Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

So what are you looking at this time? Gucci slippers?

Looks like I'll have to remember to wear socks when I'm with this guy from now on!

Lu Mingfei was secretly amused by Xiao Tiannv's hidden girlish heart when he suddenly saw her take a step back. Then he heard her ask him what he was looking at. When he looked up, he met Xiao Tiannv's gaze, which seemed to look at him as if he were a pervert. He immediately realized that Xiao Tiannv had misunderstood something.

Damn it, I'm not a pervert!

"Would you believe me if I said I was looking at your Gucci slippers?"

"Heh." The little fairy, who had anticipated Lu Mingfei's excuse, sneered with her hands on her hips, "Do you think I'd believe that?"

Just as Su Xiaoqiang was about to stand on the moral high ground and fiercely criticize Lu Mingfei, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the spiral staircase directly below. Although the person had deliberately lightened their footsteps, the sudden sound of footsteps still seemed very abrupt in the empty villa.

Is Uncle Li bringing the tea?

Su Xiaoqiang curiously took two steps back, tilted her head, and looked down from the open corridor.

"..."

Just then, I saw my father looking up at the top of the stairs on the first floor.

Su Xiaoqiang was taken aback, surprised that her father had returned so early, but then she realized an important issue.

Lu Mingfei was still in his own home, standing right in front of him!

Fortunately, he was standing in the corner of the hallway, right in front of his room. He couldn't be seen from the stairs on the first floor.

In a moment of desperation, the young lady disregarded any semblance of girlish modesty and decisively pushed open the door to her boudoir, shoving Lu Mingfei inside.

"Find a place to hide inside, and don't make a sound!"

The little fairy made a "shh" gesture at Lu Mingfei.

Just as I closed my room door and turned around, the "thump-thump-thump" of footsteps stopped at the top of the stairs on the second floor.

For the first time in nearly a year, Su Xiaoqiang and Su Zhenqi, father and daughter, looked each other in the eye.

……

Chapter 115 hasn't caused a major mistake yet, has it?

The villa belonging to Su Xiaoqiang in the Yinyi Lingshu residential community.

Su Xiaoqiang and Su Zhenqi looked at each other in bewilderment.

A subtle atmosphere. A father and daughter, whose relationship has been strained and who have lost contact for a long time, stand facing each other in the open corridor. On the surface, they both pretend to be nonchalant, but in reality, they are both full of their own thoughts.

Su Zhenqi didn't know how long it had been since he had looked directly into his daughter Su Xiaoqiang's eyes like this.

It seems that after she entered middle school, or rather, even earlier, after her mother passed away and he refused to take her to her mother's funeral, his relationship with his daughter began to gradually drift apart.

Later on, they might not even exchange a single word each day, and they were like two strangers living under the same roof.

The only interaction they have each day is a brief eye contact with their daughter as she hurriedly leaves with her schoolbag on her back while they eat breakfast at the restaurant in the morning.

"I never imagined that we would face each other again in such a setting."

Su Zhenqi thought to himself, and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Although he was somewhat overwhelmed with emotion when he learned downstairs that his daughter had brought a strange boy home, Su Zhenqi's anxiety subsided somewhat after hearing from the housekeeper, Old Li, that the two hadn't done anything inappropriate.

Of course, it was only calm enough to prevent things from getting out of control, although he really wanted to catch that little brat hiding in his house right away.

However, in order to save face for his daughter and to seize this rare opportunity for communication between father and daughter, Su Zhenqi decided not to expose his daughter for the time being. He put on the serious mask he had developed in the business world and pretended to know nothing.

That's just how adults are; sometimes they can be quite clumsy. They often feel lost when facing children.

They wanted to murmur but couldn't find the words; they wanted a hug but could only grasp at thin air. In front of the children, it was as if they were the children themselves.

After a long time of looking at each other, Su Zhenqi racked his brains but couldn't think of anything to say. His ability to communicate with his daughter had been depleted long ago.

It wasn't until a minute or two later that Su Zhenqi nodded and asked, "Have you had lunch?"

The moment Su Zhenqi asked the question, he regretted it. It was a very stupid question, like forcing a topic when there was nothing to say.

Normally, Su Xiaoqiang would have responded with a sarcastic retort to her father's remarks, or even ignored them altogether.

But she herself had something to hide, which is why she didn't just turn around and leave.

Just kidding, how could such a big wild man be hiding in her own girlish boudoir!

Although her father had rarely entered her room since she started middle school, the little girl still felt guilty, so when faced with her father's inexplicable question, she inexplicably nodded and replied, "Mm."

At the same time, his eyes unconsciously glanced towards his room.

This subtle movement, of course, did not escape Su Zhenqi's notice. Su Zhenqi's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes suddenly glared fiercely.

Good, good, you little rascal! You ran off to my daughter's room while I was away, didn't you?

Su Zhenqi felt like a hundred or a thousand tigers were roaring inside him, wishing he could rush into his daughter's room right now, drag that guy out, tear him to pieces, and then pour the water into a cement pillar and sink him into the sea.

