The Thirteenth Chapter: A Daring Appointment

  Facing the bold invitation of these two ignorant girls, Lu Xiangsheng smiled slightly, "This is not necessary! We have some other things to do today and may not be able to go, sorry!"

  Bai Shi's face suddenly changed, "Hehe ~ Can't you spare some time? I've called many people in your class, hoping you can honor me!"

  Zhiquan was chatting with Rongrong on one side and was having a great time, but as soon as Xuan Sheng said he wasn't going, he immediately came over, "Bai Shi? Right?"

  "Ah~ yes, I'm Bai Shi!"

  "Did you also invite people in our class? Who did you invite?"

  Bai Shi thought for a moment, "There's Qi Xiu, An Ning, and also Shen Kai's sister, Shen Xiao Xuan..."

  "Understood! Alright, alright, I and Xuan Sheng will definitely go, definitely!" Zhi Quan kept making eye contact with Xuan Sheng.

  "Shen Kai's sister? Shen Xiaoxuan? Does that mean there is another Shen Kai?" Lu Xiansheng asked Bai Shi.

  "Yes, we have a good relationship with Shen Kai! How can he not be here?" Bai Shi continued.

  "Oh, okay! Don't worry, I and Zhi Quan will definitely arrive on time! May I ask where is the place?"

  "You may not be very clear when you just arrived, um, how to say it! It's on the 6th floor of Fengyuan Hotel, not far from school, about a 20-minute drive. If you don't know, you can take a taxi, and the driver will know!"

  After hearing what Bai Shi said, Lu Xian Sheng and Chen Zhi Quan felt a wave of gloominess... "What did you say? Feng Yun Grand Hotel?" Chen Zhi Quan asked very cautiously.

  Bai Shi nodded, "Right! It's the Feng Yun Grand Hotel! You know that?"

  "I don't know... I don't know..." Zhi Quan said gloomily, looking at Lu Xian Sheng, whose face had already turned blue! Zhi Quan continued to ask Bai Shi very carefully, "Then can we not go?"

  "We were just talking and everything was fine, why didn't you go again?" Bai Shi felt a wave of depression.

  Zhi Quan looked at Lu Xian Sheng, unsure of how to explain things to Bai Shi.

  "It's okay, let's go! Hehe, is it on the 6th floor?" Xuan Sheng smiled.

  Bai Shi nodded, "Yes!"

  "What time?"

  "Four o'clock in the afternoon!"

  Lu Xuan Sheng smiled and said, "Understood! We'll definitely go!"

  After Bai Shi left, Xuan Sheng and Zhi Quan went to the window at the head of the corridor, opened it, and there was not a single cool breeze outside.

  Chen Zhiquan leaned against the window and asked Xuan Sheng, "Are you crazy? Has your brain gone bad? How can we possibly go to Fengyun? Isn't that jumping into a trap? I really don't know what you're thinking about all day!"

  Xuan Sheng gazed out the window, let out a sigh. "I didn't think of anything! Actually, sometimes the more you fear something, the faster it comes. Isn't that what Lao'er always says: 'Is it good fortune or bad luck? Can calamity be avoided?' What's destined to come will come eventually, and they wouldn't possibly know me or you! Why are we being so paranoid?"

  Zhi Quan shook his head and stared at Xuan Sheng, saying, "No! You didn't think that way at all! You just knew Shen Kai was going too! Are you trying to meet up with Shen Kai? Because Li Luo likes Shen Kai! You can't stand it yourself, who knows what you're thinking of doing by running over there!"

  Xuan Sheng looked at Zhi Quan with a gloomy expression, "Say whatever you want!"

  It's the first day of school and textbooks haven't even been distributed yet! It seems Bai Shi's information is indeed very accurate, no classes in the afternoon, who let her dad be the principal?! Otherwise, how would they schedule birthdays at 4 o'clock?!

  Xuan Sheng looked at Luo Er walking together with Xiao Xuan in front of him and called out to her. Luo Er rolled her eyes impatiently, "What do you want?"

  "I and Zhi Quan are going to give a birthday gift to Bai Shi of Class 8, maybe I won't be able to come back now, you see~ are you going with us? or go to your friend's house for a while first? after her birthday is over, I and Zhi Quan will come pick you up!"

  Luo'er shook his head, "No need, I'll go back with Lei Chao..."

  Zhi Quan burst out laughing on one side, "Alas, Li Luo'er, early this morning Li Chao already told you that he was going to bring his girlfriend along. How could you have forgotten? I've discovered that you quite like disturbing other people's two-person worlds?"

  Luo Er was so angry that she wished to pull out Chen Zhi Quan's tongue, "Oh ~ I forgot, but it doesn't matter, you guys do what you need to do, I'll go back with Xiao Xuan!"

  Xiao Xuan looked at Luo'er with embarrassment, "I also want to go to Bai Shi's place!"

  The boy sulkily shrugged his shoulders, "Otherwise, can I borrow your bike to ride for a while? Then you and the other two can go back together, and then ride your bike back to my house?"

  Xiao Xuan stuck out her tongue, "I didn't ride a bike here! Yesterday my uncle and aunt came, and this morning I came by sitting in my uncle's car! Luo Er, what should we do? How are you going to get back?"

  Luò ér ( Luo Er ) smiled wryly and shook his head, "Forget it, I'll go with you guys to Fēng Yún!"

  "That's right, haha ~ saves us from being embarrassed!" Chen Zhiquan looked at Xuan Sheng as if he had let out a sigh of relief!

