Chapter 312: Cold Expression
Ling Sheng liked this relaxed family atmosphere a lot. There was no unfamiliarity at all. It felt as though they were all at home. They really treated her as one of their own.
No wonder Grandma had said that Father liked to come to the house where the old folks stayed the most. He would visit them when he had time. With such a group of adorable people around, it would be strange if he did not want to come.
The juniors greeted them in the parking lot. The three big boys helped carry the items and surrounded Ling Sheng while chatting and laughing.
Su Chi was a student at the Imperial Capital University. Upon hearing that Ling Sheng was also going to the Imperial Capital University, he said, “I heard that a girl joined the junior cla.s.s. That bunch of brats started calling her a G.o.ddess every time they saw her. No one believed them. So that was you!”
The other faculties even made fun of the students in the junior cla.s.s by saying that a female dinosaur must have joined the Math Department instead. They would punish those crazy fools when they got back.
“Yes, I’ll be there for a month to experience the academic atmosphere.” Ling Sheng smiled. “Don’t tell me the whole school knows that someone has joined the Math Department!”
“Why not? You don’t know how smug those brats are. Every time they meet someone, they say that a G.o.ddess has joined their cla.s.s. You have to know that the male-to-female ratio in the entire science school has reached 20:1. Everyone knows the quality of these girls. The whole school knows thanks to their clamoring.” Su Chi looked at Ling Sheng. The bunch of guys from the Math Department really had not lied. This relative of theirs was a true G.o.ddess.
If the school belle faced her, she would be easily defeated.
Ling Sheng knew that the Su Family included a lot of people, but when she saw a group of people coming over from the opposite side, she was still shocked.
She had to admit that looks and temperament were definitely hereditary. When handsome men and beautiful women stood next to each other, it was pleasing to the eye.
Su Chi pretended to be afraid and took a step back, hiding the gifts in his hand behind him. “Sister Sheng Sheng, come behind me. I’ll protect you.”
Ling Sheng was speechless.
Su Chi did not appear awkward. “Why do you think they’re here? Do you think they’re here to fight?”
Ling Sheng shook her head. Brother, you’re exaggerating. How could such good-looking people be involved in a gang fight? “I’m a little confused.”
“Let’s not talk about you. I’m confused too. It’ll be fine after some time. After all, our family is prosperous!” Su Chi let out a dull sigh and looked up at the crowd. “You’ve scared Sister Sheng!”
That was too much!
Too many people had run out. Who would keep the old folks company?
Then, he complained to Ling Sheng in a low voice. “Look at my grandparents. They’re already really old. Why are they acting like children? They even came out to join in the fun. It’s not like you can’t enter the house.”
The two sides met very soon. Regardless of their status or seniority, everyone surrounded Ling Sheng and pushed the others away.
Su Chi seemed like a white knight as he protected Ling Sheng. “Can you not be anxious? Come one by one. The fright you cause can scare one to death.”
Ling Sheng had no choice. They were really pa.s.sionate, so she did not know what to do. She just greeted them one by one warmly.
Su Yan looked at Ling Sheng, who was surrounded and about to wither away. She immediately hurried over to pull her away. “Father, can you control yourself? We’ll talk when we go in. You scared Sheng Sheng.”
Only then did the crowd disperse. When it did, Huo Ci finally had the chance to greet them one by one. His uncles and brothers nodded, giving him a cold look that said, We heard you. Why are you so annoying? Compared to the pa.s.sion they had shown Ling Sheng just now, their reaction made him feel uncomfortable.
