Chapter 9 Is there really something wrong with him?



Jiang Xuan nodded. "I'm taking the college entrance exam this year."

"Oh? How did the exam go?"

The notice appeared in Jiang Xuan's mind.

The original owner received the admission notice of the Mathematics Department of Ningzhou University with the highest score in the county, which caused a sensation throughout the county.

The county education bureau even hung a banner announcing the good news at the main gate.

Unfortunately, the admission notice was snatched away by his aunt, Yang Shuying, before he could even enjoy it.

“I got into Ningzhou University, but my aunt tricked me out of my admission notice. They planned to have Jiang Qiaoyun take my place. Jiang Qiaoyun is my cousin.”

Lu Shengye was very surprised, "They stole your admission notice?"

"Um."

Ningzhou University?

"Um."

Lu Shengye didn't ask any more questions, picked up the bag, and said, "Don't make a fuss about this. I'll handle it. Let's go."

The distance of a little over a kilometer is neither far nor near. Seeing that Jiang Xuan was walking slowly, Lu Shengye also deliberately slowed down. It took them nearly 20 minutes to reach the family compound.

Normally, it takes him seven or eight minutes at most.

"We've arrived," Lu Shengye said.

Jiang Xuan looked at the building in front of her.

The family compound was quite impressive, with a dark green iron gate inlaid with a golden military emblem.

There is a brick guardhouse on each side of the gate, with green tiles on the top, which complements the color of the gate.

Two sentries in crisp military uniforms stood in the guard post, their expressions serious and their eyes sharp.

Above the main gate are the words "Ningzhou Military Region Family Compound" written in large gold characters, the font is powerful and majestic.

Several bright red national and military flags were also hanging on either side of the lettering.

Upon entering the gate, you will see a wide main road stretching straight ahead, with neat rows of sycamore trees planted on both sides. The trees are tall and straight with dense canopies, forming a green barrier.

Jiang Xuan thought to herself: No wonder it's the family compound of the provincial military region, it feels different.

"Is that a store open to the public?"

"Um."

"Then I'll go buy some more things, otherwise it just feels weird."

"There's no need."

Jiang Xuan felt it was necessary. It was her first time visiting, and she couldn't just bring two packets of pastries and two packets of candy, especially since they were bought by Lu Shengye.

She went into the store.

The shop owner, Yang Caifen, is also a military family member and a warm-hearted auntie.

Seeing this unfamiliar face, she was about to ask which family she was related to when she saw Lu Shengye follow her in.

"Ono, is this girl a relative of yours?"

Lu Shengye hummed in agreement.

What would you like to buy?

Jiang Xuan said, "Could you please get me two catties of good quality tea, two catties of white sugar, and some wine?"

Jiang Xuan looked at Lu Shengye uncertainly.

Lu Shengye didn't look at her. "One pound of Pu'er tea, one pound of white sugar."

Yang Caifen deftly weighed the tea leaves, wondering what the relationship was between Lu Shengye and this girl.

Could it be a boyfriend/girlfriend?

This girl is indeed pretty, but her clothes are quite ordinary, unlike those of a wealthy family.

If they really are dating, given the complicated family dynamics of the Lu family, things will get interesting.

Yang Caifen wrapped up the tea leaves and white sugar, handed them over, and said, "By the way, Xiao Ye, I heard that your Aunt Wang is introducing you to Director Chen's daughter. What do you think of that girl? Have you met her yet?"

Lu Shengye glanced at her coldly, and Yang Caifen's heart skipped a beat. She quickly said, "I was just asking. If you don't want to say, that's fine."

Lu Shengye paid the money and strode out with his things.

Jiang Xuan followed her out, grinning and mimicking Yang Caifen's manner of speaking, though she herself was also curious: "How's that girl? Have you met her yet?"

"No."

Why?

Lu Shengye didn't even turn his head. "Not interested."

Jiang Xuan really wanted to ask, "Are you not interested in Director Chen's daughter, or are you not interested in women at all?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan suddenly shivered.

Could it be that he really has a problem?

Otherwise, given his personal charm, it's truly hard to understand why he would have gotten divorced before.

At the same time, Wang Yingqiu, whom Yang Caifen mentioned, was whispering sweet nothings in Lu Pei'an's ear in his office.

Wang Yingqiu is 39 years old, but because of her beautiful appearance and good skincare, she looks like she is only in her early 30s.

No wonder she was able to marry Lu Pei'an with a 10-year-old daughter.

At this moment, she had her hair permed in trendy curls, wore a loose green dress, and with her belly protruding high, she massaged her husband's shoulders and spoke softly.

“Peian, Tingting has been saying that she wants her own study space. It’s good for the two sisters to live together, but their schedules are not quite the same. Tingting goes to bed late, and I’m worried that she will disturb her younger sister’s rest.”

"Xiao Ye is often away on missions and rarely stays at home. Dian Dian and Fan Xing go to bed early, and the house has bunk beds and is very spacious. I was thinking if my little sister could live with them?"

Lu Pei'an readily agreed, "Okay, I'll talk to her about it later."
