Chapter 439 Chen Family, Your God Nuo is Back
Although I don't know why those old guys would prepare such a veiled gift, but putting aside the hidden meaning behind it, this is indeed a good toy.
The dagger is of good quality and looks very suitable for stabbing someone to death.
Leaving Finger alone, Lu Mingfei and Caesar went upstairs to find their girlfriend.
Tom's exaggerated shouts echoed in the presidential suite. Eri and Ricardo curled up on the large sofa, watching TV intently.
Seeing Lu Mingfei coming back, Eiry happily called out "Sakura", and the little one next to her who was biting the pacifier also whimpered twice, not knowing whether he was welcoming Lu Mingfei or saying hello to his brother-in-law behind him.
Caesar didn't see the other red-haired girl and was about to ask, but he saw the bedroom door upstairs open with a "click" and Nono, who had changed her clothes, came out.
She was no longer wearing casual clothes that allowed her to move around easily. Instead, she wore a neatly cut black dress. The unique design perfectly outlined her figure, and with a pair of knee-high boots, she looked a bit like a Valkyrie.
She even put on makeup to make her already bright facial features even colder. As long as she kept an expressionless face and stood there, she transformed from a crazy little witch into Chu Zihang, cold and sassy.
It can be seen that she attaches great importance to returning to the family that left her with countless unpleasant memories.
One can even say that it's like holding back one's energy to fight a tough battle.
Vision glanced at Brother Xiao Ma: I want to fight for my own honor, not to prove how great I am, but to tell others that I must get back what I lost!
Caesar and Nono have been dating for almost a year, and she has seen all kinds of Nono, but he has to say that this kind of Nono really touches his heart.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to praise him, Lu Mingfei beat him to the punch.
Lu Mingfei placed the gift box next to Ricardo and let Eri open it for fun. He looked at Nuonuo with interest and said jokingly:
"Oh, is it because the psychological trauma caused by your old father is too great? You have to dress up in full armor to avoid losing your dignity?"
Nono: (▼皿▼#)
She knew that Lu Mingfei couldn't speak human language, but this was still too accurate to break his defense. She took two deep breaths and felt her chest swell up with anger.
"Very beautiful, like a black rose in the dark night." Caesar was so busy admiring his girlfriend's beauty that he was slow to compliment her, which made it seem like he was trying to save face.
Fortunately, after these two days, Nuonuo has become accustomed to Lu Mingfei's bad mouth. In addition, she is a girl with strong adaptability and can choose to ignore his hurtful words.
"So which clothes are you going to change into to match me?" She looked at Caesar, who was wearing a clean white shirt and khaki trousers. It didn't fit the style of a nobleman, but it fit perfectly into the small world of a family of three.
"It's still early, why don't you help me pick out an outfit?" Caesar raised his eyebrows.
He has plenty of clothes, so he doesn't have to worry about not being able to match styles. If he really can't find a way, he can ask Percy, that idiot, to buy them for him.
But since my girlfriend is here, why bother with so much trouble? Just asking her for help will not only satisfy her, but also enhance our relationship. It's a win-win situation.
Nuonuo thought it made sense, so she hooked her finger and motioned him to go to the bedroom.
Caesar raised the corner of his mouth, gave Lu Mingfei an apologetic look, and strode upstairs.
Lu Mingfei watched the two of them sneak into the bedroom in broad daylight. Although he knew that their relationship had not reached that stage yet, and even if it had, it was impossible for them to start a game with guests around, it still felt a bit too awkward.
Damn, what are these Forgetful Couple?
Do you want to ask Ricardo to do a few somersaults to liven up the atmosphere?
Ricardo, who was opening a gift box with Eiry and making trouble at the same time, raised his head quickly, looked around, and found that there was no danger, so he continued to dig into the gift box.
After distributing the gift boxes, there were seven left. Two of them were for Nono and Ricardo and were placed separately on the single sofa on the side. Eiry happily opened the blind boxes for herself and Lu Mingfei.
But after opening four in a row, she found that none of them interested her. Compared with the priceless dragon bone and dragon blood products and precious ornaments, beautiful clothes and brand-name bags made her happier.
