You need to raise your pet using a system [Era]

Chapter 147 Lu Yuanqing is angry

The first time Lu Yuanqing's parents were called in was because of something related to relationships. He had a strong premonition that he would encounter this situation again.

I just didn't expect this day to come so soon.

"Brother, am I blind? There are three boys with Xiaoxi, right? What are they doing? Are they bullying Xiaoxi?" Lu Yuanbo, carrying large and small bags, stood with Lu Yuanqing in a corner of the campus, watching the scene not far away!

After shopping, Lu Yuanqing discovered that Lu Mingxi's school was closer to Lu Yuanhuan's school, so he excitedly brought Lu Yuanbo to Lu Mingxi's school first.

The school was so big; even if it was a vocational school, it was a vocational school in the city, much bigger than the middle school in the commune.

However, Lu Yuanqing was not flustered at all. He knew where Lu Mingxi's dormitory was, so he didn't need to run around. He could just go to the dormitory and wait for him!

But before long, the two of them saw Lu Mingxi's group in the distance. Well, Cheng Xia wasn't with him, but Lu Mingxi was accompanied by three attentive young men.

Lu Yuanqing's face immediately darkened.

Lu Yuanbo, who probably hasn't even figured things out yet, kept nagging in Lu Yuanqing's ear.

"That must be Xiaoxi!"

"Brother, why are those three people so close to Xiaoxi?"

"What are they trying to do? Are they going to bully Xiaoxi?"

"I knew Xiaoxi and Xiaohuan would be bullied for coming all this way to study. Damn it, how dare they bully my niece! I'll beat them to death..."

Lu Yuanqing rolled his eyes and said irritably, "What do you want to do? Put your sleeves down!"

Lu Yuanbo's eyes widened in disbelief. "Brother, Xiao west has been bullied! I'm going to teach them a lesson!"

Look at those three boys, standing so close to Xiaoxi, and smiling so lewdly. I wonder what they're thinking!

Xiao Xi didn't dare refuse them, nor did she chase them away!

Lu Yuanqing was so exasperated he couldn't even roll his eyes anymore!

You idiot, a complete idiot!

"Open your eyes wider, those decorative ones! Take a good look at the situation!"

Lu Yuanbo: "..."

Don't think he didn't hear the sarcastic tone.

Lu Yuanbo was scolded, pursed his lips, and didn't dare to talk back, staring intently in Lu Mingxi's direction.

Upon closer inspection, it is indeed clearer and more understandable than at first glance.

From a distance, three boys beside Lu Mingxi were all wearing obsequious smiles. They were talking and constantly offering things to Lu Mingxi.

Lu Mingxi didn't take the things, but she didn't show any impatience on her face. She even smiled and talked to the three boys.

Lu Yuanbo frowned. Why was Xiao west still talking to the boy with such a good temper?

Not only did he speak in a good-natured manner, but Lu Yuanbo also had good eyesight; he could even see Lu Mingxi handling the three boys with remarkable flexibility!

The phrase "flexible and resilient" suddenly came to Lu Yuanbo's mind.

Whenever I see that scene, those four words come to mind without me even realizing it.

"Brother, is Xiaoxi going to find a boyfriend?" Lu Yuanbo asked blankly.

After all, why get so close to a guy if you're not dating him?

Uh, why are there three boys?

Lu Yuanbo scratched his head, dumbfounded!

Lu Yuanqing twitched the corners of his mouth and chuckled, a forced smile that didn't reach his eyes.

"You're asking me? Who should I ask?"

“Ask Xiao Xi!” Lu Yuanbo blurted out.

Lu Yuanqing glanced at him expressionlessly.

Lu Yuanbo shrank back and promptly shut his mouth!

Just then, Lu Mingxi approached and finally spotted Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo in the bustling crowd.

Lu Mingxi's expression changed drastically. She immediately took two quick steps, trying to shake off the three people following her.

Seeing this, Lu Yuanqing sneered, realizing that his attempt to cover up the truth was futile and that he had inadvertently confessed.

He had initially tried to comfort himself by telling himself not to make wild guesses based on his first impression.

He comforted himself, thinking that they were probably just classmates, and maybe they were talking about something important while walking together!

After all, with such an open and honest demeanor, there's absolutely nothing to overthink.

But she changed her expression!

Her expression changed!

It's a face!

Now!

Lu Yuanqing thought that his face must be blacker than the bottom of a pot right now!

"Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle!" Lu Mingxi approached with a "what's the use" attitude. Seeing that her third uncle's expression was getting worse, she took the initiative to call out to him.

