Reincarnation: Multi-skilled Goddess Is So Beautiful!

Both their gazes were locked on each other.

Sometime later, Rick suddenly leaned back and asked puzzlingly, “Lu, where is my sister lacking? In the past, you could say that she was too young and was unsuitable, but she has already grown up now. Because of your refusal back then, she nearly died, and now that she has finally walked out of those dark times, you should at least give her a chance on the account of how infatuated she is with you.”

Lu Jingye looked at Rick who spoke as if everything were a matter of fact and he replied with a deep voice, “I don’t think that I’m a man who is like scum and so on that account I am unable to be with someone I don’t like.”

“You–” Rick suddenly felt a strong rush of anger and he shouted, “How would you know you don’t like her if you’ve never even tried?!”

“I am human and I have feelings. I would know whether I like someone or not.”

Lu Jingye looked at Rick who pestered him endlessly and rudely ordered him to leave. “Mr. Rick, I still have work to do. If you’re here to discuss non-work related issues, please go out. You can give up time and money for a woman you care about, but now, I have to work hard to make money for the woman I love.”

Rick’s expression instantly turned livid at his words. He clenched his fists and tried his best not to send a punch flying over. He gnashed his teeth and sneered. “Lu Jingye, you better not regret it.”

He stood up with large movements and angrily walked out of the office.

Lu Jingye looked at his office door which was tightly slammed shut and he could no longer suppress his killing aura.

Rick actually knows that Lu Yunxiao is brain dead. Who was the one who revealed the information?

…

Rick returned to the Lu Family’s main house.

As soon as he went in, he saw Elder Lu.

He was currently playing chess with Aisha.

Aisha’s skills in chess were pretty good and Elder Lu was currently praising her. “It’s rare for young people to have such great skills like you. Not to mention being willing to accompany me for such a long period of time to play chess.”

Aisha smiled and said, “I am fond of many traditional cultures of China and I have specially studied them before. After learning chess, I discovered that it can be used to cultivate myself and stimulate my brain.”

“You’re right.” Elder Lu sighed. “Most young people are not knowledgeable about China’s culture. I didn’t expect it to be studied so thoroughly by a foreign young lady. I wonder if it is fortunate or a sad thing.”

“Of course, it’s a fortunate thing.” Rick interrupted their conversation and the both of them looked over in his direction.

Rick headed over with a smile on his face. “Aisha is fond of Ah Lu and always strives to be someone Ah Lu likes. Therefore, she has worked hard to learn the various traditional cultures of China. She will also become one akin to your people in the future and so, it’s a fortunate thing.”

“Brother, don’t talk nonsense.”

Aisha shyly covered her face. With that embarrassed look of hers, even a blind man could see that she fancies Lu Jingye.

Elder Lu was very satisfied with Aisha and said, “Aisha is indeed thoughtful.”

Aisha put down her hand and bit her lips as she revealed a shy smile. “I did this willingly.”

Rick noticed the satisfaction in Elder Lu’s gaze and suddenly said, “Grandfather Lu, I have something to discuss with you in private.”

“Oh? What’s the matter?” Elder Lu’s hand that was holding onto a piece of chess stopped.

Aisha knew that her brother would definitely discuss her and Lu Jingye and so, she stood up and said, “Then you two can chat first. I’ve recently learnt to prepare a type of nutritional soup. I’ll go and prepare it for Grandfather Lu.”

Having said that, she headed outside the door and left.

When Aisha had walked away, Rick specifically mentioned how Aisha had been studying how to prepare nutritional soup these days. Every single word of his would associate her actions to Elder Lu, saying that she had specially learned it for him.

Elder Lu was even more satisfied. If he could have such a clever, sensible, and considerate granddaughter in the future, it was also a good thing for his grandson.

Rick suddenly changed the way he spoke and started hesitating. “Grandfather Lu, I’ve recently overheard something and I wonder if I should tell you about this.”

“Speak your mind.” Elder Lu lifted the cup next to him and was about to take a sip.

Rick looked at his expression and said, “I don’t know if it was done deliberately or not, but they say that Lu Yunxiao is brain dead, he…”

PA!

The teacup crashed onto the ground and broke into pieces, and made Rick suddenly shut up.

He looked at Elder Lu who emitted a sharp aura and felt that his whole surroundings seemed to have been frozen. He found himself unable to breathe properly.

Elder Lu’s imposing aura was surely terrifying.

Sometime later, he struggled to speak. “Grandfather Lu, don’t be angry…”

“Where did you hear that from?” Elder Lu turned around fully and looked at him. That sharp gaze of his caused a layer of sweat to surface on his back.

“I inadvertently heard it.”

Rick clenched his fists and plucked up his courage to say, “In fact, I don’t believe it either. However, it is already very surprising that Lu Yunxiao did not make it back during Grandfather Lu’s birthday. Moreover, when Aisha went to Uncle Lu’s house that day, she heard Auntie Lu saying that she had not seen Lu Yunxiao for quite some time. So…”

Rick could not continue his sentence. Elder Lu’s gaze was too sharp and his expression was too fierce. He felt that if he continued on, Elder Lu would shoot him to death.

Elder Lu said to him, “You can go out, I’d prefer if this matter ends here. My third grandson is perfectly fine now. If I were to hear something like this again, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“Yes, yes, I won’t bring this up again in the future.”

Rick stood up and walked out in large strides.

After he left Elder Lu’s courtyard, he took out his phone and made a call. The corner of his lips curled up and he said, “You can call Mrs. Lu now.”

Elder Lu did not immediately call Lu Jianlin or Lu Yunxiao to ask after Rick left. Instead, he sat down quietly alone.

An entire afternoon passed like that.

On the other side, the Lu Residence.

At 4 p.m in the afternoon, Mrs. Lu suddenly received a call from an unknown number. She originally had no intentions to answer it, but the caller had called several times and she ended up connecting the call.

“I believe Mrs. Lu doesn’t know that Lu Yunxiao is brain dead yet?”

Mrs. Lu angrily shouted the moment she heard that, “Who are you? Are you crazy! My youngest son is perfectly fine!”

She angrily hung up the phone.

However, she thought of how she had had palpitations recently and her heart cramped uncontrollably. What the person said over the phone were like magic chants and constantly resounded in her mind.

Mrs. Lu’s body trembled and she thought of wanting to call her husband and son to inquire further. However, her heart cramped so tightly that she blacked out.

“Madam, Madam, don’t scare me!” The housekeeper’s expression changed due to fright.

Mrs. Lu’s lips trembled for a while before she finally spoke. “Housekeeper, give Jianlin and Jingye a call and ask them to return at once.”

She then completely passed out afterwards.

Lu Jingye and Lu Jianlin immediately rushed over.
