Chapter 238: Chapter 204 Your Baby Lu Suddenly Appears Chapter 238: Chapter 204 Your Baby Lu Suddenly Appears Cheng Zhu saw her response, smiled slightly, and put down his phone.
Normally, if Zhou Jielun really does a tour, Hang City is usually one of the stops.
But he never said he would buy tickets for Hang City Station.
There’s nothing wrong with a man and a woman going to a concert out of town together!
However, this would depend on the specific circumstances at the time, playing it by ear.
“Brother, what are you smiling at?” Little Youzi looked up and asked.
“Nothing much, are you full?” he asked.
“I’ll have… half a piece more!” She was actually a bit full, but she just wanted to eat a little more.
“Don’t eat to the point of bursting,” Cheng Zhu laughed.
On reflection, childhood really was better.
When you are little, it doesn’t take much to make you happy. Sometimes, a packet of snacks from the school gate can make you happy for a long time.
Being able to watch TV at home would have you excited for half a day.
As people grow up, the threshold for happiness seems to get higher and higher.
He didn’t start wiping Little Youzi’s mouth and hands with a tissue until she really couldn’t eat anymore.
Meanwhile, Pei Yan, who had left “Youu Come to Play,” met with Xu Shao at a cafe outside of school.
He shared with him all the information he had just gathered.
“Who is Yue Lingjing?” Xu Shao wondered.
“Oh, she’s a beautiful first-year junior with a great temperament,” Pei Yan replied.
But the type he personally fancied the most was the likes of Shen Qingning.
Cool and aloof, with a hint of a mature woman’s charm, tall and with long legs.
“A venture capital firm from Shanghai, huh.” Xu Shao pondered for a moment, feeling the credibility was there.
Pei Yan looked at his former “boss” and asked, “Brother Shao, what are you thinking now?”
“I also went to talk to an uncle in the ‘Venture Capital Circle,’ and he thought the project was decent too, said he would keep an eye on it when the time came.”
“It’s just that my family doesn’t agree, they don’t want me to focus elsewhere, they just want me to help out with the family business,” Xu Shao sighed.
“I can understand that,” Pei Yan said with a smile as he looked at him.
In his heart, however, he cursed him for not knowing when he was well off.
Pei Yan’s family wasn’t poor and belonged to the middle class, but there was certainly a huge gap between him and a rich second generation like Xu Shao.
He had seen plenty of such young masters; one could just enjoy life comfortably by taking over the family business, but instead, the damn thing was to stir things up outside.
And they treated this involvement in the family business as a hassle, actually needing to share it with friends.
At that moment, Xu Shao continued, “If the price really can’t be negotiated down, I’m still short of money and need to borrow a bit from friends.”
“Brother Shao, have you really made up your mind?” Pei Yan was surprised, that’s six million!
Xu Shao sighed, “Cheng Zhu thinks too small, never considered opening a branch or financing.”
“So, the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it is for me.”
“Besides, through some connections, I’ve contacted a mall in Shanghai, a good location will be available soon, right next to the cinema, perfect for a claw machine arcade.”
“But the 600 million is definitely him quoting high, my initial limit was 500 million, and now it feels like the future path is laid out, I don’t care about the extra few hundred thousand.”
“I will find a time to talk to him in the next couple of days,” Xu Shao said.
Pei Yan listened beside him, feeling complicated.
He had disliked Cheng Zhu for a long time.
So, he kind of wanted to see Xu Shao buy the store and grow the business to make Cheng Zhu regretful.
But Cheng Zhu was about to pocket over five million soon!
That’s over five million!
A freshman managed to make several million so easily!
When this comes out, it would probably shock quite a few people in the school, wouldn’t it?
Xu Shao looked at Pei Yan and said with a smile, “Pei Yan, do you want to follow and invest a bit?”
“Me? Invest?” He hadn’t expected Xu Shao to say that.
“I can’t give you much, but a little bit is possible. And I’ve already found out that the landlord of this store is Shen Qingning, he’s renting from Shen Qingning’s shop,” Xu Shao said.
“Huh?”
There was such a thing!
Shen Qingning was the landlord!
“I… I’ll think about it,” Pei Yan was quite tempted.
But as a college student who relied on living expenses, where did he have the money?
It seemed he had to discuss it with his family.
…
…
Inside Star City, Cheng Zhu was still unaware that Pei Yan had done the work of a loudspeaker.
He had just taken Little You for a stroll and bought her a new pair of shoes.
Just when he was about to take her to buy a dress, his phone in his pocket buzzed.
Upon checking, it was indeed a WeChat message from Lin Lu.
The energetic girl directly sent a selfie, but she covered her face with a cartoon sticker.
In this selfie, she also put up a peace sign, giving a thumbs up next to her face.
In the background was a milk tea shop construction site.
“Baby Lu, the foreman, checked in on day one at the site,” she sent a message.
Clearly, she had come to Star City without saying a word and then went to supervise the construction site for Cheng Zhu.
The heiress of the renovation design company personally came to supervise the work.
And her tone of voice and the action in the picture were always so full of energy.
Speaking of which, he always felt that being with Lin Lu made his mood involuntarily improve.
Cute girls are indeed the most magical creatures in the world.
He said to Little You, “Your Sister Lu is also in the mall.”
“Huh? Let’s find her! Brother, take me to her!” Little You immediately got excited.
