Chapter 715 Look at how insightful Mr. Bai is
After Lu Yuanqiu asked the question, the living room fell into silence.
The expressions on everyone's faces were wonderful. Even Bai Qingxia opened her eyes wide, looking very surprised.
Li Bowen obviously knew Ruan Yueru, and considering the basketball incident, it was not surprising that Lu Yuanqiu linked the two together.
But before this, they had never imagined how Li Bowen from No. 10 Middle School and Ruan Yueru from No. 7 Middle School could know each other. Was it such a coincidence?
If that’s the case... can we understand that the girl Li Bowen has a crush on is actually Ruan Yueru?
Cao Shuang fell silent, his expression wooden. Lu Yuanqiu glanced at his good brother's face and repeated to Li Bowen, who was also stunned, "Is it Ruan Yueru?"
"Yes... yes." Li Bowen's throat moved, feeling a bit overwhelmed as he stripped naked and was being stared at. He then asked in surprise, "So you two know each other? No wonder she was so sure I couldn't beat you at basketball... So, are you two familiar with each other?"
Cao Shuang's eyes were always fixed on the "split into two" Trojan horse. Since Li Bowen was so sure that the other Trojan horse was with Ruan Yueru, it felt like this Trojan horse was the only token of their love. This judgment made Cao Shuang's mind a little confused.
Lu Yuanqiu: "Indeed, we are very familiar with each other... and we are both from No. 7 Middle School, so it's not surprising that we know each other."
Li Bowen: "But you are not in the same grade."
"But we played a ball game together."
"Just because you've played a game doesn't mean you have to be familiar with it, right?"
"That's because..."
This time it was Lu Yuanqiu's turn to stop talking.
He turned to look at Cao Shuang, with an embarrassment on his face as if to say, "Brother, how should I explain this to this kid?" The reason why they were so familiar with Ruan Yueru was because of the relationship between Cao Shuang and Ruan Yueru.
But if Cao Shuang had been more motivated and confirmed his relationship with Ruan Yueru, Lu Yuanqiu would have been able to boldly say: Because she is my brother's girlfriend!
"Why..." Li Bowen unconsciously became alert and asked with his keen sense of smell.
He was looking at Cao Shuang.
"Ruan Yueru and I are good friends." Cao Shuang answered readily, "How about you? How did you get to know her?"
Li Bowen: "We knew each other when we were little. We were in the same class in elementary and junior high school, and our parents are in touch."
"Childhood sweethearts."
"uh-huh."
"Does she know that you like her?"
"Puff!" Li Bowen nearly choked on his own saliva. His face flushed as he looked at Cao Shuang: "Your change of topic really caught me off guard."
Zheng Yifeng put down the photo. He also felt that the topic had changed so quickly. Wasn't today supposed to be a meeting between nephew and uncle? How did it turn into a meeting between rivals in love?
He and Su Miaomiao walked to the sofa together and sat in a row with Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia.
The four of them looked at the two men like a crowd of spectators.
Lu Yuanqiu glanced at the clock: "It's still early, let's chat. When did you start liking her?"
Cao Shuang also looked like he was listening.
Li Bowen sat quietly for a moment, his neck drooping, scratching his head. "It's mainly because she's changed so much recently. She's gone from a tomboy to... becoming more feminine. It feels weird..."
Lu Yuanqiu: "Strange?"
Li Bowen touched his nose, a little embarrassed: "It's cute."
Lu Yuanqiu raised his hand to cover his mouth subtly, hiding the smile that was spreading across his face.
Bai Qingxia turned her head and glanced at him.
Lu Yuanqiu seemed to have sensed something and became serious. He performed some breathing exercises in front of Bai Qingxia.
In his opinion, Ruan Yueru must have changed because she had someone she liked, but it was not a good time to bring it up. Both Li Bowen and Ruan Yueru were about to take the college entrance examination. If this kid was impatient and went to Ruan Yueru to get to the bottom of things, it would affect both of them.
"Xiao Wen, the meal is almost ready, let your friends get ready to eat."
The nanny came out of the kitchen and shouted.
"Okay! Let's eat first, everyone."
In the restaurant, Cao Shuang, who seemed to be sitting next to Li Bowen, deliberately moved around and sat diagonally opposite Li Bowen. Lu Yuanqiu could only squeeze closer to Bai Qingxia.
Li Bowen glanced at the empty seat next to him, then looked up at the opposite side. He was a little confused, but he didn't care too much. He immediately picked up the bowl and ate without any airs of a host.
"By the way...nephew, did you know that my sister died in the United States?" Li Bowen had food stuffed in his mouth and his words were a little unclear.
Zheng Yifeng narrowed his eyes slightly: "I know."
He thought that his grandparents' version of events was also about the Lucheng car accident... It seemed that this was just a random excuse made up by his father, and Zheng Yifeng actually believed it for more than ten years.
"Do you know how your sister died?" Zheng Yifeng asked tentatively.
Li Bowen didn't think this was a topic that shouldn't be discussed in public. He nodded directly, "I know. It's the flu. How strange! Is the medical care there that bad?"
Is this the second theory that has emerged?
Lu Yuanqiu and Zheng Yifeng both felt doubtful.
If the "murder" in the letter is true, then Li Bowen obviously does not know the truth.
Lu Yuanqiu had a lot of questions in his mind, but it would be better if Zheng Yifeng raised them.
Zheng Yifeng: "Did your parents tell you this?"
"Um."
"All right."
It seems that Li Bowen can't get any useful information here.
The main purpose of coming here this time was to confirm two things. The first was to ask my grandparents if they knew the real cause of my mother's death.
The second thing was to find out from my grandparents where my mother was in the United States and whether there was anyone who could contact her.
After finishing their meal, Lu Yuanqiu and the other two naturally felt it was not appropriate for them to stay here and wait, so they said goodbye to Zheng Yifeng and left Li Bowen’s house.
Outside the community.
"What's wrong? You look listless." Lu Yuanqiu patted Cao Shuang's shoulder and said with a smile, "Li Bowen is secretly in love with her, not like he's already dating Ruan Yueru."
Cao Shuang sighed and squatted on the side of the road: "I always feel that they are more suitable for each other. They are so handsome, and they are well matched. They are childhood sweethearts and have been inseparable since childhood... Damn, I am a nobody."
"If I had met a guy who liked the same girl as me before, I would have told him in person. But this time, I couldn't say it at all. I felt like a joke."
His tone became more and more lonely.
After hearing this, Bai Qingxia also squatted down on the other side, as if she had put herself in the situation.
Lu Yuanqiu, who was standing in the middle, looked around and could only squat down. The three of them squatted on the side of the road outside the community, and the green leaves above their heads rustled in the wind.
"Actually, you just need to make sure that Ruan Yueru likes you." Bai Qingxia suddenly raised her mouth from her folded arms and said.
Cao Shuang turned his head, and Lu Yuanqiu looked at him. Feeling that he was in the way, Lu Yuanqiu leaned back, revealing Bai Qingxia's pure and beautiful profile.
"Look how insightful Mr. Bai is." Lu Yuanqiu pouted.
