Chapter 18 Chapter 18 Part 2
Lu Ning didn't even think about it: "I'm busy."
She clearly remembered why she had clashed with this person.
She had just entered the school gate. There were groups of people around her, and parents were giving earnest instructions outside, which made her upset. So she just kept walking in without even knowing where she was going. She walked around for a long time, and it was raining.
Later, she was so angry that she didn't want to go to class at all. She squatted next to a small garden with an umbrella and threw stones for fun. While throwing, she hit someone. Who knew that this boy would squat in the grass.
He also looked at her with this indifferent look at trash: "Did you hit her?"
"I didn't mean to do that. Who told you to just sit there and keep silent? You're unlucky." Lu Ning was already in a bad mood, and the look in his eyes made her even more furious. "Why are you looking at me? Fight back if you have the guts."
After hearing this, the boy looked at her for several seconds, then actually walked towards her and was about to attack her.
Lu Ning had never been at a disadvantage in this regard, so she simply put her umbrella on his head and hit him with her head, causing him to fall into the mud.
The boy became even angrier, and the two started fighting.
In the end, no one got the upper hand. The boy called his brother over. After much thought, Lu Ning could only call Qiao Wu, but Qiao Wu told her that the students in this school were ordinary people and could be dealt with by giving them some money.
After hearing that boy ask her to compensate for the clothes, Lu Ning went straight to the bank ATM at the school gate and withdrew 10,000 yuan, which she threw all at them and ran away.
She never saw the boy again in school afterwards, and never expected to meet him here.
It’s the first day of school, what a misfortune.
"It's okay." Zhong Shixia said, "It's just paying back the money."
He rummaged in his pants and pulled out a stack of red banknotes. Lu Ning's eyes widened.
In addition to the red ones, she also saw blue and green coins and whole coins on them, and there were even two one-dollar coins!
"That dress is 18 yuan, and the pants are 30." Zhong Shixia's tone was flat. He stood in front of her and counted the money bit by bit clearly. "The shoes are 25."
Lu Ning felt that this person was doing it on purpose: "Why don't you include socks and underwear?"
Who would have thought that Zhong Shixia looked at her and said calmly, "It's old, not worth the money."
Lu Ning: “…?”
She didn't know for a moment if this person was joking with her. Could she really wear clothes that cost more than 20 yuan?
All those people she had beaten up before came to her to ask for thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.
This person came to my house and said he wanted to pay back the money, but he had thrown away the schoolbag. What's the difference between this and coming to settle a score?
"Who are you insulting? I've never paid you such a low price." She took a few deep breaths and said, "Don't mess with me. I don't have time to argue with you right now. I have to pay your medical expenses later. Get out of the way. My patience is limited. Don't make me say it again."
Lu Ning turned slightly, intending to push him away and walk out.
But before her hand touched the other person, it was pinched by the other person. She watched helplessly as the boy raised his other hand with the money, and just like she had thrown the money on him in the past, he threw all the money on her head.
The coin hit her on the forehead, knocking out the last of her sanity.
Her breathing suddenly stopped for a moment.
A five-dollar bill slowly floated down from above her head, landed on her arm, and then floated to the ground.
So this person really came here to cause trouble.
Lu Ning couldn't bear it anymore. If she continued to bear it, she would be her granddaughter!
Anyway, it was Lu Yingchi who said it, so we can't be so cowardly.
She grabbed the boy's hand and pinned him against the back door of the classroom, saying viciously, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? You have to tease me, don't you?"
As he said that, he kicked the boy's calf again.
The crowd watching the excitement suddenly cheered and became more and more excited.
Lu Ning: "How dare you mess with me with just this little ability..."
As she was speaking, the other person's hand moved to her back and pulled her away in an instant with frightening force.
In an instant, Lu Ning was pressed against the door, her face was hit and it hurt, and the boy kicked her calf.
She was so angry that tears came out. She had clearly said that she would go to school well, so why did someone have to provoke her!
At this moment, the boy relaxed his grip: "Why are you crying?"
Zhong Shixia frowned. Why was it always like this? She was the one who hit him first, but she started crying before he did.
Lu Ning was about to argue, but the classmates who were watching the excitement rushed over like a swarm of swarms.