Little did she know that Cheng Zhu was recording her at that moment.
After sending Lin Lu the video of his sister, he leisurely typed, “Little You and I are also in Star City.”
“Where are you, where are you! Should you come to us, or shall we find you?” Lin Lu was always so enthusiastic and straightforward.
“Come to the fourth floor, I was about to take her to buy a dress, and you can come help pick one out,” Cheng Zhu typed.
“Got it! Wait for me five minutes, the countdown starts now!”
As Cheng Zhu watched his phone, he found it amusing, “Starting the countdown now, huh.”
Soon, he saw Lin Lu waving at them from a distance.
“Little You! Hello! Hello!”
Since she came to the construction site to supervise today, she dressed more simply, wearing a gray hoodie, black jeans, and canvas shoes, and she had a duckbill cap on her head, with her hair also tied up.
Even though it was a simple outfit, it exuded youthful energy from the inside out.
What left Cheng Zhu speechless was that Little You immediately broke free from his hand and ran towards her Sister Lu.
Indeed, the voice actor girl had unparalleled charm with children.
Which kid wouldn’t like a beautiful sister who can imitate cartoon characters?
Cheng Zhu shook his head with a smile, and had no choice but to follow.
Later on, he seemed rather superfluous, just listening to their chatter on the sidelines.
Lin Lu was also impressive enough to be able to chat so animatedly with a kindergartner, and she was very patient with children, with strong interpersonal skills.
The three of them arrived at a children’s clothing store, and Cheng Zhu simply sat down and let Lin Lu take his sister to choose dresses.
In the end, they were supposed to buy only one, but Lin Lu thought another one looked good too and offered to buy it for Little You with her own money, resulting in Cheng Zhu buying both dresses in the end.
After buying the dresses, Lin Lu looked even happier than if she had bought new clothes for herself.
“What’s next, Cheng Zhu?” Lin Lu asked.
Cheng Zhu had a sudden idea, replied, “I was thinking of buying myself a fall outfit, but maybe next time.”
“Don’t, we’ve got nothing to do right now, let’s go to the men’s shop downstairs and have a look!” Lin Lu was excited.
Cheng Zhu eventually had to pretend to be reluctant and agreed to her plan.
He wanted her to help him pick out the clothes, to help him match them.
Occasionally doing things that normal friends wouldn’t do, getting her used to her future role early, was a good approach.
The clothing brands inside Star City weren’t low-end, but luckily Cheng Zhu wasn’t short on cash now, so he should treat himself better from time to time.
Lin Lu was quite good at choosing, selecting a short black leather jacket for him.
This black leather jacket had a loose fit, with wider shoulders and sleeves, but it was short overall and didn’t cover the entire hip area.
This design accentuated long legs and if the wearer was too thin, it also made the shoulders seem wider, serving a refining purpose.
But the problem was that Cheng Zhu was already broad-shouldered and long-legged, wearing this leather jacket further highlighted these advantages.
Plus, he had a bit of a roguish charm, so when he put on this black leather jacket, even Lin Lu felt dazzled.
She initially wanted to compliment him on looking handsome, but the words were at the tip of her tongue, and she cheekily bragged, “It’s still me who picks the best!”
The female sales associate nearby immediately showered Cheng Zhu with praises.
“Beauty, your boyfriend has such a physique that our store’s jacket seems custom-made for him.”
“This style, some people who are too thin or too fat can’t pull off his vibe.”
“See, this leather jacket was even worn by our brand’s ambassador on the runway, I think your boyfriend looks no less than a star in it.”
“By the way, beauty, we’re out of stock of this size, and there’s only one piece left in all of Hang City…”
This sales associate thought that once she impressed the girlfriend, if she said it looked good, the man would usually buy it.
From beginning to end, she only said to Cheng Zhu, “Handsome guy, your girlfriend has really good taste, picking out our brand’s runway piece.”
Lin Lu listened to her repeated references to boyfriend and was initially slightly taken aback, but didn’t explain anything.
Cheng Zhu looked at himself in the mirror and was quite satisfied.
He wasn’t very picky about clothes, because generally, anything he wore wouldn’t look too bad on him.
But under such satisfaction with the jacket, he still deliberately asked, “Do you think it looks good?”
“It’s handsome!” Lin Lu blurted out as she looked at Cheng Zhu, and then quickly added: “This jacket.”
Combined it was: It’s handsome… this jacket.
Cheng Zhu smiled slightly; he just had to subtly guide these little flirtations in life and didn’t need to point out she was already smitten by him.
Only then did he take off the jacket and hand it to the salesperson, “I’ll take this one, then.”
Both of them hadn’t realized that the salesperson’s words had all been heard by Little You sitting there.
To the little girl, it translated into, “Babbling, your boyfriend, babbling, your girlfriend, babbling…”
Her round eyes started to move back and forth between the two standing in front of the mirror.
This savvy little girl switched her gaze between Sister Lu and her own brother.
Boyfriend and girlfriend, these two keywords, she… heard them all!
…
(ps: Second update, ask for monthly tickets!
And since Baby Lu’s birthday is on December 25th, I hope everyone will like and send hearts to Baby Lu in the [Characters] section, and small donations can also go directly to the character. If she reaches second-class star status before Christmas, Qi Dian can celebrate her birthday.)
