402: Still Cute
402: Still Cute
They were all good brothers when they came out, but now, because of Fu Yueci's words, the remaining two are somewhat inclined to beat him up.
By the time they stopped in their tracks, heartbroken, Fu Yueci had already walked three meters away.
Realizing that no one was following, he stopped while holding Qingqing, then turned around and raised his chin at them from a distance.
"Come on, you won't be angry if I tell you the truth, right?"
He knew that these two people weren't that fragile.
However, his seemingly offering a way out was actually a way of pursuing them, which made the two men quite angry.
They exchanged a glance, deciding not to argue with someone who was obsessed with his sister, and then followed him.
After walking around for a while, it was almost noon, and the two of them were a little hungry, so they suggested finding a place to eat.
The group stood by Yannan Lake waiting for the driver to arrive.
Fu Yueci hesitated and did not agree immediately.
"I'm taking Qingqing home at noon."
"Going home again? Didn't you say you were going to celebrate Lu Ming's birthday?"
Fu Yueci let out a "hmph" and then patted the little girl in her arms.
"Then I have to send Qingqing back."
The person who spoke then began to persuade, "Why not bring him along? Just for the fun of it. Besides, Lu Ming is an acquaintance, and he's met your sister before."
Fu Yueci remained silent for a few seconds before finally agreeing.
He told Xiao Qingdai on his phone, and she didn't stop him, only saying that he should take Cong Buxiao with him wherever he went.
Just then, the driver arrived, and after they had booked a place, they each got into their own cars.
The Fu family members were at the very back, and they only left after Cong Buxiao came up.
Fu Yueci and Qingqing sat in the back. He was polite and called her "Uncle" along with Qingqing.
"Uncle Xiaoxiao, my sister and I are going to a friend's birthday party this afternoon. Aunt Xiao wants you to come with us."
"it is good."
The little girl's eyes crinkled with joy: "Time for cake!"
Aside from joining in the fun, what makes her happiest is eating cake.
Children always love sweet things, but for her health, the family will control her intake of sweets.
After having lunch at the hotel, Fu Yueci and the others went to the Lu family villa.
The birthday party was scheduled to start at 5 p.m. and end at 9 p.m., but people started arriving as early as 2 p.m.
They were all young people, both boys and girls, dressed smartly and attractively.
The housekeeper said that Fu Yueci and the others had arrived, and Lu Ming came out of the villa with a smile to greet them.
He was a bit chubby, and he was wearing a red down jacket when he went out, which looked very festive.
Upon meeting, he was first surprised, "Wow, Qingqing is here too," and then said with a slightly exaggerated smile, "It's such an honor."
His family had no connection with the Xiao family, and they never had the opportunity to visit each other during holidays.
So even if it's his dad's birthday, he might not get the same treatment.
Fu Yueci didn't say much, just smiled and said, "Qingqing, come along and join in the fun."
Then he looked away, stepped aside, and the driver behind him was carrying two gift boxes.
Happy birthday, this is a gift for you.
There are two, one for him and one for Qingqing, but Qingqing's one was also bought by him.
Lu Ming was somewhat flattered, and the two friends who came with Fu Yueci also presented their gifts.
The Lu family's servants took it and carried it to Lu Ming's bedroom.
He then led Fu Yueci and the others inside.
Five or six people have already arrived; they are all familiar faces, people you can talk to in the circle.
After a brief greeting, Lu Ming asked, since there was still some time before the banquet started.
"Brother Ci, do you play games? I've invited two professional players. If you want to play, let's go to the game room."
Lu Ming has loved playing video games since he was a child. A couple of years ago, he begged his dad to invest in his favorite esports team.
It was originally just a hobby, but unexpectedly, that team won the championship in the spring season last year, making a lot of money for the Lu family.
It's his birthday today, and he invited his two favorite contestants.
Fu Yueci glanced in the direction he was pointing and felt a little tempted.
But when he thought of Qingqing, he refused without hesitation.
He looked at his two friends beside him and said, "You guys go have fun, I'm taking care of the kids."
Since they were already quite familiar with each other, the two didn't stand on ceremony with him: "Okay, let's go then."
Lu Ming didn't go either, so they found another person to play five-player squad.
After the person left, the Lu family's huge living room suddenly became empty.
Qingqing found something fun to do; she was playing with the Lu family's cat, while Fu Yueci sat beside her watching.
Lu Ming clearly cared more about the brother and sister than about anyone else.
Fu Yueci didn't go to play games, so he didn't go either, and instead sat with her and chatted.
Seeing that Qingqing liked cats, he asked the servants to release the other cat that was in the cage as well.
As soon as the cat was released from its cage, it started running around wildly. He directed the servants to catch it, put a leash around its neck, and bring it to Qingqing's side.
It's strange, the cat always likes to run around when it's let out, so Lu Ming had someone put a leash on it.
But after it was brought to Qingqing's side, it obediently lay on the little girl's lap, looking lazy and enjoying itself.
Seeing this, he had the servant remove the leash, and the cat really stopped running away.
Lu Ming didn't know the reason behind it. He thought to himself, "This silly cat has finally been clever for once and made a contribution to the family."
