Chapter 198 Unexpected Changes
Chapter 198 Unexpected Changes
After the New Year, the two people who needed to leave home packed their luggage with reluctance.
Lu Yuanqing went into Lu Yuanbo and Lu Mingxi's room and chased the noisy kids out.
"Third Brother!" Lu Yuanhuan called out to him with a puzzled look.
Lu Yuanqing's expression was truly not good; in fact, it was quite serious.
"Is Uncle going to tell us to behave again?" Lu Mingxi asked while stuffing his clothes into his pocket.
Because she didn't turn around, she naturally didn't see Lu Yuanqing's expression, so her tone was more relaxed than Lu Yuanhuan's.
Lu Yuanqing didn't know how to start the conversation; saying too much would easily expose his true intentions.
If I don't tell them, I worry about what might happen to the two of them while they're out alone.
Especially Lu Mingxi, he's such a troublesome person!
Hesitation is hesitation.
But what needs to be said still needs to be said.
If something happens, he won't be able to get there in time, even if he's in his hometown.
"You two come here for a moment!" Lu Yuanqing plopped down in a chair in the room and said calmly.
Although Lu Yuanhuan and Lu Mingxi were puzzled, they obediently sat on the bed, facing Lu Yuanqing.
Lu Yuanqing remained silent for a moment, thinking about how to start the conversation.
Lu Yuanhuan and Lu Mingxi exchanged a suspicious glance, both puzzled by his behavior.
What's wrong? Why is it so hard to say?
"Uncle Three..."
Lu Mingxi was about to say something when Lu Yuanqing raised his hand to interrupt him!
Lu Yuanqing tentatively asked, "Have you read the newspaper?"
???
Several question marks flashed brightly above their heads.
"No!" Lu Yuanhuan said!
Besides Lu Yuanqing, only Lu Mingdong in the family knows how to read newspapers!
Lu Yuanqing spent so much money subscribing to newspapers every month, but only he and Lu Mingdong benefited from it.
Lu Yuanqing shook his head speechlessly, "I told you all to read more books and newspapers, but I don't know what you've been busy with all day!"
Lu Yuanhuan/Lu Mingxi: "..."
Why are they all so serious? Just because I said they don't read the newspaper?
Lu Yuanqing: "I recently read the newspaper and I feel that something bad might happen. You are far away in the city, so safety should be the top priority. After you get to school, do not leave the school grounds, and do not participate in any small group activities, do you understand?"
Lu Yuanhuan/Lu Mingxi: "..."
Lu Mingxi: "Third Uncle, what are you talking about? Have you lost your mind?"
She muttered something to herself and then reached out to touch Lu Yuanqing's forehead to test him.
Lu Yuanqing slapped her hand away with a dark expression, his tone unusually serious, "Did you hear me!"
Seeing that Lu Yuanqing was about to get angry, Lu Yuanhuan was startled and quickly said, "Third Brother, we heard you. We're going back to school. We won't leave the school or participate in any activities!"
After saying that, she tugged at the stunned Lu Mingxi.
Indeed, Lu Yuanqing had seen people angry before, but it was rare to see him so angry at his own family.
Lu Mingxi dared not take it lightly, "Uncle, we understand!"
Lu Yuanqing sighed inwardly; he hadn't wanted to be so fierce.
But I'm afraid Lu Mingxi won't take it seriously, and something might happen!
Even if they agree, he's still not entirely at ease!
“Especially you!” Lu Yuanqing pointed at Lu Mingxi and said, “I don’t care what your usual social habits are, but in the next few years, you’d better behave yourself. I’ll have Cheng Xia and your aunt keep an eye on you. If you don’t behave, I’ll go to your school and expel you. You’ll have to come back to the village!”
Geek!
Not only was Lu Mingxi frightened by his words, but Lu Mingxi was also shocked!
Lu Yuanqing cared deeply about their studies and supported their education; not only did they see it, but the entire village did as well.
But now they're actually saying they'll expel Lu Mingxi from school.
The situation appears to be extremely, extremely, extremely serious!
Lu Mingxi sat up straight and said seriously, "Don't worry, Uncle. When I get back to school, I will study hard and Xiaxia and I will do nothing but study. We won't talk to anyone! We won't even leave the school unless necessary!"
After she finished speaking, Lu Yuanhuan quickly assured her!
Lu Yuanqing took a deep breath and softened his tone, "I believe you. You must remember your promise to me. If anyone dares to disobey..."
Tsk!
What harsh words should I say next?
He really didn't know what harsh words to say to the two well-behaved girls.
It's not that I hadn't thought of it, but after careful consideration, I felt I couldn't say it out loud, lest they be too hurt!
Lu Yuanhuan chimed in, "Third Brother, I promise I'll be obedient, and so will Xiao west!"
Lu Mingxi nodded quickly: "Yes, yes!!!"
Seeing their serious expressions of assurance, Lu Yuanqing felt a slight sense of relief.
"Just remember what I said, and behave yourself for the next few years!"
Lu Yuanhuan/Lu Mingxi: "Mmm!"
After explaining everything, Lu Yuanqing gave a few more instructions and left.
As soon as they left, Lu Yuanhuan relaxed, and Lu Mingxi looked completely relieved, collapsing back onto the bed.
"Auntie, why is Uncle San suddenly so serious? It scared me to death!" Lu Mingxi was genuinely frightened.
It's even more terrifying than the two times she was caught having 'chaotic' interpersonal relationships!
Lu Yuanhuan frowned, his expression serious, as if he were guessing about the circumstances surrounding Lu Yuanqing's misfortune.
But after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't find anything that scared or dissatisfied him!
The village is getting better and better, which is something that should make anyone happy, but Lu Yuanqing is so nervous.
"Xiao west, have you noticed that Uncle San's mood wasn't very high throughout the Spring Festival? He was even quite nervous. What was he nervous about?"
Lu Mingxi thought for a moment, then suddenly sat up, his face showing sudden realization, "Could something have happened? Uncle San really wasn't in much spirits during the New Year!"
"I don't know!" Lu Yuanhuan said, frowning.
She genuinely didn't know!
There was not a single sign.
The two of them frowned and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.
When I got back to school and woke up one morning, everything had changed!
After returning to school, Lu Mingxi kept Lu Yuanqing's words in mind, abandoned all interpersonal interactions, and spent his days with Cheng Xia in the dormitory except for attending classes.
Then one day in class.
A group of young people, not very old, shouted slogans and rushed into the classroom. They beat up the teacher who was giving them a lesson and dragged him out of the classroom.
Sitting in her seat, Lu Mingxi watched the whole thing in a daze. Then she remembered Lu Yuanqing's words, and she tensed up, instinctively grabbing Cheng Xia's arm.
"Xia Xia!"
Cheng Xia was also terrified, and all the students in the classroom were shocked by this sudden turn of events.
But because of Lu Yuanqing's words, Cheng Xia calmed down immediately. "It's okay, Xiao Xi. Uncle said we shouldn't care about anything, we should pretend we didn't see anything, we just need to study!"
