When Su Ci heard her mother's words, she blinked and said, "Mom, you know He Ermeng has been pursuing me, but I know I don't like him. When He Ermeng is in front of me, I don't have any feelings for him, and I don't even want to pay attention to him. But Lu Zhe is different."
She told Su's mother: "I feel happy when I see Lu Zhe, and my heart even beats faster. I may not know what love is."
Su Ci pointed to her chest and said, "But I won't lie here."
Su's mother was completely stunned by her daughter's words.
Even though she and her husband were in love when they were young, they experienced many misunderstandings. They were awkward and helpless, but they finally got married.
She didn't expect that her daughter, whom she always thought was emotionally awkward and a little arrogant, was actually more honest and passionate about her feelings than anyone else.
Mother Su was surprised, but her heart sank. "Ci Ci, are you and Lu Zhe together?"
Su Ci was stunned by her mother's question. Neither she nor Lu Zhe had confirmed their relationship!
In Su Ci's mind, she already regarded Lu Zhe as her own property, and Lu Zhe must think so too.
But suddenly thinking of that person's cold look, she became unsure again.
When Mother Su saw her daughter's stunned expression, she knew that she and Lu Zhe's boy were probably not together yet. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Ci Ci, does Lu Zhe like you too?"
Although in Su's mother's eyes her daughter was so outstanding that no one would dislike her, and her daughter liked Lu Zhe, and the young man could not possibly dislike her daughter, she still asked an extra question.
Su Ci pursed her lips and couldn't answer. She had never asked Lu Zhe this question.
Lost! Lost!
Mother Su was even more surprised when she saw her daughter couldn't answer, "Lu Zhe doesn't like you?"
In her eyes, her daughter is perfect in every way. Although she doesn't want her daughter to be with the young man Lu Zhe, she knows that her daughter likes him but he doesn't like her daughter, so she is conflicted.
How could anyone not like her daughter
"I don't know." Su Ci didn't hesitate any longer. "No matter if he likes me now or not, he will definitely like me in the future. Anyway, we will definitely be together."
She is Lu Zhe's tool, and Lu Zhe is her tool. She is so beautiful, and Lu Zhe is also handsome, and everything about them meets her aesthetic standards. In her opinion, she and Lu Zhe are a perfect match, a match made in heaven!
Thinking of this, Su Ci smiled and hugged her mother, "Mom, don't worry, Lu Zhe will like me."
Su's mother was in a dilemma.
She was not a person who valued family background. Even though this young man Lu Zhe came from a poor family and was an orphan, he had a good character and looked good enough for her daughter. However, he was suffering from a terminal illness.
My daughter must know this.
Su's mother knew her daughter's personality. Although she was brought up to be delicate and gentle, she was not soft-tempered at all. Instead, she was very opinionated. This was the first time she liked someone. If she and her husband tried to stop her, it might backfire.
Mother Su calmed herself down. Now it seemed that it was a good thing that Lu Zhe didn't like her daughter. At least the two of them were not together for the time being, and it was still not too late to stop them.
... ...
All the goods in the computer store have been transferred and the store has been sold. This time, Boss Fang has made up his mind to start a business. Although starting a business is very risky and he may lose all his property, he feels at ease when he looks at the young man with a cold expression next to him.
He felt that he would not make a mistake in choosing Lu Zhe. He felt that Lu Zhe was a talented person. Even if he lost the bet, the worst that could happen was that he would come back to set up a stall. He and his son Xiao Kuaile would be able to survive.
"Are these all your luggage?" Boss Fang looked at Lu Zhe in surprise. He saw a backpack on his back and a large suitcase in each of his hands.
He and his son Xiao Kuaile only have one big suitcase, but Lu Zhe actually has so much luggage
As far as I can remember, Lu Zhe didn't have many clothes. He only had a few sets of clothes, two of which were school uniforms. But considering that they would settle down in City B in the future, I guess Lu Zhe was planning to move all his belongings there.
"When my son heard about the move, he thought we were going on a trip. He has been smiling since last night. And when he heard that Xiaoci was also in City B, the kid couldn't wait to go there." Boss Fang looked at Xiao Kuaile playing nearby, his face showing a father's deep doting on his son.
"This silly child doesn't know that his sister Ci is not someone he can see whenever he wants." Boss Fang glanced at Lu Zhe, sighed, and walked in to continue packing his luggage. They were going to fly to City B in the afternoon.
Lu Zhe and Boss Fang arrived in City B at night. They had booked rooms in a hotel before, and the two rooms happened to be adjacent to each other.