Before she could react, Zhong Shixia was pulled away and pushed to the ground.
Those people protected her behind them and surrounded Zhong Shixia one by one.
"Zhong Shixia, what's the big deal about bullying new students? Come and beat us up if you dare."
"Yeah, isn't it amazing? Come on, let me see how capable you are."
Lu Ning wiped her eyes.
This Dogecoin is called Zhong Shixia.
She always handles her own affairs and never involves others.
Moreover, she was used to hearing how others spoke to her in her previous school, so she could tell whether the tone of these people's speech was good or bad. The tone of these people made her very uncomfortable, even worse than that of Zhong Shixia who threw money at her.
In just a few seconds, someone's fist hit Zhong Shixia.
Zhong Shixia, who had been pushed down, had also stood up, frowning and trying to block other people's fists.
"Stop!" Lu Ning pushed those people away: "What are you doing?"
"New classmate, we are just venting our anger on your behalf. Why are you so anxious?"
"I'll handle my own affairs." Lu Ning stood in front of Zhong Shixia, "You don't need to do anything."
"Another psychopath." The leader cursed, "Alright, then you guys go ahead and fight us, okay?"
Lu Ning angrily said, "Want to watch me? Get lost!"
The crowd started to commotion again, but no one showed any intention of leaving. Instead, the boy leading the group kept moving closer. "So what if you don't leave? So who are you, Lu Ning? No one's ever dared to tell me to leave, so who do you think you are? I'm here to see who dares to leave. I'll have my dad kill you. Do you know who my dad is?"
At this moment, Lu Ning finally understood that the people who spoke were indeed different when they changed places.
In the past, those people would only ask her for money, but now some people dare to compete with her for their fathers.
The first time I heard it, it was ridiculous.
She snorted coldly: "Do you know who my housekeeper is?"
Everyone: “???”
Lu Ning said, "When I fight, I never look at my father. I only look at how much each part of your body is worth. So either get out of here or give me your card number."
Everyone: “…”
What the hell, the new guy is not only a psychopath, but also has a big mouth.
For a moment, everyone was frightened and looked at each other in confusion.
Only one person who seemed to have been wandering outside the crowd suddenly spoke calmly from behind.
"These pants are a bit expensive these days, so the damage might be a few thousand," Zhong Shixia said. "But considering I kicked you, we're even."
Lu Ning: “…”
She looked back in disbelief, but didn't see any trace of joking on Zhong Shixia's face.
Found it.
There are people in this world who can’t read the atmosphere even more than the drunk Lu Xuan!
Those nearby thought the two men did it on purpose, and were instantly enraged and rushed forward.
Lu Ning thought to herself, don’t blame me this time, and then rolled up her sleeves and got on with it.
As a result, she saw that the people behind her were the same as her. They were originally about to fight, but now they actually started fighting with others.
Lu Ning was a little distracted. Why did she feel that everyone around her was weirder than the other?
Although he came to pick up Zhong Shixia from school, Zhong Min went straight into the school after arriving. He felt that with his younger brother's temper, something unexpected might happen again.
The two of them used to be in the same orphanage, and Zhong Shixia was born a little slower than his peers.
It's not about his IQ, in fact he is very smart, but he is very straightforward and stubborn, and he simply can't understand the deeper meaning behind other people's words. That's why he has had conflicts with others since he was a child because of this, and therefore he doesn't have many friends.
When his younger brother first entered school in the first grade of junior high school, Zhong Min bought him a very cheap set of clothes. Unexpectedly, he got into a fight with someone on the first day of school.
The other party gave him 10,000 yuan, and he changed his clothes seriously. He has kept the remaining money until now, waiting to return it to the other party, and he even remembers the other party's name clearly.
So when Zhong Min heard him talk about Lu Ning today, he felt bad.
At that time, he felt that Lu Ning was a child who was spoiled by his family. He had a bad temper and couldn't speak properly. Now that he transferred to another school in the middle of the semester, it was hard to say what the situation was.
That's why Zhong Min decided to pick people up from school.
Of course, he had other thoughts in mind.
