Chapter 282 He came to see you.

Well, it all started with yesterday's birthday party.

Huo Huai Sui let slip to Lu Feng Qing that her father had let her brother know she was dating, and that in order to avoid her brother's questions, she hadn't gone home last night. Instead, she had been repeatedly invited by a swindler surnamed Xie to stay overnight at his parents' faculty dormitory, and that Xie's parents had come to her door to confront her. Huo Huai Sui told Lu Feng Qing all about this.

Lu Fengqing sympathized with her plight but couldn't understand, "So why did you call me here?"

Huo Huai Sui exclaimed in horror, "If you hadn't come, his mother would have taken me back to the Xie residence!"

Madam Xie said that Mr. and Mrs. Xie also wanted to see her and warmly invited her to visit the Xie residence, saying that there was no better time than now.

The mother and son's "warm invitations" were equally unreliable, almost scaring her heart out!

Luckily, she was quick-witted and said that she and Niannian had made plans to go shopping together!

Huo Huai Sui became increasingly frightened as he thought about it, his face scrunched up. "You said I've already broken up with that liar Xie, why would I need to meet his parents?"

Lu Fengqing casually said, "Then let's get back together."

Judging from the current situation, Xie Qinglan is not a bad person. Unlike Tang Xingzhou, who is promiscuous and fickle, there is no news of him having any ambiguous relationship with any woman. Most importantly, he has the patience to coax Huo Huaisui, this eccentric fool. They are a good match in terms of social status and family education. If they can continue their relationship, it would be a good match.

Huo Huaisui said, "It hasn't come to the point of meeting the parents yet."

Lu Fengqing looked at her, "How far have you and he gone?"

“Well,” Huo Huai Sui said slowly, “I hugged him.”

"..." Very good, he is a gentleman.

Huo Huai Sui went to the birthday party yesterday in Huo Huai An's car, and left in Xie Qing Lan's car. She didn't drive here, but got into the car with Lu Feng Qing.

After getting into the car, Huo Huaisui fastened his seatbelt and looked around the interior, asking, "What is this car?"

Lu Fengqing: "Brabus. A modified Mercedes-Benz."

"..." Perhaps she was too poor and didn't understand.

Mentioning the car, Huo Huaisui couldn't help but get angry at Xie the liar again.

She and her brother had been battling wits for almost two years to save enough money to buy a Volvo. The Maserati she'd been driving most often these past few months was the one Nian Nian had given her. She thought Xie the liar was in a similar situation to her, since Xie's parents were both working and couldn't be that rich. Turns out, Xie the liar was driving a Maybach!!!

Is this reasonable?

“That makes sense,” Lu Fengqing said. “Although Xie Qinglan’s parents are employees, his uncle is a boss in the capital. He’s unmarried and has no children, but he’s always raised Xie Qinglan like his own son. What’s a Maybach to him?”

Although the Xie family is involved in education and has a permanent position, which might not sound like they are wealthy, none of them are actually poor.

Not to mention Xie Chaokun's generation. Xie Chaokun married the eldest daughter of the Gu family, Xie Chaolang married the eldest daughter of the Ji family, and Xie Chaoyin made it onto the Forbes rich list through his own entrepreneurship. The entire family was completely unrelated to the word "poor".

Huo Huaisui blinked, "The boss of the Imperial Capital?"

Lu Fengqing: "Yes. He's one of the three most reclusive billionaires in City A right now."

Three hidden billionaires? This was the first time Huo Huaisui had heard this term.

Lu Fengqing had only heard Secretary Liu mention it not long ago.

This is a recent claim.

Outsiders only know that the five largest wealthy families in City A are the Lu family, the Tang family, the Huo family, the Xie family, and the Gu family. They all think that these five families stand at the top of the pyramid in City A. In fact, there are six families standing at the top of this pyramid, and the last one is the Ji family.

However, the Ji family had some shady businesses in their early years, so they kept a low profile and never came out into the public eye.

It can be said that, going back several decades, Ji Xuesong was the biggest hidden tycoon in City A.

Later, Gu Suixing returned to China and disappeared into the ranks of the hidden wealthy.

The remaining person works in investment banking and is also from City A. He rose to prominence earlier than Gu Suixing, but compared to Gu Suixing and Ji Xuesong, he is so low-key that he is almost unknown.

Huo Huaisui remarked, "No wonder they say City A is full of millionaires."

Lu Fengqing: "There are quite a few poor people too."

Huo Huaisui chimed in, "For example, I am one."

Lu Fengqing smiled and didn't refute her.

Huo Huai Sui's "poverty" was only reflected in her lack of money; she still enjoyed the life of a rich young lady.

In fact, in this bustling city, there are countless truly impoverished families living in cramped rooms of less than ten square meters.

Compared to them, Huo Huaisui was really not poor.

If we're really talking about being poor, Huo Huaisui can only be considered a penniless wretch among the wealthy.

Huo Huaisui asked, "Niannian, where are you going this afternoon?"

Lu Fengqing sat quietly for a moment, then said softly, "Let's go to the cemetery."

She got her marriage certificate today; she should tell her grandparents and her mother.

Huo Huaisui understood, "Aren't you waiting for Fourth Brother to go together?"

"No need." Lu Fengqing started the car. "After he's finished, we'll take Rui Rui there again."

It's not a particularly far place, about a two-hour drive. If you're willing, you can go anytime.

Huo Huai Sui immediately said, "Then I'll go with you!"

Lu Fengqing: "Really not going home?"

"No!" She'll only go back when she's spent all the money in her pocket!

Lu Fengqing didn't try to persuade her; she's a grown woman, if she gets lost, she can just find it again.

Upon arriving at the cemetery, Lu Fengqing asked Huo Huaisui to wait in the car while she went in alone with three bouquets of flowers.

The cemetery is cleaned by dedicated staff, and withered and rotten flowers are collected and put into trash cans, making the entire cemetery very clean.

When Lu Fengqing arrived at the tombstones of her three elders, she found that each tombstone was adorned with a bouquet of flowers.

The flowers hadn't completely withered yet, so they had obviously only been placed there recently.

White chrysanthemums were placed in front of the tombstones of Madam Lu and Mr. Lu, while a bouquet of colorful flowers of unknown varieties was placed in front of Lu Yunsi's tombstone.

Lu Fengqing stared at the bouquet of flowers in front of Lu Yunsi's tombstone for a moment, then murmured softly, "He came to see you."

The cemetery caretaker happened to walk by and saw Lu Fengqing standing in front of Lu Yunsi's grave, lost in thought. He assumed she was wondering who had sent the flowers and casually remarked, "For the past few months, a gentleman has been visiting this lady almost every week. He looks to be in his thirties, tall, and quite handsome. Each time he comes, he brings two bouquets of white chrysanthemums and a bouquet of wildflowers."

Lu Fengqing nodded. "Thank you."

The administrator waved and left.

Lu Fengqing stood quietly for a moment, then placed the three bouquets of flowers in her hands in front of the tombstones of Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, and Lu Yunsi.

"Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, I'm married. To Gu Suixing. We'll get our marriage certificate first, and have the wedding next year."

“Mom, you may not remember, but he is the son of Mr. Gu and Mrs. Huo. You should have met him when he was a child.”

“He’s been very good to me and Rui Rui… If he’s not, that’s okay too, I’ll just get Rui Rui a different dad. So you don’t need to worry about us down here.”

Gu Suixing had just arrived when he heard this sentence.
