They stepped into the elevator and Ji Qingqing hurriedly pressed the elevator button to close the door. The moment the elevator doors were about to close, a hand was slipped in between the two elevator doors, preventing it from closing.
The elevator that was about to close, opened again.
Yu Yang stood in front of the elevator. He was gasping for breath while he looked at the two people in the elevator. Yu Yang’s eyes narrowed at the man that Ji Qingqing was holding hands with.
He saw a vague figure at the door just now before Ji Qingqing dragged him away. The man looked very familiar, but he wasn’t able to remember his name immediately. However, when he was putting on his shoes, a light bulb suddenly went off in his head.
Although Yu Yang subconsciously believed that the possibility that the man that he saw was the man he was currently thinking about was zero, his body moved faster than his brain. He ran up to the elevator and blocked the elevator door from closing.
“Lu…” Yu Yang stepped one foot into the elevator.
Lu Lixing narrowed his eyes dangerously, “Get out.”
Yu Yang’s foot froze before he retreated from the elevator.
“Wait a moment!” A sharp and ear-piercing voice suddenly sounded. The elevator door that was about to close, was once again forced open by someone else.
Mother Ji was standing outside the elevator. She stepped in between the elevator doors to prevent it from closing. Mother Ji looked up and down at Lu Lixing.
Lu Lixing’s gaze was deep. He was also sizing up Mother Ji.
No one spoke.
It wasn’t until the elevator’s warning sounded that Mother Ji withdrew her gaze and asked Ji Qingqing, “Qingqing, who is he?”
Ji Qingqing hesitated before answering. While she was wondering whether she should address him as her friend, colleague, boyfriend, or husband, Lu Lixing answered for her.
Lu Lixing said, “Hello auntie, I am Qingqing’s boyfriend.”
“Boyfriend?” Mother Ji sneered at Lu Lixing, “Since you are her boyfriend, why don’t you come in and have lunch with us.”
Her tone was more mocking than polite.
“How disrespectful.”
Mother Ji’s gaze landed on Yu Yang, “Yu Yang, why are you leaving when you didn’t even finish eating? Qingqing’s father personally steamed some Chinese mitten crabs for you. How can you leave without eating one? Go in and eat a few.” As she said that, she pushed Yu Yang towards the entrance to their house. Yu Yang turned around and continued staring at Lu Lixing.
“Qingqing has been spoiled rotten by me and her father since she was young, so she is extremely willful.” Mother Ji continued whispering to Yu Yang. She didn’t notice the shocked expression on Yu Yang’s face. “Please don’t misunderstand. My family’s Qingqing likes to make friends with lowlifes. I have seen several of her friends, so I know Qingqing very well. I looked at the man in the elevator and he seemed like one of her lowlife friends. No matter what, he can’t compare to you.”
Yu Yang finally recovered from his shock. When he heard Mother Ji say those words, he had no expression on his face as he said, “You’re overpraising me.”
No one can compare to…
Yu Yang remembered that his family’s elders always compared him to Lu Lixing, but he was never able to compare up to him. Lu Lixing couldn’t help but laughed.
No one in the same generation can compare to Lu Lixing.
Inside the elevator, Ji Qingqing released the hand that was holding onto Lu Lixing/
“I advise you not to go in. If my parents realize that you’re rich, they will probably pluck all your feathers up.” Ji Qingqing looked up at the confused expression on Lu Lixing’s face and explained, “My parents were poor when they were young, so they’re scared to death of poverty. They love money now, so if they see that you’re rich, they’ll definitely latch onto you and not let go. It’s best if you avoid them.”
Lu Lixing smiled, “Since I’m already here, how can I not go in?”
He stepped out of the elevator.
“Then don’t take anything they say to heart later!” Ji Qingqing hurriedly followed behind him. She felt that it was necessary for her to explain everything clearly to Lu Lixing in advance, “They know that Yu Yang’s family is rich, so they’re trying to force me into a relationship with him. But that bastard, Yu Yang, dumped me in the past. When he chased after me before, he used all kinds of underhanded methods and tricks. When I finally gave in, he broke it off with me. Now, he wants to date me again, but I don’t believe he’s doing that with good intentions. He’s not someone who will repent for his mistakes.”
Lu Lixing furrowed his brows at his explanation and said, “You and Yu Yang…”
