Surprisingly, Xiaoqiao was reading a book on business management.

"Why …" Just as the two words came out from Lu Yubei's mouth, Xiaoqiao's body shook and the book fell to the ground.

"Phew …" After seeing who it was, Xiaoqiao patted her chest and said: "Big Brother Lu, it's you, you scared me to death. Why are you walking quietly?"

"You were too serious, you didn't notice me push open the door and enter." Lu Yubei said.

Xiaoqiao stuck out her cute tongue, and mischievously said: "Yeah, I really didn't notice."

"How come I'm reading a business management book? I remember... Isn't this your specialized class? " Lu Yubei asked.

"Hmm, I'm interested!" Xiaoqiao said, and then looked at Lu Yubei: "But this book was borrowed by me from the library, and it doesn't seem to be very suitable. You know so much about Big Brother Lu, and you have also learned the system's curriculum, so you should recommend me a few of the superficial ones."

"I want to learn one book at a time, step by step until I'm done."

"Okay, I will pick out a few books for Han Leng to buy and send to your school tomorrow." Lu Yubei said.

"Can't we do it tonight?" Xiaoqiao asked.

"Mm, not today. We have more important things to do today."

"What is it?" Xiaoqiao subconsciously asked.

"It's Dad's birthday the day after tomorrow. Let's go buy a suitable set of clothes tonight." Lu Yubei explained, and then he nodded.

The two left for the shopping mall. Because their goal was very clear, they went to the shops that sold clothes.

Lu Yubei had many suits that were tailored to his size, all of them were perfectly tailored to fit his size, with top quality fabric, so … This time, he was mainly going to buy a set of clothes for Xiaoqiao.

Yes, Lu Yubei was thinking about maturing a bit.

Originally, Xiaoqiao was relatively young, so she should not choose a too tender color for this selection.

"This set is not bad. Let me try it out." Lu Yubei took out a blue cheongsam from the row of clothes with his slender fingers.

Xiaoqiao looked, it was her favorite color, and it was … She also liked the style and design.

"Alright, I'll go try it out. Big Brother Lu, wait for me." Xiaoqiao smiled, then took the clothes into the changing room.

The clothes were made of soft fabric, and every design was perfect. At this time of the year, it was a perfect match to wear this dress on the inside and a long jacket on the outside.

When Xiaoqiao changed into a new set of clothes and left the room, she was still a little apprehensive in her heart.

Indeed, the style of this outfit was rather mature, and she … I've never tried this style before.

Thus, he was naturally a little nervous.

"Big Brother Lu, I'm done. Take a look!" Xiaoqiao opened her mouth, and her clear voice, like a mountain stream, reached Lu Yubei's ears.

Lu Yubei turned around. When he saw Xiaoqiao, his eyes were filled with unstoppable amazement and surprise.

His Xiaoqiao looked good in anything she wore.

At this moment, Lu Yubei thought like this.

So …" She was not only a pure white gardenia with a faint fragrance that seeped into people's hearts; she could also hold things like peonies, a dignified beauty, and a lady's beauty. Little Qiao was not inferior to anyone.

"Can I?" Xiaoqiao asked softly.

Lu Yubei walked closer to her and the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the mirror in the shop, looking like a beautiful couple.

"Very pretty." Lu Yubei nodded earnestly: "I'll do this."

Xiaoqiao also nodded.

After settling the bill, Lu Yubei's phone rang. It was a document from the company that required his signature, so Han Leng had already rushed over to the market.

Hearing that, Xiaoqiao immediately said: "Big Brother Lu, then go and sign your name. Once the clothes have been tidied up, I will go down and find you."

"Wait for me here. I'll come over after I sign my name." Lu Yubei earnestly reminded him, "This is a card, go around the shop again and see if there are any that you like, you can buy anything here."

"Alright."

As soon as Lu Yubei left, Fang Ting, who had been in another place all this time, walked in.

She had a strong aura and was an old customer. As soon as she entered the store, she received a warm welcome.

Xiaoqiao strolled around the shop. Just as her hand touched a piece of clothing, a voice interrupted: "I am truly sorry. I have taken a fancy to this piece of clothing as well. Can you let me try? "

"It doesn't matter. You can give it a try!" Xiaoqiao said as she raised her head.

The woman in front of him had short hair, making her look very capable. She stood on high heels that were more than ten centimeters tall and had a face that looked like it belonged to someone else. He wore a natural and well-mannered smile on his face, and his overall attire also gave off a feeling of being extremely fashionable.

Actually, Xiaoqiao only took a casual glance at the clothes in her hands, and didn't really like them.

Since she liked it, she would give up.

"Thank you!" Fang Ting smiled.

Following that, she took the clothes and went into the fitting room. When Fang Ting came out after testing the clothes, Xiaoqiao carried the clothes that he and Lu Yubei had chosen and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Fang Ting called out to her from behind.

"You are …" The person that Yubei is talking about, right? " Fang Ting's voice sounded out from behind Xiaoqiao.

Upon hearing the two words "Yubei", Xiaoqiao immediately stopped and turned to look at Fang Ting.

