"Brother?" Zhu Yaowu was also surprised to receive a call from his elder brother. His first instinct was to realize that something had happened at home. "What happened at home?"
"Everything is fine at home." Zhu Weidong nodded.
Hmm? Zhu Yaowu was even more confused, "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Zhu Weidong asked casually, "How was school today?"
"Very good." Zhu Yaowu replied, but in his heart he was thinking, didn't you come here during the day?
"Is my visit today not causing any inconvenience?" Zhu Weidong paused, "To you guys."
Zhu Yaowu narrowed his eyes slightly and leaned on the table. "It's not a big inconvenience, but your coming here has a big impact on my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law is also a school beauty. Today, everyone in the school is talking about the sophomore school beauty hugging a boy on campus."
Zhu Weidong was satisfied, with a comfortable look on his face. He looked up and saw his wife holding their daughter up, and said calmly to the other end of the phone, "It's okay."
Zhu Yaowu wanted to ask a few more questions, but found that the phone had been hung up.
He laughed, hung up the phone, put his hands in his pockets and went back to the dormitory.
On the other side of the compound, Zhu Weidong took his daughter in his arms, bent down and kissed her, causing his daughter to giggle.
As for who he had just called, Ji Ling did not ask.
At night, the couple was lying in bed, and Ji Ling heard Zhu Weidong talking to her in a daze.
"Are you the school beauty?"
"Campus belle? What campus belle?"
Seeing his wife's confused mind, Zhu Weidong smiled and asked, "Will my going to school today affect you?"
"Won't."
"That's good." Zhu Weidong hugged her again, "I'll be staying at home for a long time this time. I can invite your friends to come over when I'm free."
Ji Ling was in a daze. She felt that the voices were in her ears and seemed to be coming from far away, but she couldn't even hear clearly what was being said.
The next day before she went to school, Zhu Weidong carried his daughter to the door and said, "Last night you said you would like to invite Rong Junjie to your home. When do you think we can arrange it? Tonight or tomorrow?"
Ji Ling turned around and asked, "What did I say?"
Zhu Weidong nodded, "You said that before you went to bed last night."
Ji Ling wondered if she had said those words.
"Not inviting anymore?"
Ji Ling came back to her senses, "No, I don't remember saying that at all. How about this, I'll find time to call Rong Junjie and ask him if he has time? Then we can make arrangements."
Zhu Weidong smiled, took his daughter's hand, and waved to his wife, "Let's say goodbye to mom."
Ji Ling leaned over and kissed her daughter. She stood up and saw Zhu Weidong turning his face towards her. Ji Ling also kissed him on the face and then left as her husband and daughter watched her go.
Zhu Yaowu and her family have not returned. She came back with her husband and daughter yesterday, so she has to take the bus to school today.
Before she reached the bus stop, a car stopped beside her. The window rolled down, revealing Wei Kun's smiling face.
Ji Ling raised her eyebrows, "What a coincidence."
"Going to school? It's on the way, get in the car."
Ji Ling didn't hesitate and got in the car and sat down.
Wei Kun loves to talk. There is never a dull moment when Ji Ling is alone with him. He can bring up topics and lead people along unconsciously.
Ji Ling had something else to ask him, "What's going on between you and Luo Li?"
It would be strange if Ji Ling believed him. "I heard from Weidong that Luo Li came to see you a few days ago. Because of you, she and my eldest brother broke up and didn't even want to get married."
"That only means that she is someone who is trying to climb the social ladder, and has nothing to do with me." Wei Kun said with a smile, "So you should thank me, if it weren't for me, how could you have figured out what kind of person she is."
Seeing his shameless look, Ji Ling smiled and said, "You are right. I really have to thank you."
All the way to school, when getting off the car, Ji Ling said to him, "Weidong is back, let's go to his house for dinner tonight."
"It's settled."
After the agreement was reached, Wei Kun drove away.
Ji Ling was also walking towards the school, so she naturally didn't notice Luo Li hiding in the corner again.
Luo Li happened to pass by today. She saw Wei Kun's car first. She was surprised and wanted to go forward, but then she saw Ji Ling getting out of the car, so she stepped back.
Watching the two of them talking and laughing from a distance, she pursed her lips.
She had been looking for the person for so long but couldn't find him. Such a difficult task seemed so easy to Ji Ling.
Is this fate? Ji Ling is also very ordinary. She can be friends with Wei Kun only because she married well.
Yes, married well.
That's why I have everything.
When Ji Ling was in class, the teacher called her out and said someone was looking for her.
After going out, seeing Luo Li in the corridor, Ji Ling's face turned cold, "Luo Li, I'm in class."
"Ji Ling, I won't take up too much of your time. I just have a few questions for you."
Ji Ling said, "Go ahead."
"Let's go to another place." Seeing Ji Ling frowning, Luo Li hurriedly said, "Let's go downstairs."
Ji Ling checked her cell phone and saw that the get out of class was only a few minutes away from ending, so she and Luo Li went outside the teaching building.
"Ji Ling, I know you have never liked me. Can I ask why?" Luo Li asked directly as they stopped at the steps going downstairs. "Actually, when we first met in the ward, I could feel that you didn't like me."
Ji Ling said, "I don't know how you feel, but I'm not familiar with you, and I don't like you or not. It doesn't matter to me whether you're dating my eldest brother, good or bad. Besides, I don't even know you, so why should I hate you?"
Speaking of this, Ji Ling found it ridiculous, "Is this what you came to me to ask?"
Luo Li pursed his lips, "You asked Wei Kun to do that, right?"
Ji Ling was puzzled, "What did I ask Wei Kun to do?"
She really didn't understand.
Luo Li was unable to speak, but seeing that Ji Ling had been pretending to be confused, and thinking that she had come to him, he simply threw away his dignity and said directly, "Let Wei Kun seduce me."
Ji Ling asked calmly, "Why did I let Wei Kun do this?"
Luo Li bit his lip, "You don't like me."
Ji Ling shook her head. "I just said that it doesn't matter whether I like you or not. You have been catching on to the wrong point, blaming me for the situation that you and my elder brother have reached today. You never thought that you wanted to climb up the social ladder, and finally fell into the trap set by the children of high-ranking officials."
Luo Li's face turned pale, and Ji Ling understood which words hurt Luo Li.
"Wei Kun is a playboy. I'm also curious as to why he would want to play with you. Maybe he just likes to see women like you who want to climb up the social ladder succumb to him."
Luo Li gritted his teeth and said, "Climbing up the social ladder? Yes, Wei Kun is rich, and my family is not poor either. We own a factory. He is a little higher than me, but his family is from the capital. So what? I like him as a person. Why don't you think that your eldest brother is not as good as him? I don't believe that there is an excellent man that I would not choose, but choose an ordinary man to spend my life with."
