章節 14: 011: Can't even recognize all 26 letters of the alphabet!_1
```
Ou Tinglan truly looked down on Lu Ye.
She also believed that it would be difficult for Lu Ye to make a comeback, which is why she dared to mock him so undisguisedly.
In modern times, young people who wish to make it in the world must rely either on family background or on connections and education.
Unfortunately,
Lu Ye had neither.
Moreover, in Ou Tinglan's view, being liked by someone as disgusting as Lu Ye was a disgrace to her.
She came from a prominent family.
Having attended various professional courses for young ladies since childhood, she was familiar with all sorts of tea ceremonies and etiquette, spoke four languages, and could dance dozens of styles—all to marry a big shot at the top of the pyramid someday.
What was Lu Ye in comparison?
Ou Tinglan had someone she liked.
Although they had never met, she always followed her idol's footsteps.
Her idol was a famous French tycoon, Mr. K.
This Mr. K often ranked in the top three of the global rich list.
He was just too low-key!
He rarely made public appearances.
Information about him was even scarcer.
The only well-known fact was that,
Mr. K was from Hua Country.
And his ancestral home was in Qing City.
Ou Tinglan was born in Qing City, so she always felt that she had a deep connection with Mr. K.
If she had the chance to meet Mr. K,
she was sure she could make him fall in love with her.
In the face of Ou Tinglan's teasing, Lu Ye's expression remained indifferent, accepting everything as it was.
The bicycle repairman's mirror was indeed useful.
In less than ten minutes,
it had revealed the true nature of the granddaughter-in-law Old Madam Lu fancied.
Suddenly, Lu Ye looked up nonchalantly and picked up his coffee, "Then I wish Miss Ou all the best in finding someone who matches you well!"
No sooner had he spoken,
than An Ya, Ou Tinglan's good friend, stood up from the next table and pointed at Lu Ye:
"Lu Ye, you should take a look at yourself in the mirror! I don't know when Lan Lan will find her lifelong partner, but I do know, you're definitely not worthy of her!"
Having said that, An Ya grabbed Ou Tinglan's hand, "Lan Lan, let's go."
Ou Tinglan took a hundred-dollar bill out of her wallet, "I'll pay for the coffee today."
As for Lu Ye, the unwanted wretch, he probably couldn't even afford coffee.
If Old Master Lu and Grandma Lu truly regarded him as their own grandson, they wouldn't have let him spend his days fixing bicycles on the street!
Lu Ye watched their departing figures with a faint smile on his lips.
Human nature,
it just can't stand the test.
--
As soon as they stepped out of the café, An Ya couldn't help but complain, "Have the Lu Family gone mad? To set you up with Lu Ye for a blind date! They should weigh their own status."
What was Lu Ye, anyway?
Nothing but a lump of mud.
It wasn't just Ou Tinglan who looked down on someone like him; even she couldn't stand him.
Ou Tinglan smiled lightly, "Alright, alright, don't be angry. It was Grandma Lu who arranged for Mrs. Yang to come to my house with the proposal. My dad didn't want to refuse Mrs. Yang outright, so he let me go through the motions."
The Yang Family was also one of Qing City's wealthy clans.
Since the Ou Family and the Yang Family had business dealings, and it was Mrs. Yang who personally asked, Ou Shizhen naturally couldn't refuse.
Hearing this, An Ya was even more speechless, "Doesn't Mrs. Yang know Lu Ye's status? Isn't this the same as insulting someone?"
Two people of unequal status shouldn't be set up on a blind date together.
It's too demeaning!
Ou Tinglan continued, "Mrs. Yang is using me to repay a favor!"
"What do you mean?" asked An Ya.
Ou Tinglan narrowed her eyes, "When Mr. Yang was in trouble back then, it was Old Master Lu who helped him out. Now that Grandma Lu needs a favor from Mrs. Yang, she certainly can't refuse."
An Ya snorted coldly, "Mrs. Yang is really lowering herself!"
Using Ou Tinglan to repay a favor.
At that moment, An Ya added, "Oh right, Lan Lan, have you heard?"
