Chapter 10: A Life Where You Can Close Your Eyes with Peace of Mind

"Miss Wu, when I was still calling you Miss Wu, please pay attention to your current identity, you are not the heir of the Li Consortium, let alone the fiancée of the patriarch of the Brown family! The story of Cinderella only appears in fairy tales, and reality is not a fairy tale! Even if there are so many opportunities, aren't you still being beaten back to the prototype? This kind of place is not for you, if you don't want to make a fool of yourself, it's better to leave! ”

Wu Ling'er stretched out her hand and scratched her head: "But I just came, this place feels quite comfortable, I don't want to leave yet!" What to do? Ye Tian, someone is going to drive me away! ”

Seeing Wu Ling'er being treated so rudely, Ye Tian's brows furrowed, and just when he was about to say something, Luo Zhili had already stood up: "Third uncle, in front of the public, please don't do rude things!" ”

The perpetrator was holding a cup and looked at everyone nervously and innocently: "I'm sorry, I was about to stand up when this gentleman rushed over and accidentally poured tea on his clothes. Are you okay sir? I'm so sorry! ”

"Wu Ling'er, don't be too arrogant!!" Seeing Wu Ling'er pretending to take out a handkerchief to help him wipe it, Luo Chaocang hurriedly stepped back, but he didn't want to bump into another person, only heard: "Ah! Then there was the sound of porcelain breaking, and when he turned around, he saw a little boy with red lips and white teeth, and a pair of bright big eyes falling to the ground, and his beautiful brow was slightly wrinkled because of pain.

"Little Flower!" Seeing that her baby son fell, Wu Ling'er couldn't care about acting, threw away the teacup, and immediately ran over to pick up Xiaohua: "How is it?" Are there any injuries? Have you ever been pricked? ”

Xiaohua hid in Wu Ling'er's arms like a frightened deer and shook her head: "I'm fine!" ”

"Good! Don't be afraid! There are so many people here, he doesn't dare to bully us!! Wu Ling'er softly coaxed the little flower in her arms that trembled slightly, and at the same time made a distressed expression, not to mention how painful it was.

When everyone who didn't understand what was going on saw Luo Chaocang bullying the cute-looking brother and sister like this, everyone's faces were more or less dissatisfied, and then a gray-haired old man stood up: "What the hell is going on?" ”

"Mr. Zhang, long time no see!" Ye Tian quickly stood up after seeing the old man: "I was sitting here drinking tea with a few friends, and this Mr. Luo suddenly came over to accuse my friend, and then asked her to leave. When will the person in charge of today's cocktail party be replaced by Mr. Luo? ”

"Asakura, what's going on?" Hearing that Luo Chaocang was going to drive away his guests, the old man suddenly became unhappy. No matter who the other party is, even if you want to rush, you have to get his consent, what does Luo Chaocang mean by doing this?

Seeing that the old man was unhappy, Luo Chaocang hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhang, you misunderstood!" I didn't mean it that way. This woman, she is not qualified to enter this venue at all, she is just an orphan, but a rich relative suddenly appeared and recognized her, so she has some identity. It is an insult to Mr. Zhang for such a person to sneak into the venue!! There is also this person, who is a descendant of the person who was expelled from our Luo family, and now he suddenly ran out with my uncle's will and said that he wanted to inherit my uncle's property. ”

"What? Lao Luo is dead? "Obviously, the old man is the same as Wu Ling'er, and he is a person who can't grasp the point. After hearing Luo Chaocang's words, he looked at Luo Zhili: "What's going on?" ”

"Grandpa had an accident in Aceh...... According to his will, I sent his ashes back to the old house for burial. Facing the old man, Luo Zhili looked respectful and polite. Seeing such a child, the old man didn't hate it as much as Luo Chaocang, but reached out and gently touched Luo Zhili's head: "You are Lao Luo's grandson?" How old are you now? Speaking Chinese well! ”

"Thank you Grandpa Zhang for the compliment, I will be sixteen next month!" Luo Zhili suddenly looked up at the old man: "Grandpa Zhang, I know that I am not popular with the Luo family, but grandpa's last wish is that I want to help grandpa fulfill it no matter what." ”

