Chapter 437

~4 min read 734 words

Leaving the tax office, the Mercedes-Benz was still outside. Lu Xiaoya listened to Su Xinghui and simply ignored it. The two walked on the sidewalk holding hands, and Tian Xiaotao also started the car and followed behind.

Su Xinghui really admired him a bit. This guy had a spirit of perseverance, and he was quite composed. Even with him and Lu Xiaoya like this, it hadn't angered Tian Xiaotao. This was an opponent worth paying attention to.

The two returned to the township government. Lu Xiaoya said, "Xinghui, I need to make a phone call home."

Su Xinghui found Wan Xing'an to get the key to the Party and Government Office, opened the door, and let Lu Xiaoya go in to make the call.

The person answering the phone should have been Song Qiaoli. Lu Xiaoya said, "Mom, I'm in Meng Hu Ling now. Yeah, staying in the township government reception room. It's quite good, don't worry about me. I'll be back after reporting for a few days. Oh, Dad wants to talk to me? Okay."

A few dozen seconds later, Lu Xiaoya said, "Dad, yes, I'm in Meng Hu Ling. Xinghui is taking good care of me, don't worry. What? Sister Ruoqiu is here? She wants to find me to play? Then you tell her tomorrow to come to Meng Hu Ling. Jiangcheng is so hot, Meng Hu Ling is quite cool. Okay, I'll call you tomorrow at noon. Okay, hanging up."

Hanging up the phone, Su Xinghui asked, "What did your parents say? Are they worried about you?"

Lu Xiaoya said, "Of course they're not worried. What's there to worry about when I'm here with you?"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "That's good."

Lu Xiaoya said happily, "By the way, Sister Ruoqiu is here, she might come to Meng Hu Ling to play too."

Su Xinghui said, "Who is Sister Ruoqiu?"

Lu Xiaoya said, "Oh, she is the niece of Uncle Gu's wife, named Yu Ruoqiu. She's a few months older than me. Last time she came to Jiangcheng with Aunt Gu, I got along quite well with her, so I call her Sister Ruoqiu. This time she came with Aunt Gu again."

Su Xinghui knew that the Uncle Gu Lu Xiaoya mentioned was Provincial Party Secretary Gu Shanmin, and he also knew that Gu Shanmin's wife, Yu Jingyan, was the daughter of revolutionary veteran Elder Yu. So, this Yu Ruoqiu should be Elder Yu's granddaughter.

However, he didn't pay much attention to it. He stood up and smiled, "It's getting late, I'll fetch water for you to take a bath, you take a bath and rest early."

Lu Xiaoya nodded in agreement. She went upstairs first. Su Xinghui went to the canteen and carried a bucket of boiling water to Lu Xiaoya's room. He first helped her scald a large wooden basin with the boiling water, poured the remaining boiling water into the basin, carried another bucket of cold water, adjusted the water temperature, and then left the room to let Lu Xiaoya take a bath.

At this time, Min Tong came. He came to Su Xinghui's room and told Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, that kid is staying in the Lu Family Hostel with us."

Su Xinghui smiled faintly and said, "Let him stay there if he wants. Just ignore him."

Min Tong said, "Should we think of a way to drive him away?"

Su Xinghui said solemnly, "Min Tong, you guys really shouldn't provoke him. I appreciate your good intentions. Forget it, I won't hide this from you anymore. His name is Tian Xiaotao, and his father is Governor Tian."

Min Tong gasped, "Governor Tian's son?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yeah, otherwise how could he be so arrogant?"

Min Tong asked worriedly, "Then what should we do?"

Su Xinghui said, "Nothing, we'll think of ways to deal with him slowly. He doesn't dare to act recklessly. If he wants to follow, let him follow. We won't lose a piece of meat. Just know his identity, don't spread it, and don't provoke him, so as not to give him an excuse to make things bigger."

Min Tong nodded and said, "Okay, I know. Then I'll go back first."

Not long after Min Tong left, Lu Xiaoya's room door opened, and Lu Xiaoya came out. Su Xinghui heard the door sound and went over to help Lu Xiaoya pour out the bathwater.