It would be even better if it was a limited edition game console or anime figure.
It’s a pity that the four family heads are all over 70 years old and cannot keep up with the trend. They all prepare gifts according to their own habits.
However, when Eiry opened the last gift box with the idea of guaranteeing a good gift, she finally found a good gift.
This is one of the two gifts prepared by the head of the Wang family, the Nintendo Wii game console. According to his eldest grandson, it is the most popular game console on the market. It is not available in China at all, so he asked someone to buy it for him in Taiwan.
Unfortunately, before it was opened, Lao Deng took it away and gave it to Lu Mingfei.
"Not bad." Seeing Eiry's happy expression, Lu Mingfei stopped thinking about the Wang family's previous special behavior.
Just when the little witch was figuring out how to install the game console, the two above also came out.
Black and white.
Caesar changed into a flashy white suit, which, with his blond hair and fair skin, made him look a little dazzlingly handsome.
"Have you ever considered dyeing your hair blue?" Lu Mingfei gave Caesar some advice.
"How do you say that?"
"Red and blue have always been a good couple."
Caesar: “…”
The last time he was so speechless was the last time.
"When do we leave?" Nuonuo saw his brother biting the wrapping of the gift box, so he went forward and picked him up. The latter babbled in resistance.
"Let's do it now." Lu Mingfei made the decision.
"So early?" Nuonuo looked at the time. It was only ten o'clock.
"What? Are you really planning to stay at Chen's house for dinner?" Lu Mingfei glanced at her sideways.
"Of course not. I'm afraid they'll spit in the food."
Nuonuo shook her head. Although this matter was childish and outrageous, it seemed very reasonable when it came to the Chen family.
After all, when she was a child, she was indeed targeted and treated disgustingly in various ways.
"That's it, since you're not eating or doing anything else, just go early and come back early." Lu Mingfei called out to Eiry, who was plugging her game console into the TV. "It's a good opportunity to catch them off guard."
"What about Ricardo?" Nuonuo held down her brother who was still struggling to get the gift box to grind his teeth, and pinched his chin with her hand to force his big eyes to look at Lu Mingfei.
"If you're willing, take it with you. If you're not willing, you can ask Xia Mi and Chu Zihang to help."
Lao Tang, Constantine and Ryoma Xun have been having a great time recently. The movie made by the three of them is very good. There is no need to add another one, otherwise Constantine will really eat people.
As for this guy Fingle, it would be better to expect him to pull down the night watchman and become the vice-principal himself than to expect him to take care of the children.
But... Nuonuo looked down at her cute little brother, thinking of his pitiful appearance trembling under the gaze of the mischievous Xia Mi and the unapproachable Chu Zihang, and finally decided to take him with her.
Anyway, with Lu Mingfei around, the Chen family didn't dare to rob the property because they were bullying the tiger.
It's a good opportunity to show that man who only has calculations in his eyes what it means to truly get along as a family.
Let’s go as soon as we say go, four big kids and one small kid set off immediately.
The group took the elevator directly to the hotel's underground parking lot.
Nuonuo was about to drive when she noticed a figure standing quietly beside a pillar not far away.
There was a blond and blue-eyed man who looked a bit like the foreigner standing there, looking like he had been waiting for a long time.
Before she could ask if this was the representative of the Gattuso family that Caesar mentioned, she heard Caesar question in a bad tone:
"Patsy, what are you doing here?"
Percy stood in the shadow of the pillar. Hearing Caesar's displeased question, his face showed no surprise. He simply bowed slightly and gave an impeccable salute:
"Master Caesar, my only mission in China is to ensure your safety and to handle all matters for you at any time.
Whether as a bodyguard, secretary or assistant."
The implication is that he must always be by Caesar's side, otherwise it would be a serious dereliction of duty.
The reason is very plausible and watertight, as if to say, "Don't make things difficult for me, a worker."
Caesar's ice-blue eyes flashed with anger. He knew too well the behavior of the old guys in the Gattuso family. They were probably worried that he would follow Lu Mingfei and mess up the joint plan of the Gattuso and Chen families.
Nuonuo held Ricardo in his arms and watched the scene coldly.
