Chapter 430 -430: Who Loves You More Between Us Two?
Qiao Yun said to them, “Thank you for coming.”
“We’re family, coming to support you is only natural.”
Lu Zhanxing, wearing a mask, spoke with a muffled voice.
If Qiao Yun had not objected, he would have loved to whirl her around in a hug.
“From now on, you’re not allowed to thank us,” Su Mian seized the opportunity to make a request.
“Okay,” Qiao Yun agreed.
After all the other family members had spoken, Lu Jingzhi softly said, “Congratulations, little sister.”
Recalling the past when he had doubted his sister’s academic abilities, Lu Jingzhi felt as though reality had harshly slapped him again.
Qiao Yun nodded at Lu Jingzhi.
Seeing this, Lu Jingzhi actually felt that being ignored wasn’t so bad, it was certainly better than not wanting to see him at all.
He was really losing his status as the big brother…
Li Hanzhou had also made his way backstage after the competition ended.
The Lu family was quite surprised to see him.
“Elder Li, what brings you here?” the elder of the family stepped forward to greet him.
Despite his youth, Li Hanzhou held a significant position in Shangjing City; even the elder did not dare assume seniority over him.
With a smile playing at his lips, Li Hanzhou said, “I came to watch the kids’ competition, and as an elder, you can just call me by my name.”
Hearing this, the elder’s face showed unmistakable surprise, and looking at Elder Li walking up to Qiao Yun, he remarked to his eldest son, “I didn’t expect Elder Li to be so approachable. He even came specially to the competition to support Qiaoqiao.”
Lu Rui agreed, “Qiaoqiao and the Li family’s young miss are good friends. Elder Li must be fond of the whole family. With him being so kind to Qiaoqiao, we really ought to thank him.”
They saw nothing wrong with Li Hanzhou being nice to Qiao Yun; after all, Qiao Yun was so cute and lovable that everyone would want to treat her nicely.
Lu Zhanxing, watching his family compliment Li Hanzhou, couldn’t help but twitch his lips.
Wake up, he has designs on your sister, of course he’s being nice to you!
Lu Zhanxing glanced at his sister and noticed that she did not reject Li Hanzhou’s approaches, so he had to suppress his slight dissatisfaction.
Li Miao rushed over to Qiao Yun, even more excited than the person involved, “The campus network is all discussing you now, classmates are all so surprised, you’ve got skills!”
Qiao Yun, used to such things, didn’t find it exciting.
Li Hanzhou smiled at Qiao Yun: “You’re very impressive.”
Qiao Yun nodded, “Yes, I am impressive.”
Li Hanzhou raised an eyebrow slightly, “You won a prize, why aren’t you excited?”
Qiao Yun spoke truthfully, “I was bound to win, why be excited?”
Implicitly, she meant that the championship was expected; there was no need for excitement.
Li Hanzhou looked at Qiao Yun’s clean, innocent face, feeling a slight itch in his hand.
…
Originally, Li Hanzhou had plans to take Qiao Yun out to celebrate, but now that the Lu family had also come, his plan was destined to fall through.
The Lu family politely invited Li Hanzhou.
Li Hanzhou declined, he had his boundaries, it wasn’t proper for an outsider to intrude on a family gathering.
Um…
Li Hanzhou thought to himself.
He could join them once he became a family member.
The Lu family, unaware of Li Hanzhou’s thoughts, commended him for his excessive politeness and grace, truly fitting for a man who could lead the Li Group.
Lu Zhanxing: “…” felt tired again (`Д´*)
Qiao Yun quietly tugged at Li Hanzhou’s sleeve, and when he looked down at her, she spoke with a muted expression, “Next time, I’ll treat you.”
Li Hanzhou smiled again, Qiao Yun always made him laugh, “All right, I’ll wait for you.”
That set Qiao Yun’s mind at ease.
It wouldn’t be right for her to abandon her family and go celebrate just because her friend came to watch the competition.
Afterward, Qiao Yun asked the Lu Family to wait for a bit, since there was an encore event.
Once the event was over, they unexpectedly ran into Qing University.
Having been ridiculed yesterday, and now having clinched the championship, Lu Shiran was very much on a high, “Yo, isn’t this the runner-up?”

The man was livid, “What did you say?”
Lu Shiran blinked, his tone innocent, “Didn’t you guys get second place? Doesn’t that make you the runner-up?”
The man’s eyes blazed with anger, “Don’t be so smug.”
“Hey, I am smug. What can you do about it? I’m not just rich, I also have the championship,” Lu Shiran said, looking at him as if he were simple, “You couldn’t even beat my sister.”
It was the first time the man had been scorned like this, and he wanted to retort, but Lu Shiran didn’t even glance at them as he brushed past.
The man spit out in disdain, “It’s not like they won the championship on their own merit, what’s there to boast about?”
He Jianyan hadn’t spoken throughout, her mood was terribly foul. After Qiao Yun won the championship, she had totally stolen her thunder.
Hearing the man say this, she scoffed, “What’s the use of saying this behind their backs? Why don’t you go tell it to the organizing committee?”
At her words, the man thought there might be some sense to it.
Regardless of the outcomes of any complaints, it wasn’t a loss for him.
He believed he wasn’t the only one thinking this way; there must be others who felt the same.
…
Yu Fan gave Lu Shiran a thumbs up, “Although I’m not fond of your boastful attitude, I like it.”
Lu Shiran replied, “He lost. If I’m not boastful now, when should I be?”
“It’s all thanks to our ancestor Qiao,” Cheng Yi felt a bit regretful, “After this competition, we’ll be going separate ways.”
After all, being in different schools, it’d likely be difficult to meet.
Qiao Yun said, “If you don’t understand anything, ask me in the group.”
Instantly, Yu Fan and Cheng Yi became excited, repeatedly thanking Qiao Yun.
Qiao Yun accepted their thanks.
For the nation’s budding scholars who loved learning, she was still willing to occasionally water them, watching them grow strong.
…
After the competition officially ended, the family went to the old house to celebrate.
With the two youngsters doing so well, the elders were naturally happy, and they inevitably drank a few glasses at the dinner table.
Lu Shiran too sipped a little, he was of age, and drinking was permissible.
But his tolerance was poor, and after a couple of drinks, he became woozy and, grabbing Qiao Yun’s hand, he slurred, “Sister, if it hadn’t been for your help, we wouldn’t have won. I really love you so much…”
Lu Zhanxing grabbed Qiao Yun’s hand, “Move aside, what’s it to you, I’m the one who loves sister the most.”
“I am!” Lu Shiran loudly protested.
“I’m the real brother.”
“Well, isn’t a cousin brother a real brother too?”
Qiao Yun: “…”
“Sister, which one of us loves you more?”
Caught in the middle, Qiao Yun struggled to choose and fairly said, “You both treat me very well.”
Lu Shiran and Lu Zhanxing were dissatisfied with this response.
Lu Jingzhi, with a stern face, grabbed the collars of the two drunkards, “Stop annoying sister.”
Qiao Yun, observing the lively family, sipped her juice and contentedly squinted her eyes.
She thought.
Since it was impossible to get an answer, she might as well not dwell on it for now. At least, she was still willing to stay in this home.
Since it had gotten late, the family decided to rest in the old house.
However, Lu Shiran’s excitement hadn’t settled down yet, and a splash of cold water suddenly came his way, causing him to panic completely.
