Chapter 957: Chapter 714: Three Years Later
Mrs. Su quickly invited Chen Lu into the house, which wasn’t very big and was a bit ssy.
It was likely just tidied up recently.
Chen Lu found a small sofa to sit on, while Su Xiaoxi ca over with a broom to clean.
It was obvious she wanted him to leave quickly.
After an awkward smile, Chen Lu said he’d visit again next ti.
When he got ho, he imdiately told Chen Pingsheng, “Dad, I finally found where Xiao Xi lives.”
“And then?”
“Xiao Xi doesn’t seem very happy now.”
“Yeah, you could see that, couldn’t you?”
“I want to help her.”
“How do you want to help?”
“I want her to be like she was before.”
“Then she needs money first, but if you suddenly beca rich now, your mom would definitely make you return to the Magic City, and wouldn’t let you co to Shenzhen to see her; so do you want money, or do you want to stay beside her?”
Chen Lu thought about it and decided he wanted to stay beside Su Xiaoxi.
Since he wanted to stay beside Su Xiaoxi, he couldn’t help her, because they were now only playing the role of an ordinary family.
Once he returned to the Magic City, Su Xiaoxi wouldn’t be worthy enough to interact with his son.
It would be impossible to let them play together every day; Su Yanxi wouldn’t allow it.
Chen Lu could find the best woman in the world, one who is not only beautiful but also has family background and has been well-educated from childhood.
All three are indispensable.
And Su Xiaoxi is only just beautiful.
That’s absolutely not enough to beco his daughter-in-law.
If one had to sum it up, she’s worlds apart.
She doesn’t even et the minimum standards.
Chen Pingsheng found it difficult to judge whether it was good or bad for Chen Lu to stay in Shenzhen.
But since he decided, he should make his own choice once.
No matter how bad, it wouldn’t be worse than his own lay-flat attitude.
Chen Lu chose to stay in Shenzhen, so he could only live this ordinary and simple life.
als could no longer be ordered using a tablet for airlifted seafood.
Going out didn’t an having four or five bodyguards following, nor a driver to open the Rolls-Royce Phantom door at any ti.
Ordinary life ans having to rely on oneself.
When his dad wasn’t ho, he also had to learn to cook for himself.
If he didn’t cook, he could only order takeout.
Growing up on top-notch ingredients, one certainly couldn’t get used to takeout and other junk food.
Even so, Chen Lu never shouted about going back to the Magic City.
Whenever Mrs. Su ca, he couldn’t even offer money to help his best friend Su Xiaoxi.
Days passed as such, and Su Xiaoxi was no longer as cold as before, but she wasn’t as warm either.
Just like the gap between them now, forcing a friendship wouldn’t last long.
Chen Pingsheng didn’t know how long he could hold on, just that through Su Xiaoxi, he realized that when you choose to lay flat and your family no longer has the conditions, the light in your eyes disappears.
Of course, it was hard to say if Chen Lu would adapt to this thod of upbringing.
Because even if he lay flat for a thousand years, spending a billion annually, the money wouldn’t be finished.
Because the family’s wealth-generating track was fully established.
Annually, it produced four to five hundred billion in net profit, which was indeed hard to spend.
In any case, for a family like theirs, lying flat was always wrong.
Chen Lu not only chose to live here, he also chose to attend the sa school as Su Xiaoxi again.
Days went by like this.
In the blink of an eye, three years passed.
On August 10, 2029, Chen Pingsheng turned 46, his wife Song Yanxi 41.
Their eldest daughter Chen An’an was twenty-two, and their second daughter Chen Xinyi was already sixteen.
As for Little Third, Chen Lu, he’d stayed in Shenzhen for three years.
Gradually, he completely adapted to this ordinary life in Shenzhen.
The diocre grades that couldn’t improve before, were now good.
And the reason for improvent was especially amusing.
It was because Chen Pingsheng promised him that if he made the top three in class,
he’d provide the Su family with a fund of five million to ensure they could live carefree for two to three years.
Later, he really made it.
Everyone’s motivation for working hard is different; so just want to make money.
Others want to seek better love, like Chen Lu, who just wanted to improve Su Xiaoxi’s family life.
Since Chen Pingsheng promised him, he naturally wouldn’t break his word, and he gave Mrs. Su five million.
He also told her the reason how this five million ca to be.
The next year, Chen Pingsheng said if he could get first in the class, he would buy a luxury ho worth a hundred million for the Su family in Shenzhen.
Chen Lu worked incredibly hard for this.
He even ca second in the entire grade but didn’t rank first in the class.
Because the one who outperford him wasn’t anyone else but Su Xiaoxi, who always scored better than him.
Chen Lu was already thirteen, and Su Xiaoxi was fourteen.
Both went from primary school to the second year of junior high and were about to enter their third year.
Even when Chen Lu told Su Xiaoxi the reason he wanted to be first, Su Xiaoxi never let him win once.
She actually already liked Chen Lu.
Any girl would be moved to see such a prestigious young master accompanying their family in a regular community in Shenzhen for three years.
Even working tirelessly to be first would be touching.
But the more she felt this way, the more she couldn’t let Chen Lu co first in the class.
Then, this September, when the third year started,
a real prodigy girl ca to their school, beautiful, generous, and confident.
No matter the angle, such a girl was flawless.
Piano level seven, top-notch in dance, and mastered every art.
The key was that she was very beautiful, had great grades, and no pretensions in her conduct.
It was known that when she went ho after school, she always rode in a Rolls-Royce Phantom.
After coming to the school, she had no interaction with Chen Lu.
But Chen Pingsheng was well aware that this was a girl arranged by his wife, Song Yanxi.
This girl was carefully selected by Song Yanxi as a potential daughter-in-law.
She had even talked to the other parents, which is how such an outstanding girl ca to transfer schools.
Song Yanxi was very satisfied with Chen Lu’s improvent in grades,
and didn’t hold any grudge about him spending three ordinary years in Shenzhen.
The only thing she wasn’t satisfied with was that he liked Su Xiaoxi.
It never changed from childhood to adulthood.
This Chinese New Year, she even exploded and told Chen Lu on the spot that in a thousand years, Su Xiaoxi would never match their family.
Unconsciously, she beca like Liu Fen, also looking down on her potential daughter-in-law’s background and family.
But Song Yanxi managed to not explode and instead arranged a more excellent and perfect girl to co over.
Their family had grown astonishingly strong over these three years.
People wanting to form connections with their family could line up from here to France.
Song Yanxi couldn’t bear it; her son liked the daughter of a woman who had been a mistress for ages.
For this reason, Su Xiaoxi would never be allowed to cross their family’s threshold.
A rich family, a rich family, choices among rich families are often just as simple as those among ordinary people.
The thing Song Yanxi detested the most was a woman who had been a mistress.
She wasn’t fit to be called mother by her son, to her, it was absolute disgrace.
Not even Chen Pingsheng could try to convince her otherwise.
