Chapter 146: Moved Away

“Elder Ding, did you get stuck in traffic on the way here? That’s why you came so late?”

“It wasn’t a traffic jam. It was all because of this grandson of mine. He was dawdling before he came out. He changed his clothes in his room for a long time.”

“Grandpa, what nonsense are you talking?!”

Ding Yu quickly denied it, even though that was the truth.

As he thought that he would come here to see Cheng Ling today, he spent a long time choosing his clothes. There’s one that he thought was too casual, and the other too formal. In the end, he wore a proper suit. However, looking at himself in the mirror with his yellowish hair, he didn’t like it no matter how he looked at it. Nevertheless, he didn’t have time to dye his hair. So he could only come in this manner.

“It’s normal for young people to pay attention to their appearance.”

Old Master Cheng tried to smooth things over.

Xie Wan looked at the five people sitting at the table and was a little dissatisfied. She didn’t complain about Lu Qi sitting there, but why was Cheng Ling sitting there, too?

So she went around to Cheng Ling’s side and pulled Cheng Ling’s hand.

“What are you sitting here for? Quickly stand up and give the seat to Xiao Xiao.”

Cheng Ling pulled her hand back forcefully and turned her head to look at Xie Wan.

Cheng Ling’s eyes had always been idle and emotionless. However, with just one glance, Xie Wan saw the coldness in her eyes. It was very similar to the way Lu Qi looked at her in the clothing store that day.

“Are you sure you want me to let Cheng Xiao take this seat?”

Xie Wan calmed herself down. She was just a farm girl. What was there to be afraid of?

She nodded.

“Of course. You shouldn’t get the chance to sit with Old Master Ding and Master Lu.”

“If I get up, don’t regret it.”

Xie Wan remembered that the last time Cheng Ling said something similar to her was when she forced Cheng Ling and Xie Ying to leave the small villa. After that, Xie Wan had to apologize to Cheng Ling and Xie Ying dejectedly. Only then did Cheng Ling and Xie Wan agree to stay back.

But now, Cheng Ling had made Old Master Ding personally come to the school to deal with Ding Yu’s matter because she had beaten him up.

Now that she chased Cheng Ling away, Old Master Ding would probably even be happier.

So Xie Wan pulled Cheng Ling’s hand again, urging her to hurry up.

Cheng Ling was getting impatient from being pulled. In addition, she drank some wine, so her body swayed.

Fortunately, Lu Qi, who sat next to her, was in time to observe the situation and held her back.

How many times had this been? Cheng Ling thought to herself. When she was with Lu Qi, she felt as if her entire cerebellum was stunted. She was always out of balance.

“Where are you going?”

“My dear mother told me to leave and give this seat to my dear sister.”

Cheng Ling had always been very straightforward. This was the first time she sounded so weird.

After Cheng Ling stood up, Xie Wan quickly pulled Cheng Xiao to Cheng Ling’s seat and let her sit down. At this moment, Old Master Ding was being pulled to talk by Old Master Cheng. When he turned around, he saw that Cheng Ling was gone.

“Hey, where’s Cheng Ling?”

Ding Yu pointed to the left. Cheng Ling was sitting alone at another table.

“Why is Cheng Ling sitting there?”

Old Master Ding stood up and sat next to Cheng Ling.

What… What was going on?

Old Master Cheng was in a daze while Cheng Xiao felt very embarrassed. Why was everyone surrounding Cheng Ling again and again tonight? What had Cheng Ling done to these people?

Old Master Cheng and the others followed Old Master Ding.

The center of the banquet changed with Cheng Ling’s position.

Lu Qi poured a glass of warm water and stuffed it into Cheng Ling’s hand.

Old Master Cheng suddenly thought that Ding Shun was chasing after Cheng Ling because the fight last time had not been resolved yet.

“Old Master Ding, about the fight between Cheng Ling and your grandson…”

“Let’s not talk about that matter anymore. It’s all in the past. It’s all my grandson’s fault. He didn’t know how to be polite to girls and was even beaten down by them. I’ve already taught him a lesson when I got back.”

Ah? Taught Ding Yu a lesson?!

Was the old man in front of them still the Ding Shun they had heard of who spoiled his grandson to the heavens?

This time, Xie Wan didn’t dare to casually pull Cheng Ling. She just stuffed in a chair for Cheng Xiao to sit on.

Now that everyone was seated, Ding Yu had the chance to take a careful look at Cheng Ling.

When he first saw Cheng Ling, he had a feeling that she was shining in front of his eyes.

Usually, when he saw Cheng Ling, she was wearing a school uniform. But today, Cheng Ling was wearing this dress, and her whole body was shining white.

Coupled with her cold facial features, her whole body was like the bright moon at night, making him unable to take his eyes off her.
