BXBX NOVEL Chapter 370 - 370 Dispute
This message was sent before 11 o’clock last night.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Benwei typed a reply.
“Alright, then be careful!”
He went to wake Chu Yan up.
After a simple wash-up, Lu Benwei’s family arrived at the Eight Immortals Pavilion located in Sheraton Hotel. The hall was decorated in an ancient and elegant manner. It could accommodate twelve people.
Before they entered the hall, Chu Yan stopped Lu Benwei.
“Why don’t I not go in? It’s not good for an outsider like me to have a meal with your family.”
Lu Benwei smiled and patted the back of Chu Yan’s hand.
“We’re family, what’s there to be afraid of?”
Hearing this, Chu Yan immediately blushed and said weakly, “Alright, then.”
With that, Lu Benwei’s family entered the hall. In an instant, Chu Yan became the focus of the audience.
Her beautiful hair fell to her neck, her eyes were soft, and her temperament was like a quiet lake bathed in the moon, making people feel ashamed. Looking from afar, it was like the sun rising in the morning glow.
Lu Benwei’s grandparents, his eldest uncle’s family of four, and youngest uncle had all arrived and were looking at Lu Benwei’s family in shock.
Lu Dayong was the first to speak. He smiled and said, “What’s going on? The last time we had a family gathering was not long ago. Why are you all looking at us like that?”
As he spoke, Lu Dayong took care of Chu Yan. “Come, Little Yan, you sit here first. Let me introduce you. This is Little Yan, Little Lu’s classmate.”
“Oh, I thought she was your son’s future wife. It turns out she’s just Lu Benwei’s classmate.”
This was an extremely sharp and mean voice, and the owner of the voice was Lu Benwei’s aunt.
Lu Benwei sneered. “That’s right. It’s not easy for Eldest Uncle to treat us to a meal. I specially invited my classmate to eat with us and get back what we originally owed.”
His aunt’s face immediately turned red. She turned her head away and secretly cursed. “Little brat, why don’t you stuff yourself to death?”
“Lu Benwei, how can you speak to your aunt like that? We’re family!” Lu Dayong reprimanded. “Why do you have to make such a clear distinction?”
Lu Benwei stood up helplessly and bowed. “I’m sorry, Aunt.”
His aunt still looked away and did not accept Lu Benwei’s apology. “Stop echoing each other.”
“Alright, alright. The guest is here, so stop talking.”
Old Master Lu knocked his walking stick hard on the ground and stopped the fight between the two families. Only then did this battle stop.
On the side, Lu Benwei’s uncle gently poked Lu Benwei’s arm.
“Not bad, Little Lu. You’ve finally found a chance to provoke Sister-in-law.”
Lu Benwei’s uncle, Lu Shuangquan, was about the same age as Lu Benwei. As he was not married, he had been living with his brother’s family and Old Master Lu.
Usually, Lu Shuangquan was always bullied by Lu Benwei’s aunt.
“This is…?” Lu Shuangquan was very interested in Chu Yan.
“I’m Lu Benwei’s classmate, Chu Yan!” Chu Yan said obediently.
“Oh, so you’re also a top student at Zhejiang Hunter University?”
Lu Shuangquan was very happy.
“Hello, top student. My name is Lu Shuangquan.”
The three of them began to chat about their daily lives.
“You two don’t know,” Lu Shuangquan said, “Before you came, Sister-in-law had been talking bad about your family.”
“Did she say anything bad about Lu Benwei?” Chu Yan was curious about the gossip about Lu Benwei’s family.
“Well, it’s because Lu Benwei won the first place in the provincial martial arts assessment. He got into Zhejiang Hunter University?”
Then, he swallowed and said, “Be careful later, she might use this matter to find trouble with you guys again.”
As expected!
When the dishes were almost ready, Lu Benwei’s aunt suddenly smiled and said, “Lu Benwei, I just thought about it, it’s my fault.”
Lu Benwei was a little wary, thinking that his aunt was trying to please him for no reason.
So out of courtesy, Lu Benwei said, “Aunt, I didn’t take it to heart. It was my fault just now. I shouldn’t have offended you.”
“That’s good.” Lu Benwei’s aunt smiled and nodded. “It’s just that I have a presumptuous request that I need your help with.”
As Lu Benwei expected, this old fox revealed its tail.
“That’s right, Benwei,” Lu Youzhi said, “There’s really something I need your help with.”
“Eldest Uncle, just say it!” Lu Benwei was very polite on the surface.
At this time, Lu Benwei’s aunt patted Lu Feifei’s head.
“Feifei should be taking the martial arts assessment this year. Since you’re a top student at Zhejiang Hunter University, can you help us find a way to get Lu Feifei into Zhejiang Hunter University?”
“It’s not so simple. Just let Feifei get a good score!” Lu Benwei said.
Lu Youzhi and his wife looked a little embarrassed and said, “Lu Benwei, you also know that unless there’s a mutation, it’s impossible to awaken a good class.”
The two of them spoke in an extremely obscure manner.
The reason for this was Lu Benwei’s cousin, Lu Feifei. Not only he was not talented, but he was also fat. He would pant heavily after taking two steps. Even if one was lucky, getting a good result in the martial arts assessment was like ascending to heaven.
Lu Feifei, the son of Lu Youzhi and Lu Benwei’s cousin, spoke up, “Brother Benwei, can you do us a favor and introduce us to a teacher from Zhejiang Hunter University?”
...
Lu Benwei was in a difficult situation. The admission to hunter universities was fair and open. It was almost impossible to get in through the back door!
“I’m afraid not. It’s not easy to get into a hunter university,” Lu Benwei said lightly.
His aunt’s expression drooped on the spot and she said coldly, “Lu Benwei, just help your cousin. Are you going to let your cousin be useless for the rest of his life? After this matter is settled, I’ll give you a lot of benefits.”
The aunt added after a pause, “Don’t forget, our family is not your family. We’re very rich!”
Lu Benwei sneered in his heart and said, “Aunt, this really isn’t a matter of good or bad. The recruitment of hunter universities is fair and open. If you’re found to have entered through the back door, you’ll be punished!
“Moreover, after entering the hunter university, as a professional hunter, you have to face monsters! You only thought about letting cousin Feifei enter Zhejiang Hunter University, but you didn’t think about what he could do in the future…”
