Seeing Gu Jinxi almost wanting to scoop all the dishes on the table into her bowl, Lu Miao quickly reached out and picked up a piece for Gu Jinxi, changing the subject, ” The expanded enrollment of No. 3 High School is about to begin. Are you ready?”

“Of course, I will never let Second Sister-in-law down,” Gu Jinxi stopped and pledged with determination, patting his chest.

“What expanded enrollment at No.3 High School? Is Jinxi going to go to school?” Shen Qinghe immediately asked excitedly.

Although Gu Jinxi had started to study hard under Lu Miao’s guidance, he refused to go to school.

She was quite worried about it, but she didn’t want to force him and risk straining their recently improved relationship. So she had no choice but to let him stay at home every day.

Lu Miao nodded. No. 3 High School was a public school in Luo City that was second only to Zhenhai High School.

In addition to the regular entrance exams, there was also an additional enrollment opportunity each year.

All students who missed the regular exams could participate, as long as their grades met the requirements, they could be admitted.

This was also the reason why she had been correcting his homework and tutoring him every day recently.

When Shen Qinghe heard this, she was so excited that she almost cried.

“That’s great. I really have to thank you.”

She quickly called for Auntie Xiu to add a few more dishes.

Lu Miao’s face turned green when she heard that they were all various green leafy vegetables. She quickly tried to stop them.

“Aunty Shen, that’s enough.”

Then, she turned to Gu Jinxi and said,” If you have any questions, feel free to look for me.”

“Hehe, alright.” Gu Jinxi nodded happily.

At the side, Gu Ziheng looked at Lu Miao’s concern for Gu Jinxi and could not help but feel a little envious.

Thinking of what happened in the ward that day, he regretted it even more now.

Originally, he also had the chance to get along well with her like Gu Jinxi.

He subconsciously reached out to pick up a prawn and carefully peeled the prawn skin. Before she could deliver it to Lu Miao, Gu Jinxi had already snatched it away and stuffed it into his mouth.

He said unhappily,” Stay away from Second Sister-in-law.”

Gu Ziheng’s face darkened.” Gu Jinxi, are you looking for a beating? She’s not only your sister-in-law!”

“She’s my second sister-in-law, and none of you recognize her anyway,” Gu Jinxi said impolitely.

He couldn’t let his second sister-in-law be bullied by him and Xingyu again.

Gu Ziheng was about to refute him when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He reached out and took a look. It was Lu Siyu.

Ever since she had asked about the program last time, she had called him twice during the past two days on the island, but he hadn’t picked up.

It was probably because of this matter again.

Gu Jinxi’s sharp eyes also saw it.” Lu Siyu? I knew you didn’t have good intentions.”

“1 cnan’t.” GU Llneng quicKIY nung up tne pnone.

He subconsciously turned to Lu Miao and explained,” She wanted to join my talent show, so she came to me. I definitely didn’t plan anything with her in private.”

Mr Gu, who was sitting on the side and ignored by everyone, looked at his two arguing younger brothers and suddenly felt that both of them were redundant.

He tapped the table in front of him with his fingers.”Eat. Whoever speaks again will be kicked out.”

The two of them immediately shut their mouths.

Gu Jinxi glared at Gu Ziheng warningly, telling him to stay away from Lu Miao.

Gu Ziheng responded with a defiant glance.

Shen Qinghe looked at her two sons, who had suddenly become extremely childish, with a look of disdain. She then picked up some celery for Lu Miao.

The corners of Lu Miao’s lips twitched. She quietly moved towards Gu Shiyan and silently distanced herself from Gu Jinxi and Shen Qinghe.

A smile flashed across Gu Shiyan’s lips. He reached out and moved the plate full of vegetables in front of her to himself.

After dinner, Gu Ziheng went to the ancestral hall to see Gu Xingyu.

As soon as he entered, he saw the overturned food on the floor.

When Gu Xingyu saw him, she immediately grabbed him and anxiously asked,

“Third Brother, did Mom send you to tell me that I can go out now?”

Gu Ziheng sighed, “Xingyu, as long as you apologize and admit your mistake to Lu Miao, Mom will let you go out.”

“You want me to apologize to Lu Miao? She can forget about it in this lifetime.” Gu Xingyu gritted her teeth.

“That day, you were the one in the wrong. Lu Miao gave me the medicine out of good intentions, but you twisted her meaning and even knocked over the medicine in front of her. Whether it’s from the most basic courtesy of being a human or from the perspective of a family, it’s indeed your fault.”Gu Ziheng advised her helplessly.

He tried to make Gu Xingyu realize what she had done wrong that day.

Gu Xingyu shook him off and looked at him in disbelief. “Perspective of a family?” Third Brother, are you speaking up for Lu Miao?”

“Xingyu, don’t get too worked up. I think you have some misunderstanding about Lu Miao.”

Gu Ziheng reached out to pull Gu Xingyu.” I’ll get you something to eat. Eat first and I’ll tell you slowly.”

“I won’t listen to you. I definitely don’t have any misunderstandings about her.

You’re all deceived by her!”

Gu Xingyu grabbed his arm forcefully.” Have you forgotten what I told you before?

She didn’t have good intentions when she gave you that medicine! She wants to kill you and everyone in the Gu family so that she can inherit our family’s inheritance. Don’t be deceived by her.”

“Xingyu, she, the medicine she gave is really very precious.”

“She does! Even if those medicines are fine, she’s only trying to bribe you, gain your trust, and prepare for future actions.”

Gu Xingyu roared at the top of her lungs,” It’s only been a few days, and you’ve already been deceived by her.”

No matter what Gu Ziheng told her, she refused to believe it and insisted that Lu Miao wanted to harm him.

In the end, even Gu Ziheng was a little angry.

He didn’t know why Gu Xingyu had such a deep misunderstanding of Lu Miao and wouldn’t listen to him.

Helpless, he had to temporarily give up and turned to leave.

Watching his retreating figure, Gu Xingyu wished she could immediately rush out and strangle Lu Miao!

It had only been a few days, and even Third Brother had been successfully bribed by her. That woman was a witch!

Meanwhile, at the Lu residence.

Lu Siyu held the phone in her hand, looking at the screen that remained dark, feeling increasingly anxious and uneasy.

Gu Ziheng had always been good to her, but for the past few days, she couldn’t get through to him on the phone. Could it be that Lu Miao said something to him and he didn’t want her to participate in the show?

The more Lu Siyu thought about it, the more uneasy she became.

Gritting her teeth, she dialed the number again, but it was quickly hung up on the other end.

Beside her on the sofa, Lu Qin, with a stern face, directly asked, “Did Gu Ziheng reply to you?”

“The show is about to start recording. He might be busy at the moment. I’ll call him later.”Lu Siyu tried her best to explain.

“You’d better call him quickly to confirm.”

Lu Qin replied in frustration,” Useless. If I had known earlier, I would have kept

Lu Miao..”
