Chapter 373: Chapter 371: Lu Family Recognizes Relatives 8_1

"What kind of impostor?" Lu Tingli couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows as he touched the steering wheel, looking puzzled at the little girl.

Xia Ningxing’s little mouth babbled: "It’s just..."

She briefly told him about how the Lu Family’s second son was lost and then found again.

Then she asked, "Lu, do you know what Mr. Lu’s longevity lock looks like? Is it the same as the Lu Family heirloom longevity lock?"

"They’re the same. I’ve heard my dad mention it many times since I was a kid," Lu Tingli nodded with certainty.

Xia Ningxing said excitedly, "In that case, it seems that this Lu Lao’er really is an impostor taking someone else’s place, and the real second son of the Lu Family is actually your dad!"

"It’s indeed very possible," Lu Tingli nodded again.

Xia Ningxing added, "I’ll find a way to get them three a paternity test."

After saying that, she added, "Lu, before the paternity test results come out, let’s not tell Mr. Lu about this. Just in case, if it turns out not to be true, Mr. Lu will be heartbroken again."

Lu Tingli agreed, "I’ll listen to Baby Xing."

Xia Ningxing acted quickly and in no more than two days gathered all the necessary items for the paternity test.

Sir Lu’s sample was hair, which she plucked while the old man was unconscious from acupuncture.

Mr. Lu’s was also hair.

For Lu Lao’er, it was a cigarette he had smoked.

A paternity test usually takes about half a month, but Xia Ningxing expedited the process, spending five times the money, so the results would be available in just three days.

In the following three days, Xia Ningxing acted as if nothing had happened, as if she had not noticed anything at all.

As for Lu Lao’er, he had not made any moves for the time being, and it was unclear whether the failure from last time had scared him or if he was brewing some other sinister plot. At any rate, things were calm for now.

Sir Lu’s health improved day by day, and the day before the paternity test results were to come out, he looked at Xia Ningxing with a kindly expression and asked, "Miss Xia, do you have a partner?"

"I do," Xia Ningxing replied while administering acupuncture.

The old man’s poisoning had been severe before, and he would fall unconscious every time he was given acupuncture shots, but as the poison gradually lessened, he wouldn’t pass out unless she intentionally targeted his sleep acupoint.

"You already have a partner?" At these words, Sir Lu’s brow furrowed so deeply it almost twisted into a pretzel, his face stretched long and droopy, almost outdoing a donkey’s.

These days, it seemed all the good cabbages were already snagged by pigs!

But!

As long as they’re not married, there’s a chance!

"What’s the matter, Old Mr. Lu?" Seeing his heartbroken look, Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but frown slightly and asked softly, "Does it hurt too much? Should I put you to sleep with a shot?"

Since the elderly man in front of her might very well be Dean Lu’s grandfather, Xia Ningxing’s attitude toward him had already changed. She had become more willing to be close to him, unlike before when she always kept a polite distance.

"No, no, don’t make me sleep, I don’t want to pass out," Old Mr. Lu shook his head quickly, his face showing a childlike petulance.

"Then what’s wrong?" Xia Ningxing was perplexed.

Sir Lu revealed his purpose: "Grandpa wants to set you up with someone!"

"..." Xia Ningxing choked up and was left speechless.

Once she got her bearings, she hurriedly waved her hands, "Old Mr. Lu, didn’t I tell you? I already have a partner, so there’s no need for an introduction, but thank you for your kind intention."

She could only ever belong to the boss!

In life and in death!

"Miss Xia, I know you have someone, but you shouldn’t just cling to one tree and hang yourself from it. Take advantage of your youth to consider options, you might just find that the right person is the next one!" In an effort to turn Xia Ningxing into his granddaughter-in-law, Old Mr. Lu had already set aside his pride and was rambling with a bunch of nonsensical words.

"Moreover, my eldest grandson is a gentleman with both looks and brains, gentle and courteous, full of wisdom and strategies..." Old Mr. Lu was talking up a storm, blowing a whole bunch of embarrassing smoke up just to market his grandson.

Xia Ningxing felt like spitting soda all over his face.

Mr. Lu was still in the middle of his sales pitch, "The most important thing is, he’s also in the entertainment industry, so he shares common ground with you in terms of spirit. Isn’t this what you young people value nowadays? Miss Xia, my eldest grandson is coming back to the country this very afternoon. Do you think you could meet him for a bit?"

The eldest grandson Old Mr. Lu was referring to was the son of Dean Lu, who had been studying abroad, specializing in talent agent knowledge.

Originally, Old Mr. Lu had wanted to introduce Xia Ningxing to the son of Lu Lao’er, as he was more fond of this second son. However, on second thought, considering the son Jiaren was not presentable, certainly not worthy of such a lady, Sir Lu dismissed the idea.

Xia Ningxing didn’t even think before shaking her head directly, "No, that’s absolutely impossible. I would never do anything to betray my partner!"

Old Mr. Lu pouted, "It’s just a meeting, not as serious as you make it out to be."

"Still no." Xia Ningxing firmly refused.

"Miss Xia..." Old Mr. Lu’s eyes looked pitifully at her.

Heaven knows how much he wanted her to become his granddaughter-in-law, to become part of his family!

Before Old Mr. Lu could say anything more, Xia Ningxing felt annoyed and simply hit him right on his sleep acupoint.

Before losing consciousness, Mr. Lu was utterly bewildered.

What happened to not knocking him out?

Where is the basic trust between people?

Xia Ningxing, looking at Old Mr. Lu who finally shut up, let out a sigh of relief, thankful for the quiet at last.

After administering the acupuncture, Ningxing did not wait around and quickly made her escape, lest Mr. Lu woke up and started insisting she go on a blind date with his grandson.

Xia Ningxing had classes in the afternoon, so after leaving the hospital, she went straight to university.

When school was out, just as Xia Ningxing was stepping out of the school gates, she was stopped by a tall, handsome man.

"Hello Xia Ningxing."

He was smiling, offering his hand to her.

With furrowed brows, Xia Ningxing didn’t reach out to shake his hand, her voice cool as she asked, "Who are you?"

While speaking, Xia Ningxing was observing the man before her.

The man in front of her had sunny and chiseled features, extraordinarily handsome, dressed in a black coat with a tall and straight posture. Behind his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes shone with intelligence and kindness, and his slight smile could make one’s heart flutter uncontrollably.

But...

That face...

He bore at least a fifty percent resemblance to Old Mr. Lu.

Xia Ningxing quickly understood; the old rascal wasn’t beaten yet and had pulled a fast one.

The old man must have thought her partner was a very ordinary man, so he believed that once she met his distinguished grandson, she would no longer even give a second glance at her current partner.
