In the name of supernatural powers

Chapter 101 Meeting
Lu Xiaotong asked, "Uncle, I am Lu Xiaotong, but are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"

The train station manager pulled out a form: "There's no mistake. Among the passengers who came to Fangshi today, you are the only one named Lu Xiaotong."

He had confirmed it beforehand; if he had mistaken the person, would he still be able to keep his job?

Lu Xiaotong frankly said, "My family is just an ordinary family. You don't need to do this. It's a waste of public resources."

Although it was comfortable to be treated like this, with air conditioning in the VIP room, it was ultimately not something she deserved.

Uncle Zhao taught her from a young age not to do evil because it is insignificant, and not to neglect good because it is insignificant.

What doesn't belong to her, she shouldn't covet.

The person in charge of the train station, seeing that this sixteen or seventeen-year-old high school student had such awareness, thought to himself, "No wonder he's a child of the compound; the education he receives is truly different."

He said, "We are indeed looking for you. We were entrusted by your elders. You can call to confirm."

Lu Xiaotong looked suspicious, but she still took out her small mobile phone and dialed Lu Zhao's number.

The call was answered quickly, and a steady male voice came through.

"Xiaotong, have you found someone to pick you up?"

"Next to me is a leader from the train station. He said that he was arranged by Uncle Zhao."

The person in charge of the train station immediately spoke up: "I am Kong Yang, the person in charge of the train station. Hello, leader."

Lu Xiaotong blinked, her beautiful face full of confusion.

Wasn't Uncle Zhao working too hard and offending some important person? How come he seems more powerful than the school leaders?

Her mother often complained about Uncle Zhao, saying that if Uncle Zhao hadn't offended any important people, their Lu family would have become so successful.
Lu Zhao was also very tired during the few days he returned home each year, and he slept all day long.

After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Lu Zhao sighed and said, "I understand. You can wait there for a while. An aunt named Lin Zhiyan will come to pick you up."

"Oh."

Lu Xiaotong obediently responded.

The phone hangs up.

The train station manager asked, "Student Lu, what does your uncle do?"

Lu Xiaotong shook her head and said, "I don't know."

After that, no matter how the other party tried to probe, Lu Xiaotong always claimed to be unaware or simply remained silent.

Nothing to do is to commit crimes or to steal.

Although my family is just an ordinary family, I can't just answer any question a stranger asks.

The person in charge of the train station had a vague idea in mind.

A few days ago, a deputy head of a special task force named Lu Zhao brought down the entire leadership of Fangchenggang City. If the railway system hadn't been uninvolved in smuggling, I probably would have been in trouble too.

People are still speculating about Lu Zhao's identity and background. Some have found out that he is just a junior officer, but there are also rumors that he is a descendant of a certain military commander.

People are more willing to believe rumors than the results of surveys.

Otherwise, how could they possibly remove the entire leadership team of a city?

About half an hour later, a commotion arose outside the VIP room, and then a short-haired, elegant woman walked in surrounded by a group of people.

His gaze swept across the VIP room and immediately locked onto Lu Xiaotong, who was walking towards him.

The person in charge of the train station went to greet her, but Xu Fang immediately stopped him to avoid disturbing Miss Lin.

Sometimes it's not that Lin Zhiyan is being arrogant, but rather that too many people want to curry favor with her. Before graduation, her identity was kept secret, but now that she's entered the workforce and officialdom, her identity is public knowledge.

Anyone with a bit of connections knows her.

Lin Zhiyan spoke gently, with a smile on his face, and extended his hand, saying, "Lin Zhiyan, you must be Lu Xiaotong?"

Lu Xiaotong nodded somewhat timidly.

This lady is very special, like a star in the sky. She is not only very beautiful, but also possesses an indescribable air of nobility.

He was accompanied by someone who looked like a secretary, and they were clearly not ordinary people. "Your uncle asked me to pick you up."

"Hello, Sister Lin! Sister Lin is so beautiful."

Lu Xiaotong has high emotional intelligence; she didn't directly call him "Auntie."

"You have such a sweet tongue. You haven't had lunch yet, have you? Let me take you to eat something delicious."

Lin Zhiyan beamed with joy, took Lu Xiaotong's hand and walked out of the VIP room. Surrounded by railway soldiers, they got into a black jeep without any hindrance.

For the first time, Lu Xiaotong experienced what it meant to be fawned over and ordered around.

In the car, Lin Zhiyan initially exchanged pleasantries with her, asking what school she attended, how her grades were, and where she wanted to apply to university in the future.

Lu Xiaotong wasn't too wary when Lu Zhao explicitly mentioned an acquaintance, and answered Lin Zhiyan's questions one by one.

Does your uncle have a girlfriend?

The topic suddenly changed, and Lu Xiaotong immediately understood.

So it turns out she wanted to woo Uncle Zhao.

Seven or eight years ago, when Uncle Zhao was still in high school in Cangwu, Lu Xiaotong was often fed by various older sisters of unknown origin.

Then, subtly inquire about Uncle Zhao's whereabouts, or help deliver love letters.

As a result, Lu Xiaotong became chubby in elementary school and only gradually lost weight after Lu Zhao went to university.

Of course, he has a girlfriend, namely Uncle Zhao's childhood sweetheart. Although the two never refer to themselves as boyfriend and girlfriend, they have been inseparable since they can remember.

After starting university, Lu Xiaotong never saw him again. She only heard that he had gone to Chishui and that Uncle Zhao had gone to the capital.

In today's terms, it's a long-distance relationship. Shouldn't they have broken up a long time ago?

"Many people have given Uncle Zhao love letters since I was a child, but I don't know exactly who they are."

Lu Xiaotong gave a vague answer so as not to ruin Uncle Zhao's good deed.

She countered with, "Sister, are you going to pursue Uncle Zhao?"

"Who would be blind to chase after him?"

Lin Zhiyan shook his head, his expression arrogant with a hint of disdain, and said, "He and I are just classmates, and now we're colleagues. He's not really the type of person you'd want to be in a romantic relationship with; he has absolutely no sense of romance."

"He's just got a good-looking face and a little bit of ability, otherwise who would pay attention to him?"

Lu Xiaotong sensed Lin Zhiyan's resentment and chimed in, "Uncle Zhao is indeed rather rigid. He was very strict with me when he was still at home."

"It's not just rigid, it's as smelly and hard as a rock in a latrine."

"That's right, that's right."

Afterwards, Lin Zhiyan took Lu Xiaotong to a high-end restaurant for dinner, then strolled around the mall, and had afternoon tea, visiting almost every place in Fangshi where one could spend money.

During this time, Lu Xiaotong refused all of Lin Zhiyan's gifts, refusing to accept them no matter what.

Lin Zhiyan grew increasingly fond of the girl who looked remarkably similar to Lu Zhao.

She has a good personality, shares similar values, is cute, and has high emotional intelligence.

Unlike Lu Zhao, this girl is very good at flattering others; she's practically a flagship version of Lu Zhao.

The two got along better and better, and it wasn't until evening that Lu Zhao finally arrived late in a beat-up pickup truck.

At this moment, Lu Zhao was covered in water stains and mud, looking exactly like a farmer who had just finished farm work.

Flood prevention is not something you can do sitting in an office; you need to run around to many places every day.

He smiled and waved to the two of them.

Lu Xiaotong, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat when she saw him.

The once handsome and dashing Uncle Zhao now looks weathered and worn.
