Millionaire Suddenly Appears

"Don't be angry, grandpa is just joking." Saying this, Old Master walked over and held Wu Tian's arm, "Lad, this time thanks to you helping us out, I, Lu Dingquan, thank you."    

    

After saying this, Old Master bowed deeply towards Wu Tian to express his gratitude.    

    

"You're too polite." Wu Tian hurriedly supported Old Master's body and said with a smile, "It's nothing, you really don't have to be polite with me."    

    

"To you, this is a piece of cake, but to us, it's a life saving favor." Lu Dingquan grabbed Wu Tian's arm, "Come, let's go to my house. I have to thank you."    

    

"There's really no need …"    

    

"I must thank you." Lu Dingquan didn't say anything further and pulled Wu Tian's arm as they walked towards the bus stop.    

    

"I, this …" It was hard to refuse Wu Tian's kindness. He turned around and looked at Lu Xiaomei, "Actually, there's no need to thank me."    

    

"Since my grandfather wants you to come to my house, then don't decline." Having said so, Lu Xiaomei leaned her head over and whispered, "It seems that my grandfather really likes you. Later, help me persuade him."    

    

"Persuade what?"    

    

"I don't want him to come out and tell his fortune to anyone in the future to avoid being beaten to death."    

    

"Oh, okay!" Hearing this, Wu Tian didn't say anything more and followed the two of them towards the bus stop.    

    

The three of them took the No. 59 bus and arrived at the Sun City sector.    

    

"Lad, we'll be staying on the third floor. Let's go." Lu Dingquan took the lead and went upstairs after saying that.    

    

Even though he was quite old, his physique was very sturdy. He walked very fast and his steps were very steady.    

    

They arrived at the third floor very quickly. When the door was opened, there were all sorts of broken metal placed in the room. Most of them were retrieved from the garbage heap.    

    

There wasn't much furniture in the room, the cabinets were shabby, the lamps were rusty, and they looked old.    

    

"Sit down." After entering, Lu Dingquan greeted Wu Tian to his seat and then instructed Lu Xiaomei, "Mei, don't stand. Make tea for the guests."    

    

"En!"    

    

Lu Xiaomei nodded and started to make tea.    

    

After sitting on the shabby sofa, Wu Tian couldn't help but ask, "Oh yeah, where are Mei's parents?"    

    

"Sigh!"    

    

Lu Dingquan sighed lightly and said in a low voice, "When Mei was very young, her father passed away, so her mother ran away with the rich. I was the one who raised Mei."    

    

"Mei is really pitiful." Wu Tian couldn't help but feel pity in his heart when he heard this.    

    

"I, the old man, don't have the ability to earn money either. I can only rely on deceiving others to get some money. Renting a house here to let Mei go to school, living a tight life." Lu Dingquan felt sad when he said that.    

    

"So that's how it is." Wu Tian nodded in understanding.    

    

No wonder Lu Dingquan went out to cheat in order to help his granddaughter earn tuition and living expenses.    

    

"I'm already this old, so I don't have much ability. I can only make Mei suffer alongside me." Lu Dingquan gritted his teeth and said with heartache.    

    

"Mei should be glad to have such a good grandfather like you." Wu Tian smiled and comforted him.    

    

He was so old that he had raised his granddaughter for her to study. To be honest, it was not easy at all.    

    

"It's a good thing that Mei did her best. Not only did she learn well, she was also well-behaved and obedient. No matter what I did, it was worth it." The corner of Lu Dingquan's mouth raised and a gratified smile appeared on his aged face.    

    

At this moment, Lu Xiaomei brought a cup of steaming hot tea over, "Classmate Wu, drink some tea."    

    

"Thank you!" Wu Tian received the tea cup with both hands and said with a smile, "Don't bother, sit down."    

    

"En!" Lu Xiaomei nodded and sat down beside her grandfather. At the same time, she winked at Wu Tian.    

    

Wu Tian immediately understood. He put down the teacup and advised Lu Dingquan, "Old Master, you're already so old, don't go out and tell others your fortune."    

    

"How am I going to make money without this business?" Lu Dingquan gritted his teeth with a helpless look on his face.    

    

If he had the money to send his granddaughter to school, he naturally didn't want to go out and cheat.    

    

"You don't have to worry about money." Wu Tian took out a bank card from his pocket and placed it on the table, "The bank card has a little savings, enough for you to spend for a while."    

    

"That won't do."    

    

Before Lu Dingquan could say anything, Lu Xiaomei firmly objected, "We didn't give you any help, so we can't accept your money."    

    

"There isn't much money in the card. It's just a small token of my appreciation." Wu Tian couldn't help but want to help because of Lu Xiaomei's pitiful background.    

    

However, she didn't expect Lu Xiaomei to be so firm and adamant about not taking the card.    

    

"Even if we were to die of poverty or starvation, we wouldn't accept your charity." Lu Xiaomei raised her face, her tone firm.    

    

She was even a bit angry and felt that Wu Tian was humiliating her.    

    

"Without money, how will you survive?" Seeing Mei's determination, Wu Tian was moved.    

    

"Don't worry about that, I've already applied for a scholarship to the school. I don't need to worry about tuition fees in the second half of the year. Also, I can earn money from part-time jobs after school. It's enough for me to live with my grandfather." Lu Xiaomei said in a serious tone.    

    

"…"    

    

Wu Tian didn't say anything. Looking at this pretty and delicate girl in front of him, he was deeply touched.    

    

She didn't expect that this little girl would be so independent at such a young age. This kind of determination to not be afraid of difficulties impressed her.    

    

Just when the atmosphere was at a stalemate, Lu Dingquan couldn't help but say, "Lad, if you really want to help Mei, then be her boyfriend. That way, you can protect my Mei."    

    

"Grandfather, what are you saying!" Lu Xiaomei blushed as she glared at her grandfather with some anger in her eyes.    

    

She didn't know what was going on, but her grandpa was always talking nonsense and trying to get her to stay with Wu Tian.    

    

She had known Wu Tian for less than an hour, it was so awkward for her.    

    

"Grandpa was just joking, why are you still in a hurry!" Seeing his granddaughter angry, Lu Dingquan quickly changed his words.    

    

Lu Xiaomei gritted her teeth and warned her grandfather, "Grandpa, you're not allowed to make fun of this kind of thing in the future."    

    

"Alright, grandpa won't joke around in the future." Lu Dingquan stretched out his right hand and promised as if he swore.    

    

"Also, you are not allowed to go out and tell others your fortune."    

    

"Alright, I'll listen to you. From now on, I won't be counting my fortune." Lu Dingquan smiled and promised, "When I go out to pick up trash to earn some pocket money, that should be fine, right?"    

    

"You can do whatever you want, but you can't cheat."    

    

"Alright, I'll listen to you." Lu Dingquan promised her for a long time before he finally said to Lu Xiaomei, "Mei, hurry up and cook. Grandpa is hungry."    

    

"Then wait a moment, I'll go cook." Lu Xiaomei turned around and walked towards the kitchen after she finished her sentence.    

    

"Fried our family's sausage as well and make an egg soup. We'll leave Tian to have dinner at home."    

    

"Got it." After Lu Xiaomei answered, she busied herself in the kitchen.    

    

Lu Dingquan took out a bag of melon seeds from the cupboard and smiled at Wu Tian, "Come, let's eat the seeds."    

    

"You're too polite." Wu Tian smiled as he accompanied Old Master and ate the melon seeds.
