Chapter 162 - 162 Coincidental or Intentional?
162 Coincidental or Intentional?
Lu Jiao nodded and then led the group to the living room.
On the way there, she remembered her suspicion from last time.
Four years ago, Xie Yunjin was drugged. Four years later, he was hit by a horse carriage. Weren’t all those incidents far too coincidental? Could it be that someone was jealous and intentionally harmed him?
Though Lu Jiao had those thoughts, she didn’t express them. She led Classmate Han, Zheng Zhixing, and the others to the east bedroom.
When Xie Yunjin saw everyone, he happily gestured for them to sit.
Lu Jiao went to make tea.
The four little ones saw the guests and asked Lu Jiao in a quiet voice, “Mommy, are we not going to Mutou’s place anymore?”
Lu Jiao nodded and patted their heads, “We’ll go in the afternoon. I have to cook lunch later and don’t have time to go.”
The four little ones didn’t say much else, “We got it. Then we will get ready for our reading lessons.”
“Sounds good, go ahead.”
Lu Jiao then brought some tea into the east bedroom.
There, Zheng Zhixing and Xie Yunjin chatted.
“Yunjin, you sure are lucky to remain unscathed after such serious injuries. As the saying goes, one who survives a great disaster is destined for good fortune after. I am certain you will experience great fortune.”
Lu Jiao felt like that guy’s tone was a little bitter.
The other two classmates warmly smiled. Li Wenbin grinned sincerely, “I am glad you are okay. Now, you can attend next year’s exam. Given your intelligence, I am certain you will place first in our prefecture.”
Those words made Zheng Zhixing’s face drop. His lips also tightened.
Xie Yunjin smiled in response, “I’m happy to just pass. In our Ning Prefecture, there are many hidden talents and lowkey geniuses who are waiting to pounce on the opportunity to show off their skills.”
Because of those words, Zheng Zhixing’s expression lightened up.
Calmly, Lu Jiao placed the tea and the cups before everyone, “Have some tea, everyone.”
She handed the cups of tea to each guest. Afterward, she politely walked up to Xie Yunjin and asked, “Should I cook some food and have everyone stay for dinner?”
