Translator: Fringe CapybaraChapter 188 â âNo, it wasnât meâŠâ (1)
âMr. Lu, we are so glad that you can attend this Quality Development Outing in person,â said the principal to Lu Shao in the lounge after pouring him a cup of tea.
This Mr. Lu sitting in front of him right now was their biggest trustee. When he sent the Quality Development Outing plans to him previously, he had only received a reply that said âdoableâ. The principal had been a bit nervous this entire time.
He hadnât expected Mr. Lu coming to observe the schoolâs performance in person.
Lu Shaoâs hand that was holding the cup of tea paused in mid-air.
âI am here for my son this time,â explained Lu Shao. There was a shred of impatience in his voice as though he was saying that he really didnât have time but only made himself available but his son really wanted him there.
He really wasnât there to surveil the school.\n
After all, it was never part of the Luâs plans to invest in No. 7 High School and he never paid it that much attention.
Lu Shaoâs explanation startled the principal.
âYour son is studying at our school?â The principalâs eyes widened, apparently finding that very difficult to believe.
âMmhmm.â Lu Shao nodded but wasnât going to elaborate on it.
âI had not been doing my job properly then.â The principal gave an embarrassed smile, wiped off his sweat, and said, âDare I ask who your son isâŠâ
âThatâs not important,â said Lu Shao. Recalling that snotty look on Su Han, Lu Shao narrowed his eyes and said in a cold and stiff tone, âAnd he definitely does not need any special treatment.â
âI get it, Mr. Lu. Donât worry. Our school will treat all of our students equally,â said the principal as he nodded.\nThat being said, the principal had made up his mind that he would be visiting the campground to have it all figured out.
âThen, Mr. Lu,â said the principal after a slight pause. âIs there anything that you think is deficient during this Quality Development Outing? Or anything that we can get for you?â
âThat would not be necessary.â
âThen youâŠâ
âI am going to head over to the ranch,â said Lu Shao as he stood up, interrupting the principalâs sentence.

Over at the campground on the other end.\n\nâWow, Daddy Su Han, you really got a chicken. And it is already prepped. How thoughtful is that?â Zhou Qin was pleasantly surprised when she saw the chicken in Lu Shaoâs hand.
âHrm, how do we know that he didnât just buy that from a supermarket nearby? We just might be able to find a barcode or something on the chickenâs feet.â Su Han, standing nearby, turned his head to one side and grumbled in a low voice.
Except that the little bit of nervousness in his eyes that even he wasnât aware about had disappeared miraculously.
âOf course not. You can tell this this chicken was just processed,â said Zhou Qin with a smile.
Lu Shao gave Su Han a cold look before he looked away. Turning over to Su Ran and the others, he said, âIâve already taken care of the chickenâs blood and gizzards. If you donât know how to clean and chop it, just leave it to one side for now. I can do it in a little while.â
Su Ran: Nope, I dunno how.
âHaha, you have already done all the hard work, Daddy Su Han. Of course we can take care of the rest. Just leave it here. We will take care of it,â said Zhou Qin with a smile.
