Huayu: From the Era of Ringtones to Becoming a Legend

After a few seconds of stunned silence, and glancing at Zheng Shuyi who was quietly staring at her, Lu Jiuge felt even more flustered.

Seeing the clothes scattered all over the floor, I instantly realized what I had done last night.

"Um, would you believe me if I said I don't remember anything from last night?"

Lu Jiuge forced herself to speak, already prepared to be questioned.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Shuyi was even calmer than him:

"I don't remember either, let's get up!"

"hiss!"

Zheng Shuyi replied and was about to get up and get dressed when a tearing pain shot through her lower body, so she had to sit back down on the bed.

Just then, Lu Jiuge's phone rang again.

He picked up the phone, glanced at it, and pressed the answer button.

Before Lu Jiuge could speak, Xu Xin's hurried voice came from the phone:

"Mr. Lu, are you in Shuyi's room?"

"Uh, yes."

"I just went to your room to look for you, but no one was there. Then I remembered that when I came back last night, you and Sister Shuyi went into the room together!"

"So you did this on purpose last night..."

Lu Jiuge was about to make an excuse when Xu Xin interrupted him:

"Mr. Lu, let's not question them yet. Mr. Zheng Dongrong and Old Master Zheng have arrived at the hotel and are taking the elevator to Shu Yi's room!"

"You guys hurry up and get ready, or you'll get caught red-handed and it'll be embarrassing."

"What? Uncle Zheng and the old man have already come up?"

Lu Jiuge's expression changed, and she abruptly sat up:

"Okay, I got it!"

After saying that, Lu Jiuge hung up the phone and frantically searched the room for clothes to wear.

Zheng Shuyi had overheard their conversation and was even more nervous than Lu Jiuge. Despite the pain, she frantically searched for clothes to put on.

Just as the two of them finished tidying up in a flurry, there was a knock on the door.

"Shuyi? Are you there?"

It was Zheng Dongrong's voice.

Lu Jiuge took a deep breath, knowing there was no way to avoid it, and braced herself to open the door.

Zheng Dongrong and Zheng Wutong stood at the door, looking at Lu Jiuge's disheveled appearance, and then glanced at Zheng Shuyi, whose face was flushed inside the room.

As people who had been through it all, they instantly understood what had happened between Lu Jiuge and Zheng Shuyi.

Lu Jiuge blushed and explained hesitantly:

"Uncle Zheng, Grandpa, I had something to discuss with Shuyi about work."

As soon as this lame excuse came out, Xu Xin, who was following behind, almost couldn't help but laugh.

Surprisingly, the two did not react much.

Zheng Wutong glanced at Lu Jiuge and said calmly:

"I'll be waiting for you in the restaurant on the second floor. After we have breakfast, we'll take a car back to Hong Kong and discuss the plan!"

After Zheng Wutong finished speaking, he turned and left. Zheng Dongrong patted Lu Jiuge, glanced at Zheng Shuyi who was standing silently to the side, and then left the room.

After the two left, only Lu Jiuge, Zheng Shuyi, and Xu Xin remained in the room.

Having witnessed Zheng Wutong and Zheng Dongrong's reactions, Xu Xin understood what was going on and looked at Lu Jiuge and Zheng Shuyi with a mocking expression.

"Shuyi, Mr. Lu, it seems I not only didn't do anything wrong last night, but actually did the right thing!"

"Unintentionally, I even became a matchmaker!"

Being teased to her face, Zheng Shuyi blushed even more and stomped her foot in a coquettish manner:

"Sister Xu Xin, don't talk nonsense!"

"Okay, okay, I won't talk nonsense."

Xu Xin smiled and waved her hand:

"I'll go to the restaurant first. You two hurry up and finish cleaning up and come down."

After saying that, Xu Xin turned and left the room, closing the door behind her.

The room fell silent again, leaving only Lu Jiuge and Zheng Shuyi.

The two looked at each other, both feeling a little embarrassed.

"that……"

Lu Jiuge spoke first, clearing her throat:

Silent Mantis's new work is here! Cola Novels is the first to update it online!

