Hearing this, Bai Lu’s face changed color.
Driven out?
How is that possible!
"Xianxian is not that kind of person," Bai Lu said.
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingli asked, "Then why did you come back so soon?"
She, as a mother who always cared about face, wouldn’t admit it if she had been driven out by the Zhang family, even if she was embarrassed.
Bai Lu glanced at Lu Lingli, then continued, "It’s because Xianxian was feeling a bit unwell, so I came back early."
Feeling unwell?
Even if it was true, they couldn’t just send a guest away like that, could they?
Bai Lu couldn’t be bothered to explain any further to her daughter, for people’s prejudices are truly terrifying. Under the influence of Grandma Lu, Lu Lingli had already formed an unfavorable impression of Zhang Xianxian. Bai Lu knew that no matter how much she argued, Lu Lingli would not believe her own words.
So, it was fruitless to say more.
Bai Lu then said, "I’m hanging up now."
With that, Bai Lu hung up the phone.
Lu Lingli went to the kitchen, intending to help Lin Guixiang with wrapping dumplings.
However, Lin Guixiang pushed her toward the living room. "Lingli, we and your grandma have already wrapped the dumplings, no need for your help. You can play in the living room. Oh, that machine on the coffee table is a game console Xiao Wu bought. It’s said to be quite fun to play; you can give it a try."
"Okay, Aunt Lin," Lu Lingli nodded.
She originally had no interest in games, but hearing that it was Lin Wu who bought the console, she wanted to give it a try.
After all, Lin Wu didn’t seem like a girl who would play games.
If she played it, the game must be exceptional.
Lu Lingli turned on the game console.
The console was directly connected to the TV, and as soon as she pressed the power button, the game screen appeared on the TV. freewebnøvel.coɱ
This was a survival game.
One could choose to continue or start over with a new game. Since it was Lu Lingli’s first time playing, she naturally chose to start anew.
She had thought that survival games were all more or less the same.
Unexpectedly, the moment the game started, Lu Lingli was astonished; the game graphics were exquisite, with animals and plants lifelike, giving a sense of immersion without the need for VR glasses.
Approaching thirty, Lu Lingli was playing such a high-end game for the first time.
Moreover, the content of the game was incredibly realistic and addictive. She was still reluctant to stop playing when Lin Guixiang called for dinner.
Lu Lingli quickly finished her meal and sat back on the sofa to continue with the game.
Two hours later, she put down the game controller, took a photo and searched for the same console on Taobao, but she didn’t find any like it, nor could she find the name of the game.
This game was starting to seem a bit strange to her!
Lu Lingli frowned slightly.
Just then, footsteps were heard from outside.
Next came Lin Wu’s voice.
"Grandma Jin."
"Xiao Wu!" Seeing Lin Wu again, Grandma Lu hugged her excitedly.
Lu Lingli put her phone away and walked over to Lin Wu. "Xiao Wu, you’re back."
"Sister Lu," Lin Wu greeted politely.
Today, Lin Wu was dressed in a beige trench coat, paired with wide-leg trousers and white sneakers, looking both stylish and attractive.
Lu Lingli couldn’t help but admire.
Indeed a natural clothes hanger!
Anything she wore looked good.
After chatting with Lin Wu for a bit, Lu Lingli shifted the conversation to the game console.
"Xiao Wu, where did you buy this game console? Why can’t I find the same one on Taobao?"
Lin Wu replied, "This game console is not on the market yet. Sister Lu, if you like it, I can give this one to you."
The game console was something Lin Wu had made on a whim when bored, without much thought. After it was completed, she just placed it in the living room, so guests could play with it if they felt bored. So far, only Lin Guodong had tried it.
"No need, no need," Lu Lingli immediately waved her hands. She couldn’t just take what others liked. "I’d rather wait until it’s on the market to buy it."
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Grandma Lu suggested it was time to leave.
Lin Guixiang brought over two sets of the latest Hsi-Shih outfits from the Beauty Chant collection. "Aunt Jin, please take these with you."
Seeing the latest Hsi-Shih outfits, Lu Lingli’s eyes lit up.
She had wanted to buy something from this series for a long time, but had never managed to get it.
She hadn’t expected Lin Guixiang to be so generous as to give them away.
Grandma Lu said with a smile, "Guixiang, then I won’t be polite with you."
"Aunt Jin, you don’t have to be polite with me at all," Lin Guixiang replied, then continued, "By the way, has Aunt Fang been to Qing City recently?"
She liked Grandma Lu very much, and she had a strong fondness for Fang Youling.
It was a peculiar kind of fondness.
Especially for Fang Youling, whenever Lin Guixiang saw Fang Youling’s face or thought of her, she felt an inexplicable sense of comfort and kinship.
"No," Grandma Lu shook her head.
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang felt somewhat disappointed but didn’t inquire further.
