Of course Lu Yuan knew what his father meant. He sat next to Lao Lu and explained it to him in detail.

First of all, Gu Jiuyi and his two families agreed to live together, so there was nothing much to say. Then, Ye Yuhan and Xu Ruolin happened to be his neighbors and lived next door. It was a bit of a coincidence, but it was just a coincidence. In addition, given their status, Lu Yuan hoped that his father would not look at them as his daughter-in-law.

Lu Cheng just kept nodding his head and drinking tea. I don’t know if he was listening or not, but he was smiling the whole time.

Lu Yuan felt his throat dry, drank a cup of tea and sighed, "Dad, I've explained it to this extent, you should believe it, right?"

"Of course I believe it. How can I not believe my son? Isn't this just a friendly interaction between neighbors?" Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked back.

Lu Yuan finally felt relieved and drank another sip of tea.

"By the way, did you take safety measures when doing things?" Lao Lu suddenly remembered something and asked seriously.

Lu Yuan spat out a mouthful of tea onto the table.

Lao Lu picked up a tissue and wiped it. "Son, you must be careful. No matter what, I didn't have you until college. You mustn't do it at this most critical age..."

Lu Yuan quickly covered Lao Lu's mouth to stop him from speaking.

"Let go, let go, no more joking." Lao Lu said incoherently.

Seeing Lao Lu’s serious look, Lu Yuan let go of his hand.

"Oh, it's great to be young."

As Lao Lu was speaking, he took out a non-existent lighter and cigarette from his pocket, lit the "cigarette", and put it in his mouth.

The road is long and I am feeling depressed.

"Dad, are you kidding me?"

Lao Lu frowned and said, "What are you talking about? Your mother is very strict. I have given up smoking for more than ten years, but I just get used to doing this action when I think."

"You're awesome." Lu Yuan didn't know how to comment.

"Actually, you can just tell me the truth." Lao Lu patted Lu Yuan's shoulder and said earnestly, "I'm not your mother. Don't be afraid of how your mother controls you. I'll go talk to your mother. Even if you hook up with three, four, five or even more people at the same time, your father will support you."

Several “#” marks appeared on Lu Yuan’s forehead, and he took deep breaths to calm his emotions.

Dad is becoming more and more outspoken.

"Dad, can you have some self-awareness? Ye Yuhan is of such high status, can't we at least pay attention to being a good match?" Lu Yuan said speechlessly.

"Ah?" Lu Cheng was furious. "You kid look down on me, your father, so much? My son is not worthy of her? You're kidding, there is no such thing as unworthy when it comes to me."

"Dad, you don't smell like alcohol, so why are you dreaming now?"

"You bastard boy, do you really look down on your father? If your father was really not capable, would you live with the girl from the Gu family?" Lao Lu was heartbroken.

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "So you admit that you and Uncle Gu had planned to send her to me?"

Lao Lu tilted his head and said, "I let it slip, hey."

"I hey your head!"

Lao Lu took a puff of his cigarette and said, "It wasn't really premeditated. That's not the point. Let's get back to your story first."

Rather than planning it in advance, Lao Lu felt that it would be more appropriate to act on impulse. After all, he was somewhat relieved to see his son suddenly grow up.

Lu Yuan was still squinting his eyes and looking at Lao Lu with his arms folded.

"My business? What else could I have?"

"What happened between you and classmate Xiao Ye!" Lao Lu had a look of disappointment on his face.

"Dad, do you want to sober up? I'll make you some honey water."

After saying that, Lu Yuan prepared to get up.

"Asshole, I'm not kidding you." Lao Lu became anxious.

"..." Lu Yuan held his forehead helplessly, "Dad, it's okay for you to know Uncle Gu, but do you think you can also know Uncle Ye?"

"Do you look down on me, your father?" Lao Lu raised his eyebrows.

"Prove your strength." Lu Yuan really didn't believe it.

"Fuck..." Lao Lu was about to take out his phone, but then he remembered something and shook his head helplessly, "Alas, my son has reached his rebellious stage and doesn't trust me anymore."

Lu Yuan suppressed Lao Lu's melancholy look and really didn't want to say anything.

"By the way, I have no objection to you dating the girl from the Ye family and Lao Gu's daughter, but are you sure you want to date the one from the Xu family too?" Lao Lu suddenly said.

Lu Yuan was a little stunned. He ignored the previous words and went straight to the point: Dad knew about Xu Ruolin?

"Her family background... is a bit complicated, and she's not officially an only child." Lao Lu said as he recalled, "But this isn't a problem for your father and mother. It's up to you what you want to do. If you encounter something you can't solve, just tell your parents."

