and she still had to deal with what came next. She couldn’t even lack the courage to meet Lu Mian’s gaze.

Lu Mian, on the other end of the camera, was smiling coldly.

“Can I turn it off now?” she said.

Lu Mian was actually very impatient and couldn’t be bothered to deal with them, her purpose for starting the video was just to let them see for themselves, not wanting to say more than necessary.

Being slapped in the face publicly was simply Su Luo and Su Jue’s personal delusion.

Su Luo had yet to speak when Su Jue suddenly rushed forward and roared at the person on the screen.

“Lu Mian, you played us! Luoluo reported her own name from the beginning, how could you not know? You didn’t just continue the lessons, but you took a lot of our money and eavesdropped on our secrets. You’re pleased with yourself, aren’t you?!”

Lu Mian’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, her ten fingers interlocked as she stretched them in front of the camera, producing a series of cracking sounds.

Su Jue tensed up, soon hearing the indifferent, dismissive voice from the other side.

“Do you think I’m as idle as you are?”

Those words made Su Jue’s face flush red.

Su Luo tugged at her brother, “Enough, bro, now’s not the time to assign blame.”

Lu Mian was hired by Grandpa, and paying her was a mutually agreeable decision, which she accepted. If Lu Mian had really intended to play them, she would have demanded a high fee right when they first requested her services.

That would have been a true loss of both face and money!

They couldn’t blame Lu Mian for this, it was their own overconfidence and lack of caution towards this tutor that was at fault.

Su Luo tried to stay as composed as possible.

“Lu Mian, since you already know our purpose, there’s nothing for me to deny. We are indeed investigating the account you use in the stock group, and we’re planning to report you!”

“Report?”

“You reported my brother before, causing him to be kicked out of the stock group. We’re just returning the favor. You’re more familiar with the rules of the stock group than we are; do you really think you’re suited—”

“Enough.” Lu Mian had no patience to listen to her ramblings, cutting her off irritably, “What exactly are you trying to say?”

“Give us the group number for the stock group, and we’ll report you fair and square!”

“Heh…” Lu Mian let out an incredulous laugh, so bullheaded?

A wild and unrestrained light emerged in her clear eyes, she touched her chin and suddenly, in a good mood, she pulled the corners of her lips into a smile.

“Alright, I’m waiting.”