"What happened last night was my fault; I drank too much."

"I've had too much to drink."

Zheng Shuyi said softly, her fingers gripping the hem of her clothes tightly:

"It's not your fault."

The two remained silent for a moment, then continued to tidy their clothes. More than ten minutes later, they finished and walked out the door.

As she was leaving, Zheng Shuyi looked at Lu Jiuge's still wrinkled collar, reached out, and gently straightened it for him with a tender gesture.

Seeing her like a virtuous wife and loving mother stirred Lu Jiuge's heart, and he subconsciously took Zheng Shuyi's hand.

Zheng Shuyi was taken aback, then shyly pulled her hand away and walked out.

"Hurry up and let's go, Grandpa and Dad are waiting."

Lu Jiuge watched her retreating figure, a smile unconsciously creeping onto her lips, and quickly followed after her.

As soon as I entered the restaurant, I saw Zheng Dongrong and Zheng Wutong already sitting by the window waiting for me.

Their gazes fell on Lu Jiuge and Zheng Shuyi simultaneously, their eyes filled with satisfaction. Zheng Shuyi lowered her head in embarrassment at their looks.

"Please sit down."

Zheng Dongrong greeted him with a smile:

"Try the dim sum here, it's quite good."

The three sat down and chatted while eating.

Zheng Dongrong would glance at Lu Jiuge and Zheng Shuyi from time to time, his expression clearly that of a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, finding him more and more pleasing to the eye.

After finishing her morning tea, Lu Jiuge checked the time and turned to Xu Xin, saying:

"Xu Xin, I'll trouble you to take care of the follow-up procedures for the acquisition of Jinyu Film and Television, as well as the licensing application. After you've finished dealing with things here, you can go back to Hong Kong."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I will handle it well."

"Shuyi, come back to Hong Kong with me."

Zheng Shuyi nodded:

"it is good."

After briefly explaining Xu Xin's next steps, Lu Jiuge, along with Zheng Shuyi, Zheng Wutong, and Zheng Dongrong, got into the Zheng family's car and headed towards Hong Kong.

In the seven-seater van, Lu Jiuge and Zheng Wutong sat in a row, discussing the plan.

……

After discussing the matter along the way, the car passed through customs and entered Hong Kong city.

Upon arriving at the Zheng family's old residence in Repulse Bay, Zheng Wutong and Zheng Dongrong got out of the car. Instead of inviting Lu Jiuge to sit inside, they instructed her:

"Xiao Lu, you've been working hard these past few days, take a good rest. Tomorrow's planning meeting is all up to you."

"I understand, sir."

Lu Jiuge nodded.

After Zheng Wutong finished speaking, seeing that Zheng Shuyi did not get out of the car, he waved to the driver to drive away.

After leaving the Repulse Bay villa area, Zheng Shuyi looked at Lu Jiuge and asked softly:

"Where should we go now? Should we go home and rest for a bit?"

Lu Jiuge asked subconsciously:

"Which home are you going back to?"

Zheng Shuyi rolled her eyes at him and said irritably:

"Of course I'm going back to my villa in Deep Water Bay! You don't own a house in Hong Kong, and you usually live with Lao Liu and the others. How can you get proper rest with so many people around!"

Lu Jiuge stared at her and said a sweet nothing:

"I don't care how many people there are, what I really want is to be with you!"

"Hate!"

Recalling the scene at the hotel, Zheng Shuyi blushed again, lowered her head, and remained silent.

Lu Jiuge thought for a moment, then shook her head:

"Let's go to the company first; I still have some things to take care of."

Zheng Shuyi glanced at Lu Jiuge, did not refuse, and told the driver to drive to the New World Centre in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Upon arriving at the company, Lu Jiuge led Zheng Shuyi to her office and handed her a set of keys:

"Shuyi, all the bank cards of Qianxing Capital are locked inside, along with some important documents. Now, I'm handing these keys over to you for management."

Zheng Shuyi took the key, stared into Lu Jiuge's eyes, a hint of a smile flashing in them, and asked softly:

"What, is this considered a bride price?"
