"Jiang Jiang, you're back?"
Jiang Li returned to her room, picked up her phone again, and heard Lu Shiyan's words.
Jiang Li gave a listless "hmm" and lost interest in chatting. "If there's nothing else, I'll go rest now."
"good."
After hanging up the WeChat call, Lu Shiyan looked thoughtful.
"Uncle, what are you thinking?" Lu Jiming waved his hand in front of Lu Shiyan, then said angrily, "The Jiang family has really gone too far! How could they treat my aunt like this?"
Lu Shiyan and Lu Jiming overheard the conversation between Jiang Li and Su Ruan.
Lu Jiming put himself in his shoes and thought about it for a moment; he was so angry he almost exploded.
He doesn't want this kind of fake concern.
“You don’t need to be so indignant here. Jiang Jiang doesn’t need it.” Lu Shiyan felt sorry for Jiang Li but also had full confidence in her. “She will handle it herself. Just pretend you don’t know anything about this and don’t mention it in front of her.”
This is his treasure; others may not appreciate it, but he will cherish it.
Lu Jiming responded, then turned to Lu Shiyan and said, "Uncle, I took such a big blame for you, shouldn't you stop cutting my allowance?"
Even the most brilliant and intelligent children still have to learn to compromise when it comes to pocket money.
Lu Shiyan gave Lu Jiming a cold look and said in a serious tone, "You still have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for your suggestion, would I have done something so inappropriate?"
That's right...
He posted that photo on purpose.
In front of Jiang Li, he seemed to have nothing to offer.
He is rich, but with Jiang Li's abilities, she wouldn't care how much he is worth.
If she wanted to, making money would be a piece of cake.
so……
After thinking it over carefully, Lu Shiyan realized that his only redeeming quality was his physical appearance.
If that's the case, then let's sell this outright appearance.
Of course, claiming it was a mistake was part of his plan, and Lu Jiming was by his side at the time, naturally to be used as a scapegoat.
What if Jiang Jiang really thinks he's not a proper person?
"But in the end, I took the blame for you, and you even made a WeChat call to your aunt. Isn't that a good sign that things are going further?"
Lu Jiming firmly believed that he had made a great contribution, but little did he know that he was just a completely innocent victim and a tool.
"Alright, since things weren't completely ruined in the end, I'll restore your allowance," Lu Shiyan said with a look of disgust.
Lu Jiming held up one finger, pushing his luck, and said, "Then... could you add just a little bit more?"
"Hmm?" Lu Shiyan's expression turned dangerous.
“Uncle, I’m Aunt’s deskmate now, which means that I’ll be the person she has the most contact with at school.” Lu Jiming’s tone suddenly became smug. “Then I’ll definitely get to know Aunt more and more. Uncle, are you sure you don’t need to bribe me to get more information about Aunt from me?”
Lu Shiyan remained silent.
Lu Jiming continued, "For example, what does your aunt like? Is anyone at school pursuing her, or is she being bullied by someone..."
"If she gets bullied in front of you, then what use are you..." Lu Shiyan sneered, "?
Lu Jiming: "..."
This uncle is a blood relative, and he manages his allowance.
Tolerate!
"I'll double your allowance," Lu Shiyan finally conceded, "Consider it your errand fee."
"Thank you so much, Uncle! You're the best!" Lu Jiming said happily, then looked puzzled. "What errand fee? Shouldn't it be my salary as a messenger?"
Lu Shiyan ignored Lu Jiming and said, "Aren't you going back to sleep?"
"Tch." Lu Jiming couldn't help but curl his lip and roll his eyes, saying, "Uncle, you're really quick to use and discard people!"
The next morning.
After Jiang Li got up, washed up, and changed into her school uniform, she didn't eat breakfast and grabbed her schoolbag to head out.
Jiang Chengxi came downstairs and just saw Jiang Li leaving with her bag. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing so early?"
"Going to school," Jiang Li answered matter-of-factly.
“The driver hasn’t come to work yet. After breakfast, he will take you and Jiang Xueqi to school,” Jiang Chengxi said. “So you don’t need to rush right now.”
“No need, it’s not far from the school.” Jiang Li didn’t stop. “I’ll run there, consider it exercise.”
Jiang Chengxi: "???"
Not far?
Twenty kilometers is a short distance if you run it!
"Skipping breakfast is bad for your health. You should eat breakfast first..."
"I'll eat at school." Jiang Li walked out without looking back, and then casually added, "It's free breakfast, might as well take it."
Jiang Chengxi wanted to say something, but he could no longer see Jiang Li.
Jiang Li had just arrived at the entrance of the residential area when she heard the sound of a horn behind her.
Turning my head, I saw Lu Shiyan's familiar face.
"Good morning, Ayan!" Jiang Li greeted her and continued running forward.
"Jiang Jiang, are you running to school?" Lu Shiyan originally thought Jiang Li was running to exercise, but when he saw the backpack on her, his face instantly darkened. "Get in the car, I'll take you to school!"
Jiang Li waved her hand, "How far is it? It's not even as far as my morning training on the mountain. I'm just here to exercise, Ayan, you don't need to worry about me."
Jiang Li resolutely refused to get into Lu Shiyan's car.
He ran away without looking back.
Lu Shiyan was a little worried, so he drove after Jiang Li.
He originally intended to deliberately slow down, but then he discovered...
There's absolutely no need for that.
Moreover, he has to stop at red lights, so all things considered, he's not as fast as Jiang Li.
Lu Shiyan: "..."
As they approached the school gate, Jiang Li stopped and said to Lu Shiyan, "Ayan, I'll give you your talisman later. I don't have the tools on me. I'll buy some after school today and give them to you starting tomorrow, okay?"
“Of course.” Lu Shiyan checked the time; it wasn’t even seven o’clock yet.
“It’s still early. May I have the honor of inviting you, Jiang Jiang, to breakfast?” Lu Shiyan asked.
Thinking of Lu Shiyan's escort along the way, Jiang Li smiled and said, "Let me treat you. Why not take advantage of the school's benefits?"
As a major shareholder of the school, Lu Shiyan was naturally aware of Jiang Li's special treatment at the school.
Of course, he specifically sought out the principal to learn about Jiang Li's situation, which is why he knew so much about her.
He truly hadn't expected that his future wife was not only a hidden master of metaphysics, but also incredibly talented in academics.
This only makes Lu Jiming seem less ambitious!
It seems we need to arrange more courses for him, otherwise it would make the Lu family seem like they have no heritage.
Lu Jiming, still at home and not yet out of bed: "???"
You're so great, so aloof, why did you have to sacrifice me when you were chasing after your wife?
Even breakfast at school is excellent.
Exquisite and delicious...
This made Jiang Li's appetite very good.
One person ate enough food for several people.
Seeing Jiang Li eating with relish, Lu Shiyan, who usually didn't care much about food, also ate a little more than usual.
Hmm...
My future wife is really good for eating.
fragrant!
