Real or Fake Missy : I Have a Piece of Godly Land Novel - Chapter 45
Chapter 45: Asking for Phone Number
“Cheng Ling, Grandpa will treat you to dinner tonight as an apology!”
Everyone could clearly feel that when facing Cheng Ling, Old Ding Master was always friendly. He even had a smile on his face, and looked simple. He was completely different from the person who was sitting there in a rage just now.
Cheng Ling did not decline the invitation.
“Okay. Can I bring Grandma along?” Cheng Ling pulled Xie Ying over.
This was the first time Xie Ying had met Ding Shun. With Ding Shun’s identity, and he had just helped Cheng Ling, Xie Ying respected Old Ding Master very much.
“Thank you so much. I thank you on behalf of our Cheng Ling.”
“Don’t mention! She is a good girl”
Ding Shun and Xie Ying finally found a common topic to talk about — praising Cheng Ling.
The rest of the people: “We don’t know what’s going on, and we also don’t dare to ask.”
Cheng Ming and Xie Wan saw that Cheng Ling had a chance to have dinner with Ding Shun, so they quickly pushed the principal and Tang Hai away.
Although the Ding family was not the most famous family, they had great prestige. If they could have a meal with Old Master Ding, they would be able to brag about it for months.
Wouldn’t the wives of others be envious of her?
Thinking of being able to show off in front of others, Xie Wan became even more enthusiastic.
Seeing that Ding Shun, Cheng Ling and the others were about to leave, she quickly went forward and tugged at the hem of Old Master Ding’s clothes.
Ding Shun stopped and turned around.
“Hello, Mr. Ding. We are Cheng Ling’s parents.”
She pulled Cheng Ming and Cheng Xiao over.
“This is Cheng Ling’s sister. She is also studying at Yuya First High school and she is Ding Yu’s friend.”
“Oh, is that so?” Ding Shun wasn’t asking anyone else, but Cheng Ling.
Cheng Ling decisively shook her head, “No.”
…
“Oh, I see. Then let’s continue walking. The car is parked downstairs.”
Hearing Cheng Ling’s answer, Ding Shun actually didn’t ask anymore questions. He just nodded and continued walking forward!
Probably because Ding Shun was there, Xie Wan didn’t dare to curse out loud. However, she deliberately let Cheng Ling hear it, so the word “heartless” still reached Cheng Ling’s ears.
Cheng Ling ignored her and did not stop walking.
It was said that one should not wash his dirty linen in public, so Cheng Ling did not want to blow up the small matter between her and the Cheng family.
When they went downstairs, Cheng Ling deliberately walked a few steps slower and came to Lu Qi’s side.
The setting sun shone on half of Lu Qi’s face. His thin outline became softer, and his eyelashes cast a shadow on his nose bridge.
“Thank you for today.”
The two of them walked down the stairs side by side. The glow of the setting sun made this scene even more beautiful.
Lu Qi shook his head. “I didn’t help you much. You yourself did well.”
Lu Qi was implying something else. Cheng Ling also understood and smiled.
“That watch…”
“Don’t worry. Ding Shan will definitely return it personally.”
“Yeah. I thought you were busy? Why are you here all of a sudden?”
Lu Qi asked himself the same question the moment he got into the car.
Lu Qi was about to speak when Old Master Ding was looking for Cheng Ling.
“Old Master Ding is calling me. Do you want to have dinner together?”
Lu Qi swallowed the answer that he had at the tip of his tongue.
“I still have work to do, so I won’t join you.”
“Okay.”
Cheng Ling quickened her pace and jumped down the stairs. Her ponytail was swinging, and the afterglow of the setting sun swayed left and right along with the tip of her ponytail.
Then, Cheng Ling turned back. “Are you staying here tonight?”
Lu Qi nodded. “I have a dinner party here tonight, so I won’t be able to go back in time.”
“Then after my dinner with Old Master Ding, I’ll see if I have time to check your pulse. I’ll contact you on WeChat.”
Cheng Ling waved the phone in her hand and quickened her pace down the stairs. Soon, she disappeared from Lu Qi’s sight.
It had been a long time since school ended. Thus there were very few students in campus.
Lu Qi walked back the way he came.
After the sun set, the temperature dropped sharply. Fortunately, Lu Qi had been wearing more clothes than the others.
He adjusted his black windbreaker and walked out of the teaching building in the twilight.
“Hello, hello!” A girl’s voice came from behind him.
“Hello, are you a senior in our school?”
Lu Qi turned around. There were two girls in school uniforms, holding books in their hands. They looked at him shyly.
“Sorry, I’m not.” Lu Qi laughed to himself. He actually looked so young?
The long-haired girl standing in front was pushed forward by the girl behind her. After a long while, the long-haired girl said boldly, “Can I have your phone number?”
Lu Qi politely refused and turned to leave.
The sky turned dark very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the last trace of light at the edge of the clouds had disappeared.
He put on the black windbreaker and gradually walked into the night.
With his body, did he still have the right to love? Lu Qi had long lost hope.
