Chapter 30.3
“At that time, I didn’t sleep or eat because I couldn’t accept the death of my father. All I did was cry.” Li Xining let out a sigh and continued. “I hid in the attic stairwell and cried all day, and when my mother came to persuade me to eat, I even got angry at her. I asked her, Why doesn’t she cry?” Li Xining sighed and said guiltily, “Now that I think about it, I realise I was ignorant at that time. How could I talk to my mother like that? She must be feeling more uncomfortable than me.”
Lu Yuling replied, “It’s the same; I’m more useless than you. Not only did I cry, but I also escaped from reality. I didn’t want to go to my mother’s funeral because I couldn’t accept it, and then I secretly ran to school and hid in the most remote stairwell to cry. It was winter vacation at that time, and I thought no one would notice.”
Hearing this, Li Xining couldn’t help but smile and reply, “I came to complete the transfer procedures.”
Lu Yuling: “That’s why I didn’t see you next semester.”
He even thought that he would never see her in this life, but fortunately, she came back.
Compared with never being able to meet again in a lifetime, a gap of two and a half years was not a long time.
Li Xining explained, “My mother was going to Dongfu to expand the company’s business, so she took me to Dongfu. During those years, I was there and came back to attend high school.”
“You know that on the registration day, I recognised you at a glance,” Lu Yuling said with a slight smile.
Li Xining originally wanted to say “me too,” but then she thought about it and realised that she didn’t recognise him because he had changed a lot. He had gotten a lot taller and had changed a lot from a beautiful boy to someone else: a defiant boy who nobody wanted to cross.
She didn’t want to say, “I knew it was you after confirming,” because Princess Lu would be mad at her for pretending. So, she just said, “I knew it was you too.”
However, those words also made Princess Lu upset. “Hmph… You know that was me, but you act like you don’t know and you didn’t come to talk to me.”
Li Xining got angry when this was brought up. “Are you still being fair? On the first day of training, you got into a fight with others, and on the second day, you were controlling the class. Afterwards, you didn’t come to school regularly, you got into arguments, and you changed the colour of your hair. And even you didn’t hand over your homework.” Li Xining was really mad this time. “What else… Oh, when you took the exams, you were in last place and ranked below the top 800. Should I talk to a disobedient young boy like you?”
The more she talked, the madder Li Xining got. If people’s eyes could kill others, Lu Yuling would be dead by now.
Lu Yuling realised that he got on the wrong foot, but he didn’t want to back off. He stood up straight and looked at Li Xining. Then he said confidently, “Although I did some bad things like fighting, skipping school, and dyeing my hair, I didn’t fall in love at a young age. Ow, why are you hitting me again.”Lu Yuling sighed and put down the knife. He felt angry and resentful, saying, “Oh, you cruel person.”
Seeing the boy was getting angry, Li Xining started laughing at Lu Yuling and asked, “Why are you being so annoying? Hahaha…”
“You said you don’t like me again. Why do you dislike me? Have you ever seen a princess like me who is so good and skilled?” Lu Yuling picked up the kitchen knife again and cut the vegetables carefully.
Li Xining made a noise and said, “Just do it, and I’ll see what you can give birth to!”
Lu Yuling was very confident and said, “I can give birth to a student who will be the best in the class.”
Hearing that, Li Xining said to Lu Yuling in a serious tone, “If your son ever gets the highest score in the exam, I think you should have a DNA test done to confirm his identity. Maybe it’s because you got the wrong kid.”
Lu Yuling: “Hey, Li Xining, why can’t my son come first in class? Do you think less of me or my son?”
‘He talks like he actually has a firstborn son now.’ Li Xining laughed at him angrily in her heart. “I don’t look down on you, nor do I look down on your son. I am speaking with facts. Your grades are stable, just outside the 800th place. How can your son be ranked first in his grade?”
Lu Yuling asked confidently, “Do you think I can’t do it?”
‘Some window paper cannot be pierced.’ Li Xining was surprised and then turned red.
Lu Yuling was surprised and then understood what he had said. His face turned red, but he was strong-minded. ‘Sure, just keep your head down and keep chopping the vegetables like nothing happened.
Both of them were quiet; the only sound in the quiet room was the chopping of the vegetables.
After some time, Li Xining suddenly said, “Okay, then let’s see if you can get the 400th place.” Then she gave him a provocation look.
Lu Yuling put the knife on the chopping board and said to Li Xining, “Let’s make a bet. Whoever loses will call the other party father.”
Who knew whether this bet would be successful in the future? After all, no one could tell what would happen in the future. Yes, but Li Xining still accepted the invitation to fight. “Okay, let’s bet.”
After she agreed, Lu Yuling reached out to cover his stomach again and started to show his acting skills again. “Son, you have to live up to my expectations. We can’t let this scumbag at the door look down on our father and son.”
Li Xining stared at him and said angrily, “Drama queen!”
Lu Yuling wanted to keep acting, but Li Xining’s phone rang, and he stopped.
Have a nice day!
