Chapter 206 Recite the Love Poem Together
Xia Xiaoluo has been studying with Chu Tong these days, sometimes they had lunch together, but it seemed that Ling Tianyi didn’t know anything about it.
Xia Xiaoluo thought that Ling Tianyi didn’t care about her, because Ling Tianyi was busy with his sister Ling Tianxue’s working affairs these days. In fact, it was Ling Desheng’s arrangement. Ling Desheng didn’t want Ling Tianyi to know it so early, for fear that Ling Tianyi would stop Xia Xiaoluo in time, then she would fail.
Although Ling Desheng has retired from work, there were still many people working for him in the company. As long as he said something, the body guards who were sent by Ling Tianyi to protect and monitor Xia Xiaoluo at school would work for him.
Ling Tianyi was very busy these days, because Ling Tianxue caused many troubles in the company. She was the princess of the Ling’s family, so she was more high-profile than Xia Xiaoluo, nobody could control her.
“Ha! Chu Wei, I finally find you.” Ling Tianxue was quarreling with Ling Tianyi in the corridor. When she saw Chu Wei, she changed her face at once, being very happy.
“Tianxue?” Chu Wei looked at Ling Tianxue in surprise.
“What’s the matter? Aren’t you glad to see me coming back? Or you think I’m not competent for the work of Huasheng Group?” Ling Tianxue left Ling Tianyi immediately and went to pester Chu Wei instead.
“Welcome! You are the daughter of the Ling’s family. It’s natural for you to work in Huasheng Group. As an employee of the company, I am not qualified to evaluate it. I haven’t seen you for a long time. I’m a little surprised that you are here now.” Chu Wei said awkwardly, because Ling Tianxue was holding his arms, and people around were looking at them.
Chu Wei wanted to get rid of Ling Tianxue, but she didn’t let him go. “Chu Wei, now that you welcome my coming back, you should invite me to eat Chinese food tonight! I have been eating western food for two years, I want to eat our Chinese delicacies.”
“Ah? It…” Chu Wei looked at Ling Tianyi with embarrassment, but Ling Tianyi ignored him directly. Because Ling Tianyi wanted to get rid of Ling Tianxue as well, he wanted to find Xiaoluo at once.
“You don’t want to invite me? Then I’ll ask my brother to fire you!” Ling Tianxue said.
“Fine! I’ll treat you. Which restaurant do you want to go?” Chu Wei asked. Since Ling Tianxue pestered him, he could only invite her, or she would keep bothering him.
“Please, I have just come back for three days! Brother, I’ve been away from A City for over two years. I don’t know which restaurant is the best!” Ling Tianxue protested discontentedly. In fact, Ling Tianxue and Xia Xiaoluo were both gluttons. She also liked those old restaurants, but she wanted Chu Wei to invite her, she would be happier then.
Chu Wei had no choice but to nod. “OK! I’ll arrange it. Last month, a new Sichuan restaurant opened here. It’s very delicious and not far from the company. I’ll book a table and pick you up after work. Now I’m going to work first.”
Ling Tianxue looked at the fancy watch on her wrist. “Well. Let you go for now! Don’t you work overtime, there is only one hour left!”
“I see. I’ll invite Miss Ling to dinner today and I won’t work overtime!” Chu Wei said and went back to the office. After leaving Ling Tianxue, he felt relieved.
Ling Tianyi left the company early. When Ling Tianxue was pestering Chu Wei, he drove to pick up Xia Xiaoluo from school secretly.
“Darling! It’s so early!” Xia Xiaoluo received a call from Ling Tianyi.
“Yes! It’s over four o’clock. Don’t be too tired when you are studying! I’m waiting for you at the school gate!” Ling Tianyi said. Although he was the biggest shareholder of the school and he had the privilege to drive into the school, but he was very low-key. As long as he was not in a hurry, he would wait for Xiaoluo at the school gate according to the rules of Dwichen’s College.
“I’ll be there at once. Wait for me!” Xia Xiaoluo hung up, packing up her books.
“You are leaving so early today?” Chu Tong asked.
“Yes! He came to pick me up in advance today. I can’t make him wait at the school gate for long. What’s more, I’m tired of studying. I’ll go first. You are the super scholar, so don’t send me off, just continue to study. See you tomorrow!” Xia Xiaoluo finished and left.
Chu Tong insisted on sending Xia Xiaoluo off to the gate of the library. “Xiaoluo, call me if you need anything!”
