In fact, Wen Jiu had a vague hunch before that Lu Jing was the junior student who accompanied her through the shabby curtain.
But she found it incredible because she went to a fairly good public key school, not an aristocratic school.
She thought that given Lu Jing's family background, he would definitely not attend classes in her school.
But I didn’t expect that he was really that junior fellow student!
Lu Jing also didn't expect that he would confess in this way...
He was too concerned about Wen Jiu's mood now, so he didn't dare to say anything for a while.
It was Wen Jiu who recovered first.
She glanced at Xiang Zichuan and Zhen Dejian, then went over and took Lu Jing's wrist: "Let's go, let's talk somewhere else."
Lu Jing swept away his sharp and domineering attitude and became as obedient as a sheep. He followed Wen Jiu and left the cafe with her.
Xiang Zichuan was shocked by the completely opposite sides of Lu Jing.
When he saw Wen Jiu, his eyes quickly averted, and the slight movement of his throat. His hand unconsciously grabbed the edge of the table at hand...
And when Wen Jiu pulled him, the joy in his eyes clearly expressed his feelings.
Wen Jiu didn't understand, but Xiang Zichuan was also a man and could understand it at a glance.
Lu Jing loves Wen Jiu deeply.
For this love, he actually had to hide his aggressive nature from her.
Xiang Zichuan smiled to himself.
How interesting.
I thought Lu Jing was an indestructible and perfect person.
But now, he discovered that Lu Jing also had a weakness.
That would be much easier to handle.
…
Wen Jiu didn't find a suitable place near the school, so she and Lu Jing went to his car to talk.
The two of them sat in. After a brief silence, Wen Jiu spoke first: "Is it really you who was the junior student who fought with Xiang Zichuan and the others in the drama club?"
Lu nodded: "Yeah."
"You hit Xiang Zichuan to stand up for me?"
Lu Jing hesitated for a few seconds and finally admitted: "Yeah."
"Why? I probably didn't know you before this, right?"
Wen Jiu really didn't understand now.
She always thought that the first time she met her junior classmate was in the drama club.
It was because she rescued the younger brother from Xiang Zichuan and the others that the younger brother was willing to go there every day and accompany her through the curtain.
But if the truth is what Lu Jing said, then they should have known each other before the drama club?
Lu Jing and Wen Jiu looked at each other for a few seconds and then confessed.
"I know you. I met you two years ago before that incident happened."
Wen Jiu was full of self-doubt: "I really can't remember..."
"In Beicheng, next to the Olympic Village, in an ordinary convenience store."
Lu Jing recalled the time and place when they first met...
If she hadn't asked, he really wouldn't want to recall it.
Because the first time he met her was the most difficult and disgraceful moment in his life.
He lowered his eyes slightly, avoided her gaze, and continued.
"The shopkeeper caught me stealing bread, you rescued me and gave me a thousand dollars."
Wen Jiu slowly opened her eyes and looked at him.
She did have an impression of this incident, but she really couldn't imagine that that person was actually Lu Jing!
That year, Beicheng hosted the Olympic Games again.
Wen Hua took Wen Jiu to watch the Olympics.
At that time, Wen Hua had not yet been deceived by his buddies, and Wen Jiu had not yet experienced the shock of being insulted by the person he liked.
She comes from a good family and grew up in love, so she is full of love for the world and is willing to help anyone she sees in trouble.
So, when she went to a convenience store at night and saw a shopkeeper grabbing a dirty little boy to go to the police station, she went over to intercede for him and paid for the bread for him.
The little boy told her that his mother was sick and he didn't have a penny on him, so Wen Jiu gave all the 1,000 yuan pocket money he had to the little boy.
But...but how could it be him?
She asked the doubts in her heart: "Your grandfather has always been the richest man in Beicheng. How come your mother has no money for medical treatment?"
Lu Jing really didn't know how to talk about these things for a while.
There have always been a lot of messy things in the Lu family.
The stupid things his father did, the suffering he suffered in the past, and the grievances his mother suffered...
To this day, when he thinks of those years, he feels breathless.
But because his grandfather controlled the absolute say in the media in Beicheng, those things had been well hidden.
The outside world only knows that he is the only grandson of the richest man in Lu, the future owner of Yang Tao, and knows nothing else.
He hesitated for a while and discussed with Wen Jiu: "I will tell you slowly later, okay?"
Today, he just wants to talk about the two of them.
Even if Wen Jiu didn't understand it, he could still guess that it was probably some unknown secrets within wealthy families.
She nodded. Since he didn't want to say it now, she wouldn't force him.
Lu Jing continued: "When you gave me the money, I asked you where you were going to repay the money, and you told me you were studying in this school."
"But my grades were not good at that time. I worked hard for two years before I was admitted to your school. As soon as I came in, I heard everyone talking about you being bullied by Xiang Zichuan..."
Wen Jiu's eyes were red: "So, in order to stand up for me, you beat him, and then they took him to the drama club for a group beating?"
Lu Jing thought about that time, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
What do you mean he was beaten by a group of people?
He was the one who beat up a group of them!
If Wen Jiu hadn't suddenly appeared at that time, he would have fought with them to the end even if he was disabled!
But in front of Wen Jiu, he still had to maintain his well-behaved image.
He nodded silently and said "hmm" softly.
He was forceful, but also a bit pleading: "Don't cooperate with Xiang Zichuan. He bullied you so much before. Don't reconcile with him, okay?"
Wen Jiu didn't say anything, she looked at him quietly.
This was the first time she looked at him so seriously, and she saw that his eyes were all about her.
Wen Jiu couldn't help but feel sour at the corners of her eyes.
"Don't cry..." Lu Jing saw her crying, and his heart almost broke.
He mustered up the courage to reach out and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, "I will compensate you for the 50 million contract."
It is not difficult to get 50 million advertising sponsorship for this show.
If he brushes his face more often, it shouldn't take long.
Wen Jiu shook her head, her foggy eyes full of guilt: "I don't feel sorry for the contract, I just... I feel sorry for you..."
She thought she had saved the little boy.
Little did he know that he was beaten just because he stood up for her.
He changed schools for her, and he rushed towards her desperately, but she didn't know anything.
Even, at the last moment, she violated their agreement...
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Wen Jiu repeated her guilt over and over again, "Back then, back then, I shouldn't have broken the promise..."
