Chapter 77 -77: Sitting at Home, a Green Hat Descends from the Sky?

What is going on?!

How could a girl possibly have so much strength??

Fu Chen felt Lu Sheng’s grip tightening on his fist, and the strength seemed to be increasing bit by bit.

He even had the feeling that his hand bones were about to be crushed by the young girl.

Fu Chen bit down hard on his teeth to keep himself from crying out in front of so many people—it would be so embarrassing for a man to be overpowered by a girl like this.

Seeing that Fu Chen’s shoulders were trembling with the effort to hold back, Lu Sheng suddenly let go of his hand.

And at the moment she released her grip, Fu Chen felt as though he had narrowly escaped death.

Fu Chen couldn’t help but look at Lu Sheng in panic—just who is this Lu Sheng??

How could a normal girl react so quickly and have such great strength?!

“Shengsheng, are you okay?” Seeing Lu Sheng let go, Lu Youye immediately took her hand with concern, “Let brother take a look, did you dirty your hand?”

???

Fu Chen felt he was about to be infuriated to death.

He was the one whose hand was nearly crushed! Lu Youye went over to check Lu Sheng’s hand and asked if she was okay?!

Seeing that the two had stopped fighting, the head teacher finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped forward to say: “Well, students should get along peacefully; fighting is not allowed.”

Then he said sternly, “Lu Youye and Fu Chen, both of you, go back and write a reflection to submit to me. The rest of the students disperse and hurry back to prepare for classes.”

With the head teacher saying so, everyone dispersed. Lu Youye even rolled his eyes at Fu Chen before reluctantly heading back to class E.

When school was about to let out in the evening, Lu Sheng received another text message.

[Dear Sheng, this is Osborne.]

[I’ve just arrived in Jiang City and settled into the hotel. Would I have the honor of having dinner with you tonight?]

Osborne is already in Jiang City?

Wasn’t he supposed to come next week?

Before Lu Sheng could express her doubt, Osborne had already explained.

[I asked my assistant to change my flight to the earliest one so I could see you sooner, isn’t it a pleasant surprise?]

[I’ve already reserved a restaurant, looking forward to meeting you, Sheng.]

Indeed, it was a pleasant surprise.

Having corresponded only through emails for nearly a year, in some sense, this meeting between Lu Sheng and Osborne could be considered as meeting an online friend face to face.

Lu Sheng told Lu Youye she wanted to go out to clear her mind, and after school, she took a taxi alone to the restaurant address Osborne had sent.

It was a high-end and famous private restaurant in Jiang City; it was evident that Osborne had done his research on Jiang City’s cuisine.

Following the waiter to the private room, Lu Sheng saw Osborne in person for the first time.

Nearly sixty years of age, although there were signs of the years on his face, he looked like he was only in his forties or fifties.

With a pair of azure blue eyes and dark brown hair, he was dressed in a black trench coat of substantial quality, looking every bit the quintessential, elegant English gentleman.

And when Osborne saw Lu Sheng, there was unmistakable amazement in his eyes.

“My goodness,” Osborne stood up to greet her and couldn’t help but bow to kiss the back of Lu Sheng’s hand, genuinely complimenting her, “Sheng, you are even more beautiful than in the videos.”

“Thank you,” Lu Sheng smiled, “You also look more handsome than the Osborne I’ve always seen on TV.”

Given the age difference, Lu Sheng and Osborne could be considered to have a friendship that transcended generations, with a full forty-two years between them.

But Osborne had a young heart, and he had always chatted with Lu Sheng as friends in their previous emails, so now the conversation between the two was quite relaxed.

“Before getting on the plane to see you, I had someone dye my gray hair brown,” Osborne said playfully with a wink, “Doesn’t it make me look much younger?”

“No,” Lu Sheng smiled with a twinkle in her eyes, “You are young as is; you don’t need hair color to enhance that.”

“You really have a way with words, Sheng,” Osborne said, his face breaking into a delighted smile, and sat down with Lu Sheng.

When they talked about the piano competition, Lu Sheng said she had received an invitation from the organizers in the morning, but she didn’t expect the person who gave her phone number to the organizers was Osborne.

“Sheng, no one is more qualified to participate in this competition than you. You are the most talented person I’ve seen at your age, a true musical prodigy.”

“Of course, although we are friends, I will still judge fairly based on the live performance as a judge.”

“So Sheng, I hope you won’t disappoint me four days from now. You know, I’ve been looking forward to your live performance for a long time.”

“I also hope to hear your new music; I’ve listened to every piece you sent me countless times.”

Lu Sheng glanced at the competition rules today.

Most people who play the piano can’t compose; they just play from sheet music.

But the ones invited to this competition are piano players recognized by the organizers for their high level of skill, and performing their original compositions is a basic requirement.

“Okay, I’ll write a new piece,” Lu Sheng promised.

“Really? Wonderful!” Osborne’s excitement was visibly evident, and he looked at Lu Sheng’s right hand with some concern, “But Sheng, is your hand injured?”

Lu Sheng smiled lightly: “It’s just a minor issue; it won’t affect the competition.”

After dinner, out of courtesy, Lu Sheng accompanied Osborne to take a taxi, intending to send him back to his hotel first.

But after arriving at the hotel, there was some problem with Osborne’s registration information.

As a foreigner, he naturally did not understand as well as Lu Sheng, so she stayed with him at the front desk for nearly ten minutes and sent him up the elevator.

However, what Lu Sheng didn’t know was that during those ten minutes, Tang Yiyi, who had just left the room with Meng Bin, came to the Great Hall and immediately recognized Lu Sheng’s figure.

“…Am I seeing things? Look at the girl at the front desk, isn’t that Lu Sheng?” Tang Yiyi immediately said to Meng Bin.

“…Lu Sheng?” Meng Bin was stunned for a moment, took a careful look, and couldn’t help but widen his eyes, “Gosh, it really is her!”

Tang Yiyi couldn’t help but take a breath: “Oh my god, the man with her, looking at his profile and stature, he must be in his forties or fifties, right?”

“A high school student actually booking a room with such an old man?? I really didn’t see that coming.”

Meng Bin was extremely surprised.

He thought Lu Sheng looked quite aloof and cold. Yesterday when he showed Fu Chen the forum video, he even said that Lu Sheng was beautiful and smart; if she and Fu Chen got together, it wouldn’t be a loss for him.

But he didn’t expect that Lu Sheng, who appeared so dignified and pure on the surface, would book a hotel room to sleep with an old man in private.

“This man looks rich by his outfit,” Tang Yiyi said with disdain, “Willing to sell her body to such old men for money… Surely she’s a country girl, both poor and unworldly.”

“Bringing a bastard daughter from the countryside to Jiang City was already embarrassing enough for the Lu Family. If this gets out, I guess the Lu Family won’t be able to lift their heads in their circles anymore.”

“Also, isn’t Lu Sheng nominally still Fu Chen’s fiancée?”

“This is like Fu Chen sitting at home, but the green hat comes from the sky.”

While Tang Yiyi was clicking her tongue, she raised her phone and quickly took a sneaky photo of Lu Sheng and Osborne.
