Chapter 24 He must want to pursue you
"Why?" Huo Huai Sui was even more confused.
Her fourth brother is so handsome, rich, and seems like the kind of man who would spoil women, why would she want to break up with him?
Lu Fengqing: "He was going abroad, and I didn't want a long-distance relationship, so we broke up."
"All right."
Being in a different city is indeed a big problem.
Not to mention that her fourth brother has been gone for so many years.
Huo Huaisui accepted this reason and then asked, "So now, do you still like him?"
Lu Fengqing smiled faintly, "It's been so long, why talk about liking or disliking someone now?"
Huo Huai Sui persisted: "Are you really not in love anymore?"
Huo Huai Sui is young and values relationships more, but many things in this world cannot be accomplished with just feelings, and many people cannot be together simply because they have feelings for each other.
Lu Fengqing asked her, "Have you heard that our family is about to go bankrupt?"
Huo Huaisui's gaze immediately turned sympathetic.
She had heard some things about the Gu family from her mother, and knew that for a large family like the Gu family, social standing and economic ties were very important. Things were fine when the Lu family was doing well, but now that the Lu family was in trouble, the Gu family couldn't possibly accept a daughter from a family on the verge of bankruptcy.
Huo Huai Sui sighed, "How pitiful."
"..."
Lu Fengqing raised her left hand expressionlessly, "Look at this 18-carat pink diamond and say it again."
The sad person suddenly became Huo Huai Sui: "...I'm so pitiful."
She's so pitiful. Even if the Lu family goes bankrupt, Lu Niannian is still richer than her.
Lu Fengqing put her hand down with satisfaction and tossed the Maserati car keys to her, saying, "The car is at the dealership; go pick it up yourself."
Huo Huaisui: "..."
Lu Fengqing picked up her phone, pointed through her contacts, and selected a few to send messages to, "Let's go out for afternoon tea."
Having acquired such a large pink diamond, of course I have to go out and show it off.
The women who were invited knew why Lu Fengqing had asked them out, but they were also really eager to see the pink diamond in person, so they agreed.
Huo Huai Sui glanced at the 18-carat pink diamond ring again, filled with envy and jealousy, "Which philanthropist gave it to you?"
Lu Fengqing: "A great philanthropist who wishes to remain anonymous."
Huo Huaisui: "Then he must want to pursue you."
Lu Fengqing: "..."
The more Huo Huaisui thought about it, the more convinced he became that it was true.
When a man gives a woman such an expensive diamond ring, nine times out of ten he wants to pursue her.
Then I felt it was a pity.
They are a perfect match, a young lady and a prince, a match made in heaven in romance novels.
Over the years, she has never seen her fourth brother with anyone, which shows that her fourth brother is not someone who falls in love with others so easily.
What a pity, what a pity.
...
Lu Fengqing first drove Huo Huaisui to the 4S store, and then the two of them each drove a supercar to the party location.
A restaurant in a rooftop loft.
Once everyone had arrived, Lu Fengqing generously showed them the pink diamond.
The "plastic sisters" were generous with their praise and compliments, which Lu Fengqing accepted without question.
The pink diamond went around once and finally returned to Lu Fengqing's hand.
The women chatted for a while about jewelry, bags, and then started gossiping.
They talked about whose husband had an affair with a female celebrity and was discovered by his wife, who then publicly beat the celebrity, disfiguring her. They also talked about who had been married for several years but still didn't have children and was desperately seeking medical help, and was recently preparing to undergo IVF. They also talked about who had several illegitimate children and whose wife still hadn't found out. As they talked, they started talking about the Tang family.
"I ran into Mrs. Tang and Miss Gu at the shopping mall yesterday." The woman glanced at Lu Fengqing, and seeing that Lu Fengqing showed no displeasure, she continued, "Mrs. Tang and Gu Weiwei were strolling hand in hand in a jewelry store, all smiles. You'd think they were a mother and daughter."
"Is Gu Weiwei still in university?"
"What's wrong with going to university? In China, you can get a marriage certificate as soon as you turn twenty."
