Fall in Love with the Substitute - Chap 47
Chapter 047 Lu Mingchen’s Birthday Party (Part 2)
The Lu family was very large and had many visitors. It took Su Yichen a long time to find Gu Hanzhou’s whereabouts.
“Running around again?” Gu Hanzhou looked him up and down, his eyes full of disgust. On such a big occasion, it was so indiscriminate, and it was embarrassing for him.
“I’m sorry, sir, I just…” Su Yichen apologized habitually.
“Okay, what do you look like in a panic?!” Gu Hanzhou scolded softly with cold eyes.
Mrs. Lin covered her mouth and chuckled: “Hanzhou, don’t be too harsh to him, at least…”
Outsiders can understand what is left unfinished.
Su Yichen lowered his head and obediently allowed Gu Hanzhou to scold him. He was obedient but did not dare to resist, making outsiders jealous.
“Such an obedient little canary doesn’t know how to talk back. If you want me, I’ll raise one later.”
“Pull him down! If you’re looking for someone like him, you might as well find someone who’s pretty and coquettish, and have fun with it. Su Yichen’s looks don’t mean much.”
“I think it’s not that he looks unattractive, but that he keeps his head down and is timid. He looks unconfident and has no temperament. A man relies on a golden horse and a saddle. If he dresses up well and has a little confidence, where will he stand? , His facial features are definitely extraordinary.”
…
Gu Hanzhou and Mrs. Lin toasted and entered the magnificent hall of the Lu family.
The head of the Lu family, Lu Boting, is entertaining several friends from the business and political circles. They are all in suits and leather shoes and are leaders. They are about forty years old, with slightly white hair on the temples. Each one is older and more sophisticated than the last.
Lu Boting turned his head, and what he saw was a resolute and graceful face. He could vaguely see his handsomeness when he was young. He had white hair on the temples. He looked about forty years old, and he had the fierceness and charm that had been on the battlefield for a long time. He smiled politely and said, “Mr. Gu.”
“Uncle Lu.” Gu Hanzhou stepped forward to toast the elder, “Long time no see. You are in good health lately.”
“Okay, very good.” Lu Boting gave the junior a drink in return. He was a good drinker and drank down the glass of wine in his hand.
Gu Hanzhou chuckled lightly, “Today is Xiaochen’s birthday. I gave Xiaochen a gift. I have already sent it to Xiaochen’s room. I hope he likes it.”
Lu Boting smiled faintly: “Xiao Chen naturally likes it. He is a child with a bad temper. He stayed with the Gu family before. Please help Hanzhou to take care of him for me. I hope he will not cause trouble to the Gu family.”
The implication is that I hope the incident at Gu Qingzhou’s birthday party can be written off.
“No, no, the Lu family and the Gu family are family friends, and their friendship lasts forever. How could Xiaochen cause trouble for the Gu family? I welcome him to live in the Gu family at any time.” Gu Hanzhou smiled and greeted Lu Boting politely.
As a junior, he was in awe and respect for Lu Boting.
The two exchanged some polite words, and Gu Hanzhou gave Lu Boting another gift, which was placed on the coffee table in the living room. The expensive gift was very conspicuous.
“Come as soon as you come. Why bring so many gifts?” Lu Boting was happy and not angry. Even if he smiled, there was no trace of smile in his eyes.
Gu Hanzhou smiled and made good relations with him.
Lu Boting looked at Pei Suyue on the side and asked about the other person’s situation with a smile.
“I heard that your wedding is coming soon. I must invite the Lu family to the engagement party.”
“I will.” Pei Suyue chuckled, “I will definitely send the invitation letter to the Lu family for my fiancé and I’s engagement party. I hope my uncle will not refuse.”
“The marriage between you two is a big deal. I will definitely attend.” Lu Boting chuckled. He looked at Gu Qingzhou again, asked a few questions, and exchanged pleasantries for a long time.
Finally, Lu Boting slowly focused his attention on the most inconspicuous Su Yichen at the end. He was dressed in clean white, with a pitiful and thin figure, and long bangs covering his eyes and half of his face. He recognized this person at a glance as the Gu family’s canary.
He was also the target of being framed by Lu Mingchen.
——Su Yichen.
Lu Boting was not impressed by him, but when he saw him for the first time, he felt a strange feeling from within. He was a clean, dust-free child who was so thin that it made people feel distressed.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Su Yichen quickly said hello: “Hello, Uncle Lu, I am… Su Yichen.”
Lu Boting nodded and smiled, returning the greeting.
Gu Hanzhou stood in front of Su Yichen and chuckled: “Uncle, this is my assistant. He’s not very sensible.”
Lu Boting smiled and waved his hand: “You are a very good boy. I will not get involved in the affairs of you young people.”
He had heard a little bit about all the exciting things going on in the Gu family. Although he felt that it was wrong for Gu Hanzhou to find a substitute even though he liked Susu, he couldn’t control that much about young people’s affairs. What Lu Boting wants to do most right now is to spend time with his wife every day.
Gu Hanzhou shook his wine glass, thinking about something.
Su Yichen lowered his head slightly. This was the first time he saw Lu Boting, the head of the Lu family. I have a new understanding of this rumored big shot in business and politics.
“dad!”
Lu Mingchen’s voice came from behind.
