Upon hearing this, Lu Lingyu looked up and saw Fang Yuqing.

Fang Yuqing happened to walk in from the door.

She had specially dressed up today. She was wearing a custom-made silver-white dress. The dress was designed with strapless straps, and the skirt was in a pleated style. The creases were decorated with threads of silver. She was holding a mini banquet bag in her hand and wore a wide-brimmed diamond bracelet on her wrist. A few strands of curly hair hung on her forehead, but she had a low bun on the back of her head.

Fang Yuqing rarely dressed so formally. This was the first time Lu Lingyu saw her like this, and his eyes lit up.

“You’re so beautiful tonight.” He held Fang Yuqing’s hand and pretended to kiss her.

Fang Yuqing tilted her head slightly and said, “Don’t. I have a layer of paint on my face. Do you want to dirty your mouth?”

Wall paint?!

After being rejected, not only was Lu Lingyu not angry, the smile on his lips deepened.

“Then let’s go in.”

After the two of them entered the venue, Fang Yuqing looked around and saw some familiar faces. However, what made her feel the most at ease was still Qi Bufan. She walked towards Qi Bufan. When Qi Bufan followed Fang Yusheng, he was always wearing casual loose clothes. Tonight, he was wearing a formal suit. He looked dignified and attracted the attention of many mature women.

Qi Bufan’s real looks were actually very popular with mature women.

Fang Yuqing called out to Brother Bufan and walked towards him.

“Miss Yuqing.” Qi Bufan picked a glass of champagne from the wine on the table and handed it to her.

Fang Yuqing smiled and thanked him.

She did not drink and felt at ease staying with Qi Bufan. She asked Qi Bufan, “Why is Brother Bufan here?”

“Here’s the thing. My training base is working with Mr. Lu’s security company.”

Fang Yuqing finally understood.

“I see.”

Qi Bufan had heard about Fang Yuqing and Lu Lingyu from Fang Yusheng. He sized Lu Lingyu up seriously before saying to Fang Yuqing, “If Young Master Lu knows his place from now on, he’s a good match.” He said the prerequisite was that Lu Lingyu had to know his place from now on.

If this person was still unrestrained, he was clearly not someone worth entrusting her life to.

When Qi Bufan saw Fang Yuqing, he always subconsciously treated himself as an elder. His adopted daughter, Dai Chukong and Fang Yuqing were about the same age, only a year younger than her. Fang Yuqing and Dai Chukong were on good terms, so Qi Bufan could not help but care more about Fang Yuqing choosing a man.

Hearing Qi Bufan’s words, Fang Yuqing’s heart warmed.

“I understand.”

She did not explain much to Qi Bufan.

After Lu Lingyu finished talking to the others, he returned to Fang Yuqing’s side. He was a little surprised to see her chatting happily with Qi Bufan. “You guys know each other?” Qi Bufan had opened a training base for a few years, and Lu Lingyu had just returned not long ago. He still did not know the relationship between Qi Bufan and Fang Yusheng.

The two of them smiled at each other and nodded at the same time.

Lu Lingyu did not probe further.

He pulled Fang Yuqing to the side and took out a tissue from his suit pants. He handed the tissue to Fang Yuqing and said, “Take a look and guess what this is.”

Fang Yuqing opened the tissue and saw a phone number.

She was stunned for a moment. When she realized that a certain lady wanted to hit on Lu Lingyu and had deliberately left her number, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Fifth Young Master Lu is really charming. Your admirers can be seen everywhere.” It was impossible to tell if she was mocking or admiring him.

Lu Lingyu’s face fell. He pointed at a man in a black suit in the hall and told Fang Yuqing, “The person who handed me the tissue is a man.” He waited for Fang Yuqing to look over before saying, “It’s him. He’s the third son of the Lin family, the famous gay.”

At the thought that Fang Yusheng had gotten himself into trouble to take revenge on him, Lu Lingyu wanted to curse.

Even though he was a straight man, the entire city treated him like a gay. What could he do?

Fang Yuqing could not help but wipe bitter tears for Lu Lingyu.

“How did the rumors about you being gay come about?” Fang Yuqing still did not know what was going on.

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingyu’s expression turned cold. He said in a gloomy tone, “Go back and ask Fang Yusheng from your Fang family. He knows the ins and outs of the matter.”

Fang Yuqing was stunned again.

Was this her Brother Yusheng’s doing?

As an unconditional fan of her brother, when Brother Yusheng was slandered, Fang Yuqing naturally had to complain to Fang Yusheng unconditionally. Her expression turned serious and she said righteously, “My Brother Yusheng doesn’t have the bad taste to mess with people casually. You must have provoked him first.”

Lu Lingyu was too embarrassed to tell Fang Yuqing that he wanted to have sex with Qiao Jiusheng.

Lu Lingyu felt a little gloomy.

When the cocktail party was about to end, Young Master Lin San pestered Lu Lingyu again. Although he was a gay, Young Master Lin’s speech and temperament were extremely manly. He called out to Fifth Young Master Lu and asked him bluntly, “Tonight is very boring. I have many fun things to play with. Fifth Young Master Lu, are you willing to give me face?”

Lu Wu felt goosebumps all over his body.

He stared at Young Master Lin and really wanted to ask, “What fun? Playing with your butt?”

Sorry, I’m not interested in a man’s butt.

Coincidentally, Fang Yuqing had just finished greeting Qi Bufan and was about to leave when Lu Lingyu suddenly grabbed Fang Yuqing’s arm. He whispered into her ear, “It’s an emergency.”

Fang Yuqing turned her head to look at Lin San and immediately understood what he meant.

Lu Lingyu held Fang Yuqing’s hand and said to Lin San, “Sorry, my girlfriend is a little drunk. I have to accompany her. You guys can go play.”

Lin San was clearly surprised.

“Girlfriend?” He stared at Fang Yuqing, deep in thought.

Could the rumors be fake? Was Lu Lingyu really not gay?

Unfortunately, he was such a good man.

“Yes.” Lu Lingyu agreed, but he did not hear Fang Yuqing speak, so he secretly pinched Fang Yuqing. Fang Yuqing screamed in pain in her heart, but she smiled calmly. She leaned slightly on Lu Lingyu’s shoulder and pretended to be drunk. She said sweetly to Lu Lingyu, “Xiao Wu, my head hurts. Bring me to rest.”

“Okay.”

The two of them left Lin San’s vision affectionately.

Lin San seemed unwilling and chased after them.

It was not until he saw them enter the elevator that he believed that they were a couple.

The moment they entered the elevator, the two of them immediately separated. They were about to say something when the elevator door suddenly opened again and two men and a woman walked in. The two of them shut up at the same time and even stepped back a little. The two men who entered held a woman and stood in front.

The woman seemed to be drunk. Her long hair covered her face. When she entered the elevator, her head lay weakly in a man’s arms.

Fang Yuqing heard what the woman was saying. “Send me back. My brother is still waiting for me to go home!”

This voice sounded familiar.
