Chapter 128 They were actually getting engaged.
Grandpa Xia is old. If he were young, his mouth could have been enough to drive anyone crazy in front of his father!
He realized that neither his son nor his granddaughter wanted to do things his way.
Grandpa Xia took the water glass that Tang Susu handed him, took a sip, put the glass down, took a deep breath, and said, "Let me be clear from the start, I want Song Heng and Zhenzhen to get engaged."
Xia Yu: "No way!"
Grandpa Xia: "Why can't it work?"
Xia Yu said, "Arranged marriages are no longer popular."
Grandpa Xia: "Yes, if it weren't for the arranged marriage, you might not have had the chance to get married."
Xia Yu's eyes twitched.
Xia Zhen really didn't understand. If her grandfather wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Song family, Song Heng was obviously interested in Tang Susu, so why was he so focused on getting Song Heng engaged to her?
Wouldn't Song Heng and Tang Susu have a better chance of getting together?
Xia Zhen looked at Song Heng.
Song Heng was also looking at her, but he didn't step forward to refuse as Xia Zhen had suggested. No one but him knew what he was thinking.
In short, he was probably just thinking about how much benefit he could gain if he married into the Xia family.
Xia Zhen frowned and took two steps forward. "I disagree."
Old Master Xia seemed determined. He said calmly, "I am still the head of the Xia family, and I am still the chairman of the company. I still call the shots in the Xia family."
Xia Yu only said one thing: "Zhenzhen cannot get engaged to Song Heng."
Grandpa Xia calmly said, "Unless there is a reason that can convince me, then there is no point in discussing anything."
At that moment, a father and son walked in.
The young man was dressed in a suit and tie, gentle and refined, with the air of a young man with white hair, and rarely smiled.
Lu Qi smiled and said, "Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way, we are late. Did we miss something good? Why is it so lively?"
Xia Yu looked at Old Master Xia and said, "Zhenzhen has a reason why she cannot get engaged to Song Heng."
Lu Qi looked at his son beside him, his eyes sparkling with amusement.
Lu Jin's expression turned slightly cold as he caught Xia Zhen's surprised look.
Xia Zhen covered her forehead with one hand, trying to avoid Lu Jin's gaze. Why did her dear boyfriend have to come at this time!
God is my witness, she never intended to cheat on her husband!
Tang Susu and Song Heng both focused their attention on Lu Jin. Lu Jin had a unique appearance, and once they had seen him, they would never forget him.
In short, the atmosphere among those present is very strange, with everyone looking at each other.
Grandpa Xia didn't entertain his friend for the moment, but stared at Xia Yu and asked, "What's the reason?"
Xia Yu stood up, straightened his suit jacket, and said slowly, "Zhenzhen has someone she likes."
Everyone looked at Xia Yu.
Grandpa Xia grunted twice, "Who?"
It was as if he was saying, "I want to see what kind of nonsense Xia Yu, this unfilial son, can come up with."
Xia Yu stretched out her hand and pointed to the person standing at the door, "Him."
Lu Qi smiled and pointed at himself, "Me?"
Xia Yu swept his cold eyes over her and said, "Get out of my way."
Lu Qi obediently moved a few steps to the side, and the only person left standing at the door was a white-haired boy.
Xia Yu's finger landed firmly on Lu Jin. "Lu Jin, Lu Qi's son, is the one who is in love with Zhenzhen."
Lu Jin neither dodged nor avoided the question; he calmly nodded, "Yes."
Xia Zhen's eyes widened. When did her father become so perceptive?
Xia Yu thought to himself, "If I just randomly point to Lu Jin out of the blue, won't these people be stunned by my crazy move?"
Fortunately, Lu Jin is a smart kid and knows how to cooperate with him.
Xia Yu glanced at the people present without showing any emotion.
Grandpa Xia frowned, his eyes filled with suspicion.
Zhenzhen looked surprised, as if to say, "When did she and Lu Jin fall in love?"
Xia Yu knew that Lu Jin was not good enough for Xia Zhen, but there was nothing he could do but make his daughter suffer at this time.
Lu Jin remained calm.
Song Heng looked at Lu Jin quietly, without revealing any expression.
Tang Susu had an expression that said, "I knew it."
Finally, look at Lu Qi. He covered his mouth with one hand, looking at Lu Jin and then at Xia Zhen in surprise. He couldn't believe that his son and Xia Zhen were in love!
Xia Yu winked at Lu Qi.
In special circumstances, Old Thief Lu should cooperate.
Lu Qi caught Xia Yu's gaze, and he cleverly suppressed his surprise, instead nodding calmly at Xia Yu.
Playing along is no problem!
Grandpa Xia looked at Lu Jin suspiciously, "Brother Lu, is this your son?"
"Yes, that's my son, Lu Jin," Lu Qi said with a smile. "Isn't he adorable?"
Xia Yu walked over and patted Lu Jin on the shoulder. "Yes, this kid is very good. I like him very much too."
Lu Jin: "...Thank you, Uncle Xia."
Song Heng frowned slightly.
When did he become Lu Qi's son?
Tang Susu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this Lu Jin was not the Lu Jin she knew when she was a child.
But didn't Lu Qi say last time that his son's name was Chang'an?
Could Chang'an be Lu Jin's nickname?
Others may not know, but Old Master Xia knew that Lu Qi's son had been switched. Looking at Lu Jin, he felt that this child seemed to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, and should be a child who could do great things.
Out of respect for Lu Qi, Old Master Xia asked with a somewhat kind tone, "Lu Jin, do you know our Zhenzhen?"
Xia Yu stood next to Lu Jin, radiating immense pressure, and said to Lu Jin with a meaningful look, "Lu Jin, just tell the truth."
The implication is that even if you're an honest kid, you still have to make up some nonsense for me today!
Lu Jin glanced at Xia Yu silently before answering Grandpa Xia's question, "Zhenzhen and I were deskmates and neighbors for a while. Zhenzhen and I would often discuss study problems together after school."
Xia Yu thought to himself, "This kid really knows how to make things up."
Grandpa Xia was skeptical.
Lu Qi chimed in from the side, "That happened before I took Lu Jin back to the Lu family. Lu Jin was in poor health and received a lot of care from Zhenzhen. They often went to and from school together, and gradually they developed feelings for each other."
Xia Yu glanced over and thought, "This old scoundrel Lu is indeed a scoundrel; he can tell lies one after another."
Zhenzhen goes to and from school with his son, so why doesn't he mention that his son and Zhenzhen are already engaged?
Lu Jin lowered his eyes slightly, meeting Xia Zhen's gaze. He pursed his lips and said softly, "Actually, Uncle Xia has already been talking to my father about my engagement with Zhenzhen, right, Uncle Xia?"
Xia Yu remained silent for a long time, and he wanted to stay silent forever, but everyone was watching him.
He was caught in a dilemma, so he could only force a smile and nod, "Is that so...?"
