Chapter 229 You should still tell yourself.



Although Lu Jiming complained a lot, he also knew that even if Jiang Li had a dog outside, it wasn't the kind of person who could threaten his uncle's position.

but……

Lu Jiming couldn't help but ask again, "Who exactly are you trying to teach this to? Or are you planning to take on an apprentice?"

To become Jiang Li's apprentice, one must possess extraordinary talent.

He felt that Jiang Li would look down on most people.

He felt that anyone with even a little ability was not up to standard.

"You'll definitely regret it if you find out," Jiang Li said with a very serious expression. "So you'd better not ask. The most important thing is that you learn it well yourself, isn't it?"

Lu Jiming thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'd better focus on what I need to do, otherwise my uncle will definitely laugh at me if I don't study well."

Jiang Li: "..."

She felt that with Ayan's level of ability, he had no right to laugh at others.

Even if someone studies poorly, they can only be about the same as him. How could they possibly be worse than him?

With that in mind, Jiang Li began to teach Lu Jiming.

Lu Jiming was a little confused at first, but gradually, a flash of inspiration seemed to come to him, and he remembered these things very easily.

Jiang Li initially just casually taught Lu Jiming a few things...

But unexpectedly...

"You..." Jiang Li's tone was tinged with joy, her eyes shining slightly, "Have you studied this kind of writing before?"

"How is that possible?" Lu Jiming shook his head like a rattle drum. "I just said I don't know a single word, how am I supposed to study this? I learned it all on the spot!"

As he spoke, Lu Jiming's tone became smug again, "How about it? Don't you think I have a special talent in this area now? And that I'm improving extremely fast?"

"Yes." Jiang Li nodded honestly, "Although it can't compare to mine, this speed is still a rare sight. At least, I've never seen anyone faster than you."

Lu Jiming was now truly smug. "Then I'd better study hard. I need to learn it as soon as possible so I can show it off to my uncle. I want him to know that I can learn this kind of thing with ease."

Jiang Li looked embarrassed for a moment, and said, "I think you'd better not."

Otherwise, given how petty that man is, he would definitely try to sabotage Lu Jiming in secret.

"Why wouldn't I want it? I absolutely have to!" Lu Jiming said seriously. "When you study well, isn't that the time to ask for praise and rewards? I absolutely can't miss this great opportunity!"

Jiang Li: "..."

If you insist on courting death, then I won't stop you.

So Jiang Li didn't waste any more time on this topic and continued to teach Lu Jiming.

Now that Jiang Li knows Lu Jiming has good talent, she teaches him with extra care.

One taught diligently, and the other learned diligently.

Time flies by without you even realizing it.

If Lu Shiyan hadn't called to tell them that their lunch was almost delivered, the two of them wouldn't have even remembered to eat lunch.

"Huh? Is it already lunchtime?" Jiang Li's tone was a little surprised. She checked the time, it was exactly 12 o'clock. "Oh, it's time to eat. If it weren't for you ordering lunch for us, Ayan, we probably would have forgotten to eat."

“You’re being taught one-on-one now, and I’m the one who sent Lu Jiming over, so naturally I have to pay attention to your food.” Lu Shiyan chuckled, then added with concern, “Jiang Jiang, you’ve worked hard. Did Lu Jiming upset you? Eat more good food and make sure you’re well-nourished.”

"What kind of answer do you want from me?" Jiang Li asked, amused.

I knew exactly what that scoundrel was up to.

It's such a pity...

This scheme...

You made a mistake.

Ah Yan would never have imagined...

Instead of proving he wasn't the dumbest, he brought Jiang Li a promising talent.

If Ayan knew, would he be happy?

Will she still become withdrawn?

after all……

This might be Lu Jiming, the only one who surpasses Lu Shiyan.

"Of course I'm telling the truth." Lu Shiyan didn't realize the deeper meaning in Jiang Li's words and thought that Lu Jiming wasn't doing well in his studies. "If he's not doing well, you don't need to worry about his feelings. Just scold him if he needs to, and tell him not to think that he can do anything just because he has good grades at school!"

“This is something…” Jiang Li hesitated for a moment, but couldn’t help but laugh and said, “You should say it to yourself.”

Lu Shiyan: "..."

“Although Lu Jiming isn’t exceptionally talented, he’s quick to grasp things. Ah Yan, you’ve miscalculated,” Jiang Li said slowly.

Lu Shiyan: "..."

“If he can learn well, then Jiang Jiang, you should teach him properly.” Lu Shiyan seemed to have thought of something and continued, “Let him learn more, and once he understands more, he can really be brought in as your assistant.”

Lu Jiming was betrayed by his own uncle.

"You didn't even ask Lu Jiming if he was willing!" Jiang Li said irritably.

Lu Shiyan smiled, his tone resolute, "He will be willing."

Jiang Li: "..."

There's a sense that this statement carries a dangerous undertone.

"What do you mean, 'willing or not'?" Lu Jiming could hear Jiang Li speaking, but he couldn't hear his uncle's words, so he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"This is none of your business. Focus on learning your characters and ignore all this nonsense." Jiang Li rolled her eyes at Lu Jiming, telling him to study hard and not waste his talent.

"You all mentioned me, so why are you still bringing up other things?" Lu Jiming couldn't help but mutter.

“Your uncle said that the lunch he ordered for us has been delivered and that you should go down and get it,” Jiang Li said casually. “So I said he didn’t care whether you wanted to or not, he just gave the order.”

“If we need to go down and get it, of course I’ll go.” Lu Jiming didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with it; on the contrary, he felt it was only natural for him to go. “If I don’t go, do you expect me to go down?”

Can my future aunt run this errand?

Obviously not!

As he spoke, Lu Jiming walked towards the door.

As soon as he opened the door and walked towards the elevator, the elevator doors opened and the delivery guy came out.

The deliveryman looked at Lu Jiming, then at the food in his hand. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Lu?"

The man who made the reservation said that the meal was for Mr. Lu and Ms. Jiang. Since the man who came out was a young man, he was most likely Mr. Lu.

If not, it won't hurt to ask.

in the case of……

Wouldn't it be a huge hassle if we missed it?

"Huh?" Lu Jiming was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "Oh, that's me."

"Here's your food," the deliveryman said. "Enjoy your meal."

After saying that, the young man turned and left.

Lu Jiming returned home in a daze, carrying the food.

After placing the food on the table, he turned to Jiang Li and asked, "Tell me, what were you and my uncle talking about just now? The delivery guy brought the food to the door, it definitely wasn't what you're talking about!"

"Haven't you heard that curiosity killed the cat?" Jiang Li gave Lu Jiming a meaningful look. "I advise you... not to ask too many questions, or it may cause family conflicts."

Lu Jiming: "???"

What the heck is family conflict?
