Chapter 308 Isn't my home good enough?
Gu Suixing really had no intention of starting a relationship early.
Early romantic relationships, which resemble children playing house, held no appeal for him.
What he wanted was that unrestrained, desperate entanglement in his dreams late at night.
Naturally, he wouldn't let Lu Fengqing know about this.
At least not now.
After starting high school, Gu Suixing's temper improved significantly. He would go wherever Lu Fengqing told him to go, and he would never go west if she pointed east. If she sent him a message in the middle of the night wanting fries and cola, he would go out to buy them for her.
Huo Huai'an couldn't stand it anymore. "You're spoiling me like this before we're even married. What will happen when we do? Will she pee on my head?"
Gu Suixing: "It doesn't matter. Let her do whatever she wants."
The more she torments me, the easier it will be for me to torment her in the future.
Days passed by one by one.
Of the three, Huo Huai'an, the oldest, was the first to celebrate his eighteenth birthday.
As the eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Huai'an naturally had his own coming-of-age ceremony.
His coming-of-age ceremony was held in City A. Gu Suixing went, but Lu Fengqing did not.
Because Madam Lu's health had been poor since the beginning of last year, and her condition suddenly worsened recently, she was hospitalized, so Lu Fengqing had to stay to take care of her.
Shortly after Huo Huai'an's eighteenth birthday came Lu Fengqing's birthday.
Because of this, Dou Meijuan even made a special trip from City A.
Grandpa Lu said repeatedly, "It must be done. We want Nian Nian to have a coming-of-age ceremony too."
Generally, only boys have a grand coming-of-age ceremony. Although Lu Fengqing is not a boy, the two elders still wanted to hold one for her.
They wanted everyone to know that their precious granddaughter had everything others had, except for not having a father and mother. She was the eldest daughter of the Lu family, the apple of their eye.
Lu Fengqing, however, did not want to do it and refused to agree no matter what. "Why invite so many people? I don't know them. We can just eat a cake together."
The Lu family couldn't persuade her otherwise, so they had to abandon their plans to hold a coming-of-age ceremony.
Although it wasn't a big celebration, on Lu Fengqing's birthday, her two uncles, Lu Yinghui and Lu Yingliang, put aside all their work and brought their families to S City to celebrate her birthday.
They invited the four members of the Gu family next door, and the whole group had a lively dinner at the Lu family's house.
After dinner, Lu Fengqing made three wishes in front of the cake: she hoped her grandmother would get better soon; she hoped her grandparents would live to be a hundred years old; and she hoped to be with Gu Suixing forever.
"What did you wish for?" Gu Suixing leaned closer and asked her.
Lu Fengqing said, "It won't work if I tell you. I'm not telling you."
Gu Suixing: "Instead of making a wish on this lump of cream, why don't you make a wish on me?"
"Okay." Lu Fengqing nodded. "I hope Xingbao can wear a dress for me."
Gu Suixing: "You should still make your wish to it. What if it agrees?"
Lu Fengqing looked at him with disdain.
Standing to the side, Lu Fenghe looked at Lu Fengqing, then at Gu Suixing, and his brows furrowed slightly.
After the birthday party ended, Lu Fenghe asked Lu Fengqing, "Are you in a relationship?"
Lu Fengqing blushed and immediately denied it: "No!"
Seeing that Lu Fenghe didn't believe her, Lu Fengqing held up four fingers and swore, "It's really not true."
Lu Fenghe looked at Lu Fengqing for a moment and then said nothing more. "Study hard and get into a university in City A after you pass the college entrance exam."
Lu Fengqing nodded, "Okay."
Even if her older brother hadn't said anything, she was still going to study at university in City A.
Because Gu Suixing will return to City A.
After my birthday, I'm back to the intense and busy preparation for the college entrance exam.
Gu Suixing was the youngest of the three, and his coming-of-age ceremony came the latest, after the college entrance examination.
Eighteen is the dividing line of adulthood, the beginning of entering society, signifying maturity, independence, and responsibility. But for Gu Suixing, it's more like a key, a key to unlock the shackles and open the cage.
After he turned eighteen, he was able to do many things he had wanted to do before but couldn't.
The Gu family held a grand coming-of-age ceremony for Gu Suixing, and the banquet gathered powerful and influential people from all over the country. However, Gu Suixing, who was surrounded by everyone like a star, was not interested.
No matter how many people came, none of them were the one he wanted to see.
Fortunately, she finally arrived as promised.
She looked travel-worn but smiled and said to him, "Happy birthday, Xingbao."
Gu Suixing thought to herself, "It's quite fun, and it'll be even funnier later."
After leaving the barbecue stall, Gu Suixing led the person home.
"Xingbao, why aren't the lights on?" It was Lu Fengqing's first time visiting Gu Suixing's home in City A, and she couldn't help but be curious and want to take a good look around.
The person she called out to did not answer her.
Just as Lu Fengqing was about to reach out and pat him, the person in front of her suddenly turned around and took two steps forward.
When she turned around, her back was already pressed against the door.
A warm breath, carrying the scent of alcohol, wafted over her, and the next second, her lips were captured in a kiss.
Lu Fengqing stared blankly at those peach blossom eyes so close to hers, without uttering a sound or struggling.
Below my chest, my heart was pounding like a drum.
After an unknown amount of time, the person in front of me finally stepped back.
Where is my birthday present?
Lu Fengqing felt a burning pain on her lips. Usually, she was quite sharp, but her brain seemed a bit sluggish, whether from the alcohol or lack of oxygen. It took her a while to reply, "I forgot to bring it. I'll give it to you another day."
Gu Suixing neither agreed nor disagreed, and led her upstairs.
The lights were still off inside; it was pitch black and very quiet.
Because they weren't wearing shoes, their footsteps were extremely faint, sometimes audible and sometimes inaudible.
Lu Fengqing looked down at her hand being held, and a sense of danger suddenly rose in her heart.
"Xingbao," she called out, "maybe I should just stay at a hotel."
The person walking ahead didn't even turn their head. "Isn't my home good enough?"
“No…” Lu Fengqing frowned in distress.
How could his family be bad?
that is……
I have a feeling that something bad will happen if I stay.
