After a while, Lu You also came to the courtyard house.
She had obviously dressed up meticulously today. Her elegant black and white striped shirt paired with tight ripped jeans made her look very capable. She had also chosen pointy Martin boots of the same color as her trousers. She was already tall, so she looked even taller.
Also, Lu You had delicate light makeup on her face. Her creamy skin was white with a tinge of red, making her look even more delicate and moving.
"This courtyard is not bad! How much did you buy it for? "Lu You asked as soon as she saw Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Over a hundred million! I bought it when the opportunity was right! "
Lu You's eyelids couldn't help but twitch. A hundred million was spent so casually. This guy's business was very big in the past two years!
She still remembered the first time she met Xia Ruofei. That was when Xia Ruofei saved her grandfather, Professor Tian, who had a heart attack on the streets. Then, Professor Tian and Tian Huilan held a banquet to thank Xia Ruofei.
That meeting wasn't very pleasant. Lu You still remembered that Xia Ruofei's business had just started. There seemed to only be a small amount of Taoyuan vegetables for sale.
How long had it been? Xia Ruofei's company was already so popular … Lu You couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
"Miss Lu is here!"
Feng Jing smiled and walked over to greet Lu You. Along with Feng Jing was the spokesperson for the Heart Nourishing Soup, Dafu.
"Hello, Sister Feng!" Lu You smiled and greeted.
Dafu also asked with concern, "Lu, is your head really okay?"
During the accident on set, Dafu also saw the terrifying scene of the entire arm falling down with her own eyes. She was almost scared out of her wits.
Later, when she heard Feng Jing say that Lu You wasn't injured, Dafu couldn't believe it.
Today, seeing Lu You appear alive and kicking with no injuries on her forehead, Dafu finally believed Feng Jing's words.
"I'm fine!" Lu You looked deeply at Xia Ruofei and smiled. "I'm just lucky!"
Dafu's eyes were filled with curiosity. "Could it be that you know Huaxia Kung Fu? I heard that the monks in Huaxia know a very powerful Kung Fu called Iron Head Kung Fu … "
Xia Ruofei laughed loudly when he heard that and said, "Miss Dafu, you guessed right! Lu You is a martial arts master in Huaxia. Not only does she know the Iron Head Skill, she also knows the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Skin Shirt. She is invulnerable! People in Jianghu call her Abbess Miejue … "
Lu You was ashamed and embarrassed. She pinched Xia Ruofei and said, "Do you want to die? What Miejue Shitai … "
Xia Ruofei threw his head back and laughed as he ran away.
Feng Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at Xia Ruofei who had run to the side. She thought to herself that this guy was really … She was obviously a delicate beauty, but he had to call her Abbess Miejue …
She went forward to hold Lu You's arm and said to Dafu, "Dafu, don't listen to our chairman's nonsense. He's just joking with you!"
Then Feng Jing said to Lu You, "Miss Lu, ignore him! Let's go and barbecue something to eat! "
Lu You pouted and turned to look at Xia Ruofei. Seeing the unconcealable smile on Xia Ruofei's face, she couldn't help but glare at him coquettishly. Then, she followed Feng Jing and Dafu over to the barbecue.
Wu Shuheng was supposed to be the host today, but other than being in charge of paying the bill for the chef and the hotel, he was very low-key. He just sat at the side and chatted with Zhao Yongjun.
Because the real protagonist was Xia Ruofei, and the people who came today were all Xia Ruofei's friends.
When Xia Ruofei took out his phone and took pictures of his friends in the courtyard, Song Rui walked over and said, "Ruofei, why isn't Yiyi here yet?"
Xia Ruofei put away his phone and said with a smile, "How would I know!"
"Could it be that she can't find the place?" Song Rui said. "This girl has no sense of direction …"
"Don't we have a GPS?" Xia Ruofei said nonchalantly.
"She can get lost even with a GPS!" Song Rui said. "No, I have to go out and take a look. I have to go to the entrance of the alley to welcome her …"
"Calm down … calm down …" Xia Ruofei said with a smile. "Isn't it still early?"
As long as it involved Zhuo Yiyi, Song Rui seemed to become uneasy.
Song Rui said, "I'd better go out and take a look …"
Just then, a girl in a trench coat came out from behind the projector wall. She looked at her phone in confusion, as if to confirm that she had found the right place.
Song Rui suddenly showed a look of joy. He waved and shouted, "Yiyi, over here!"
The person who came was Zhuo Yiyi, who Song Rui was infatuated with. She looked up when she heard Song Rui's voice. She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him. She reached out and patted her chest, saying, "I didn't find the wrong place this time … The two courtyards I just found were other people's houses. One of them even had a big wolf dog. I was scared to death …"
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but laugh. Song Rui wasn't overly concerned. Zhuo Yiyi really had no sense of direction!
Song Rui had already walked up quickly to greet her. As the host, Xia Ruofei naturally had to go up to greet her.
