Chapter 438 The Farce At The Ceremony, Injured Liu Yi
After the award ceremony officially began, Lu Yu said a few simple words to express his condolences for the disaster that had happened two days earlier.
After that, Jiang Lengyue walked over. It was her turn to speak.
“Welcome to the upper house and the award ceremony. The ceremony will now officially begin.”
After speaking, Jiang Lengyue walked toward a stand in front of her. The golden box on top of the stand automatically opened up, revealing the exquisite hero medal within.
!!
It had been a long time since this medal had appeared in the public’s vision, so everyone was incomparably excited. Their eyes were fixed on Jiang Lengyue’s hands, taking a good look at the medal.
Slowly, she took out the medal. This medal was small and fit perfectly in her palm. It was carved with a circle of delicate flowers and a dazzling red gem in the middle.
Everyone in the audience was nervous and did not even dare to breathe loudly. To all of them, there was no doubt that they were witnessing a historical scene.
It had been long since the upper house had awarded the hero’s medal. The last time it was awarded, none of the people present had even been born!
Lu Yu came before Jiang Lengyue and bent down slightly, allowing her to place the medal on his chest.
Due to his height, Lu Yu could only continue to bend down so that she could reach him.
Of course, she could also use telekinesis to hang the medal, but she wanted to do it for such a grand occasion. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful to the medal itself.
At that moment, the audience was hyped. Once he wore the medal, Lu Yu would be the upper house’s second-in-command, which meant he didn’t have to listen to anyone else’s orders other than Jiang Lengyue’s.
He even had the right to order everyone under him, including the instructors.
The hero’s treatment was of the highest order. This was the standard rule of most universities, cities, and organizations.
“Phew! I didn’t expect a young man to do such a world-shaking achievement!”
“It’s ridiculous, indeed. I wonder how far he’ll go in the future. I don’t think the upper house is big enough to fit him anymore.”
“He’s definitely going to join the military in the future.”
“It would be great if my daughter could get to know him in advance.”
“In this situation, whoever knows him will have their fate changed. No one would have a lowly future after following such a person!”
“That’s right. Even if they’re just following behind and eating his leftovers, they’re already better off than most people.”
Many people were envious of Lu Yu because they knew he had achieved absolute power in the upper house. He could enjoy all the resources the upper house had to offer.
Therefore, whoever was his friend would have an enjoyable future.
“I heard that Lu Yu only has one family member. His parents are no longer around.”
“It can’t be. This must be fake news. Common people cannot maintain the cultivation of such a genius.”
“That’s right. A genius of this level can’t be cultivated without a wealthy and affluent background. I mean, some of the top wealthy families desperately throw resources and money at their younger generation, but even they can’t produce such a genius.”
“But it’s true. He only has one family member, and it’s his aunt. The two grew up relying on each other, and their days were hard.”
“That’s right. It’s true. His feats are even more incredible after knowing his story. It basically defies all common sense.”
“His aunt must be lucky to benefit from his talent!”
At that moment, Liu Yi was staring at Lu Yu on the stage from the audience stand. She was watching him without caring about any distractions.
This moment could be considered one of the most important ones in Lu Yu’s life. A moment that would change his future.
Liu Yi couldn’t help but exclaim that Lu Yu didn’t let her down…
Suddenly, a person came over and asked in a low voice, “Hey, do you know who Lu Yu’s only family member is? What kind of background are they from to be able to cultivate such a talent?”
As soon as he finished speaking, another voice immediately laughed and said, “Are you blind? Why are you asking her that? Does she look like she knows anything?”
Obviously, the people sitting next to Liu Yi thought she was here just as an added extra after seeing her clothes. Her clothes were totally different from those of the upper cla.s.s.
“You’re asking me? Lu Yu is a good kid, and it’s my fortune to be able to watch him grow up.” Liu Yi smiled as tears began to gather in her eyes.
The people around them frowned and were confused.
“Eh, what are you talking about? Do you have any relationship with him?”
Liu Yi nodded and said, “Of course. I am his aunt. I was invited to attend today.”
Hearing that, the rich man beside her was stunned. Then he looked at Liu Yi again. He weighed her words and pondered their worth, but he said or did nothing.
He remained cautious. Only now did he realize that a woman dressed in such plain clothes couldn’t have been invited to such a high-end event.
The other wealthy people around them shut their mouths and stopped talking. They were all wondering whether Liu Yi’s words were valid or not.
They even began to plan silently about how to please Liu Yi inadvertently and get on her good side.
After all, Liu Yi was Lu Yu’s only family and the only person he truly cared about. If Lu Yu could continue to reach the top in the future, it would be a wise move to please Liu Yi now.
However, the lady sitting in the back heard Liu Yi’s words, and she was so angry that her face scrunched up as she glared at Liu Yi’s back!
She was filled with anger. How can a liar tell such a lie and have others believe it?
This was simply unforgivable!
From the beginning, she saw Liu Yi as a thorn in her side due to her jealousy. But what she was most displeased about was that this woman could sit in front of her!
She was so furious that even her hands were shaking. She couldn’t help but burst out in anger, even on such a solemn occasion.
The next moment, she seemed to lose control. She picked up her handbag that was embedded with gems with her right hand and threw it at Liu Yi!
The lady swung the dazzling luxury bag at Liu Yi, seemingly trying to vent all her anger.
Whop!
The handbag hit the back of Liu Yi’s head. The violent impact forcefully lowered her head.
Then, blood began to flow out from the back of her head. The bright red blood flowed on the back of her white neck, which was particularly glaring.
The entire place fell silent at that moment, and even a pin drop could be heard.
All the people around Liu Yi fixed their eyes on her. They were all breathing heavily!
