Chapter 837: The class reunion (1)

Number eight’s palm was warm and strong, like the palm of a living person.

Lu Xin’s hand was intertwined with his, and as he looked at the man’s happy smile, he felt as if he was hallucinating.

It was as if they had grown up together in an orphanage and now, because of their own encounters, they had gone their separate ways.

On a certain business trip, he thought of his old friend who was still living in this city, and came back with deep longing. He hugged the person who had accompanied him at his loneliest and weakest age, expressing his long-awaited emotions …

.. If only the orphanage had not bid them farewell in such a tragic way.

..

“Yeah, long time no see.”

Lu Xin was taken aback for a moment before he recovered and smiled back at the man, “”Number eight, you’ve become an adult.”

“I have a name now. I’m Xu Jing,”

Number eight smiled at Lu Xin and said, “”Just like how you have a name now, Lu Xin.”

let’s just call each other by name. The memories of us being called by code names in the past weren’t very good!

“..”

Hearing number eight mention “memories,” teacher young Lu, who was next to him, couldn’t help but feel nervous.

However, number eight did not seem to have any special meaning. He just mentioned it casually and complained to teacher Xiaolu, ” these children don’t have a good foundation. I’ve been doing some basic tests on them in Chinese, mathematics, physics, philosophy, and so on. I found that except for their Chinese, they are a mess in everything else. What kind of teacher taught them …

Teacher Lu was stunned for a moment and looked a little guilty.

Number eight seemed to have realized something. He slapped his forehead and said to teacher Xiaolu, “”I forgot that your results back then weren’t that good.”

“Teacher Lu is already doing a great job,” Lu Xin said with a frown.

He naturally knew that these children were all taught by teacher Lu, and he also knew that teacher Lu’s education level was not high.

He was probably not as good as her. After all. she had been to high school …

But then again, teacher Lu’s contribution to the orphanage was not in this …

Hearing his explanation, number eight frowned and looked at Lu Xin, “”Your exam results back then were terrible too, right?”

“..”

Lu Xin was at a loss for words.

It wasn’t right to say that her exam results were terrible back then …

He basically handed in blank papers all the time.

No one would dare to take his homework anyway.

However, looking at number eight’s arrogant look, he still wanted to say sarcastically, “”You’re the best …”

The words were at the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them back.

This was because he remembered that student number eight was indeed the top student in the class and always got full marks.

Moreover, he was very obedient and always reported to the teacher about other students fighting, stealing, and puppy love.

Because of this, he had been beaten up by others …

“You came back this time for …”

Lu Xin immediately changed the topic and cast a suspicious look at number eight.

“I’m on a business trip, so I came to see you guys.”

Xu Jing answered naturally. He smiled at Lu Xin.”Lu hasn’t told you yet?”

Lu Xin furrowed his brows.

Number eight’s gaze was very honest. He didn’t seem to be lying or hiding anything.

Could it be that he was really overthinking it?

..

“Aiya, when does lunch start?”

Compared to teacher Lu’s anxiety and Lu Xin’s confusion, Xu Jing was much more relaxed.

After chatting for a while, he looked at the children in the courtyard who were finally free and playing happily. He smiled and said, ” I’m hungry too. I’ll eat early. After I’m done, I’ll be in a hurry and give them another half an hour of mathematics.

“This …”

At the mention of this question, teacher Lu hesitated and pushed her wheelchair out.”I’ll go to the kitchen to take a look …”

“..”

“No need …”

Seeing number eight acting as if he had returned to his own home while teacher Lu looked nervous, Lu Xin suddenly interrupted him. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

“What?”

No. 8, teacher Lu and the old security guard all turned to look at him.

One of them had doubt in his eyes, one had worry in his eyes, and the last one was slightly nervous.

Lu Xin met their gazes and a smile appeared on his face. “It’s not easy for you to come back. How can you eat in the cafeteria?”

“Let’s go out and eat.”

“..”

Since No. 8 had returned to Qing gang as an old friend, Lu Xin decided to treat him as an old friend no matter how suspicious he was. With this in mind, Lu Xin’s attitude was natural.

As the host, shouldn’t he treat his former friends to a good meal at a restaurant?

“In that case …”

Number eight hesitated for a moment and suddenly turned to teacher Xiaolu, “”Do you want to go together?”

Teacher Xiaolu lowered her head slightly, then gritted her teeth and said, “”Alright, I’ll go with you.”

Lu Xin didn’t say anything else after Lu agreed.

In her heart, perhaps she also hoped that number eight really came back to visit like an old classmate.

If that was the case, then as classmates from the orphanage, it was reasonable for the three of them to go out for a meal.

It was really strange.

