Chapter 883 - Lu Family's Hidden Daughter
Chapter 883: Lu Family’s Hidden Daughter
The man was tall and handsome with the tension of a model’s body. Every step he took and every move he made were as stable and intelligent as an average successful businessman. This was Chu Lui. No matter where he went, he would always be in the spotlight; and he did not even need to intentionally show something to attract everyone’s eyes and gazes.
Xia Yixuan, who held his arm, raised her chin slightly; and the black dress she wore perfectly wrapped around her body. Her legs and waist were thin, her five features pretty. Together with the color her makeup gave her, she might be the most eye-catching one in the venue. Besides, with her, there was Chu Lui who had a self-brought light source; it would be hard for her to not shine.
Chu Lui was just chosen as one of the top few richest men in the world. Even if he did not care much about this—to other people, he was a piece of gold. Even if they scraped off some gold dust, it was enough to feed an average family for a couple of years.
Now, many people were thinking and calculating how they could connect with this person. Once the Min family saw Chu Lui, they all squeezed to the corner and did not dare come out.
At first, the Min family was at odds with the Chu family. Now that Chu Lui had taken away almost five billion of their assets, they did not know how many years it would take for them to earn it back. Besides, they were more afraid of Chu Lui’s revenge. Based on Chu Lui’s vengeful personality, they were afraid that he would bite the meat of the people in the Min family.
Also, they would be bitten quite a fair bit.
Xia Yixuan had always been beside Chu Lui. In the recent half a year, they had been reported quite a few times: the lovers could finally be together or ‘I turned around, but it turned out it was still you’. All of these could almost be written in a stupid CEO novel.
Also, what was true love? It was them.
Chu Lui had never stated his stance on this matter, but based on Xia Yixuan’s movements, to others; she had already prepared to marry into the Chu family at any time.
At this moment, the big door outside was opened once again. Lu Jinrong walked in, but someone else was his partner today. Her skin was already white to the point where it could reflect light and was very eye-catching especially under all kinds of dazzling lights. Her every move and every step seemed to have the glow of pearls, and her shoulder-length hair had also been influenced. Every part below was decorated with a pink crystal. It felt like the woman was only at the beginning of her twenties, and her white mermaid dress reached her heels. When she was walking, it would sometimes reveal her thin high heels of the same kind and the ten toes that were extremely crystal clear.
The woman’s five features were very pretty and distinct; seemingly, she looked kind of similar to Lu Jinrong beside her, especially her eyes that were covered with a light mist. It was not that people did not recognize fireworks; it was the feeling of being immersed in the fireworks.
All the eyes on Xia Yixuan previously had now shifted to this woman in white. They had never seen a woman who could wear white this intricate and beautiful until now. Actually, the biggest reason was that she had flawless skin, whiter and more refined than anyone else’s.
Once the person was intricate, the clothes would definitely complement her.
“Hello, Old Mr. Meng.” Lu Jinrong extended his hand towards Old Mr. Meng.
“Young Master Rong, you’re here.” Old Mr. Meng Mr. Meng laughed and also extended his hand to shake Lu Jinrong’s. Then, Lu Jinrong took out the gift he had prepared earlier.
“It’s a small gift, but I hope you like it.”
“You’re too generous.”
Old Mr. Meng took the gift and passed it to the person beside him as his gaze landed on the woman beside Lu Jinrong.
“Oh, if I’m not wrong, this must be the Ms. Xiaohua that your family watches very tightly. She really looks just like a flower. She looks like your mom. Mm, and she also looks like you.”
Old Mr. Meng’s eyes were very sharp, and it was because he had seen the real Lu Xiaohua a few times before. If not, he would really not be able to recognize her. He might not remember the five features very clearly as the child would grow up, but she looked pretty similar to Lu Xiaohua after all.
Of course, the Lu family never told the public about Lu Xiaohua. Only the Lu family knew that Lu Xiaohua was no longer around, and Jian Qingying thought that her daughter was missing. As for the outsiders, they all thought that the Lu family loved this daughter too much so they kept her overseas and never allowed her to appear in front of the others.
“Hello, Grandpa Meng.” Xia Ruoxin also presented her own gift. “This is my gift for you. I hope you like it.”
“Hehe, I like it. Of course, I do.” Old Mr. Meng loved the obedient girl the most. Even though with Xia Ruoxin’s age, she was no longer a girl.
He had thrown all his presents to the person beside him but only took Xia Ruoxin’s gift. Obviously, he was using his actions to show that he cared for Xia Ruoxin. As for what he cared about? There were a few single grandsons in his family. The Lu family brought up their children well so, of course, he was having ideas on them.
Lu Jinrong saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, but he smiled lightly and did not say anything.
They carried on talking with Old Mr. Meng for a while, and Lu Jinrong only brought Xia Ruoxin out when other people came to give Old Mr. Meng presents. He passed a glass of fruit juice to Xia Ruoxin.
“You seem to have come here before?”
This was an affirmative statement, not a question.
If one did not have the experience, they would definitely be nervous and scared at such a large-scale event. However, she was not, and it seemed like she would participate in such events regularly.
“Sometimes.” Xia Ruoxin placed the glass next to her lips. It was not mixed with flavorings but made from fresh fruits. This was the world of the rich which was different from the rest, and they were never short of money.
Lu Jinrong leaned aside and picked up a glass of red wine. However, his hand was suddenly empty, and a glass of fruit juice was shoved in the wine’s place.
“Mom told you to drink this. The doctor said that your stomach isn’t well these days.”
As Xia Ruoxin was talking, she already placed the red wine on the table. Indeed, Lu Jinrong’s stomach was in a pretty bad state lately, and he had diarrhea for a few days. In the end, he had no choice but to be on a drip for a few days. If he drank alcohol again, he would have had to make a trip to the hospital again.
“You’re such a busybody.” Even though Lu Jinrong said that, he still placed the glass next to his lips and drank the fruit juice instead of the wine.
