In the end, Lu Chen was too lazy to say anything, so he just used the excuse of going to the bathroom and ran to the restroom to watch Douyin.
When he came out again, Lu Shuyu had even discussed the afternoon plan with her "mother-in-law and father-in-law".
"Lu Chen, uncle and aunt said they would take me to the beach this afternoon~"
"Oh."
Lu Chen had no expression on his face: "Then you guys go."
"What is this nonsense!"
Zhang Qingmei slapped the sofa and said, "Xiao Lu finally came here, how can you not accompany him?"
"Just a complaint..."
"Complain? You complained about what Xiao Lu said!"
"..."
"Okay, go wherever it's cool."
After glaring at Lu Chen, Zhang Qingmei looked at Lu Shuyu again, and her tone immediately became gentle.
"Xiao Lu, it's only one o'clock now. It's hot outside. Let's not rush. Let's rest at home first and leave after three o'clock."
"Okay." The rich young woman nodded obediently.
"Okay, then go to Lu Chen's room and lie down for a while. Auntie just changed the sheets a few days ago."
"Ah, Auntie, this is not good."
"It's okay. The guest room at home is not cleaned up and it's very messy. You can go to Lu Chen's room."
"Then Lu Chen..."
"He can just stay in the living room."
"..."
Haha, I knew it.
Rolling his eyes, Lu Chen sat down on the sofa. He had already expected that he would have to sleep on the sofa at noon today.
At the same time, Lu Shuyu couldn't resist Zhang Qingmei's enthusiasm and stood up to go to his bedroom for a nap.
If Lao Zhang and Lao Lu were not there, the rich woman would probably invite Lu Chen to come into the house to "rest" together.
But it definitely wouldn't work now, so she just glanced at Lu Chen and then followed Zhang Qingmei away.
"What does Xiao Lu's family do?"
Taking advantage of the time when the two women were away, Lu Jianhua quickly approached Lu Chen and asked in a low voice: "Are you doing business?"
"I'm in real estate."
Lu Chen answered casually: "My family has at least tens of billions of dollars."
"More than a dozen billion???"
Lu Jianhua knew that Lu Shuyu's family was rich, but he didn't expect them to be so rich. He was stunned for a moment.
After a long while, he muttered blankly:
"Your mom's guess is really accurate... No, are you two classmates or something? What's your relationship with the girl in the photo you sent to your mom a few days ago?"
Finally, he asked the question that had been in his mind for two hours. Perhaps because he was afraid that Lu Chen would not tell the truth, Lu Jianhua deliberately lowered his voice and added:
"Tell Dad the truth, and I promise not to tell your mom."
"The truth is, classmates."
Lu Chen's expression was calm: "The one in the photo is my girlfriend."
"Really?"
Lu Jianhua looked unconvinced: "Then why didn't you bring your girlfriend back this time, but brought Xiao Lu back instead?"
I would like to bring her, but your real daughter-in-law is still mute and dare not see you.
Besides, it wasn't me who brought Lu Shuyu back, but she brought me back.
"She's been busy lately and isn't available."
Lu Chen had no choice but to explain for Qingbao: "Wait for a while, I'll bring her back."
"..."
No, why is it like choosing a concubine...
Looking at Lu Chen, Lu Jianhua always felt something was strange.
Logically speaking, since Lu Chen said so, then Lu Shuyu should really be just a classmate.
But judging from the interaction between the two, it is obviously not that simple.
Could it be that, as Qingmei said, Lu Chen was playing two-timing?
"Son, you wouldn't..."
After hesitating for a while, Lu Jianhua decided to ask clearly.
After all, he had not lived in vain over the years. He could see that Lu Shuyu liked Lu Chen.
So even if there is a misunderstanding, at least it can serve as a reminder to the latter not to do something that goes against public order and good morals, such as "multitasking".
From Lu Jiuyuan to Lu You, and then to Lu Hongqi, there are no bad men in the Lu family!
Oh, Lu Hongqi is Lu Chen’s grandfather.
In short, as an ordinary father, husband, and law-abiding citizen, Lu Jianhua could never accept the idea of "playing two games at the same time".
But before he could finish his words, Zhang Qingmei suddenly came back.
"What are you two whispering about?"
"Uh, I was talking to my son..."
"What are you talking about? Xiao Lu needs to rest if you guys don't! Go back to the house!"
"..."
In terms of family status, Lu Jianhua is basically equivalent to the dog in the family.
The Lu family doesn't have a dog, so it's basically the same as having no dog.
So he could only shut his mouth in disappointment, got up and followed Zhang Qingmei back to the bedroom.
Lu Chen was the only one left in the living room.
The standing air conditioner in the corner was humming hard, the sun was shining brightly outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and on the coffee table were teacups from which several people had just drunk tea.
"Ugh......"
After taking a look at the half-open door not far away, Lu Chen sighed in confusion and fell down on the sofa.
He stared at the ceiling for a while, then took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket.
He opened the chat box with Qingbao, hesitated for a while, and then quietly exited.
Although this was not the first time that he had said "sorry" to Comrade Xiao Qin, this was the first time that Lu Chen felt guilty.
When people feel guilty, they often only show two behaviors.
Either extremely excited or extremely silent.
Obviously, Lu Chen is the latter.
I put down my phone, turned over, and was about to take a nap based on the principle of "since things have come to this, let's just let it be."
As a result, at this moment, he suddenly saw Comrade Zhang Qingmei walking into his bedroom holding a summer quilt.
There is no doubt that the quilt was prepared for Lu Shuyu.
Wow, this salary is really high.
......
"Dong Dong Dong~"
"Xiao Lu hasn't rested yet."
When Zhang Qingmei walked into the bedroom holding a quilt, Lu Shuyu was sitting beside the bed, curiously observing a calligraphy hanging on the wall.
“Do your best and act within your capabilities”
The eight characters are written in a flamboyant style. It’s hard to comment on the calligraphy level, but the content is indeed a bit strange.
After all, it seems that no one would use two idioms to motivate themselves.
It's more like an excuse to give up.
I have tried my best, and there is nothing I can do if I fail... That's probably how it feels.
"Ah, Auntie."
Hearing Zhang Qingmei's voice, the rich young woman quickly retracted her gaze and stood up.
Zhang Qingmei glanced at the words and explained disdainfully:
"This is written by your uncle. He was afraid that Lu Chen would be under a lot of pressure during the college entrance examination... Let's not talk about this. Auntie got you a new quilt."
"Don't bother me, auntie."
Lu Shuyu quickly waved her hand: "I'm not that tired, I'll just lie down and rest for a while."
"Don't be polite. The air conditioner is on and the temperature is so low. You should cover yourself with a blanket to avoid catching a cold."
Zhang Qingmei was very persistent. She put the quilt on the bed and then took out a small red velvet box from her pocket.
It is a jewelry box from at least a dozen years ago. It is rare to see such "rustic" packaging nowadays.
"Xiao Lu, thank you for the gift you gave to aunt and uncle."
Zhang Qingmei looked at the somewhat confused Lu Shuyu with a smile in a gentle voice.
"This is your first time at home. According to the custom in Shandong, Auntie has to give you a red envelope."
"But you guys came back so suddenly this time. As you know, no one uses cash anymore, so I didn't have time to prepare."
