Lord Chu's Wife is Wild

Chapter 535: Senior Chu Shouldn’t Reject Her

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Compared to Jiang Jing, Zhou Qiong hated Ling Fei more.

She, Pei Yan, and Ling Fei could be said to have grown up together. From kindergarten to high school, they were practically classmates.

However, when they were in Year Two, she chose humanities while Pei Yan and Ling Fei chose science. Thus, the three of them were not in the same class.

In the past, Pei Yan’s attitude towards her and Ling Fei was the same. He would ignore them.

However, later on, she gradually realized that Pei Yan seemed to be more patient with Ling Fei.

Most of the time, although he looked impatient with Ling Fei on the surface, he could always agree to her unreasonable requests.

However, she seemed to be walking further away from him now.

Sometimes, when she specially went to talk to him, he would leave after brushing her off.

“She’s indeed beautiful. However, you’re prettier.”

The boy suddenly said.

Zhou Qiong smiled, but she was not happy.

She insisted on being the school belle because she wanted to prove to Pei Yan that she was better than Ling Fei.

—————

Lu Sheng looked for Chu Yan as she walked. She only saw Chu Yan flipping through the books when she reached the fifth row of bookshelves.

She initially thought that Chu Yan was reading some books. When she walked in, she realized that the row was filled with novels and miscellaneous books.

“He’s so handsome!”

“He seemed to have walked out from a comic.”

“He’s clearly more handsome than the boys in the comics!”

“Does such good looks really exist?”

Lu Sheng had just entered the fifth row of bookshelves when she saw a few girls standing at the side. They were currently staring at Chu Yan in a daze.

Thankfully, they knew that this was the library and lowered their voices.

When Lu Sheng walked past them, she specially glanced at them.

The four girls did not look old. They should be freshmen like her.

Seeing Lu Sheng walk over, they immediately stopped discussing. When she walked past, they said softly, “Isn’t that girl Jiang Jing from Class One?”

“It’s her. I’ve seen her pictures on Tieba. I didn’t expect her to be so beautiful!”

“Look, she seems to be walking towards Senior Chu.”

“Does she want to confess to Senior Chu too? Three people were rejected just now.”

“She’s so pretty. Senior Chu shouldn’t refuse her, right?”

“If I were Senior Chu, I would definitely not refuse her!”

…

When Lu Sheng heard those comments, she could not help but raise her eyebrows.

She did not expect Chu Yan to be confessed to by three people in just an hour.

Sensing a few gazes on her from behind, Lu Sheng did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Were they trying to see if she was confessing? Or were they trying to see if she would be rejected?

“You’re here?”

She had just approached when Chu Yan suddenly turned his head. When he saw that it was her, his unapproachable aura immediately weakened.

Lu Sheng looked at the book in his hand and realized that it was a fantasy novel.

She did not expect Chu Yan to read novels too.

“Here.” She passed the iced tea over. “I went to the milk tea shop with Sisi and Mingyue just now. I didn’t know what you wanted to drink, so I bought you some iced tea.”

Lu Sheng felt that boys who did not like to drink milk tea would usually drink iced tea.

“Thank you!”

The moment Chu Yan received the iced tea from Lu Sheng, a cold gasp was heard from behind.

Lu Sheng turned back and the four heads retracted immediately. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“So, Jiang Jing and Senior Chu already know each other!”

“Indeed, good-looking people are often together. Why can’t I be the good-looking one?”

“I want to become prettier too!”

Listening to the muttering, Lu Sheng pursed her lips and tried her best to suppress her laughter.

Holding the fantasy novel in his hand, Chu Yan took a sip of iced tea and said to Lu Sheng in a low voice, “Are you hungry?”

Lu Sheng shook her head. “I just finished my milk tea. I’m not hungry yet.”

“What do you want to eat?” Chu Yan asked again.

Lu Sheng thought for a while and said, “I want to eat duck blood and vermicelli soup.”

Chu Yan was stunned.

To be honest, he had heard of and seen this before, but he had not tried it yet.

“But is there anywhere near the school that sells this?”

Lu Sheng was new here and had not finished shopping at the shops near the school. She did not know where there was duck blood and vermicelli soup sold nearby.

“Wait!”

Chu Yan took out his phone and sent a message to someone.

After a while, he said, “The third shop to the left of the gate sells it. It’s said to be delicious.”

“That’s good. Are we leaving now?”

“Yes.”

Chu Yan nodded and placed the novel back. Then, he gestured for her to walk in front.

Lu Sheng understood and hurried to the front.

When she passed by the four girls, she specially glanced at them.