"Xia Ruofei, I heard that you bought a courtyard house. You're really rich!" Zhuo Yiyi said casually. "At least you still have a conscience. You still thought of me!"
Xia Ruofei glanced at Song Rui with a faint smile and said, "Today, Song Rui specially …"
Song Rui's face tightened when he heard this. He quickly gave Xia Ruofei a look.
Xia Ruofei then smiled and said, "Song Rui specially reminded me that you also work in Beijing. He told me not to forget to invite you!"
Song Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Xia Ruofei was deliberately speaking to tease him, but there was nothing he could do.
Zhuo Yiyi casually put her arm around Song Rui's shoulder and said, "You're really something!"
Xia Ruofei almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
He also led Zhuo Yiyi into the second courtyard. Xia Ruofei introduced her to his friends. The invited guests had all arrived, and the party officially began.
It wasn't a formal party. Everyone gathered in the open space next to the pool to barbecue and chat.
Zhao Yongjun arranged for the chef to prepare a lot of ingredients. At the same time, Wu Shuheng drove back with a lot of beer.
The chefs kept barbecuing all kinds of ingredients on the barbecue grills. At the same time, Xia Ruofei's friends could also help themselves.
Everyone ate barbecue and chatted. From time to time, they would hold large beer glasses and drink. The atmosphere was very relaxed.
Xia Ruofei also secretly observed and found that the relationship between Zhuo Yiyi and Song Rui was indeed good. However, it was obvious that Zhuo Yiyi regarded him as a male best friend. She talked to him casually and sometimes even touched him. However, there was no romantic relationship between them.
Xia Ruofei could not help but secretly laugh. Song Rui, this guy, was known to have picked up countless girls. Who would have thought that when he finally fell in love with a girl, the girl he picked up turned out to be his good brother …
Lu You obviously also noticed the strange combination of Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi.
When Zhuo Yiyi just came in, Lu You saw another beauty and thought that it was also Xia Ruofei's confidante! However, after paying a little attention, she could see that Xia Ruofei wasn't very familiar with her. However, Song Rui was very attentive.
Xia Ruofei sat on a deck chair under the pomegranate tree, holding a large glass of beer in his hand. There was a plate of grilled chicken wings on the stone table next to him. He drank and ate skewers while looking across the pool at Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi. There was a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden.
Lu You had also slipped over with a glass of beer. She sat on the stone bench next to Xia Ruofei and pouted at Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi. She asked, "What's the situation with those two?"
Xia Ruofei turned to look at Lu You and said with a smile, "Can't you see? They are in love with each other! "
Then Xia Ruofei deliberately made a look of realization and said, "Oh! I almost forgot. Song Rui is your fiancé, right? You're not jealous, are you? "
Lu You's face suddenly turned red. She put the beer glass on the stone table and twisted Xia Ruofei's arm fiercely. She said coquettishly, "Fiancé my ass! If you talk nonsense again, I'll tear your mouth apart! "
Xia Ruofei quickly begged for mercy. "Let go, let go! The beer is going to spill … "
He deliberately shook his hand a few times, and the beer spilled on his clothes and pants.
Only then did Lu You let go of Xia Ruofei. She laughed and said, "You deserve it! Let's see if you dare to talk nonsense again! "
Xia Ruofei wiped the beer on his body and muttered, "He is your fiancé …"
Speaking of this, Xia Ruofei saw Lu You's eyebrows raised again. He quickly stopped and said, "Let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it …"
Lu You glared at Xia Ruofei and took a sip of beer. Then, she said softly, "Yesterday, my mother talked to me. She said … If I really don't like Song Rui, she won't force me."
"Oh …" Xia Ruofei responded subconsciously. Then, he came back to his senses and said with his eyes wide open, "What? Auntie Tian really said that? "
Lu You glared at Xia Ruofei and said, "What do you mean? It's as if you don't want me to get rid of this problem! "
Xia Ruofei quickly smiled and said, "No, no … It's mainly because I'm too surprised! Lu You, congratulations! You finally don't have to marry someone you don't like! "
Lu You nodded and said lightly, "Thank you …"
Xia Ruofei glanced at Lu You and asked curiously, "Shouldn't you be very happy? Why do I feel that you … "
Lu You couldn't help but look at Xia Ruofei bitterly. Then, she lowered her head and thought to herself, It's all because of you, you idiot …
After a while, Lu You said lightly, "It's nothing. I'm very happy! It's just that I don't show my emotions … "
"That's true!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Lu You said, "Tell me about Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi!"
"I didn't expect Miss Lu to be so gossipy!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Forget it if you don't want to talk about it …" Lu You was a little embarrassed.
"No, no, no, I'll talk!" Xia Ruofei said quickly, "Their story! It's simply a legend … "
Then, Xia Ruofei told Lu You about the first time Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi met each other, and about the two of them.
Lu You listened attentively. Soon, Xia Ruofei told her about how Zhuo Yiyi had successfully entered the Yanjing Museum with Song Rui's help. Then, Song Rui had made a move on her, but he had unexpectedly become Zhuo Yiyi's best friend.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but laugh.
