Someone said, “Old Master Jiang is coming out.”
Zheng Dandan and Xin Yuan couldn’t help but look up.
“President Jiang asked me to apologize to you. He didn’t know that his subordinates could make such a big scene. The main reason is that there are a lot of single dogs in the Spiritual Master Association, and the necessary networking can help them socialize. In other words, it can promote fertility. The higher-ups have strict requirements in this regard …” Xue Fei “humbly” explained to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng thought for a moment and could understand Jiang Jinian’s helplessness. He nodded, and said, “Okay, but I have to leave in a bit. Help me say hello to President Jiang.”
“Mr. Lu, don’t worry. I’ll pass on your message.”
Lu Sheng glanced at her. Xue Fei suddenly remembered that she seemed to have said something wrong again.
Mr. Lu doesn’t like people calling him “Mister.”
At this time, there was a commotion in the crowd in front of them. Jiang Jinian, wearing a Tang suit and full of energy, strode out, surrounded by a few people.
“President Jiang is coming out.” Xue Fei said quickly.
Lu Sheng looked at Jiang Jinian quietly, and Jiang Jinian quickly noticed him. It was easy for a Level 4 Spiritual Master to find someone in the crowd. Jiang Jinian walked straight to him.
The crowd and the crowd’s eyes followed Jiang Jinian’s footsteps. Soon, Jiang Jinian came up to Lu Sheng and said apologetically, “Mr. Lu, I’m so sorry …”
Lu Sheng shook his head. “It’s okay. President Jiang has a lot of responsibilities. I’m happy to be able to help.”
“Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Lu.” Jiang Jinian heaved a sigh of relief. He raised his head and announced loudly to everyone in the room, “The person standing next to me is the new genius Level 4 Spiritual Master of the Dongning Province’s Spiritual Master Association. Mr. Lu Sheng. Mr. Lu is only 17 years old this year. Compared to him, I’m really an old man. I’m really ashamed to stand beside him …”
Jiang Jinian was not stingy with his praise for Lu Sheng. He almost praised Lu Sheng to the heavens.
However, just the first few sentences were enough to cause an uproar in this not-so-grand banquet.
“Seventeen years old, Level 4 Spiritual Master! Oh my god …”
“Did I hear that right?”
“That’s too amazing. He hasn’t even taken the college entrance examination yet.”
“A dragon among men, a real dragon among men!”
Almost everyone’s eyes were focused on Lu Sheng.
All kinds of exclamations, shock, and disbelief were heard.
For a moment, Lu Sheng seemed to be surrounded by countless spotlights, shining brightly.
In the crowd below, Xin Yuan, who was so shocked that she lost control of her expression and was so stunned that she could not say a word, stood there in a daze. She did not notice that the red wine glass in her hand had slipped to the ground.
She only heard Zheng Dandan’s complicated voice.
“Xin Yuan, how can a person like him, who can step on stars and shine like the sun, be the kind of person you said, a freeloader…” Xin Yuan’s mind was blank. She felt as if countless planes were whizzing past her head.
Buzz buzz buzz —
She could not help but tremble.
***
Just as Lu Sheng said, he left right after showing his face. If it weren’t for Jiang Jinian’s sake, he wouldn’t have even shown up at the banquet. Those who chased after him, stood on their tiptoes, stretched their necks, and tried to hand him their business cards, he ignored them all.
Fortunately, he had the excuse of being young. Wasn’t it normal for a young genius to be a little arrogant?
Lu Sheng easily avoided the harassment of the bored crowd and left the manor with his powerful spiritual power that was close to Level 5.
Even Jiang Jinian didn’t notice when he left. Fortunately, this place wasn’t too remote. Lu Sheng hailed a taxi and went straight to the hotel.
On the way back, Lu Sheng leaned against the car window and stared at the reflection of his shadow on the black glass window.
He was dressed in an elegant black suit. He had thick black hair and handsome facial features. His deep and calm eyes flickered with a sharp light like a knife from time to time.
Lu Sheng suddenly pulled off the dark blue bow tie on his neck and unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt collar. He said to the driver in the front seat, “Sir, please change the route. I want to go to the high-speed railway station.”
Lu Sheng was homesick.
He wanted to go back to Baihe City right away. As for the luggage he left at the hotel, he could ask Xue Fei or Jiang Jinian to send it back. There was nothing important in it anyway. The taxi turned around on the dark road. Lu Sheng relaxed as he looked at the night scenery that flashed by outside the car.
This was the life he wanted.
Simple and pure, with only family and martial arts to accompany him.
Fuck the high society.
After all, I’m just an ordinary high school student from an ordinary family.
The teenager’s face reflected in the car window showed a satisfied smile. It gradually merged with the lights of a thousand homes in the distance.
…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Someone knocked on the door.
“Brother, get up quickly. Breakfast is getting cold!” It was his sister Lu Qinghe’s voice.
Lu Sheng slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. A visible white stream of air shot to the opposite wall like an arrow, blowing the game character posters on the wall.
Lu Sheng opened his eyes, stood up, and replied, “I’m coming.”
A minute later, Lu Sheng opened the door. His sister, Lu Qinghe, was looking up at him while eating a bun.
“Why are you so much taller after coming back from a trip?”
Lu Qinghe doubtfully used her hand to compare the height difference between her and Lu Sheng’s and muttered.
“It’s you who’s getting shorter again.” Lu Sheng casually pushed aside Lu Qinghe who was blocking his way, walked to the living room, and sat down at the dining table.
“You don’t even brush your teeth when you wake up. So dirty!” Lu Qinghe caught up with him in small steps and sat down beside Lu Sheng with a look of disgust.
Lu Sheng casually picked up a meat bun and took a small bite. He calmly replied, “I already brushed my teeth when I woke up at five in the morning. Besides, at my level of martial arts, even if I don’t brush my teeth every day, my mouth will still be fragrant and healthy.”
“You were already up, and you still want me to wake you up?”
Lu Qinghe looked at him with disdain and said, “At your level of martial arts … What level do you think you are? Do you think you are a Master Martial Artist? You don’t even brush your teeth and you still have a healthy mouth … Hmph …”
But as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Qinghe suddenly reacted.
Needless to say, she really didn’t know what level her brother Lu Sheng was at now.
She could only feel that Lu Sheng was becoming more and more mysterious, and the aura around him was getting stronger and stronger. Sometimes, just a look from him could make her hair stand on end like a mouse seeing a cat.
He was scarier than the Level 3 or even Level 4 Martial Artist teachers in the school.
Lu Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Qinghe’s daily quarrel. He easily suppressed her with a few words.
“Now that the school is closed, you don’t have to go to school, right? After breakfast, I will test your strength. Don’t forget the message I sent you earlier. The martial arts supplement that I, Lu Sheng, wholeheartedly sponsored is not so easy to take. ”
“Uh …” Hearing this, Lu Qinghe suddenly stopped talking.
