Chapter 798: Chapter 528: The Reward Given by Lin Lu
At ho, Cheng Zhu was accompanying Little Youzi as she watched TV.
The TV was playing “Pig Hero,” an episode he had seen before and vaguely rembered.
Cheng Zhu looked around, pondering, “I wonder if mom and dad have changed their minds?”
He had expressed months ago his wish to buy them a large flat in a high-end neighborhood with better property managent, to improve their living environnt.
But for now, his parents didn’t have any such plans.
Nowadays, as the family’s situation improved and their son was so accomplished,
the neighbors, all familiar faces, seed even happier and prouder during their chats and brags.
“However, with it definitely cos a lot of headaches,” Cheng Zhu was clear about that.
Like whether or not he could arrange a job for his son.
Or asking to borrow money.
Or seeking advice on how to start a business.
Even so people, viewing Cheng Zhu as a big shot, would co to request his help with things like finding schools for their children.
At that mont, Cheng Zhu glanced at his sister with her pigtails and asked with a smile, “Has Little You grown a bit taller recently?”
The little girl’s gaze was glued to the TV, but watching the animation didn’t make her ignore her brother’s question; she multitasked and replied, “I’ve grown just a teeny tiny bit!”
Cheng Zhu chuckled and rubbed the top of her head.
When the episode of “Pig Hero” ended, Little You deftly changed channels and started watching “Nezha Legend.”
“Haven’t you watched this already?” Cheng Zhu asked.
“Watch it again, watch it again!” Little You shouted.
This indeed reminded him of his own childhood, where he would watch the sa cartoons over and over on the TV, never tiring of them.
Unlike now, where he couldn’t even muster the patience for serial dramas, either speeding them up or fast-forwarding through them.
About five minutes later, mom Xu Yun called them to eat.
Old Cheng had already handed over the managent of the small restaurant to his apprentice, and he and Xu Yun were mainly focused on the community supermarket, which now has opened five stores around Hang City.
The business wasn’t huge, but his parents were enjoying it.
At the dinner table, Cheng Zhu kept praising them, declaring that his own business acun must be inherited!
Little You, holding a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice, her big round eyes sparkling, quickly set down her cup, clutched her head, and leaned towards Cheng Zhu, saying,
“Brother, look! Can you tell if I have a ‘Gold Mountain’ mind?”
She was quite eager, patting the top of her head.
“It’s called a business mind,” everyone at ho laughed at her words.
After dinner, Little You said she wanted to go play with Sister Lu, so Cheng Zhu called Lin Lu to join them, planning to take them to the arcade inside Star City.
Lin Lu left early and arrived even before they did.
She stood outside the arcade entrance, catching the eyes of passersby who couldn’t resist glancing at her.
Today’s energetic girl dressed in a burgundy miumiu polo shirt paired with a short black skirt and black shoes, exuding a touch of playful cuteness, was bursting with vitality.
From a distance, Cheng Zhu saw her and also noticed three boys behind her, nudging each other, clearly wanting to approach but hesitant.
Cheng Zhu quickly scooped up Little You and ran towards Lin Lu.
The little sister laughed heartily as she was carried forward in her brother’s arms.
Reaching Sister Lu, Cheng Zhu grabbed her hand.
If it weren’t for Lin Lu’s strong youthful vibe, one could almost mistake them for a family of three out for a day of fun.
“What’s up, rushing over here with Little You in tow?” Sister Lu asked, puzzled and smiling.
“We’ve got enemy activity!” Cheng Zhu replied with a twisted mouth and a serious expression.
“Huh? What thing?” Lin Lu was even more confused.
“There were a few cute boys who wanted to hit on you,” Cheng Zhu revealed his strong possessiveness.
Lin Lu felt a sweet tingling inside, but said, “Oh! Cute boys? Where, where?”
She started looking around wildly, only for Cheng Zhu’s big hand to hold her head and swivel it back to face front.
“Let’s go, ti to queue up for coins,” he said, dragging his girlfriend and sister inside.
While Cheng Zhu was in line, Lin Lu took Little You to the claw machines and began examining the dolls in each machine.
Cheng Zhu ca over with a small basket carrying two hundred Ga Coins and asked, “Why rush over here so quickly?”
“Cheng Zhu, help catch this! Catch this pig!” Lin Lu pointed at a rather large Piggy Doll.
The piggy doll in her ho with the label “Cheng Zhu” was a bit too small for her taste and felt unsatisfying to punch.
Moreover, after being punched so many tis, it had started to cave in at one spot.
Lin Lu suddenly couldn’t bear to keep pumling it; after all, it seed to be the first small gift Cheng Zhu had given to her.
Cheng Zhu was speechless but proceeded anyway.
His skills were already top-notch, and being wealthy, he could always just opt for a “secured catch.”
After successfully grabbing the prize, he didn’t hand the big piggy doll to Lin Lu but let Little You embrace it.
The doll was taller than her, and once she hugged it, her little face was completely covered.
That was the effect Cheng Zhu wanted.
Then, he turned to Lin Lu and pointed to his cheek.
Sister Lu looked around, and seeing no one close by, quickly pecked his cheek as a reward.
