Chapter 10: Tang Ning takes Lu Yanchen home

“Get in the car.”

The driver took the initiative to open the door for Lu Yanchen.

Lu Yanchen got into the car somewhat nervously, and Tang Ning followed closely behind him.

Seeing Lu Yanchen’s uneasy expression, Tang Ning said, “Don’t be nervous. My parents are very kind. They just hate Lu Chizhou.”

Lu Yanchen didn’t say anything.

However, the driver couldn’t help but look at Lu Yanchen twice more.

Previously, their eldest daughter had a very unpleasant break-off of the engagement with the Lu family, so why is it that today she has such a good relationship with the illegitimate son of the Lu family?

Soon, the car arrived at the Tang family villa.

As soon as Tang Ning and Lu Yanchen entered the house, the smell of food wafted out along the corridor.

Tang Ning said, “Let’s eat first so we can have enough energy to exercise.”

“No, I…”

“Ningning! Hurry up and change your shoes and eat!”

Tang’s mother’s voice interrupted Lu Yanchen’s long-planned refusal.

When Tang’s mother reached the entrance, she saw Lu Yanchen standing next to Tang Ning.

“Yan Chen?”

Tang’s mother had met Lu Yanchen several times at the Tang family before, so she had an impression of Lu Yanchen.

Tang’s father also came down from the second floor. Seeing Lu Yanchen coming back with his daughter, he couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Doesn’t their daughter hate the Lu family?

How come she is so close to Lu Yanchen?

“Mom and Dad, Lu Yanchen is here to help me lose weight. Please prepare an extra set of bowls and chopsticks every night.”

Tang Ning spoke in a casual and relaxed manner, leaving Lu Yanchen no room to refuse.

In fact, she knew that the school swimming pool would close at a certain time. Lincheng High School finished school at 6:30 every evening, which was exactly dinner time.

If Lu Yanchen accompanied her to lose weight after school every day, it would probably be nine o’clock when they returned to the Lu family. She didn’t believe that Lu’s mother would leave any food for Lu Yanchen.

Tang’s father and mother looked at each other.

Although they said they didn’t like the Lu family, the two of them still politely asked Lu Yanchen to change his shoes and come in to eat.

In the living room, there were six dishes and one soup on the table, three meat and three vegetable dishes.

In order to lose weight, Tang Ning could only eat some shrimps and broccoli.

Tang’s mother looked at Lu Yanchen’s frail appearance and gave him more rice out of pity.

“Eat slowly, there’s more.”

Tang’s mother sat opposite Lu Yanchen.

“Thank you Aunt Tang…”

Lu Yanchen is a taciturn person and never likes to talk. Tang’s father and mother also saw this in the past.

When Lu Chizhou and Tang Ning played together when they were young, Lu Yanchen would stay far away and didn’t dare to approach them to say a word. Later, he gradually developed a withdrawn personality.

I didn’t expect that after so many years, Lu Yanchen has grown to over 1.8 meters. Although he is a little thin, he is much taller than his peers.

Lu Yanchen ate the meal cleanly and then went to wash the dishes silently.

Seeing this, Tang Ning immediately put down her chopsticks and said to Aunt Liu in the kitchen, “Aunt Liu! Wash the dishes!”

As expected, Aunt Liu stepped forward and took the bowl and chopsticks from Lu Yanchen’s hand, saying, “Second Young Master Lu, just leave it to me.”

Lu Yanchen opened his mouth, but didn’t have time to say what he wanted to say.

Tang Ning took Lu Yanchen to the swimming pool in the backyard.

Tang’s father and mother were confused because this was the first time their daughter brought a male classmate to visit their home.

Is it really just for losing weight?

The Tang family is a well-known wealthy business family in the entire Lincheng, but they have always kept a low profile to the outside world. This house has complete facilities.

Looking at the pool which was as big as the school swimming pool, Lu Yanchen couldn’t help but be stunned.

Because even the Lu family doesn’t have such a big swimming pool.

At this time, Tang Ning changed into her swimsuit and walked out. The school’s swimsuits were all matching and very conservative.

“This is for you.”

Lu Yanchen handed Tang Ning a weight loss plan. During the break, he had already made a detailed plan based on Tang Ning’s physique. As long as she followed the plan, it would not be a problem for Tang Ning to lose 20 pounds in a month.

In addition, she is now in the second year of high school and has a heavy workload. She also has to prepare for the physical examination, so the school arranges a lot of exercise. If Tang Ning can stick to it, she may be able to lose weight back to 130 pounds before the end of the semester.

“You finished this so quickly?”

Tang Ning was a little surprised. She looked at the very detailed weight loss form in her hand. It even listed what she should eat every day, how much water she should drink, and how much exercise she should do.

Lu Yanchen said, “You can’t lose weight by dieting. You ate too little tonight. Eat more cucumbers and cherry tomatoes. You can eat winter melon and corn, but you can’t eat too much every day. Remember to go to bed hungry every night.”

Tang Ning nodded, not quite understanding.

Seeing Tang Ning not quite understanding, Lu Yanchen was silent for a moment, “I supervise you every day, but you don’t need to understand it too well.”

Hearing this, Tang Ning nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

In the corner, Tang’s father and mother leaned their heads over to watch Lu Yanchen supervising Tang Ning’s swimming on the shore. The two of them had almost no communication throughout the whole process.

Tang’s mother asked in confusion, “What’s going on? Are you really here to exercise?”

“Hasn’t Ningning been exercising like this these days? Why does she still need the Lu family’s boy to accompany her?”

Father Tang was confused.

“Could it be that our Ningning has fallen in love with someone else and no longer likes Lu Chizhou, but has fallen in love with Lu Yanchen?”

“The Lu family’s boys are so attractive, they only know how to seduce our Ningning!”

The couple sang in unison, completely unaware that their actions had attracted the attention of Tang Ning and Lu Yanchen.

Tang Ning poked her head out of the swimming pool and asked, “Dad, Mom, what are you doing?”

Hearing their baby daughter’s voice, Tang’s father and mother hurriedly came out from the corner and said, “Your mother and I have prepared some fruits for you. You can eat them when you get tired from swimming.”

“Yes, yes. If you think swimming alone is too boring, then go to the gym on the second floor. There are a lot of equipment there.”

Tang’s father and mother smiled awkwardly.

Tang Ning could tell at a glance that her parents were overthinking. Lu Yanchen was thoughtful and had a vague sense of misunderstanding between Tang’s parents. He turned his head away, his ears reddening.

Tang Ning climbed out of the swimming pool and took the fruit from her mother’s hand. She said, “Thank you, Mom. You guys should go back now! Don’t look anymore!”

Tang’s mother said, “Silly child, this is helping you!”

“I don’t need your help!”

Tang Ning pushed Mr. and Mrs. Tang away, then she looked at Lu Yanchen and said, “Let’s… continue.”

Tang Ning pretended to be calm and continued swimming, but he was actually a little ashamed.

Originally, she just thought that in the future Lu Yanchen would resume his identity as the eldest son of the Gu family, a wealthy family in Haicheng. On the one hand, she wanted to have a good relationship with Lu Yanchen, and on the other hand, because Lu Yanchen saved her, she couldn’t bear to see Lu Yanchen continue to be tortured by the mother and son of the Lu family.

How did it suddenly appear in the eyes of her parents that she was interested in Lu Yanchen?

What does Lu Yanchen think about this?

Sure enough, when Tang Ning poked her head out of the pool, she met Lu Yanchen’s deep eyes.
