Chapter 181 He's a penniless wretch
Lu Fengqing's first reaction was: "Online dating?"
Huo Huai Sui shook his head, not replying immediately, and kept everyone in suspense, "Where to?"
Lu Fengqing wasn't worried when she saw that she wasn't going to talk. She figured this silly girl would talk sooner or later anyway.
Drinking coffee at a coffee shop is boring, so Lu Fengqing took Huo Huaisui into the Star River and went to her private hot spring.
Everyone says it's a private hot spring, but only Huo Huai Sui would be willing to bring anyone else here.
After entering, Huo Huai Sui looked around and nodded, "Not bad."
Lu Fengqing: "Over two hundred thousand a year."
This only covers the cost of renting and managing the hot spring pool; the medicinal bath is charged separately, which is certainly a good deal.
Huo Huai Sui hissed. So expensive!
The private hot springs here are all in one room, and the hot spring pools are maintained by staff every day. Customers can come anytime.
Lu Fengqing couldn't take a bath since her period hadn't ended yet, so she sat to the side wrapped in a bath towel.
Huo Huaisui changed his clothes and went into the bath, letting out a comfortable sigh.
Two female masseuses walked in, went behind the two men, and began massaging their shoulders.
Huo Huai Sui was so comfortable that he almost fell asleep, and it wasn't until the masseur left that he regained some of his senses.
Huo Huaisui sighed softly, "If I could live that kind of life, I would gladly give up ten years of my life."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Fengqing glanced at her. "Have your boyfriend buy you one."
Huo Huai Sui sighed, "He's a penniless wretch."
Lu Fengqing: "...Then what do you like about him?"
Huo Huaisui thought for a moment, "It looks good."
Lu Fengqing raised an eyebrow. "You've seen him?"
Huo Huaisui blinked, realizing what he meant, "It's not an online romance."
Lu Fengqing: "?"
Huo Huaisui added: "You've seen it."
Lu Fengqing: "??"
Huo Huai Sui blushed slightly, "It's the number 13 in 'Imperial Capital'."
Lu Fengqing: "..."
Lu Fengqing vividly remembered her first time going to a nightclub to pick a male model, and immediately remembered who number 13 was. "You went to 'Royal Capital' again?"
“No,” Huo Huai Sui said. “I met him at Mr. Xie’s birthday banquet. He was working as a waiter there.”
Huo Huai Sui then told Lu Feng Qing about how the other party had refused the rich woman's offer of a sugar daddy and left the capital to work as a waitress.
After listening, Lu Fengqing felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. After a long silence, she finally asked, "When did you two start dating?"
However, working as both a male model and a waiter doesn't seem like someone who is wealthy.
The girl number 13 chosen by Huo Huai Sui that day not only had an outstanding appearance, but also an exceptional temperament. A truly poor family could not raise someone like that. Lu Feng Qing could only pray that the other party was not a professional conman trained by some organization.
Huo Huaisui: "Ten days ago."
Looking at her silly expression, Lu Fengqing couldn't help but ask, "...How far have things progressed between you two?"
Huo Huai Sui's eyes darted around for a moment, "I just... touched it."
"..."
Lu Fengqing wanted to ask Huo Huaisui where he touched the other person, or where the other person touched her.
Before she could ask, Huo Huai Sui asked, "Why do you think a man's abs are sometimes soft and sometimes hard?"
“…I don’t know,” Lu Fengqing said.
Anyway, it felt soft to the touch.
Lu Fengqing asked, "Did you touch someone's abs again?"
Huo Huaisui: "Can't I touch it?"
Lu Fengqing: "...Okay."
It's just abs.
Huo Huaisui frowned in confusion, "Last time when I touched it in the 'Imperial Capital,' it felt hard, but when I touched it again later, it was soft."
Lu Fengqing suggested, "Why don't you ask next time?"
Huo Huai Sui nodded: "That makes sense."
Lu Fengqing composed herself, coughed lightly, and continued, "How did you two get together?"
"Me and him..." Huo Huai began to recall the events of that day.
That happened three days after Mr. Xie's birthday banquet. He sent her a WeChat message saying he was taking a break and asked her to come out. She was bored at the time, so she agreed.
