The unattainable beauty was driven to depravity and madness by a wicked seed.

"It's a beautiful baby." Lu Sui's hair was a little messy. He ordered Shen Qinghuai to open his mouth. He wanted to kiss Shen Qinghuai.

Shen Qinghuai said he would punish Lu Sui later, and Lu Sui frowned and glared at him, saying, "I'm younger than you, so you should let me have my way."

"Does your husband have to forgive you even when you're wrong? He didn't teach you that."

"Yes! We have to give way."

Why?

"I am your wife."

"..."

"I didn't do anything wrong. I'm trying to make you happy." Lu Sui is no longer as shy as before. He and Shen Qinghuai don't look away when they meet eyes.

"Say goodbye." Lu Suike held a grudge.

"…Bye-Bye."

"Good girl, sweet baby."

"..."

Two or three days later, Lu Tonghai sent a message to Lu Sui, asking him to come home for dinner.

For Lu Sui, the Lu family's old house was not a home at all, and he had no attachment to it. He would never go back to Lu Tonghai for comfort if he suffered grievances outside. The people there were hypocritical and selfish. Just a text message was enough to make Lu Sui unhappy. He nestled in Shen Qinghuai's arms, his soft fingertips pressing against his palm, "I don't want to go back."

"Then don't go back, find an excuse to cancel."

"He must know about our relationship." Lu Sui looked at Shen Qinghuai, tilted her head back and kissed him. Seeing him purse his lips, she bit them. "Don't be afraid, I'm your wife, I won't leave you."

At 6 p.m., Lu Tonghai sent another message telling him to bring Shen Qinghuai with him.

Perhaps sensing there was something else going on in those words, he quickly explained that it was just a meal together, and that he and Lu Sui hadn't seen each other in a long time.

Seven o'clock, the Lu family's old residence.

Lu Yunshen and Lu Xingchen were both there. Lu Xingchen, who was usually carefree, started to dress smartly. He was originally scrolling through videos on his phone, but as soon as Shen Qinghuai and Lu Sui arrived, he immediately became uncomfortable.

It was not uncommon for men to date each other in his old circle, but most of them would only date for three or four days before changing partners, or even exchanging partners. So his first impression of these people was that they were messy. When Lu Xingchen first learned that Lu Sui and Shen Qinghuai were dating, he was full of "Holy crap" and thought to himself, "Lu Tonghai must be strangling him to death."

Although Shen Qinghuai is good in every way, and the thing he researched recently has attracted many people to offer him opportunities, he is still a man after all. Lu Sui actually brought him directly to the old house. Isn't this a slap in the face to Lu Tonghai?

That's really something.

Lu Xingchen wouldn't dare to do such a thing.

No, he doesn't like men.

"grandfather."

"Mr. Lu."

"Sit down." Lu Tonghai's aged hand gripped the tip of his cane. Although he was not stern, his aura was still powerful.

Lu Sui remained vigilant throughout, while Shen Qinghuai was quite relaxed, answering questions with ease.

Just as he said, Lu Tonghai brought the two back simply to have a meal together. He was getting old and didn't know how much longer he could live, so he always felt lonely.

Lu Xingchen: Ha, being old doesn't stop me from wielding my cane with impressive force.

Lu Yun Shen caught a glimpse of Lu Xing Chen's crooked mouth out of the corner of his eye, his eyelids twitched, he reached out and pinched his thigh, and just as he opened his mouth to call out, he stuffed a full spoonful of rice into it, "Eat more."

They just make some brainless faces.

Silly son.

Lu Tonghai chatted with them like any other elder. He asked Lu Sui why she had cut her hair, and Lu Sui replied that it was too hot to wash it.

Lu Tonghai nodded, "It is indeed difficult to wash."

The question-and-answer session resembled a note that Lu Yunshen would write to Lu Xingchen in advance for holidays, instructing him to answer questions from other relatives.

If you're not genuinely concerned, why go through this process?

