Chapter 284 Landing in the US
On the plane, Luo Zhiwei still couldn't understand why Gu Beixiao had to come along.
If she remembered correctly, all of her brother's businesses were in China, with few overseas operations. So why did he insist on going abroad?
Luo Zhiwei hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to stop hesitating and just ask, "Brother, you probably don't have any businesses overseas, so why did you make this trip?"
Gu Beixiao, who had been resting with his eyes closed in his seat, merely raised his eyelids slightly upon hearing this and replied in a deep voice, "What else could I go for? There's no cooperation whatsoever. You have to be under my nose."
He used to think You Ran was his own sister, and he felt the same way when they relied on each other for survival. Now... Wei Wei is going to a dangerous place with Lu Jingxiao, how could he possibly ignore it?
Although he had treated Weiwei like a younger sister before, there was always a distance between them. This time, it was a chance to make up for it.
Luo Zhiwei was taken aback, and a strange feeling of emotion welled up inside her.
Is this the love and care from an older brother?
This feeling is bittersweet, yet tinged with a touch of happiness.
She smiled gently, a natural smile, a smile that came from the bottom of her heart.
"Brother, you're just worried about me."
Luo Zhiwei joked lightly, her eyes filled with joy, like a child who hadn't grown up yet.
However, while Luo Zhiwei was happy, a certain man was not so happy.
Lu Jingxiao found Gu Beixiao rather displeasing; why was he always around?
"Mr. Gu, are you worried that I won't be able to take good care of Weiwei?"
"That's one way to understand it."
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
I choked on it.
This is a battle for male dignity, and Gu Beixiao is challenging him.
How could he possibly not take good care of Weiwei?
That's his baby; he'll care about him more than anyone else.
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
Why are you arguing?
Lu Jingxiao was somewhat unconvinced and retorted, "Then you don't need to worry about it. I will take good care of Weiwei. She is my woman, and I am her man!"
As if sensing something, Gu Beixiao immediately opened his eyes and stared sharply at Lu Jingxiao: "You guys are asleep?"
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
Is it yes or no?
Luo Zhiwei: "!!!!"
She knew Lu Jingxiao had no sense of propriety and was talking nonsense again, without even considering who the person in front of him was.
"Brother, you've misunderstood, you're overthinking it. How could I possibly..." Luo Zhiwei felt like she had a thousand mouths but still couldn't explain clearly: "What he meant was that I'm his fiancée, so naturally I belong to him."
"right."
Lu Jingxiao descended the pole very quickly.
Gu Beixiao: "..."
Bai Yuxin looked at the three of them with a gossipy expression, then fanned the flames: "But just a couple of days ago, cousin, didn't you just..."
Luo Zhiwei reacted very quickly; she was afraid that if she was a step slower, she would be so ashamed and angry that she would jump off the plane.
The next trending topic will become: "The eldest daughter of the Gu family jumps off a plane out of shame and indignation. Is this the extinction of humanity or the decline of morality?"
Hmm....
My mouth was covered again.
Lu Jingxiao glanced at him with a cold look in his eyes: "You..." His eyes were full of warning: "If you talk nonsense, I'll turn around and go home."
OK!
Fine!
Bai Yuxin immediately shut up, nestled in her seat like a quail, and carefully asked the flight attendant to get her some food.
Waaah... all you do is bully her.
Gu Beixiao narrowed his eyes dangerously, his voice low and deep: "What happened the other day?"
Bai Yuxin frantically stuffed food into her mouth, not giving herself a chance to speak: "No..."
It seems we won't get anything out of her. Bai Yuxin is like a quail in front of Lu Jingxiao. She can talk big, but when it comes to actually saying something, she can't utter a single word.
Judging from Weiwei's expression, they probably didn't go all the way, which is acceptable.
If Lu Jingxiao can't control his future, he wouldn't mind giving him a hand.
Gu Beixiao continued to close his eyes to rest, but he still kindly reminded him: "If you have nothing to do, arrange for someone to pick you up at the airport. Our whereabouts are probably under the surveillance of the Chris family, especially since we are accompanied by Miss Bai."
Bai Yuxin: "......"
I got tagged again.
Although, it wasn't intentional.
Once I've sorted things out with Chris, I'll ask him to carve one for you guys.
Lu Jingxiao snorted arrogantly, even with a hint of contempt: "Waiting for you to remind us before we do it is no better than waiting until we're all dead and having someone collect our bodies."
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
What caused this argument?
"How about we..."
Lu Jingxiao and Gu Beixiao stared at her simultaneously, their eyes filled with questioning and a hint of possessiveness.
Who do you choose?
Whose words do you agree with?
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
She suddenly stood up and, as she walked, said to Bai Yuxin, changing the subject: "Yuxin, what are you eating? I'm suddenly a little hungry. I'll eat with you."
Bai Yuxin: "......"
Is this the trouble of being cared for?
Sister Luo's reaction was so cute.
Luo Zhiwei chose to ignore any of them, and only then did Lu Jingxiao and Gu Beixiao finally quiet down.
However, just as Gu Beixiao said, as soon as the plane landed, someone appeared in front of their plane. Before they could even get out, they blocked their way.
**
As soon as the four of them got off the plane, they were greeted by about 20 adult bodyguards, the leader of whom looked to be a butler.
The man at the head of the group was dressed in a black tuxedo. Upon closer inspection, he was revealed to be a middle-aged man. He gave Lu Jingxiao a respectful gentlemanly bow.
Lu Jingxiao switched to his venomous mode again: "If you didn't know better, you'd think it was some kind of weird peacock about to spread its tail feathers. It's really disgusting to look at."
Paul the Butler: "..."
Is this really the famous CEO Lu, the man I'm meeting for the first time?
Why is your mouth so annoying?
It's really...annoying.
"Tuxedos look better on young men. Uncle... you should probably change into something else. It's really a bit of an eyesore to look at you like this."
Luo Zhiwei was not to be outdone, and she refused to let the other party off the hook.
Paul the Butler: "..."
She really needed to take a deep breath to calm herself down; otherwise, she really wanted to tie them up and teach them a lesson.
"Mr. Lu, I am the head butler of the Chris family. Our family patriarch and several elders wish to see you."
Lu Jingxiao showed no fear: "Is this your way of treating guests?"
Paul's butler smiled faintly; beneath his gentle exterior, he probably hid a knife.
"This is just a formality for welcoming you; there is no danger involved. I hope Mr. Lu will not misunderstand."
Paul straightened up, his gaze falling lightly on Bai Yuxin, and said coldly, "It's like this, Miss Bai, the clan leader didn't intend to invite you, after all, you were once Young Master Chris's fiancée."
"This is the engagement banquet of the young master and the eldest daughter of the Iman family. If your ex-fiancée were here, you would surely humiliate yourself."
Paul gave a slightly sarcastic smile: "Today's engagement party is quite grand, Miss Bai, you'd better not go looking for trouble."
Bai Yuxin almost lost her balance.
What's the meaning?
Is Chris getting engaged to someone else?
He gave in to his family and didn't want her anymore?
Is that what you mean?
Lu Jingxiao snorted coldly with a straight face, strode up to Paul, kicked him to the ground and stomped on him: "My sister, whom I wouldn't even say a sarcastic remark to, who are you trying to impress with your sarcastic tone!"
"I'm going to go and see what's going on today. I'll definitely send a big gift to Chris's engagement party!"