After calling out to the person, he lowered his head, looking like he had made a mistake and was begging for forgiveness.

Ah!

Lu Yuanqing laughed in anger!

What is this? Actively admitting mistakes but never repenting?

At this moment, the three people following Lu Mingxi heard Lu Mingxi call the two men who had been looking at them with hostility as Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle.

Suddenly, for reasons unknown, the three of them didn't even dare to approach, and without saying a word, they turned and ran away in tacit agreement.

Ha ha!

Lu Yuanqing couldn't stop sneering.

"Is this your judgment?" Lu Yuanqing's cold voice rang out above Lu Mingxi's head.

Lu Mingxi, disregarding his guilt at being caught, abruptly looked up and retorted, "My taste is excellent; I wouldn't even look at them!"

"And Third Uncle, I didn't accept any gifts from anyone this time. I listened to you carefully and didn't want to promise them anything, so I won't accept their gifts!"

Lu Yuanqing sighed, and why did he feel a sense of relief?

Is Lu Mingxi's behavior too outrageous? Has his demand been so low?

"You didn't accept anything from them, that's fine, but do you think your behavior was alright?" Lu Yuanqing's eyebrows shot up in anger.

"There's a problem!" Lu Mingxi lowered his head again!

"Let's go!" Lu Yuanqing said coldly.

No matter what, you can't say these things at school. You need to find a quiet environment, somewhere without so many people.

……

Lu Mingxi had been keeping her head down for a long time, so long that she felt her neck might be ruined if she didn't raise it soon.

But she still didn't dare.

Especially when they felt those two unfriendly gazes above their heads.

Is Uncle San angry?

I'm really angry this time! We haven't spoken for so long!

She really didn't mean it; who knew she'd be caught?

If there were a way to undo mistakes, she would definitely buy a lot and keep them in reserve.

If only I had gone back to the dorm with Xiaxia today. If I hadn't gone with those three, my third uncle and the others wouldn't have seen me. If they hadn't seen me, I wouldn't be in such a pitiful state now.

Just as Lu Mingxi was filled with regret, Lu Yuanqing was also extremely annoyed.

How can a man who has never been in a relationship talk to his niece about romantic relationships?

He's not good at this kind of thing.

Can we not talk about it? Clearly, the situation has reached a point where it must be resolved.

Yes, Lu Mingxi learned his lesson from last time, so he would no longer accept kindness from others without any psychological burden.

However, Lu Yuanqing realized that he had been celebrating too soon.

Lu Mingxi seems to have a somewhat flawed understanding of the distance between men and women.

He didn't even know how to start the conversation, fearing that Lu Mingxi might say something shocking that would leave him speechless.

And so, the scene became eerily quiet.

Neither of them spoke. Lu Yuanbo blinked, looking at this person and then at that person.

"So, Xiaoxi, which of those three boys is your boyfriend?" Lu Yuanbo asked.

Lu Mingxi suddenly looked up, thanking her fourth uncle for breaking the eerie scene and saving her neck.

However, things still need to be explained clearly, especially to Uncle San.

"Fourth Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about! I'm still so young, what kind of relationship would I have! The people you just saw were my classmates!" Lu Mingxi carefully explained to Lu Yuanqing.

Lu Yuanqing really wanted to roll his eyes, but he felt that if he did, the atmosphere would become less serious, so he held back.

"Classmates?" Lu Yuanbo didn't think much of it, but he was puzzled: "But the way you two look at each other doesn't seem like you're just classmates!"

They were standing so close together, and Lu Mingxi was smiling as he talked to people. Could they really just be classmates?

But if they aren't classmates, then which of the three is Xiaoxi's crush?

Lu Yuanbo was puzzled, and without any sense of propriety, he asked directly.

The sight startled Lu Mingxi, who involuntarily looked at Lu Yuanqing. Seeing his still serious face, Lu Mingxi shrank back, almost burying his head in his neck again.

"Fourth Uncle, you've misunderstood. I have nothing to do with them. We're just classmates, not even friends. Don't talk nonsense. I'm still young and I would never date them!"

“But…” Lu Yuanbo wanted to continue asking, but Lu Yuanqing interrupted him by raising his hand.

"You say you're just classmates with them? You don't like them? Then why are you so close to them? What are you thinking?" Lu Yuanqing couldn't understand Lu Mingxi's thought process at all.

She used to accept gifts from others as a gesture of goodwill even if she didn't like them.