She knew that Patsy had other purposes for following them, and there were many of them, but she didn't have the time or the mood to think about it at the moment.
If you have any plans, tell Lu Mingfei behind me.
Lu Mingfei pulled Hui Liyi to watch the show, sneering in his heart.
Pasi's rhetoric might be enough to fool others, but it was pure bullshit to him. The Gattuso family was clearly worried that he would quietly expose the Chen family if they had a disagreement, and Caesar, the ultimate traitor, might conceal the truth for various reasons.
So he sent Percy, his assistant, bodyguard and secretary, to follow him closely, wanting to see with his own eyes what other unknown tricks Lu Mingfei had.
After all, so far, the fighting style he has shown to outsiders is mostly simple and crude, relying on absolute strength to crush one-sidedly.
If there really was a Dragon King hidden behind the Gattuso family as he guessed, then the other party would never believe that he could solve all the problems with such a simple and crude method.
Although Lu Mingfei announced to the public that the White King's Dragon Skeleton had been destroyed by him, no one would take it seriously.
The unnamed Wind King would certainly wonder if he had inherited or stolen some of the White King's power.
The purpose of letting Percy observe closely was to see if he could find any clues to prove that Lu Mingfei really possessed the power of the White King.
Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but mutter in his heart:
If Xiao Fengzi really planned this, then isn't he worried that he would directly use his mind control powers to distort Percy's will and turn him from a loyal dog of the Gattuso family into his own puppet and undercover agent?
Or is it that the other party is absolutely sure that even if Percy's will is twisted and he becomes a double agent, there is a way to see through him at a glance, or even use him in reverse?
Oh Moses Roy~
If it is the latter, the other party is very likely to be an all-round player like Xia Mi who is proficient in all kinds of knowledge and can use the words of different bloodlines.
He is worthy of being the strongest warrior among the four monarchs and eight kings in Mouye's mouth. He is much stronger than Xiami, a student who is only good at one subject.
Feeling slightly insulted, Lu Mingfei had no intention of intervening in the confrontation between Caesar and Percy. He just made a note in his mind.
After giving me the gift, Passy ignored me and didn't even say hello when we met. I guess he gave me a Ferrari worth millions as a gift, and was scolded by Gattuso's boss Deng, so he was unhappy about it. I'll give him a big gift later.
After he finished writing it down, he took Ricardo, who was still dancing and unaware of the tense atmosphere around him, from Nono's arms, and pulled Eri into the car first.
The keys to the Ferrari were given to Chu Zihang last night, and today he drove his Xiaomai to show off.
Seeing that Lu Mingfei had no objection, Caesar looked at Percy in front of him who was unmoved and had a clear attitude of "You can scold me as much as you want, I will stick with you", knowing that continuing the argument would only be a waste of time and would only add to his annoyance.
He opened the driver's door, let Nuonuo get in, and then he went around to the passenger seat, opened the door and got in.
Percy was unaware of Caesar's anger and Nono's cold eyes, and still maintained a formulaic, impeccable smile on his face.
After the Maybach slowly drove out of the parking space, he quickly walked to a brand new black Mercedes-Benz not far away, and followed the Maybach slowly, keeping a distance from it.
Nuonuo glanced through the rearview mirror at the Mercedes-Benz that was following him closely, curled his lips, and did not try to use any superb driving skills to get rid of it.
Not to mention the speed limit in the city, the destination is so clear that if you shake him off, you will only meet him again at the gate of the Chen family mansion.
The two cars drove one after the other through the busy streets of the capital and finally arrived near Xishan. The main residence of the Chen family was located there. It was a large and ancient manor with high walls and deep courtyards, and it was extraordinary in style.
As soon as the car stopped outside the gate, several people who had been waiting at the door came over to greet it.
Leading the group was the old butler Chen Fu, whom I had met last night. Next to him stood Chen Weien, who had previously disguised himself as a driver. There were also several sharp-eyed guards wearing black suits.
It was obvious that the Chen family was not as tactful as the four family heads in the morning.
They sent people to secretly monitor the movements of Lu Mingfei and his group. As soon as they set off, the other side had received the news and was ready to welcome them.
"Mr. Lu Mingfei, I apologize for not welcoming you in person."
