Chapter 440: Inviting Zi Yi to Lu Family’s Dinner Banquet

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the poisoning incident in M.Uni, Zi Yi’s fame soared.

In particular, the students within the School of Science and Technology see her as their goddess.

Through this incident, Zi Yi’s popularity increased and there were many people waiting for her to run for the Student Union, so that they could vote for her.

At that moment, Zi Yi was in a conversation with Elder Tang and a group of professors from the School of Science and Technology.

“Zi Yi had used the YY agent and a few other simple chemical compounds to detoxify such a strong poison. No one knows of this detoxification method at all!”

“Therefore, this needs to be patented.”

“That’s right. This method is the fruit of Zi Yi’s research and we must apply for a patent.”

“Little Zi, why don’t you write this type of experimental detoxification method as a paper and publish it?”

“I think it’s feasible. She’ll be able to win an award too.”

The group of professors discussed this and even Elder Tang had the same thoughts.

Zi Yi already had her own plans after she heard what they had said. Therefore, the matter was decided on just like that.

After coming out from the building, Elder Tang took Zi Yi to the traditional Chinese medicine classroom in the School of Medicine.

“Say, your hands-on abilities are terrible. One or two months have already passed, so why didn’t you train? Is this even the correct way of inserting the needle?”

Zi Yi was holding onto a few silver needles in her hand and in front of her was a human mannequin. Elder Tang was currently teaching her his silver needles technique.

Zi Yi guiltily changed her hand posture and said, “Teacher, is this better?”

With a wave of her hand, a few silver needles flew out.

“This won’t do. Even though you got the acupuncture points correct, your strength is lacking.”

Dou Xiaoyong, who had followed them and stood by the side to watch, suddenly felt concerned for his niece.

He felt that Zi Yi had already done a good job.

Elder Tang got Zi Yi to pull out the needles from the mannequin and continue to train.

Dou Xiaoying could not stand it anymore and said to Elder Tang, “Mr. Tang, Little Zi only just started learning this skill and it’s normal that she is unable to grasp the correct strength. You have to give her time.”

Elder Tang looked at Zi Yi who had not complained in the slightest and felt his heart soften. In the end, he said, “Alright then, we’ll end it here today. I’ll give you the names of a few books related to this silver needle technique. Head over to the library and borrow the books, so you can have a good read.”

Zi Yi hastily nodded her head. “Alright!”

Just then, Elder Tang seemed to have suddenly recalled something and he slapped his forehead. “What time is it now?”

Zi Yi and Dou Xiaoyong looked at him curiously, but Dou Xiaoyong still checked the time and said, “3:05 p.m.”

Elder Tang said, “Oh dear, I promised the Dean of the School of Medicine that I would hold a lecture today. How could I have forgotten about this?”

He then said to Zi Yi, “Go back and train on your skills. It’s best to find someone to train on… You’re not allowed to be lazy. I will drop by and check on you from time to time.”

“Okay, understood.”

The three of them left the building together and Elder Tang headed in a different direction to give his lecture.

Dou Xiaoyong answered a call and said to Zi Yi, “You should go back and attend your classes. If a reporter stops you when you finish school, give me a call and I’ll bring you away.”

After the incident in the afternoon, there would definitely be reporters keeping guard outside the school gates. Dou Xiaoyong was worried that Zi Yi might be asked some questions that she did not wish to answer.

Zi Yi responded with a nod and Dou Xiaoyong left.

…

Lu Family. Within Patriarch Lu’s room.

“Patriarch Lu, the Zi Yi whom you got me to investigate, has caused a huge incident in M.Uni today.”

One of his subordinates then recounted what had happened in school.

Patriarch Lu sat on his chair and was originally resting his eyes. After he heard what his subordinate reported, he opened his eyes.

However, he did not say anything but instead motioned for the subordinate to leave.

After he left, the housekeeper came in and greeted him, before he then stood there without uttering a single word.

Patriarch Lu asked, “Has the Second Madam arrived yet?”

The housekeeper hastily replied, “The Second Madam said she would be coming over in the afternoon.”

“Get her to personally pay a visit to the Dou Family and invite Dou Hongguang along with his granddaughter.”

The housekeeper glanced at Patriarch Lu’s expression and answered, “I understand.” Following that he left the room.

It just so happened that the First Madam had walked past Patriarch Lu’s courtyard just then and heard what he had said. She softly called out, “Housekeeper.”

The housekeeper who was heading somewhere stopped walking.

The First Madam went over to the housekeeper and asked, “Patriarch Lu is inviting Headmaster Dou and his granddaughter too?”

“That’s right.”

The housekeeper left after he said that.

The First Madam who was originally planning to pay a visit to Patriarch Lu’s room thought for a moment, before she turned around and called Lu Zhiheng as she informed him of this matter.

After she told him about it, she managed to make a guess. “The Old Man is suddenly inviting the Dou Family, and even got the housekeeper to invite that granddaughter of Headmaster Dou. Could it be that he has agreed to let Jingye hang out with that woman?”

Lu Zhiheng said with certainty, “Impossible. Even if Zi Yi is Headmaster Dou’s granddaughter, based on her previous reputation, grandfather would never agree for Second Brother to marry her.”

The First Madam had the same thought. Patriarch Lu was someone who cared about face and if someone were to bring up this topic to him in the future, how would he be able to keep his face?

The First Madam asked, “Then why did he invite that woman?”

Lu Zhiheng said, “It’s possible that he is thinking of warning her to distance herself from Second Brother.”

Patriarch Lu was originally someone with a short temper and he only started to pay attention to taking care of his health after he retired.

Lu Zhiheng said, “Since grandfather knows about Zi Yi, he would have definitely sent someone to investigate her. Second Brother is deeply charmed by this woman but grandfather could not possibly get angry at him. So, he can only interfere in their relationship through the woman.”

The First Madam was elated. “This is even better. Jingye would definitely get into an argument with your grandfather because of her and as long as he infuriates your grandfather, coupled with our nagging at the side, I don’t believe you can’t take back what originally belongs to you.”

“There’s also Aisha.” Lu Zhiheng reminded the First Madam. “The little princess of the Alysseus Family. We have to get her on our side…”

The First Madam was very confident in her nephew and niece’s capabilities. “Don’t worry, I’ve already got your cousins to settle this matter. Little Xuan is so handsome and good at cajoling people. It’s going to be easy to win over Aisha.”

After they chatted for a while more, they ended the call.

Only then did the First Madam happily walk into Patriarch Lu’s room.

…

As soon as Zi Yi walked out of the teaching building, she received a call from Mrs. Lu.

They started with a casual chat first before Mrs. Lu suddenly asked, “Little Zi, there is going to be a dinner banquet at the Lu Family’s main residence the day after tomorrow, do you want to come over and play?”

The moment Zi Yi heard her question, she knew that Patriarch Lu wanted to see her.

Mrs. Lu also felt that the Old Man had other intentions of wanting to meet with Zi Yi at this point in time. Before Zi Yi could respond, she said, “Forget it. It’s better that you don’t go over. It’s not going to be enjoyable anyway.”

Zi Yi thought for a moment and asked, “Have you invited my Uncles too?”

“Not yet. I wanted to inform you about this first. Little Zi, if you don’t wish to go, Auntie shall find a reason and refuse for you.”

Zi Yi did not agree nor disagree and she merely said, “Auntie, you can try giving my Uncles a call first.”

“Alright then.”

After hanging up the call, Zi Yi narrowed her eyes.

As for Patriarch Lu wanting to meet her, it was definitely not because he had a favorable impression of her.

“What are you planning to do by inviting my grandfather’s family too?”
