Lu Mingfei, why are you slaying dragons if you're not involved!

Chapter 166 The Boy with Lions in His Eyes (1160)

What is "World Friendship Day"?
It's basically a "Lu Mingfei Mourning Day"!
Will this day next year be the anniversary of my death?

Just as Lu Mingfei realized this, Su's father's words, "Lu Mingfei, classmate," reached his ears.

He forced a smile.

"Uncle, please still call me Xiaolu as before."

No matter how you look at it, inviting a female classmate over for breakfast at 6 a.m. is a rather outrageous act... If he hadn't been caught, it would have been fine, but now that he has, there's nothing that can be done about it.

all will be good!
"Little Road."

Su's father naturally changed the way he addressed him, and his expressionless face suddenly turned into a kind smile.

"I heard Xiaoqiang booked a room at your place?"

"Forehead……"

Lu Mingfei glanced at Su Xiaoqiang discreetly, then honestly admitted, "Yes, yes, it's about not wasting housing resources..."

Upon hearing this, Su's father's eyes twitched slightly, and he was speechless for a moment.

He really wanted to say, "My villa is even bigger than yours, and it has so many empty rooms. Why don't you move in?" But then he thought, "No way! What if this guy actually does that?"
His background was so powerful that even his connections couldn't find out. His appearance was indeed flawless, and he seemed like a decent person, except for his somewhat unreliable way of speaking... Moreover, it was his own daughter who actively pursued him.

I still remember the day we first met, he casually said to his daughter, "Why don't you just stay at his house?" In the end, he found out that there was actually such a thing!
Could this be considered a self-fulfilling prophecy?
Thinking about this, Su's father felt very tired. He waved his hand to signal Su Xiaoqiang to get out of the car, but he himself showed no intention of moving.

"Go inside first, I have something to say to him," Su's father instructed.

"Okay... don't bully him, okay?" Su Xiaoqiang couldn't help but say.

Father Su: "..."

A daughter is like a bird that flies away when she grows up! She's not even married yet and her heart is already set on that side. Who gave me the right to bully her? With his background still shrouded in mystery, it's good enough if he doesn't abuse his power!

Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, "Su Xiaoqiang, are you trying to kill me? Your father is already a volcano on the verge of erupting, and you're going to throw a bomb at him!"

Fortunately, Mr. Su was a very shrewd man. Although his breathing rate quickened slightly, he managed to control it. He nodded gently and sighed softly.

"Go."

"Then I'll go!"

Su Xiaoqiang gave Lu Mingfei a look that said, "Good luck to you, I've done my best," and then skipped into the house.

As the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue, the Sword Gods, was about to unfold once again... Lu Mingfei had no interest in paying attention. He looked at Su's father, hesitant to speak.

"Doesn't it seem strange?" Su's father asked.

"is a bit."

Lu Mingfei nodded, "I thought you were going to fly into a rage and cut me down in one fell swoop..."

"I really want to, but I need to have the ability, and Xiaoqiang has to agree."

Su's father chuckled self-deprecatingly, then his expression changed and he became serious.

"I have something to ask you."

"what's up?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"You speak first."

"What I'm about to say is something you don't need to answer or deny, because it's just my intuition and guess... but my intuitions are usually very accurate."

Su's father lowered his voice, "This city is not safe."

Lu Mingfei narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Big shots have their ways, and small shots have theirs. I'm a businessman who started from scratch and now I have some connections... I've been making some covert arrangements lately and I've noticed some clues. If it had already been exposed, that would be fine, but since nothing has happened yet, it means this matter might be very serious."

Su's father was saying things that would be completely incomprehensible to others, but Lu Mingfei understood them perfectly. "I don't know if this will ultimately happen, but I have a pretty good idea that Xiaoqiang has been dragged into it because of you."

Lu Mingfei stared at him intently.

“Recently, someone has been secretly protecting and observing her, and she has also gained a secretary I’ve never heard of before… In reality, it’s hard to do anything perfectly.”

Su's father explained it simply and directly.

"It's a simple favor I need to ask you. I'm going abroad for a recuperation trip, and Xiaoqiang will be staying at your place during the winter break. It's the room she booked earlier."

"This is……"

Lu Mingfei paused for a moment, then said, "Of course."

“I know, but a father should say something... It’s my responsibility.”

Su's father nodded, looking into Lu Mingfei's eyes, "Can you fulfill your responsibilities?"

Before Lu Mingfei could answer, he laughed.

"okay, I get it."

As a ruthless entrepreneur who built his fortune from scratch in business, especially in industries like coal mining, Su's father was most adept at reading people and situations.

So he only needed to glance at Lu Mingfei's eyes to get the answer: confidence and determination, with a hint of arrogance that seemed to be looking down on everyone else!
That was the gaze of a young lion, who, though not yet at the peak, already exuded the aura of a king!

"By the way, I think you might have a question, which is... why don't I force Xiaoqiang to go abroad as well? Wouldn't that have taken her away from danger?"

Mr. Su was in a good mood. He smiled and asked himself a question, then answered it himself.

"You need to understand, I'm a businessman. Doing business always involves taking risks, and to some extent, the bigger the storm, the more valuable the fish. That's how I taught Xiaoqiang from a young age."

Since she chose to bet her money on you, it means she must be aware of the risks and is willing to take them... and then reap the corresponding rewards.

You should know what she wants to gain, right?

"I know, I know."

Lu Mingfei nodded repeatedly, his expression strangely unsettling.

"Tang Monk's flesh, you know."

"……Hahaha!"

Su's father was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

He patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder with a heavy pat, as if he were throwing a burden onto him.

"very good!"

He didn't say anything more after that. He said "goodbye" and then let Aunt Zhang drive away.

Lu Mingfei stared blankly as the taillights of the extended Rolls-Royce Phantom disappeared into the thin mist at the intersection.

This winter break... seems, might, perhaps will be a little bit special.

Both Zero's "parents" and Su Xiaoqiang's parents came, arriving and leaving quickly, and even what they said was almost the same.

Lu Mingfei was mentally prepared for this. He had always been clear about his ambitions, and now he could see his ability to realize them in the future.

But he never expected this day to come so soon! Luckily, the timings of both sets of parents happened to be different, otherwise, something as serious as a comet hitting the Earth might have happened!

However, it seems that only...

A "click" from behind interrupted Lu Mingfei's thoughts.

He turned around and saw Su Xiaoqiang peek out, look around, and then look at him.

"Dad's gone?" she asked.
