Troublesome Concern
Huang Yu waved at that person vigorously, excited almost to the point of jumping. If it weren't for the many people around him, he'd probably be spinning around in place.
At this time, his stomach started to make rumbling noise. Huang Yu sighed. He hadn't eaten anything today, all because of that old geezer! It would be just to tell me my daddy's name! So I don't have to search one by one!
Huang Yu took the file folder; it was thick. No wonder my daddy left you! As he walked, Huang Yu took the chance to see if there was anything to eat. He walked over to a restaurant entrance. There was nothing on the sign board save for a small, golden trumpet, but based on the decorations inside it didn't look cheap. He didn't bring his card, and he didn't know if he had enough cash on him. Huang Yu had never done anything on credit!
He was just about to leave, but who knew he would catch sight of that person through the window. And they locked eyes!
Huang Yu was ecstatic. He hurriedly pushed in the door. Who cares if there wasn't enough money? But that face he saw was darkening…
Lu Xu saw Huang Yu come in through the door. He stopped him from walking in. "Young Mister Huang, what business do you have here?"
Huang Yu thought nothing of it and pointed inside, declaring arrogantly, "I'm looking for Liu Shenghao!"
Lu Xu always had a policy of not offending the mighty. He stepped aside to let Huang Yu pa.s.s. This was going to be fun!
Huang Yu looked at Liu Shenghao and strode over powerfully. Sitting next to him, he said, "Shengsheng!"
Liu Shenghao ignored him and continued to nurse his drink. Huang Yu was just about to say something, when his stomach made a sound…
Next to them, Lu Xu was somewhat dumbfounded, but Liu Shenghao responded. "Are you trying to starve Young Master Huang! Do you think your shop can remain open…" Obviously, he was trying to mock Huang Yu, but from the start, Huang Yu didn't get that at all. Instead to his understanding it was "troublesome concern"!
"Yes, yes, right away! I will go prepare. What does Young Master Huang like to eat?"
Huang Yu thought about it. "Sweet and sour pork! And steamed ba.s.s! And Shengsheng's favorite steamed pork with pickled vegetables! And three bowls of rice!"
"I won't eat…" started Liu Shenghao.
"Then two bowls of rice…" amended Huang Yu.
It was strange that he ordered three bowls of rice; so the brat wanted two for himself! Being able to eat was such a blessing! Lu Xu smiled evilly at Liu Shenghao and signalled him with his eyes. "This one will need a lot of food for upkeep! You can't hold back!"
Liu Shenghao kicked him. He ignored the anguished wailing and continued to drink his beer…
Huang Yu put his things on the table, then stared at Liu Shenghao without moving.
After a little while, the food was served, and Huang Yu continued to stare.
"What are you looking at! Hurry up and eat!"
"O!" Hang Yu finally responded and reached out with his chopsticks, and also gave Liu Shenghao a few chopsticks full of meat. Liu Shenghao didn't say anything, but ate a few mouthfuls, causing Huang Yu's smile to widen. This was the first time they were having a harmonious meal together!
After he ate his fill, Lu Xu came to chat. He saw the bag on the table and asked Huang Yu what it was.
Huang Yu was about to say something but then stopped himself. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and said, "It's a secret!"
Lu Xu's lips curled. He took out the bill and said, "Then Young Master Huang please hurry up and settle the bill!"
Huang Yu took the bill and exclaimed, "Three thousand five hundred! This is robbery!" Huang Yu raised his head. "How can this little dish be so expensive!?"
Lu Xu smiled and shook his head. "Even if it's expensive, people still eat it! Young Master Huang, didn't you eat it?"
Huang Yu muttered to himself while taking out his wallet. He only had a little over a thousand…
"I didn't bring enough money…" he said.
"Credit card is fine!"
"I didn't bring a card!"
"Call someone to bring it?"
"No! Shameful!"
"Then what are you going to do? You could borrow…" Lu Xu looked slyly at Liu Shenghao.
Huang Yu also stared at him pathetically. "Shengsheng, lend me some many!" This way he would have a chance to trap him!
Liu Shenghao could not know what Huang Yu was thinking. He shook his head. "I don't…"
… Huang Yu became angry. "I am going to marry you! How can you see death and still not lend a hand!"
"If you can not marry me, then I can rescue you!"
"Impossible!" Huang Yu huffed!
Huang Yu, who would die for face, rejected each of Lu Xu's suggestions.
In the end Lu Xu also became vexed. "My store does not provide free meals! I guess I will have to call the police. Let's see what you do then!"
Huang Yu, who had been pampered and spoiled since childhood, had never been treated by anyone this way. He was about to speak his mind when someone interrupted him…
"Who's calling the police?"
Lu Xu turned around. "Uncle, why are you here?"
"Your mom told me to bring you out for clothes shopping. Tonight you are going to have a meal with the daughter of the Zhong family."
"What?!" Lu Xu exclaimed angrily.
Huang Yu ran over and tugged on Uncle Lu's arm. "Teacher Lu! What are you doing here?"
"Not to be grabbed by you!" teased as he shoved Huang Yu's head lightly.
"You know each other?" asked Lu Xu.
"That's right! Teacher Lu is my fine arts teacher!" Huang Yu's smile was dazzling.
Seeing his uncle and Huang Yu so close, he felt that the two were somewhat similar. When Uncle accused Lu Xu of overreacting, he tugged on his uncle and said, "Uncle, I am thee blood son of your sister! Why are you so intimate with an outsider? If I didn’t know I would think that you two were family!"
Huang Yu took no notice of this playful sentence, but Liu Shenghao accidentally caught Uncle Lu's composure slip for a split-second. Then he suddenly realized that HUang Yu and Uncle Lu had a lot of similar characteristics…
In the end, Huang Yu left laughing with Uncle Lu, leaving Lu Xu to pick up a bit before following them.
"Haozi, are you staying or going? I'm going to look for my uncle in a bit."
"I'll wait for you. I should go home. By the way, what's your uncle's name?"
"Lu Jiangyu… what about it?" Lu Xu asked strangely.
"Nothing…" Liu Shenghao got to his feet and was about to leave when he suddenly saw his good friend squat where he stood. He asked, "What's up with you?"
"I suddenly realized that brat and my uncle's name share a character! I also want to change my name!"
"…"
