Chapter 905: Chapter 904: Lu Qingqing’s Inferiority
"Your house is so luxuriously decorated! You must have quite a bit of savings, right?" Lu Qingqing asked curiously.
"I’m not wealthy at all, and it’s because of you that I’ve lost a year’s worth of living expenses. Do you think I’m rich?" Su Changfeng replied playfully.
Lu Qingqing looked incredulous, thinking to herself that soone who could live in such a luxurious mansion claiming to have no money and losing only a few thousand yuan a year on living expenses was utterly unbelievable. Plus, why would soone lie to a little girl like herself?
"Sorry, I’m a bit tired today. Why don’t you rest here tonight? If you’d like, you can tell
about your enemies tomorrow," Su Changfeng said as he opened a guest room, the room where Qi Yiyun used to stay.
"Really? Does this an you’re planning to help ?" Lu Qingqing wasn’t concerned about where she would sleep tonight but was more focused on having soone help her take revenge. After all, this was her long-held wish, so how could she not care?
"Let’s talk about this after I’ve rested. I’m too exhausted today to think about anything else," Su Changfeng said and then returned to his room.
Lu Qingqing cautiously entered the guest room. As soon as she stepped through the door, a fragrant aroma filled her nose. The scent was exceptionally pleasant, and she enjoyed it thoroughly. However, she speculated that a woman must have lived here before; otherwise, where could such a delightful fragrance have co from?
Since her parents left her, Lu Qingqing hadn’t experienced such a good living environnt. Although she stayed in an orphanage for so ti after her parents passed away and t her current friends there, their living conditions were vastly different from this. Therefore, even in such a luxurious room, she tossed and turned, finding it hard to sleep, feeling that she didn’t belong here or deserve to live in such a place.
As such, Lu Qingqing opted to sit on the floor rather than lie on the bed, which felt like a sponge. She intended to sleep this way for the night, a sharp contrast to her usual deanor. However, this behavior also revealed that despite being lost in life, the little girl still had a kind heart.
Su Changfeng lay on the bed, which felt like a marshmallow, unable to sleep while many thoughts filled his mind. He initially thought he had finally bid farewell to one woman, but unexpectedly, in just a few days, another little girl moved in. It seed like fate, destined to entangle him with different won throughout his life.
The next morning, when Su Changfeng got up and walked into the living room, he found Lu Qingqing sitting on the floor.
"What are you doing? Why are you sitting on the floor?" Su Changfeng asked in confusion.
Startled, Lu Qingqing awoke with a shy smile and said, "I’ve grown accustod to the floor. Suddenly lying on a bed like a marshmallow, I couldn’t sleep."
Hearing this, Su Changfeng didn’t press further. He just figured Lu Qingqing had developed such a habit and didn’t force anything.
"Can you cook?" Su Changfeng asked casually.
When asked if she could cook, Lu Qingqing felt embarrassed. When her parents were around, she never had to cook. After they were gone, she had neither the ti nor energy to cook, busying herself with survival every day.
"Got it. I’ll freshen up first, and then we can eat out," Su Changfeng said with a smile. After all, in his view, Lu Qingqing was just a child, so he was quite lenient with her.
Lu Qingqing followed Su Changfeng to the sink, standing nearby for a while, hesitating as if she wanted to say sothing.
Su Changfeng glanced at her and asked, "What’s up? Anything you want to say?"
Feeling slightly nervous, Lu Qingqing mumbled, "I just wanted to ask how I should address you."
"Oh, my na is Su Changfeng!"
"Chang Feng as in the wind that blows?" Lu Qingqing cautiously asked.
Su Changfeng smiled and nodded.
Lu Qingqing continued, "Can I call you Brother Changfeng?"
Since Lu Qingqing wasn’t of age yet, it was normal for her to call Su Changfeng that way, but for him, it gave him goosebumps. After all, it was the first ti anyone had called him that.
He wanted to refuse but feared hurting her, so he deliberated a bit before saying, "Otherwise, you don’t..."
But before he could finish, Lu Qingqing quickly responded, "I think it sounds nice, so let’s settle it that way, Brother Changfeng. My na is Lu Qingqing, but you can call
Qingqing or Qing’er."
"Don’t think calling
that will make
help you take revenge," Su Changfeng, seasoned in the ways of the world, understood what Lu Qingqing was thinking.
Realizing he saw through her, Lu Qingqing boldly declared, "I have no intentions of using that to get closer to you. I genuinely want to get along with you and will wait until Brother Changfeng is willing to help
seek justice."
Su Changfeng was taken aback by her words. Despite her harsh life and mixing with a gang of ruffians, she remained innately kind, her innocence buried within.
The two continued their exchange in the bathroom for about ten minutes, before leaving the villa one after the other, ready to grab breakfast outside.
However, once they sat in the restaurant, Lu Qingqing kept her head unusually low, lacking her usual confidence.
Indeed, Lu Qingqing often went without als, sotis the whole day. Now, being able to eat breakfast in such a nice restaurant was beyond her imagination, so sitting there, she couldn’t help but feel a bit inferior.
