Mr. Lu's delicate bag

Chapter 126 Childhood Sweethearts

The weather was getting colder. Fortunately, after Shen Jiaojiao's obvious resistance that day, no teacher or counselor came to see her. As for whether her uncle would continue to provide scholarships in the next semester, no one asked her again, and she was away from worries and troubles.

One night, just as I was about to go to sleep with my bunny doll in my arms, Grandma Lu called me. "Jiaojiao, I'll be back tomorrow. Are you tired from your afternoon classes?"

As soon as she heard it, she knew that grandma was planning to take her out for a delicious meal at noon. Shen Jiaojiao quickly sat up and said, "Okay, I want to see grandma at noon!"

Grandma giggled and said, "Okay, your uncle will come tomorrow at noon, we will have lunch together, and driver Qi will drive you here."

After Shen Jiaojiao hung up the phone, she quickly called Aunt Xue to tell her that grandma would be home tomorrow. She also said that the housekeeper had already been notified. Shen Jiaojiao was a little too excited and called Lu Shize again.

"Uncle, uncle..."

"What's wrong? It's about grandma coming back."

"Yes, I was thinking, can I ask Auntie to bring Xiao Ximi over tomorrow so that grandma can take a good look at her?"

When grandma comes back, she might live with me or in her own house, but it is unlikely that she will live with my uncle. Therefore, Shen Jiaojiao feels it is necessary to bring Xiao Ximi to see the old lady.

"Besides, it seems that Xiao Ximi has rarely participated in our family dinners."···

Lu Shize thought about it and agreed, then sent a message to the housekeeper, "Anything else?"

Shen Jiaojiao opened her mouth and closed it again. Actually, she still wanted to talk to him...

"Gone".

The man hummed inaudibly, and then Shen Jiaojiao heard the sound of the phone being hung up.

Why can't there be some progress between the two of them?

Just break the window paper... Shen Jiaojiao looked at the family photo on the bedside table. What if he just treated her as a child and never saw her as a woman... Then if she expressed it, would the two of them end up having no contact with each other until they died?

She just kept looking at Lu Shize in the photo, unable to cut herself off, but also unable to move forward.

The only hope I have is that he has no plans to find a girlfriend yet.

Maybe, one day, he will realize that he has grown up and can be his other half. At that time... Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head and thought, forget it, don't think about it for now.

Who knows what will happen in the future... Let it be for now, at least she can still contact him whenever she wants.

Listen to his reports and sometimes hear his voice.

He said, don't do anything that will make him misunderstand you.

So, what if we do it again?

What will happen next?

The next day after school, Qi drove Shen Jiaojiao to a shopping mall. They had reserved a table in the sky loft on the top floor, which had a wide view. As they took the elevator up, Shen Jiaojiao raised her hand and took a picture of the river view in the distance. "Is this place newly opened?"

Driver Qi replied, "That Miss Ye is the one who stayed at the four-star hotel last time. This place also belongs to her."

"Oh, Ye Qing, right? Good taste."

When Shen Jiaojiao arrived, the housekeeper and Aunt Chen were standing outside the box, obviously waiting for her. "Uncle Zhao, grandma is here?"

"Yes, miss, the gentleman is here too and is waiting for you. Is there no traffic jam on the road?"

"The get out of class is over late, the teacher has assigned group work"···

Aunt Chen first led her to the side hall, where she washed up briefly, and then took her to the main hall.

When she opened the door, the sound of a piano came from inside. Grandma stood up and said, "Jiaojiao, come here and sit here."

The main hall was large and exquisitely decorated, with matching bouquets of fresh flowers. Not far to the left, a piano was located amidst a cluster of flowers, with a pianist playing seriously. Shen Jiaojiao walked in, and to the left of her grandmother sat a strange girl whom Shen Jiaojiao had never seen before. When she opened the door, the girl politely stood up and nodded to her as a greeting.

After Shen Jiaojiao sat down, grandma took her hand and said, "Come, let me introduce you. This is Ji Yalan. She is a childhood friend of your uncle. We were in the same class in elementary school but different classes in junior high school, but we had the same math teacher."

Shen Jiaojiao raised her hand, and the man quickly stood up again. The two shook hands. Ji Yalan had a pretty face, short hair that reached her ears, and a tight skirt that outlined her figure. She was capable yet exuded the unique feminine beauty.

"Jiaojiao, right? I held you in my arms when you were a child, but it was only that one time, so maybe you have forgotten it."

Hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao was a little stunned. Lu Shize was sitting on the other side of Shen Jiaojiao. "Of course she forgot. She was crying at that time. How could she remember?"

Everyone in the room started laughing. Shen Jiaojiao blushed and looked at Lu Shize awkwardly. Lu Shize poured her some tea and said, "At that time, the wind was strong and the rain was heavy. The room was not very bright. You just cried. You were just a little over six years old. You were held by so many people that no one could remember."

Shen Jiaojiao sat down. Everyone in the room knew that she loved to cry, but in fact, after she turned 18, in the past two years or so, Shen Jiaojiao thought that she cried much less and no longer shed tears so often.

She picked up the tea brewed by the man and smiled awkwardly at the girl over there, then she heard a voice beside her, "It's a little hot, drink it slowly."

Shen Jiaojiao looked back at Lu Shize and said, "Yeah."

Grandma spoke, "Yes, as a child, hey Yalan, you came to give Shi Ze his homework book, right? I remember."

At that time, Lu Shize was 15 years old. He was busy with the affairs of the Shen family and asked for leave one after another. Some classmates would ride a bike or walk to deliver something at the teacher's request, but at that time, only this girl always came.

Mother Lu remembered it clearly and always saw the girl coming regardless of rain or shine.

Ji Yalan touched the hair beside her ear and said, "It's a homework registration book. I borrowed it from his classmate because I was afraid he wouldn't know the homework for the day."

Later, grandma talked to Ji Yalan for a long time. From what I heard, it turned out that the two of them met again by chance in the UK more than a year ago. In fact, Yalan's previous doctoral supervisor was also a good friend of Grandma Lu.

This time when she returned home, Grandma Lu insisted on inviting her to come along. "How's it going? Yalan, I thought Shi Ze hadn't changed much, hadn't he?"

This question was addressed to Ji Yalan, but Shen Jiaojiao raised her head. Grandma immediately looked at her, wondering what was wrong with her, and asked with concern, "What's wrong, baby?"

Shen Jiaojiao quickly shook her head and everyone looked at her, "Nothing."

The more she listened, the more something seemed to be wrong. Shen Jiaojiao couldn't tell what was wrong.

Listening to grandma and Yalan chatting, it turned out that at that time, in school, except for occasionally answering questions, my uncle didn't speak at all. Shen Jiaojiao couldn't join in the conversation and just listened silently. Later, she heard them talking about food and weather in the UK.

The younger uncle had also been there about a week before, so when the topic was brought up, the younger uncle also took up the conversation. Shen Jiaojiao had almost finished eating and put down her chopsticks. The man scooped soup for her and brought it to her. Then Shen Jiaojiao heard her grandmother say, "Shi Ze, you should hang out with your old classmates more often in the future. Ya Lan is coming back this time and will not go to the UK. She will stay in City A."
