Chapter 4: When did Cassel become a university?

Lu Gucheng is over 40 years old. He has worked hard as a first-level chief clerk and has gained enough experience to make a move to the position of researcher. Recently, he has been busy building relationships everywhere.

He is always on thin ice at work, and when he has a rare day off, he has to send his child to piano lessons. He finally has half a day free, but his nephew has a conflict with his wife and needs him to mediate.

The middle-aged man's helplessness was fully displayed at this moment.

After catching his breath, Lu Gucheng looked up and found that the imagined battle between aunt and nephew did not break out. Only his old woman with a gloomy expression was left in the living room.

It's good that there was no fight.

Lu Gucheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as he hung up the phone, he wanted to rush home to put out the fire, but was stopped by the security guard who told him that there was a package waiting for his signature.

He signed without looking carefully at the letter and just ran away. If Mingze hadn't opened it out of curiosity, he would have had to find a reason to divert the attention of his wife and nephew.

"Hehe, don't be angry, wife. Mingfei is still a child." Lu Gucheng opened his mouth and used his best trick to smooth things over.

As a professional peacemaker, he plays a connecting role both at work and at home, calming his superiors, advising his subordinates, and comforting his wife and children.

Although he didn't know why his nephew was so brave to confront the tigress today, it was probably because of some trivial matters that caused the quarrel, but somehow it ended up in a way that could not be resolved.

"Is he still young? His wings are strong enough to fly up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun!"

Auntie was embarrassed by the criticism just now, but now her husband offered her a way out and she took it. She also mentioned Lu Mingfei and passed the blame to Lu Gucheng: "Your nephew is making a fuss about running away from home. You can handle it yourself. I can't control him anyway."

"Ah, but Mingfei's study abroad application..."

"I told you to handle it yourself. I have no right to worry about that!"

Auntie gave up her job and shook her arms like a 100-pound awkward young wife, and sent Lu Mingze, who walked into the house as if nothing had happened, to run errands:

"A box of discounted bagged milk, half a pound of Guangdong sausages, and your novel magazine. After you buy them, help me pick the vegetables! Oh, and you are not allowed to take the elevator!"

"Ah?" The little fat boy glanced at the basket of vegetables handed to him, then looked at his mother who looked murderous. His chubby face was full of doubts about maternal love.

"What?" The aunt glared at her son. The more she looked at his 160cm tall and 160kg body, the more upset she became. "You usually don't even want to walk a few more steps, and now you've become so fat. From today on, run for half an hour every day!"

The fat boy who suffered an unexpected disaster wailed and ran downstairs with a sad face. He remembered Lu Mingfei in his heart. It was all because of that bad cousin! After losing his temper, the aunt unplugged the telephone line at home, and then returned to the room and slammed the door.

She took out the notebook from the closet, which she had saved for six years but still hadn't saved much money, with hesitation and reluctance in her eyes.

Lu Mingfei's outburst today took everyone by surprise.

His reaction was not the kind of anger that comes from an honest man who has been oppressed for a long time and can no longer endure it, but the kind of...

It's like a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest, stuffing an extremely strong soul into a cowardly body, and using a knife to remove and cut off the oppression applied to the body bit by bit. Anyone who dares to show off in front of him will be hit hard.

Just, the unfamiliar makes people feel scared.

She was self-aware enough. If she continued to stay at the crime scene, the contradictions and conflicts between the two sides would only intensify until they became irreconcilable. After all, she knew how bad her temper was.

Both sides are very emotional now. If anyone says something without consideration, that brat Lu Mingfei might dare to open the window on the spot and perform an unprotected high diving for them.

So, let Lao Lu do the ideological work on him first.

In the living room, Lu Gucheng looked at the slammed bedroom door with a bit of helplessness, and came to the two brothers' room with a thin envelope and a FEDEX package in his hand.

The door was open and a half-filled backpack was placed under the bunk bed.

The skinny boy, whose figure didn't fit in with their family, was standing in front of the computer, skillfully deleting various records related to himself.

