Chapter 1031: All the Lus Are Divine Wingmen (1)
Because there were many people, a Western-style dining method was adopted. Everyone took their own plate to the dining room to get food, and then ate and chatted in the living room.
Just as Su Weiyi thought, Sheng Yanxiao really brought that girl.
However, before Su Weiyi could think much more, Miss Tang suddenly called her over: "Xiao Yi, this is your Uncle Lu and Aunt Bai’s daughter, Lu Yuewei. You haven’t met yet, have you?"
Su Weiyi was taken aback. She certainly knew who Miss Tang was talking about. That was one of her mother’s friends. When she was little, they were also in B City, but later moved to W City for work reasons. But she remembered that they didn’t have any children.
Although she wasn’t sure of Lu Yuewei’s age, it was clear they were of the same generation, with an age difference of no more than five years. How could such a child suddenly appear?
Lu Yuewei seemed to notice Su Weiyi’s confusion and gracefully extended her hand: "Hi, I’m Lu Yuewei. Don’t be surprised, I’m my parents’ adopted child."
Su Weiyi was again taken aback, then reached out her hand: "Hi, I’m Su Weiyi."
After chatting a little more, Su Weiyi learned that Lu Yuewei was not only her mother’s friend’s daughter but also the student of her uncle Mu Ke.
In recent years, Mu Ke no longer focused solely on hospital work and took on some university psychology guest lectures. Since Lu Yuewei was his student, she must be studying psychology too.
Objectively speaking, Su Weiyi actually had a good impression of Lu Yuewei.
Lu Yuewei was generous and cheerful, with well-timed words and actions. With her around, the atmosphere was very harmonious, but her way of livening up the mood was different from Si Nian’s playful approach; she had a more commanding presence.
But subjectively, sorry, Su Weiyi really couldn’t coexist peacefully with her.
After a while, Su Weiyi realized she seemed to have not paid much attention to Lu Zhang, whom she brought. Lu Zhang didn’t know anyone here, and she couldn’t let him feel too awkward.
When she turned to look for Lu Zhang, she found Lu Zhang was talking with Mr. Sheng about something, and both had light smiles on their faces.
In front of Mr. Sheng, Lu Zhang was somewhat lacking in both demeanor and presence, but he carried an air of neither arrogance nor inferiority, which was quite comforting.
Su Weiyi stepped over, and the protective father, Mr. Sheng, first criticized Su Weiyi for becoming increasingly thin, then meaningfully remarked, "Xiao Yi, you have a good eye."
A good eye?
What did that mean?
Su Weiyi instinctively looked at Lu Zhang, and out of the corner of her eye, caught sight of Sheng Yanxiao standing not far away. Su Weiyi couldn’t help but glance his way, only to find he wasn’t looking over at all.
Su Weiyi’s heart suddenly sank. Mr. Sheng’s words clearly misinterpreted something. She’d bet Sheng Yanxiao heard it too, yet he showed no reaction.
Perhaps he really didn’t care anymore.
He used to care, so he would get angry, get jealous.
But now he didn’t care, so naturally there’d be no reaction.
Su Weiyi suddenly felt the atmosphere in the room was stifling. She lightly tugged Lu Zhang’s sleeve, speaking in a low voice: "I’m going to stay in the yard for a bit. Do you want to come with me, or stay here?"
Lu Zhang smiled and lowered his voice as well: "I don’t know anyone here, so of course I’ll follow you."
Walking into the yard, temporarily isolated from the laughter and chatter inside, Su Weiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
