“She actually took my casual joke seriously?” he thought.

“Brother Lu Ming, when we meet again, shall we get married?”

When he heard this, he was stunned and asked blankly, “Why?”

The young Chu Jinyu blushed and said, “If we can meet again, doesn’t that mean that it is heaven’s will for us to be together? Shall we? Brother Lu Ming.”

Lu Ming was so shocked by her reminder that he did not regain his senses for a long time.

Back then, seeing that the little girl was about to cry, he had no choice but to say, “Alright, it’s settled then.”

In reality, he did not take these words to heart. The only reason he agreed was because he did not want to make her cry. He had always been an older sibling to her.

Fortunately, Chu Jinyu did not pursue the matter.

She continued, “Brother Lu Ming, have you been living happily these past few years?”

“… I’m very happy now.”

It would have been a lie to say that he was happy these past years. He was only happy now because he could avenge his mother and make Lu Yaohua and the rest get their just desserts.

Chu Jinyu tilted her head. “That’s good. If you need help, feel free to look for me.”

She stood up and said, “I’m going to the washroom. Wait for me for a moment.”

Lu Ming watched her leave and raised his eyebrows slightly. “Does she need to bring her bag to the toilet?” he wondered.

Not surprisingly, Chu Jinyu turned a few corners to get to the cashier counter and handed her bank card to the waiter. “Table 23. Can I have the bill, please.”

The Hilton Hotel was famous for being a top luxury hotel in Shanghai. Lu Ming had just graduated. How could he pay for a meal there? Even if he could, he would barely get by in the days to come.

So she might as well foot the bill secretly.

However, because of her good looks, she had attracted the attention of many people. When they saw her paying the bill, they muttered:

“I thought she is being kept by a rich second-generation heir. I didn’t expect her to be keeping a pretty toy boy. Tsk, the ways of the world! If I were a little richer, I’d also be keeping a few pretty boys.”

“That pretty boy is not easy to find either. He’s really handsome! I thought he’s a celebrity at first! This is what it means to rely on your looks to make a living. I saw the food they ordered. It must be at least 50 thousand yuan. They’re really big spenders!”

“This rich lady is quite pretty. It’s really good to be her gigolo! Her bag is the newest in the market. I’m afraid she not only has money but also influence.”



A few waiters at the side glanced at the woman in front of them. She was donning branded goods from head to toe, which meant that she was extraordinarily rich. When they thought of the pretty boy who was with her, they could not help but feel envious. Who wouldn’t want to be kept by a beautiful, rich, and powerful woman?

They did not want to work hard anymore.

If the rich lady could lower the gender barrier, they would definitely be the first to sign up.

“That man is really lucky to be kept by such a rich woman. I’m so envious!”

“It’s useless to be envious. He’s lucky and can work less for decades. It’s something people like us can’t attain in our entire lives.”

“Sigh, if only the heavens would give me such a handsome man!”



After swiping her card, the cashier took out the red wine that she had prepared beforehand and smiled. “This is for you.”

Usually, only honored guests received such treatment at high-end hotels. However, Chu Jinyu had only been here a few times, so she wondered why she was offered wine.

She took the red wine doubtfully and looked at it!

“It’s… a 1982 Lafite?!”

She only had a meal worth tens of thousands of yuan. Why did the hotel pay out of its own pocket by giving her such expensive wine?

“Are you sure you didn’t send it to the wrong person?”

The cashier nodded. “You’re Ms. Chu from table 23, right?”

“Right.”

“Then I’m giving it to you.”

Chu Jinyu was even more puzzled. She had nothing to do with the Hilton Hotel. Why would they give her red wine?

So she asked, “I don’t understand what you mean. Why is that?”

“This is an instruction from the boss. Just take it.”

The cashier said respectfully.

“Boss’s instruction?”

Chu Jinyu was at a loss. “What the heck?”

If she remembered correctly, the boss of the Hilton Hotel had always been mysterious. No one knew his identity or even his gender. Furthermore, he did not attend any social events, so how could she have had the chance to meet him?

She left with Lafite, her mind full of questions.

Looking at her departing figure, the cashier heaved a sigh of relief. She had finally given the wine. This was something that the manager had personally instructed her to do. If it was not done, she would probably be fired.

When Chu Jinyu returned, Lu Ming was texting and instructing his subordinates to acquire a place. He looked up instinctively and saw the bottle of Lafite. He immediately realized that she had gone to pay the bill.

Lu Ming smiled and pretended to be puzzled. “Why did you order another bottle of red wine?”

“I didn’t order this. The cashier gave it to me for no reason. It’s strange.”

Since she couldn’t figure it out, she decided not to think about it. She poured the 1982 Lafite into the goblets.

Lu Ming took a sip and said, “It tastes good indeed.”

“Indeed. Oh right, your phone seems to be ringing non-stop?”

Chu Jinyu noticed the phone on the table. The sender of the message was… Assistant Wen? Then someone else appeared—Senior Ji?

She was surprised. “You have an assistant?”

“From the company.”

This was not a lie because the company belonged to him.

Lu Ming picked up his phone and tapped on the message. It detailed the progress of his work. He tapped on Ji Yu’s message. There were only a few words:

‘Acquisition completed.’

The corners of his lips curled up slightly when he saw these words. The private house worth 1 billion yuan—Upper Forest Park, No. 1 Residence—was his now.

Chu Jinyu was initially a little worried that he was struggling. It seemed like she was overthinking.

Since he had an assistant, he should not be doing too badly. However… he had just graduated and the company was already giving him assistants. “Doesn’t that prove that Lu Ming is outstanding?” she thought.

Her smile widened. He was indeed her childhood friend.

“Are you busy with work?”

Lu Ming closed the phone screen and said, “It’s nothing. I just want to buy a house in Upper Forest Park.”

“Just?!”

Chu Jinyu was stunned for a few seconds and thought that he was joking. “Are you drunk?”

“Alright, actually, our company has a collaboration project that we want to discuss with the boss of Upper Forest Park.”

Lu Ming knew that he was just an ordinary person in her eyes. Perhaps even if he said that he had several companies under his name now, Chu Jinyu would only think that he was bragging.

She patted her chest and said, “You gave me a scare. After all, that’s Upper Forest Park..”