However, they did not look at her. Instead, they lowered their heads to look at the book in their hands. It was unknown if they were really looking or deliberately avoiding her gaze.

As the two of them walked, they received a lot of speculative gazes.

“That’s Chu Yan and Jiang Jing, right?”

“The new school belle and school beau. What’s their relationship?”

“I saw them at a restaurant last week. Could they be a couple?”

“Perhaps they’re siblings?”

“One has the surname Jiang, while the other has the surname Chu. Do you think they’re siblings?”

“Maybe cousins.”

“Chu Yan’s cousin is Fu Sisi from Year Two.”

…

Lu Sheng listened as she walked and could not help but sigh.

She did not expect the children to like gossip too.

When they entered the elevator, everyone inside sized them up from time to time.

However, the two of them did not react and only stood at the side indifferently.

If they were said to be a couple, they were not as close as other couples.

However, they looked at each other more intimately than just friends.

Hence, everyone in the elevator guessed that the two of them were in the midst of a crush.

Lu Sheng, who came out of the elevator, could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

To be honest, in such a small space with so many people, it made one feel suffocated.

“Cousin, Sheng Sheng!”

Lu Sheng and Chu Yan had just reached the school gate when they saw Fu Sisi and Yu Mingyue waiting at the entrance.

Chu Yan subconsciously frowned and looked at Fu Sisi. He asked faintly, “Why are you here?”

Fu Sisi chuckled and said, “You asked me about duck blood and vermicelli soup just now. I suddenly want to eat it too.”

So Chu Yan was asking Fu Sisi just now?

Lu Sheng smiled secretly.

“Cousin, didn’t you not like these? Why do you suddenly want to try them today?”

Lu Sheng smiled and said, “It’s not that your cousin wants to eat, but I do.”

“Oh!”

Fu Sisi and Yu Mingyue narrowed their eyes at her and Chu Yan with ambiguous expressions.

Lu Sheng did not think much of this.

Chu Yan was Chu Sihan to begin with. He was indeed her ambiguous partner.

“Let’s go. There won’t be any seats later.”

Fu Sisi held Yu Mingyue’s arm with one hand and Lu Sheng’s with the other. She led the way.

It was five in the afternoon, which was also the time for students to return to school. There were a lot of people entering and exiting the school gate.

Lu Sheng and the rest had eye-catching looks to begin with. In addition, with Chu Yan walking behind them, they instantly became the focus of everyone.

When they reached the shop selling duck blood and vermicelli soup, it was already full.

Coincidentally, a table of people had just paid the bill and left when they found seats.

“Auntie, four duck blood and vermicelli soup. Big bowls.”

Fu Sisi shouted at the busy lady boss the moment she sat down.

“Okay.”

The lady boss replied warmly, but her hands did not stop moving. One could tell that she was experienced.

Soon, four bowls of duck blood and vermicelli soup were served. The waiter asked if they wanted rice, but they shook their heads and rejected him.

Lu Sheng could not wait to take a sip of the soup. It was delicious and tasted more authentic than anything she had eaten before.

“This restaurant tastes good, right?” Fu Sisi asked with a smile.

Lu Sheng nodded. “Indeed.”

“It’s even better if you add some chili!” As Yu Mingyue spoke, she scooped a spoonful of chili and placed it in.

The three of them were already enjoying their meal. Only Chu Yan was still holding his chopsticks.

“Try it. It’s delicious.”

Lu Sheng swallowed the vermicelli in her mouth and said to him.

Chu Yan nodded gently and started eating.

He thought it would be difficult to eat, but it tasted good.

The four of them ate for twenty minutes before leaving.

“Why don’t I see Shi Yi, Yun Ting, and the rest?”

On the way back, Lu Sheng could not help but ask curiously.

Yu Mingyue said, “They’re not here. They’re in Erzhong.”

“Why?” Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Is it because their results are bad?”

“No!” Fu Sisi smiled and said, “They followed Cousin because he was in Erzhong previously. Although their results are not as good as Cousin’s, their results in Erzhong are still good.”

Lu Sheng nodded in realization. “Then… Chu Yan has already transferred over. Aren’t they coming over as well?”

Fu Sisi shrugged. “Anyway, the college entrance examination is coming up. It doesn’t matter where they study. Can’t they enroll in the same school when they’re in college?”

“That’s true.”

Lu Sheng smiled.

She looked at Chu Yan and asked, “Ah Yan, which university do you want to enroll in?”

Chu Yan thought for a while and said lightly, “Capital University.”

When Fu Sisi heard that, she said in a low voice, “But Aunt and Uncle want you to go abroad.”