If he knew where number eight was, he would definitely look for him.

However, number eight had taken the initiative to come to his place, so he could not help but worry …

..

..

No. 8 grabbed his black suitcase and left the elementary school with Lu Xin and Lu.

Lu Xin and No. 8 were pushing teacher Lu, who was in a wheelchair, down the empty street.

The surrounding shops were all closed, and no one could be seen.

It was as if the three of them were the only ones left in the city. They walked forward silently.

“I didn’t expect you to live in such a big house now, and in a villa area at that.”

After walking for a while, number eight smiled and said, ” but there are also many problems. For example, it’s too remote and there isn’t even a restaurant.

Miss Lu bit her lip and turned to look at Lu Xin.

There were usually restaurants, but now that the surrounding streets were cleared, it seemed remote.

Lu Xin didn’t say much. He adjusted his glasses and said softly, “”You can open the restaurant.”

Han Bing’s voice came from the built-in headset on the left side of glasses leg, “”Turn left at the intersection ahead.”

Lu Xin nodded and silently pushed the wheelchair to the intersection ahead with number eight.

After turning around, he found a small shop. It was a clean and ordinary shop.

There was a menu at the counter, no different from an ordinary small restaurant.

It was just that the waitress was a tall woman with short hair, a capable and sharp temperament, and a brand new apron …

.. Lu Xin did not even know that Chen Jing had this part-time job.

..

“What do you want to eat?”

The chef stuck his head out from inside. The lizard was wearing a tall chef’s hat, which made it look very professional.

If he wasn’t wearing a large pair of sunglasses, he would look even more professional.

“Just stir-fry. few dishes …”

Lu Xin smiled at the lizard. He had something on his mind to begin with, so he was not in the mood to order, allowing the lizard to do as it pleased.

“Alright …”

The lizard smiled and gestured an “OK” before it retracted its head. Soon, the clanking of pots and pans could be heard in the kitchen.

Chen Jing also brought them bowls, chopsticks, cups, and plates, and even a pot of tea.

It was a gift.

No. 8 seemed to be very emotional as he looked at this small shop. His face was full of smiles and praise.

Then, his gaze fell on Lu Xin’s face and he smiled. “After coming back this time, I really feel that a lot of things are different.”

this is probably the feeling of returning after leaving home for many years. Many things are familiar, but when you look closely, it’s not like it was before. It’s like the former beggar became the Emperor, the former Emperor became a servant, the former monster …

His eyes fell on Lu Xin’s face, but he did not continue.

“Yes, it has changed.”

Teacher Xiaolu took over the conversation and said,”But many things have changed for the better.”

Number eight glanced at her and smiled.

Lizard, this chef, was actually quite good. At least, he served the dishes quite quickly.

After a while, a few dishes were personally served by Chen Jing.

There was a plate of lobster mapo tofu, a plate of Eastern Star spotted stallion fat sausage, a plate of broccoli fried lamb, and a plate of egg mixed with salmon.

He even made a bowl of seaweed egg with lamb soup and a bowl of stinky tofu stewed noodles as the main course …

Lu Xin’s brows furrowed as he looked at the table of food.

How much would it cost to have lobsters and Eastern Star sparkfish …

Number eight, on the other hand, had a good appetite. He did not stand on ceremony with Lu Xin and Lu. After the food was served, he took a small bowl and ate it in big mouthfuls. Although he did not look disheveled, he did have a big appetite. He ate more than half of the food like a tornado.

He even ordered a bottle of beer and drank it with Lu Xin. “I’ve been on business trips all year round. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a good meal.”

Lu Xin and Lu didn’t eat much. They watched number eight eat with their own thoughts.

After number eight had finished eating, Lu Xin looked at him thoughtfully and said, “”What’s your job now?”

“Actually, I know that you’re all very worried right now.”

Number eight didn’t answer directly. Instead, he lit a cigarette and took a light puff.”After all, a lot of things happened in our orphanage. I’m still alive and can come back, which may not seem normal to you.”

“Also …”

He slowed down his voice and laughed, ” you’re also worried that I’ve come back this time for some other purpose, right? ”

He glanced at Lu and Lu and said slowly, “”I did come back this time for something.”

“..”

Teacher Lu was a little nervous and Lu Xin looked up at him.

Even the staff in the kitchen and behind the counter who were reading the newspaper seemed to be listening.

Number eight looked at them and suddenly laughed, “”But what I’m going to do has nothing to do with you.”

As he spoke, he took out a pocket watch from his arms, glanced at it, and said, “”It’s almost time.”

“Tonight, I have a business deal near qingang city.”

“Are you interested in coming with me to take a look?” he turned to Lu Xin and asked.