The old man glanced at Luo Chaocang and nodded with a smile: "Little guy, don't worry!" There's always a solution to things!! After finishing speaking, he looked at Wu Ling'er: "Forgive me for being clumsy, may I ask this young lady, who are you?" ”

"Grandpa Zhang, this is my friend!" Zhu Qian, who had not appeared for a long time, suddenly appeared beside Wu Ling'er: "She is a very powerful person!" I've known her for years! Very good to people, and very talented! That's why I want to take advantage of tonight to bring her here to study hard with Grandpa Zhang! By the way, she has studied guqin for a few years before, and I heard that Grandpa Zhang is a master of guqin, and she has always admired you very much!! ”

When the old man saw Zhu Qian, he immediately smiled: "Xiaoqian is here?" Why are you late? ”

"I met an acquaintance outside just now, so I said hi to him! Hee-hee, anyway, it's Grandpa Zhang's party, and you won't kick me out if I'm late! Zhu Qian stood beside Wu Ling'er with a smile: "Officially introduce to Grandpa Zhang, this is my good friend, called Wu Ling'er." He is very good at drawing, and he is also very good at writing! After speaking, she looked at the old man and said, "Do you remember that two years ago I gave me a book of essays with illustrations?" ”。

The old man thought about it and immediately nodded: "That book, I remember, I asked you who the author was, but you girl told me to keep it secret, otherwise I was afraid that I would kidnap your good friend as an apprentice, so that she would no longer be able to concentrate on writing." Although it was a complaint, the old man had a pampering expression.

Zhu Qian smiled and hugged Wu Ling'er's arm: "The author of that book is Ling'er!" She also knew that Grandpa Zhang, you, a famous guqin player, would appear tonight, so she specially pestered me to ask me to bring her over! ”

"Oh?" After hearing Zhu Qian's introduction, the old man looked at Wu Ling'er seriously, but found that Wu Ling'er was praised by Zhu Qian and lowered his head embarrassedly: "Xiaoqian, don't say it again, how can I be as exaggerated as you say?" ”

However, after realizing that what she said seemed to be inappropriate, Wu Ling'er immediately looked up at the old man apologetically: "Hello Teacher Zhang! That one...... I didn't just say that to you! I really admire you, but I'm not as good as Akane said! Compared to your elders, I still have a lot to learn! ”

"Wu Ling'er? If I'm not mistaken, you're the niece of the chairman of the Lee Foundation, right? I heard that you refused the position of heir, why? ”

After hearing the old man's words, Wu Ling'er smiled: "I think that my life should be decided by myself, not by others. That's how I chose to give up drawing and choose to write. Life is short, and I want to spend my time on what I want to do and what I want to learn! As for the rest, I don't really care! Teacher Zhang has had this feeling before, right? ”

Wu Ling'er's words made the old man's eyes light up slightly, and he nodded with a smile: "You are very good at talking!" ”

"I'm just telling my true thoughts!" Wu Ling'er looked at the old man with a smile: "I just want to live a life where I can close my eyes with peace of mind when I am old!" ”

"A life where you can close your eyes with peace of mind! Not bad!! Hahahaha!! Xiaoqian, you have found me a friend with the right appetite! After speaking, the old man had already pulled Wu Ling'er to the other side of the venue: "Come, Xiaoqian said that you can play the piano, play a part for me!" ”

Not to mention that it's okay to play the piano, when it comes to playing the piano, Wu Ling'er suddenly has a bitter face, she hasn't touched her piano for two or three years, and now if the old man wants her to play the piano, what will she play like?

Obviously, Zhu Qian also understood this, and she hurriedly ran over: "Grandpa Zhang, Ling'er has been busy in the past few years, and she hasn't played the piano much, aren't you embarrassing her if you want her to play the piano now?" ”。

"Hehe, you don't know about this!!" The old man seemed to have identified Wu Ling'er today, and regardless of Zhu Qian's objections, he directly dragged Wu Ling'er into a piano room, which was not big, but the people who came with Wu Ling'er and them were all crowded in. Seeing that there were still people who wanted to come in, the old man waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, you guys play your go!" Don't get in again! It's not a zoo to see monkeys! ”
