Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1107: Chapter 1106: Are We That Close? (5th Update)

”People from the Zhu Family?” Zhu Wenjing was indeed a bit surprised. She originally disliked such attempts at conversation, but upon hearing they were from her own family, her aversion dissipated immediately. She replied with a smile, ”My name is Zhu Wenjing!”

She didn’t introduce her background; firstly because she didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble by revealing her identity, and secondly because she wasn’t someone who liked to show off her background.

”I didn’t expect you to also be a Zhu. Maybe five hundred years ago we were family!” Zhu Sheng said with a smile.

In their circle, the term ”miss” was not derogatory, but rather a polite way to address someone.

”Pfft!”

Ye Haochuan laughed. Damn, this guy is hilarious. Family five hundred years ago? You guys are family right now!

Ye Haochuan was filled with doubt. Why didn’t this Zhu Sheng recognize Zhu Wenjing? Zhu Wenjing was the pride of the Zhu Family. Wasn’t she someone whom the whole family adored and everyone knew about?

Actually, Ye Haochuan was mistaken. He didn’t understand the Zhu Family at all. The Zhu Family was divided into several parts: some were in business, some in politics, and others in the military, with various branches.

And Zhu Wenjing, she was the most core cultivator of the Zhu Family, already quite mysterious. Coupled with her extraordinary talents, Zhu Chengzhou protected her fiercely. Even the direct lineage of the Zhu Family only heard of such a talented daughter but never saw her.

Zhu Wenjing glared fiercely at Ye Haochuan, as if to say, ”Don’t reveal my identity, or you’ll be sorry.”

But Zhu Wenjing’s glare looked more like a playful pout between a couple, which embarrassed Zhu Sheng.

Zhu Sheng looked at Ye Haochuan, frowning. Although Ye Haochuan was dressed presentably today, Zhu Sheng’s discerning eye easily noticed Ye Haochuan’s clothes were cheap, essentially street vendor goods.

”Who are you?” Zhu Sheng said in a deep voice, with a tone of dissatisfaction, then added, ”Leave. This seat is mine now.”

Zhu Wenjing was unhappy at the side, dissatisfiedly saying, ”Aren’t you being too overbearing? I’m having dinner with my friend, and you’re trying to drive him away?”

”He’s your friend?” Zhu Sheng asked.

”If not a friend, then what?” Zhu Wenjing rolled her eyes at him.

Watching from the side, Ye Haochuan was speechless at Zhu Wenjing, thinking, ”Could you be any more naive? Didn’t you see this guy is treating me like a romantic rival, setting traps for me?”

”Oh, just an ordinary friend!”

Zhu Sheng emphasized the word ”ordinary” and then smiled, ”Hello, let me introduce myself. I am Zhu Sheng of the Zhu Family, one of the five major families in the Imperial Capital. May I ask your surname?”

Damn, it’s just the Zhu Family among the five major families, do you need to emphasize it again?

Ye Haochuan glanced at Zhu Sheng, whose nose seemed to be pointed up to the sky, his proud demeanor fully exposed, leaving Ye Haochuan speechless.

”Am I that familiar with you?” Ye Haochuan retorted.

”You...”

Zhu Sheng clearly didn’t expect Ye Haochuan to give him no face, and the proud expression on his face froze in an instant, looking rather ridiculous.

He wanted to get angry, but seeing Zhu Wenjing beside him, Zhu Sheng’s expression immediately softened.

He coldly gave Ye Haochuan a sidelong glance, full of malice, then ignored Ye Haochuan and continued chatting with Zhu Wenjing.

Zhu Wenjing was like Little Bai in a big world, knowing nothing and curious about everything. Under Zhu Sheng’s skillful flirting, Zhu Wenjing gradually got ”immersed.”

Ye Haochuan didn’t join the conversation, just watched quietly from the side, feeling no emotional waves, and even wanted to laugh!

”This idiot, does he really think Zhu Wenjing is just a child from an ordinary family? They’re from the Zhu Family. If Zhu Sheng really dared to do anything to Zhu Wenjing, he wouldn’t even know how he died.”

”Jingjing, this is a Jade Buddha I bought for millions of Huaxia currency at an auction last time. As they say, ’men wear Guanyin, women wear Buddha.’ I think this Jade Buddha suits you perfectly.”

After chatting with Zhu Wenjing for a while, Zhu Sheng was overjoyed. He even changed the way he addressed Zhu Wenjing to ”Jingjing,” and their relationship improved significantly.

While saying this, Zhu Sheng intentionally glanced at Ye Haochuan, as if to say, ”Poor guy, can you afford such an expensive gift? Even selling both your kidneys wouldn’t cover the Jade Buddha’s price. I advise you to be wise and stay away from Jingjing.”

Seeing Zhu Sheng’s mocking eyes, Ye Haochuan was speechless. Damn, I’m just watching you play monkey tricks, why drag me into this? What did I do to deserve this?

Zhu Wenjing looked at the Jade Buddha Zhu Sheng handed over. Quite simply, she took the Jade Buddha without much thought.

Although this Jade Buddha was only the size of a baby’s fist, the person who carved it could be said to have reached the level of a master, with clear eyes, nose, and ears and distinct lines on the body.

Moreover, the jade was pure and flawless, a killer for most young girls. Using this to flirt, Zhu Sheng indeed invested heavily.

However, Zhu Wenjing was not very interested, as her grandfather had collected countless similar jade Buddha, antiques, and paintings at home.

Having been exposed to them all year round, Zhu Wenjing had developed some expertise. While this Jade Buddha looked beautiful, it was just beautiful and nothing more. It was fine for play, but not worthy of a grand occasion.

Seeing Zhu Wenjing accept his Jade Buddha, Zhu Sheng was quite certain, immediately smiling, ”Jingjing, look at this nice weather. How about I take you to Pingshan Park for a trip?”

”Don’t want to go!” Zhu Wenjing directly shook her head.

”Why?”

Zhu Sheng froze. He had given the gift, and based on past interactions, the other party should have agreed immediately.

”I managed to drag him out today to accompany me on a shopping trip. How could I go with you to a park? Besides, I just met you, and I’m not familiar with you!” Zhu Wenjing pointed at Ye Haochuan, answering quite seriously.

Haha! Stumped now, right?

Ye Haochuan laughed internally until he nearly passed out. Zhu Wenjing’s serious answer was brilliant. Seeing Zhu Sheng’s face, as if he had swallowed a fly, Ye Haochuan couldn’t have been happier.

Although Ye Haochuan tried hard to hide the mirth in his heart, the subtle expression on his face was still caught by Zhu Sheng. Zhu Sheng immediately became furious, feeling as if he had been played.

”Damn it, are you messing with me?” Zhu Sheng yelled at Zhu Wenjing in shame and anger, his expression gloomy.

Zhu Wenjing was at a loss, not understanding why Zhu Sheng suddenly got angry, and quickly said, ”Hey, how did I mess with you? I just don’t want to go to the park with you. Is it worth getting mad?”

In her innocence, she didn’t realize her words only made things worse, and Zhu Sheng’s face became even more horrible, thinking of himself as a clown.