“I see. You can go back!” Xia Xiaoluo urged Chu Tong to go back. She knew that Chu Tong has stayed up late these days to study. Being a super scholar was not easy.
As soon as Xia Xiaoluo got on Ling Tianyi’s car, he got a call from Chu Wei.
“What’s matter?” Ling Tianyi asked directly. What he disliked most was to receive the call from Chu Wei. Because Chu Wei was not Yao Sheng, Chu Wei would only call him when there was something urgent or difficult.
Chu Wei was too shy to speak out, but he still said, “Manager Ling, Tianxue asked me to invite her to dinner tonight!”
“You can go and treat her! Can’t you afford the meal?” Ling Tianyi was relieved. It was not the business in the company.
“I think Tianxue is not a child any more. It’s not suitable for me to have dinner with her alone.” Chu Wei said awkwardly. Seeing that Ling Tianyi didn’t reply, he said, “Manager Ling, I booked a seat in the Sichuan Restaurant near the company. If you have time, you can come too. It’s not easy for me to invite you. Please accept my request!”
“All right! Anyway, we don’t know what to eat now!” Ling Tianyi agreed happily. He felt that Ling Tianxue was strange this time, because she was very interested in Chu Wei’s affairs.
Ling Tianyi thought that Ling Tianxue would find various excuses to refuse to work in the company, but she agreed at once, wanting to be his assistant to help Chu Wei. When she arrived at the company, she kept inquiring about Chu Wei. Ling Tianyi didn’t care about it at first. But now, he knew there must be something wrong.
Chu Wei was relieved to hear Ling Tianyi’s words.
“Darling, where are we going?” Xia Xiaoluo heard Ling Tianyi’s on the phone, but she didn’t know what happened.
“Chu Wei wanted to invite us to dinner. Let’s go.” Ling Tianyi said with a smile.
“We can’t afford the dinner today?” Xia Xiaoluo joked with Ling Tianyi.
Ling Tianyi didn’t answer, but he said directly, “Tianxue is also there! I think she likes Chu Wei.”
“That’s great!” Xia Xiaoluo said without thinking.
“Why?” Ling Tianyi didn’t know what was in Xia Xiaoluo’s mind. In fact, it was none of her business.
“First, if Chu Wei and Tianxue are together, you won’t doubt me and Chu Wei. When you were in hospital last time, I only called Chu Wei ‘Brother Chu Wei’, and you were so jealous and unhappy. Second, you and mother don’t need to worry about Tianxue’s marriage. Chu Wei is a capable man, he could protect Tianxue very well. Third, Chu Wei is your assistant. If he becomes your brother-in-law, it will be very beneficial to you. Above all, it’s a good thing for them to be together. We should cheer for them!” Xia Xiaoluo said when she was playing her mobile phone.
“Darling, you’re so clever. Your words are very organized. What’s more, you can come to a conclusion. You have learned much in Chinese Department!” Ling Tianyi said with a smile. “Can you write a poem or a prose? Or just recite some poems.”
“It’s too easy!” Xia Xiaoluo said proudly, she has recited several poems that might be tested in the exam these days.
“Amazing! Recite a few sentences, especially the love poems!” Ling Tianyi was happy now, because Xia Xiaoluo seemed to make a progress.
“Love poems! Shu Ting, To the Oak!” Xia Xiaoluo said, which was one of the key points that Luo Xixi told her. She recited it this afternoon.
“OK! To the Oak!” Ling Tianyi said immediately.
“If I love you, I won’t wind upon you like a trumpet creeper, or upvalue myself by your height…” Xia Xiaoluo recited. Ling Tianyi was intoxicated. He couldn’t help reciting it with her together.
After reciting the poem, Xia Xiaoluo asked Ling Tianyi with surprise, “Darling, why can you recite it? Have you ever studied in the Chinese Department?”
“It’s a classic poem! Everyone can recite it! No need to study in the Chinese Department. This poem is in the high school textbook.” Ling Tianyi said with a smile.
“But I just learned it this afternoon! It might be in the exam!” Xia Xiaoluo said sadly. She tried her best to recite the poem in the afternoon, but it was something that senior high school students should learn. She felt depressed at once.
Seeing that Xia Xiaoluo was depressed, Ling Tianyi comforted her at once, “It doesn’t matter. Now you can recite it. It seems that you studied hard at school today. You will pass the final exam!”
“Of course, but I am not confident about the final exam!” Xia Xiaoluo said sadly. Chu Tong helped her to review the knowledge every day. Chu Tong was better than her now. However, she still couldn’t remember and understand many things.
