Chapter 5 — Hao Mon Swap

“You can add more people.” “On what basis was he added as soon as he arrived?” The homeroom teacher looked at her, "Based on performance." Hua Vien Vien muttered softly: "It's too much." Luc Thua Da walked in from the back door, and the whole class immediately fell silent. He glanced at the scoreboard, "Top of the block?" No one spoke up. He walked up to my desk, "What did you say last night?" I raised my head, "Good performance, change room." He slammed the scoreboard on my desk, "You really dare to ask for it." “You agreed.” "What's the use if I agree? The house is not mine." “Then ask the lady.” He stared at me for a few seconds, then suddenly picked up the phone to call Mrs. Luc. The phone was connected, he turned on the speaker. “Mom, he got first place in the grade.” Mrs. Luc's side of the line was silent for a moment, "Really?" The homeroom teacher continued, "Mrs. Luc, it's true. Ninh Duong's achievements are extremely excellent." Mrs. Luc's voice immediately became gentle, "Ning Duong, you did very well." I said: “Thank you, ma'am.” Mrs. Luc paused for a moment, "Let's talk about the room matter when we go home tonight." Luc Thua Da hung up the phone and provoked me, "Have you heard? Let's see." Lam Tri Ha finally found her smile again, "Auntie must have made her own arrangements. Ninh Duong, don't be too impatient." Hua Vien Vien was impatient, "Obviously I promised." I folded up the scorecard and stuffed it into my bag, "It's okay." Luc Thua Da chuckled, "It's good to know it's okay." I looked at him, "I just feel that the Luc family may not always keep their word." His face darkened, "Say it again." “I'm done talking.” When school ended, the Luc family's car arrived. This time, the driver personally opened the back seat door for me. Luc Thua Da stood next to him, his face unsightly. Lam Tri Ha smiled and said: "Thua Da, I'll take your car home today, okay? I want to visit my aunt." Just as Luc Thua Da was about to accept, the driver cautiously spoke up, "Young master, the lady told us to only take the young lady and the young master home today." The smile on Lam Tri Ha's face stiffened. Luc Thua Da frowned, "She comes to my house and still needs an uncle to take care of her?" The driver's forehead was sweating, "Madam, you specifically advised me." I sat in the car. Before the car door closed, I heard Hua Vien Vien behind me softly say: "Vien Vien is so happy, today Vien Vien can eat another bowl of rice." I couldn't help but glanced at my friend. My friend immediately waved goodbye to me. The car drove back to the Luc family's house. Mrs. Luc was already waiting in the living room. This time, on the tea table there was an additional plate of peeled fruits. “Ning Duong, come here.” I walked over. Mrs. Luc looked at the transcript twice, "Before you were at the orphanage, who taught you to study?" “School teacher.” “Why don't you study more?” "No." She didn't seem to believe it, "Can an orphanage school teach first class?" Luc Thua Da sat next to him, "Mom, he's probably just good at exams." Mrs. Luc glared at him, "If you were good at exams, I wouldn't have to work so hard." Luc Thua Da said nothing more. Mrs. Luc looked at me, "I've already thought about the room. You should still stay on the third floor first." I raised my eyes. She said: "It's not a punishment for you. Thua Da, this child has an impulsive personality, and quarrels are likely to happen around you. I'll have someone redecorate the third floor. If you need anything, just tell the housekeeper." Luc Thua Da proudly leaned back on the sofa. I asked: "So what about last night's contract?" The smile on Mrs. Luc's face faded, "Ning Duong, home is not a school, achievements cannot be exchanged for everything." "If you say something, you may not keep it." “Do you have to understand it like that?” “I just remembered it.” The way Mrs. Luc looked at me for the first time carried clear dissatisfaction. “You are very smart, but smart people should know when to bow their heads.” I said: “I know.” Mrs. Luc was a little more satisfied, "Next week there will be a family banquet, all of the Luc family will come. I will officially introduce you. Don't be rude then, don't let people laugh at you." Luc Thua Da interjected, “Mom, what kind of personality?

taking him out will only cause him to lose face." Mrs. Luc did not deny it, just said: "So I have to remind him." I looked at Luc Thua Da, "You reminded me?" He laughed, “Are you scared?” I said: "I'm afraid you're wrong." Just as Luc Thua Da was about to get angry, butler Chu walked in from outside the door. “Madam, the old house just sent an invitation. The old lady said, the family banquet will be held at the old house. By the way, Miss Ninh Duong will recognize everyone." Mrs. Luc's face turned serious, "What did the Old Lady herself say?" "Yes." Luc Thua Da also sat up straight. The old lady of the Luc family was in charge of the old house, and Mr. Luc had to respect her three times when she met him. In my previous life, after my sister entered the Luc family, she was most afraid of meeting the old lady. Because the old lady doesn't accept her crying. Grandma only looks at bravery. Mrs. Luc looked at me, "Ning Duong, the old house has many rules. These past few days I've been following the etiquette teacher to learn properly."
