Chapter 22 Am I really that shameful?

Lu Fengqing gathered up the bank cards and various contract documents scattered on the floor. Remembering that she hadn't replied to Bald Little Tiger a few days ago, she switched to WeChat and saw that Bald Little Tiger had sent her quite a few messages since then.

[Bald Little Tiger: I didn't really want to go, but the company offered such a high annual salary and great benefits, so I couldn't resist.]

[Bald Little Tiger: Bro, where are you? Did you reply to me telepathically again?]

[Bald Little Tiger: Holy crap, you might not believe it, but our boss is seriously young and handsome!]

[Bald Little Tiger: I heard he's not married yet, and doesn't even have a girlfriend.]

[Bald Little Tiger: If I were a woman, I would definitely pursue him]

[Bald Little Tiger: Our company is still hiring, in City A. Hey bro, wanna come?]

I'm not going.

Just as Lu Fengqing finished replying with her mind, a phone call came in.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Lu Fengqing instantly sat up straight, silently counted to ten in her mind, and slowly answered the phone, "Hello—who is this?"

A familiar male voice came through: "Where are you?"

As Lu Fengqing listened to the voice, she suddenly remembered when she first entered university. This person gave a speech as a representative of the freshmen at the opening ceremony. After the opening ceremony, he dominated all the forums in the university town with his voice. One of the posts discussed his voice.

The girls said his voice was very nice, the kind that would make you pregnant just by listening to it.

...It's impossible for me to get pregnant, no matter how much I listen to it, it won't make me pregnant, but I'm really getting agitated.

Gu Suixing: "Hmm?"

Lu Fengqing rubbed her ears. "At home."

Gu Suixing: "Come pick me up after get off work."

Lu Fengqing was filled with questions. "Where's Assistant Fang?"

Gu Suixing glanced at Assistant Fang standing in front of the desk and lied through her teeth: "He's busy and not here."

Lu Fengqing felt it was better to discuss important matters in person, so she agreed, "I'll be there now. Send me your location."

Gu Suixing sounded a little surprised, "Never been to the Gu Group before?"

Lu Fengqing asked innocently, "What would I be doing there if I had nothing to do?"

Upon receiving the location sent by Gu Suixing, Lu Fengqing threw down the cushion she was holding, jumped off the sofa, and went into the dressing room.

An hour later, Lu Fengqing appeared downstairs at the Gu Group building in his Landwind and the Lamborghini.

Lu Fengqing parked her car, took off her sunglasses (used for showing off), and texted a certain old man: [I've arrived.]

Ten minutes later, Mr. Gu opened the passenger door and got in.

Gu Suixing glanced at the time. "It's a little earlier than I expected."

Lu Fengqing pretended not to hear, "Where are you going?"

He dared to say that if she sent him back, she would definitely smash him to death with a high heel.

In order to pick him up, she gave the delivery guy the takeout she had ordered for free.

Gu Suixing: Where do you want to go?

Lu Fengqing said in a serious tone, "I want to go to the beach and throw you into the sea to feed the fish, is that okay?"

Gu Suixing made a "please" gesture.

Lu Fengqing still needed his help, so of course she couldn't just throw him to feed the fish. Instead, she took him to a private restaurant with decent food.

As soon as she parked the car, Lu Fengqing spotted a familiar figure.

Her older brother, Lu Fenghe.

Lu Fengqing shuddered.

Reversing, turning around, and stepping on the gas—all done in one smooth motion.

"Beautiful!" Lu Fengqing couldn't help but praise herself, "As expected of you, Lu Niannian, next year's F2 championship is definitely yours."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Gu Suixing asked, "Should I ask you to film 'Fast & Furious 11' again?"

"...No need, I'm very busy."

I'm so busy spending money every year that I can't find the time to film.

Gu Suixing fastened his seatbelt again. "Let me explain."

Lu Fengqing kept her eyes straight ahead: "No explanation."

There's no way to explain this, so running away is the best option.

I wonder if her older brother has seen her or the car.

She'd trade three pounds of Gu Suixing's flesh for her brother forgetting he owns this car, thank goodness.