This was Xiao Kuaile’s first time taking a plane. The little guy was very excited at the beginning, but fell asleep towards the end.
"Xiaozhe, you should go to bed early. We will go to sign the contract for the venue early tomorrow morning and set up the company as soon as possible." Boss Fang held his sleeping son in his arms, his face full of fatigue, but his eyes were filled with longing for the future.
"Well, Uncle Fang, you should also go to bed early."
As Lu Zhe put away his luggage, his cell phone rang. Without giving it much thought, he already knew who was on the other end of the phone.
Lu Zhe answered the video call, and the girl's overly beautiful face immediately appeared on the screen.
On the screen, the girl blinked and teased him deliberately: "Lu Zhe, you answered the call so quickly this time, have you been waiting for my call?"
"Yeah." Lu Zhe responded lightly, and the girl's eyes on the screen brightened, with a smug look in her eyes, as if to say that she was not wrong.
"Have you arrived in City B now?" Su Ci knew that Lu Zhe's flight was in the afternoon, so she calculated the time before calling him.
Lu Zhe looked at the girl on the screen. Under the light, his cold features softened a little. "Well, we're here."
"My parents want to come and thank you. When are you free?" Father Su will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and she also wants to see Lu Zhe.
Lu Zhe had heard from Su Ci before that her parents were grateful for his life-saving grace and wanted to meet him.
He thought for a moment, "I'm not free tomorrow, how about the day after tomorrow?"
Tomorrow he and Boss Fang will meet with the person in charge of the venue to sign the contract.
"Okay, then I'll tell them." Su Ci said with a smile.
For every video, Su Ci chose the most perfect angle for herself and turned on the warm yellow desk lamp next to her. She knew that the soft light would make her already snow-white face even more beautiful.
When others video chat with their boyfriends, they might deliberately put on makeup, but she really had no makeup on, and her face was very close to the phone screen.
She had a hidden agenda so that Lu Zhe could not ignore her stunning beauty.
However, the boys across from her seemed to have poor eyesight as a habit and were completely unaware of her beauty.
Su Ci raised her eyelids slightly, with evil intent hidden in her eyes, and said, "Today my mother asked me if I like you."
The girl's words made Lu Zhe tighten his grip on the phone, and his dark eyes looked at her intently.
At this time, Su Ci, who was originally sitting, lay down on the bed. After taking a shower, she was wearing a white round-neck sleeveless pajamas. The neckline was a bit loose. When she lay down, a large area of fair skin was exposed under the neckline.
Lu Zhe glanced at her casually, his eyes darkened, and he immediately looked away, "Su Ci, sit down."
"I've been holding the phone all the time, and my hands are so tired. It's more comfortable to lie down like this." Su Ci tried her best to seduce the boy. She specially picked this nightgown with a loose neckline but not too revealing.
Lu Zhe said in a calm tone, "Sit up, or I'll hang up the video."
Su Ci: ...
She felt like she was going to die of anger. Was this person made of stone? His mind was so rigid, he was totally unromantic!
Su Ci knew that what Lu Zhe said was true. She gritted her teeth and sat up angrily. She looked at him with resentment, "Sit up."
Lu Zhe then raised his eyes to look at Su Ci, only to see that the girl had a puffed up face and was looking at him unhappily.
Lu Zhe raised his thin lips and chuckled, "Be good."
Don't think so many bad ideas all day long.
Su Ci was dissatisfied. What was wrong with her
"How did you answer?" Lu Zhe asked her.
Su Ci was a little angry now and didn't want to tell him. However, when she met the dark eyes of the boy on the screen, Su Ci said spinelessly: "Do you want to know?"
"Hmm." He wondered.
Su Ci's frustrated heart suddenly revived, and a little pride appeared between her brows, "If you say something nice to coax me, I will tell you." She had never heard Lu Zhe praise her.
The warm yellow light fell on the girl's face, which was as white as jade. Her dark eyes were shining with light, as if they were dotted with broken stars. Lu Zhe's Adam's apple slid up and down, and he whispered, "Tuantuan, I want to know."
Su Ci felt that she was finished.
The other party didn't even praise her, but just a look from her made her feel her heart tremble.
Su Ci didn't even want to have any bones, let alone backbone. She said, "I'll tell mom that I like you."
The girl was honest and straightforward. Lu Zhe looked straight at her and called out softly, "Tuantuan."
Normally, girls like to pester him, ask him for kisses all the time, and like to play tricks on him. He thinks that when he loses control for her, it's just a joke.
