Chapter 20 It's really amazing to be rich.

Gu Suixing gave Lu Fengqing a deep look, then hugged the gift box and retreated to the women's restroom.

The person who came to see Lu Fengqing was none other than her ex-fiancé, Tang Xingzhou, with whom she had just broken off their engagement.

Lu Fengqing's eyelids twitched. "Is there something you need, Young Master Zhou?"

Tang Xingzhou's voice lowered, "Can't you really give me another chance?"

His absurd past was real, but his later desire to settle down and spend time with her was also real.

Although their engagement was over, he still couldn't give up.

He hadn't intended to cancel the engagement, but his mother insisted, and his father refused to help him. He had been extremely busy these past few days with several major projects that had been agreed upon but then changed at the last minute, and he couldn't get through to her on the phone. Tonight, his mother forcibly dragged him to this party, and he never expected to see her here, which was quite a pleasant surprise.

Lu Fengqing was silent for a moment, then whispered a reminder: "Last Christmas Eve, at the Chambord Hotel."

It wasn't that long ago, and the date and place were so specific, Tang Xingzhou quickly remembered it, and his face turned pale instantly.

Last Christmas Eve, Lu Yuhan suddenly came to him, saying that she wanted to say goodbye to the past and wanted to be with him one last time.

He was a playful person by nature. At that time, apart from thinking that Miss Lu was indeed very beautiful, he had no other feelings for her. He also harbored some resentment about being forced into the engagement, so he had a bit of a desire for revenge. In addition, Lu Yuhan had indeed been with him for a long time, so he softened his heart and agreed.

Strictly speaking, the night before last wasn't his first betrayal; it was last Christmas Eve.

Lu Fengqing said softly, "Xingzhou, we made a promise."

It was just a business marriage; she needed a marriage, while he was forced into it by his grandfather.

From the very beginning of their engagement, she made it clear to him that she didn't care what he did before, but if he wanted to live a good life with her, he had to be loyal to her; she wouldn't tolerate any infidelity. If he didn't want to live a good life, that was fine too; they could leave each other alone. But if things escalated and their elders found out, he would have to bear the consequences.

He made the choice first, so he can't blame her for being heartless.

Tang Xingzhou's expression turned completely gloomy.

After a long silence, he spoke in a hoarse voice, "I understand."

A faint phone vibration sounded, and a hint of impatience flashed across Tang Xingzhou's brows.

He ignored her, took out an exquisite box from his pocket, and shoved it, along with the paper bag in his hand, into Lu Fengqing's hands without saying a word. "Time was of the essence, and this was the only set I could find. Also, this is the wedding ring I ordered before. Although I won't need it anymore... I still wanted to give it to you."

Lu Fengqing instinctively tried to return the box.

Tang Xingzhou stepped back a few paces to avoid it, saying, "If you don't want to keep it, just throw it away."

"If only I had known..."

Tang Xingzhou paused, then left without saying anything more, giving Lu Fengqing no chance to refuse.

Lu Fengqing stared at the ring box in her hand for a long time, then flicked it with her index finger.

A diamond ring the size of a pigeon's egg appeared in his eyes.

The ring is also adorned with many small diamonds, making the whole ring look very sparkly.

A diamond ring worth millions was just given away like that; what a fool with all that money.

"Miss Lu." A waitress approached.

Lu Fengqing carefully put away the diamond ring. "Is there something you need?"

"Mr. Lu has reserved a room for you. Let me take you upstairs."

Lu Fengqing followed her upstairs, and only after they got out of the elevator did she realize that she had forgotten something.

Gu Suixing!

She forgot him in the women's restroom...

Lu Fengqing hesitated for a moment between going downstairs to find someone and changing into her dress first, and then chose the latter.

After the waiter leaves, enter the password to open the door.

Suddenly, a hand reached behind her, pressed against the door, and pushed it open.

Lu Fengqing looked at the hand in front of her, smelling the familiar scent emanating from the man, and was about to speak when she was suddenly bumped.

He was knocked into the room.

With a "click," the door closed.

A large hand reached out, took the dress bag from her hand, and tossed it aside.

