Chapter 118 - My Friend

Chapter 118: My Friend

Chu Sihan was a famous person in Huang Yang Town. Back then, he was ranked first in the country for every examination.
It could be said that from the academy to the private school, almost everyone knew his name.
Not to mention others, even Mdm Xu, who had not attended school before, knew of Chu Sihan.
However, such a life was extraordinary to begin with. In addition, he had been studying in the capital since he was young, so few people had seen him.
Everyone only knew of Chu Sihan and knew that he was amazing. However, they did not know how he looked.
However, Lu Sheng’s words sounded like she had seen him in person before.
Seeing everyone fall silent, Lu Sheng looked up and asked suspiciously, “What happened?”
Why were they looking at her like that?
“You’ve seen Lord Chu before?” He Lai asked.
When she heard that, Lu Sheng finally understood why everyone was looking at her like that.
She nodded honestly. “Yes, he’s my friend.”
He was the one who gave her the horse carriage that cost a hundred taels.
Of course, Lu Sheng did not dare to say this for fear of scaring them.
However, she did not know that her words “my friend” were enough to leave them speechless.
“Cousin, are you alright?” He Dong asked weakly.
Hysteria was not a small illness.
“I’m fine. Why?”
Lu Sheng looked suspiciously at him.
“Haha, everyone, hurry up and eat. The dishes will turn cold soon.”
He Lai greeted them with a dry smile.
No one else believed her. Only He Zhang looked thoughtfully at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng could not be bothered to explain. After hearing He Lai’s words, she lowered her head and ate silently.
She had to admit that He Zhang’s culinary skills were really good. He could cook such a delicious home-cooked meal. Lu Sheng ate three bowls of rice in one go.
The restaurant had not opened yet, but she could already see herself earning a lot of money in the future.
After dinner, the group chatted in the courtyard.
Speaking of Lu Ran, He Hu could not help but sigh. “If this child had focused on his studies, he would not be so shabby now.”
Lu Ran was very smart. When he came over previously, he could answer anything that was asked.
However, ever since Mdm He passed away, he had changed. He became a man of few words and attended to things half-heartedly.
Lu Sheng’s change surprised everyone.
Mdm Xu patted Lu Sheng’s shoulder lightly and smiled. “When this child came over in the past, she would always lower her head and not speak. Her voice was also low. If you don’t listen carefully, you won’t be able to hear her.”
Lu Sheng smiled shyly. She scratched her head and said, “Actually, Brother has become better too. He has returned to a private school to study.”
“What?”
He Qin was surprised. “Ah Ran really went back to school?”
When he met Lu Ran in town previously, he wanted to find him. However, seeing that there were a few well-dressed young masters beside him, he did not dare to go up to him.
Lu Sheng nodded. “Yes, he has been studying for a few months.”
“That’s good!”
He Qin nodded.
He Lai was shocked. “So you don’t know?”
He thought that He Qin and Mdm Zhao knew about it, so he did not mention this in front of the He family.
As they were studying in East City, he and Lu Ran met frequently.
However, Lu Ran was in a private school while he was in Ying Tian Academy.
He once suggested inviting Lu Ran to their academy so that they would have companionship. However, Lu Ran rejected him.
“You also know that he went back to study?” He Hu asked He Lai.
“I know.” He Lai nodded. “I’ve even bumped into him a few times.”
When Mdm Zhao heard that, she wiped her tears and nodded with a smile. “It’s good that he’s willing to go back to study!”