Isn't living tiring?

Like a fake person.

Seeing Lu Xingchen pout again, Lu Yunshen stuffed a large chunk of the most difficult-to-chew food into his mouth.

Lu Xingchen: ? ? ?

Finally, Lu Tonghai invited Shen Qinghuai to work at the branch office. The business has now expanded into the medical field, and he is very optimistic about the "myocardial cell regeneration" project, planning to increase investment in it in the future…

Lu Tonghai's influence in the entire capital was unmatched. Being invited by him to work in his company would be very helpful for Shen Qinghuai's future career, so Lu accepted on his behalf.

Before leaving, Lu Tonghai said, "Find a time to get engaged. Sui Sui can't keep following you like this without any clear agreement."

Regarding the engagement, Lu Tonghai had someone calculate their birth dates and times, and the date was set for the day after tomorrow. Although it was a bit rushed, it was the best day.

The day before the engagement, Shen Qinghuai went home and rushed over here at five o'clock the next morning, bringing Liu Qiushui and Xu Suya with him. There weren't many people at his place, except for Liu Qiushui and Zhao Wenxiu. Moreover, Liu Qiushui was too nervous, and Xu Suya was able to calm her down. Actually, Xu Suya was also nervous. She had only been to Beijing once before, on a Sunday to see Wen Chengyu, and then Wen Chengyu took her out for a day and a half.

As soon as she got into the car, Xu Suya asked Liu Qiushui on her phone how old Shen Qinghuai's girlfriend was and what she should be careful about when she went there.

Liu Qiushui replied, "She's not my girlfriend."

"What? She's not your girlfriend yet? Then what are we going to do there?" You even prepared so many red envelopes.

"He's my boyfriend."

"Oh yeah—??"

Shen Qinghuai said calmly, "Aunt Xu, my boyfriend is Lu Sui, you've met him before."

After a moment of confusion, Xu Suya said, "That's fine then. I'm afraid I'll scare people if I make too much noise."

There was no disdain in his tone.

Lu Sui is a good kid, and Shen Qinghuai is a good kid too. The two good kids are engaged, and both sets of parents agree, so she has no objections. Besides, it's not her place to have any objections.

Why did she feel a little excited about meeting two boys getting engaged for the first time?

Xu Suya: Qiushui, can they get married?

Liu Qiushui of Liu Family Noodle Shop: It's possible to get married in other countries.

Xu Suya: That's great.

The venue was booked by Lu Tonghai, and there weren't many people. Shen Qinghuai brought hardware and betrothal gifts. Apart from the small portion needed for future planning, he deposited the rest into his card and gave it to Lu Sui. He then took Liu Qiushui and Xu Suya to buy clothes and hired a makeup artist to do their makeup. Xu Suya was quite embarrassed, saying that she had come all this way and even got a free dress, and that she wanted to give the money to Shen Qinghuai.

Shen Qinghuai said, "No need."

Liu Qiushui linked arms with Xu Suya, saying that Xu Suya's presence today had been a great help to her.

Today, Lu Sui was wearing a dark red suit with black ribbons that fell to his waist. His soft, silky face was almost holy in the light, and his slender neck was pale and powdered. Sitting there, he looked like a white peony. His long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and his eyes were cold, but when he saw Shen Qinghuai, he subconsciously smiled and called out to him softly, "Shen Qinghuai."

"Um, sorry I'm late."

"It's not too late, Grandpa hasn't arrived yet."

Shen Qinghuai wanted to ruffle Lu Sui's hair, but seeing how delicate each strand was, he lowered his finger and brushed against Lu Sui's cheek. "So handsome."

Xu Suya: This is truly an eye-opening experience for me, to be able to come to such a high-class place!

Her gaze fell on Lu Sui's face, and her eyes widened.

He silently repeated several truths to himself—

Shen Qinghuai's encounter with Lu Sui must have been due to good deeds in his past life!
