Genius Girl is the Big Shot's Beloved Treasure-Chapter 20: It’s Right to Treat Her Well

"How she is has nothing to do with me." Huo Jincheng didn’t have a good impression of Shen Xinzhu.

"Alright then!" Helian Yi shot another unfriendly glance at Lu Xingzhi.

Lu Xingzhi: "..."

She seemed quite innocent in all this.

"I’m going back to my room first." Lu Xingzhi looked at Huo Jincheng for confirmation.

Huo Jincheng nodded, "Go ahead! I’ll call you when it’s time for dinner."

Lu Xingzhi stood up and as she left, picked up the plate of strawberries, "I’ll take these upstairs to eat."

"If you like them, have more bought. But don’t eat too much of those, let me have someone bring you a plate of cherries too." Huo Jincheng thought the house should have more fruit prepared.

"Okay."

"Third Brother, why are you so nice to her?" Helian Yi couldn’t watch any longer. Was this really his Third Brother?

Though he was always courteous to people, with Lu Xingzhi, he was downright doting.

"She’s my fiancée; isn’t it right to be good to her?" Huo Jincheng countered.

"So as long as someone is your fiancée, you’ll be nice to them?" Helian Yi thought if that were the case, he should have asked Aunt to arrange a marriage for him earlier.

"In what capacity are you asking these questions?" Huo Jincheng smirked, but it wasn’t a warm one.

"I..." Helian Yi didn’t say anything further. He pondered that maybe Lu Xingzhi just happened to be right up Huo Jincheng’s alley.

"I’m going upstairs, suit yourself." Huo Jincheng stood up, conveniently taking the cherries washed by a servant, and headed upstairs.

Just before reaching Lu Xingzhi’s room, he heard a lively song coming from inside.

"I have a small donkey, I never ride it. One day, on a whim, I rode it to the market. In my hand, I held a little whip, feeling quite pleased..."

Through the ajar door, he could see a little person dancing and moving around.

Like a spirited girl, full of energy.

Huo Jincheng smirked; indeed, still a child.

But, that’s even better.

Noticing someone outside the door, Lu Xingzhi stopped and walked out, only to see Huo Jincheng.

"Uncle?" Lu Xingzhi’s face turned red; had Huo Jincheng seen all her actions just now?

"Brought you some cherries."

"Thank you."

"Rest well." Huo Jincheng said nothing more and returned to his own room.

Lu Xingzhi was very happy today; she bought many beautiful clothes and shoes, and even bags.

Though it was a little heart-wrenching to spend the money, it truly made her happy.

She hadn’t, no, she had never bought so many things before.

Sitting in her room, watching TV and eating fruit, although it felt a bit unreal, it was truly wonderful.

It’s just that suddenly being idle, not having to think about earning money for school or making her own living expenses, was still a bit unfamiliar.

After dinner, Huo Jincheng told Lu Xingzhi, "My parents are back, along with my two elder brothers and a younger brother. Tomorrow, we’ll go to the family home for a meal together!"

"Your mom and dad?"

Huo Jincheng reassured her, "Don’t worry, it’s just a meeting. After all, it’s time they meet you. In the future, you’ll see more of our family relatives."

"It’s not really worry." It’s just not something she’s used to.

If his parents didn’t like her, at worst, they would just call off the engagement.

"That’s good then."ƒrēenovelkiss.com