"Master Caesar, I've heard of your great name for a long time. You are indeed very impressive!"
"Miss Mo Tong, and Young Master, welcome home."
"Master Uesugi, please come in quickly."
Chen Fu put on an impeccable and enthusiastic smile, and greeted everyone respectfully. After greeting everyone, his eyes fell on Percy, who was running down from behind.
"This is..."
"Paci Gattuso, Mr. Caesar's assistant."
"So you are Master Caesar's assistant. I'm so sorry." Chen Fu immediately nodded to Percy, being very polite and flawless.
As the direct representative of the Chen family, Chen Weien also followed and acted as a greeter. While Chen Fu was chatting with Lu Mingfei and Caesar, he came over to Nuo Nuo with a smile on his face.
"Nono, my dear sister, welcome home."
As she spoke, she glanced at Ricardo in her arms, not forgetting that there was a little baby with a low sense of presence: "And you, my dear brother."
I almost blurted out the word "key" just now, but luckily I held it back.
"Don't try that on me." Nono glared at him rudely like a mother leopard protecting her cub, then she held Ricardo and turned sideways, blocking his sight.
Although Chen Weien did not directly participate in bullying her when she was a child, many of those who enjoyed bullying her were his followers.
Nuonuo felt that this guy was not a good person either, so he naturally did not treat him well.
Although Chen Weien was frustrated, he didn't feel embarrassed. He just raised his hand slightly and took a step back, signaling her not to be angry.
Chen Fu seemed not to notice this little episode, and said to Lu Mingfei with a smile on his face:
"I'm truly sorry. The Patriarch thought you would arrive around noon, as there was an urgent matter at the group headquarters that needed his personal attention.
However, the head of the family has received the news and is on his way back.
Why don't you all follow me into the hall for some tea? The family tree you want to consult is ready, and I'll have it delivered right away."
When Lu Mingfei heard this, he just felt funny.
Urgent matter? On your way back?
This rhetoric is deceiving.
It was obvious that Lao Deng didn't dare to confront him right away, fearing that he would act out of the ordinary and kill him right away.
That's why I deliberately hid, intending to wait until I found out his intentions and attitude before coming back.
He didn't point it out, but just nodded indifferently: "Okay, the guest should follow the host's wishes."
"Please come this way." Chen Fu bowed and led the way.
The group followed Chen Fu through the neatly trimmed front garden and into the magnificent hall of the main house.
After they sat down, maids in simple cheongsams immediately served them hot tea and fruits. Chen Fu personally held the kettle and poured tea for everyone.
Chen Weien was holding a bottle of milk next to him, with a conflicted look on his face, not knowing whether he should go up and help feed the baby.
I was afraid of being scolded by Nuonuo again. This girl has a sharp tongue.
Soon, a member of the Chen family walked in holding a rosewood box that looked quite old.
She was a young woman with a pretty face, but there was an lingering air of arrogance between her brows.
She handed the wooden box to Chen Weien and quickly scanned the people present. When she saw Nuonuo, a trace of undisguised jealousy and disgust flashed in her eyes.
However, when her gaze inadvertently swept across Eiry, who was sitting quietly beside Lu Mingfei and sipping tea, she suddenly retracted her gaze as if burned, and quickly lowered her head, not daring to look again.
It was as if he was afraid that revealing some inappropriate emotions in his eyes would lead to terrible consequences.
Caesar saw it all.
The Chen family's fawning over Lu Mingfei, their respect for him, their rejection of Nuonuo, their fear of Eri, and their complete neglect of Ricardo...
All of this was like needles piercing his heart, making him realize once again that in this world where the strong prey on the weak and strength is respected, without sufficient strength, no matter how powerful one's family background is, one cannot protect the people he cares about.
They will still be looked down upon and hurt.
Like his mother, like his girlfriend.
A feeling of powerlessness came over him, making the usually proud Caesar feel suffocated and irritated.
His hands on his knees clenched unconsciously, and an idea grew wildly in his mind - he must become stronger!
He recalled the terrifying power Chu Zihang had displayed in the parking lot when he had tortured Fujiwara Nobunosuke in Japan, and his ice-blue eyes became burning.
