“I’m not going.” Liu Feng rejected with a slightly impatient attitude.
“Lil Feng, it was your father and me who made this engagement too hastily, but the Chu family…” Qin XI frowned and sighed, seemingly helpless.
“But they took it seriously. Now I think it’s better to explain this matter in an official setting.”
Liu Feng could not help but squint her eyes when she thought about Qin Xi’s words and manner. Qin Xi was acting strangely. Liu Feng always felt that there was a bigger situation involved.
Nonetheless, Liu Feng’s face was still calm.
“Mom, I’m actually more curious about something.” Liu Feng’s almond-shaped eyes were slightly lowered, and there seemed to be fog in her clear black and white eyes.
“What?” Qin Xi’s thoughts could not keep up with Liu Feng’s. Her face still had a look of being on the other side’s good side, but some of her subtle expressions had already started to become nervous, and she was on guard against Liu Feng’s next question.
Liu Feng chuckled. “Back then, when I was engaged to the Chu family, why was it me and not Jiang Yue?”
Qin Xi obviously let out a sigh of relief. Her smile was graceful and gentle.
All these years of living in luxury made her look much younger than her actual age. With this slight smile and a hint of beauty, Jiang Yue looked very much like her.
“Yue’er is still young, and her personality is gentle. It’s not suitable for her to marry into the Chu family.”
Liu Feng looked into Qin Xi’s eyes carefully. Her eyes were as gentle and calm as ever as if what she said was true.
Liu Feng nodded indifferently. “Since we are going to break off the engagement on a formal occasion, I will attend this birthday banquet.”
She paused and looked at Gu Duo.
“As for whether he will attend or not, you can ask him for his opinion.”
After saying this, Liu Feng stood up and walked out. Gu Duo immediately followed behind Liu Feng.
“Are you sad?” Gu Duo’s eyes were filled with curiosity.
At that moment, Gu Duo felt that Liu Feng had a desire in her heart, but it was quickly concealed.
Liu Feng sneered. “Gu Duo, are you kidding?”
She looked at the road ahead. “I promised Qin Xi to attend the Chu family’s birthday banquet because I want to know what they are going to do next.”
“About this so-called engagement, I also hope that it can be officially canceled.”
Otherwise, Chu Yu would appear at any time and place like a fly that could not be killed. All kinds of entanglements were really annoying.
Liu Feng was preparing to go to the laboratory, while Gu Duo had his own matters to deal with.
“Remember to think of me.” Gu Duo blew lightly into Liu Feng’s ear, and Liu Feng’s ears instantly turned red.
Liu Feng glared at Gu Duo with some embarrassment. “Hurry up and get lost.”
Gu Duo reached out and held Liu Feng’s hand to place it on his heart. “I’ll always think of you. I’ll wash up and wait for you at night.”
“Hah.” Liu Feng chuckled. “Third Young Master Gu, you really want to carry out your status as a lover to the end.”
“Of course.” Gu Duo raised his eyebrows slightly with a hint of mischievousness. “Who knows, maybe the financial backer will see that my performance is good and one day when she is in a good mood. Then, I will be promoted to a full-time official lover.”
Gu Duo did not forget to throw a flirtatious glance at Liu Feng. He turned around, jumped into his sports car, and left amidst the honks.
Liu Feng shook her head helplessly. When Gu Duo was steady and reserved, he was dull, but when he was acting like a scoundrel, he had the air of a bandit. This character of his was really like Old Master Gu.
Liu Feng drove to the laboratory and first went to see her big brother, Jiang Luan’s office. What she saw was Jiang Luan’s face full of worry.
“Big brother, did something happen in the laboratory?”
From the moment Liu Feng returned to the Jiang family, only Jiang Luan treated her sincerely. Jiang Luan had a gentle personality, but he was also a stubborn person. Otherwise, he would not have insisted on staying in the laboratory.
When Jiang Luan saw Liu Feng, his eyes instantly became gentle. “Lil Feng, you’re here.”
He put the document in his hand aside. “The laboratory is short of funds. Even though Third Young Master Gu invested five million previously, he only filled in a small hole. If we can’t keep up in the future, I’m afraid….”
