Logging 10,000 Years into the Future - Chapter 177

Chapter 177

Lu Hai’s expression was a bit complicated.

Lu Sheng spread out his spiritual power and saw the women next door who had always been at odds with the Lu family standing outside the yard. She carried a pile of gift boxes in her hands. Her posture was humble and pitiful, like a dog that had fallen into the water.

Lu Sheng asked for the reason. Lu Qinghe told him what happened in the morning with embellishment.

When she finished, she said hatefully, “That bad woman. She quickly jumped from arrogance to deference. I hate this kind of person the most … hmph!”

Lu Sheng thought for a moment and said to Lu Qinghe, “Go out and accept her gifts.”

Lu Qinghe looked at Lu Sheng in disbelief and shouted, “Brother.”

Lu Sheng was unmoved. He just ordered, “Go.”

“Dad!” Lu Qinghe turned to look at Lu Hai.

Lu Hai didn’t know what to say. He just urged, “Listen to your brother. Go.”

“Okay.” Lu Qinghe walked out reluctantly.

Lu Hai said to Lu Sheng with emotion, “Son, you have indeed grown up. Dad can’t understand you anymore. Sigh, Dad is really old …”

At this time, Lu Qinghe had already walked back with a pile of gift boxes. She handed them to Lu Sheng and said angrily, “Take them!”

Lu Sheng didn’t care about the anger on her face. He took the gift boxes from Lu Qinghe, then opened the door and casually threw them. The gift boxes drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed far outside the yard. They rolled around the feet of the woman.

Lu Sheng didn’t bother to look at the woman’s expression anymore. He turned to Lu Hai and said seriously, “Dad, I inherited this breadth of mind from you. It’s too broad for me grasp. I don’t think I can learn it.”

After that, he walked back to the table and waited for dinner. Lu Hai was stunned for a few seconds. His eyes quickly softened. A touch of unprecedented satisfaction and pride appeared on his face.

“Eat! Son, have a few more drinks with Dad! ”

“Okay!”

Lu Qinghe also beamed with joy and gave Lu Sheng a thumbs up.

“Brother, you really are awesome!”

Outside the door, the woman looked at the scattered gift boxes at her feet. Her body trembled and she looked up in the direction of her home. She saw the husband behind the curtains on the second-floor window. He turned around and walked away silently. The woman’s lips trembled. The last trace of blood on her face faded. She left in a daze.

The impact of Xia Pingnan’s visit didn’t subside until three days later. Xia Pingnan’s warning before he left was quite effective. All the residents of the community kept their mouths shut. The news about Lu Sheng only spread in their small private circle. It didn’t reach the ears of the media.

The family living next door to Lu Sheng secretly moved away the second night after Xia Pingnan’s visit. It was quiet, as if they had never appeared. Everyone in the Lu family knew the reason for their move. They were happy to see peace return to them.

After the visit of the provincial governor, the relationship between the Lu family and the old professor’s family improved. Lu Hai would play chess with the old professor from time to time. They got along quite well.

Two weeks later, the results of the examinations were released. The cutoff scores of the various universities were also announced. The news of the Martial Dragon Champion in Baihe City was highlighted.

That night, the entire Baihe City was boiling.

But for many people, Lu Sheng was just a name, a glory, a “star” who rose quickly like a comet and shone with boundless radiance.

Other than the circle of people who knew Lu Sheng, for most of the ordinary citizens of Baihe City, the title of Martial Dragon Champion in the country was still too far away from them.

…

“She could get into Dongning University of Martial Arts, but she went to a second-tier martial arts university in the Capital Province (Jingdu)! Tell me, is she crazy?!”

“Sigh, it’s not like second-tier martial arts universities in Capital Province are bad. Capital Province is the holy land of martial arts. A second-tier martial arts university can compare to a first-tier martial arts university in a normal place.”

“That’s still a second-tier martial arts university! She can only get a second-tier graduation certificate after graduating!”

“Calm down, calm down …”

“It’s all because you spoiled her!”

Yang Yuan heard her parents arguing fiercely outside the door. She secretly covered her ears. Looking at the news about the entrance examination results on the computer screen in front of her, Yang Yuan muttered softly.

“First in the country … Martial Dragon Champion …”

Yang Yuan gently pulled the purple ribbon on her ponytail. Her eyes flashed, but no one knew what she was thinking. After a while, Yang Yuan’s expression became firm again. She took out her phone and quickly clicked on a contact with a cute cartoon character. She carefully sent a message.

“Qinghe, is your brother asleep?”

…

“What kind of bullshit medicine is this? It’s so expensive! It even made me sick from eating it. I’m telling you, if this matter isn’t resolved, I’ll come here every day!”

A few burly men stepped on the glass shards on the floor and walked out of the pharmacy with the signboard Spirit Saint Pharmaceuticals.

Behind them were a few pale and bruised shop assistants. The burly men walked across the street and quickly found a young man in his twenties at the entrance of a small supermarket. The man was wearing a white suit. His appearance and temperament seemed out of place.

“How is it?”

The young man had one hand in his pocket. His eyes were aimlessly searching the ice cream cabinet in front of him. He casually asked the burly men.

The burly men respectfully replied: “In at most three days, this store will have to close.”

“Good.”

The young man nodded and said: “Once it’s done, you will be rewarded.”

“Thank you, sir.”

The burly men thanked him and then quickly left as if they didn’t know the young man.

After the burly men left, the young man finally picked out an ice cream that satisfied him. He took it out and then took out a phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

“It’ll be done in three days …” The young man tore open the ice cream packaging and gently took a bite. His expression seemed a bit lazy and bored.

“The person behind it? Right now we can only find a high school student. Talent, so-so. But it seems the president of the Martial Arts Association appreciates him …”

“Are you kidding me? Of course, it’s the president of the Martial Arts Association … That’s why I said it’s very boring. It won’t cause any trouble …”

“Then I’ll rush back this week …” The young man hadn’t finished speaking when he suddenly saw a news broadcast on the TV screen in the small supermarket.

“Warm congratulations to our city’s student Lu Sheng for obtaining first place in this year’s college entrance exam. According to our understanding, student Lu Sheng …”

A photo appeared on the TV screen. Seeing the face of the person in the photo, the young man suddenly spat out the half-eaten ice cream in his mouth. His originally calm face was now filled with shock and horror.

“No, no, the situation has changed … The person behind the He family is not simple!” The young man threw away the ice cream, made a phone call and hurriedly left.

Behind him, the supermarket owner chased after him and cursed: “Hey, hey, you haven’t paid yet … Fuck you son of a bitch. Dressed like a dog, you even want to steal an ice cream!”
