Chapter 172 Illegitimate Child Qu Si
Lu Huai was always suspicious and didn't believe that Qi Yang had such good intentions.
Moreover, the relationship between the Lu family and the Qi family has always been adversarial, and can hardly be considered harmonious.
Lu Huai casually glanced at Qu Si, wondering where a young boy who looked so immature got the audacity to say such things to him here.
Qi Yang sighed, "Xiao Qu, I'm only responsible for the introduction. Whether you can win President Lu's favor is up to you."
Qu Si lowered her eyelashes, concealing the darkness in her eyes.
He said in a low voice, "Give me three days."
Lu Huai didn't speak, but squinted and scrutinized the boy in front of him.
Sheng Yuanze spoke up at the opportune moment: "Why not give this kid a chance, President Lu?"
Lu Huai said indifferently, "Three days. If you can't do it, then get out of here. I don't need trash."
Qu Si pursed her lips: "Thank you, President Lu."
After the party ended.
Sheng Yuanze approached Qi Yang alone.
The two people were talking while leaning against the balcony wall.
Sheng Yuanze leaned against the balcony wall, his handsome face turned to the side, and asked in a lazy tone, "Do you know who did Lu Huai's thing?"
Qi Yang took a swig of his drink and said, "What's it to me?"
He said in a light tone, "What? Suddenly thinking about brotherhood?"
Sheng Yuanze squinted: "No, not at all."
He and Lu Huai were just superficial friends.
Of course, that's not entirely accurate. There are no real brothers or friends in their circle; there are only exchanges of interests.
"Who is this Qu Si?" Sheng Yuanze asked casually.
Qi Yang didn't intend to hide it from him, since Qu Si's identity was very easy to find out.
He asked, "Don't you think he looks a lot like someone?"
Sheng Yuanze raised an eyebrow, recalling Qu Si's features.
Only then did he slowly come to his senses.
Qu Si looks somewhat like Lu Huai's father.
He had met Lu Huai's father, Lu Zhenxing, a few times before, so he still remembered him somewhat.
Recalling Lu Zhenxing's scandalous affairs and the illegitimate children he had conceived, Sheng Yuanze looked at Qi Yang meaningfully: "Are you planning to plant a pawn next to Lu Huai?"
Qi Yang remained noncommittal.
He learned by chance that Qu Si was Lu Zhenxing's illegitimate son.
Qu Si was born in a slum and was barely raised by a thug. His biological mother left home and disappeared shortly after he was born.
Slums are not places for ordinary people to live; it's common knowledge there that the environment is dirty and chaotic.
The resources inside are all obtained by robbing, seizing, and risking one's life to have any chance of survival.
One can imagine what Qu Si, who grew up in such an environment, was like.
Qi Yang was initially attracted by Qu Si's ruthlessness, which led him to bring Qu Si to his racing club.
He was just looking for fun, but he didn't expect Qu Si to be so fierce in a fight. Although he fought without any strategy, his punches were ruthless, which showed that he had the same violent tendencies as Qu Si.
Qu Si watched Lu Huai get into the luxury car and leave, his expression somewhat ambiguous under the night lights.
Having witnessed the extravagance and splendor of the upper class, you can no longer accept the impoverished self you once were.

At this moment, Gu Qianqiu's belly had already begun to show, and outsiders could tell at a glance that the woman in front of them was pregnant.
Yan Si stared at Gu Qianqiu's stomach, his expression complicated: "You really are still the same old you."
Gu Qianqiu smiled faintly: "You know, I've had enough of a hard life. My mother taught me from a young age to use men as stepping stones to climb to the top, not to love them."
Yan Si: "But your mother didn't do it."
Gu Qianqiu's smile faded: "It's enough that her daughter does it."
Gu Qianqiu is a child born into a single-parent family.
She didn't know who her father was, nor had she ever met him. Whenever she mentioned her father, her mother always looked resentful.
Over time, Gu Qianqiu stopped wanting to mention that man.
My mother is gentle, generous and beautiful, and even with her, she still has no shortage of men who pursue her.
When Gu Qianqiu was seven or eight years old, she often saw her mother change boyfriends every few days. These boyfriends all had one thing in common: they were rich.
They were very generous with their mothers, showering them with luxury goods, villas, and cars, but none of them ever asked their families to let them marry their mothers.
At that time, she didn't understand why her mother had to deal with these people. Later, her mother told her that men are creatures who can have true love, but true love has an expiration date. One second they may love you, and the next second they may abandon you.
Only what you can truly control is yours, and that is wealth and honor.
Unfortunately, her mother couldn't do it; she was still thinking about that man until her death.
Yan Si picked up his coffee and took a sip. "Do you like Lu Huai?"
This is a question he has always wanted to ask.
He should say he wanted to ask this as early as four years ago.
Gu Qianqiu smiled and said, "Of course I like him! If you mean Lu Huai from the Lu family in Yancheng, then of course I like him."
"Would you still like him if you disregarded everything he has now?"
Gu Qianqiu said frankly, "I'm sorry, I can't let it go."
"I have always believed that to love someone is to love all of them."
If Lu Huai didn't have his current status, position, and family background, she would never have gone to such lengths to get close to him a few years ago.
Gu Qianqiu's goal has always been very clear: to marry into a wealthy family and become a person in power, not just a rich wife.
If Lu Huai disobeyed, she would find ways to force him to obey.
She had been planning all of this for a long time.
Even Lu Huai's broken leg was part of her plan.
Finally, the goal is to find a way to make the child in her womb the sole heir of the Lu family.
Yan Si sighed: "What you did before was too risky. What if the Lu family finds out about you? Have you thought about what will happen to you?"
Gu Qianqiu: "Isn't that what you're here for?"
The matter-of-fact tone left Yan Si somewhat amused and exasperated.
He looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Only a woman as wicked as you would fall for me."
Gu Qianqiu did not respond.
Yan Si thought for a moment, then said with a hint of resentment, "I don't think I'm any worse than Lu Huai, so why didn't you consider me?"
Gu Qianqiu: "It's probably because Lu Huai is more in line with my aesthetic."
Her feelings for Lu Huai were rather shallow, but his face was indeed to her liking.

"Hey handsome, wanna add me on WeChat?"
The voluptuous dancer immediately spotted the man sitting in a corner fiddling with a Rubik's Cube.
Even with his head down, the man couldn't hide his strikingly handsome features and exceptionally graceful figure.
When the dancer saw that the man completely ignored her, her competitive spirit was immediately aroused.
With a graceful dance, she arrived in front of Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao looked up at the woman in front of him and frowned: "Auntie, could you stay away from me? You smell terrible."
Dancer: "..."