No matter how much of a bastard Lu Ning is, he will not give in today. Zhong Ru uses his brother to watch over him like a dog, and he will not let Zhong Ru have an easy time.
He had checked that Lu Ning was a child of the Lu family.
If there is a conflict with the Lu family, Zhong Ru will be in trouble too.
As expected, Zhong Min heard a commotion coming from upstairs as soon as he reached the bottom of the teaching building. He ran up quickly and saw his brother in the crowd at a glance.
But why is the situation... a little different?
What's going on? Shouldn't he be fighting with Lu Ning?
Why are you beating others together with Lu Ning now?
"Grass."
In the morning, Zhong Mincai was called to school by the teacher who said that his younger brother did not get along well with the people at school. Now he saw his younger brother being beaten by a group of people.
The gangster spirit that had caused him to flee his home to care for his younger brother a few years ago suddenly emerged. Zhong Min rushed forward, cigarette in hand, "You bastards, who the hell told you to touch him?!"
When Qiao Wu couldn't get through to Lu Ning and came upstairs, the battle was basically over.
Looking at the scene in front of her, her eyebrows and heart jumped, and she almost couldn't hold her expression.
A group of children lay on the ground crying and calling for their father to come over.
Three of them stood out extremely. They sat on a child respectively, pressing one with one hand, like roosters that had won a battle, looking very proud.
One of them was even picking up the money that was trampled on the ground.
The teacher on duty who ran over had a blank face and was in a panic.
The security guard next to them felt even more wronged. While pulling people away, he explained to the teacher that they came very quickly, but they didn't expect that these people would end the fight very quickly!
Qiao Wu closed his eyes: "Lu Ning, come here."
Lu Ning shrank back as the security guard pulled her up, but soon regained her composure. She pointed at Zhong Shixia angrily, "I really didn't want to fight! He was the one who threw the coins at me first! Look, his head is all red from all the coins."
Zhong Shixia, who was picking up the money, looked up and seriously corrected him: "I didn't hit you, I was paying you back."
"Whoever pays back the money will do it by smashing it!"
Zhong Shixia was puzzled: "You gave it to me the same way last time."
Is there anything wrong with him going back?
"Then throw it back." Zhong Shixia handed the coin to her.
Lu Ning choked and immediately turned around to complain: "Look, he's provoking me!"
Qiao Wu: “…”
She brought Lu Ning to stand beside her and looked at the only adult present, who was the adult who joined the battlefield. The scene looked familiar no matter how she looked at it.
"Who is this person?"
"Oh, I remember him." Lu Ning was busy avoiding Zhong Shixia this morning and didn't pay attention to this man. Now she knew, "He is Zhong Shixia's brother. He helped us fight."
Qiao Wu sorted out his thoughts: "So Zhong Shixia came to you to pay you back, but you got into a fight, and his brother came over and helped you fight?"
How on earth does this statement make sense?
There were too many people, so we just ended up solving the problem in the classroom.
As the first parent to arrive, Qiao Wu pulled out a chair and sat down. Lu Ning was no longer so confident and sat down beside her obediently. "I really didn't start the fight. These people are so weird. I don't even know them. They insisted on picking on me. Lu Yingchi said I can't be a coward, so..."
At this point, she felt that it wasn't just her fault, so she added, "If I don't have enough money, you can ask Lu Yingchi for some. The students here should be more expensive than the previous school."
The teacher who was notifying other students' parents nearby was horrified: "!!!"
I have seen many playboys, but this is the first time I have seen such a terrifying playboy!
What a strange way of measuring value!
"Not bad." Qiao Wu laughed, "At least now I know to look for my uncle."
"Isn't that because of his instigation?"
Qiao Wu rubbed her head and said, "Study Chinese well and don't use any words to describe your family members."
Lu Ning felt very comfortable being stroked. She raised her little deer eyes and asked shyly, "Are you not angry?"
"It's not your fault, why should I be angry?" Qiao Wu didn't even look at the other children, his smile undiminished. "Don't worry, the entire Lu family is backing you up."
The entire Lu family.
Lu Ning swallowed.
For the first time, the surname Lu sounded so familiar to me: "For the first time, I felt so comfortable bullying others."
