Chapter 102: Chapter 101: Maybe We Can Win the Championship
Lu Mian, who had just sat back down in his seat, still had a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Seen by both Panghao and Shouhao, the two of them synchronously hugged their arms and shivered.
“Mianmian, your expression is a bit creepy…”
“Is it?” Lu Mian blinked mysteriously, his nonchalance at its extreme, “I am very gentle, you know.”
The hefty and lean brothers shivered even more.
Lu Mian simply smiled without speaking and took out his smartphone to send a text message to Zero.
Su Jue returned to his own classroom and slowly regained his heartbeat.
Touching his chest, he smiled with satisfaction.
Even the most reserved, under the lure of vast wealth, which girl could resist?
Lu Xinnuan was collecting papers and felt his good mood as she passed by him. She poked his shoulder and sweetly asked, “Su Jue, what’s making you so happy?”
Su Jue paused, his smile receding, “Nothing much, my family is organizing a Go competition this weekend. I’ll invite your parents to come and watch.”
“A Go competition? Will Grandpa Su be there?”
“Yeah, he will definitely be there, he’s the sponsor.”
Lu Xinnuan lowered her eyes, seemingly pondering something, and flipped through a stack of papers in her hands absently.
“Su Jue, can anyone join this Go competition?”
“Not exactly. My grandfather is hosting this exchange to select a group of Go masters. The participants have to go through a selection process to officially compete. To attract more masters, I even gave the twenty million I earned to my grandfather as the championship prize money.”
Lu Xinnuan swallowed hard, clutching the papers tighter. When she looked up, her eyes were filled with admiration and longing, “Then can I…”
Su Jue didn’t let her finish, saying to himself, “I’ll ask your sister to join, and she agreed.”
“Huh?” Lu Xinnuan suddenly laughed, her words swallowed back, “Su Jue, you wouldn’t have invited Lu Mian specially after hearing what I said yesterday… If I’d known, I wouldn’t have told you. I wouldn’t want Mianmian to trouble Grandpa Su.”
“We’ll see when the time comes.” Su Jue didn’t intend to say more, just as his phone vibrated, so he took it out to check the message.
Lu Xinnuan, clutching the papers, forcefully suppressed the disappointment in her heart.
“Don’t worry, I’ll bring mom to the event. My dad is out of town, so he can’t make it.”
Lu Xinnuan answered cheerfully, holding the papers while turning around, and sincerely praised, “My sister might even win the championship, right!”
Su Jue didn’t hear these words, nor the tone that suggested she was looking forward to a good show.
He was just staring at the screen of his phone, lost in a daze.
had been kicked out of the stock investment group.
After zoning out for a full minute, Xie Huiyang walked in through the back door and patted his shoulder, “Su Shao, what are you zoned out for? Better put away your phone!”
“…” Su Jue was wooden.
“If Principal Qi sees that, you can say goodbye to your phone!” Xie Huiyang pushed him back to his seat and kindly continued to remind him.
“You and Lu Xinnuan should be careful too, especially at school. Don’t get too close. Don’t you know Principal Qi is the bane of puppy love? With just one sentence, he can break up a couple! He has broken up several couples already! Tsk, couples in school scatter like rats upon seeing a cat when they see him!”
Su Jue seemed unable to hear any of it, his body stiff and cold all over.
Only one thought occupied his mind.
He had been kicked out.
