In that way, some words that some people said would be like a brand engraved in the bones. It would only become more and more profound with the passage of time.
At lunchtime, Lu Hai called back and said that he wouldn’t be back at noon. From the phone, it could be heard that the couple was in high spirits. They were probably high from looking at houses.
Lu Sheng ordered take out. After receiving it, he called Lu Qinghe out to eat together.
Lu Qinghe, who had been practising body refining techniques the whole morning, seemed to have become a new person. There was a sense of confidence between her eyebrows that couldn’t be hidden.
She no longer bickered with Lu Sheng. Instead, she regarded him as the closest person.
Lu Qinghe was obviously starving. She had completely turned into a machine that ate rice at full power.
As she stuffed rice into her mouth, she said to Lu Sheng, “Brother, I finally know why you can eat so much. The effect of the Body Refining Technique you taught me is really too good!”
“In the future, when it’s not just the two of us, don’t mention this.” Lu Sheng knocked Lu Qinghe’s head with chopsticks.
“Oh, oh, I know.” Lu Qinghe reacted and nodded quickly. She was very obedient.
Lu Sheng casually put a piece of meat in Lu Qinghe’s bowl and said, “I will train you well in these few months. If you don’t understand anything about martial arts, just ask me. After the college entrance examination, I probably won’t have time to guide you …”
Lu Qinghe’s eating speed gradually slowed down. Her expression was a little complicated. In the past, she hated seeing Lu Sheng every day. Now that she heard that he would soon be leaving this home for a long time, she felt a little reluctant.
“Brother, where are you going for the college entrance examination? Dongning University of Martial Arts? With your strength, it should be easy for you to get into Dongning University, right?” Lu Qinghe asked.
“I’m not going to Dongning University.”
“Then where are you going?”
Lu Sheng put down his chopsticks. His eyes seemed to be looking into the distance through the window. He said calmly, “I’m going to Jingdu Province.”
“Oh …” Lu Qinghe let out a long ‘oh’ and said in realization, “You want to get into Sage Martial University, right …”
Lu Qinghe stopped talking. Her eyes turned as if calculating the probability of Lu Sheng getting into Sage Martial University.
“Eat.” Lu Sheng calmed down and told Lu Qinghe, “I’m going out in the afternoon. Practice well at home. I’ll teach you actual combat when I come back.”
“Okay, Brother.”

In the afternoon, at the same restaurant as last time, at the same place. Lu Sheng and He Ling Su sat opposite each other, one listening quietly, the other speaking attentively.
“… Spiritual Muscle and Blood Strengthening Decoction’s initial market price is 49,888 yuan. The price isn’t too high, but it’s not something that ordinary people can afford. I’m targeting the high-end customers with a certain level of economic strength. The sales are pretty good. In less than a week, one-fifth of the first batch of 200 servings of Spiritual Muscle and Blood Strengthening Decoction has been sold, and the demand and customer retention is very high. I believe that after a period, when word-of-mouth has spread about us, it will definitely become a ‘star product’ in Baihe City and even the entire Dongning Province …”
Lu Sheng listened to He Ling Su’s report and nodded.
“I’m at ease leaving the products with you. Do you still have sufficient funds?”
He Ling Su replied, “For now, I can turn it around. But when the sales increasing, I’ll definitely have to open more branches. At that time, I might need to get a loan from the bank. I don’t have much money left.”
Lu Sheng took a sip of the lemonade in front of him and said lightly, “After a while, I’ll give you another sum of money. You don’t have to worry too much about the initial funds …”
“Okay.” He Ling Su nodded.
At this time, a couple who looked like high school students walked past the restaurant. They were holding dolls that had just been grabbed from the claw machine, talking and laughing.
“You … are there a few more months until the college entrance examinations?
Lu Sheng nodded and said lightly, “Yes, so I won’t go out during this time. I’ll focus on preparing for the college entrance examination. I’ll leave the store to you. After a while, I might have to move. When the time comes, I’ll send you the address of the new house.”
“Okay.” He Ling Su’s expression was a bit complicated. Sometimes, it didn’t even occur to her. This man who sat in front of her, who exuded an oppressive aura, was actually a high school student who hadn’t even finished the college entrance examination.
Half a year ago, she probably wouldn’t have thought that the fate of the He family would be in the hands of such a person. Every time He Ling Su woke up in the middle of the night, she would ask herself if she was crazy.
But based on the current situation, her decision was right.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”
After sitting for a while, He Ling Su realized that she had nothing to talk about with Lu Sheng after reporting her work, so she stood up and said that she wanted to leave.
“There are still a lot of things to do in the shop. Oh, by the way, I promoted Ma Fei to store manager.”
Lu Sheng’s mind quickly flashed with the image of a young man lying on the counter playing with his phone. “Do as you see fit,” he said indifferently. “I won’t interfere.”
“Yes.” He Ling Su did not say anything else. She nodded and quickly left the restaurant.
After the steak incident last time, He Ling Su was already traumatized from eating at the same table as Lu Sheng.
Through the reflection of the window, Lu Sheng watched He Ling Su’s back slowly disappear into the distance. He was not worried that He Ling Su would betray him in the future when she grew stronger.
The He family seemed to be peaceful now, but in fact, they were plagued with trouble. Sooner or later, they would come to him for help. And even if there wasn’t any external pressure, he, Lu Sheng, would still be able to give out something.
Naturally, he would be able to get it back.
“Waiter.” Lu Sheng raised his hand and called out. “Fifty steaks, to go.”
“Yes, sir, please wait a moment.”
When Lu Sheng slowly returned home with fifty steaks, Lu Qinghe was still in the room practising the body refining technique he taught her in the morning.
Lu Sheng called her out and taught her practical combat skills.
After entering the first form of the Absolute Martial Path, Lu Sheng’s attainments in practical combat were probably much better than the practical combat teachers in Lu Qinghe’s school.
After teaching for half an afternoon, he tortured Lu Qinghe to the point that she didn’t want to continue any more. The way Lu Qinghe looked at Lu Sheng had completely changed.
Lu Qinghe suddenly realized that her brother’s strength was far more terrifying than she had imagined.
It was a sense of oppression that bordered on despair. It was like a mountain in front of you. He didn’t need to do anything. Just looking down at you was enough to make you crawl.
It was almost five o ’clock when Lu Hai and Zheng Yufen came back.
“Oh, it’s late, it’s late. We won’t be able to cook dinner in time …” Zheng Yufen was so anxious that she kept muttering and complained to Lu Hai, “It’s all your fault. After seeing one, you want to see another. There’s no end to it …”
