God of Racing

Chapter 530 - 518

...

Outside the room, Tang Yueze was just about to knock on the door.

"Yuezhe." A graceful figure ran towards him—it was Lu Feixuan.

Tang Yueze frowned. He found himself a bit helpless in dealing with this third young lady, "Miss Feixuan."

How could Lu Feixuan miss her older brother’s birthday? Tonight, she wore a short apricot-pink dress that complemented her complexion, making her look charming and sweet.

"Yuezhe." Lu Feixuan approached with a smile, taking Tang Yueze’s arm, "Shall we go to the front together?"

"Miss Feixuan." Tang Yueze subtly moved aside to avoid Lu Feixuan, "I must follow the young master. You should go find Miss Gong!"

Lu Feixuan pouted, "My brother is definitely with Gong Xueyan tonight; we make a perfect pair... just like us..."

Hearing this, Tang Yueze felt a shiver run up his spine, and his tone became somewhat severe.

"Miss Feixuan, you and I... will never be a pair."

"..." Lu Feixuan froze, as if hit by a blow!

Tang Yueze didn’t want to entangle further, shaking his head and sighing, "Miss Feixuan, if you don’t want to find Miss Gong, you can look for Ji Qing. Weren’t you always well-matched?"

"..." Lu Feixuan glared, yelling, "Do you really dislike me that much?"

Tang Yueze lowered his head, "I wouldn’t dare, ma’am. You are the master, and I am the servant. Our relationship doesn’t lend itself to talking of dislike."

"You..." Lu Feixuan was infuriated by him, stamping her foot and shouting, "Great! Tang Yueze, you’ll regret this! I’ll never talk to you again!"

With that, she turned and ran away.

Tang Yueze had a headache. It wasn’t that he felt inferior, but... he truly couldn’t conjure up such feelings for a child.

The door opened just then, and Lu Jinxuan emerged after tidying up, casting a glance at Tang Yueze, "What’s going on?"

Tang Yueze was slightly stunned, "Hm? Nothing, sir. I was waiting for you."

"Is that so?" Lu Jinxuan smirked, "Then let’s go!"

In the banquet hall, all the key members of the Lu Family were present, including important branch families. In such a setting, Lu Jinxuan couldn’t possibly be absent.

"Jinxuan!" Gong Xueyan was undoubtedly the most dazzlingly dressed among the ladies, her status clear and conspicuous. She approached him, wanting to accompany Lu Jinxuan.

Lu Jinxuan glanced at her, smirking, "Miss Gong, tonight is my birthday feast, not our engagement party. Do you have to be in such a rush?"

"..." Gong Xueyan was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Lu Jinxuan reined in that trace of cold smile, "It means you’re not yet qualified to link arms with me to blow out candles and cut the cake."

He dropped this line and moved forward with Tang Yueze. Gong Xueyan stood in place; even with heavy makeup, she couldn’t conceal the pallor beneath...

The scene was brightly lit, filled with fragrance and elegance, the aroma of wine wafting, and delicious food aplenty.

Lu Jinxuan made a composed entrance, accepted the attention and blessings from all present, feeling that tonight was his true coming-of-age ceremony. After today, many things would take a turn in another direction.

"Jinxuan, the elders of both families are waiting for you..."

Mrs. Lu came over, quietly reminding her son.

Lu Jinxuan glanced at her, then looked at his father not far away, asking, "Mom, aren’t you tired?"

Mrs. Lu’s face stiffened, "What do you mean by that?"

"Don’t you understand what I mean?" Lu Jinxuan sighed, speaking so clearly for the first time, "Your hearts haven’t been together for a long time, yet you can still pretend to be a loving couple. Mom... I hurt for you!"

"Jinxuan!" Mrs. Lu’s face changed suddenly, shouting to stop her son.

"No need to speak!" Lu Jinxuan raised his hand to stop his mother, "I don’t want to hear it. But Mom... I won’t live my life like yours."

"Hmph." Mrs. Lu also laughed, it was a sneer, "Won’t you? Son, for people like us, how can you demand so much? Everyone gains something and loses something; it’s impossible to have both! How come you’re already this age and still don’t see through it?"

Lu Jinxuan remained unfazed, "I’m different. I will prove to you that I can have both!"

While the mother and son were locked in a standoff, Tang Yueze hurriedly ran over, "Young master!"

"What is it?" Lu Jinxuan frowned, "So flustered, what are you talking about?"

Tang Yueze was very anxious, "Young master, there’s some trouble with Miss Mu’s side... it seems like she’s got a stomachache and is now curled up in pain!"

"What?" Lu Jinxuan panicked, immediately turning and walking away, "Prepare the car quickly!"

"Yes!"

Mrs. Lu saw this, fury surging, "Son, what are you going to do? On such an occasion, how can you leave? Mr. and Mrs. Gong are here, and Xueyan is waiting to meet the elders with you!"

Lu Jinxuan didn’t turn back, as if he hadn’t heard her at all.

"Son..."

Mr. and Mrs. Gong, having waited a long time for him without success, came over together.

Mr. Gong still didn’t understand the situation, "Mrs. Lu, where is Jinxuan?"

"This..." Mrs. Lu, facing Mrs. Gong, didn’t know how to speak.

Mrs. Gong frowned, her heart was already disturbed of late. Because of the situation with Yu Sangwan and Lu Jinxuan, she couldn’t hold back anymore.

"Mrs. Lu, Jinxuan can’t go on like this! Do you know what day it is today? He just left like this? Since he is to be engaged to Xueyan, he shouldn’t continue to mess around outside..."

Of course, most importantly... why was he still getting involved with her daughter Taotao?

Mr. Gong, hearing this, was greatly surprised, pulling his wife back, "What are you talking about?"

Mrs. Gong looked at her husband, coldly saying, "I was going to talk to you about this matter anyway, so... why not take this opportunity to speak out. Hongming, I don’t think Jinxuan and Xueyan are suitable. I oppose their marriage!"

"Mrs. Gong!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lu’s face changed dramatically.

Lu Yusen also walked over from the crowd, looking at her, "What happened?"
