Ch.156 Everyone is acting, except for me (1)

To prepare for their reunion today, Li Murou had taken care to dress up and intended to appear in the most stunning way possible. At least, she had to crush Lin Yueqi who had not yet managed to lose weight yet with her aura alone.

But she did not expect Lu Ting to say such words.

Her body stiffened and for a moment, she had no idea what to say. After being speechless for a moment, she finally said, “You…Brother Ting, don’t you remember me? I’m Rourou.”

While drinking water, Lin Yueqi was eyeing the self-righteous Supporting Female Li who was being possessed by a film spirit right now.

Without needing to mention anything else, scheming types like these aren’t Old Lu’s cup of tea anyway.

The little chubby girl and Jiang Mucheng looked at each other, both rubbing their arms. They couldn’t help but shiver.

Tuantuan did not like how Li Murou was talking to her father. She slammed her little palms on the table and said to her in a warning tone, “Auntie, my Papa is called Lu Ting, not Brother Ting! Can you not talk to Papa like that? Papa is a serious Papa. Other than Mama, he won’t look at any other auntie.”

Looking at the little girl, Li Murou suppressed the discomfort in her heart.

But Jiang Mucheng just had to pout at this moment and say, “That’s right! Other than Sis Lin, he won’t look at any other auntie! So Auntie, just give up!”

Jiang Mucheng said while imitating Tuantuan’s tone.

“Pff—” Li Xing could not stop himself from spitting out his water. Is the world of women always this exciting?

Li Murou was so angry that it felt like her chest was wrenching together.

A little girl calling her auntie was enough, but why is this old woman calling her auntie? Li Murou looked at Lin Yueqi. She knew that she arranged all this. She felt extremely depressed right now, but she had to keep up her manners.

Lu Ting put the tea cup down and spoke casually, yet his attitude was distant. “Li Rou, Uncle Li’s daughter. I heard you dropped out of school and went to other places to learn cooking. I didn’t expect you to open this store now though.”

Li Murou breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. “That’s right, Brother Ting. How have you been doing these years?”

The current her was already an internet celebrity. Film emperors, directors, they’re now her diners and they all praised her food. She earned a lot of good money with her food and she believes that she is now good enough to stand by Lu Ting’s side.

Lu Ting sat upright and looked at the girl’s delighted gaze, saying, “We’re not that close, are we? You can call me Mr. Ting just like my staff or you may call me Lu Ting.”

Li Xing, “……” Old Lu, your desire to survive is really up there.

But in Li Xing’s memories, Lu Ting never really liked this girl that much. In high school, when Li Xing would go over to Lu Ting’s house for tennis, this girl would always sit on the court and look at Lu Ting from afar. People could see what Li Murou thought of him, but Lu Ting never accepted the girl’s feelings.

Even though they lived in the same house, Lu Ting kept a very perfunctory attitude towards this girl.

Both before and now, it was not hard to see that Li Murou’s attitude towards Lu Ting was a bit off. It was definitely not the feeling of reuniting friends, but rather, a kind of naked provocation to Lin Yueqi, the “real girlfriend”.

When Lu Ting said those words, he even glanced over at Lin Yueqi, as if to ask for merits.

Lin Yueqi was puzzled when she caught the man’s gaze.

She remembers that Lu Ting and Li Murou grew up in the same house, right? They’re still considered childhood friends at the very least, aren’t they? Isn’t that close enough?

She was only confused. She couldn’t guess what Lu Ting was thinking at all.

Because of Lu Ting’s words, Li Murou had clearly become the most embarrassed person in this world. Her mouth twitched and she put on a standard hospitality smile while speaking in a gentle tone. “Please sit for a moment, I will go prepare your dishes.”

When Li Murou left, everyone’s eyes were fixed on Lu Ting’s face.

Tuantuan got up and grabbed Lu Ting’s ear, twisting it 180 degrees like a rotary switch. She huffed and said, “Papa, be honest! Who is that auntie just now? A lenient punishment if you confess, strict if you resist! Otherwise, forget about your ears. Tuantuan is going to feed your ear to Granny Moon!”
