Chapter 889 Suspicious identity

Shen Lu wanted to applaud Lu Xingye; you're so confident!

Grandpa Sheng also felt that the young man was too confident.

But he also admires the youthful vigor in him.

"I believe you wouldn't choose someone who isn't even as good as me as Lulu's fiancé."

Seeing that the old man remained silent, Lu Xingye pressed his advantage.

Grandpa Sheng opened his mouth, wanting to refute him, but he had to admit that Lu Xingye was right.

He simply couldn't bear to see his granddaughter suffer.

"I admit, you have a point."

"However... outstanding people are always emerging, and even if you announce to the world that Lulu is so outstanding, there will definitely still be people trying to snatch her up."

Lu Xingye said calmly, "I'll be waiting!"

He also knew that possessing such treasures would inevitably attract covetous eyes.

But he also believes that as long as he can protect it, the treasure will not end up in someone else's hands.

"I'll say it again: try to keep a low profile. Our two families are already a laughing stock for many in the capital. If you and my Xiaolu don't end up together..."

Regardless of which party breaks off the engagement, the woman's reputation will always suffer more than the man's.

“We will succeed.” Lu Xingye couldn’t stand Old Master Sheng’s repeated assumptions about failure.

How could it not work? He's devoted to her.

She had no suitors around her.

Moreover, Shen Lu is pure of heart. With a top-tier guy like him in front of her, how could she possibly be interested in anyone else?

"Alright, Lao Sheng, why are you making things so difficult for the child?"

Grandpa Lu also spoke up for his grandson.

This is his own grandson, and his only grandson. Does Grandpa Sheng not want his son to fulfill his wish of getting married?

No matter who tries to stop him, he won't listen!

Grandpa Sheng glanced at Grandpa Lu: "You didn't raise a daughter, of course you don't know how I feel!"

What about Mrs. Shen and Ms. Qin, who also didn't raise daughters?

They seem to have been caught in the crossfire even though they were lying down.

Oh, no, that's not right either. Although the two of them didn't raise a daughter, they did raise a granddaughter.

Therefore, the only one who actually profited was the Lu family.

Grandpa Lu admitted that his family was the winner.

He grinned and said, "You can't say that. Didn't I also send my grandson away?"

"Your grandson-in-law will definitely be more diligent than your grandson in the future."

Sheng Qingyan, who was adding tea to Old Master Lu's cup, paused: Since Lu Xingye is more diligent than him, shouldn't Lu Xingye be the one to add tea?

However, he couldn't argue with the old men, and soon his movements resumed smoothly.

Shen Lu placed a shrimp into the old man's bowl: "To supplement protein."

Grandpa Sheng immediately beamed with pride, picking up a shrimp and showing off to Grandpa Lu: "Look, my granddaughter is so thoughtful!"

Grandpa Lu was speechless; he couldn't eat too much seafood like shrimp and crab.

But she still stared longingly at Shen Lu, her eyes accusing her: Little Lu, you can't be biased!

Shen Lu placed a piece of stewed lamb chop on the old man's plate: "Please have this."

Grandpa Lu smiled broadly: "Haha, this is good!"

To avoid showing favoritism, Shen Lu served food to all three grandmothers.

However, grandmothers are easier to talk to than grandfathers.

"Lulu, don't worry about us, just eat by yourself," Grandma Dong said with a smile, telling her not to bother.

Ms. Qin also said, "Oh, eat this, corn fritters, it's something you loved to eat when you were little."

This means the same thing as not letting her do anything.

Shen Lu was already full, but she loved this dish when she was a child and still loves it now that she's grown up, so she forced herself to eat two more bites.

Grandma Shen even served her granddaughter a bowl of snow frog soup.

"Girls should drink more beauty and skin-nourishing drinks."

Grandpa Sheng sighed, "How could I have ever thought of Shen Shuqiu as a poor student from the countryside?"

Judging from his mother's knowledge and understanding, she couldn't possibly be a country bumpkin.

Shen Lu accepted the grandmothers' kindness, but she really couldn't eat that much.

I stopped drinking half of the snow frog soup.

After dinner, the old man and the old women chatted together, and they certainly had plenty to talk about.

The party didn't end until 9 p.m.

Shen Lu didn't drive. Old Mrs. Shen, Ms. Qin, and Dong Mingjun were all invited by the old man to stay at the Sheng family home.

However, none of the three agreed.

The hotel room hadn't been refunded, and Mrs. Shen insisted on continuing to stay at the hotel with her old friends.

Ms. Qin felt that living in Shenlu's area was quite nice.

Although Grandpa Sheng felt sorry for the guests, the guests had their own ideas, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Moreover, he is an old man living alone in his old house, so it would be inconvenient for female guests to stay there.

Everyone here has plenty of money, so it's understandable that the old man didn't fulfill his responsibilities as a host immediately.

However, he did mention his granddaughter afterwards.

"Little Deer, how could you not inform Grandpa immediately when your grandma and the others came to the capital?"

Shen Lu could tell that there was no blame in those words.

"It's not that I didn't want to say, it's that I didn't remember." Shen Lu was really telling the truth.

She's been too busy lately to think about all that.

Moreover, she felt that the grandmothers were all coming to her, and she could handle it herself, so there was no need to trouble her grandfather.

Grandpa Sheng listened, then shook his head and sighed, "So you didn't even think of your grandfather at all."

Shen Lu was both amused and exasperated: "Please don't overthink it."

"I just didn't want to cause you any trouble."

Grandpa Sheng patted his granddaughter on the shoulder: "Grandpa is not afraid of trouble, but he is afraid of not being able to entertain her properly."

Shen Lu gave a perfunctory reply, indicating that she would definitely say it next time.

The old man then let her off the hook.

This gave Lu Xingye the opportunity to take Shen Lu back to her school.

Grandpa Sheng had actually thought highly of Lu Xingye, this junior, and even though he felt like his own cabbage had been eaten by a pig, he still didn't say anything.

Shen Lu got into the car. The air conditioning was quite strong inside, and she touched her arm.

Lu Xingye immediately instructed the driver to turn up the air conditioning temperature.

"Has the matter with that person at the school gate this afternoon been resolved?" Lu Xingye only now had time to ask her about it.

Shen Lu was taken aback: "What else needs to be done? Didn't my brother already have Teacher Wei take the person to the hospital?"

Lu Xingye glanced at her and thought that the girl was sometimes intelligent and insightful, and sometimes very naive.

“You rescued people on the food street before. Although the people there haven’t made any moves yet, it’s possible they’re gathering strength.”

"How do you know that the girl who almost hit you didn't really mean to hit you?"

Don't blame Lu Xingye for conspiracy theories; it's just that Shen Lu has gotten into a lot of trouble lately.

Who knows whether someone bumped into her accidentally out of recklessness or on purpose?

Shen Lu really didn't think that much about it; she thought that what happened last time was over.

"How could they have gotten there? Have Bai Yu and Tie Zhu already evacuated?"

Lu Xingye disagreed with Shen Lu's statement.

Shen Lu also realized that if the matter was really over, then the two of them should have left and wouldn't still be by her side.

He was skateboarding right in front of the school gate when he rushed over so fast that the bodyguards didn't even have time to react.

And no one expected that Shen Lu would be injured in such an unexpected way.
