Chapter 65: A Little Witch Sees a Big Witch
He's my man!
When this sentence was spoken, it was like an atomic bomb thrown into the venue, and it instantly set off layers of turbulent waves in everyone's hearts.
If Xia Lin'er said that Lu Zheng was her boyfriend, it would be better.
After all, she is also a high school student, and she is almost at the age of college, and getting a boyfriend, even if it is surprising, is not something that is incomprehensible and unacceptable.
But now, Xia Lin'er said that Lu Zheng is her man!
"My man" and "my boyfriend" look no different, but the meaning inside is very different.
What do you mean by "my man"?
Usually, only wives will say this to their husbands.
Everyone present is not an ignorant and innocent young man, of course they know the meaning of this sentence.
Xia Lin'er announced in public that she had a relationship with Lu Zheng.
Even Lu Zheng herself was stunned, she didn't expect Xia Lin'er to be so bold that she would dare to say such things in front of her grandfather.
It seems that Xia Lin'er is ready, for the sake of her future marriage and freedom, she will fight with Old Man Xia to break the net.
"You, what are you talking about? You are a wicked obstacle, will you tell me again?" Old Man Xia was so angry that his beard was cocked, and his right hand was tightly grasping the dragon's head crutch, and he almost wanted to hit it with a stick.
Xia Lin'er smiled, "Grandpa, don't you understand? Lu Zheng is from Nanhua No. 1 Middle School, and I am also from Nanhua No. 1 Middle School." We were in the same school for three whole years, and we saw each other every day. Isn't it strange to fall in love over time?"
"Lin'er, do you know what you're talking about?" Xia Jiang's face was very ugly.
Originally, at tonight's banquet, my father was ready to announce that he would officially take over the family business. But his daughter made such a fuss, which directly damaged his image in his father's heart, and if he was not careful, he might let his younger brother Xia Shan take advantage of it.
"Don't you want to find me a fiancΓ©? β
Xia Lin'er smiled easily, but she grabbed Lu Zheng's arm tightly, and she didn't know how much courage she mustered to dare to face her grandfather and father like this.
Seeing that her determination was so firm, Lu Zheng gently patted her shoulder and comforted, "I'll come!"
Although the development of things has greatly exceeded his expectations, from helping her resist the suitors to confronting the Xia family head-on.
It's a pity that Lu Zheng has a problem, that is, as long as he promises to do something, whether it is going to heaven and earth, or slaughtering gods and destroying Buddhas, he must do it, and he will definitely do it!
Since he has promised to help Xia Lin'er, he will definitely help to the end.
Your father, Lu Tianhe, is in business in Wuyan County, and he has met me a few times before. I don't know what your relationship with my daughter is, and I don't want to know. However, I can tell you that the affairs of our Xia family are not something you can participate in. Even if your father Lu Tianhe is here, he doesn't dare to interfere. β
Xia Jiang spits words as warm as jade, even if he is angry again, he maintains an elegant posture, has a very good upbringing, and always maintains his image as an upper-class person.
"Mr. Qi is here, give a congratulatory gift to the old man!"
Before Lu Zheng could speak, the master of ceremonies shouted excitedly.
I saw a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes walking over slowly.
Lu Zheng recognized it at a glance, he was the driver who drove for the Ren family, called Lao Qi. The last time Lu Zheng went to the Ren family's old house, Lao Qi drove back and forth.
It's just that I didn't expect that a mere driver came to Xia's house and actually became "Mr. Qi" in their mouths, which made Lu Zheng a little crying and laughing.
"What, Mr. Qi, you mean Mr. Qi of the Ren family, hurry, hurry, come with me to greet you!"
Hearing Lao Qi coming, Old Man Xia was so frightened that he hurriedly moved away, wanting to go out to greet him in person.
It is said that "the seven officials in front of the prime minister", the driver who drives for the big man looks very humble and very ordinary. However, he drives for the big guys every day, often sees the big guys, and sometimes he can chat a few words, which is not ordinary.
If you can catch the driver's line, you know the habits of the big man, what cigarettes he likes to smoke, what alcohol he likes to drink, sometimes you can hear the content of his phone calls, and know a lot of confidential information.
In a sense, the driver is a very important position, similar to the secretary who carries him.
For the Xia family, they knew that there was a big man in the capital who returned to his hometown to visit relatives, and they also wanted to go to the knot. But they understood even more that compared to that big man, the entire Xia family was just an earthworm in the mud, and it was not worth mentioning at all.
And today, that big man actually sent a driver to send a congratulatory gift.
This kind of behavior, put on others, it is a big disrespect, and it is looking down on the Xia family. But in the eyes of the Xia family, the big man did this, which was equivalent to "the emperor's grace" and received great favor.
Seeing the Xia family's father and son in a hurry, eager to grow three legs to greet the driver Lao Qi, Lu Zheng suddenly remembered the father-in-law who passed the emperor's decree for the emperor in those costume dramas.
No matter how big an official is, even if it is a prince, when he sees this kind of father-in-law, he has to greet him with a smile and pat himself hard.
"No need, no need, I'm just here to deliver something for Mr. Ren, what are you doing here?" said Lao Qi impatiently.
Hearing that it was indeed Ren Lao who sent someone to give him a congratulatory gift, Old Man Xia smiled happily, he was so angry just now, but now he was full of smiles, and he couldn't wait to tell the world immediately that Ren Lao sent someone to send a congratulatory gift on his 80th birthday.
"Ren Lao still remembers me, it really makes me happy. I just did a small business in Nanhua City, and I called a few people to celebrate my birthday at home, but I didn't expect to alarm Mr. Ren!" said Old Man Xia with a smile.
Lao Qi handed over the things in his hand and said casually: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that when Mr. Ren was chatting with the mayor, the mayor mentioned it." When Mr. Ren found out, he asked me to send these two catties of bird's nest over, and he couldn't finish it anyway. β
"Thank you, thank you, thank you for your concern. Why are you still standing? Why don't you move a chair for Mr. Qi quickly?"
Knowing that it was just that people couldn't finish eating the rest of the bird's nest, Old Man Xia not only didn't get angry, but smiled even brighter, "Mr. Qi, you must be tired all the way here! If you don't dislike it, let's stay here tonight, the conditions are a little worse, but please don't be surprised." β
"Forget it, forget it, I'm still in a hurry to go back and report to Mr. Ren!" Lao Qi waved his hand and said.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that behind the Xia family's father and son, the figure seemed to be a little familiar, so he took a closer look.
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, why are you here?" exclaimed Lao Qi.
Thank you for the wind and snow without injury, and the reward of leisurely Nanshan
