C40 Lecture (2/2)

”Got it, where else are you hurt?”

Seeing that he was trying to pull up his skirt as if no one was around, Ye Guan pushed him away shyly. The two then entered the room.

In the restaurant, dishes were already being set up one after the other. From their familiarity with each other, Yuan Zi and Lu Zhen were quite happy to sit and play together. But ever since Steward Ye entered, Qiao Xin Yi's eyes had been avoiding her.

It could be seen that she was afraid.

Ye Guan and Lu Jin Ting sat down in a row, and Lu Jin took a seat. Lu Jin Ting was carefully taking care of her injured arm and knee, and didn't pay any attention to the people around her.

Qiao Xinyi watched on the side with a pale face, but the dishes in the kitchen hadn't arrived yet.

”Grandfather, what happened today might have been a misunderstanding. I've already asked the supervisor, and she was even injured during the group race …”

Saying this, Qiao Xinyi could no longer hold it in, the corners of her eyes were red as she bit her lower lip, interrupting Lu Jin Ting's words to defend herself.

”I didn't intend to complain, but back then, Sister Guan and Teacher Yu went to the hospital for a long time and I didn't return. That was why I called Uncle Lu.”

Her grievances were vented out in one go, and in the end, she was even choked with sobs. Lu Zhen watched from the side, but it just so happened that Lu Jin Ting didn't care about this and was indifferent.

”Yi Yi, don't cry. No one in my family is blaming you. You brought a group to the school sports meet so many times that nothing happened, but this time someone got injured. Luckily, the group is fine.”

From the start, no one was worried about Supervisor Ye's injuries. Just like in her previous life, everyone had the feeling that she was ostracized. At that time, she didn't know how to curry favor with Lu Jin Ting, which was why he had completely lost the support of the Lu family.

After suffering a setback, he gained intelligence. Although Chief Steward Ye felt wronged, he didn't try to defend himself.

Lu Zhen, who was sitting on the small ball, anxiously ran around in circles while struggling with his two calves, still jumped down and went in front of Steward Ye to protect him.

”No!” Mama took me first today! We got the championship! ”

His round face was flushed red as he panted anxiously. He did not want his grandfather and grandfather to misunderstand him.

He reached out his hand to hug the ball of flesh and moved, but then pulled at the wound, causing his face to contort in pain.

”Be good, Mama, Grandpa, Dad …” ”Today, it was also because I was inexperienced. Familiarity makes perfect. Moreover, Miss Qiao has taught me a lot today. Next time, this kind of thing will not happen again.”

Originally, he thought that this girl would talk back because she was once headstrong and willful. However, after suffering such grievances today, not only did Ye Guan not defend himself, he even sincerely admitted his mistakes.

If things were to go on like this, the Lu Clan would probably get into trouble.

Old Master Lu coughed, ”Forget it, as long as I'm fine.”

At that time, Lu Jin Ting hadn't known that Lu Zhen had suggested for Qiao Xinyi to help with the group. Now that they were silent, Supervisor Ye clearly knew that it was better to have less things to do, so he didn't say anything more.

After dinner, the atmosphere was gloomy. Lu Jin Ting had taken care of Manager Ye's inconvenient hands the entire time. Because Qiao Xin Yi had done something shameful, he could only silently lower his head to the side and didn't even dare to breathe.

It was getting late, and with the lesson from last time, Qiao Xinyi didn't dare ask for Lu Jin Ting to drive her home. Lu Zhen immediately had the driver drive her away.

Since Lu Jin Ting had been left behind to talk with the old man, and Chief Steward Ye had cleared them of whatever they said, it simply meant that he wasn't a competent mother.

After Qiao Xinyi left, she felt much more relaxed. She went straight to the courtyard to admire the red maple under the setting sun.

The autumn air was cool and refreshing, the maple trees swayed in the evening breeze of Xiao Su, the dead leaves whirled and fell.

Steward Ye took two steps forward. Just as he was about to extend his hand, a figure suddenly walked towards her.