When she tried to reach for the ring box again, Lu Fengqing dodged her and asked unhappily, "What are you doing?"

A deep male voice came from behind: "Throw the ring away."

Lu Fengqing: "If you throw it away, will you buy me a new one?"

Gu Suixing: "Buy it."

Lu Fengqing's smile froze.

Having money doesn't make you superior.

"We'll talk about it after you buy it."

Lu Fengqing walked to the bedside and opened the three gift boxes prepared by her second brother, her ex-fiancé, and her ex-boyfriend. She took out all the dresses and spread them out on the bed.

Men are mostly careless, but they can be attentive sometimes. None of the three dresses in front of her were cheaper than the one she was wearing, and wearing them wouldn't make her look inferior at all.

Adhering to the principles of "wearing the most beautiful" and "wearing the most expensive", Lu Fengqing's gaze fell on the red dress on the far right.

If I had to describe this red dress in one word, it would be: dazzling.

It sparkles and shines.

It's no exaggeration to say that she could wear this to a wedding.

Being rich is really amazing!

"Thank you, thank you Fourth Young Master, thank you Young Master, thank you President Gu, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to send me this dress, it's too much trouble for you, thank you so much, thank you so much, thank you so much... um!"

Lu Fengqing had just taken off her dirty dress when she suddenly felt a weight on her back.

She was thrown forward and pushed down onto the bed.

Before long, the dress that Tang Xingzhou had sent her was crumpled up.

Gu Suixing had no intention of actually doing anything.

He picked up a piece of silicone with his long, slender fingers. "What's this?"

Lu Fengqing glanced at the object, snatched it, slapped it against her chest, and said coldly, "Don't touch women's things!"

Gu Suixing lowered her eyes and glanced at him: "..."

Lu Fengqing dressed neatly, stood in front of the full-length mirror, and carefully looked at herself for more than ten minutes. Satisfied, she swayed her waist and left the room without looking back.

She didn't even greet the man behind her.

Gu Suixing stood still for a moment, then picked up the dirty dress that Lu Fengqing had just changed out of and threw it into a paper bag.

When Assistant Fang came in, she tossed him the paper bag and said, "Take this to Miss Chen."

...

If Miss Lu had attracted everyone's attention earlier, then her return to the banquet hall was stunning.

Wearing a long red dress, she was dazzling under the lights; both she and her clothes were incredibly beautiful.

The daughters and socialites who were originally waiting to see Lu Fengqing make a fool of herself looked at her with a mixture of jealousy and envy.

Everyone knows that formal wear is expensive and can only be worn a few times, making it very low in cost-effectiveness. Wasn't the Lu family supposed to be going bankrupt? Yet they can still afford to provide their young lady with a million-dollar formal dress for such a small banquet, and even have replacements.

Is the Lu family just putting on a brave face, or do they have some other tricks up their sleeve?

Everyone had different thoughts at that moment.

Some people who were initially skeptical of the Lu family and intended to distance themselves from them hesitated.

Lu Fengqing was unaware of what these people were thinking, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. Led by the waiter, she arrived at the spot with her name tag on it.

The seats in the hall were all arranged in advance. The brand arranged for Lu Fengqing to be in the first row, which was closest to the stage. Although it wasn't in the exact center, it was only slightly off-center, which shows that the brand valued this young lady quite a bit.

As soon as Lu Fengqing sat down, someone immediately took the initiative to talk to her.

"It's been a long time, Miss Lu."

Lu Fengqing smiled enigmatically, "Didn't we just meet last month?"

The woman smiled and pursed her lips. "Miss Lu's stunning beauty is so captivating, it feels like three autumns have passed without seeing her for a day."

Others followed suit.

The compliments arrived late, but Lu Fengqing still accepted them all in a good mood.

"It's a pity Miss Lu came back late, otherwise I could have seen that young master of the Cai family, that nouveau riche Cai family. I don't know who beat him up, his face was all black and blue, I almost couldn't help but laugh out loud."

Lu Fengqing thought to herself that it was no pity, since she was the one who beat him up.