"Is there nothing else?" Lu Yuan asked nervously.

The way Lao Lu looked at Lu Yuan, after so many years of dealing with people, he could see that Lu Yuan was not surprised by the previous information, and he was a little shocked at the moment.

Does my son really know that Xiao Xu has a half-sister and a half-sister?

Lao Lu also sincerely admired Lu Yuan for this, and thought that it was true that the younger generation pushed the older generation forward.

"Nothing else." Lao Lu shook his head.

Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. If that was all, then he also knew this part of the information.

He knew that Xu Ruolin had a younger sister, Xu Xiaoyu, who was currently in the third year of junior high school. He didn't know if she would be able to get into No. 1 Middle School next year.

Lao Lu looked at his son who seemed to be caught in the trouble of happiness, and he was immediately furious and slapped his son's shoulder hard.

"Okay, you have their WeChat, right? Call them over. I want to talk to them privately."

Lu Yuan looked at Lao Lu warily: "Dad, what do you want to do? Are you still drunk?"

"You little brat, you only feel good when I scold you, don't you?" Lao Lu thought to himself, son, you're still pretending. "Hurry up and call her over. She's willing to be your guest, so I have to meet her and thank her for taking care of you this semester, right?"

"Is that really all there is to it?"

"Are you going to call me or not? I won't have to go knock on the door myself."

"Okay, okay, I'll call."

Lu Yuan felt helpless and sent WeChat messages to the three girls with his mobile phone. Then Lao Lu sent him back to the bedroom and told him not to eavesdrop.

The road is long and speechless, but there is nothing I can do.

Lao Lu continued to sit on the sofa and "smoke". He had just taken a puff and less than ten seconds after Lu Yuan sent the message, the doorbell rang.

Straightening up, Lao Lu walked to the entrance and opened the door, only to be greeted by a tall girl in a white long-sleeved shirt.

The girl bowed politely.

"Hello uncle, I'm Ye Yuhan."

38. Hey, wife, your son has made great progress.

"Okay, Xiao Ye, right? It's not appropriate to talk at the door, come in and chat first." Lao Lu put on a kind look.

If someone who knew him saw this scene, they would probably be shocked.

"Uncle Lu, you're welcome." Ye Yuhan smiled and followed him.

In the living room, Lao Lu was making tea for Ye Yuhan. Actually, Ye Yuhan liked to drink coffee, but she still sat obediently on the sofa beside her and listened to Lu Cheng's arrangements.

"Don't worry, Lu Yuan is in the bedroom and can't hear our conversation." Lao Lu said casually.

Ye Yuhan folded her hands on her thighs, thought for a while, and said calmly:

"Uncle Lu, are you done with your work?"

Lu Cheng's reaction was not like that of most people whose eyes suddenly became sharp when their information was exposed, nor did his body tremble slightly like in the novel. He just took a sip of tea lightly and waited for Ye Yuhan's next words.

Ye Yuhan lowered her eyes slightly and said politely, "Don't worry, Lu Yuan doesn't know about your situation yet."

At this time, Lu Chenggao glanced at Ye Yuhan.

"Xiaoye, you are so thoughtful."

“Uncle Lu, you’re welcome. This is what I should do.”

Lao Lu admired Ye Yuhan for having such thoughts at this age, and Ye Yuhan also communicated with Lu Cheng with ease.

After a while, the doorbell rang again. This time, Lao Lu went to open the door and brought back Xu Ruolin and Gu Jiuyi who were dressed in normal home clothes.

In fact, the time between the two of them ringing the doorbell and Lu Yuan sending the message was not long, only less than three minutes. The main reason was that Ye Yuhan was too experienced in this. She changed her clothes as soon as she got home and waited for Lu Yuan to send the message. She knew that Uncle Lu would definitely want to see them.

Gu Jiuyi and Xu Ruolin had not yet recovered from the excitement of meeting Uncle Lu. They stayed at Xu Ruolin's house for a long time before they calmed down. When they saw the message sent by Lu Yuan, they realized that they had to change out of their pajamas and put on a set of decent clothes to meet Uncle Lu.

After Xu Ruolin and Gu Jiuyi walked into the living room, they were both stunned when they saw Ye Yuhan already sitting on the sofa.

Ye Yuhan sat there gracefully, seemingly unconcerned, and her slightly raised eyes revealed her pride.

"Hello, Xiao Gu. This is Xiao Xu, right? It's our first meeting. I hope you can be more understanding of my Xiao Yuan if there's anything I haven't taken good care of him." Lao Lu pulled Gu Jiuyi and Xu Ruolin to the sofa to chat.

"Hello, uncle." Gu Jiuyi responded politely.