Lu Yuanqing could comfort herself with this thought, after all, a young girl who had never seen the world was indeed easily deceived by a little bit of benefit.

This shortcoming is nothing. Once she sees more of the world or has the ability to obtain it herself, she won't be fooled by a little benefit again.

He taught her last time to be independent and self-reliant, and not to depend on others for everything.

The result was quite obvious; Lu Mingxi did a good job later on.

At least now she doesn't accept gifts from others, and she knows that there should be reciprocity. In fact, when she encounters many problems, she will try to solve them on her own first. If she really can't solve them, she will seek help from Lu Yuanqing instead of other strangers.

Just when he was seeing the girl's values ​​becoming more and more upright, he witnessed this scene again today.

So, what exactly is Lu Mingxi thinking?

Lu Yuanqing felt that the girl's thoughts were really hard to guess.

He had already thought about it a lot. As someone who's been through it all, it's normal for him to want to be in a relationship.

He could understand why Lu Mingxi would have a crush on outstanding boys.

But Lu Yuanqing also wanted to understand something that Lu Yuanbo had been insisting on: Why were there three people?

Is my niece a scumbag?

But Lu Mingxi said he didn't like them and that they were just classmates.

Although Lu Yuanqing was angry, he still believed in Lu Mingxi.

One of her greatest strengths is that she can't lie; if she says she doesn't like something, she really means it.

I don't like it when people are so close to each other and they're all smiling like flowers.

Lu Yuanqing thought about it for a long time, and finally despaired. He still couldn't understand Lu Mingxi's mentality.

So he asked directly what Lu Mingxi was thinking.

Hearing Lu Yuanqing's calm tone, Lu Mingxi's vigilance lessened considerably, and he immediately gave Lu Yuanqing a silly grin.

"Hehe, Third Uncle, I really don't like them, but they all told me they liked me."

Lu Yuanqing brushed aside Lu Yuanbo, who was about to interrupt again, and nodded to Lu Mingxi, signaling her to continue.

Lu Mingxi: "They pursued me, but after thinking about it, I realized I didn't like them, so I didn't agree to be with them. Uncle, I'm a very good girl. You said that if you don't like someone, you can't accept their gifts, so even though they kept trying to give me things, I didn't accept them. Really, you have to believe me!"

Lu Yuanqing nodded. "I believe you on that point!"

"But... Xiao Xi, there's something I don't understand, and I need your help to explain it to me!"

Lu Mingxi sat up obediently and said, "Third Uncle, please speak!"

Lu Yuanqing pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally asked, "Since you've already decided you don't like them, why do you still associate with them?"

"Uh, Uncle didn't mean anything by it, he's just really curious!"

"After all, if someone likes me and tells me they do, but I don't like them, I'll probably avoid them and try not to have any contact with them!"

Lu Mingxi didn't like the other person. Even though she knew he was trying to get close to her, she could still get along with him without any pressure, which Lu Yuanqing couldn't understand at all.

After all, he couldn't do it himself!

Lu Mingxi thought he was going to ask something else! But it was just this?

Well, to put it bluntly, Lu Mingxi found the question a bit boring and had no objections.

However, who could blame her when the person who asked that question was her most respected third uncle!

Lu Mingxi sighed; she'd better answer properly!

"So what? If we can't be lovers, we can still be friends!"

Lu Yuanqing stared in disbelief: "Can we still be friends?"

Isn't it a case of never seeing each other again until death?

Who exactly is the time traveler?

Lu Yuanqing was suddenly overcome with a sense of sadness, feeling that he was old and old-fashioned!

If you can't be lovers, can you still be friends?

It's not impossible, it's just impossible for him.

Lu Yuanqing never expected that such advanced ideas were not his, but Lu Mingxi's.

I feel... a bit frustrated?

"Hey, Uncle, what's the big deal? I may not like them, but their families are well-off. Why should I offend them? What if they might help me in some unexpected situation in the future?" Lu Mingxi didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

"Besides, I didn't force them. I have no recollection of them not wanting to be around me."

"They wanted to build a relationship with me, but I maintained a normal attitude towards them. Besides, I'm still young when it comes to relationships, and I don't understand anything right now. What if I change my mind after spending more time with them? Who knows!"

"Even if I don't like them now, they're all from working-class families. What if I meet someone I like and decide to date them? That's still a connection, after all!"

"Third Uncle, I haven't done anything wrong, have I? Don't worry! Your niece has very high standards. I don't look at just anyone. Even if I were to date, I would only choose the best!"
