Chapter 150 Xia Jingru, Drop out of School!

Xia Youfeng was humble in front of Ling Tianyi’s powerful aura. But after all, he has been doing business for decades, so he could still control his mood.

Xia Jingru felt relieved when she heard her father’s excuse, because it sounds natural and reasonable. When she thought that Ling Tianyi came to get the gifts, she could not help clenching her fists tightly, because she was very nervous rather than trying to hit someone.

“I see! I don’t know who you made an appointment with. Boss Xia, I’m very curious. Can you satisfy my curiosity?” Yao Sheng asked continuously. Ling Tianyi did not speak, but he looked at Xia Youfeng as he was waiting for the answer.

Xia Youfeng knew that Yao Sheng was not so easy to fool, and Ling Tianyi supported him, so he couldn’t offend him. Xia Youfeng laughed: “Actually, he is not a big man. Sun Pingli, he is my subordinate and also my friend of years. Recently, he moved to a new house. We planned to get together today. Unfortunately, his father who lived in the countryside passed away, so we cancel it.”

Xia Youfeng said it very naturally. He was not afraid of Yao Sheng’s investigation. Sun Pingli did move to his new house recently and sent him an invitation, but he did not want to go. Sun Pingli called him this afternoon to tell him that his father died. Instead of notifying him that the dinner was canceled, he wanted to ask for a week’s leave.

Yao Sheng sent a message and asked several staff to investigate it. Then he asked Zhu Yufen: “Mrs. Xia, I heard that you took Xia Jingru to Macao recently. Coincidentally, I just came back from Macao a few days ago. When I was in Macao, I heard that you bought many gifts for your step-daughter, Xia Xiaoluo. They are all specialties in Macao. You are really kind!”

Yao Sheng finished and looked at Zhu Yufen aggressively. Zhu Yufen’s face changed immediately. She shared the last Liji almond cake and a bag of beef jerky with the ladies when they were playing cards yesterday. Now there was nothing left.

“Mrs. Xia, what’s wrong with you? You are reluctant to take it out? Now Xia Xiaoluo is in front of you. Why don’t you please her and let her forgive your daughter? Don’t forget that her husband is the richest man in A City. He wants to revenge his wife. You can’t be stingy this time!” Yao Sheng continued fanning the flames.

Xia Youfeng frowned and looked at Ling Tianyi’s colder and colder face. He knew it was impossible to change the topic. He said directly: “Manager Ling, it was Jingru’s fault before. She felt regretful and scared, so she went to Macao, and she was afraid that you were not happy. Now she also knows her fault. Jingru is Xiaoluo’s sister after all, so let her go. The two sisters have been noisy since childhood, but in fact their relationship is not bad.”

Ling Tianyi was very upset when he heard this. He asked slowly: “They were noisy since childhood? According to Boss Xia’s words, it is not accidental that Xiaoluo was bullied. She was bullied by Xia Jingru from an early age until now. Am I right?”

“Well!” Xia Youfeng paused for a while, then he laughed and said, “It’s a small thing for children to quarrel with each other, which is normal. They will get along well quickly. Is that right? Xiaoluo?”

Xia Xiaoluo looked at Xia Youfeng and thought that Xia Jingru always bullied her. It was not just a quarrel between sisters, not to say good relationship. It was really a joke. They never got along well. How could they talk about getting along well?

“Xiaoluo, don’t be afraid. Just say what you want to say. I support you!” Ling Tianyi was very gentle when talking to Xia Xiaoluo, which surprised Xia Youfeng. It was strange that a big man like Ling Tianyi loved his daughter Xia Xiaoluo, who is ordinary.

Xia Xiaoluo thought about it and said to Xia Youfeng: “Xia Jingru often bullies me! I don’t want to revenge on her. I hope I won’t see her again. We didn’t study together from kindergarten to senior school. Now we are in the same college, and I’m not used to studying with her in the same school. You should know what to do!”

When Zhu Yufen heard Xia Xiaoluo’s words, she became very angry. She hoped to tear Xia Xiaoluo’s mouth, but she dared not to. Xia Xiaoluo’s identity was different now, so she couldn’t abuse her as before.

However, Xia Youfeng cost a lot of money to make Xia Jingru admitted by Dwichen’s College and owed someone’s a big favor, so Zhu Yufen could not let Xia Jingru drop out of school. She did not expect that Xia Jingru would learn knowledge. Studying at Dwichen’s College was worth of showing off. Moreover, there were many young talents there. Xia Jingru would help ease the pressure of Youfeng’s Real Estate Company if she could marry a rich young man, even if the man was not as good as Ling Tianyi. If Xia Jingru went to an ordinary university, there were only poor people around, not to say to help the Xia Family, maybe it would also drag the Xia family down.

Zhu Yufen thought about this and said with a smile: “Xiaoluo, you haven’t studied together since childhood, so you don’t know much about each other. Now that you are in the same school, it is an opportunity to enhance your emotion. Jingru is your sister, a few months older than you. She has grown up now, who is not a small girl, so she won’t bully you. If someone bullies you, she will protect you!”