She only realized it was Qixi Festival after they met, but she didn't think much of it at the time. On the 13th, she took her out to play all day, to stroll through the food street, to play video games, to solve escape room puzzles, and to the amusement park in the evening.
After leaving the amusement park, they went to a dessert shop. The dessert shop was having a promotion: couples could buy one ice cream and get one free, plus a small gift.
She was a little disappointed at the time because she was single.
Single people don't deserve to enjoy Qixi Festival, and naturally they don't deserve to receive gifts.
But she really wanted that little gift.
Before she could figure out what to do, on the 13th, someone suddenly leaned close to her ear and asked, "Want to be my girlfriend?"
This was the first time she had spoken so closely to a man other than her own brother.
She didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
After all, number 13 is really good-looking.
Perhaps she wanted to see what it would be like to have a boyfriend she could see, or perhaps she really wanted that little gift, and without thinking, she nodded and said yes.
Finally, I got the ice cream and small gifts, and I also gained a boyfriend.
Huo Huai Sui didn't dare tell Huo Huai An about this, knowing full well that her brother wouldn't agree and might even force her to break up with Number 13.
She hasn't fully experienced what it's like to have a boyfriend yet, so she doesn't want to break up so soon.
However, keeping things to himself and not telling anyone was too painful. Today, he finally told everyone about his relationship, and Huo Huai Sui breathed a huge sigh of relief.
After hearing this, Lu Fengqing was speechless.
She really wanted to grab the dog-like man and bring him over to listen and see; there was someone here who was even easier to fool than her!
She and Gu Suixing have known each other for so many years, while Huo Huaisui and that number 13 have only known each other for a few days and spoken a few times. They probably don't even know each other's names...
Lu Fengqing raised an eyelid and asked, "What's his name?"
Huo Huai Sui wasn't beyond help; she actually knew this: "Xie Qing Lan."
"..." This name seems a little familiar?
Huo Huai Sui stood up from the pool. "I'm not soaking anymore, my skin will get wrinkled if I soak any longer."
After leaving the hot spring resort, Lu Fengqing remembered the gift, grabbed Huo Huaisui's collar, and asked with a forced smile, "What birthday gift did you give your fourth brother?"
Mentioning this, Huo Huai Sui's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Lu Feng Qing's wrist with his other hand, "How was it? Did you put it on? Did my fourth brother turn into a beast and do all sorts of things to you all night?"
"..." I think you're more like that beast.
Lu Fengqing brushed her hand away and said irritably, "What are you wearing? Your fourth brother was only discharged from the hospital a short time ago, and his injuries haven't healed yet."
Huo Huai Sui's eyes went dark like light bulbs going out. "Oh, right."
However, she quickly cheered up and winked, saying, "We can put it away for now and wear it after my fourth brother recovers."
Lu Fengqing pretended not to hear.
The two parted ways at the entrance of Xingheli. Lu Fengqing went straight back, while Huo Huaisui went to meet her boyfriend.
She received a call from her boyfriend shortly after she emerged from the Milky Way.
My boyfriend seemed to have just woken up too; his voice was languid and a little hoarse as he asked, "Where are you?"
Huo Huai Sui: "At the entrance of Xingheli. I just came out of the hot spring with my best friend."
Xie Qinglan knew without guessing who her best friend was. She was about to say that she would drive over to pick her up when she suddenly remembered her poor persona and had to swallow her words.
But it doesn't seem quite right to have his girlfriend drive over to pick him up.
Xie Qinglan looked thoughtfully at the house she was currently living in.
This is the staff housing that the school allocated to his parents. It's quite old and looks a bit run-down.
It doesn't look like the residence of a wealthy family.
Xie Qinglan's lips curled up slightly. "Want to come over and take a look at your boyfriend's place?"
Huo Huai Sui hadn't even visited her boyfriend's place yet, and her heart skipped a beat. "Address?"
After sending the address, Xie Qinglan put down his phone, strode into his parents' room, and ransacked the place like a bandit entering a village. He pulled out the old, patched clothes his father had hidden at the bottom of a trunk, picked out a set that was passable, changed into it, and looked at himself in the mirror.
He looks both poor and handsome.
Xie Qinglan was very satisfied.