"Be good." Qiao Wu sighed, "I'll buy you an idiom dictionary when we get home."
In comparison, the two Zhong brothers, who were also called as parents, looked much calmer.
Although it was a bit unexpected, Zhong Ru should be in more trouble by offending so many people at the same time, so Zhong Min was in a good mood.
He was looking at the two people, one big and one small, sitting opposite him.
When they met in the morning, he felt that this person's temperament was the type he disliked the most. He had a preconceived notion and even thought that Lu Ning was taught to behave like that by her.
But he did not ignore that as soon as this woman appeared, Lu Ning nervously explained that she had done nothing wrong.
Moreover, the tone of this person's voice was different from the superior one he had imagined, and could even be considered gentle. However, her temperament was innate, so even with a smile, she would not make people feel close to her.
Such a young person, is she Lu Ning's sister?
Just as I was thinking about it, the children who had called their parents on the phone started shouting.
"My dad is coming, wait for him!"
Lu Ning refused to give in: "My housekeeper is already here! You don't have to wait!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face showed an expression of surprise.
Zhong Min stared blankly at this radiant woman. She was just a housekeeper?!
"Butler?" The child laughed when he heard it. "I thought it was someone else, just a butler. Why are you so proud? It's like everyone has a butler."
"It's different! My family..."
Qiao Wu patted her shoulder and said, "Take a break."
After saying that, he looked at the child and asked, "Who is your father?"
"My father is Luo Zhihua, the chairman of Luo's Construction!"
Qiao Wu remembered that there was such a company on the invitation list, which meant that the other company was not small, but it was only at the end and was insignificant.
She ignored the child and looked at Lu Ning: "Is he annoying?"
Lu Ning nodded without hesitation: "Hateful!"
"Why do you find him annoying?"
"He's very strange." Lu Ning was led to answer seriously subconsciously, "He said strange things to find fault. He was clearly the one who made the mistake, but he brought up his father, as if he could bully others just because he's rich."
"Will you become a child like him?"
Lu Ning was about to speak when she felt like she was hit on the head with a stick.
She looked up at Qiao Wu, but did not see any blame in his eyes.
Even Qiao Wu said "will become" instead of the affirmative sentence "already is".
Was she like this before?
She shook her head in shock: "No."
It's really annoying.
"Yeah." Qiao Wu smiled, "Good boy, don't be friends with him in the future."
If she comes to this school and sees people from a similar social class as herself, she will realize that everyone has different faces.
"Hey, didn't you hear what I said? What kind of housekeeper are you? Do you know what's going on?"
The ignored child's face turned red with anger.
His father happened to arrive at the classroom door at this moment. Seeing his son beaten like this, he was furious: "Who did this? Let me see who is so brave and dares to do this to me..."
As he spoke, he saw Qiao Wu sitting at the back door and paused.
Qiao Wu stood up slowly and nodded slightly: "Mr. Luo."
Luo Zhihua wasn't sure which side she was on: "Who are you?"
"I am the Lu family's housekeeper."
"Lu family?"
The Lu family was the only one Luo Zhihua was afraid of, but the housekeeper of that family was already old, so how could it be such a young woman?
So he immediately toughened up: "Your family did it? So what? My son lost a hair today, and I want you to pay it back tenfold!"
Qiao Wu chuckled: "So you don't intend to reason with me anymore?"
"What qualifications do you have to reason with me?" Luo Zhihua pulled his son over. "Now, let's see who dares to stop you!"
His son walked forward arrogantly, but as soon as he raised his hand, a slender and powerful hand grabbed his wrist.
“It hurts, it hurts!!!”
"You still dare to do it?!"
Luo Zhihua glared and was about to step forward.
Seeing this, Zhong Min next to him frowned and subconsciously took a step forward.
But before he could make a move, he saw the thin and weak-looking woman easily restraining the short and fat man, and the thin muscle lines on her arms looked very beautiful.
Zhong Min's eyes trembled slightly.
Qiao Wu had learned some fighting skills from the Lu brothers before, which he also learned for self-defense. It was more than enough to deal with these good-for-nothings.
She held Luo Zhihua's arm and twisted it back, saying calmly, "Since you're not talking about reason but qualifications, I'm afraid Mr. Luo will be disappointed."