“Xiaoluo, after all, we are family. Don’t drive your sister away. You have been a kind girl since childhood. I don’t believe this is the real idea. Otherwise, you are not the kind angel in my heart.” Xia Youfeng also echoed. He gave Xia Xiaoluo the high title of ‘kindness’ directly, so if she still insisted on forcing Xia Jingru to drop out of school, it meant that she was not a kind girl.

Ling Tianyi was dissatisfied with Xia Youfeng’s behavior. He was protecting Xia Jingru obviously. Ling Tianyi knew this. If Xia Jingru was willing to drop out of school, he would forgive her. But if Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t handle this, he would deal with it in his own way.

“Xiaoluo, please wait for me for a moment!” Zhu Yufen went upstairs and took a blue velvet box with a pendant necklace quickly. It was bought by Zhu Yufen, worth more than 30,000 yuan.

Zhu Yufen put the blue velvet box with the necklace in Xia Xiaoluo’s hands. “Xiaoluo, this is the gift that Jingru bought for you when she was in Macao. She also liked it very much, but she said that you would look good with this necklace, so she bought it for you. I bought you some food, but when I came back, I heard that you and Manager Ling went for a trip. I’m afraid that they would go bad, so I don’t keep them for you. Don’t be angry!” Zhu Yufen said.

“Come on, Jingru! You wear the necklace for Xiaoluo. You two should reconcile.” Zhu Yufen laughed and said. Xia Jingru didn’t come close to Xia Xiaoluo when Ling Tianyi said coldly: “Mrs. Xia, do you want Xiaoluo to take off the necklace I gave her?”

Xia Jingru stopped at once, and Zhu Yufen’s smile froze.

“I don’t mean that! Manager Ling, we just want to express our kindness. If Xiaoluo is wearing a necklace now, she can take it first! Girls should have more jewelry!” Zhu Yufen answered at once.

“Of course, girls should have more jewelry! However, Xiaoluo has married me! Mrs. Xia, do you think I can’t buy jewelry for her? I don’t need your kindness here!” Ling Tianyi did not give her face at all. He came here today to revenge Xia Xiaoluo so no matter what Zhu Yufen said, she was wrong.

Yao Sheng was also quite clever. He had helped Ling Tianyi to investigate Xia Xiaoluo and he knew the Xia family. “I don’t know what jewelry Mrs. Xia bought for Xiaoluo before she got married? At that time, there is no Sir Ling, who is rich, taking care of Xiaoluo. I think that Xiaoluo may need the Xia family’s care at that time!”

Zhu Yufen wanted to drive Yao Sheng away at this time. She regarded Xia Xiaoluo as a servant from an early age. She didn’t even buy her new clothes, not to say the jewelry. Xia Xiaoluo used to wear school uniforms when she was a child. When she grew up, she did part-time jobs to save money, buying beautiful clothes occasionally. Of course, Xia Xiaoluo’s clothes were very cheap, cheaper than a button on Xia Jingru’s clothes.

“Don’t divert the topic. Xiaoluo doesn’t want to study with Xia Jingru at the same college, but I want Xiaoluo to study at Dwichen’s College. What are you thinking about?” Ling Tianyi said. He waited for Xia Youfeng and Zhu Yufen’s answer. He would punish them if they dared to refuse or fool them again.

“Actually, if the two children can get along well, they will communicate and understand each other. After all, they are sisters. And they are not in the same departments, Jingru studies in the Business Department, Xiaoluo studies in the Arts Department. Dwichen’s College is so big, and it is not so easy for them to meet. Do you agree? Manager Ling?” Zhu Yufen saw that Xia Youfeng was going to compromise, so she said first. Anyway, Ling Tianyi did not get angry today. Therefore, Zhu Yufen decided to try her best to fight for it.

“Yes, you’re right!” Ling Tianyi smiled, and he knew he could take actions.

“That’s right! Manager Ling is the president of such a big group. I know he won’t argue with children. Don’t worry, Manager Ling, I will be strict with my daughter.” Zhu Yufen smiled happily. Xia Jingru was also relieved, because now that Ling Tianyi said that, Xia Xiaoluo wouldn’t force her to drop out of school.

Xia Youfeng frowned, feeling uneasy. He also heard some rumors about Ling Tianyi, so he always felt that things would not end so simply.

“OK, I’ll not let Xia Jingru drop out of school.” Ling Tianyi laughed and said. But Xia Xiaoluo was unhappy. She couldn’t figure out why Ling Tianyi did so.

Ling Tianyi looked at Xia Xiaoluo’s expression. Then he looked at Zhu Yufen, who said slowly with a smile: “Xia Jingru pushed Xiaoluo into the well, almost killing her. There must be a result of this matter. Since you disagree with Xiaoluo’s propose, I promise not to force Xia Jingru to drop out of school. But now, as the husband of Xia Xiaoluo, it’s my turn to deal with it.”

Xia Xiaoluo knew that it would be troublesome if Ling Tianyi dealt with this matter, so she said hurriedly: “Xia Jingru, you’d better drop out of school!”
