Chapter 86: The Arrogant Brother Lu

“You only had noodles?”

Lu Ran looked at Lu Sheng and asked, “Do you want to eat anything else?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “It’s my first time back in East City. I don’t know what’s good.”

“Yes.”

Lu Ran nodded. “Wait for me for a while. I’ll bring you there once I’ve returned after packing my things.”

Then, he carried his things and left.

There were eight of them staying in the same dormitory. Everyone had left except for two people.

There were only thirty students in this private school.

This was only after Duan Zhen, a young scholar, had appeared. Before this, they only recruited a dozen people.

There were a lot of people living in this dormitory. Some were poor, while others were rich.

Thankfully, everyone got along well.

“Brother Lu is back.”

Yu Yang smiled and stood up.

He was the eldest son of the Yu family. He was also Yu Mingyue’s older brother. He had a gentle personality.

The other was the son of the shopkeeper in Tian Xiang Restaurant, Mu Yan. He was more lively.

Seeing Lu Ran’s return, they hurried over to snatch the items from his hands.

“I heard a beautiful lady came to find Brother Lu. Is this the lady’s gift to you?”

Lu Ran seemed to be used to his actions and explained, “The lady Brother Mu is talking about is my sister.”

“So it’s your sister!”

Mu Yan smiled and untied the cloth. He could not help but exclaim, “Wow!”

He looked at Lu Ran in shock and clucked his tongue. “Oh, Brother Lu. You’ve tricked us so badly!”

Yu Yang looked over suspiciously. When he saw the contents of the bag, he looked at Lu Ran in shock as well.

In order to save money, Lu Ran usually could not even bear to eat meat. Most of the time, he gnawed on steamed buns and some salted vegetables. He could not even bear to change his brush if its fur was lost.

Now, not only were there a few more sets of silk clothes, bu he was also using brush, ink, and inkslab that cost a few hundred taels.

Yu Yang smiled and said, “Brother Lu, you’ve really amazed the world with a single brilliant feat!”

In this dormitory, besides Yu Yang, Mu Yan was the only one who could afford these items.

He did not expect the thrifty Lu Ran to be willing to buy these.

Lu Ran frowned and looked at the duo in confusion.

“What are you talking about?”

Why did he not understand?

“Still pretending?” Mu Yan snorted coldly. “This is one of the finest brushes. It must cost at least a hundred taels. Also, this inkslab would cost at least three hundred taels. This ink would be at least a few dozen taels. Brother Lu, you’re too generous.”

Lu Ran frowned. “Are you sure you’re not joking?”

Where did Lu Sheng get so much money to buy such expensive things for him?

“Joking? What joke?”

Mu Yan looked at him in surprise. “You really don’t know the price of these items?”

Yu Yang also looked at Lu Ran in surprise. When he saw his frown, he knew that Lu Ran really did not know.

“Brother Lu, who gave you these items?” Yu Yang probed carefully.

“These clothes are made of silk. They are worth at least a few dozen taels each in a clothing store.”

Mu Yan picked up a shirt and said to Lu Ran.

“I’m going out for a while.”

Lu Ran left the dormitory with his items expressionlessly, ignoring Mu Yan’s calls.

Lu Sheng, Lu Jiang, and Lu Xin were waiting outside the door. When they saw Lu Ran walking towards them expressionlessly with his things, they could not help but sigh.

It seemed like their brother had seen the contents and guessed the price.

Indeed, Lu Ran pulled her aside immediately and asked coldly, “Where did you get these items from? Also, why did you go to the Lin Jiang Mansion?”

Why would a young lady who had not even visited Huang Yang Town much visit the Lin Jiang Mansion for no reason? She even brought back so many precious items?!
