Chapter 23 Philanthropist

Lu Fengqing turned on the light, squatted in front of the shoe cabinet and rummaged around for a while before pulling out a pair of pink rabbit-head slippers and handing them over, saying, "Just make do with these."

She had many clothes and shoes, but none of them were for men.

Gu Suixing didn't bother with it and stepped directly on the floor.

As soon as Lu Fengqing changed into her slippers and turned around, she saw that the old man surnamed Gu had already sat down in front of the grand piano that she had never played since she bought it.

Lu Fengqing was hesitating about how to start a conversation about "serious business" when she suddenly heard him ask, "Trash can."

Lu Fengqing stretched out her long leg, hooked the trash can over, and kicked it in front of him.

Gu Suixing: "A five-carat diamond ring?"

"..." That was a miscalculation.

Lu Fengqing reluctantly took out the five-carat diamond ring from the coffee table drawer.

Gu Suixing: "Throw it again."

"..."

Lu Fengqing rebuked him: "Gu Suixing, don't go too far."

Gu Suixing asked expressionlessly, "Then I'll leave?"

"Thump—"

A five-carat diamond ring worth millions was once again thrown into the trash.

But the old man was still not satisfied, and sneered sarcastically, "He is Xingzhou, I am Gu Suixing."

Lu Fengqing opened her eyes slightly, not understanding how a man could be so petty as to fuss over even the way he addresses her.

"How old are you? Can't you stop being so childish?"

The immature man turned his head away and ignored her.

"..." You're amazing.

It's her fault for needing something from someone, so I could only appease her.

Lu Fengqing called out his nickname in a high-pitched voice—

"Follow the stars."

No response.

"Xiao Gu."

Still no response.

"Star Baby!"

Gu Suixing narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and spoke: "Speak."

"..." What's wrong with this?

Gu Suixing asked calmly, "What do you want me to do?"

Lu Fengqing quickly realized what was happening and glared at him angrily.

If she still hasn't realized what's happening by now, she's wasted her brain.

He clearly knew what she wanted to say all along and was just teasing her.

Gu Suixing didn't press her. His long, slender fingers moved casually across the piano keys. "I'm a businessman, not a philanthropist."

Lu Fengqing felt annoyed and turned her back to him.

She knew he was a businessman, but...

A hand rested on her shoulder, his unique body heat enveloped her completely.

He pulled her left hand over, put something on her middle finger, and then slipped his fingers through hers to interlock them.

"You know what I want."

A deep voice sounded in her ear, and warm breath gently brushed against her ear.

Lu Fengqing trembled, but forced herself not to turn around and asked calmly, "What do you want?"

He chuckled softly, "Aren't you going to tell me?"

Lu Fengqing remained silent.

Gu Suixing released her, "Let Lu Fengyang talk to me."

Until he left, Lu Fengqing did not look up, her face half buried in the crook of her right arm.

Although he didn't agree, at least he relented.

But for some reason, she felt as if something was blocking her chest.

Lu Fengqing was angry with herself for a while before she remembered that Gu Suixing seemed to have put something on her hand earlier, and she glanced at her left hand.

"hiss--"

On her middle finger was a diamond ring set with a large pink diamond.

According to her semi-expert opinion, the pink diamond should weigh around 20 carats, with relatively high clarity and a darker color, and a conservative estimate of eight figures.

Pink diamonds are rare and highly sought after, making Tang Xingzhou's 5-carat white diamond pale in comparison to this large pink diamond.

Lu Fengqing never expected that Gu Suixing would actually pay her back for the diamond ring he promised.

Her skin is fair, and the pink diamond on her hand doesn't make her skin look dark at all; the whole ring seems to have been tailor-made for her.

It has to be said that this old man surnamed Gu, though a dog, really knows how to please women.

Lu Fengqing held her hand up and down for a long time, then picked up her phone, took a picture of her hand, and sent it to someone.

[Lu Fengqing: [Image] Philanthropist?]

The philanthropist probably didn't reply to her while on his way back.

The pink diamond was so beautiful that Lu Fengqing couldn't resist taking several photos and posting them on her WeChat Moments.

Just as she expected, the post immediately received comments from her friends.

There are normal ones:

[A pink diamond? It's so big, it must be 20 carats!]

[This diamond ring must be worth tens of millions, no wonder she's a rich heiress born in Rome [thumbs up]]

[Wasn't it said that the Lu family was about to become the most indebted family?]

There are also abnormal ones:

[SuiSui: Did you take the ruby ​​off the chest of the Celestial Maiden DuoMi and make it into a diamond ring?]

[Big Brother: Sell the house to buy diamonds?]

[Huo Huai'an: Leave the husband but keep the diamond?]

[Does Sister Lu need someone to sleep with? I can not only eat, but also warm your bed. I just need to touch the pink diamond~]

Lu Fengqing sat quietly for a moment, then posted a comment visible to everyone under the post with a wandering expression.

[Lu Fengqing: A gift from a philanthropist.]

[Which philanthropist would you like to meet?]

[Tang Xingzhou: ?]

[I'm speechless. So late at night, one's throwing diamonds, the other's showing off theirs—don't they let anyone get any sleep?!]

Lu Fengqing: ?

Lu Fengqing scrolled down in confusion, and a post from more than ten minutes ago caught her eye.

[XXXXXXX: [Image]]

"..."

The attached photo is of the five-carat diamond ring she sent him, which was thrown into a trash can.

Scrolling down further, Lu Fengqing saw comments left by their mutual friend.

[Brother Xing, so you knew about the WeChat Moments feature?]

[SuiSui: What's wrong with this trash can?]

[Tang Xingzhou: ?]

Lu Fengqing's phone vibrated; she had received a message from Tang Xingzhou.

[Tang Xingzhou: [Screenshot][Screenshot]]

[Tang Xingzhou: ?]

"..."

Lu Fengqing threw her phone onto the sofa and lay down, pretending to be dead.

...

Fortunately, Tang Xingzhou didn't call directly to question him, nor did he send any more messages.

Remembering her business, Lu Fengqing got up and sent a message to Lu Fengyang, relaying Gu Suixing's words.

[Second Brother: Gu Suixing proposed?]

[Lu Fengqing: ...No]

[Second Brother: Hmm.]

Lu Fengqing managed to glean the meaning of "that's good" from that aloof "hmm".

Lu Fengqing opened her WeChat Moments and looked at the comments under these two posts, her gaze lingering on the three words "Huo Huaisui".

The next second, I exited Moments and opened Huo Huaisui's chat window.

[Lu Fengqing: Do you want the limited edition Chanel perfume?]

The message was not rejected, and Huo Huai Sui indeed released her from the dark room.

[Sui Sui: Hmph]

Lu Fengqing stared at the words for two seconds, then took out a car key from her bag, took a picture, and sent it.

[Lu Fengqing: [Image] Would you like to test drive a Maserati?]

If a limited-edition Chanel perfume can't fool you, a Maserati should do the trick.

[SuiSui: !! I want to!]

Lu Fengqing smiled and said, "[Come to Xingheli tomorrow]."

[SuiSui: Okay!]

The allure of the Maserati was so great that Lu Fengqing's doorbell rang at seven o'clock the next morning.

Huo Huaisui sat down on the sofa, raised his chin, and said, "Tell me, what exactly is going on between you and my fourth brother?"

Lu Fengqing: "That's all there is to it."

Huo Huai Sui glared at her.

Lu Fengqing had no choice but to be more specific: "We were together, but we broke up later."

Huo Huaisui: "Why did you break up?"

Lu Fengqing paused, "I suggested it."