"It's okay, Lu Yuan treats me very well." Xu Ruolin answered obediently.

Lao Lu nodded, having some understanding of his son's situation.

"I heard that my son's recent grades with your tutoring are pretty good, but I'd like to hear your own thoughts, Xiao Gu. Is that okay?"

"Lu Yuan is a very good teacher, not only where I lived before, but also here, and at school, he is always very good."

Gu Jiuyi's smile was very sweet, a smile that came completely from the heart.

If Lu Yuan was here, he would definitely be curious about why Gu Jiuyi was not nervous at all when facing his father. He thought that when he faced Uncle Gu, he was more or less nervous inside.

However, Lu Yuan forgot that Gu Jiuyi had only become well-behaved after staying with him for a long time. At home in Beijing, Gu Jiuyi was lawless, just like when he first went to her house, she always managed to scold Uncle Gu.

After receiving Gu Jiuyi's answer, Lao Lu was no longer suspicious and looked at Xu Ruolin.

"Uncle Lu..."

Xu Ruolin was a little nervous. She didn't expect that she would meet Uncle Lu in her first year of high school in this life. She was only fifteen years old and hadn't even celebrated her sixteenth birthday yet. Going to a boy's house at this age, she was worried that Uncle Lu would think she was indecent or something.

But Lu Cheng's question took her by surprise.

"I heard that you've always been number one in the grade, Xiao Xu? My good-for-nothing Xiao Yuan always says he wants to surpass you, but he never does. Can you help me supervise him?"

"Huh? Actually... I just happen to be a good student. Lu Yuan is really good." Xu Ruolin was caught off guard. She felt her throat dry and stumbled over her words. "For example, Lu Yuan is the vice president of the student union and is also good at sports. He breaks records. I was just lucky to have surpassed Lu Yuan in studies a few times. Maybe next time Lu Yuan performs better, he'll surpass me."

No matter how reluctant Xu Ruolin was to communicate with adults, he knew that he had to speak up for Lu Yuan at this time.

She believed that Uncle Lu would be easier to talk to than her parents.

Being able to raise Lu Yuan to be so gentle and letting him live alone for such a long time, but under the premise that Lu Yuan's three views are still very positive, and he can even rely on his own efforts to struggle for so long, Xu Ruolin believes that Uncle and Aunt Lu have been away for such a long time only because of their own unavoidable difficulties.

Even though they seldom met, they must have called each other frequently, silently watching over him from a distance where they couldn't see each other.

Uncle Lu looked at Xu Ruolin with some relief.

"Xiao Xu, you're too modest. I'm very clear about my son Xiaoyuan's grades. The teachers all privately say that after Xiaoye graduates, you'll become the face of No. 1 Middle School. I'm very confident in the teaching quality of No. 1 Middle School."

Ye Yuhan and Xu Ruolin did not refute, because they really knew their current level. If they did not let up on the performance, they would be too supermodel-like.

Next, Lao Lu pulled Lu Yuan out of the bedroom and said that tonight was the winter solstice and they would eat glutinous rice balls and make dumplings.

Since Yunhai No. 1 Middle School is a boarding school, the school distributed dumplings and glutinous rice balls to everyone for free at noon as a celebration of the Winter Solstice. Therefore, Lu Yuan and his friends had not originally planned to make them in the evening.

But since Lao Lu came back specially, let’s get started and do it.

Yunhai is in the south, and everyone decided to cook dumplings. Gu Jiuyi also thought it was best to follow local customs.

"Your mother is still busy. Remember to give her a video call later." In the kitchen, Lao Lu instructed Lu Yuan.

"I understand." Lu Yuan nodded.

After the Winter Solstice dinner was over, Ye Yuhan, Xu Ruolin and Gu Jiuyi naturally did not choose to continue living with Lu Yuan, but returned to their own homes. Gu Jiuyi stayed with Xu Ruolin.

Lu Yuan called his mother, and Lao Lu went to take a shower to wash away his fatigue.

After Lao Lu came out, Lu Yuan had finished his call.

"Oh, by the way, Dad, you can sleep in my bedroom." Lu Yuan yawned.

"Then where are you going to sleep?" Lu Cheng looked at the two closed bedrooms, confused for a moment.

Lu Yuan put extra pillows and bedding on the sofa, turned on the heater and said, "That's the girls' bedroom. If you don't want to be considered a pervert, you should stay in my bedroom. I'll sleep on the sofa tonight."

Lao Lu fell silent.

After Lu Yuan fell asleep in the living room, Lao Lu pulled his suitcase into Lu Yuan's bedroom, closed the door, took out his cell phone and made a call.