Hearing the girl's indirect confession, Lu Zhe couldn't control himself. He felt his heart twitch violently and it hurt a little.
Su Ci was thick-skinned. After she finished speaking, she looked at Lu Zhe with bright eyes. "My mother asked me what our relationship was, but I didn't know how to answer. I couldn't tell her that we were in a relationship where we exchanged saliva."
She added: "Lu Zhe, I said I like you, now it's your turn."
One time per person, that's only fair.
Thinking of Lu Zhe's next words, she became a little nervous. Subconsciously, she straightened her back and her ears pricked up.
Come on, confess, she's ready.
Su Ci also felt that it would be great if Lu Zhe could be by her side now, so that she could kiss him after Lu Zhe confessed to her.
The girl's eyes sparkled. Lu Zhe pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "Tuantuan, you know I have ALS."
Su Ci nodded, "I know, but that's not the problem. That's not what I want to hear."
"My disease is the biggest problem." Lu Zhe looked at her. "The limbs and body of ALS patients will gradually atrophy, become numb, weak, and paralyzed. Moreover, I only have 3-5 years to live."
The boy's deep voice became a little hoarse, "Tuantuan, are you sure you still like me like this?"
He always knew that he didn't have long to live, so he could play with her and do things she liked with her. She liked him to stay with her, and he could also stay in City B.
Lu Zhe didn’t dare to think too much about the rest.
I can't even think about it.
The smile on Su Ci's lips disappeared, and her eyes were full of seriousness, "I like it."
She told Lu Zhe, "Your illness is not a problem, Lu Zhe, you can live a long life."
Listening to the girl's coaxing words, Lu Zhe chuckled, "Tuantuan, I'm serious."
"I'm serious too." Su Ci explained: "As long as I kiss you, you..."
What she wanted to say next, she couldn't say it. Su Ci knew that she was not allowed to say it.
She gritted her teeth angrily, "Anyway, you won't die, you just need to be with me."
Lu Zhe looked at her with dark eyes, which were filled with tenderness. "Yeah."
He would stay by her side as long as she wanted him to, as long as he could move.
... ...
The next day, Lu Zhe and Boss Fang brought Xiao Kuaile out as well. After all, Boss Fang was worried about leaving him alone in the hotel.
The two went to Hesheng Building and waited to meet the person in charge.
"Why hasn't the person in charge come yet?" Boss Fang checked the time. It had been 20 minutes since the time they had agreed on. "Will the other party cancel the appointment?"
Lu Zhe: "It shouldn't be. A well-known industry like Hesheng Building shouldn't be so discredited. Uncle Fang, let's wait a little longer."
Five minutes later, the person in charge finally arrived.
The person in charge was quite nice. "I'm sorry, you two must have waited for a long time. I'm really sorry, but something delayed us."
Boss Fang's expression eased a little, "It's okay, Manager Chen, can we sign the contract now?"
"Wait a moment, our second young master is in charge of this contract, he will be here soon, please wait." Manager Chen received a call from Mr. He, who said that the second young master had gone on vacation and needed more training, so he asked the second young master to learn from him.
The signing this time is very simple, and it is just a very small contract. There will be no mistakes if the second young master is in charge.
In fact, it was just to let the second young master pass the time.
Boss Fang and Lu Zhe had no choice but to suppress their patience and continue waiting for the second young master that Manager Chen mentioned.
Soon, He Ermeng, who had already parked his car, walked into the building, his handsome features full of wanton expression.
It was not the first time that the employees in the company saw the second young master of the He family. Seeing him with his hands in his trouser pockets, looking handsome and casual, everyone could not help but take a few more glances at him.
He Ermeng pushed open the door of the conference room and walked in, ready to finish his work and leave. The old man just didn't like him being idle, and wanted to torture him in various ways. Now he even asked him to learn from others. It was really boring. If he had this time, he might as well think of how to pursue Su Ci.
He strode in. "What do you want me to sign?"
"The second young master is here." Manager Chen welcomed him with a smile.
Boss Fang and Lu Zhe looked at the person who came and found that this second young master was the second young master of the He family whom they had met before.
Looking at Lu Zhe sitting next to him, He Ermeng's eyes fixed. He stood beside the conference table and did not take a seat. "Is it you?"
He Ermeng cast a fierce look at Lu Zhe and sneered, "Manager Chen, are all cats and dogs qualified to sign a contract with our Hesheng Group now?"