Now that he looked at Fang Ting again, a vague impression appeared in Xiaoqiao's mind. She remembered … That night, when he went to find Big Brother Lu, the woman who stood beside him on the stairs had short hair.

From the looks of it, it was very likely her.

"Hello, my name is Yan Xiaoqiao." Xiaoqiao did not retreat. Instead, she went forward and earnestly introduced herself.

"I'm Fang Ting."

After she introduced herself, Fang Ting looked at Xiaoqiao with some amusement. "I feel that you're very young, about seven or eight years away from Yubei!"

"It looks like Uncle and Lolita have a crush on each other."

Xiaoqiao could understand the hidden meaning behind Fang Ting's words, it was that she was not worthy of the Big Brother Lu.

So... He was deliberately saying this to tease her.

However, she was not someone who could be easily taken advantage of, Yan Xiaoqiao. She had her own confidence and principles.

Xiaoqiao pursed her lips, a smile appeared on her face, and she opened her mouth to speak in a leisurely manner: "That's right, Miss Fang is right, I once … I also thought that it would be better to be in a relationship if the difference in age was less than three years. "

"But Yubei changed my mind. He's older than me, so he dotes on me, loves me, and protects me; while here, he can release all the pressure. Sometimes, being young is also a form of capital."

Xiaoqiao's words were just right.

She knew … His last sentence must have stabbed at Fang Ting's sore spot.

But there was no other way?

Since she took the age difference between her and Big Brother Lu as an excuse, she would retaliate with age. That would be very fair, wouldn't it?

Moreover, youth was indeed a great asset.

"Look at you, you're so delicate and tender, so limpid and so limpid, I …" I thought you were a flower that grew in a greenhouse, but I didn't expect that... His ability to counterattack is pretty strong. " Fang Ting's words were half praise, half sarcasm.

"I'm just seeking truth from facts. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first." Xiaoqiao said.

"Wait a moment." Fang Ting shouted, "Yubei has been trying to win over the Fang family for support recently, but I … You have the authority to make decisions, don't you want to help him? "

"Of course." Xiaoqiao smirked, "So … All I can do is to protect myself and not let him distract me. "

This answer was truly beyond Fang Ting's expectations.

She clenched her fists, her face still maintaining its proper bearing, as she clenched her teeth, and watched Yan Xiaoqiao leave in front of her.

When Xiaoqiao left the stage, Lu Yubei had just finished signing his name and was preparing to come up.

"Didn't you say that I went up to look for you?" Lu Yubei took the exquisite bag from Xiaoqiao's hands.

"I didn't see any other clothes that I liked, so I came down by myself to avoid you coming back." Xiaoqiao said.

When Fang Ting got down from the car, she saw the two of them holding hands as they walked towards the back of the car park.

She had always thought that a man as cold and lonely as Lu Yubei would be someone who did not smile or talk at all. She could actually smile so gently at Yan Xiaoqiao as if they were two different people.

Two days later, it would be Lu Zhongtian's seventieth birthday.

Coincidentally, Xiaoqiao did not have any classes on Friday, so her work had become a little easier.

"Xiaoqiao, you just need to remember that I am in charge of everything." In front of the door, Lu Yubei held Xiaoqiao's hand and said solemnly.

Xiaoqiao nodded her head: "Big Brother Lu, for you, I have courage of any kind."

When Lu Yubei led Yan Xiaoqiao through the Lu family's gate, it had already attracted a lot of attention. It caused quite a sensation.

Lu Yubei had expected this situation a long time ago, so … He was very calm and his attitude was the same as before. There wasn't the slightest change.

When they walked into the living room, Lu Zhongtian and Jiang Rong were already waiting for them. Lu Zhongtian sat in the seat of honor, with an imposing manner, even though he was already seventy years old, he was still full of energy and was in good spirits.

They saw Lu Yubei holding onto a girl that they had never seen before, and he even … He even openly brought her home.

Jiang Rong was the first one to not be calm. Her eyes fell on the two hands that Lu Yubei and Xiaoqiao were holding.

Lu Zhongtian, on the other hand, was much calmer and calmer. His eyes only lightly swept over it for a moment, before retracting it. He looked at the chair not far from him, and spoke with a solemn voice: "Sit!"

It was a simple word, without any sound of joy or anger, and without any other emotion.

Lu Yubei led Xiaoqiao to sit down.

"Yubei, you still haven't introduced your mother to the girl beside you." Finally... Jiang Rong could not help but open her mouth.

Just as Lu Yubei was about to speak, someone came in to inform him that Zou Xiujuan had come.

Zou Ya Juan was Lu Hao's wife, Lu Yubei's sister-in-law, and also … Lu Zihe's mother.

Hearing that, Jiang Rong immediately stood up: "I've already warned Xiu Jun many times, saying that your 70th birthday is only a simple one. Her health is not good, and she doesn't need to rush over, I didn't expect … She came here on purpose. "

With just a few words, it wasn't hard to tell that Jiang Rong was quite satisfied with her eldest son's wife and was quite concerned about her.

"Since he's already here, we should find two people to serve him well." Lu Zhongtian said.

However …

No one would have thought that Zou Ya Juan's first sentence after entering the room was actually to look at Xiaoqiao and say, "You … Isn't it supposed to be with Zihe? "
