Chapter 2: The woman engaged to the young master of the state is Miss Lu.

Mr. Li was so afraid of offending Gu Suixing that he didn't even have time to say goodbye to Lu Fengqing before he practically scrambled away.

Seeing that the young master was still standing there and showed no sign of leaving, the manager tactfully instructed a waiter to come and clear the table and bring out fresh coffee.

Lu Fengqing's eyelids twitched. Just as she stood up, two tall and burly bodyguards immediately blocked her way.

"……"OK.

Lu Fengqing sat down again.

She wanted to see what he was really up to.

After the manager left, the assistant and bodyguard who had followed Gu Suixing in earlier also quietly withdrew.

The man rolled up the cuffs of his shirt, leaned back lazily in his chair, exuding an air of nobility and elegance. "When did Miss Lu change her surname to Huo?"

Lu Fengqing glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Today."

Huo Huaisui's aunt found him a blind date, but Huo Huaisui couldn't refuse. He was also busy finishing his manuscript these days and didn't have time to meet him, so he asked his aunt to come and help him refuse. He didn't expect to run into him here.

After not seeing him for many years, the man seemed to have changed little except for looking more mature.

It's still that same face that attracts attention, and that same unrestrained attitude.

Gu Suixing looked up. "Don't you want to see me?"

Lu Fengqing was taken aback for a moment, then said, "No."

That's the truth.

The man in front of her was not only her ex, but also her childhood friend and soulmate.

There was no animosity or grudge between them. They had known each other since childhood, and even if they couldn't be lovers, they could continue to be ordinary friends.

Gu Suixing chuckled, "Do you remember what I said back then?"

A grand piano sits on a small stage in the center of the café, and melodious music flows from the pianist's fingertips.

Lu Fengqing met the man's dark gaze, the music in her ears gradually faded away, and long-forgotten memories surfaced in her mind.

"Break up? Okay."

He, still looking like a teenager, pressed himself against her fiercely, his hands gripping her waist so tightly it seemed he wanted to break her waist.

"I'd like to see who else you could have in this life but me!"

Not long after, I heard the news that he had gone abroad.

Many years passed after that.

City A is only so big. As long as they are still in the same circle, they will meet again someday. She just didn't expect that day to come so soon.

Why did he suddenly bring this up? What is he trying to achieve?

Gu Suixing smiled faintly, "It seems you still remember."

Lu Fengqing's eyes flickered slightly, and she turned her head to look elsewhere.

Gu Suixing had arranged to meet someone here, so she didn't keep her any longer.

After Lu Fengqing left, Assistant Fang came forward and whispered, "Young Master Zhou heard that you've returned to the country and just called to say that it's his birthday tomorrow and he's inviting some friends to sing and drink tonight. He's asking if you'd like to go?"

Gu Suixing paused for a moment, not saying whether he would go or not, but simply asked, "How's the investigation going?"

Assistant Fang replied, "Young Master Zhou and Miss Lu did have a relationship, but for some reason, it was Miss Lu who ended up getting engaged to Young Master Zhou."

Gu Suixing's eyes were as dark as ink. As if thinking of something, a smile appeared on his handsome face again. "I'm going to the Huo family tomorrow night, so I won't be able to attend Young Master Zhou's birthday celebration. But I can prepare a big gift for him."

-

Why did she come over too?

In the dimly lit private room, young men and women sat around a marble table playing cards, their gazes occasionally drifting toward the woman sitting in the corner, each with their own thoughts.

Miss Lu is still here, and Brother Zhou actually invited Lu Yuhan as well. He really doesn't care about appearances.

Another game ended, and someone suddenly joked, "When is Brother Zhou going to treat everyone to his wedding?"

Miss Lu is beautiful, and many people like her, but very few dare to marry her or pursue her.

The reason is simple: this young lady spends far too much money. Without a particularly wealthy family, it would be impossible to support her.

According to normal thinking, even if the Tang family intended to form a marriage alliance with the Lu family, they should have chosen the second young lady of the Lu family. Unexpectedly, they actually took a liking to the eldest young lady of the Lu family, which is something that everyone has been unable to understand.

Tang Xingzhou smiled faintly, "It depends on when she's willing to marry me."

Lu Fengqing was lost in thought when she noticed Tang Xingzhou's gaze. She smiled and looked back at him, "Let's see how you do."

"Haha, then Brother Zhou, you'd better do your best. We're looking forward to drinking your wedding wine."

"I've already prepared the money for the wedding gift, and I'm just waiting for the wedding invitation."

Lu Yuhan listened to the cheers from all around her and looked at the two people who looked like a perfect couple. Her hands, which were holding wine glasses, were slightly white from the force.

Lu Fengqing leaned close to Tang Xingzhou's ear and whispered, "I'm not feeling well, I'll go back first."

Tang Xingzhou knew she didn't like this kind of place, so he assumed it was just an excuse and didn't ask further. "Do you want me to take you?"

"No need. You guys have fun." Lu Fengqing picked up her things and stood up.

Lu Yuhan's gaze lingered on the empty wine glass in front of Lu Fengqing for a few seconds before she asked loudly, "Sister, are you going back?"

Everyone turned to look at Lu Fengqing.

Zhou Ge invited everyone out for his birthday, but his wife left so soon?

Tang Xingzhou waved his hand, "Don't worry about her, let's do our own thing."

No one asked any further questions, and the others continued singing or playing cards.

Lu Yuhan smiled slightly, immediately picked up her phone, and sent out the message she had prepared beforehand.
