“Why did you hang up the call for me?” Jiang Yining asked.

“Don’t you hate hearing nonsense?” Lu Zhi passed the phone to the housekeeper. “If the old madam calls again, don’t pass the phone to Young Madam.”

“Yes.”

The housekeeper held the landline phone and quickly retreated.

Indeed, Jiang Yining didn’t like being nagged at. She listened patiently to Old Madam Lu firstly because of Lu Zhi. Secondly, she was a little envious of Chen Kexin who was unconditionally spoiled by Old Madam Lu.

Keeping her thoughts to herself, she turned and picked out a white school uniform as she muttered, “How dare you say that your grandmother is talking nonsense? Aren’t you afraid that she will get even with you when she hears that?”

“Only the three of us heard what I said just now. The housekeeper won’t dare to say anything, and you won’t tell the old madam either. How will she know?” Lu Zhi asked.

Jiang Yining was speechless.

Why hadn’t she noticed that Lu Zhi was so cunning?

“Mr. Lu, please leave. I need to change my clothes.”

Jiang Yining waved her school uniform in front of him.

Lu Zhi said with a hand in his pocket, “You look better in pale yellow clothes. Wearing black or white all day makes you look dull. Young people should wear more colors.”

“I like it. Why do you care?”

Jiang Yining saw that he wasn’t leaving and was even commenting on her clothes.

She threw down her school uniform and personally “invited” him out.

Lu Zhi was pushed out of the door.

He held on to the door frame and turned his head. “Xiao Lang called just now. He said he wanted to thank you for giving him the score and wanted to treat you to a meal.”

“There’s no need…”

Jiang Yining did not regret giving the score to Xiao Lang. After all, he was the one who really understood Elder Liang.

She also didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore.

She wanted to stay in the Lu family and continue to investigate Lin Yan’s whereabouts.

Being sandwiched between Lu Zhi and Xiao Lang, the two young talents, was too eye-catching.

It was not what she wanted.

“Okay. I’ve already helped you decline his invitation.” Lu Zhi answered without hesitation.

Jiang Yining was speechless.

He had already declined his invitation?

She hadn’t even been consulted, and he had already decline the invitation on her behalf?

Although it was to her liking, but…

“Don’t get too close to random people in future.” Lu Zhi lifted his chin slightly and reminded her. “Especially with a playboy like Xiao Lang. You have to be more vigilant.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Didn’t he already tell her that last night?

Why did he tell her again today?

Jiang Yining felt his behavior strange but she didn’t think too much about it and assumed that he was just being kind.

After closing the door, Jiang Yining glanced at the dress on the bed and wiggled her fingers.

Was her usual attire really that dull?

She hesitated for a few seconds before she took out a canary yellow dress from the closet and waved it in front of the mirror.

But she gave up in the end.

Bright colors like that was more suitable for Jiang Rou.

At the old Lu residence…

Chen Kexin coughed so hard that her ribs hurt. She has drunk a lot of medicine, but she didn’t get better.

Old Madam Lu was so angry that she was like an erupting volcano.

“Are all of you trash? If you can’t even treat such a minor illness, what’s the use of having you!”

The servants trembled and did not dare to speak.

“What are you waiting for? Get a doctor over here. If Kexin’s illness doesn’t recover, all of you will be fired!”

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone except Old Madam Lu and Chen Kexin left the room.

Old Madam Lu suppressed her anger, walked up to the bed and comforted, “Kexin, don’t be angry with yourself. If we have any problems, we can solve them together. Listen to Grandma….”