Chu Yan said lightly, “Outstanding people are outstanding everywhere.”

Lu Sheng chuckled and gave him a thumbs up.

After sending Fu Sisi and Yu Mingyue back to the dormitory, Chu Yan sent Lu Sheng to her dormitory before leaving.

Lu Sheng thought of Yang Chunmei. She remembered that she lived in dormitory 401.

Her dormitory was on the fifth floor. Recalling what had happened today, she wanted to visit Yang Chunmei.

However, when she reached the door, she heard Yang Chunmei’s voice on the phone.

“Mom, I haven’t found a job yet. Can you give me a hundred yuan first?”

Lu Sheng did not hear what was said on the other end of the phone. She only heard Yang Chunmei fall silent for a while before suddenly choking up and saying, “You can give Brother three hundred yuan every week. What’s wrong with giving me a hundred yuan? From junior high until now, if I wasn’t forced, when would I have asked you for money?”

“Am I your daughter or not? You only have Brother in your eyes. What about me? I’m only sixteen years old. I’ve been working as a temporary worker to earn living expenses since I was thirteen. Brother is the same age as me now. Why should he have living expenses without doing anything, but I have to earn money myself?”

“Forget it. It’s up to you whether you want to give it to me or not.”

The moment she hung up, Yang Chunmei’s muffled cries could be heard.

Lu Sheng gave up on knocking. She lightened her footsteps and turned to go downstairs.

She went to the dining room to get a meal before returning to 401.

The three people in Yang Chunmei’s dormitory were all non-resident students. They only stayed in the afternoon but not at night.

When she returned, the cries had stopped. She was about to knock when the door was opened.

Seeing her standing outside the door, Yang Chunmei was stunned.

Then, she forced a smile and asked, “Jiang Jing, why are you here?”

“Oh, I ate outside with two friends today. Chu Yan gave me this meal, but I’m already full. I thought that you might not have eaten yet, so I wanted to ask if you wanted to eat.”

Yang Chunmei hesitated and said, “Senior Chu bought it for you. You’re giving it to me? It’s not appropriate, right?”

“What’s inappropriate about that?”

Lu Sheng carried the lunch box into the dormitory and placed it on her table. She smiled at her and said, “Hurry up and eat. If you don’t want it and I won’t eat it, wouldn’t it be a waste?”

Yang Chunmei smiled. “Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”

She only had thirty yuan left. Because of Zhu Ling and the rest, she did not even get her salary today.

She could not find a new job now, so she could only use money sparingly to see if she could survive this week.

“Why are you being so polite?” Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow at her. “Hurry up and eat. It’ll turn cold soon.”

“Then, sit for a while. I’ll eat first.”

“Okay.”

Lu Sheng sat down on the other side of her bed and took out her phone to play a video.

Yang Chunmei opened the lunch box. When she saw the dishes inside, she could not help but click her tongue. “This Senior Chu treats you so well. Not only did he order dishes, but he even added a bowl of black chicken soup for you.”

“Really?”

Lu Sheng smiled. “Although he looks cold, he’s actually quite thoughtful.”

“That’s great!”

Yang Chunmei said enviously, “If my future boyfriend is half as good as Senior Chu, I’ll be satisfied.”

Lu Sheng smiled and lowered her head to continue watching the video.

After Yang Chunmei finished her meal, it was already past six in the evening.

Lu Sheng stood up and said, “It’s almost time for evening class. I have to go back and take a shower.”

“You haven’t washed up yet?” Yang Chunmei packed the lunch box and said, “Then, hurry up and wash up. Send me a message after you’re done. Let’s go for our evening class together.”

“Okay.”

Lu Sheng nodded and left.

She returned to her dormitory. After taking a shower and drying her hair, it was already seven in the evening.

The school closed at ten minutes past seven. Evening class ended half past nine in the evening.

Lu Sheng combed her hair, took her book, and went downstairs to find Yang Chunmei.

The moment they entered the class, the bell rang.

When the two of them walked past Zhu Ling, Zhu Ling looked up at them and quickly lowered her head.

Her gaze was filled with displeasure as usual, but her arrogance was weaker than before.

Perhaps because Lu Sheng called Principal Gao today to complain about Gao Li, she became wary.

Yang Chunmei did not return to her seat. Instead, she moved over to sit with Lu Sheng.

During this period, Teacher Li came over for a while. After that, no more teachers came over.

As they were in the top class, everyone was very self-aware.

Lu Sheng felt that this was good.

Because in this case, no one would say anything even if she was in a daze.