However, Lu You did not smile. Instead, she revealed a thoughtful expression.
In fact, Lu You's thoughts were very intense at the moment.
She was very clear about Zhuo Yiyi's situation. If Song Rui really got together with Zhuo Yiyi, he would face unprecedented resistance.
Moreover, according to Xia Ruofei's description, Song Rui was very serious this time and was not just playing around. If that was the case, Song Rui had clearly thought it through and understood that he would face the wrath of his family.
But he still did it.
Lu You said in her heart, "Even Song Rui, a playboy who is usually not serious, can do anything for love. Why don't I dare to face my heart and always be overcautious?"
Lu You's beautiful eyes moved. Her teeth gently bit her lower lip, and her mind was racing.
After Xia Ruofei finished talking about Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi, he turned to look at Lu You and couldn't help but ask, "Lu You, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? "
"I'm fine …" Lu You answered subconsciously, but then she immediately looked up at Xia Ruofei and said, "No, I'm not!"
Xia Ruofei was confused by Lu You's words. He said with a wry smile, "Miss Lu, are you possessed? Why are you talking so incoherently? Brother Wu's house is not clean, is it? I spent more than 100 million … "
Lu You glared at Xia Ruofei angrily and said, "You're the one who's possessed!"
Then Lu You's pretty face suddenly turned red, and then quickly returned to normal. She stared at Xia Ruofei's eyes seriously and said word by word, "Xia Ruofei, I like you!"
Xia Ruofei suddenly seemed to be petrified.
Although Lu You's voice was very soft, Xia Ruofei heard it like a big bell, which made his heart tremble. At the same time, he subconsciously looked at the crowd across the pool. When he found that they were not paying attention to this side, he was slightly relieved.
Then Xia Ruofei immediately felt a headache. He stammered, "Lu You, I …"
"Listen to me." Lu You said very calmly, "I've never dared to face my heart, but today I don't want to escape. I don't know when it started. Maybe it was you who cultivated Molan for us, maybe it was you who risked your life to protect me on the plane, or maybe it was you who saved me from the bar … Anyway, I know that I've fallen in love with you, but I've been unwilling to face it …"
Xia Ruofei sat in a daze, keeping his mouth slightly open.
Lu You continued to say in one breath, "I've always had such scruples because you already have a girlfriend, and my best friend, Jiang Yue, is also obsessed with you …"
Speaking of this, Lu You showed a self-deprecating smile and said, "I've always said that Yue Yue is timid. In fact, I'm not even as good as her. At least she never hid her love for you in front of me, but I always pretended to be disdainful of you …"
Then, Lu You's expression became much firmer. She looked bravely into Xia Ruofei's eyes and said, "Today, after listening to Song Rui's story, it touched me a lot. I decided not to escape anymore. I must tell you what's in my heart!"
Xia Ruofei was stunned for a long time before he said with a wry smile, "Lu You, I'm really honored … But you know … I already have a girlfriend …"
"So what?" Lu You shrugged and said, "That's your business. As long as you're not married, I have a chance to compete with Ling Qingxue."
Xia Ruofei's expression at the moment was very interesting. He felt that it was a bit ridiculous. He had just told the story of Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi. How could it have stimulated Lu You so much?
Was it retribution for talking about others behind their backs?
But how could it be retribution to be liked by such a beautiful woman with an excellent family background, a hot figure, and a beautiful appearance?
Lu You took a deep breath and said, "Xia Ruofei, don't feel pressured. It's my business that I like you. Although I will compete with Ling Qingxue, I'm not the kind of woman who will pester you. I won't deliberately affect your life! Phew … I feel much better after saying it out loud! "
Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly. You feel much better, but now I'm in a dilemma.
Originally, although Xia Ruofei had noticed it, as long as they didn't say it out loud, he could at least pretend that he didn't know. But now, there was no room for escape.
Xia Ruofei sighed softly and said, "Lu You, in fact, you don't have to …"
Lu You smiled easily and interrupted Xia Ruofei. She said, "Well, take your time! I'm going to drink with Sister Feng and the others! "
Lu You got up and walked two steps, then turned back and said with a smile, "By the way, in fact, I think you don't have to worry at all, because even if I didn't say this, your love life doesn't seem to be so calm!"
After that, Lu You looked at Feng Jing, who was not far away, and said, "For example, Manager Feng, and I heard that Uncle Song's daughter, Weiwei, seems to be …"
Speaking of this, Lu You pursed her lips and smiled. She said, "Anyway, there's no need to worry about it, right?"
After that, Lu You smiled at Xia Ruofei and walked briskly to Feng Jing and the others.
It seemed that after saying all the things in her heart, she was relaxed all over.
Lu You was relaxed, but Xia Ruofei felt a lot of pressure. He sat on the chair and stared at the water in the pool in a daze.
He had mixed feelings in his heart. He couldn't tell what he was feeling. There were worries, helplessness, and of course, a little pride. In short, it was a very complicated feeling.