"Heard what?"
"About the Zhang Family!" An Ya said excitedly, "Don't you know?"
```
"Are you talking about that illegitimate daughter of the Zhang Family?"
These days, the entire circle of the wealthy was abuzz with the news.
The first talented Miss Zhang Xianxian actually had a little village girl as a sister!
Isn't that a huge joke?
An Ya nodded repeatedly.
After a moment, she continued, "What was the head of the Zhang Family thinking? To actually fancy a rural woman and even have an illegitimate daughter! On Miss Zhang's birthday banquet, my mom was also there, and she said that the illegitimate daughter even insisted on taking Old Madam Zhang for a paternity test!"
"And I also heard that the illegitimate daughter is just a village girl who can't even recognize all 26 letters of the alphabet, she's simply incomparable to Miss Zhang!"
Can't even recognize all 26 letters of the alphabet?
Upon hearing this, Ou Tinglan widened her eyes, "Is it really that exaggerated?"
"How can it not be?" An Ya went on, "You're not unaware of how backward the countryside is! Unlike us, who've been attending various classes since we were young, with access to famous teachers! Not to mention 26 letters of the alphabet, I bet she can't even read 'The Difficulty of the Shu Road' fluently!"
With so many obscure words in "The Difficulty of the Shu Road," it'd be odd if a mere village girl could recognize them all.
Ou Tinglan laughed and said, "No wonder she'd rather kneel on the ground and lose her dignity than leave."
The Zhang Family is Qing City's First Prominent Family.
Who wouldn't want such boundless wealth?
"But in the end, she was driven out by the Zhang Family. I heard that when the village girl was driven out, she even declared that in three years, she would make everyone unable to climb up to her level!"
At these words, Ou Tinglan laughed lightly.
--
Lu Ye also left the cafe, put on his wireless earphones, mounted his bicycle, and headed for the repair shop.
What a coincidence.
The repair shop and the route of Ou Tinglan and her friends were the same.
Seeing Lu Ye's back, Ou Tinglan frowned slightly.
How disgusting.
An Ya was speechless as well, "How did he follow us here? Lan Lan, let's take another road!"
Ou Tinglan nodded, turning with An Ya to walk in another direction.
After a few steps, she couldn't help but look back to check if Lu Ye had started to follow them again.
This kind of stalker is really terrifying!
Ten minutes later.
Lu Ye arrived at the repair shop.
The door of the repair shop was open.
Shi Wenchen leaned against the door out of boredom.
As soon as Shi Wenchen saw Lu Ye, he immediately spit out his chewing gum, "Boss, you're finally here!"
"What happened?" Lu Ye asked with his lips barely parted.
Shi Wenchen continued, "There's trouble from Country P."
Hearing this, Lu Ye was not surprised and calmly locked up his bike, "Find time to take a trip over there."
"Okay."
Shi Wenchen then asked, "Boss, where did you just go?"
"Blind date."
Shi Wenchen's eyes flashed with a gossiping look, "Really? Who's our future sister-in-law?"
He had not expected their boss would need to go on blind dates.
Lu Ye spoke indifferently, "She wasn't interested in me."
Shi Wenchen's eyes widened even more!
Like brass bells!
Who was it?
To actually not be interested in their boss.
Just wait, she'll have days of regret in the future!
--
The next day.
It was the day Lin Guixiang and her daughter were to treat guests to express their gratitude to everyone.
Early in the morning, Lin Guixiang got up to cook.
She thought she had got up very early, but to her surprise, Lin Wu was already up when she got up.
She was under the desk lamp, taking apart a cellphone.
On the table was a heap of broken parts.
Next to it was an old green-covered book, and although Lin Guixiang was illiterate, she still made out that it was a foreign book.
Lin Guixiang looked at her with a puzzled expression on her face, "Xiao Wu, why did you take apart the phone like this?"
"It's broken, I'm fixing it," Lin Wu said.
Lin Wu spoke casually, but Lin Guixiang swallowed hard, wondering if it could still be fixed after being disassembled to this extent.
