666: Chapter 665: Human Feelings are Unpredictable 666: Chapter 665: Human Feelings are Unpredictable Lin Dong adjusted his hat to conceal the expression in his eyes, and when he looked up again, he was still the cheerful person with a bright smile, “Big sis!
Eating in the cafeteria definitely isn’t the sa as at ho!
It’s normal to lose a little weight!
I’m doing quite well!
You guys don’t need to worry!”
In fact, university life was much different from what he had imagined, and classmates in university were so different from those in high school, but he didn’t want his big sister and brother-in-law, who had made a special trip to see him, to worry about him.
He was already a young man, and there were many things he had to explore, understand, and deal with on his own.
Lin Xia could tell that her brother’s words were not coming from the heart; she knew his nature was always to share good news but not worries.
However, this clearly wasn’t a good place to talk and share feelings.
“Dongzi!
Get in the car!
We’ll treat you to sothing delicious!”
Lu Zheng also called out to Lin Dong, “Right!
We’ll find a place to eat and talk!”
Lin Dong cheerfully climbed into the back seat.
“If my brother-in-law is treating, I’ve got to have sothing good!
I want to eat hot pot!”
Lu Zheng laughed heartily, “No problem!
Whatever you want to eat, we’ll make sure you have your fill!”
During the al, Lin Dong received a belated gift from his brother-in-law Lu Zheng—a Hero 100K gold fountain pen.
“Dongzi!
You’re our pride!
Getting into such a good university, your brother-in-law didn’t know what you like!
So I bought you a fountain pen!”
Lu Zheng had put a lot of thought into this reward; he originally wanted to give sothing else, but after considering that Lin Dong was still in school, a big gift or sothing too flashy wouldn’t be appropriate.
“Thank you, brother-in-law!” Lin Dong accepted it with a radiant smile.
When he saw the pen he had long desired lying quietly in the box, his fingers trembled slightly with excitent,
“This gift is exactly what I wanted!
There’s a classmate in our dorm who has one, and I was so envious!
I never thought that I would have one too…”
Lin Dong fondled and examined the pen lovingly as he spoke.
Lin Xia had a contemplative expression.
She had t most of the people in his dormitory when school started, “Dongzi!
Who in your dorm has one?”
Lin Dong looked up and said, “ng Xiangnan!
You’ve t him, big sis!
When school started, his sister also ca to drop him off, and you even talked with her!”
Lu Zheng’s brows furrowed as he looked at Lin Xia, “Is he the brother of that girl from the theater troupe?” His impression of ng Xiangzi was utterly negative, and by association, even without having t her brother, he felt a dislike for him.
Lin Xia nodded, “Yes!
That’s him!”
Lin Dong caught the underlying tone and quickly asked, “Big sis!
Brother-in-law!
What theater troupe are you talking about!
His sister is in a theater troupe?
How did you know about it?”
Lin Xia smiled reassuringly at Lin Dong and told him not to hurry as she explained, “ng Xiangnan’s sister, ng Xiangzi, works in a theater troupe.
She ca to your brother-in-law’s workplace for a National Day consolation performance!
We just happened to run into her and spoke for a bit!”
Lin Dong’s eyes widened in disbelief, “What a coincidence!”
“Yes!
We also didn’t expect such a coincidence!” Lin Xia thought back on it and still felt it was like sothing out of a drama, as though it had been scripted.
Lu Zheng had a solemn expression.
ng Xiangzi was harboring ill intentions, and her brother was Lin Dong’s classmate.
So things simply had to be considered more carefully.
But so things couldn’t be expressed too bluntly.
“Dongzi!
When studying abroad, you need to be savvy in your interactions with classmates!
You can’t see what’s in people’s hearts, so be careful not to be used by others!”
Lin Dong took his brother-in-law’s words very seriously and nodded earnestly, “Brother-in-law!
Don’t worry!
I’ll be careful!”
“Good!” Lu Zheng knew Lin Dong wasn’t a foolish kid; he was just too kind-hearted and wouldn’t readily think badly of people.
Lin Xia also advised her brother, “Dongzi!
Rember this, we must not harbor malice against others, but we must guard against them.
If anything happens, don’t bear it alone.
Call us, okay!”
“I know!” Lin Dong felt very fortunate, even though his mother had passed away and his father was unreliable.
But he had his brother, sister, and brother-in-law, who loved and cared for him!
…
Lu Zheng was about to drive away and return first; Lin Xia reluctantly bade farewell to him in the car.
The two hugged and kissed over and over again.
They said many words of caution to each other.
Lin Xia still could not help but remind him, “I guess I’ll be here for a while!
Take good care of yourself at ho!”
If it had not been for her grandfather’s illness coming up at this ti, she really did not want to be separated from Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng felt the sa way.
On one hand, he worried about his grandfather’s health, and on the other hand, he couldn’t bear to be apart from his wife.
“Mmm!
I will!” After saying this, he kissed her tenderly for a while before letting her go, “Wife, don’t worry!
When you weren’t around, didn’t I still take good care of myself?”
“That’s true!” Lin Xia suddenly felt that she was indeed caring too much.
Lu Zheng affectionately rubbed her reddened ears, “But as for you, if you encounter my grandmother and those people again, you don’t have to put up with anything unpleasant they say, just fire back directly!”
His wife was not soone to be bullied by just anyone.
But he couldn’t always be by her side to protect her, so he had to give her so advance warnings.
Lin Xia chuckled, “I know!
With your approval, I definitely won’t indulge them!” But she also had to maintain so asure, not to make things too difficult for Lu Zheng.
When Lu Zheng returned to his unit, it was already ti for dinner.
After returning the car, he went ho, tidied up, and then went to Li Qingshui’s house next door.
Li Qingshui and Hao Xiaoyun, seeing that he had returned, both asked with concern about the condition of his elder family mber.
When they learned that Shao Chengzhi was out of danger, both breathed a sigh of relief for Lu Zheng.
Hao Xiaoyun imdiately asked, “Did Lin Xia co back with you?”
“No!
She stayed to help my mother take care of my grandfather for a while!” Lu Zheng covered the hint of loss in his eyes; when he had arrived ho just now, facing the room without Lin Xia, it felt desolately empty.
“Alright!
I’ll leave you guys to chat for a bit!
I’m going to get the al ready!” Hao Xiaoyun said and then went into the kitchen.
Li Qingshui and Lu Zheng each held a cigarette, smoking and talking about work-related matters.
“You’re back just in ti!
A theater troupe wants to co to our unit for a life experience.”
Lu Zheng’s brow twitched, utterly puzzled, “Life experience?
What is there to experience at our unit?”
Old Li was amused by Lu Zheng’s expression and accidentally coughed from the smoke, “They say the scriptwriter wants to experience life to write a script, sothing about our industry.
I don’t know what the higher-ups were thinking, but they agreed.
Not just the scriptwriter, a few actors from the troupe will also co.
Old Qiu and Old Sun were frenzied when they heard the news and fought over getting people!
I figured we should not compete!”
Old Li said this, chuckling silently and taking another puff of his cigarette.
Lu Zheng understood Old Li’s tactics and casually kept the conversation going, “And then?”
“Then!” Old Li snuffed out his cigarette in the ashtray with a gleeful expression, “The boss just happened to assign a beautiful actress to our departnt, driving Old Qiu and Old Sun completely mad…
Now I’m pondering who would be suitable to handle this!
Facing a beautiful girl, you’ve got to be composed, can’t afford to lose face by saying sothing unnecessary.”
