Chapter 614: Second Master, the Patriarch Asks For You All To Make a Trip Back At Once
When the two of them arrived at the other villa, the second session was about to start.
“Little Zi, where did you go in the afternoon? We were still planning to have you complete a painting!”
At the sight of Zi Yi walking over, Elder Bai called for her to come over to their table.
As soon as Elder Bai took the lead, the others had also started talking about her.
“You’re too much. We have waited almost half a day for you and yet, you actually hid away somewhere.”
Zi Yi laughed and said, “I was trying to recharge my batteries so that I can drink with the people who want to drink with us and make them drunk!”
“You cheeky lass. In that case, come to have a drink with us first. We’ll drink while we draw. We’ll take a sip then draw a few strokes and as for the completed painting, we’ll give it to your art gallery.”
Zi Yi was tempted by his words. “Then we’ll settle with that.”
Those from the Painting and Calligraphy Association immediately started painting.
Lu Jingye immediately got helpers to make space and brought a table along with some painting tools.
The others stretched their necks and looked in their direction.
While watching, everyone said with a laugh, “We’ll be able to see the group of masters from the Painting and Calligraphy Association paint collectively. It can be considered that we have basked in Zi Yi’s fortune.”
Zi Yi and the group of masters each went to a table.
Zi Yi, who was wearing a red evening dress, stood out the most as she stood in the middle.
Elder Bai said, “We’ll each paint the same rich peony and we’ll divide it into 10 stages. Whoever draws the slowest shall drink.”
The other masters immediately responded. “We agree.”
As soon as they said that, everyone looked at Zi Yi with a meaningful gaze.
Zi Yi swept her eyes across them and thought to herself, “You’re blatantly making it so that I can’t drink, right?”
“I agree too.” At the very most, she can reduce her speed.
The few of them started at once.
Zi Yi would take a look at the other masters whenever she added a stroke to the painting.
When everyone was more or less done, she continued to paint.
Unexpectedly, she still won the first stage.
The other masters raised the alcohol and took a whiff. Elder Bai revealed a happy expression as he said, “Wedding alcohol is the best.”
Having said that, he finished the cup.
Zi Yi clicked her tongue and waited to continue the following stages.
The crowd increased in size as time passed. Everyone looked at how Zi Yi would walk around the other masters whenever she finished some strokes. Despite doing this, she was still faster than them and the crowd could not help but laugh out loudly.
The First Madam laughed happily. “This group of masters are too mean. Look at how Yiyi’s lips are pouting.”
The Second Madam said with a wide smile, “Yiyi draws too fast. Everyone slowly thinks before they move their brushes, but she just adds strokes to the painting as she wishes.”
Mrs. Lu said, “Haha, that’s why our Yiyi is the best.”
The group of masters had used nearly an hour to paint but Zi Yi did not have the patience to wait for them and she finished the painting early. “I’ll admit my defeat. You can slowly paint, I’ll go and drink with the others.”
Elder Bai scolded. “You lass, don’t you know how to draw slowly?”
“It’s such a simple painting and it’s a waste of time to paint slowly.”
“...”
When the leaders of the school saw that Zi Yi was done with painting, they called for her.
The Dean asked with a smile, “Little Zi, it will be the final exam next month. You won’t be absent, will you?”
Zi Yi thought about it. There were still six days before the month ended and after that would be the New Year and that would be a three day holiday. Even though she had nine days, she could not guarantee that she would return by then.
In the end, she said, “I wish to answer the question paper online.”
The school leaders made eye contact. This type of situation was not unfamiliar. After all, some of the outstanding students might be participating in competitions abroad during the examination month.
A few seconds later, the Dean nodded. “If you wish to answer the question online, you must find an empty room and undergo a live broadcast.”
“That’s not a problem.”
As long as she had the will, no one would be able to pinpoint her location through the internet.
“Alright then, the various schools will send you the examination date and timing. You will have to make preparations in advance then.”
“Alright.”
As a result, this was how the matter was resolved and it was settled just like that.
The atmosphere at the wedding banquet was very lively. Everyone chatted about academic problems and drank some alcohol.
Unknowingly, it was already around eight in the evening.
Everyone still had work the next day and so, they took their leave.
After sending away all the guests, the Lu Family members, and Dou Family members sat together. Everyone chatted about how Zi Yi and Lu Jingye would be visiting before the Dou Family took their leave.
There were housekeepers, helpers, and her robots taking care of the clean-up aftermath, so they did not have to worry about it.
Second Master Lu and Mrs. Lu clearly had something to say to them. Lu Jingye said, “Let’s head to the other villa.”
A few friends of Lu Jingye were still staying in the current villa and what they were about to discuss could not be known by others.
As soon as they were about to leave, Lu Jianlin’s phone suddenly rang.
He glanced at the caller id and answered with a taut expression.
The caller was the housekeeper from the main residence.
This was already the tenth phone call.
As soon as the call was connected, the housekeeper said, “Second Master, the Patriarch asks of you all to return to the main residence at once.”
Lu Jianlin looked at his son and daughter-in-law before he said, “I’ll come over later. Jingye and Little Zi are tired and they have already returned to rest.”
The housekeeper said “This is the Patriarch’s instructions, and I am only responsible for conveying the words. It’s up to Second Master whether to come or not.”
He hung up the phone after he said his piece.
Lu Jianlin looked at the disconnected phone call and he showed no expression.
Mrs. Lu asked, “Jianlin, is that a phone call from the main residence?”
Even though she did not hear what the other party said, Mrs. Lu had more or less guessed the contents of the call. She said discontentedly, “Don’t think that Father has thought things through and decided to accept Yiyi just because he is calling us over at this time. If he really did think things through, he would not have called at this time.
I guess that the other aristocratic families might have said something in front of him that made him unhappy. He’s calling us over to give us a scolding.”
How could Lu Jianlin not know that his father was angry because they had stopped the Lu Family members outside the gates and caused him to lose face? Not to mention, Lu Zhiheng would certainly add fuel to the fire and say some rubbish. This was why he got the housekeeper to call him repeatedly to come back.
They would receive a scolding even if they went back.
Today was his son’s wedding day and so how could he allow his son and daughter-in-law to get scolded?
Lu Jianlin said, “Head over to the other villa first. I’ll return to the main residence alone.”
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye did not say anything as they had more or less guessed what had happened.
When they arrived at the other villa, Lu Jianlin said to Lu Jingye with a serious tone, “No matter what happens, when you leave this time, you must find a way to let Yunxiao wake up as soon as possible.”
If Lu Yunxiao did not wake up, it was just like a time bomb buried around them. They were afraid that the bomb would suddenly explode.
Lu Jingye nodded his head. “Alright.”
Mrs. Lu also said with a worried tone, “Jingye, Zi Yi, why don’t the two of you leave tonight? I feel a little uneasy when Father is suddenly calling the family to head over.”
“No.”
Lu Jianlin disapproved. “Little Zi and Jingye just got married today and they must pay a visit to the Dou Family’s residence tomorrow. This is a cultural custom of our country and the Dou Family is a scholarly family. They value these types of customs more than we do and we can’t make them feel that we are disrespecting them.”
