Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Yumo did not want to resort to such an extreme measure. He felt that whenever something happened to Fu Zhi, his mother would turn into an entirely different person.

Right now, he could only do his best to calm his mother down. He said, "There is the following statement in the Buddhist scriptures: Lay down your slaughtering knife and become a Buddha. Mom, you have to stay calm!"

Well, Xu Wei was unable to lay down her slaughtering knife, at least not for now. She could not fathom why these people had to do this to Fu Zhi. She was filled with so much rage that her body was trembling nonstop. "Nonsense. This is pure bullsh*t! Your father donated the building to the school because he wanted the students to study in a better environment, and there are tons of people who bribe their way into No. 1 High School every year, so why must they single Zhizhi out? Besides, what proof do they have to claim that Zhizhi didn't earn those glorious moments through her own effort, huh? Why can't a student from a small town be outstanding? Must Zhizhi be an academically underperforming student like you? How absurd!"

As he looked at the machete in his mother's hand, Lu Yumo dared not say no at the moment. He shook his head vigorously and said, "Yes, yes, yes, you're right! I'm a loser. Zhizhi is the best girl in the world, and she is totally different from me."

As he was talking, he saw Lu Jingqing emerge from his study with a deep frown etched on his face. His eyes instantly lit up as he hastily shouted, "Dad, do something! Mom's trying to kill someone!"

Lu Jingqing then said, "Weiwei, put down the machete. It'll leave a bad impression if anyone sees you holding it."

Lu Yumo nodded profusely. Just as he was about to say that he wanted to invite his father into his two WeChat groups, he saw his father pull out a dagger from his study. Then, his father approached him with the dagger in his hand and said, "You're, after all, a descendant of the Lu Family, so what you do and what you say are closely related to our image. Your mother's machete is a little rusty, so it doesn't conform to your image. This dagger is new. Take it and go find the person who started all this to..."

He paused for a moment and looked Lu Yumo in the eyes before adding, "Get rid of him."

Lu Yumo was so speechless that he did not know what to say.

It seemed to him that there was only one thing he could do now. The things the post had mentioned in the forum were indeed horrible. The Lu Family had given him the green light, not to mention that his parents also had the power to help him get to the culprit through the web. Now that everything was in place, how could he still run away from his responsibility? As her brother, how was he supposed to face her in the future if he did not stand up for her when someone was bullying her?

With those thoughts in mind, Lu Yumo took the dagger from his father's hand and marched away valiantly with his eyes brimming with determination.

After he went back to his room, Xu Wei turned to Lu Jingqing and said worriedly, "I just want him to teach the kids that scolded Zhizhi a lesson. He won't really go and kill them, right?"

Xu Wei covered her wallet, which was getting thinner and thinner every day. She did not have enough money to bail her eldest son out of jail!

"Don't worry about him. He knows what he should do. Come on, the meal is ready. Let's call Zhizhi down to eat."
