Chapter 699: Chapter 699: Eyes that One Would Never Forget Even as a Ghost Chapter 699: Chapter 699: Eyes that One Would Never Forget Even as a Ghost Ms. Lin felt much relieved as she thought of this.
She reached out and touched her son’s head, seeing him contentedly sucking on a candy, and she smiled too.
As the family of three passed by the long queue and left, they were unaware that Shu Feng, who was in the middle of the line, suddenly looked up, furrowing his brow as he stared at their retreating figures.
He thought he had heard “Lady Lu” and also “deceive”.
Speaking of Lady Lu, they only knew one Shu Yu.
Could they be talking about Lu Shuyu? Had she deceived these few people?
Unfortunately, they had spoken too softly earlier, and he hadn’t caught anything else.
Nevertheless, Shu Feng tugged at the first Madam’s sleeve beside him and asked softly, “Mother, do you know who those three are? Do they have anything to do with Lu Shuyu?”
The first Madam, cold and somewhat shivering, wasn’t paying full attention.
However, when she heard the name Lu Shuyu, she suddenly jolted back to awareness.
Not just her, other members of the Shu family also turned their gaze upon the Xu Family upon hearing this.
The eldest daughter, with her sharp eyes, quickly recognized them, “I know, that wretched girl, when she first arrived, was assigned to work in the same group as that family. But she only worked a few days before she switched to hunting.”
Shu Feng narrowed his eyes, so the Lady Lu mentioned by that family was indeed Shu Yu.
But he did not quite understand what they meant by deception; if they had a grievance with Lu Shuyu, it was possible the parties could still cooperate.
Thinking this, Shu Feng memorized the appearance of their family.
The queue slowly moved forward, and the Shu family, previously disinclined to talk, became animated again as Shu Feng mentioned Shu Yu, also leading them to think of Madam Hou.
“I just looked around and couldn’t find Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady.”
Miss Four glanced at the Second Master and pursed her lips.
The Second Master indeed snorted, “No hurry, she has to work today anyway, we’ll run into her sooner or later.”
“Not sure how carefree their days have been these past two days that they can’t bear to come back.”
“The Lu family must serve better food; nothing else needs to be said, they definitely eat and drink well.”
“Will they still come back to live these rough days with us?”
The Second Master, irritated, said, “Enough, why spout these sour words now? Remember what we discussed last night, when they return, we’ll first win them over.”
Their voices were very low, but with so many people in the queue, a few still overheard.
Feeling a few gazes shifting towards them, Shu Feng frowned and said softly, “Enough, let’s not talk now. Let’s line up to get the tools first, we can discuss this matter later.”
The Shu family immediately fell silent, but this pause made them feel the cold they had previously ignored creeping back in, chilling them to the bone.
No, when Madam Hou and the others return, they must at the very least get some thicker clothes from the Lu family; the weather is way too cold in the early morning and evening.
Today, the registration process was moving swiftly, and Wang Changdong was very satisfied.
He always said, Lady Lu was a capable person, look how efficient this is.
Shu Yu couldn’t help but feel it; she had eaten a piece of cake before leaving the house, and now she was hungry, wanting to finish early and eat.
Just as she thought this, the next person walked up to the desk as a familiar voice rang out again.
Shu Yu’s pen stopped, and she slowly looked up.
Shu Feng, too, was surprised by the change of the person registering. Then, he looked directly into a pair of eyes he could never forget even in death.
