Chapter 94: Rivals in Love

Chapter 94: Rivals in Love

Xie Zheng made an outrageous demand in front of outsiders, and it was clear that Old Master Xie was losing face.

Xie Zheng was probably used to sponging off his parents, so he wasn't embarrassed at all. Looking at his grandfather, he said firmly, "It's all temporary. I'll pay you back later."

He was already handsome, and the confidence on his face at that moment made people inexplicably feel that he could really succeed and make money in his music business.

Old Master Xie coughed lightly, unwilling to continue the conversation, "Xiao Zheng, let's talk about this when we get back."

Although they are very happy and gratified that their eldest grandson can stay by their side and bring them joy, they are also very gratified.

But this brat doesn't earn a single penny; he asks them for thousands of dollars at a time.

It's really hard to resist.

The combined pension of the elderly couple is barely 5,000 yuan a year.

If it weren't for Xie Zheng's parents sending money back every quarter, they really wouldn't be able to support this spendthrift.

This brat used to have some shame; he wouldn't ask them for money like this. He and his friends made music, and it seemed like he could earn some pocket money that way.

Ever since he told Lao Lu that they were willing to raise their eldest grandson, this brat has been living a life of his own, his shamelessness has grown thicker than a city wall.

As Xie Zheng's cousin, Xie Yun couldn't bear to see her nephew, who was the same age as her son Lu Ye, turn out like this.

Her family members, whether her own brother and sister-in-law or her cousins, are all very hardworking and outstanding people.

Xie Zheng is the only one who doesn't have a proper job yet...

They didn't expect Xie Zheng to reach the heights of his parents, but at least...

At the very least, one must have the ability to support oneself, right?

Xie Yun looked at Xie Zheng and said with a smile, "Xiao Zheng, how about you ask your uncle to introduce you to a job?"

"Auntie, what kind of job is it?" Xie Zheng asked casually.

"You've at least attended a vocational school, so you shouldn't have any problem finding a job in any of the major factories in Nancheng."

When Xie Zheng heard that his cousin wanted to introduce him to a job at the factory, he immediately lost interest and waved his hand in refusal, saying, "Don't get involved in any work that has nothing to do with music."

Xie Yun, "..."

When Old Master Lu saw Xie Zheng's behavior, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him.

If this were his own grandson, he would definitely beat him with his cane.

Old Xie was a soldier, how could he have raised his juniors to be so bad?

Finally, Old Master Lu couldn't hold back any longer and, looking at Old Master Xie angrily, spoke up.

"Old Xie, you guys better not mess with Bai Zhi anymore. He can't even support himself right now, so he's not fit for marriage. Not only Bai Zhi, but don't let him get involved with any other girls either. Let him grow up a bit more."

Old Xie looked worried.

They had originally thought that if Lu Ye, that blockhead, didn't take the initiative, their family could intercept him halfway and let Xie Zheng and Bai Zhi get to know each other.

But the fact that my son doesn't have a proper job is a big problem.

No, he needs to think of a way to put an end to his dream of making music.

Lu Shan asked Grandpa Lu, "Grandpa, how did Xiao Ye's meeting with Bai Zhi go?"

"We had a very pleasant conversation, a very pleasant conversation indeed."

When recalling their meeting, Old Lu slapped his thigh excitedly.

"I knew that a girl as pretty, smart and capable as Xiaozhi would definitely win over this brat's heart."

With tears welling up in her eyes, Wang Tingting looked at Wang Shufen with a wronged expression.

What to do about a silent inquiry?

Wang Shufen's expression was also complicated. She patted her niece's hand, signaling her to calm down.

The old man always liked to exaggerate.

How pleasant can things get between two people who are having a great first meeting?

Even if Lu Ye is already taken, as long as they try, they can still loosen the soil around him.

Besides, it was only the first time they met.

It's not too late.

Xie Zheng was still resentful because he couldn't get Bai Zhi to make scar removal medicine for him. Just now, Old Master Lu complained that he didn't have a job and wasn't worthy of pursuing Bai Zhi. He was very indignant and stared intently at Lu Ye, saying that he wanted to compete with Lu Ye fairly.

This terrified Old Master Lu and the rest of the Lu family.

Lu Ye was just starting to show signs of understanding, but if Xie Zheng interfered, it would definitely ruin things.

Meeting Xie Zheng's provocative gaze, Lu Ye's usually calm eyes flickered slightly.

His face was gloomy.

Xie Zheng may not actually like Bai Zhi.

However, once Xie Zheng is certain that he will pursue Bai Zhi, he will inevitably step in to interfere and cause trouble.

It must be admitted that Xie Zheng, a womanizer who has been through countless romances, is more adept at handling situations and pursuing girls than he is.

He was afraid that Bai Zhi would be harmed if Xie Zheng got involved.

Lu Ye didn't confront Xie Zheng directly. He gave Xie Zheng a warning look and planned to go upstairs. "Grandpa Xie, Grandpa, please sit down first. I'm going upstairs to change my clothes."

Xie Yun hurriedly said, "Go ahead, go ahead. You haven't stopped walking since you took the bus home this morning, you must be tired."

My son is injured and should not overexert himself for the time being; he should rest and recuperate.

Lu Zheng'an chimed in, "Yes, let's go and rest for a while."

Lu Ye went upstairs, and everyone chatted idly. Xie Zheng couldn't stay still and said he was going to work on his creative work.

Having witnessed firsthand what other people's children are like, Old Xie was extremely agitated and lost all interest in continuing her conversation with Old Lu.

He has to go back and give his eldest grandson a lesson in ideology.

"What are you doing creating art for? Come home with me."

With a huff, he and Xie Zheng left.

Lu Shan said she had work to do in the afternoon and needed to go back to the hospital.

Seeing that Wang Tingting was still sitting on the sofa, her eyes fixed on the direction Lu Ye had gone upstairs, showing no intention of leaving, Lu Shan's tone was heavy.

"Wang Tingting, you should go back too. I'll give you a ride."

Wang Tingting forced what she thought was a gentle smile. "Sister Lu Shan, you go to work. I won't go back yet. My cousin has finally come home, and I want to chat with him a bit more."

Lu Hai, who was playing with his pager, looked up when Wang Tingting mentioned him. He glanced at her indifferently and said, "Cousin, we're three or four years apart. There's a generation gap, and we don't have much to talk about. Why don't you ask my cousin to give you a ride?"

She's really messed with them.

Don't use him as a shield.