  "Please, I didn't go to Fengyun with you guys to celebrate Bai Shi's birthday! And I'm not good enough for those young ladies either! I went to the restaurant opposite Fengyun to find my mom!" Luo Er said "mom" with a very heavy tone.

  Xiao Xuan looked at Luo Er, "Was Aunt Yun's place very busy today?"

  "Uh-huh, I heard there's a wedding and they've already booked over ten tables. I'll just go help my mom wash dishes, otherwise she'll be exhausted on her own! After you guys finish celebrating Bai Shi's birthday, just head out directly, and at night, my mom and I will head back together!"

  "Otherwise, I'll go help too? That way we can head back earlier. If it's too late, I don't feel at ease with you and Yuni riding one bike together!" Xiaoxian said considerately to Luoduo.

  "It's okay, hehe, I'm used to it! You guys go have fun!"

  "Alright~ It's not even two o'clock yet, let's not just stand around in school and talk about it. I just went to look for Lei Chao, but couldn't find him, his car is gone too... looks like he's off with that Yang girl again...... Let's not just stand here talking nonsense, shall we go out for a walk? I really don't want to stay in school anymore! It feels like I was born just to contribute to this school!" Zhi Quan yelled impatiently from the side.

  "Hmm, yeah! And I still need to buy something for Bai Shi... Ugh, lately the funds have been tight, it's a headache!" Xiao Xuan said while pulling Luo'er along as they walked out.

  Chen Zhiquan always felt that Xiaoxuan looked familiar, and it wasn't until he heard what Xiaoxuan said to Luoer that he remembered, the girl who was with Luoer was actually the one who didn't give him any face this morning and refused to sit at the same table as him!

  Moreover, in Luo Er's room, he had also seen someone else's photo! Zhi Quan gloomily followed Luo Er and Xiao Xuan, blocking their way, "You're Shen Xiao Xuan, right?"

  Xiao Xuan looked at Chen Zhiquan with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong?"

  "Why don't you sit with me at the same table?" Zhiquan asked loudly to Xiaoxuan!

  His question made Xiaoxuan and Luo'er burst out laughing inexplicably. Xiaoxuan laughed so hard that she almost lost her breath, "You're asking this?"

  Zhi Quan nodded silently, "Ah!"

  "Don't want to sit with you! Do I need to ask? Are you stupid or silly or what?" The two girls looked at Chen Zhiquan's frantic appearance and burst out laughing, losing all their ladylike demeanor.

  Xuan Sheng shook his head, let out a long sigh, and pushed Zhi Quan's head to one side, "Hey Chen Zhi Quan, can't you stop embarrassing yourself? I've had enough!"

  Zhi Quan rubbed his own head, looking at Xuan Sheng's back, muttering softly: "Monster... is really different from humans! With such a heavy hand, Li Luo'er will follow you, and it's not strange that she won't die, but I'm the one who's suffering more!"

  Xuan Sheng felt that he had vaguely heard something, turned his head and shouted at Zhi Quan again: "Hey! Chen Zhi Quan, what did you say?"

  Zhiquan silently shook his head, "Monster! It's a monster..."

  After leaving school, the four of them walked towards the Fengyun Hotel, with Luo Er and Xiao Xuan naturally walking in front because they knew the way. The two of them also walked ahead to avoid Chen Zhiquan's annoying voice, chatting about whatever they wanted.

  All the way, Luo Er and Xiao Xuan's laughter continued, while Lu Xian Sheng behind them was very quiet, almost nothing was said all the way, just a pair of eyes never left Luo Er's back, and from time to time, he let out inexplicable sighs.

  Chen Zhiquan was also unusually quiet on this road. Although he walked side by side with Lu Xiansheng, he didn't say a word to him. He just kept glancing at Lu Xiansheng from time to time, shaking his head occasionally and letting out a few sighs of regret, as if repeating Lu Xiansheng's every move.

  Luo Er and Xiao Xuan stopped in front of a store that looked relatively good. Xiao Xuan turned around to the two dawdling young masters behind her and said: "Let's go into this store and take a look~ This store near the school should be considered high-end!" Lu Xian Sheng nodded, and Chen Zhi Quan followed the two girls into the store.

  As soon as Luo'er entered the store, her eyes were attracted to the colorful boutique and various plush toys on the counter. She pulled Xiao Xuan around, looking left and right, "Xiao Xuan, how come I've never known about this store? You've never mentioned it before! Oh my, there are so many great things here, my eyes can't take it all in!"

  Xiao Xuan smiled and said, "Yes! I just found out this morning too. My brother told me that when sending things to Bai Shi, you can't send anything too cheap, so he asked me to come pick something out. This thing is not bad, but the price is just too expensive. Oh no, it looks like I'm going bankrupt again this month!"

  "Hehe~ The child smiled and picked up a plush toy to play with."

  Chen Zhiquan happened to overhear Luo Er and Xiao Xuan's conversation, and suddenly flashed to Luo Er's side, asking in a very low voice, "Is this thing good?"

  The boy nodded, "Uh-huh, yeah!"

  Do you want it?

  Luo Er looked at Chen Zhiquan with a gloomy expression, 'What's wrong?'

  Only then did Chen Zhiquan mysteriously say to Luo Er, 'It's nothing, these don't count as anything. If you marry a monster... Don't mention just this little thing! Even if it's half of Hami City, as long as you want it, he can buy it for you with money... As long as you obediently act like Mrs. Lu, that is to get what you want when you want it...'