After seeing Lu Zhe at the fire scene, He Ermeng had someone investigate Lu Zhe's information. He knew that Lu Zhe was not only an orphan, but also suffered from a terminal illness.
Such a person is not worthy of standing with Su Ci, let alone being liked by Su Ci.
"Second Young Master, this..." Manager Chen was confused, "These two have already agreed to rent an entire floor in the Tianzi Building."
He Ermeng raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Zhe arrogantly. He said word by word: "We won't rent it to you!"
He was just a dying orphan. He could kill him with just a flick of his finger.
"We have already negotiated it. Could it be that the Hesheng Group is so dishonest?" When Boss Fang heard that they would not rent to them, he frowned subconsciously.
Manager Chen did not expect such a situation to happen. He reminded: "Second Young Master, the contract is ready."
He Ermeng's eyes turned fierce, and he looked at Manager Chen coldly, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear me say I don't want to rent? Why sign a contract?"
With his chin raised, He Ermeng looked directly at Lu Zhe, who had a calm expression. "Don't even think about renting any place, whether it's from our Hesheng Group or somewhere else. As for Su Ci, she's mine, so stay away from her."
Lu Zhe raised his eyes and met the other person's fierce gaze. He replied calmly, "She is her own."
No matter how He Ermeng looked at Lu Zhe, he felt unhappy. "Are you looking for death? Oh, I forgot, even if you don't want to die, you will die soon."
"Second Young Master, please stop bullying me." Boss Fang couldn't help but speak out. Not only did the other party break his promise, but he also made personal attacks and poked at my weak spot. It was too much.
"How is this bullying?" He Ermeng disagreed. He warned Lu Zhe, "Go away. If I find you pestering Su Ci again, I will make you regret it."
Lu Zhe chuckled: "You are wrong, it's not me who is pestering her, it's her who needs me to stay by her side."
All of a sudden, He Ermeng on the opposite side was almost furious.
As they left the building, Boss Fang was still cursing. If it hadn't been for Manager Chen and the security guard holding him back, the crazy second young master of the He family would have continued to pester Lu Zhe.
"Xiao Zhe, I didn't expect you to be so good at fighting." Boss Fang laughed when he thought of the second young master He who was hit by Lu Zhe's punches. He really deserved it.
Fortunately, everyone knows that it was He Ermeng who started it first. He who starts it first is the meanest. Even if the He family pursues the matter, they are unreasonable.
Lu Zhe said in a deep voice: "Uncle Fang, I'm sorry, because of me, I can't sign the contract."
"It's okay, we'll look for another place. City B is so big, it's impossible for all the businesses here to be the He family's." Boss Fang held his son's hand, still full of motivation.
Lu Zhe nodded, but his eyes darkened a little.
... ...
"Ci Ci is not ready yet, we can go out now." Su's mother had someone prepare the car and was ready to set out to find Lu Zhe.
She asked people to prepare a lot of gifts, showing her sincerity.
Su Ci changed into a beautiful dress. The bean paste-colored dress made her skin look as white as snow. The dress was tailor-made for her, and the waist-slimming design made the girl's waist look so slender that it seemed almost imperceptible.
She was wearing plain white shoes with soft soles, and the red rope on her slender ankle was very eye-catching.
"I can go now." Su Ci applied a tangerine-colored lip gloss specially to meet Lu Zhe.
The beautiful lips become more attractive.
At this time, Su Zhiyuan also came down.
"Brother, are you going too?" Su Ci thought he had already gone to the company.
Su Zhiyuan touched her head and said, "You go with your parents. I have something else to do at the company. I will thank Lu Zhe again next time I have a chance."
Su Ci looked at her brother's outstretched hand and saw that the life value on the inside of his wrist was less than two months.
She suppressed her complicated thoughts and nodded, "Okay."
Su's father and mother were sitting in the front car, while Su Ci, little Suning, and little Tiancai were sitting in another car.
After staying at the Su family for a few days, the little genius is no longer as nervous as before.
The Su family is different from other wealthy families. There is no strict and inhumane fighting. The atmosphere in the Su family is very warm and approachable.
Su's mother is gentle and kind-hearted. Su's father is cunning in business, but he is not serious when he comes home. As for Su Zhiyuan, although he has a strong aura as a person in power, he is an approachable older brother at home.
Not to mention the little baby Suning. Now he has a playmate, Xiao Tiancai, who is about the same age. He sticks to Xiao Tiancai all day long and they get along very well.
Even now when they were sitting in the car, little Suning chose to sit next to little Tiancai. The two little kids huddled together and no one knew what they were talking about.
