Chapter 137: Male Classmate
Cheng Ling: Teacher Sun, are you still a teacher? How can you shirk your responsibilities?!
Seeing more and more people at the door, Cheng Ling decided to do a physics question.
Therefore, she enlarged the photo and looked at the question seriously.
Lu Qi saw it after the call. It was the scene of Cheng Ling sitting on a stone bench and trying hard to look at her phone.
“What’s wrong?”
Lu Qi had never seen Cheng Ling being so focused looking at her phone.
Cheng Ling raised to show the question to Lu Qi. “Do you know how to do it?”
Lu Qi took the phone and accidentally clicked on the picture. It then returned to the dialog box.
When Lu Qi saw the name and profile picture, he knew that it was a guy.
He didn’t answer the question directly. “Is this a classmate?”
“Yes.”
“A male classmate?”
“… Yes.”
He returned the phone to Cheng Ling.
Lu Qi said, “You have to pay attention to the friction between the tires and the ground. It changes according to the material of the ground.”
Cheng Ling looked down. “That makes sense.”
Almost everyone had arrived by now. A few were being late due to traffic jams. Even Old Master Ding wasn’t here yet.
The guests were all surrounding Old Master Cheng. They wanted to congratulate Old Master Cheng and take the opportunities to make themselves familiar with Lu Xiu.
“Old Master Cheng, I wish you a happy birthday, prosperity, and long life!”
“Thank you, thank you for coming. Have fun here tonight. Eat, and drink as much as you want.”
“Certainly, certainly.”
After congratulating Old Master Cheng, they turned to shake hands with Lu Xiu.
“Master Lu, it’s a blessing to be able to see you!”
“Yeah, to be able to see the president who has made the Lu Group bigger and stronger is a blessing!”
Lu Xiu was being used as a hand-shaking tool, and Xie Wan was not idle either.
The men were chatting with Lu Xiu, and the wives of these men surrounded Xie Wan saying all the envious words.
“It has only been a month or two, and the master of the Lu family has already come to your house twice. It seems that the master of the Lu family really values your family.”
Xie Wan thought that it was only natural, but she still had to be modest on the surface.
She waved her hand at the group of ladies who were wearing heavy makeup. “It’s nothing. We sent an invitation to the Lu family. The master of the Lu family was polite and cultured, so he accepted the invitation.”
A lady in a cheongsam spoke up.
“We’ll be sad if you say that. Which family here hasn’t invited Master Lu before? He didn’t even send a reply, but he only came to you. Even if he’s polite, he’s only polite to your family.”
“Xie Wan, I envy you. Your family’s business is thriving, and you have such an obedient daughter. And now, even Master Lu also cares about you.”
“That’s right. If you have any benefits in the future, don’t forget about us. We’ve been poker buddies for so many years.”
Xie Wan nodded repeatedly on the surface, but in her heart, she was sneering.
When you guys worked together to win my money at the mahjong table, why didn’t you consider our relationship for so many years?
When I climbed to the top, you guys wouldn’t even see me!
“By the way, where’s your Xiao Xiao? Why haven’t we seen her yet? Even the master of the Lu family has come down.”
Speaking of Cheng Xiao, Xie Wan couldn’t help but frown.
“Xiao Xiao is still upstairs. I’m going to call her down now. You guys entertain yourselves.”
After saying that, Xie Wan hurried upstairs.
Cheng Xiao was still sitting in her room. She was wearing her school uniform and hadn’t changed.
“Xiao Xiao, why haven’t you changed? Master Lu is here, and all the other guests are already here as well.”
Cheng Xiao’s face was gloomy. She was unhappy.
“I have no clothes to wear! I have already worn every dress in the wardrobe before.”
Cheng Xiao had been unhappy for two days because of the dress.
After they came back from the clothing store that day, they rushed to look at the other dresses. But Cheng Xiao was not satisfied with any of them.
“Then what can we do? The person who ordered that dress is the second young master of the Lu family. We can’t snatch it from him either. Quickly put on any of them and seize the opportunity to show your face in front of the master of the Lu family.”
“But how can I become the center of attention without that dress!”
Although Xie Wan was a little impatient in her heart, to appease her daughter’s emotions, she still walked to the front of the wardrobe.
Cheng Xiao’s wardrobe was filled with dresses. There were all kinds of styles and colors. Xie Wan picked out a white lace princess dress after a few seconds.
“Why don’t you wear this one? This one is quite similar to the one in the magazine.”
It was indeed quite similar. The design was the same, with the same off-shoulder. However, compared to the simple and elegant dress in the magazine, this one was more complicated. It had a lot of small lace on it.
