Chapter 386: Chapter 384 Going to the Lu Family 6_1
Men seem to bathe quite quickly, and before she knew it, Xia Ningxing saw him come out.
Xia Ningxing looked at the water dripping from his ink-black hair, took a slight breath, and her eyes went wide, "That was fast?"
Lu Tingli stopped rubbing his hair, extended a finger to her lips, and said, "Don’t say that."
"Why?" Xia Ningxing blinked.
Lu Tingli answered, "Because that’s a kind of... contempt."
Xia Ningxing was silent for a moment.
"Lu, you!!!" After staring at him, Xia Ningxing quickly ran into the bathroom.
Lu Tingli curved his lips into a slight smile.
Only when she entered the bathroom did Xia Ningxing realize that the bathtub had already been filled with clean water.
She squatted down, stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the water, and found it to be just right.
It must have been Lu Tingli who had bathed first and then refilled the tub for her.
Xia Ningxing’s heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, thumping loudly, all of it the waves of romance.
The big boss was so considerate...
So lovely!
After her bath, Xia Ningxing climbed into bed and, with her rosy and fair little face, whispered into his ear, "Lu, thank you."
Lu Tingli knew she was referring to the bathwater, and he tapped her head lightly, "There’s no need for thanks between us."
After speaking, he noticed she was about to sleep with her hair still damp, and he frowned. As he lectured her with a stern face, he grabbed a dry towel to rub her head, "Going to bed without drying your hair, do you want to catch a cold?"
His tone was stern.
"Lu, I forgot, next time I will make sure it’s dry before sleeping..." Xia Ningxing let him fuss over her, her voice soft and tiny, pitiful like a stray cat.
Lu Tingli couldn’t bear to scold her anymore. Once her hair stopped dripping, he found a hairdryer to help dry her hair.
The warm air blew, and his slender fingers constantly weaved through her hair, ticklish and soothing.
The courtyard was very quiet at night, occasionally the sound of frogs could be heard, and outside the window, a few fireflies with lanterns fluttered by.
Xia Ningxing’s eyelids began to droop and fight each other.
By the time Lu Tingli had completely dried her hair, he found she had already fallen asleep.
He carefully tucked her into the bedding and then returned to his room.
The next day, after breakfast, relatives of the Lu family arrived one after another.
This time, Sir Lu had only invited some close relatives of the Lu family, excluding the distant and legitimate lineages.
Otherwise, there would have been several hundred people.
Even now, there were dozens.
Sir Lu was dressed in a festive red Tang suit today, his strong features wore a smile as he stood in front of the microphone, "You must have heard that Lu Qingze is not my biological son, but an impostor. Now, I would like to formally introduce to everyone my real son, Lu Dahai..."
After a speech, it was time to write the ancestral register.
The person responsible for writing the ancestral register was an old man from the Lu family. He took the thick register and crossed out the name of the fake Lu Lao’er’s family, and then wrote down the name of Mr. Lu’s family underneath.
"Add Xingxing too," said Sir Lu suddenly.
Xia Ningxing was caught off guard and taken aback at being mentioned suddenly.
She wasn’t part of the Lu family at the moment, so why was her name being added to the family register?
The elder instinctively asked, "Have you gotten married?"
"Not yet," Sir Lu shook his head.
The elder then said, "That doesn’t follow tradition."
Only those who are married and become true members of the Lu family can have their names written in the ancestral register.
"What’s not according to tradition? They are going to marry in the future anyway. Writing it now will save us starting the register again," Sir Lu rolled his eyes and insisted.
Actually, he insisted because he wanted to show Ningxing through his actions how much he, as a grandfather, valued her!
It was also to tell her that marrying into their Lu family would be the wisest decision she could make, and they would all spoil her like a princess.
Hearing this, the other members of the Lu family were surprised, looking at Xia Ningxing with newfound respect.
Being written into the family register without having married into the family yet, this girl was truly the first in the history of their Lu family!
Xia Ningxing was clearly aware that Sir Lu favored her, so he was granting her special permissions.
"Thank you, Grandfather," Xia Ningxing said softly to Sir Lu.
"We’re family, there’s no need for thanks," Sir Lu patted her shoulder before repeating firmly to the elder, "Write it quickly, don’t dawdle!"
"Fine, fine, fine, I’ll write it now," the elder complied. After all, Sir Lu was in charge of the family, and no one dared to object to his words.
Seeing Xia Ningxing’s name written in the family register, Sir Lu’s face beamed with joy as if she were already a part of the Lu family.
Then, Sir Lu announced to everyone, "In three days, I will host a banquet at home. I will send out invitations and hope you will all honor us with your presence."
The reason for the banquet was that he wanted to take the opportunity to introduce Mr. Lu’s family to high society, to make sure the upper class knew of their existence.
