In the morning, when Lu Zizhong went downstairs, Lu's parents and Lu Zihan were having breakfast.

When he saw Lu Zizhong, Lu's father suddenly became angry for no reason.

"Lu Zizhong! Yesterday the servant told me that your quilt was missing? Where did you throw it?"

Lu Zizhong turned his head and looked around, and sure enough, he saw the servant from last night in the crowd.

Seeing him looking at him, the servant rolled his eyes and curled his lips at Lu Zizhong smugly.

Brother Ji Feng said something to him before he left yesterday. Lu Zizhong thought about it all night and almost engraved the words into his mind.

Brother Ji Feng said that respect is mutual and love is also mutual.

After thinking it through last night, Lu Zizhong no longer felt that sad. He sat at the edge of the dining table and ate breakfast quietly, no longer harboring any illusions about his parents' love.

However, the food at home doesn’t seem as delicious as the food in the administration’s cafeteria.

Lu Zizhong thought about it and roughly understood the reason.

He lowered his head and curled the corners of his mouth slightly. It must be because there were people with special abilities related to cooking in the cafeteria of the Administration?

Seeing that he not only did not reflect on himself, but was smiling smugly, Father Lu became even angrier.

He stood up, threw Lu Zizhong's breakfast, and scolded him for being uncultured and not knowing how to respect his elders.

Lu Zizhong's behavior was completely different from usual.

He did not stick his neck out to contradict Father Lu, nor did he remain silent. He just raised his eyes and looked at Father Lu calmly.

It seemed that all of Lu's father's actions were just inexplicable behaviors of a stranger in his eyes.

It took Mr. Lu a long time to find his voice again: "Lu Zizhong, what's with that expression on your face? Are you dissatisfied?"

Lu Zizhong shook his head and said, "Dad, I will get the quilt back."

Father Lu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Lu Zizhong to react like this.

But he is indeed more sensible than usual.

Father Lu rarely said anything more.

Lu Zihan frowned slightly and looked up at Lu Zizhong.

He took a sip of coffee leisurely and suddenly asked, "Brother, you didn't come home for dinner the whole day yesterday. Where did you go?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu's father immediately frowned and looked at him coldly, and even Lu's mother's expression became subtle.

"Lu Zizhong, where did you go yesterday?"

Lu Zizhong looked up in surprise, looking at his parents with grim faces and his brother who was calmly drinking coffee, not understanding how things had turned out like this.

He bit his lip. Even though he knew he would be scolded today, he was still very determined not to reveal the existence of the Special Events Management Bureau.

"I was with my brothers and sisters yesterday."

"What brothers and sisters? Where in this neighborhood are there children of the right age to play with you? And little girls? How old are you, Lu Zizhong? Why do you like to play with little girls? Is it because there are not enough toys in the toy room at home for you to play with?"

Lu Zizhong wanted to refute that, that was his brother's toy room, and it was filled with his brother's toys since he was a child, none of which belonged to him. Moreover, his brother said he had mysophobia and never allowed him to play in it.

But Lu Zizhong held back.

He silently cheered himself up in his heart.

Lu Zizhong, it will be fine by the end of the month. Just go to the dungeon and you will be fine. Just hold on a little longer.

"You haven't been home for a day. Where did you eat?"

"My brother and sister treated me to the meal."

Father Lu was furious. He raised his hand and poked Lu Zizhong's head fiercely. "Don't you have food to eat at home? You want to go out and rely on others' charity? Lu Zizhong, how could I have such a useless child like you? You have no shame, but our Lu family still has some dignity!"

Lu Zizhong remained silent.

He wanted to treat his brothers and sisters to a meal, but he had no money. His parents never gave him pocket money, so even if he wanted to treat them, he couldn't afford it.

Father Lu called housekeeper Lu and asked him to get 10,000 yuan in cash. After receiving it, he threw the pile of money at Lu Zizhong.

Pink bills fell down in a gust of rain.

"Is ten thousand enough? Go and pay it back! Pay back the money for yesterday's meal!"

Lu Zizhong did not refuse, because when Sister Zhong Yao received the bank's text message yesterday, she seemed very happy.

He squatted down slowly and picked up the money scattered on the ground one by one.

This embarrassing appearance made Father Lu furious: "You'd better stop going out and embarrassing our Lu family."

He kicked the chair hard, went out to work without finishing his meal.

Lu Zihan finished his coffee as if nothing had happened and smiled at Lu's mother: "Mom, I'm going to Jiang's house to find Tongtong."

Mother Lu smiled gently: "Go ahead, Tongtong, if you have time, take Tongtong out to play, and your parents will reimburse you when you come back."

Lu Zihan lowered his eyes and glanced at Lu Zizhong who was squatting on the ground picking up money, and smiled, "Mom, no need, I have money in my hand."

Mother Lu nodded and sent Lu Zihan out.

When he came back, Lu Zizhong had already picked up all the money on the ground and piled it up neatly. Because there was no place to put it, he took off his coat and put the wallet inside it.

Seeing Lu Zizhong's petty and embarrassing look, Lu's mother felt very depressed, she turned away and went upstairs.

After his parents and brother left, Lu Zizhong breathed a sigh of relief. He held his coat and walked out happily.

The owner is no longer on the first floor.

The servants complained: "Young Master is really embarrassing."

"That's right. He actually squatted there to pick up the money that fell on the ground. He doesn't have the manners of a wealthy family at all."

"He is totally incomparable to the eldest young master. He doesn't look like a young master from a wealthy family. It's no wonder that Mr. and Mrs. don't like him."

……

When Lu Zihan arrived at the Jiang family, Jiang Yuetong personally welcomed him in.

"Brother Zi Han, I just learned a new piano piece yesterday. Can you practice with me?"

"Okay." Lu Zihan smiled gently.

Lu Zizhong was only seven years old, and was not as fast as Lu Zihan. However, he was anxious to see Zhong Yao, so he trotted all the way here. Not long after Lu Zihan came in, he arrived.

Lu Zizhong politely greeted the servants in the yard, "Uncle, I'm here to see Sister Zhong Yao."

"Oh, the Second Miss has given instructions. It's Young Master Lu, right? Please come in."

After receiving the news, Butler Jiang went outside to personally welcome Lu Zizhong in.

Lu Zizhong held his coat and looked a little reserved.

Butler Jiang said with a smile: "I didn't expect that our second young lady would make friends as soon as she came back."

Lu Zizhong smiled and said, "Sister Zhong Yao is a very nice person. I like her very much."

"Really?" Butler Jiang was very happy to hear others praising Zhong Yao. He smiled and led Lu Zi back into the house.

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Zizhong couldn't laugh anymore.

He was so carried away that he forgot his brother was there too.

Lu Zihan frowned: "Lu Zizhong, what are you doing here?"

There were a few servants on the first floor, and everyone looked over. Lu Zizhong held his coat and didn't dare to say anything.

Lu Zihan frowned even more tightly. This annoying brother...

He took a step forward, "Lu Zizhong, what are you doing? Go home!"

Zhong Yao came downstairs to pick him up. He leaned at the corner of the stairs, covered his mouth and yawned lazily, the sound was casual and lazy.

"This is my guest."
