Chapter 38

Qin Xue was also in the corner; when she saw Su Yun Jiao, she felt that the white gauze was very eye-catching.

The girls could not refuse such a beautiful evening dress.

Compared to her, she today was only wearing an ordinary dress.

She thought she had already dressed up very nicely today.

She not only had her hair up, but also applied light makeup on her face.

Yet her makeup and styling were far inferior compared to that girl just now.

"When did Lu Chi meet such a beautiful girl? How come we didn't know?"

"Who knows? At first glance she's clearly a wealthy family's Eldest Miss, not only beautiful but also well-mannered."

"Don't you guys notice the handsome guy beside her? He's really handsome."

Another girl's eyes were full of envy.

I don't know when I'll also have such a handsome male companion.

"But why do I feel that this girl's back view looks so familiar?"

The boys from Liu Ban showed a puzzled expression on their faces.

They felt it was familiar, but just couldn't recall where they had seen it before.

Qin Xue lowered her head to glance at her dress, inexplicably feeling inferior, and she hesitantly asked: "When can we go in?"

The driver lowered his head to check the time, saying: "The guests haven't left yet; perhaps you could trouble yourselves to go rest in the backyard for a moment."

Saying that, the driver had the maid at the gate lead Qin Xue and several students from Liu Ban and Yi Ban into the courtyard.

Qin Xue came to Lu Chi's house for the first time; she didn't expect that Lu Chi's home was not only a large villa but also had a separate backyard.

The yard was more than twice the size of theirs.

They had never seen such a scene before, and their faces were full of astonishment.

"Miss Qin, these are snacks that our young master had us bring for everyone; you can have some first, and the kitchen is already preparing dinner afterward."

The maid courteously placed the snacks that no one had eaten in the front hall earlier in front of several people.

"Wow, these snacks are so exquisite; Lu Chi's family really is wealthy."

A girl beside her, seeing this, went over and nudged Qin Xue, saying: "Xiao Xue, congratulations! After dating Lu Chi, your days will be all good! In a few years, won't you be able to call yourself Mrs. Lu?"

Her friend's remark made Qin Xue's face flush: "What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Why are you still shy? Lu Chi likes you, so he'll surely give you the best; that branded necklace he gave you last time isn't cheap at all."

Today Qin Xue deliberately brought the necklace Lu Chi gave her, just so he would notice it.

I don't know…… whether Lu Chi will confess to her today.

Just thinking about this, Qin Xue's face showed a hint of girlish shyness.

If she could become Lu Chi's girlfriend, then afterward…… could she also live a life like his?

Front hall.

Lu Chi, with a cold face, was pulled by his mother to the corner.

Lu Mu, with a dark face, said: "Lu Chi! Is your brain broken? Who let you say that in front of outsiders? Mom finally managed to tie Su Yun Jiao to you, and you actually handed her over!"

"I never liked Su Yun Jiao either; if you like her, you marry her."

From childhood, Lu Mu has been instilling in him the idea that he must marry Su Yun Jiao.

He really doesn't know what's good about Su Yun Jiao, yet his mother likes her so much.

In short, if the Lu Family must have someone marry Su Yun Jiao, he refuses to do so.

Whoever wants to marry, let them marry.

"You! Stop right there!"

Seeing Lu Chi walk toward the backyard without looking back,

Lu Mu stamped her foot in anger.

Most of the people who came today were here for Lu Jingqing.

Lu Jingqing left, and those people also dispersed.

Lu Mu was angry, yet she could do nothing about her own son.

It seems she can only think of another way.

Inside the backyard.

Everyone had been sitting in the backyard waiting for Lu Chi.

After Lu Chi came out, those people immediately stepped forward, and Lu Chi's follower said: "Lu bro, have all the people from your family left already?"

"Hmm."

Lu Chi's mood didn't look good.

Another person couldn't help but ask: "Lu bro, I just saw a particularly beautiful Eldest Miss outside the gate; what's her relation to you?"

"Yeah, yeah, she's absolutely gorgeous; just from her back you can tell she's a beauty, and her profile is unbeatable!"

Lu Chi frowned: "Many socialites from the circle came today; which one are you talking about?"

Seeing that Lu Chi was celebrating his birthday, many socialites from the circle came for it, and Qin Xue's heart beat even harder.

As expected, the Lu Family really is wealthy.

"She has long hair, wavy curls, then wears a white evening dress and a small crown."

Upon hearing the classmates' description, Lu Chi quickly realized the person they were talking about was Su Yun Jiao.

Seeing that, Lu Chi's face darkened.

"Who exactly is she? She's really too beautiful; I don't know if I can win her over."

One of the boys' eyes were full of longing.

In the class, this boy couldn't stand Su Yun Jiao the most.

Lu Chi said coldly, "You have no chance, don't even think about it."

"Why?"

"No reason."

Qin Xue, standing nearby, seeing that Lu Chi had never spoken to her, said, "Lu Chi, your house is really big, though it's a bit cold."

It's evening now, and the rear courtyard is indeed a bit cold.

After seeing Qin Xue, Lu Chi's gaze softened a bit, and he said, "Let me take you to the front hall; everyone has already left."

"Oh right, Brother Lu, these pastries are so delicious, can I take some back?"

"Hmm."

Lu Chi originally wanted these people to clean up the pastries, so he was happy for them to take some away.

These pastries, they have plenty at home, and no one would eat them anyway.

Seeing Lu Chi be so generous, the several classmates nearby were delighted.

These are all high-end goods; ordinary supermarkets don't carry them.

Lu Chi looked at Qin Xue beside him and asked, "Do you like it?"

"Pretty good."

"Then I'll have the back kitchen pack some for you too; there's a lot of pastry today, take it back and eat it slowly."

"... Okay."

Qin Xue blushed, taking this as Lu Chi's concern for her.

In the main hall, the maid had already cleared away some used items.

What remained were some complete dishes and drinks.

"Lu Chi, this is a birthday gift I'm making up for you."

Qin Xue handed the bag in her hand to Lu Chi.

A girl beside them chimed in, "This is something our little Xue prepared all night!"

"Hurry up and look! What is it?"

The boys all gathered together, wanting to know what gift Qin Xue gave Lu Chi.

Lu Chi simply opened it; inside was a red scarf.

The scarf wasn't anything special, and Lu Chi merely pretended to like it, saying, "It's really nice."

Qin Xue blushed and said, "I specially used wool... it's very warm in winter."
