Chapter 470: 470

Xu Tengfei remembered this person; he had seen him from a distance when he attended a banquet in Capital City the year before last.

Back then, several corporate leaders of much higher status than his all behaved extremely respectfully toward him.

At that time, Xu Tengfei could only attend that banquet thanks to a friend’s favor and had no chance to speak with any of the important individuals present.

But because it was the grandest and most significant banquet he had ever attended, the impression it left on him was extremely deep.

He would not mistake the man’s face.

But how could this man appear in Huacheng, at the doorstep of his office?

"Xu Tengfei, our family’s elderly master invites you to visit," the middle-aged man said with a smile, his expression light and breezy.

"You... your family’s... old master?"

The middle-aged man didn’t explain further to Xu Tengfei but had his accompanying people "invite" Xu Tengfei away.

In the Lu Family mansion, after finishing dinner, Susu happily carried Tiger over to find Lu Zhanyu.

Today, big brother had promised to read her a picture book; she had been looking forward to it all afternoon, so she came over as soon as dinner was done.

Upon entering, she saw the old Master Lu, seated on the living room sofa discussing matters with his subordinates.

When old Master Lu saw Susu walk in, he actively paused his conversation with his subordinates and greeted Susu with a smile, "Little Susu, are you here to see your big brother?"

"Hmph."

╭(╯^╰)╮

Susu turned her head away, giving old Master Lu a haughty little expression.

Laughing, old Master Lu coaxed, "Your big brother is upstairs in the study waiting for you."

Susu took a few steps toward the stairs, preparing to head straight up, but then thought it might be a bit impolite to do so.

So, she added, "I know that."

Then, without looking back, she ran up the stairs.

Watching Susu’s lively figure disappear, old Master Lu said to the person beside him with a smile, "Look, Little Susu is willing to talk to me; there seems to be hope for her to completely forgive me."

"Yes... yes..." the subordinate gave a strained smile.

This was their first time seeing old Master Lu act so humble...

Just who was this little girl?

In the upstairs study, Lu Zhanyu heard the footsteps and knew it was Susu.

"Big brother!" Susu took small, quick steps into the room and expertly placed TIger onto Lu Zhanyu’s lap.

"Meow—" Tiger voiced contentedly, then comfortably settled onto Lu Zhanyu’s thigh.

He even rubbed his head against Lu Zhanyu’s leg.

It was clear Tiger was very fond of Lu Zhanyu.

Moreover, unlike his initial wariness toward others, he had liked Lu Zhanyu from the beginning.

"You sit here." Lu Zhanyu had already reserved a spot for Susu.

Next to him, a chair of nearly his own height was placed, padded with a soft cushion.

Susu deftly climbed into the chair.

Then Lu Zhanyu took out the picture book he had prepared earlier and began to read its contents to Susu.

The story for today was about a kitten that ran away from home.

Susu listened with rapt attention, and Tiger pricked up his ears as if he himself were the kitten in the story.

"The kitten was kicked by the farmer, rolling down the hillside..."

As Lu Zhanyu narrated this part, Susu suddenly clenched her little fists, and her face turned stern, filled with righteous indignation.

"What’s wrong, Susu?" asked Lu Zhanyu when he saw her reaction.

"Bad person! Mean kick!" Susu was very angry. "A bad person kicked me like that too!"

"Someone kicked Susu like that?" Lu Zhanyu asked.