Qiao Wu asked slowly, "Our old man has been in poor health recently, so all matters at home have been handed over to me. Mr. Lu is coming back from England soon to host a dinner party, and I'm the one who drew up the list. Where do you think you're on it?"
Luo Zhihua, who was cursing loudly, suddenly lost his voice.
Putting together a few key words, no other Lu family could fit so perfectly except the one in his mind.
"Which Mr. Lu are you talking about? Lu Jinzhi?"
Qiao Wu smiled: "What do you think?"
"If Mr. Lu knew before he returned to China that his only niece was bullied on her first day of school."
She paused and sighed, "It's pretty bad."
Luo Zhihua was completely panicked: "No, no, no, that's not the case. There must be some misunderstanding. Please let me go first and we will explain it slowly!"
Qiao Wu raised his eyebrows and let go of his hand.
Before Luo Zhihua could speak, she continued, "My daughter Lu Ning is on her first day of school today, and was dealing with personal matters with her classmates. I didn't expect your child to be interested and want to get involved. He even threatened to let Lu Ning see how powerful his father is."
Luo Zhihua's face turned pale.
"How good are you?" she asked with a smile.
"No, not that great!" Luo Zhihua held his son down, "Why don't you come and apologize now!"
Lu Ning turned her head away: "They also caused trouble for Zhong Shixia!"
"Zhong... Zhong Shixia?"
Who is this horse?!
Forget it, apologize first!
Luo Zhihua held his son and came to the Zhong brothers again.
Zhong Min looked at Qiao Wu with a complicated expression.
It was completely different from what he had imagined. This person was so smiling that she could let people know her status and power with just a few words without even a hint of rudeness.
Is this really the aura a butler should have?
Compared to her, he looked so embarrassed after having just won a battle.
At this time, the parents of several other students also arrived one after another.
Zhong Min turned his head.
He originally thought that it would be Zhong Ru who came, but unexpectedly the person who appeared at the door was Zhong Hejing.
Zhong Min's expression changed slightly, and he stood up: "Why is it you?"
"Mom has to go on a business trip today, so she asked me to come over."
"unnecessary."
Zhong Hejing sighed and walked into the classroom. After looking at everyone, her eyes fell on Qiao Wu and she was slightly stunned.
"Qiao Wu?"
Qiao Wu nodded slightly: "Miss Zhong."
Zhong Hejing was deeply impressed by Qiao Wu. The Zhong family had always had a cooperative relationship with the Lu family, so when she was a child, Zhong Ru would often let her go to the Lu family to play. After all, the Lu family had Lu Jinzhi, who was only a few years older than her, and several other sons.
But Lu Jinzhi was a genius, and a genius who was difficult to communicate with. He despised her for being stupid and never spoke to her.
The other children were very attached to Qiao Wu at that time, so Qiao Wu usually took her to play with the other children.
But as everyone grew older, she understood her mother's intentions and reduced the number of times she went there. As for Qiao Wu...
Zhong Hejing was not very willing to play with the grown-up Qiao Wu, and he seemed to look down on her, so their contact gradually became less and less.
I heard that Qiao Wu went abroad and is back now?
The last time Zhong Hejing saw Qiao Wu was at the Lu family. She followed Lu Jinzhi, her eyes full of flattery.
But the way the other person looked at him was very uncomfortable, and because of this, the two of them almost parted on bad terms.
But now she was wondering if she had mistaken the person, because the Qiao Wu in front of her was calm and confident, with clear eyes and bright confidence, more like the gentle girl deep in her childhood memories.
"Really? Long time no see." Zhong Hejing said subconsciously.
"Long time no see." Qiao Wu saw that she looked unhappy and pulled a chair over. "Please sit down first." "Thank you." Facing Qiao Wu like this, Zhong Hejing couldn't say anything harsh. She pulled the chair a little further away and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Come and take Lu Ning home."
Zhong Hejing was surprised: "You're here to pick it up?"
"Yeah." Qiao Wu smiled, "I'm the Lu family's housekeeper now."
Zhong Hejing's eyes widened slightly.
Then, wouldn't the Lu family be...finished?!
