Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 333

“I say, you must have something on your mind. You’re being all vague, what are you embarrassed to say?

What are you thinking about? I can probably guess. Look at you, acting all sneakily. Have you run into some trouble?”

Sheng Fei crossed her arms, suspecting that Lu Ting might have borrowed money recently.

Maybe he was hesitating because he wanted to ask her for a loan.

If Lu Ting knew what she was thinking, he would surely deny it. How could he possibly be in debt?

But right now, Sheng Fei wasn’t concerned about that. She didn’t seem particularly interested in him.

Her gaze toward him felt similar to how she looked at the children, it was never with any obsession. Lu Ting felt at a loss for words.

Sheng Fei thought maybe Lu Ting was facing some difficulties lately and wanted to borrow money, or perhaps he was making more money than before and was considering something else with her, but that didn’t seem right.

Lu Ting was quite capable of earning money. She had never heard of him needing to borrow it, let alone looking like this.

Was it something other than borrowing money? Or did Lu Ting met someone he liked recently and wanted her to help him connect with her?

Sheng Fei pondered, but she hadn’t heard of Lu Ting having a crush on anyone in the original book. If that was the case, what was going on?

Could it be that Lu Ting had encountered his first love? But the book never mentioned Lu Ting’s romantic experience.

He had always been taking care of five children, earning money, and there wasn’t even a female mosquito around him. All his partners were men.

For someone as outstanding as Lu Ting to be so hesitant must mean he was either in debt or owed someone a favor.

Was it a favor he owed? Sheng Fei thought about this endlessly, feeling curious as she looked at Lu Ting.

“Sheng Fei, I want to tell you…”

Before Lu Ting could finish, Sheng Fei interrupted him, leaving him speechless.

“So you want to tell me you have your eye on some girl, and you want me to help you connect with her?

Look at how shy you are. This is the first time I see you having some hesitation. Come on, if you like someone, I can help you find out more about her.

Don’t worry, you’re so good to the children and take care of me too. We’re family, and we should help each other out. When it comes to women, I know best.”

“Ah.”

Lu Ting didn’t expect Sheng Fei to guess that he liked someone else. Since she was already on that track, Lu Ting decided to play along and nodded.

“Didn’t think you’d guess it right.”

“So you really have your eyes on a girl? Wow, I didn’t think you actually had someone in mind. Who is she? Tell me.

Well, how about you tell me which family it is? Is she from the county or our village? Just let me know who you like, I can help you go and find out.”

For some reason, when Lu Ting admitted it, Sheng Fei felt a pang in her heart, a slight heaviness.

Before she could guess that feeling, it faded away, so she didn’t think much of it.

“Good!”

Since their last conversation, Sheng Fei had been paying more attention to Lu Ting. However, since Lu Ting wouldn’t say which girl he liked, Sheng Fei could only wait and see.
