Chapter 1295: The Unreasonable Protection

“Lu Jinbei, is your brain filled with dog sh*t?”

Hearing Bai Xiaonian’s voice, Lu Jinbei looked towards her. He didn’t have the courage to speak with Bai Xiaonian...

Bai Xiaonian closed the car door and walked towards Lu Jinbei and Lu Jinnan.

“Xiaonian, go home first. It’s cold outside...” Lu Jinnan didn’t want Bai Xiaonian to get emotional.

Bai Xiaonian waved her hand dismissively and glared at Lu Jinbei. “Ever since you said you were going to marry Cai Jingyao, I’ve given up hope for your intelligence. But how can you be this stupid? The final choice for the new perfume’s spokesperson is an internal matter of the Kaide Corporation. Did Cai Jingyao attend the meeting? You accused your brother of rejecting Cai Jingyao even though the perfume’s inspiration came from her?”

Lu Jinbei was about to say something, but Bai Xiaonian didn’t stop there. “I’m very sorry that Cai Jingyao didn’t attend the meeting today, but I was there! There were four candidates, and Su Manman was one of them. In the end, Su Manman got chosen. Cai Jingyao was not even a competition. Su Manman’s reputation as a seductive beauty is unrivaled in the industry, and the name of the new perfume is Femme Fatale. Who do you think is more suitable to endorse it? In terms of fame, Cai Jingyao can’t even hold a candle up to Su Manman. In terms of connection, Su Manman is Fu Huai’an’s cousin, so why would it be your brother stealing Cai Jingyao’s job when Su Manman is being a spokesperson for her family’s perfume? Is your brother going to endorse the perfume himself?”

Lu Jinbei hadn’t expected Su Manman to be the spokesperson.

If it were Su Manman, Lu Jinbei really had nothing to say.

“Lu Jinbei, how many years have you and your brother known each other? How many years have you known Cai Jingyao? You believe every word Cai Jingyao says, yet you disregard everything your brother says. There’s no way I’d believe that you haven’t twisted your brain somewhere!” Bai Xiaonian said in an icy voice.

“Jing Yao treats me well, and she’s devoted herself to me! Of course, I trust Jing Yao, unlike some people who say one thing, but do things in a completely different manner!” Who else could Lu Jinbei be referring to besides Lu Jinnan?

Lu Jinnan couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart upon hearing this, but his expression remained calm. He held Bai Xiaonian’s shoulders and said, “Go inside and rest!”

Bai Xiaonian couldn’t take it anymore. She flung away Lu Jinnan’s hands and stared at Lu Jinbei. “Your brother has been by your side all along! Supporting and doting on you for more than twenty years! Which one of your troubles has your brother not solved? Which mess that you’ve made wasn’t cleaned up by him? And you still dare to say that your brother is a hypocrite? Because I love your brother and I’m not willing to be with you, you’ve fallen out with him and treat him like an enemy! How many days have you been with him, and you’re saying how dedicated he is towards you! Lu Jinbei... I don’t think there’s just a problem with your brain, but your eyes too. You’re blind! The way I see it ... you deserve to be toyed around by Cai Jingyao to death!”

“I forbid you from talking about Cai Jingyao!” Lu Jinbei retorted, but he didn’t sound imposing at all. He looked away, not daring to look at Bai Xiaonian. He appeared like he was just mumbling softly.

The good things that Lu Jinnan had done for him all these years were replaying in his mind. Lu Jinnan was a man of a few words, but his actions spoke more, including buying a house for Lu Jinbei...

Once when they were watching a show on TV together, Lu Jinbei had unintentionally mentioned that he liked the house belonging to the male lead of the show. Just a few days after... Lu Jinnan bought a house similar to that house and gave it to him.

Moreover, Lu Jinnan had always been the first to arrive whenever something happened to him. Regardless of whether it was his fault or not, Lu Jinnan had protected him first before anything else! He was unreasonably protective of his own...

“Xiao Bei...”

Cai Jingyao’s voice rang out.

She jogged to Lu Jinbei’s side and pulled him back. She then bowed to Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian, crying her eyes out. “Sorry, Brother Jinnan... I’ve caused you trouble! Xiao Bei, come back with me!”

Seeing Cai Jingyao cry her eyes out, Lu Jinbei suddenly recalled how she had happily said at the dining table that she was going to sign an endorsement contract and that she would be able to buy a car that Lu Jinbei liked very soon. Her high spirits were all because she could finally satisfy him!

Lu Jinbei’s gaze towards Cai Jingyao was filled with regret. She was so sincere to him, even though they weren’t related by blood...

Lu Jinbei gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Jinnan. “Since you said there’s nothing shady about this, do you dare call the perfumer and ask him if Cai Jingyao was his source of inspiration for this perfume? Do you dare?”

“Stop talking, Xiao Bei!” Cai Jingyao tugged at Lu Jinbei’s arm. “Come back with me!”

“I must seek justice for you!” Lu Jinbei sounded righteous. “Lu Jinnan, do you dare call the perfumer?”

Bai Xiaonian was speechless.

Bai Xiaonian rolled her eyes internally. Those who didn’t know better would think that the two of them were acting here!

Lu Jinnan gazed coldly at Lu Jinbei. Compared to Lu Jinbei’s rashness, Lu Jinnan was calm and indifferent...

He said calmly, “You’re already an adult. Are you really still so naive to think that there’s any justice in this world? Just based on the fact that Su Manman is the Kaide Corporation’s chairman’s cousin, the spokesperson will only be Su Manman! It’s just like how you got that interview at the game company you’re working at because you’re my younger brother. So you’re the only one who has the right to choose the game company, but the game company doesn’t? As someone who has also been enjoying a special treatment, what right do you have to be degrading others here?”

Lu Jinbei was rendered speechless by Lu Jinnan. His throat violently vibrated.

“Lu Jinbei said that you told him you’re the new perfume’s source of inspiration. Tsk tsk... you’ve always acted like a white lotus, someone with a pure heart, in front of others, so how is it possible that you’ve become the perfumer’s inspiration for a perfume that is called ‘Femme Fatale’? Or...” Bai Xiaonian glanced at Lu Jinbei, then looked at Cai Jingyao. “You act like a white lotus in front of Lu Jinbei but turn into a femme fatale in front of the perfumer?”

Cai Jingyao’s scalp tightened, and she pretended to look at Bai Xiaonian with a look of astonishment. “Bai Xiaonian... how can you spout such brazen words!”

Lu Jinbei pursed his lips. He felt guilty towards Bai Xiaonian and didn’t dare to flare up at her. He could only say, “I believe in Jing Yao!”

Cai Jingyao then looked at Lu Jinnan. “Brother Jinnan, I’m very sorry. I received a call to say that I can’t get the endorsement. I was upset... Xiao Bei went overboard. It’s all my fault... Please don’t get angry with Xiao Bei. I’m unworthy of being the wedge between you, two brothers! If Uncle found out that you two are quarreling, he would definitely be upset. It’s all my fault! I’m very sorry!”

Cai Jingyao was adept at using this pitiful look.

Lu Jinnan looked at Cai Jingyao as if he was looking at a monkey. “It’s good that you know!”

Cai Jingyao felt a lump in her throat.

Lu Jinnan clearly didn’t play by the rules. According to etiquette, since Cai Jingyao looked so pitiful, shouldn’t Lu Jinnan say... that it had nothing to do with her?

“Lu Jinnan, what did you say!” Lu Jinnan pointed at Lu Jinnan’s nose.