Su Ci sent a message to Lu Zhe, and they had already set off.
Lu Zhe has not found a suitable house yet, and now he and Boss Fang are temporarily living in a hotel. Compared with a hotel, the environment here is indeed not that good.
He looked at the room with standard uniform configuration, two chairs, a coffee table, a TV and a TV cabinet, very simple.
Lu Zhe walked to the side and knocked on Boss Fang's door.
He said, "Uncle Fang, I want to borrow two chairs from your room."
Boss Fang originally planned to go out with Lu Zhe to find a venue today, but Lu Zhe said he was not free today, and then he learned that Su Ci's parents were coming to see him.
"Okay, I'll help you move it."
"Thank you, Uncle Fang."
"There's no need to be polite between you and me. However, will Su Ci's parents dislike the environment here? How about we find a better place outside and get a private room so we can eat and talk?" Boss Fang thought that the Su family was a top wealthy family, and the small hotel they were staying in was too simple. He was worried whether the other party would mind.
Lu Zhe: "It's okay, they know where I come from."
Excessive concealment would make one appear insincere.
Boss Fang sighed and helped Lu Zhe move the chair over.
Su Ci asked Lu Zhe for the address, and soon the car stopped outside the hotel.
Suddenly, several luxury cars arrived outside the small hotel. In particular, several tall and strong men in black suits and with expressionless faces got out of the cars, who looked like bodyguards. Such a large scene immediately attracted the attention of many passers-by and guests coming in and out, and even the staff inside the hotel were alarmed.
What’s going on today? A big shot is visiting this small hotel
The two receptionists felt uneasy and hurried to greet them.
"I'm looking for the occupant of room 308," Su Ci said.
The receptionist was amazed by the girl's beautiful face. She subconsciously held her breath and quickly said, "Please follow me."
As the receptionist led the way, she secretly glanced at the family and couldn't help but marvel in her heart, what a divine look they had.
The couple, who were obviously a couple, were well-maintained even at their age, and they exuded a nobleness that money could not cultivate. And the girl next to them, needless to say, if this face entered the entertainment industry, she would definitely outshine all the other female stars.
As for the two little boys walking happily in front, they are so cute and adorable.
Do all rich people look so good
Arriving in front of Room 308, Su Ci signaled to the receptionist that she could leave, and she pressed the doorbell on her own initiative.
In less than a few seconds, the door was opened from the inside.
"Lu Zhe, I'm here." Su Ci looked at him with a smile.
"Come in." Lu Zhe opened the door completely. He looked at Su Ci's father and mother behind him, "Uncle Su, Aunt Su, welcome."
Su Ci stood beside Lu Zhe and let her parents in. She quietly touched Lu Zhe's hand with her fingers behind her back and looked at him with a smile in her eyes.
The boy was wearing a white shirt, which was different from his usual cold and rigid black attire. It looked more casual and cheerful, and his features looked even more handsome and elegant.
Su Ci knew clearly how many sets of clothes Lu Zhe had, and the clothes he was wearing now were definitely newly bought.
Su Ci couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.
I guess he really attaches great importance to this meeting with his parents and even bought some new clothes.
At this time, Father Su, who was standing outside the door, looked at the young man in front of him with shock.
He and Lu Chen of the Lu family have been sworn enemies since childhood. He has even seen the other party wearing split pants. He can tell at a glance that the young man in front of him, named Lu Zhe, has the shadow of Lu Chen in his brows.
Father Su was shocked.
Lu Zhe is an orphan, and Lu Chen also lost his son. It can’t be such a coincidence that Lu Zhe is Lu Chen’s son, right
Mother Su saw her husband standing there motionless, so she pulled him and said, "Let's go in."
Father Su suppressed the astonishment in his eyes and walked in with his wife.
The two little dwarfs behind him followed their parents in. When they passed by Lu Zhe, Xiao Tiancai politely greeted Lu Zhe, "Hello, Brother Lu Zhe."
He liked this older brother very much, as he came from the same orphanage as him.
Little Suning didn't know Lu Zhe, but he was a polite boy. He imitated the little genius and shouted, "Hello, Brother Lu Zhe."
Su Ci looked at her parents who walked in. She bent down and tapped the foreheads of the two little kids respectively. "Don't call me brother Lu Zhe."
Xiao Tiancai and Xiao Suning looked at their sister in confusion.
Su Ci raised her eyes and glanced at Lu Zhe. She lowered her voice, but the volume was loud enough for Lu Zhe to hear, "You should call him brother-in-law."