He hurriedly ran over, deliberately pushed Su Yichen away, smiled and held his father’s wrist, smiling very well-behavedly: “Dad! I’ve packed it up! Does it look good?”
“It’s nice to look at.” Lu Boting’s smile faded a lot when he saw his son deliberately trying to bully others.
When Su Yichen was pushed away, he just lost his balance and his waist hit the corner of the table, causing his face to turn slightly pale in pain.
“Su Su.” Pei Suyue subconsciously went to support him, her gentle voice was so soft that only Su Yichen could hear it.
“I’m fine.” Su Yichen lowered his head and rubbed his waist.
“Xiao Chen.” Lu Boting’s eyes were full of reprimands and warnings, “Have you forgotten everything your mother taught you? How can you still be so ignorant!”
Lu Mingchen shrank his head, lowered his head and admitted his mistake obediently: “I’m sorry, Dad.”
He looked at Su Yichen again, chuckled and said, “Susu, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.”
You mean it.
Su Yichen’s eyes were dull.
Although Lu Mingchen was apologizing, his eyes showed no apology at all. Instead, he became more arrogant and arrogant.
Because this is the Lu family, his territory, and it’s his birthday party, so if he gets into trouble, as long as it’s not too serious, nothing will happen.
Su Yichen was too lazy to argue with Lu Mingchen.
“It’s okay.” Su Yichen said slowly.
Lu Mingchen raised his proud smile again and took his father to chat.
Gu Hanzhou turned around and warned in a low voice: “Don’t embarrass me again.”
“…Yeah.” Su Yichen responded softly. After today, he can sever ties with Gu Hanzhou. This is the last day of patience.
The birthday banquet held by the Lu family was much more luxurious than that held by the Gu family.
Su Yichen was alone, wanting to spend this boring day. As he walked around, he saw a woman in a jet black cheongsam sitting across the lake.
The woman has an extraordinary demeanor and is incompatible with the bustling birthday party. She is gently rubbing an object in the shape of a golden lock in her hand. She lowers her head and stares at the valuable object in her hand. A gust of wind passes by, and the cheongsam skirt rises slightly, bringing with it a burst of loneliness and longing. .
“Ma’am, it’s windy here, please go to the front hall.”
Uncle Jiang came over with his cloak, his eyes filled with distress.
“Bo Ting is thoughtful there, so I won’t go there.” Huo Nanyuan raised her head, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and put away the precious golden lock in her hand.
When Uncle Jiang saw this, he sighed. The golden lock was a replica of the golden lock worn by the young master. But after all, it was not the original one. The real golden lock had been lost long ago and disappeared into the vast sea of people.
Madam misses the young master very much. Whenever it is the young master’s birthday or memorial day, madam always sits here alone in a daze.
How much does Madam miss her little son who died in infancy?
I probably dream about it every day, keeping me awake all night.
Later, Lu Boting hired a psychiatrist to relieve Huo Nanyuan’s worries, and then she slowly began to have a normal routine. But missing the child who died in infancy became even more profound.
Although the Lu family is normal on the surface, the master, the wife, and the eldest young master all have a common pain that cannot be touched. No one mentions it, but no one dares to forget it.
The Lu family is a famous family.
But he couldn’t even protect a little baby.
Uncle Jiang kept sighing in his heart.
Huo Nanyuan crossed her arms and wiped away her tears. Her eyebrows were raised, and her aggressive beauty and unbeatable beauty added a different kind of unrivaled elegance to her body.
Huo Nanyuan noticed the young man across the small lake from the corner of her eye.
The young man was looking in this direction. From a distance, he could tell that he was a handsome young man. Huo Nanyuan knew a lot of people. She removed all the people she knew from her memory one by one, but she could not find this person. information about people.
Jiang Bo said: “It’s him.”
Huo Nanyuan narrowed her eyes slightly: “Do you know Mr. Jiang?”
Uncle Jiang smiled and said: “He is Su Yichen, the one next to Mr. Gu…”
When he said this, Huo Nanyuan knew.
Gu Hanzhou had a substitute, which was no secret in Jiang City.
What’s more, Lu Mingchen had foolishly framed the other party recently. Huo Nanyuan was quite impressed by this name, but she had never seen it before.
When I saw him today, he looked like a clean child, but I didn’t understand why he was willing to be Gu Hanzhou’s adopted love child or someone else’s substitute.
There are many things in the world that are incomprehensible.
Huo Nanyuan glanced at it from a distance, then turned around and said, “Go back to the room, I have to clean up Chenchen’s small room.”
“Yes, madam.” Uncle Jiang smiled and nodded.
Young Master Chenchen’s small room was still prepared for him when he was just born. It can be lived in by babies, children, and teenagers. Ever since Master Chen Chen left… this room has been taken care of by Madam herself, and the items placed in it are all Master Chen Chen’s relics.
Today is not just Lu Mingchen’s birthday.
What’s more important is Master Chen Chen’s birthday.
The Lu family is looking forward to this day very much.
Su Yichen leaned in front of the railing, facing the wind, and quietly looked at this magnificent and exquisite ancient building. He calculated the prices in his mind. None of his three properties were as expensive as this one.
I want to make more money.
No.
It’s big money.
One day, he can become a billionaire CEO with his own hands and buy countless houses like this.
Su Yichen was scared.
He wants to make real capital.
The dream is already close at hand, not far away.
