After Being Forced to Become a Bigshot, I Only Want to be Normal Chapter 56 – 56 Think Before You Speak

56 Think Before You Speak

She looked at the two children and beckoned with a wave. “Let’s go eat!”

The family of four found a slightly more upscale cafeteria.

After ordering their food, Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi kept looking at each other and did not know how to broach the question.

Lu Ning found it unbearable and stated flatly, “Mom, Dad, just ask whatever’s on your mind.”

Shen Yunci asked, “Ning’ning, how did you realize that our Little Darling is a genius?”

Lu Zhi asked, “Ning’ning, how did you get in touch with those teachers?”

“Ning’ning, how do you know so much?”

“Ning’ning, how…”

“…”

Lu Jingzhi turned to his sister and shot her a glance that said, you’re on your own.

Lu Ning interrupted them. “Mom, Dad! Slow down, I’ll start from the beginning.”

Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci straightened their backs.

“It’s like this—at first, Jingzhi gave me something he had made himself…”

Before she could continue, she noticed Jingzhi giving her a certain look.

She immediately clammed up and changed the topic. “I accidentally saw Jingzhi looking at my homework and trying to solve the questions…”

Contented, Jingzhi went back to sipping on his juice.

Lu Ning omitted parts of the story here and there, and briefly described what had transpired.

“And that’s about it, Mom, Dad.”

After she finished, a glass of juice appeared in front of her from her side.

Lu Jingzhi beamed at her. Lu Ning took the glass and emptied it in one gulp.

When she finished explaining, Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci were finally able to understand how this situation came about.

They looked at Lu Jingzhi with disbelief.

“Little Darling, it’s Mommy’s and Daddy’s fault for not noticing these in the past. Mommy and Daddy have been negligent, but it’s not because we don’t love you, Mommy and Daddy really love you very much!”

She was probably afraid that Lu Jingzhi would overthink the situation; after all, he had lived with them for so many years and yet they never had any inkling he was a genius. However, his sister realized it shortly after she arrived.

Lu Jingzhi looked at them, calm and collected. “I know.”

Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci still felt bad for being negligent and blamed themselves. After all, their youngest son had really been different from other children since he was young; he always acted far too mature for his age.

It was truly fortunate that Ning’ning came back, otherwise Jingzhi’s true potential would remain undiscovered.

Shen Yunci held Lu Ning’s hand. “Thank you, Ning’ning.”

Lu Ning looked at her quizzically. “Mom, what are you saying? Jingzhi’s my younger brother, and besides, this is due to his own capabilities. It’s not something I gave him, I simply found out about it.”

Shen Yunci smiled at her two lovable children.

It’s great that the two younger siblings are so much more dependable than their older siblings.

After the meal, Lu Ning prepared to go to school after leaving a few parting words for Lu Jingzhi.

She did not let her parents send her; instead, she headed to the bus stop that was conveniently nearby and took a bus.

The bus stop near her school was also within walking distance; it was only about a hundred meters away.

It was still early, and Lu Ning was one of the first to arrive. She made a beeline for the school infirmary.

Gu Zi was rocking on his chair, mumbling something under his breath. Lu Ning’s sudden entrance startled him and he almost toppled over.

“Why so jumpy? Badmouthing me behind my back?”

Gu Zi hurriedly pulled a chair over for her.

“There’s no way I’d say anything bad about you!”

Gu Chen had already prepared the items to change Lu Ning’s dressing.

“Baby, why’d you leave so early yesterday? You left without even seeing us!”

Lu Ning moved a hand to peel off the gauze. “I went for an interview. Plus, Daddy happened to come pick me up, so we went back together. I’m sure I messaged you.”

As she finished speaking she sharply inhaled a breath of cold air; some of the gauze had stuck to the wound.

“You okay? I’ll fix that for you.”

“It’s fine. I got it off.”

She shook her head gently, still feeling a little woozy.
