Of course, that's what she asked most these past few days.
What kind of people are your parents?
"Don't worry, they are very kind."
"Did you talk to them about this before?"
"As I said yesterday, they were all very happy."
"..."
I just said that yesterday!
Looking at Xu Feng's calm and expressionless face.
Lu Yingying simply couldn't remain as calm as the man in front of her!
...
Three days later, the group headed to the Xu family's residence.
After being comforted by Xu Feng for a few days, Lu Yingying felt a little more confident.
Of course, her nervousness was mostly internal; she had no problem maintaining a proper demeanor in front of others.
On the contrary, Lu's father was taken aback when he learned of the destination.
Isn't that where the Xu family lives?
I don't know why, but ever since that conjecture that I overturned because of my wife's words back then, it has started to stir again in my heart.
When evening came, they arrived at the private room of the upscale restaurant that the Xu family had prepared for the banquet. They were greeted by Mr. and Mrs. Xu, who had come out to welcome them.
Lu's mother was momentarily stunned, but Lu's father recognized her immediately.
Isn't this the famous Xu family's head couple? Xu Zijiang and Yu Jiu? The two are known for their loving relationship in high society!
Lu's father stared intently at Xu Feng.
Sure enough, his initial guess was correct; Xu Feng was indeed the heir of the Xu family!
My wife has ruined me!
If he had remained firm in his belief and investigated further, he would have found the correct answer long ago. However, because of his wife's words, he abandoned the idea and naturally had no intention of further verification. Now it seems that he has been delayed for far too long.
When Lu's father looked at Lu Yingying again, he saw that Lu Yingying still didn't realize anything.
He knew that his daughter probably didn't know either.
That's terrifying. This kid is incredibly cunning; he didn't utter a single word.
He now understands what the phrase "train yourself" meant a few days ago.
He just didn't want to be bound by the family's glory, so he deliberately kept a low profile and didn't let people know that he was the heir of the Xu family.
The exposure of this truth did indeed lead to an instant reversal of power.
For a moment, even Mr. Lu became much more reserved.
Their daughter seems to have gone a bit too far in finding them a son-in-law like this.
At first, Lu's mother and Lu Yingying did not know why Lu's father's attitude had changed so much.
But soon, after being introduced by the secretary of the chairman of the Xu family.
In an instant, she stared wide-eyed at Xu Feng.
However, Lu Yingying's years of family education came in handy at this time.
The tension had vanished; she was now more surprised and angry at having been kept in the dark for so long.
So much so that they forgot to be shy.
When facing Xu Feng's parents, they all appeared poised and quite proper.
It's clear that the two of them are very satisfied with them.
The Xu family never interfered too much with Xu Feng's ideas; they supported whatever he decided.
Furthermore, they were quite satisfied with Lu Yingying's family background.
Although the Lu family is not as wealthy as the Xu family, they are still considered a well-off family, making them a good match.
Moreover, Lu Yingying is different from the average rich heiress.
Soon, the conversation at the table turned to the topic of marriage.
"Xu Feng, when do you plan to get engaged?"
"Let's see what Yingying thinks first. Anytime is fine."
As he spoke, Xu Feng turned his head and smiled at Lu Yingying, a smile that could make everything around him pale in comparison.
However, Lu Yingying kicked him under the table, but the man remained unfazed.
Then, Lu Yingying smiled and said.
"I've only met a few people today, I want to get used to it a bit more..."
Xu Feng nodded and echoed her sentiments with a few biased words, giving Lu Yingying plenty of face.
Of course, anyone could see how much he doted on Lu Yingying.
As for Mr. and Mrs. Lu, they naturally prioritized their daughter's feelings.
To be honest, even they need some time to adjust.
Both families need to get to know each other better.
The meal tonight was plentiful, but Lu Yingying found it rather unappetizing.
As the banquet drew to a close, the two families began chatting amongst themselves, discussing business matters or reminiscing about their children's childhoods.
Instead, Lu Yingying and Xu Feng left first.
...
She left the restaurant and walked alone in the summer night breeze.
This city is somewhat unfamiliar to her, but it is also very likely to be the city where she will live for a long time in the future.
Looking at the bright lights and bustling city around her, she thought of Xu Feng's words and all the little moments they had spent together.
Lu Yingying felt somewhat wronged.
I feel so stupid.
Why be so reserved? She should have just asked earlier. Being kept in the dark makes her seem a bit silly.
Of course, she rarely talked about her parents, but that was because Xu Feng knew she was from the Lu family.
Xu Feng had never told him that he was a member of the Xu family.
Looking back, some of the things I did before seem like I was just being presumptuous.
But most importantly, he had kept it from me for so long.
Behind her, she heard familiar footsteps, and Lu Yingying immediately recognized who they were.
Lu Yingying didn't turn her head and quickened her pace.
However, the tall, long-legged man behind him caught up with almost no effort.
Seemingly giving Lu Yingying no chance to react, he grabbed her shoulders with both hands and flipped her over in an instant.
Are you angry?
His gaze met hers, and there was an indescribable emotion in his eyes.
Lu Yingying felt a complex mix of emotions.
However, the person in front of her had already taken her hand, their fingers intertwined, gripping it tightly.
Lu Yingying felt a pang of sadness and tears welled up in her eyes without her noticing.
Seeing her cry made him feel as if something had stabbed his chest, a mixture of soreness and numbness.
“I know you have your reasons, but…”
"Feel sorry."
Xu Feng reached out and pulled her into his arms.
"I thought that after all this time we've spent together, you would..."
Lu Yingying was furious.
"That's why I'm so angry! It's because you kept this from me for so long!"
Xu Feng's expression was full of seriousness.
"Because I've heard what you said, I don't want you to develop a prejudice against me because of it."
"I want to prove something to you through our relationship over the past few years."
Lu Yingying was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized it was because her parents kept introducing her to rich second-generation men, something she had expressed her disgust for.
She said this industry is too chaotic, with infidelity and extramarital affairs being commonplace. There is no true love in this industry, and what she wants is a relationship that lasts a lifetime.
Even though her parents are part of this circle, they are an exception, having built their wealth from scratch and not abandoning their wives after becoming rich. Therefore, she prefers to date a simple person, support his career, build a life together from scratch, and then retire behind the scenes to be a wife and mother.
Of course, Xu Feng's parents are the same. They started from scratch and are still very much in love. She has heard how much they love each other and they are a role model for everyone!
Lu Yingying was speechless for a moment.
The script she wanted seemed to have been half-realized, but the male lead's identity had changed completely, becoming one of the people she had initially targeted.
It seems... he can't be entirely blamed.
Lu Yingying was well aware of Xu Feng's feelings for her. She felt the same way about him... Mutual affection was the most fitting description.
I don't know why, but the pent-up frustration in my heart seemed to dissipate a lot all at once.
I couldn't even muster the anger anymore.
As Xu Feng watched her expression change, a smile gradually appeared on his lips.
Then, Lu Yingying opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something.
Xu Feng had already guessed what she was going to say, and quickly placed a kiss on her lips.
"I love you, and I will spend my whole life proving it."
