Real or Fake Missy : I Have a Piece of Godly Land Novel - Chapter 21

Chapter 21: Unexpected Contact

Lu Qi nodded in understanding. “I respect your decision. If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I’ll do my best to provide it.”

Cheng Ling nodded. Sensing Lu Qi’s disappointment, she suddenly said, “This kind of wild fruit is not available in the market. I hybridized it myself two years ago. It’s very sweet.”

Eh?

Lu Qi looked at the green fruit in his hand. He had indeed never eaten it before.

He took a bite. The fruit was very refreshing, sweet and delicious. There was a slight sour taste in the sweetness, which immediately refreshed his mind.

The disappointment he felt when he was rejected earlier disappeared because of the delicious taste of this fruit.

“It’s very delicious.”

“Okay. If you want to eat it in the future, you can pick it. This one is free.”

Lu Qi chuckled. “Why don’t you charge for this?”

“Just treat it as a gift. You’re a big customer, so this is nothing!”

Although the two had just met yesterday, they had got along very naturally.

Cheng Ling was walking and talking with Lu Qi, and she didn’t notice the stone in front of her. She accidentally stepped on it, twisted, and almost fell. Fortunately, Lu Qi was quick-witted and he held Cheng Ling so that she wouldn’t fall down.

Cheng Ling’s hand was soaked in the stream water just now, and it was very cold. Lu Qi’s hand was unexpectedly warm. Cheng Ling could feel the heat coming from his palm. Suddenly, her face felt a little hot.

“Thank you.”

“Is your foot okay? You didn’t sprain it?”

Holding by Lu Qi, Cheng Ling tried to walk a few steps. She didn’t hurt her muscles and bones.

“I’m fine, let’s continue walking.”

The two of them let go of each other.

Cheng Ling felt a little uncomfortable. Her face was still slightly hot, but Lu Qi didn’t seem to notice it. He still had a faint smile on his face.

Seeing that the tour at the back of the mountain was almost done, Cheng Ling decided to do something to distract herself.

“Um… where do you live now? Why don’t I give you a diagnosis first?”

“That’s good, too. It’s not far from here. Do you want to tell your grandmother first?”

“Okay.”

Xie Ying was watching TV at home with her reading glasses on.

“Grandma, I’m… going out for a while.” Cheng Ling was thinking about excuses in her mind. Xie Ying definitely wouldn’t believe that she was going to treat Lu Qi’s illness.

“Where are you going? You haven’t had your breakfast yet.”

All kinds of things had been stirred up early in the morning. She hadn’t even eaten the sweet potatoes that were steamed in the pot.

“Lu Qi said that he has some revision materials for grade 12, so he asked me to go get them. You can eat breakfast on your own. After eating that sweet potato, maybe your presbyopia will be better.”

Hearing that Cheng Ling was going out with Lu Qi, Xie Ying quickly turned off the TV.

“What? You’re going out with the second young master of the Lu family?”

Lu Qi was waiting outside the door. He was tall and slender, and his blue clothes made him look even fairer. He could even disguise himself as a high school student by wearing a school uniform.

If a man suddenly became so interested in his granddaughter, anyone would be suspicious.

“Ling Ling, you’re a young lady. Will people gossip about you when you’re together with a member of such a big family like the Lu family?”

“What are you talking about? I’m really going to get the materials. I’ll be back soon! Grandma, continue watching TV and don’t forget to eat your sweet potatoes!”

In order to prevent Xie Ying from over expanding her illogical thoughts, Cheng Ling ran away in a flash.

Xie Ying looked at the disappearing figures of the two and sighed.

Forget it. Anyway, Cheng Ling was a child who knew her limits. Xie Ying had 100% confidence in her.

Moreover, children and grandchildren would have their own blessings. Even if the second young master of the Lu family was interested in Cheng Ling, she would not stop her.

With the Lu family around, Cheng Ling would be less aggrieved.

Thinking of this, the old lady was much more relieved. She happily ate her sweet potatoes and continued to watch TV.

The hotel Lu Qi stayed in was the presidential suite in the best five-star hotel in the west of the city.

When the two of them were waiting for the elevator, Cheng Ling received a call from Cheng Ming.

She hung up expressionlessly. Cheng Ming had never taken the initiative to call her. Now that he was calling her, it must be nothing good.

However, the phone kept vibrating. Cheng Ling frowned and picked up the call.

“Ling Ling?” Calling her Ling Ling? This was the first time.

“Ling Ling, are you with the second young master of the Lu family now?”

Seeing that Cheng Ling was picking up the phone, Lu Qi consciously took two steps to the side, giving her enough private space.

“So what if I am? What if I am not?”

“I heard that Young Master Lu’s assistant, the one called Lu Qi, seems to like you a little. Is that true?”

“I’ve discussed it with your grandfather. If you can say more good things about us in front of the young master of the Lu family, especially about your sister, and set your sister up with the head of the Lu family, then we will hold a banquet for you and officially introduce you to all the big families in the capital..”
