Su Yunian grew even angrier.
"You're the one who's bzzz bzzz bzzz..."
Suddenly, her mouth fell wide open in surprise.
She had realized that she could hear Lu Chi's thoughts, but she couldn't say anything about them-not even use his thoughts to snap back at him.
After finally making it through to the lunch break, he walked out of the school gates and discovered that Lu Yuanqing had sent a driver to pick him up.
"Young master, this is the Rolls-Royce the master bought for you. From now on, this car belongs to you, and I'm your personal driver. My name is Li Jiu. You can call me Xiao Jiu or Xiao Li."
Lu Chi said, "Then I'll call you Xiao Li."
"Of course, young master. I'm here to take you home for lunch and a nap."
Lu Chi nodded. Just as he was about to get in, he saw Lu Jiyang walking out of school, a large, red handprint still on his face.
The car picking up Lu Jiyang was parked right beside Lu Chi's. Lu Jiyang's car was a Bentley.
Guagua: [Host, because Lu Jiyang hid a phone in his crotch, with evidence on WeChat of him teaming up with Qiu Yugang against you, he got a hard slap in your dad's car earlier. His face is still swollen.]
Lu Chi: [Serves him right!]
When Lu Jiyang saw Lu Chi, venom filled his eyes. He wished he could tear Lu Chi into ten thousand pieces. "What are you looking at? If it weren't for you, why would I have gotten hit?"
Pretending he knew nothing, Lu Chi raised his voice and shouted:
"Oh my, little brother Jiyang, you got hit? Who hit you, and what did you get hit for?"
Lu Jiyang said, "What the fuck are you pretending for..."
Lu Chi burst out laughing. "Little brother Jiyang, I really didn't know you'd gotten hit. If I hadn't seen your face as red as a monkey's ass, I wouldn't have believed it. You're a young master of the mighty Lu Family-who would dare hit you!"
Lu Jiyang said, "Your mother... Drive!!!"
The Bentley sped away in a cloud of dust.
In an excellent mood, Lu Chi told his driver, Xiao Li, "Let's go too."
When he got home, the family chef, Old He, had already prepared lunch.
Auntie Wang brought Lu Jiyang and Lu Chi bowls and chopsticks, served them rice, and said, "Young masters, please eat. You still need to take your afternoon naps afterward."
Lu Jiyang seethed inwardly and said nothing.
Having won the battle, Lu Chi felt sweeter inside than if he had eaten honey.
"Thank you, Auntie Wang! Mwah~"
Auntie Wang grew embarrassed. "Young master, please stop teasing me."
Lu Chi said, "Haha, all right, mwah~"
Lu Jiyang was too angry to eat. Slapping the table, he snapped, "Tch! What are you so smug about? One day, I'll wipe that smile off your face!"
Lu Chi stuck his tongue out at him and pulled a face. "I'm being smug! Come fight me if you don't like it!"
Fuming, Lu Jiyang went upstairs to sleep.
No one else was home at noon.
Lu Yuanqing had plenty to keep him busy every day.
Pan Feng had gone out to play mahjong.
Of the Lu Family's five daughters, the eldest, Lu Sangning, was in a terrible mood because of her fiancé Zhang Yong's betrayal. Accompanied by her best friend, she was out singing and drinking.
The second sister, Lu Qingru, was holding an international concert in Ugly Country and would probably come home next Monday.
The third, fourth, and fifth sisters all had their own work to keep them busy.
So now, only Lu Jiyang and Lu Chi were left at home.
Of course, the two couldn't get into a fight now either. After all, Lu Yuanqing had only just hit Lu Jiyang today. Lu Jiyang wasn't that stupid. Would he dare provoke Lu Chi now? He'd have to be an idiot!
Bringing someone down had to be done step by step. There was no rush to accomplish it overnight; there were plenty of days ahead.
They each ate and went to their own rooms.
Lu Jiyang went to his room to study, thinking that he absolutely had to surpass Lu Chi academically and let everyone in the Lu Family see his shining qualities.