After cleaning up the chat history and uninstalling StarCraft, Lu Mingfei also deleted the hidden learning material "Derivative Formula" on drive D.

My fat cousin is weak to begin with, so it’s better for him to avoid looking at things that take away his yang energy.

Noticing the hesitant gaze behind him, Lu Mingfei turned his head and said:

"Uncle, no need to persuade me, I have made up my mind."

If there is anyone in this family who is truly kind to him, it is perhaps this henpecked uncle.

Although Lu Gucheng also liked to take advantage of others, he would never act like a good boy after taking advantage of them. Moreover, after he left in anger, his uncle really took half a month off and searched all over the world for him.

Lu Gucheng felt overwhelmed upon hearing this. He wanted to persuade him but didn't know where to start: "Ming Fei, what is going on?"

"Just think of me as someone who can't get used to living under someone else's roof and is planning to build a nest outside to fend for myself."

Lu Mingfei closed his computer, glanced at the drawer with the word "Fei" written on it on the lower right corner of the desk, felt his pockets but couldn't find the key, so he simply unlocked it violently.

Three fingers hooked on the bottom edge of the drawer, the muscles on his slender arms suddenly tensed, and then he pulled hard.

With a "bang", the lock tongue broke the wood and the drawer opened smoothly.

Lu Mingfei looked down and saw his ID card, student ID, handsome guy ID and some other miscellaneous cards in the drawer, as well as a dozen letters and an anime wallet with a picture of the little yellow-haired Konoha boy.

The letter was sent by his mother, and the wallet was full of loose cash. He didn't look at it carefully and put all the money into the bag.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Look at the drawer that was broken open violently and the nephew's nonchalant expression.

Lu Gucheng knew that things might be difficult to resolve.

The indifference in the nephew's words just now seemed as if leaving this home was already an established fact for him and could not be changed by anyone's will.

only……

"What do you mean by living under someone else's roof? We have always treated you as a family member!" Lu Gucheng tried to play the emotional card.

"Besides, where are you going to go after leaving here? The college entrance examination is coming soon. Even if you want to study abroad, it will take time to prepare."

As he spoke, he shook the envelope and package in his hand: "Your application to study abroad has been approved, and they are planning to arrange a time for an interview."

“Family?” Lu Mingfei glanced at him and chuckled, “Chou Kai said so back then, and so did those livestreamers, but in the end, it’s all for the little money in their family’s pockets.

As for going to college, forget it. Family members know their own business. I am not good at studying, and it would be a waste of money to go to those foreign fake universities."

Lu Gucheng didn’t understand what was ugly about live streaming, but after years of experience in the company, he immediately grasped the key points:

"The university that chose you is not some fake university, but a private university in the United States called Cassel, which is a sister school of the University of Chicago!

Moreover, their professors are currently on academic visits in China and can come over to interview you at any time!"

Lu Mingfei had originally just ignored it, but the moment the word "Caselle" appeared, he perked up and suddenly turned around to stare at his uncle:

"What's that school called? Cassel?!"

Seeing that his nephew was interested, Lu Gucheng immediately stepped forward and handed him the envelope and package: "Yes, have you heard of this school too?"

I have heard it, that is too much. If the person in charge of Cassel Trust had understood the actual situation, I would not have been forced to wander the streets!

Lu Mingfei cursed in his heart, took the thing and started to look at it.

The rejection & invitation letter written in Chinese began by saying that he was not admitted to the University of Chicago and was asked to find another way out - that is, to go to Kassel College.

"My application materials were obtained from the University of Chicago? It turns out that there is no privacy at all when it comes to personal privacy." Lu Mingfei couldn't help but complain that Lao Mei was too democratic.

Putting aside the motive for the crime, the following content is for him to contact Professor Guderian of Kassel College as soon as possible to arrange an interview, and if he has any questions, he can ask the college secretary Norma Lawnes for help.

I don’t know who Norma is, but Guderian seems to be the trustee who was fooled by my aunt in the previous life! How can such a fool be a professor?! Isn’t that just misleading students?! Meili Nut is doomed! (End of this chapter)
