Mu Baiyu nodded and took charge of escorting Old Lady Mu out.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked back at Mu Baicheng, "Dad..."
"Don’t bother with him," Old Lady Mu said with a stern face, "He will figure it out on his own."
People have to grow up.
Mu Baicheng was no exception.
As a mother, Old Lady Mu had always known where her son’s weaknesses lay.
Mu Xiaoxiao sighed and didn’t say anything more.
Lu Family.
Lu Ye was sitting at the living room table, writing something with his head down.
He looked serious.
Grandma Lu walked in from outside and seeing this scene, asked curiously, "Sansan, what are you doing?"
"Writing something," Lu Ye answered.
Writing something?
Could it be a business plan?
Hearing this, Grandma Lu didn’t think much of it.
"Do you eat Jiabao Fruit?" Grandma Lu continued, "Our garden has produced a lot of Jiabao Fruit."
"No," he replied.
Grandma Lu gave him a look, "Fine, if you don’t want any, I’ll eat them myself."
After eating several Jiabao Fruits, Grandma Lu seemed to recall something, "I’ll bring some to Xiao Wu later."
This year’s plentiful rain made the fruits especially sweet, and Lin Wu would surely love them.
Xiao Wu.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ye was momentarily stunned.
He pondered.
Even Lu Lingli knew Lin Wu...
So.
The lifesaver Grandma Lu kept mentioning, and the world’s number one beauty Xiao Wu, could they be Lin Wu?
"Lu Da deceiver!"
Just then, Lu Lingli suddenly dashed over from the side and smacked Lu Ye hard.
Lu Ye frowned imperceptibly and turned to look at Lu Lingli, "Miss Lu, have you ever heard of the saying ’scaring someone can scare them to death’?"
Scaring someone to death?
Lu Lingli squinted her eyes, and subconsciously felt something was off with Lu Ye today.
He had trained in combat, hence his senses were much sharper than an ordinary person’s.
Usually, he would have sensed her coming from miles away—how could she have scared him today?
What was happening?
Glancing down, Lu Lingli was taken aback by the book under Lu Ye’s hand...
If she wasn’t mistaken, that was a high school chemistry problem.
She had assumed Lu Ye was working on some business plan.
But to her astonishment, he was actually solving chemistry problems!
Lu Lingli’s face filled with confusion, "Lu Da deceiver, are you planning to take this year’s college entrance exam?"
"Why not?" said Lu Ye, his expression unchanged.
Lu Ye had suddenly become so earnest, Lu Lingli couldn’t grasp what he was thinking—as he was always unconventional, there was nothing he couldn’t do.
"Really?" Lu Lingli pressed on.
Lu Ye didn’t speak, just continued with his problems.
Lu Lingli peeked down and suddenly realized something was amiss, "Hold on, Lu Da deceiver, this handwriting doesn’t look like yours."
Handwriting often reflects the person.
Lu Ye’s writing was proud and forceful.
Although the handwriting for the problems was very neat and distinctive, it evidently differed greatly from Lu Ye’s usual script.
As if suddenly realizing something, Lu Lingli’s eyes widened, "Lu Da deceiver, don’t tell me you’re doing someone else’s homework?"
There didn’t seem to be anyone who could have Lu Ye help with homework.
Wait!
This person...
Couldn’t be Lin Wu, could it?
After all, Lin Wu seemed to be the only high school student around Lu Ye.
It looked like Lu Da deceiver was really falling in love.
"I’m not as free as you," Lu Ye flatly denied.
"Is that so?" Lu Lingli looked at Lu Da deceiver with not-so-good intentions.
Lu Ye looked away and continued with the problems.
Lu Lingli sat opposite him, resting her chin on her hands, "Lu Da deceiver, let me set you up with someone."
"I don’t need it," Lu Ye’s voice was a bit cold.
Lu Lingli continued, "You rejected it even without asking who I’m setting you up with?"
Lu Ye kept silent.
"Lu Da deceiver, ask! Come on, ask me," she prompted.
Lu Ye was very exasperated, "I don’t need a partner, is that answer okay for you?" frёeωebɳovel.com
What was the difference between Lu Lingli’s actions and forcing a tiger to eat grass?
He simply had no such need.
Lu Lingli wasn’t offended, "Do you know I’m very close with Sister Lin? How about I set you up with her?"
"My relationship with the kid is purely platonic; don’t make it more complicated than it is," he said.
He admitted that he felt something special for Lin Wu.
But...
It was merely the affection between siblings.
Because Lin Wu shared a similar past experience with him.
As an older brother, he wanted to protect Lin Wu.
In the same way, he was also protecting the younger version of himself.
Lu Lingli laughed, "You only get one chance, Lu Da deceiver; I advise you to think it over."
"Not just once - give me ten chances and I still won’t want it," he retorted.
Lu Lingli stood up from her chair, "Some people, when given the opportunity, don’t know how to seize it. Just wait for the regret!"
