Chapter 97



97 Requesting Her Help

“That’s right. Previously, my results were bad because the teacher didn’t teach me well. With Lin Yin around, my results will definitely improve.” Lu Yan felt that Lin Yin was indeed much better than the tutor her family had hired previously.

“Okay, then you can study at my place after school.” Lu Ming looked at Lin Yin again and said slowly, “If you need anything, you can tell me.”

Lin Yin looked up and met Lu Ming’s eyes. She shook her head and said, “Thank you, Uncle. There’s nothing I need. The environment here is already very good.”

Lu Ming noticed Lin Yin’s distance and frowned slightly. The temperature around him seemed to have dropped a little.

“Little Uncle, can I have the Cullinan in your garage?” Lu Yan said with a smile, “I don’t think you like it very much. It’s useless. Let Uncle Luo use it to pick me up and send me to school.”

Lu Ming looked at Lin Yin and Lu Yan’s completely different reactions. He thought for a moment and said to Lu Yan, “Only when your grade placement improves by ten places.”

Lu Yan nodded happily. With Lin Yin around, she was actually very confident.

The meal was quite enjoyable. Lu Yan looked at the time and said to Lu Ming, “Little Uncle, it’s getting late. Lin Yin and I will go back first. Rest early.”

Lu Ming got up from his chair and walked closer to Lin Yin and Lu Yan. He said to Lu Yan, “Get the driver to send you back. I have something to talk to Miss Lin about.”

When Lu Yan heard Lu Ming’s words, she was a little surprised. She glanced at Lin Yin and muttered worriedly, “I’d better wait for Lin Yin to go back with me. Who knows what you’re going to do…”

“Are you sure you want to stay here?” Lu Ming’s voice was low. Lu Yan was a little afraid. Her little uncle had never allowed others to question him.

“Lu Yan, it’s fine. Go back first. I’ll contact you after I’m done talking to Uncle. I’ll contact you when I get home.” Lin Yin noticed that Lu Yan was in a dilemma and nodded at her to reassure her.

“Alright.” Lu Yan was still a little unwilling. She slowly moved to the door, turned her head, and said loudly to Lu Ming, “Little Uncle, you’re an elder. You have to pay attention to your influence. You can’t bully my friend!”

Before Lu Ming could react, Lu Yan ran away, leaving Lu Ming standing there with a dark expression.

“Actually, Lu Yan still admires you in private.” Lin Yin looked at Lu Yan who ran away and explained to Lu Ming, “She looks rebellious, but she’s actually very cute and attentive.”

Lu Ming pointed at the sofa and gestured for Lin Yin to sit down.

“Miss Lin, I think Lu Yan has a good relationship with you.” Lu Ming poured a cup of tea for Lin Yin and sat opposite her.

“Yes, just call me Lin Yin.” Lin Yin looked at Lu Ming and asked, “Uncle, are you interested in my friendship with Lu Yan by asking me to stay?”

Lu Ming realized that the girl in front of him had a calmness that was rare even in adults. Talking to her was like a game between peers.

“You’re very smart. I hope you can help me.” Lu Ming took a sip of tea and looked at Lin Yin as he said slowly, “Little Yan has always had a knot in her heart. I hope you can help her get over it.”

Lin Yin was a little puzzled. In her eyes, Lu Yan had always been very lively and straightforward. She didn’t seem to have any psychological problems.

Noticing Lin Yin’s expression, Lu Ming took out his phone and opened a photo.

“This is when Little Yan was 16.”

Lin Yin took Lu Ming’s phone. The photo was of a young girl with black hair. She had round cheeks and big almond-shaped eyes. She was wearing a light purple dress and looked cute and ladylike.

“This is Lu Yan?” Lin Yin was a little surprised. The cute girl in the photo was really too different from the rebellious girl with smoky makeup.

“I don’t know why, but Little Yan has changed a lot.” Lu Ming seemed to have remembered something from the past, and his eyes softened. “My Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law both said that Little Yan is in her rebellious stage, but I don’t think so.”

“There must be a reason why no one would suddenly change so much.” Although Lu Ming had been busy with his career, he was still very concerned about Lu Yan.

“I understand.” Lin Yin’s expression became much more solemn. She promised Lu Ming, “I’ll figure out what happened to Lu Yan and try my best to bring her out.”

Lu Ming looked at the young girl in front of him, but he was very willing to trust her.

“If you’re willing to help, you can ask for any remuneration.”

Lin Yin smiled and shook her head. She said to Lu Ming, “Lu Yan is my friend to begin with. I’m willing to help her. I don’t need any remuneration.”
