Miss Lu Turned Her Back, Her Six Brothers Begged for Forgiveness - Chapter 18:

Chapter 18: She Shocked Everyone

Lu Ning’s move was devastating, instantly taking down two enemies and severely injuring another. After landing, she glanced at Lu Liu, who was lying on the ground with barely any health left.

Lu Liu stared at the game screen, overwhelmed by shock and disbelief. He had always known Lu Ning was talented, but he never imagined she could be this powerful! No, Lu Ning had never been this strong before. When did she become so skilled?

Earlier, when he was caught, he thought this match was lost for sure. But after Lu Ning took over, with her agile positioning and sharp awareness, she stabilized the situation and even turned the tables, executing the legendary pro move—Twelve-Strike Combo!

Lu Liu suddenly realized he might never have truly understood his own sister. She had become a stranger to him. An unsettling fear crept over him, an illusion that he was about to lose Lu Ning.

He hesitated and opened his mouth, “You—”

But Lu Ning walked straight past him and spoke into her headset, “Report your positions and status. I’ll be there immediately.”

Lu Liu was left standing alone, only able to see her cool and commanding figure in the game. He couldn’t stop himself from glancing at Lu Ning, who was fully focused on the screen, her serious expression incredibly captivating.

Lu Nanfeng spoke beside him, “Sixth Brother, what are you dazing at?”

Lu Liu finally came back to his senses and hurriedly followed. When he reached downstairs, he saw Lu Ning leading the rest of the team, launching an aggressive counterattack.

Lu Ning’s artillery moves were stylish and powerful, her positioning and mechanics at the top level—completely different from Qin Xiang’s clumsy style. This was exactly how he had imagined a pro artillery player should look. And it was Lu Ning who achieved it.

Lu Liu’s feelings were complicated beyond words. The competition he valued most was ultimately won by the sister he had always dismissed.

That gap left him shaken like never before.

The match ended quickly.

Lu Ning, as the artillery player, stood on the ruined streets, facing the setting sun as she embraced victory.

The host paused for a few seconds before announcing, “The result is clear. Lu Tian Team wins! The substitute player is unbelievable. Could she be the disciple of the legendary King?”

The whole arena erupted, fans even chanting King’s name.

When Lu Ning heard that name, she fell into a daze. In her past life, it was that person who taught her the Twelve-Strike Combo. She had suspected he was related to King, but he had never admitted it, and she never saw him in person. King had never revealed his face, and no one knew what he looked like.

Lu Ning took off her headset. As she stood up, cheers of victory filled her ears. She smiled faintly. Finally, she could make that guy who insulted her parents apologize publicly.

Lu Nanfeng was the first to approach her, full of excitement. “Ning Ning, your performance was excellent just now. It was your hard work that led our Lu family to win this match. I knew it—you might have refused to join the team publicly, but you must have been training secretly, right?”

Lu Nanfeng was delighted, thinking Lu Ning hadn’t changed after all. They were still family.

Lu Ning’s smile gradually faded at his words, feeling a bit disappointed. She turned to the Tushan Team captain. “You lost.”

The captain looked at her with a complicated gaze. “Who exactly are you?”

Lu Nanfeng replied proudly, “She’s my sister.”

“But isn’t the Lu family’s eldest miss that terrible player earlier? When did your family gain another miss?”

Lu Nanfeng’s face stiffened. “That one is an adopted sister. She’s our real sister.”

“You guys at Lu Tian Team really know how to play it, huh? Using a weak ‘adopted sister’ to distract us, hiding your real sister as a secret weapon to catch us off guard.”

Lu Liu’s expression almost collapsed upon hearing that. He hadn’t expected Lu Ning to be this strong!

The Tushan captain stood before Lu Ning. “But I admit defeat. You’re really strong.”

The Twelve-Strike Combo wasn’t something just anyone could learn. Since King retired, no one had mastered it until this girl. She was the first.

Lu Ning said indifferently, “Time to fulfill your promise.”

“Fine, during the match, I said some nasty things about your parents. I was wrong. My mouth was foul. I shouldn’t have said that. I’m sorry!”

Lu Ning nodded. “Watch your mouth next time.”

But Lu Liu spoke up, “That’s it?”

Lu Ning looked at him, confused. “?”

The Tushan captain sneered, “What’s it to you? The one who beat us is your sister! If you have no skill, shut up!”

Seeing the situation about to escalate again, Lu Nanfeng quickly held Lu Liu back to avoid causing more trouble.

After the match ended, everyone dispersed.

Lu Ning went backstage and immediately saw Qin Xiang, face full of tear stains, eyes red and swollen. The atmosphere turned awkward.

Qin Xiang looked up timidly, tears in her big eyes, appearing pitiful. Anyone seeing her like that would feel some sympathy.

Lu Ning’s gaze turned cold. She knew Qin Xiang was playing the pitiful card again, something she’d done countless times since childhood.

Qin Xiang whispered, “Sixth Brother, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have left the match out of stubbornness.”

She had felt humiliated earlier and thought Lu Liu would coax her back since he had no other choice. But she hadn’t expected Lu Ning to take her place—and win! And win beautifully!

Qin Xiang knew the situation wasn’t good. She had to repair her image in Lu Liu’s heart.

Lu Liu scowled. “You finally know to come back? If not for Lu Ning, what would you have done in this match?”

Qin Xiang tearfully said, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have been so fragile after a few harsh words. I was just too afraid of failure and did something so foolish. It won’t happen again.”

With Qin Xiang crying, the other teammates began speaking up. “Captain, she apologized. Let it go.”

“Yeah, Captain, if Qin Xiang hadn’t left, the substitute wouldn’t have had a chance to step in. How else would we have won?”

That suffocating feeling returned to Lu Liu’s heart. It was so frustrating!

Lu Nanfeng looked at Lu Ning. “What do you think?”

Lu Ning didn’t expect Second Brother to ask her. She said, “I think, since Qin Xiang already apologized, what more do you want from her? Sixth Brother, you’re being too petty. Qin Xiang sacrificed her studies for today’s match. How can you not appreciate her efforts?”

Qin Xiang secretly bit her lip. Lu Ning was clearly saying this to drive a wedge between her and Lu Liu! When did this woman become so difficult to handle?

Lu Liu felt like his lungs were about to burst. She was completely twisting the truth! Qin Xiang was the one at fault, yet now it all looked like he was the unreasonable one?

He shouted angrily, “Lu Ning, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”

Lu Ning smiled inwardly. Yes, she was doing it on purpose. She had been treated like this countless times before. Sixth Brother, you’re already breaking down after experiencing it once?

As she turned to leave, Lu Nanfeng stopped her. “Ning Ning, I officially invite you to join the team! From now on, we’ll advance and retreat together as a family. Let’s wipe the slate clean!”

Her smile turned even colder.
