After Being Forced to Become a Bigshot, I Only Want to be Normal

Chapter 32

Sudden Arrival

Without a word, he pulled out a chair and sat on the edge.

The two of them continued with their work and did not pay him any attention.

Lu Qing picked up the test paper on the table and took a glimpse at it.

Sixth grade?

He looked up at the two, then at the test paper in his hand. On it was Lu Jingzhi’s crooked handwriting.

“…”

Why is he doing sixth-grade papers when he isn’t even in first grade?

“Sister, is this correct?”

Lu Ning took a look at the test paper and immediately smiled. “Yes! That’s amazing, Jingzhi!”

She smiled and patted his head. Lu Jingzhi smiled happily and even rubbed his face bashfully.

Lu Qing: “…”

Is this even his brother who never smiled?

Lu Ning put away the test papers. “I’ve got a good grasp of where you’re at. I’ll find a couple of calligraphy booklets for you to practice on in two days.”

Lu Jingzhi nodded obediently. “Okay.”

“Are you tired? Do you want…”

Before she could finish, the door opened.

Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi walked in. “Little Ning, our Little Darling, Daddy and Mommy are back.”

She looked up and saw Lu Qing. “Why are you back?”

Lu Qing: “…”

Why do I feel that I’m being spurned?

Shen Yunci ignored him. After changing her shoes, she walked over and looked at the two of them. “Oh, you’re studying. I’ll cut some fruits for you, we’ll have dinner later.”

Both of them nodded obediently.

Lu Ning tidied the papers and books and brought them back to her room, while Lu Jingzhi ate fruits while watching television in the living room.

Lu Qing watched them for a long time. When he realized no one was bothering themselves with him, he went back to his room.

When he closed the door, he heard a phone ring in Lu Ning’s room.

…

Lu Ning took the call, changed her clothes, and opened the door to go out.

“Dad, Mom, I’m going out for a while.”

“Huh? Where are you going so late at night? Do you need Daddy to send you?”

Lu Ning put her cap on and lowered the brim.

“There’s no need, Dad. I’ll just ride the bicycle downstairs. A friend’s returned from overseas and wants to get together, I’ll come back right afterwards.”

Raising his spatula, Lu Zhi asked, “Then are you coming back for dinner?”

“Yes, I’ll be back for dinner.”

“Be careful on the road. Call Daddy if you need anything.”

“Okay.”

Lu Ning shut the door. When she went downstairs, she received a message with their location and rode her bicycle to the coordinates.

Gu Zi paced back and forth beside the car, while Gu Chen leaned against the door and peered at him.

“Hey, stop that.”

Hearing this, Gu Zi approached him. “Aren’t you excited? Our sudden appearance must have given the Boss a jump. I wonder if she misses me.”

Gu Chen’s voice was chilly. He took a box of cigarettes from his pocket. “She just moved house and is very busy. Why would she have time to think about you?”

“That’s right. I wonder if her new place is comfortable for her.”

As he spoke, he heard an ear-piercing screech.

The two of them turned around and saw a girl in simple sportswear stop her bicycle by the roadside and walk over. The lowered brim of her cap concealed her face.

The two of them were dumbfounded. Lu Ning walked over and took a cigarette from Gu Chen’s cigarette box; she held it between her fingers and leaned against the car lazily.

“Holy crap!”

Gu Zi could not help but shout.

Lu Ning raised the brim of her cap and looked at him. “Why are you guys here?”

Gu Zi immediately came over, all smiles. “Boss, did you miss me?”

Lu Ning shoved his overly close face away. “You call me every damn day, there’s no chance for me to miss you.”

Gu Chen chuckled and lit both their cigarettes.
