Chapter 122: Going to the Zhou Family for Tutoring

~7 min read 1,226 words

After Su Yun Jiao said she would give all her inheritance to him, Lu Jingqing knew Su Yun Jiao was just talking nonsense.

However, Lu Mu now desperately needed money, so she didn't notice Su Yun Jiao's lies.

Lu Jingqing said, "However, regarding the inheritance, your father's lawyer came by a few days ago, but because you were busy with the college entrance exam, I didn't have him come see you; let's set a time for him to come now."

Su Yun Jiao nodded.

By the afternoon, the lawyer team had already found Su Yun Jiao.

Su Yun Jiao also very much wanted to know what exactly her father had left for her.

Because according to the inheritance rules, as soon as Su Yun Jiao became an adult, she could inherit these assets.

Originally, her father intended to use this rule to have the Lu family protect his daughter until she came of age.

Who would have thought that precisely because of this, Lu Mu set her sights on her.

In her previous life, because she soon got engaged to Lu Chi, Lu Mu took control of those assets, and she had no right to interfere.

Perhaps Lu Mu had also reached some deal with the lawyer.

This resulted in her being completely unable to inquire about her own inheritance.

This time, the lawyer placed a property contract in front of Su Yun Jiao and said, "Miss Su, this is all the property your father left for you. According to the contract, after you graduate from university, you can inherit all the property, but before university, you only have 200,000 yuan of discretionary funds each year."

Upon hearing this, Su Yun Jiao immediately understood.

Why, even after she got engaged to him in her previous life, the Lu family still went bankrupt.

It turned out that her father had left a loophole, to cultivate her habit of spending lavishly before university graduation, so he stipulated an annual discretionary fund of 200,000 yuan.

But an annual 200,000 yuan could in no way resolve the Lu clan's crisis.

Thus the Lu clan went bankrupt.

Su Yun Jiao once again saw the Su family estate listed in the contract; her father had left her 120 billion in assets, plus many antiques and treasures, including gold worth fifty million yuan from over ten years ago.

Seeing these, Su Yun Jiao understood that these were all the confidence her father had left for her.

Lu Jingqing beside her said nothing.

Only after Su Yun Jiao cried did Lu Jingqing have Secretary Li send the lawyer team away.

When Su Yun Jiao had almost finished crying, Lu Jingqing then said, "Can I understand that you burst into tears because you suddenly received so much property?"

Upon hearing Lu Jingqing's words, Su Yun Jiao glared at him: "I'm not crying because of this property; I'm not crying because my father has always been looking out for me!"

"Since you know your father has always been looking out for you, you should now strive to get into a good university; don't forget what you promised me."

Su Yun Jiao had previously promised Lu Jingqing that her college entrance exam score must be above 700.

Only by reaching 700 could Su Yun Jiao continue to stay at Jingyuan.

If she fails to reach that, there's nothing to discuss.

Su Yun Jiao also knew that with so much wealth in her hands, countless eyes outside were watching her.

Without Lu Jingqing's protection, she wouldn't know how unlucky she might become later.

Su Yun Jiao said, "Don't worry; even if it weren't for that promise, I would study hard for myself."

"As long as you are clear about it in your heart, that's enough."

After Lu Jingqing tossed out that sentence, he then told Secretary Li, "Go upstairs."

"Brother Jingqing, I won't come back home for dinner tonight; I've made plans with the class monitor and Zhou Tingting to study at the Zhou family's house tonight."

"Understood."

Lu Jingqing seemed not to take it to heart, casually letting Su Yun Jiao go.

The Zhou family's car also soon stopped outside Jingyuan.

Su Yun Jiao got into the car.

Zhou Tingting asked, "Why so slow?"

"Something came up temporarily."

Su Yun Jiao's eyes were both red.

Seeing Su Yun Jiao's state, Zhou Tingting couldn't help but say, "Could it be that Lu Jingqing bullied you because he knew you were going out?"

Upon hearing that, Su Yun Jiao startled: "How could that be?"

"I think so too; Lu Jingqing doesn't seem like that kind of person."

Zhou Tingting had the driver take them to the Zhou family's house.

Su Yun Jiao didn't see Zhou Xian in the car, so she asked, "Where is the class monitor?"

"My older brother is waiting for us at home."

Zhou Tingting said, "I don't know what's up today, but my older brother is especially focused on household cleanliness and even had the servants clean an extra time; it must be because you're coming over, since we rarely have guests."

"Yeah......"

Su Yun Jiao remembered that Zhou Xian had always been particular about hygiene even in class.

It seems that when she goes to Zhou Xian's house, she should pay attention and not make herself look too sloppy.

Soon, the car stopped at the Zhou family's parking lot.

Zhou Tingting led Su Yun Jiao upstairs together.

The Zhou family's decoration style differs from Lu Jingqing's home.

The Zhou family obviously focuses more on being low-key and restrained, yet it genuinely feels low-key.

Jingyuan has always had beautiful scenery, just like the gardens of a Jiangnan town.

As for the Zhou family, its theme is black, white, and gray tones, giving a feeling of modern, lazy comfort.

Moreover, its land area is truly not ordinary large; it could already be considered an estate.

"Brother, I've brought Su Yun Jiao back."

After Zhou Tingting entered the door and looked left and right, she saw only a few maids walk up to her and say, "Eldest Miss, the young master is already waiting upstairs for you and Miss Su."

Oh, then let's go in together.

Zhou Tingting pulled Su Yun Jiao upstairs together.

Su Yun Jiao was still visiting the Zhou family for the first time.

The hallway was spacious, and servants cleaned it back and forth.

It was clearly spotless.

And Zhou Tingting opened the study room's door.

As soon as the door opened, Su Yun Jiao saw several tutors in the room.

Unlike the teachers at school, the tutors here all had smiles on their faces and appeared respectful.

"Eldest Miss, Miss Su, hello."

The study room was spacious and had everything.

On the way, Su Yun Jiao also heard Zhou Tingting say that Madam Zhou, in order to let them study better, had even replicated a chemistry lab one-to-one.

"Sit here."

Zhou Xian had already prepared a chair for Su Yun Jiao.

Su Yun Jiao nodded and then walked over.

The tutors begin one-on-one focused tutoring; these plans are formulated based on their individual strengths and weaknesses, and each tutoring plan must be approved by Madam Zhou before it counts as passing.

As soon as Su Yun Jiao entered, she was given a set of test papers.

The purpose was to test Su Yun Jiao's weak points and which subjects she excelled at.