But thinking of his daughter in front of him, Su Zhenqi managed to control his emotions, though his fists, hidden behind his back, were clenched tightly.

"By the way, I heard from Lao Li that you only scored 805 points in the last entrance exam? You ranked over 400th?" Su Zhenqi suddenly thought of a good topic and asked.

"Ah, yes."

"What happened? I remember you were among the top ten in the city when you took the high school entrance exam and got into Shilan Middle School, right?"

"To be precise, I'm seventh in the city," Su Xiaoqiang said. She didn't know why her father had suddenly become concerned about her grades.

She's just feeling guilty, which is why she answers every question her father asks.

"Then why did you only get such a low score this time?"

"He was originally the top student in the whole school. It's just that he forgot to write his name and student ID number when he took the Chinese exam this time, so his score of 805 did not include the Chinese score."

In fact, Su Zhenqi had already heard everything about the exam from the housekeeper, Lao Li.

However, in order to start a conversation with his daughter, Su Zhenqi nodded and said, "I see. Be more careful next time you take the exam, and don't be so careless."

"understood."

Su Xiaoqiang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the conversation should be over. But it seemed her father had mistakenly taken the role of the "confidant father" and insisted on continuing the conversation.

"Shall we sit in the living room and chat?" Su Zhenqi said. "I've been so busy with work lately that I haven't had much of a heart-to-heart talk with you. We're free this afternoon, so let's have a chat, just the two of us?"

"Wait, isn't that right?"

Su Xiaoqiang's original plan was to quickly appease her father, then, while he was away, pull Lu Mingfei out of the room and escape. Unexpectedly, the old man grabbed her and wouldn't let her leave.

We can only pray that it doesn't take too long.

Walking through the hallway into the living room, Su Zhenqi naturally adopted a leader's posture, leaning back at the far right of the sofa.

The reason Su Zhenqi chose to sit here was because he could clearly see his daughter's bedroom door from here, in case the boy took the opportunity to escape.

Su Xiaoqiang sat down respectfully.

"It's been more than half a month since school started, right? Are you adjusting well to the new school?"

"Not bad." Su Xiaoqiang shrugged, not looking at Su Zhenqi.

Have you made any new friends?

Su Zhenqi crossed his hands and placed them on his knees.

Old Li said that the boy hiding in Qiangqiang's room is her classmate from Shilan Middle School, meaning they probably only met at the beginning of the semester.

So if you want to get information about that kid out of Qiangqiang, you should try to get it from him indirectly, starting with Qiangqiang's interpersonal relationships at the new school.

However, it's only been half a month since school started, and that kid has already completely won over Qiangqiang. I don't know what kind of spell that kid has cast on Qiangqiang, but she not only brought him home, but even let him into her room!

He hasn't been inside for ages!

This kid...

Su Zhenqi grew angrier the more he thought about it, his teeth itching with hatred.

What's even more infuriating is that, knowing full well he was hiding in her daughter's room, she pretended to know nothing at all.

"A new friend..."

After thinking for a moment, Su Xiaoqiang concluded that the person who could truly be considered a new friend was Liu Miaomiao.

As for that kid Lu Mingfei... he's an enemy, not a friend!

"I met a classmate with whom I had a pretty good relationship."

Why is the old man being so long-winded today?

Su Xiaoqiang thought with some annoyance.

Also, what is Lu Mingfei doing in his room right now?

Although there wasn't anything inappropriate to see in his own room, that guy was still a boy, after all.

Putting aside the psychological discomfort, Su Xiaoqiang didn't even dare to imagine what a hot-blooded young man might do, alone in the room of a beautiful young woman!

"Oh, you met a classmate you got along with quite well?"

Su Zhenqi was taken aback. He knew his daughter's personality well. He knew that although she was a good person, she was too proud, which made it difficult for her to get along with her classmates.

So throughout her three years of junior high school, my daughter didn't really have anyone she could confide in.

But after only half a month at Shilan Middle School, my daughter said she had met a classmate with whom she was quite close. For my daughter to admit they were close, they must be very good friends.

It might just be that kid hiding in his daughter's room right now!

Su Zhenqi clenched his hands tightly on his knees.

"What kind of person is that classmate?" Su Zhenqi asked with a smile.

"Forehead……"

Su Xiaoqiang didn't know why her father was suddenly so interested in her school life today, but no matter how annoyed she was with the old man, she could only answer reluctantly:

"Let me think about it." Su Xiaoqiang summarized Liu Miaomiao's characteristics: "She is very beautiful, has good grades, and is very good at playing the piano."

Su Zhenqi was taken aback. What does "very beautiful" mean? Isn't it usually described as "very handsome" to describe a man who is good-looking? And what does "very good at romance" mean?

Wait a minute, the last time he went to the company's HR department, he overheard the girls there chatting. They were saying that in South Korea, it's fashionable to compliment boys on their good looks.

Some boy bands over there dress the guys up in a flamboyant and eccentric way, with exaggerated hair and ghost-like makeup, and then claim they have god-like looks.

So, does the guy Qiangqiang like also have messy hair and wear scary makeup like those effeminate male idols in Korea? Or is he actually a Korean exchange student?
