After Su Ran’s departure, Lu Shao’s sight lingered in the direction that she left in for a long while before he finally frowned and looked away .
Everybody knew that the authority figure of the Lu’s was a cold person and would not pay too much attention to anything or anyone, let alone getting attached to any of them .
He lived like an authoritative machine .
Or, better yet, a machine that existed only for their family assets and businesses . \nLu Shao was well aware of that himself . It wasn’t easy to be the authoritative figure . He seemed to become a more and more distant person being in the authoritative role for so long .
Even though Instructor Su was a very nice person and easy to get along with and it was entirely normal for him to be friendly to her as the person who provided him with piano music, that friendliness seemed to have crossed some sort of a line .
It had exceeded the friendliness that Lu Shao normally has for others . If it was impossible and inappropriate, then he should nip that in the bud .
That was what he had told himself anyway .
Looking away from that direction, Lu Shao finally looked back at the front door of the school .
The end-of-day bell had already rung and students started to walk out in groups of twos and threes . \nLu Xun spotted Su Han amidst the students shortly .
Next to him was Liu YangYang .
“Han-ge, that wasn’t cool at all . Du WenTao had shown you so many hilarious photos and you wouldn’t share any of them with me!” Had it not been someone else using his mother’s WeChat account for some sneaky activities and he happened to see that picture shared by Du WenTao’s mother, he would have missed out on the chance to tease him .
Su Han gave Liu YangYang a look that suggested that he was looking at a brain-dead person . He only saw a glance of it on someone else’s cellphone, how was he going to share that? No, wait . He wasn’t even that kind of a person to begin with .
“Well, it’s true . That picture was hilarious . Did you see that look on Du WenTao’s face? HAHAHA . He looked like a pig that was about to be slaughtered! That outfit? I won’t even put it on if you offer me 100 yuan!” Liu YangYang had no qualms about making fun of Du WenTao . \nHe felt relieved at the same time that his parents were still in City T and wouldn’t be able to make it back . Given their peculiar taste in clothing, there was a possibility that…
“That being said, was what Du WenTao said true? That their family will team up with us?”
“It seemed that his mother had mentioned that to my… my mom,” said Su Han while giving Liu YangYang another cold stare at the same time .
“Us?” Su Han repeated the word that Liu YangYang had used earlier .
“Was I wrong?”
“It’s my family, what does that have to do with you?” said Su Han while looking at Liu YangYang nonchalantly .
“Noooo! Han-ge, you can’t do that to me! You’ve told me that you will take me with you! I’ve already signed up to it . You can’t kick me out right now!” Liu YangYang wailed with a look of how-could-you-have-hurt-me-so-and-then-just-brush-it-off-with-a-smile pain .
“When have I said that?”
“Last week! You said it in the group chat . I said take me with you and you said yes! I can show you the record!”
“That won’t be necessary . ” Su Han remembered now . That must have been said by that woman from his account a week ago!
Frowning, Su Han gave Liu YangYang a resentful look but his attitude showed that he had already consented to it .
What else could he possibly do? Even though he knew that this particular classmate of his was someone who would solo during a 5V5 and had no idea that he was soloing, his mom had already fallen for it . Did he have any other options besides accepting the fact?
