Chapter 55 Redemption
Kindergarten ends at 4:30 pm, so Lu Fengqing set her alarm for 4:00 pm.
Just as Lu Fengqing was about to get up, the hand on her waist suddenly tightened.
Lu Fengqing looked at the man's sleeping face, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't bear to wake him. She picked up her phone again and sent a message to Huo Huaisui and the kindergarten, asking Huo Huaisui to pick up Rui Rui from the kindergarten.
I got contact information for Teacher Rui Rui when I accompanied her to the Children's Day activity last time. The teacher later added Lu Fengqing to the parents' group and would occasionally post videos and photos of the children at school in the group.
The children attending this kindergarten all come from wealthy and influential families. Often, their parents don't have time to pick them up, so it's common for them to ask someone else to do so. The teacher didn't say much, but simply asked Lu Fengqing for a photo of Huo Huaisui to help her recognize him.
On the other hand, Huo Huai Sui readily agreed.
[SuiSui: But I'm meeting my blind date at 7 PM tonight, so you'll have to come early to pick him up.]
Lu Fengqing raised an eyebrow.
Lu Fengqing still vividly remembers the exceptionally handsome man she met on Huo Huaisui's behalf last time. She has doubts about Huo Huaisui's aunt's judgment and doesn't think highly of her.
Knowing Huo Huaisui's fiery temper, Lu Fengqing reminded him: "[If you feel the other party is not good, quickly leave; don't fight.]"
As soon as the message was sent, her hand was pressed down by a large hand.
A sleepy man's voice came through: "Who are you chatting with?"
"Year after year".
When Lu Fengqing saw that he was awake, she was wondering whether she should go pick up Rui Rui herself.
Gu Suixing snatched the phone from her hand, stuffed it under the pillow, and rolled over to cover her.
His eyes, dark and deep, were fixed on her, their desire for pleasure more obvious than ever.
Lu Fengqing raised her hand and placed it on his chest, pretending to be embarrassed, and said, "Isn't it wrong for me to do something bad the first time I come back with you?"
The man gently bit her lower lip. "It'll get better after a few more times."
Lu Fengqing's phone was still vibrating incessantly under her pillow.
[SuiSui: Relax, relax, I'm not the impulsive girl I used to be.]
[SuiSui: I was so busy finishing my manuscript the other day that I forgot to tell you about that bastard of a brother of mine.]
[SuiSui: Didn't he promise to buy me a yellow diamond when he went to City C? Guess what he bought me when he came back?]
[SuiSui: He bought a yearly VIP membership for my QQ account! And it's just a regular one! In his eyes, I'm not even worth an SVIP. It makes me so angry!]
[SuiSui: Oh right, and yesterday when I picked you up in his car, he found out and took all my cash, not even a single penny.]
[SuiSui: Having such a brother is the worst luck imaginable.]
[SuiSui: Hey, where are you?]
The person is busy exploring relationships between men and women and cannot reply.
Lu Fengqing thought this scoundrel was just joking, since he was still sick, but she didn't expect him to actually come a few times.
My phone rang several times during that time, but I don't know who called.
By the time I finally got out of bed, it was completely dark outside.
Lu Fengqing sat on the toilet, her back aching and her legs weak, thinking with distress, "This is pleasurable, but it's really too hard on my back."
It also consumes energy.
The energy she got from the steak she ate that morning was completely used up, and she was even severely overdrawn.
This shouldn't be done too often, as it's harmful to the body and kidneys. Lu Fengqing plans to give Gu Suixing a good talking-to later.
Lu Fengqing took a quick shower and came out to see an old man who had just finished showering in the bathroom in the living room and looked refreshed. Her words of advice suddenly stuck in her throat.
...Now she looks more like the patient.
After getting in the car, Gu Suixing asked, "Where would you like to eat?"
Lu Fengqing yawned and was about to speak when a pleasant ringtone sounded.
Gu Suixing glanced at the caller ID, then pressed the answer and speakerphone buttons.
Huo Huai'an's voice came out: "Sui Xing, do you have time to help me redeem my sister?"
