Chapter 439 Xu Xinran's Hatred
Xu Xinran put the lunch box on the table and opened it: "Ah, sister-in-law, your cooking skills are really good. The dishes you cook look so appetizing. I will definitely go to your house for more meals in the future."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Jing Shen has eaten at your house quite often in the past. We'll bring you some delicious food from now on, but you might not have many opportunities to eat here. I'm going to night university starting today, so I don't have time to cook every day."
Xu Xinran was a little surprised when she heard Lin Xiaoxia say she was going to night school: "You got into night school?"
Lin Xiaoxia nodded: "Well, since you are still young, it is always good to learn more and have a degree."
Xu Xinran said, "Sister-in-law is really thoughtful. I didn't expect you to apply to night university. Although night university can't catch up with the regular enrollment, it is still a university. Sister-in-law is also very attentive to Brother Shen. This will bring you closer to Brother Shen."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingshen said, "Xiaoxia and I have never been distant. She goes to school just to do more of what she wants to do. I also hope that she can realize her dream."
Xu Xinran looked at the doting look in Lu Jingshen's eyes as he looked at Lin Xiaoxia, and smiled very forcedly: "I really didn't expect Brother Shen to be such a gentle person. I thought he was so serious with everyone."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "You are not the only one who said that. It seems that Jing Shen treats me differently from others."
Lu Jingshen looked at his watch and said to Xu Xinran, "I've brought you all the bedding and daily necessities. Please pack them yourself. I have to take your sister-in-law to school."
Xu Xinran looked at those things and said to Lu Jingshen, "Brother Shen, there are so many things. I'm afraid I can't pack them up by myself. Otherwise, let my sister-in-law go to school by herself. Can you help me pack them up? I know my sister-in-law is self-reliant and independent, unlike me who is useless."
Lu Jingshen's face changed slightly when he heard this: "My wife is self-reliant and independent, which is sensible of her, but it doesn't affect my pampering of her. You are not a child anymore, if you know you are useless, then learn. Do you intend to let others help you for the rest of your life?"
Lin Xiaoxia listened to Xu Xinran's words and found that this person was becoming more and more bitchy, but her husband's words made her feel a lot more at ease.
Xu Xinran looked at Lu Jingshen aggrievedly: "Brother Shen, you are not someone else, you are my brother, my father entrusted me to you, you can't just ignore me."
Lin Xiaoxia couldn't help but speak after hearing this: "Everyone has their own family. Even parents, brothers, sisters, wives and children have to be prioritized. We are entrusted by your father to take care of you, but everything doesn't have to revolve around you. We are helping you without affecting our own lives, understand?"
Xu Xinran looked at Lu Jingshen: "Brother Shen, you know me. I have always been with my parents and I don't have much ability to make a living. But I don't mean anything else. Why does my sister-in-law say it as if I have some intention?"
Lu Jingshen said to Xu Xinran, "It's best if you don't mean anything else. What your sister-in-law said is what I want to say. It's getting late. I have to send Xiaoxia to school. Think about what we said." After that, he pulled Lin Xiaoxia out of the dormitory.
Watching them leave, Xu Xinran stomped her feet in anger, feeling extremely resentful. The purpose of her coming here was to take revenge on Lu Jingshen, and she didn't want Lu Jingshen to have a good life. It seemed that she had to use her ultimate move.
At this moment, her mind recalled what happened during her freshman summer vacation, something that made her hate it for the rest of her life.
That evening when she returned home, she happened to hear Lu Jingshen and his father talking in the study. She happened to pass by and overheard a few words.
Professor Xu said to Lu Jingshen, "Jingshen, you know that I only have Xinran as my only daughter. She is too introverted. I don't feel safe leaving her to anyone else. If you agree to marry her in the future, I will arrange for you to stay in school tomorrow."
Lu Jingshen refused bluntly, "Professor Xu, I said I don't like Xu Xinran. Even if you give me the professorship, I still won't marry her."
Professor Xu asked in confusion, "Why? Xinran is so outstanding, what is it about her that you don't like?"
Lu Jingshen said, "I don't like her at all, whether it's her looks or her personality. You're her father, so naturally you think your daughter is good, but not everyone thinks she's good. Let's not talk about this anymore."
At that time, the introverted Xu Xinran was greatly stimulated by what Lu Jingshen said. For so many years, everyone praised her for her beauty, gentle personality, obedience and understanding, and no one had ever commented on her like this. After hearing Lu Jingshen speak so badly of her, she couldn't accept it in her heart. In a fit of anger, she ran to a nearby park and hid in a corner crying.
As a result, she was almost raped by a drunk gangster. After that, she had nightmares every night, her temperament changed drastically, and people around her began to dislike her. She thought all this was caused by Lu Jingshen, so she hated Lu Jingshen and vowed to make Lu Jingshen unhappy for the rest of his life.
She has been planning for these years to come to work for Lu Jingshen and then follow him forever. As long as he lives a good life, she will interfere with it. Anyway, if she is not happy, Lu Jingshen should not think about having an easy life either.
Of course, what she didn't know was that this was not the first time Professor Xu had talked to Lu Jingshen about this matter. At that time, Lu Jingshen deliberately spoke more harshly in order to make Professor Xu give up.
However, after saying this, Lu Jingshen tried his best to comfort Professor Xu, helping him to untie the knot in his heart and understand that he could not protect Xu Xinran for the rest of his life, and that Xu Xinran's life should not be completely arranged by Professor Xu. He also had to give Xu Xinran space to grow and let her have the life she can choose.
And Lu Jingshen also promised Professor Xu at that time that he would take care of Xu Xinran like his sister.
Unfortunately, Xu Xinran didn’t know all this. She just heard what she didn’t want to hear and ran away. As a result, she almost got into trouble, so her heart was full of hatred.
Lin Xiaoxia naturally didn’t know about this. She went downstairs, sighed, and got into the car without saying anything.
Lu Jingshen also got in the car, drove for a while, and then stopped by the roadside: "Is my wife angry?"
Lin Xiaoxia nodded: "This person has no sense of boundaries. I don't like him."
Lu Jingshen said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. I'll try to let my colleagues handle her affairs from now on. She and I are not blood-related siblings, so it's impossible for me to interfere in everything without avoiding suspicion."
Lin Xiaoxia still had no doubts about Lu Jingshen's words: "Well, as long as you understand, some things I say mean something different."
Lu Jingshen said, "I understand." After that, he looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late. I'll take you to school quickly." Then he drove to the school.
When Lin Xiaoxia arrived, it was already past 6:20 and class would start in a few minutes.
Fortunately, Liang Fang and the others had saved a seat for her, so she quickly ran over to the three girls.
After they sat down, the bell rang. Lin Xiaoxia briefly explained that she was late due to some family matters, so she took out her books and prepared for class. The first class, a professional course, was also early. The teacher's name was Dai. He introduced himself to the students and began the lecture.