He also had to make the Lu Family think Lu Chi was nothing but a country bumpkin who never improved, had no prospects, and had no ability.
Lu Chi, however, wasn't going to study.
He had finally transmigrated into a book as a wealthy family's young master, and he still had to study? Wasn't that asking for suffering? Hadn't he read enough books in his previous life?
He had finally graduated from university, yet he'd still lived a miserable life.
Studying was out of the question.
The moment Lu Chi entered his room, he lay straight down to sleep.
He even dressed it up with a fine excuse: "Skip your noon nap, crash in the afternoon. Sleeping is so I can study more efficiently this afternoon!"
After a miserable afternoon of studying at school, he finally muddled through all three classes.
No car from the Lu Family came to pick them up that afternoon, because according to the school's usual practice, dinner was eaten in the school cafeteria.
After dinner came self-study, which lasted until nine in the evening, when day students could go home.
Boarding students had to keep studying in the classroom until nine thirty before they could return to their dorms to sleep.
Lu Chi and Lu Jiyang were both day students. When afternoon classes ended, Lu Chi took his meal card and went to the cafeteria to get food.
Since he was unfamiliar with the place, he didn't even know which way the cafeteria was and could only follow the system Guagua's directions.
On the way, he ran into Su Yunian and her good friend Han Xiaoran.
Han Xiaoran whispered to Su Yunian, "Yunian, isn't that your new deskmate?"
Su Yunian shook her head and said coldly, "Don't even mention him. He's just a study slacker who doesn't like learning."
Han Xiaoran was puzzled. "But how come I heard that when he was at the school next door, he always held first place in the entire grade?"
Su Yunian shook her head. "Who knows what his deal is!"
Guagua: [Host, School Belle Su is complaining about you, saying you're a study slacker who doesn't like learning.]
Lu Chi: [That woman's a lunatic. I can't be bothered to stoop to her level.]
Su Yunian said, "You're the one who's bzzz bzzz bzzz! Your whole family is bzzz bzzz bzzz..."
Han Xiaoran said, "Yunian, what are you bzzz-bzzzing about? That noise you just made was hilarious! Hahahahaha!"
Su Yunian said, "Nothing."
Han Xiaoran said, "Hahaha!"
Su Yunian said, "Can you stop laughing? Nutcase!"
Lu Chi chatted on and off with Guagua all the way to the cafeteria.
He took out his meal card, bought some food, picked a table at random, and sat down to eat.
Lu Chi was very tall and handsome.
On top of that, he had made a name for himself in this morning's battle. Everyone knew he was the biological son the richest family had brought home-a bona fide tall, rich, and handsome guy.
The female students carrying trays of food they had bought all unconsciously sat down beside her.
Some boys came over to curry favor too.
"Hello, Lu Chi. I'm Gao Wenhui from Class Three."
"Lu Chi, my name is Zhou Yi, from Class Six in senior year. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"My name is Zhou Peng. I'm in Class Two too. You helped us teach those three little tyrants a lesson today. I really admire you!"
"Hello, senior. I'm a first-year junior. My name is Zhou Xue."
Lu Chi paid no attention to anyone and sat quietly eating his food.
After getting her food, Su Yunian deliberately chose a seat neither too close to nor too far from Lu Chi, just within range of his thoughts.
Guagua: [Host, that girl sitting directly opposite you keeps sneaking glances at you under the pretense of eating. She's your Class Two's class belle.]
Lu Chi looked up.
[With looks like that, she's the class belle? She isn't even as pretty as that Su Yunian beside me!]
As Su Yunian ate, she heard Lu Chi praise her looks. She said nothing aloud, but felt a trace of satisfaction inside. "You rotten study slacker. At least you have good taste!"
[Host, Su Yunian is the school belle!]
[So what if she's the school belle? She's still a lunatic!]
Su Yunian: "..." The tiny bit of goodwill she had just built up vanished just like that.
"You're the one who's bzzz bzzz bzzz..."
Han Xiaoran said, "Yunian, why aren't you eating properly? What are you bzzz-bzzzing about again? Oh, right, why do you keep staring over at your deskmate?"