Lu Fengqing lowered her hand and looked at Gu Suixing's phone.
Gu Suixing asked calmly, "Which girl?"
Huo Huai'an: "That guy isn't very bright."
Lu Fengqing: "..."
Does Sui Sui know that you said that about her?
Huo Huai'an sighed, "I'm not afraid to tell you this, but in all my years, this is the first time I've ever seen someone go on a blind date and end up washing dishes in a restaurant kitchen."
Lu Fengqing's lips twitched.
She wasn't worried about Huo Huai Sui. Huo Huai Sui had plenty of part-time work experience under the pressure of his older brother Huo Huai An, so washing dishes shouldn't be a problem for him. What she was worried about was Rui Rui.
“I have some things to take care of at the company,” Huo Huai’an said. “Before she completely disgraces the Huo family, I would like to trouble you to go and redeem her for me.”
Gu Suixing didn't want to embarrass himself, and was about to refuse when Lu Fengqing gently tugged at his sleeve.
Gu Suixing glanced at her and said, "I know."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Fengqing said, "Rui Rui and Sui Sui are together."
Twenty minutes later, Lu Fengqing and Gu Suixing were led into the kitchen of a restaurant by a waiter.
There was a special dishwashing area in the kitchen. When Lu Fengqing arrived, Huo Huaisui and Rui Rui were sitting on small stools, wearing rubber aprons and rubber gloves, enthusiastically stirring the dirty bowls in the large basin.
"Rui Rui, look at Xuan'er, isn't Auntie amazing?"
Rui Rui didn't quite understand, but she was very supportive, saying, "Amazing!"
"..." Lu Fengqing coughed lightly, drawing the attention of the two.
The two, one big and one small, turned around at the same time.
Upon seeing Lu Fengqing, Huo Huaisui was so excited that tears almost welled up in his eyes.
“Auntie!” Rui Rui stood up a little awkwardly.
Huo Huai Sui snorted, "I called you more than a dozen times and you didn't answer. I thought you had disappeared. So you still remember me after all."
Lu Fengqing knew she was in the wrong and couldn't argue. She helped Rui Rui take off her rubber gloves and said to Huo Huai Sui with a forced smile, "Let's go."
Huo Huai Sui stretched out his hands with a proud expression.
Lu Fengqing found it somewhat amusing and helped her take off her gloves as well.
Huo Huai Sui finally felt a little more at ease.
Gu Suixing didn't follow. He was standing at the kitchen door, where the restaurant manager was explaining what had just happened to him.
"It's my fault, I didn't recognize Miss Huo... Miss Huo came with a gentleman, and they suddenly started arguing halfway through their meal. Before our waiter could intervene, the gentleman left. So, naturally, Miss Huo has to pay the bill..."
Who knew that Huo Huaisui didn't bring any money, and his phone was out of battery when he tried to pay by scanning a QR code.
The waiter thought someone had tried to dine and dash and was about to call the police when the He family's daughter, a regular customer, suddenly suggested that Huo Huaisui wash dishes in the kitchen to pay off the debt... This isn't a TV drama, this suggestion is really outrageous. Their restaurant is expensive, a meal costs at least a thousand yuan. If Huo Huaisui were to wash dishes to pay off the debt, he would have to do it for several days. Besides, their restaurant already has people who wash dishes, they can handle it, there's no need to add another one.
The restaurant manager was naturally unwilling, but they dared not offend Ms. He, so they had no choice but to agree.
Who would have thought that the one who dined and dashed was actually Miss Huo?
If they had known earlier that it was Miss Huo, who had even brought the young master along, the restaurant manager would have paid for the meal out of his own pocket rather than keeping her in the kitchen to wash dishes.
Gu Suixing pinched the bridge of her nose. "Go ahead and get busy."
The restaurant manager knew that the young master was not blaming them, so he didn't dare to make a fuss and retreated with a forced smile.
"Fourth Brother?" Huo Huai Sui's eyes widened when he saw Gu Sui Xing appear there.
Why did her fourth brother come too?
Gu Suixing's gaze swept lightly over her and landed on the little guy that Lu Fengqing was holding.
