The phone rang a few times and got connected.
"Uncle Han Jin." Sheng Zijin exhaled a puff of smoke ring, calling eagerly and obediently.
When Han Jin heard this voice, he didn't realize who it was for a while. It took him a long time to realize that it was from the Sheng family.
His tone was very flat, in stark contrast to Sheng Zijin's eagerness.
"Miss Sheng, what's the matter?"
"Uncle Han Jin, I don't know if you have time these two days. Can I meet you? I came this time, and my grandfather asked me to bring you some gifts. Please do me a favor and see my niece. "
Although Han Jin was in Wucheng, he was well aware of the situation in Jinjing. He doesn't like this kind of gang formation, and he hates this kind of family dispute even more.
Yes, directly refuse.
"Miss Sheng, I appreciate Mr. Sheng's kindness. I have been away from Jinjing for two years, and there are some things that I can't do. I'm really sorry. My unit has a meeting tomorrow, and I have to go on a business trip the day after tomorrow. I'm sorry."
"That..." Before Sheng Zijin could finish speaking, the phone was cut off.
Just like when she hung up Bai Fangfei's phone, Han Jin also hung up her phone decisively.
Sheng Zijin took a deep breath. This time she came to Wucheng, she failed to fulfill all of her grandfather's orders, and even made Times Middle School lose face so much.
Can their Sheng family make up for the first-line family this time
—
Today is the day for the Lu family to have dinner together.
In the restaurant, Mr. Lu Chengweng, Mr. Lu, and Mrs. Huang Yu, sat at the first place, next to them were Lu Xingtang, Pei Jinlan, and Lu Xi, and on the other side were Fu Man and Lu Xinnuan.
The two old people were in a good mood because of the presence of their eldest grandson, and they kept asking Lu Xi to bring food.
Lu Xi responded with a smile.
He was originally an easy-going person with a relatively stable temper and outstanding abilities, so he was liked by the elders. From time to time, he would serve food to the two old people, and the three generations of his children and grandchildren lived in harmony.
However, when he saw his aunt and Lu Xinnuan opposite, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
"Grandpa and grandma, Kunpeng Middle School has been proud recently."
"Oh, what's the matter?"
Lu Xinnuan's chopsticks for chopping rice paused.
Lu Xi also heard the news from Lei Shuqi, and he said: "Didn't Kunpeng School have an exchange meeting between the two schools? This time, Kunpeng won, directly winning all ten school badges from Times Middle School! "
"It's a happy thing. Kunpeng Middle School is really good."
"Yes, this kind of honor is the first time for the school."
Pei Jinlan waved her hand: "How could it be considered the first time, when you defeated five people alone, your school was shocked."
"Mom, I was only 1v5 back then, this time it's 1v10."
"Oh? Who is so powerful?!"
"of course-"
Lu Xi's words were still on his lips, but Lu Xinnuan who was opposite suddenly spoke sweetly.
"Brother, what's going on with Sister Sheng Zijin? Their school lost, she must be very upset."
Pei Jinlan groaned, "That's right, Miss Sheng came here for this matter. The more exciting Kunpeng wins, the worse she loses? Lu Xi, why are you so happy!"
"Yeah, brother, I think you should go and comfort sister Xia Sheng." Lu Xinnuan pursed her lips, "Actually, I think the exchange between the two schools should focus on communication, not competition. There's really no need to make her look so ugly. "
"Xin Nuan is right." Lu Xingtang nodded.
Although there had been some unhappiness before, with Lu Mian's departure, the elders could only stand by Lu Xinnuan's side. After a long time, I have tolerated her a lot, and never mentioned what happened that night again.
What's more, Lu Xinnuan's studies are good, and she didn't make any big mistakes of principle.
After all, he is still a child, and at a young age, it will be fine in the future.
Lu Xi glanced at Lu Xinnuan across the way, and his eyes faded. He could understand some things, but because he was a relative, he chose to be tolerant.
Lu Xinnuan interrupted him by bringing out Sheng Zijin, and set the tone for Lu Mian before he said Lu Mian's name.
The intention of the other party is self-evident.
He frowned and clarified: "When two schools communicate, one loses and the other wins. Either their school is ugly, or Kunpeng Middle School is ugly. Face is earned by strength, and those who lose must accept it. Are others too strong?"
"Brother?" Lu Xinnuan called out suspiciously.
"Lu Xi?" Pei Jinlan murmured in her heart, knowing that her son was a little unhappy, and quickly followed his words to ask: "Then tell me, who is the person who has made such a big face for Kunpeng Middle School?"
"It's Lu Mian."
Lu Xi calmed down: "In the past few days, the opponent has competed with her in language and mathematics, as well as in sports, Go and games, and she lost all of them."
"..."
His tone was very calm, but his heart was already turbulent. How excited Lei Shuqi was when he talked about it, and how proud he was. His younger sister is really outstanding, invincibly excellent.
These words were not what the Lu family wanted to hear.
Lu Chengweng and Huang Yu looked at each other, their expressions were not very good-looking. Lu Xingtang and Pei Jinlan turned their faces away, each with their own food.
As for Fu Man, he only held his chopsticks and lowered his head.
Lu Xinnuan pouted and complained dissatisfiedly, "Brother, you are so biased..."
Lu Xi:
"When I participated in the exchange meeting, why didn't you praise me?" She curled her lips, "And...you don't know about Lu Mian being with an old man..."
She seemed to say it casually, in a chatty tone.
"What?" Lu Chengweng's face turned blue, and he put down his chopsticks in shock.
Lu Xinnuan panicked.
"Grandpa, don't be angry with me. I only saw it when I went back to school to get the review materials that night, and my brother also saw it."
"Lu Xi?"
Lu Xi denied: "That's not the case. The matter is not clear at all. How can you say that about a girl?"
"Then tell me, it's already eleven o'clock in the evening, why did she get into the car of an old man? Besides, that man is not a relative of our family, nor is he a teacher or elder, just a strange man, which doesn't explain the problem ah!"
"..."
Lu Xinnuan added, "At the beginning, when Lu Mian moved away from home, my mother and I began to doubt..."
There was silence at the dining table.
Fu Man tremblingly took a deep breath, knocked on her bowl, and suppressed her voice: "Stop talking, eat."
"Yes, don't talk about it." Pei Jinlan smiled: "Lu Mian, she has severed ties with us now, and we can't control that much. Hey, I just hope she doesn't make any troubles that insult the family..."
Pei Jinlan changed the subject, "By the way, the day after tomorrow is Nuan Nuan's birthday on the 7th. The twentieth birthday must be organized properly. Sister-in-law, is brother coming back?"