Gu Suixing turned around and looked at him. "Lu Fenghe?"

Lu Fengqing immediately said, "You've mistaken me for someone else, dear~"

"..."

Gu Suixing laughed, her peach blossom eyes unfathomable. "Am I really that shameful?"

Lu Fengqing kept her eyes straight ahead, "It's good that you know."

Gu Suixing scoffed, stretched out his long legs, and leaned back in his chair.

He wanted to see where she planned to take him to dinner tonight.

As it turns out, City A is only so big; if you live here long enough, you'll run into acquaintances no matter where you go.

After changing locations three times, Lu Fengqing suggested, "How about we order takeout?"

Gu Suixing: "Bring it to the roadside, and eat it in the car?"

Lu Fengqing imagined the scene—

She, wearing a Dior dress, and he, wearing a Bleoni haute couture suit, sat in a Lamborghini parked by the roadside, eating takeout...

The image was too impactful, so Lu Fengqing decisively gave up.

It's okay, she has a Plan B.

Lu Fengqing asked with a smile, "Where do you live? How about I take you home and order you some takeout before I leave?"

"I live by the sea, you can take me."

"..."

An hour later, the two got out of the car in front of a noodle shop in Xicheng District.

Xicheng District is a key development area for the next few years, but for now, it is still relatively... barren.

But being barren means you won't run into people from your social circles.

This noodle shop has average decor, but it's clean and hygienic.

When two people, whose attire could roughly be counted as enough to own twenty or thirty noodle shops, sit down in a noodle shop, the whole place becomes much brighter.

There weren't many people, and the owner quickly brought out two steaming bowls of noodles.

Lu Fengqing said with an exaggerated expression, "Oh dear, I feel bad that Fourth Young Master had to eat an 18-yuan bowl of tomato beef brisket noodles with me."

Gu Suixing picked up a pair of disposable chopsticks and said in a nonchalant tone, "I'm not aggrieved. I should thank Miss Lu for not taking me to eat those 2-yuan-a-skewer roadside barbecues."

Lu Fengqing: "...What's wrong with barbecue? Do you look down on barbecue?"

Gu Suixing said expressionlessly, "I wouldn't dare."

Lu Fengqing: "..."

What are you afraid of?

Lu Fengqing did indeed take Gu Suixing to eat roadside barbecue.

She is extremely particular about her clothes and appearance, and the extravagance of a rich young lady is fully reflected in her. However, when it comes to "eating", she is very much in line with her tech geek identity. She can eat anywhere and anything.

It was on Gu Suixing's eighteenth birthday. As the legitimate "grandson" of the Gu family, the Gu family held a coming-of-age ceremony for him at the Crescent Bay International Hotel. After the ceremony, the Gu family's heir, dressed in a bespoke suit, bespoke shoes, and a multi-million dollar watch, exuding "luxury" and "wealth" from head to toe, was dragged by her to a roadside barbecue stall. He ate his first meal of roadside barbecue, where the cheapest skewer cost 2 yuan and the most expensive skewer cost 10 yuan. Even though the two of them ate until they were stuffed, the total cost was less than 100 yuan.

It was already eleven o'clock when I came out of the noodle shop.

After getting in the car, Lu Fengqing asked, "Where do you live?"

Gu Suixing: "Dongcheng District".

Lu Fengqing quickly planned out the driving route in her mind.

North is up, south is down, west is left, and east is right. In other words, she had to cross the entire city of A to take him back to the East District, and then back to Xingheli in the South District.

Lu Fengqing once again sincerely suggested, "How about I call you a car?"

Gu Suixing: "Tomorrow is Saturday, no need to work."

A bad feeling rose in Lu Fengqing's heart. "And then?"

"I wouldn't mind taking another round around City A and enjoying the night breeze."

"..." She minded.

Gu Suixing: "Back to the Milky Way."

Lu Fengqing: "?"

"Didn't you have something to tell me?" Gu Suixing loosened his tie. "After tonight, I might not have time to listen."

Lu Fengqing gritted her teeth.

You win!
