My Youth Began With Him

"Lu Yan is a weird girl…" Su Yu was puzzled that the girl preferred roadside stalls over fancy restaurants.

"She's as weird as you," An murmured to himself.

"What did you say?" Su Yu gave him a dirty look.

"Ha! I said… Lu Yan is indeed weird."

While Su Yu and An talked about where he should bring Lu Yan to eat, Lu Yan sneezed several times.

"Boss, are you okay? Did you catch a cold?"

Her subordinates were startled and added a blanket over her covering.

"I'm fine.

"By the way, did Psycho Qiao contact you guys?"

"No. What's up?" They looked confused.

"Nothing. You guys get out." Lu Yan waved her hand and sent them out impatiently.

She tried to contact Qiao Fei on her watch, but he didn't answer her call.

"Damn it… You dare to refuse my call?"

Lu Yan cursed in a low voice and tried again, but he still refused to answer.

Finally, she sent a text message to him to rail at him, "Qiao Fei, you're a psycho, a damned eunuch… You even refused to take my calls. Very good. You just wait. When I see you, I'll skin you alive."

After a long while, Qiao Fei replied with only one sentence, "I don't want to talk to a scumbag who doesn't keep her promises."

"Fuck! Who doesn't keep her promises? Who's a scumbag? Damn it…" Lu Yan sulked.

Qiao Fei had an excellent intelligence network and knew immediately what Lu Yan had done and what people she had seen.

Knowing she had flirted with the local scoundrels, Qiao Feil decided to give her a small punishment which was giving her the cold shoulder and not talking to her.

- In the big manor in Moscow -

Qiao Fei was summoned to the main palace by his father. He hadn't talked with his father over tea for a long time.

"Fei, your spirits have been low after your return."

"I've always been like this."

"But I think something's on your mind."

"Father, you're imagining things."

"Is the maid you brought back loyal to you? Maybe she's a spy planted by your side by Lu Yan. Have you checked?"

"I know what I'm doing."

"Your eldest brother has not been home for years and seldom contacts me. Now only you and your second elder brother are home, but he's very ambitious and vicious. Some elders of the family don't like him and hope that I can make you my heir."

"Forget it. I don't want to take over the family business." Qiao Fei lowered his head and his short silver hair glinted in the dark night; his expression was unreadable.

"But you know once your second elder brother took over, he might kill you," Qiao Fei's father said heavily.

"Then we'll see who can outlive whom."

"Are you still thinking of that woman? Fei, Lu Yan is not a good mate for you. She's a wild horse and is used to living in showers of bullets. You can't manage her."

"You'd better turn in for the night, Father."

Glancing at his watch, Qiao Fei stood up with a cold expression, ending his conversation with his father.

Looking at Qiao Fei's departing back, his father sighed slightly.

He could never guess what his son was thinking.

When Qiao Fei returned, Amy was mopping the floor. Suddenly, she held her belly with cold sweat popping out on her forehead; she looked pained.

"Young Master Qiao, you're back."

"Yeah."

"You don't look well…" glancing at Amy, Qiao Fei said faintly.

"Um. I'm fine. I might have eaten something bad." Amy didn't know that Qiao Fei had switched her coffee with his.

"What do you think of… Lu Yan?" Qiao Fei asked suddenly.