Huo Huaisui asked curiously, "Does Gu Weiwei know about those things in Tangxing Prefecture?"
"Whether you know it or not is not important." The woman gave a meaningful smile. "Men, how many of them don't stray? What's most important for us women is to hold onto our position as the main wife and hold onto the money in our hands."
Huo Huai Sui pouted, looking like he couldn't accept it.
The woman was about to speak again when she suddenly stopped, looking straight ahead. "Is that... the Crown Prince?"
Several women looked over and saw a young couple being led to their seats by a waiter.
The women exude elegance, and the men, needless to say, are the most dazzling presence wherever they stand, possessing both good looks and charisma.
Huo Huai Sui subconsciously looked at Lu Feng Qing.
Lu Fengqing's expression remained indifferent, as if it were none of her business, but inwardly she was cursing: That scumbag! Just a few days ago he was calling her "baby," hugging and kissing her, and giving her a pink diamond; and today he's out on a date with another woman. What a jerk!
"The young master and Miss Qin have such a good relationship. They go out on a date on the weekend. Unlike my husband, who is always at work. He might as well just live with work."
"Miss Qin is so lucky. She's the only daughter of Deputy Director Qin, and she started her own clothing brand at a young age. She's a typical example of someone who's beautiful, rich, and talented."
Several women looked at Lu Fengqing, wanting her to join the group chat.
Lu Fengqing smiled. "Miss Qin is indeed beautiful."
Several women immediately complimented her, saying she was pretty, but not as pretty as him.
As Huo Huaisui listened, he began to understand why Lu Fengqing always liked to invite these women out.
The flattery was quite good.
"Speaking of which, Miss Lu probably hasn't met the young master of the Gu family before, has she?"
Huo Huai Sui thought to himself, "You must be really ignorant. She might have even slept with him."
“I hadn’t seen him before either. If I had known earlier that the young master of the Gu family was so handsome, I would have abandoned all shame and pursued him. There would have been no chance for my husband.”
"Come on, you don't even know if you're good enough for her."
"Get out! You think you're good enough just because I'm not?"
Listening to their playful banter, Lu Fengqing smiled and asked, "Want to play mahjong?"
"Come, come, come."
Separated by a glass partition—
Qin Xuan gracefully cut her steak and asked the man sitting opposite her, "Did you come here for a date with me, or to see other women?"
Gu Suixing withdrew his gaze and was about to speak when Qin Xuan quickly made a gesture to stop him.
"Okay, don't say anything, I understand."
Expecting anything good to come out of this young master's mouth is like hoping a dog will grow ivory. She didn't want her mood ruined, so she decided to cut her losses.
Gu Suixing raised an eyebrow, then decided not to say anything more and took out her phone.
[Huo Huaisui: I don't know what to say]
[Huo Huaisui: Fourth Brother, I wish you and Miss Qin happiness]
[Huo Huaisui: Even if the Lu family goes bankrupt, I will still find a good man for Niannian.]
Gu Suixing made a phone call directly.
When Huo Huaisui saw the caller ID, he almost fell off the sofa. Feeling a little guilty, he pressed the answer button.
"come over."
"..."
Huo Huaisui dawdled and dragged his feet.
Qin Xuan glanced at Huo Huai Sui and asked, "Your cousin?"
Huo Huai Sui gave a fawning smile, "Fourth Brother, Sister-in-law."
"Sister-in-law?" Qin Xuan raised her eyebrows, seemingly finding the title amusing, and turned to look at Gu Suixing.
Huo Huaisui looked completely innocent.
"Go ahead and call me that," Gu Suixing said calmly. "I thank you on behalf of your brother."
Huo Huaisui: "..."
Qin Xuan shook her head and chuckled, "You guys chat, I'm going to the restroom."
Gu Suixing: "I heard from Huai'an that your aunt is looking for a partner for you recently?"
Huo Huai Sui: "...Yes."
Gu Suixing looked Huo Huai Sui up and down, "It's time for her to get married."
"?"
Huo Huai Sui's eyes widened.
Why?
Why does even her fourth brother think she should get married?
She's only 23 years old! She's still so young!
