Chapter 78 Promise to Keep the Money and Tickets
"Why?" Liu Chan was rejected, her face looking very unhappy. "It's the first morning of the Lunar New Year, how can you not tell good from bad? I let you live with me because I think highly of you."
Do you think highly of him? Lu Jingheng smiled and said, "Thank you! I don't need your respect. It's useless for anyone in Liujia Village to invite me except Bai Yangfan. Do you know why? Because no one can cook as delicious dishes as hers."
Besides, if you invite me to your house to eat, I can’t eat what you eat. My wife’s cooking is to my taste, and your cooking is definitely not to my taste.”
When Liu Chan came in just now, she had already seen the money and bills on the table, a huge stack. This Lu Zhiqing really had a lot of good stuff in his hands. If she could trick him into giving her all his money and bills, then her pockets would be filled up.
Even though Lu Jingheng confronted her directly, she still refused to give up: "How could that be? My cooking is definitely no worse than Yang Fan's. How can she, a little girl, even know what cooking is?"
Bai Yangfan glanced at Liu Chan indifferently: "..."You are doing this to make money, don't you care about your dignity? If I wasn't annoyed by the harassment of Lu Jingheng, that bastard, how could I allow you to keep stepping on me?
"You're wrong." Lu Jingheng saw Bai Yangfan frowning slightly, with a cold look in her eyes, and knew that she was unhappy. "Just because you're older doesn't mean you can cook, nor does it mean I like your cooking. Anyway, I won't be eating at your house, so give up!"
The words were final. It was impossible for Liu Chan to get the money from Lu Jingheng's pocket.
After all, this Lu Zhiqing is someone that even Secretary Ye wants to curry favor with. If you don't look at anything else, you can tell by the fact that he works when he wants to and doesn't work when he doesn't want to.
This guy is not someone you can easily mess with. He clearly disliked Bai Yangfan before, but for some reason he fell in love with him again and insisted on staying in the Bai family.
I stayed here last night. Even though I slept with Qihang, it still made me feel uncomfortable.
Didn't Bai Yangfan say he wanted to break up with this man? How come they were together again after breaking up?
Liu Chan despised Bai Yangfan's behavior, but things were different now. No matter how much she despised him, she dared not do anything to her niece. She had suffered at her hands more than once, and if she didn't learn her lesson, then her life would be in vain.
"Okay then! Since you don't like the food I cook, forget it." Liu Chan went home with a gloomy face, feeling bored.
She had to leave. He had already said he didn't like her anymore, so what else could she do? She was turned away early in the morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and she was furious.
But who can be blamed for this?
It wasn't like Lu Jingheng had come to her house a long time ago; she had come on her own, so even if she disagreed, she couldn't do anything to him. Liu Chan had originally thought that Lu Zhiqing was just a young man, and that a few nice words would seal the deal.
Who knew that he was so determined that he would not share with any other family in Liujia Village except Bai Yangfan's.
It was obvious that he wanted to please her, but that woman didn't know what was good for her and refused to agree. She was so stupid.
As soon as Liu Chan left, Lu Jingheng took out the money and bills and placed them on the table: "Yang Fan! Please keep them for me. My wealth has been exposed. I'm worried that someone will get their hands on it and try to find the educated youth camp."
After saying this, without caring whether Bai Yangfan would agree or not, he went to the stove to light the fire and heat up the rice cake soup in the pot.
Seeing that there was not much soup left, he scooped two more shovels of rice into the soup to heat it up.
Qihang took a few pieces of the uneaten rice cake from the bowl and said, "I can't finish it. I'll give you some!"
Bai Yangfan didn't say anything. His younger brother knew that it was a good thing to repay a favor, and he would never be a heartless and ungrateful person in the future.
After heating up the soup and rice, Lu Jingheng put it in a bowl, brought it to the table and sat opposite Bai Yangfan, eating it with relish, without any self-awareness at all.
He didn't care whether people liked him or not, he just focused on eating.
After finishing the meal, he saw Bai Yangfan put down his chopsticks, with half a bowl of rice cake still left in his bowl. He didn't care about anything and asked with a smile: "Yangfan! Are you full? Don't want any more?"
Knowing that the man wanted to eat, Bai Yangfan said "hmm" lightly, indicating that he was done.
Lu Jingheng pulled the bowl in front of him, not showing any disdain: "Then give all of this to me! How can I leave such delicious rice cakes alone?"
Seeing him really eat a piece at a time, and slurping down all the leftovers, her heart softened a little. She looked at the money and bills on the table and said lightly, "I can keep them for you, but you have to remember how much money and bills you brought with you.
Anyway, I won't embezzle your money. If your memory fails or there's a mistake with the money, that's your own business. Don't ask me for compensation, and I won't compensate you.
Hearing that she was willing to keep the money and tickets for him, Lu Jingheng's eyebrows lit up: "Of course, I know exactly how much I have. Don't worry! I won't blame you. If there is more or less, it's my own money. It has nothing to do with you."
Bai Yangfan raised his eyebrows: "..." You won't blame me? Haven't you blamed me enough? It's just like the nature of a dog-skin plaster, once it sticks, it can't be shaken off.
After finishing the meal, Lu Jingheng went to wash the dishes with a beaming face. As long as Bai Yangfan was willing to have a relationship with him, he could slowly plan to form a partnership with him later.
The snow outside had stopped, the sun was out, and the sky was overcast. Qihang said he was going to Liangliang's brother's house, so Bai Yangfan immediately filled his pockets with sunflower seeds and peanuts and told him to take them out for Liangliang and Yingying.
Lu Jingheng watched with a smile on his face, and deliberately imitated Qihang to open the pocket on his clothes: "I want some too, give me some too."
It was originally just a joke, thinking that Bai Yangfan would not give it to her, but she just glared at herself and really grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into his pocket.
"That's really nice of you! I'll have work to do this morning."
Bai Yangfan was not a fool, and he immediately understood the meaning of his words. What the dog man meant by having work to do was to peel melon seeds for her.
"I don't need it, go back now."
Lu Jingheng was not angry either, still smiling and nodding: "Okay, I'll peel it and bring it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the rice on the ground and went back.
Bai Qihang followed behind him, skipping and jumping towards Liangliang's house. Ergouzi saw him and wanted to follow.
Bai Yangfan instructed, "Set sail! Walk slowly and don't get your clothes dirty."
I didn't hear my brother's voice, but I heard Er Gouzi's voice: "Don't worry! Big sister! I will take good care of my brother Qihang."
With Er Gouzi following him, Bai Yangfan felt relieved. Looking at the clean and tidy kitchen, he felt that the dog man was actually very useful.
With him around, I don't have to do much housework.
I just don't know how long this type of behavior can last.
Lu Jingheng: “······” A lifetime, really, I’m not lying to you, it’s a lifetime.
