Chapter 240 – Bad impression (1)
After the call with Lin Yueqi, Lu Ting put his phone back into his pocket, and corners of his lips couldn’t help but turn upwards.
Seems like this woman may have a sharp mouth but a soft heart. She still likes him.
…
Lin Yueqi wasn’t too fond of socializing, but the person she was going to meet was one of the richest men in the country, the chubby girl’s grandfather, so she could only grit her teeth and attend the dinner.
Since she had to pick up the chubby girl from school, Lin Yueqi carried a backpack that day. The chubby girl carried a large water bottle with her every day after school, as well as a bunch of other things, so it was more convenient to carry a backpack.
As usual, the school door opened within ten minutes of her arriving at the gates. The teacher came out with a parade of children, handing them over to their guardians one by one.
Lin Yueqi noticed that Tuantuan’s teacher was different.
This woman was very good-looking with very fair skin, and a tempered aura around her. This wasn’t temperament that could be gained overnight but rather accumulated over time. It could be seen that she was a cultured woman.
The teacher pulled Tuantuan over to Lin Yueqi and smiled. “Nice to meet you, Miss Lin. I am Lu Junyi’s class teacher, Le Xiao. Her original teacher, Teacher Tang, was transferred to another school, so I will be taking over their class from today on.”
“Nice to meet you, Teacher. I am Lu Junyi’s parent, Lin Yyueqi.” Lin Yueqi shook hands with Le Xiao. She felt that she looked familiar as if she’d seen her somewhere before.
Since she took Tuantuan from the teacher and got into her car, she was still thinking about it.
Tuantuan put her bag down and clutched her little yellow schoolbag tightly in her arms. Turning around to see her mother distracted, she asked, “Mama, what’re you thinking about? Why are you the one picking me up today and not Granny? Isn’t Mama worried about having photos taken by the paparazzi?”
Lin Yueqi came back to her senses. “Oh, Old Lu asked us to go over to his house for dinner today, then you can visit your great-grandpa as well.”
“Great-grandpa? that super nice-looking super rich guy?” Tuantuan had seen the wealthy Mr. Lu on the net and thought he was a kind and affable-looking old man. She had a very good impression of him since he first saw him.
Lin Yueqi, “??” The girl can’t possibly have masochistic tendencies, right?
She actually thinks that the richest man in the country, Mr. Lu, was nice-looking? Lin Yueqi had seen interviews of him on the news and with her excellent intuition, she dares say that this old man was definitely not nice. He was upright and stern!
From the way Lu Ting spoke alone, she could tell how much he feared that old man. Even Lu Ting was scared of that old man, so how could he be nice?
Actually, she didn’t care what the old man thought of her. She was worried that the old man would have a bad impression of chubby little Tuan because of her. After all, Tuantuan was a Lu family descendent and will have to inherit the household in the future, becoming a matriarch. If the old man doesn’t like her, then he may give up the position to someone else.
Lin Yueqi was worried, but Tuantuan didn’t think it was a problem. She took Lin Yueqi’s hand and said in a soft voice, “Mama, I think you’re thinking too much. If Great Grandpa doesn’t like Tuantuan, then he doesn’t like me. Tuantuan is not renminbi, so if some people like Tuantuan, then there will definitely be others that don’t like Tuantuan, right? So stop worrying, Mama. As long as Mama loves Tuantuan, then Tuantuan is happy.”
Then, she curled her arms around Lin Yueqi’s neck in a hug, nuzzling her against her soft chest. “Granny said that people can’t be too greedy. It’s enough that one person loves you in the world, no need to care about what other people think of you. Tuantuan used to think that only Granny and Mama loves Tuantuan, but only now does Tuantuan know that there are actually more people who love Tuantuan. Like Papa, Old Cheng, Uncle Li…”
“As long as I have Mama’s love, then Tuantuan can do without Great Grandpa’s big house. Why do I have to live in a big house? I like the old house in the village, I like Granny, Mama, and Dahuang. I like to eat noodles under the grapevine.” Tuantuan took her hand and pressed it on her chest. “Inside here, no matter how big the house, it’s no match for Mama and Granny’s little house.”
