Chapter 1084: Chapter 1083: Dinner Party! Heh, All Old Acquaintances

Wang Kefu sighed lightly: "Do you think I like children? Anyway, you little rascal don’t understand adult matters. In any case, now I regret it a bit. If time could reverse, I would definitely not get involved with her and stay far away."

"Those words are quite hurtful to hear." Gu Anxi replied somewhat nonchalantly: "If Uncle likes kids, then take your precious one and move elsewhere. If not, just stay at home with her."

Wang Kefu immediately shouted: "How could I go against the old man’s wishes? Besides, the old man has been troubling me recently."

Gu Anxi smirked: "Alright, if you’re not worried about your kid, then I don’t need to be worried either."

Having said enough, Wang Kefu gave the address and hurried off to attend to his social obligations, while Gu Anxi dialed Chen Ming in the car. Chen Ming hadn’t left yet, so he came down immediately. Upon hanging up, she waved him over: "Join me for a drinks gathering."

Without any suspicion, Chen Ming simply got in her car and then asked, "Where to?"

Gu Anxi chuckled: "Just an ordinary dinner event, invited by Mr. Wang, who said there will be celebrities. Chen Ming, is it alright with you? Should we arrange something with Zhou Su?"

"Someone will take care of her." Chen Ming smiled slightly and then tapped on her seatback: "I’ll drive."

Gu Anxi thought about it and agreed, then switched seats with him.

Chen Ming thought she wouldn’t joke with him after the last incident, but he ended up being tricked again. As he drove, he asked, "Who were you calling?"

Gu Anxi smiled: "Dr. Lu."

Chen Ming was startled: "Lu Heng? Why are you inviting him?"

Gu Anxi didn’t respond because the call had already connected. She calmly asked Lu Heng if he had time to join the gathering, and Lu Heng was surprised but quickly asked, "Are you going?"

"Yes, Chen Ming and I are going," Gu Anxi replied softly, "I heard Lin Yuan will be there too. Aren’t you eager to meet him?"

Lu Heng was back at the hotel, took his car keys, and said, "Give me the address, I’ll be right there."

After Gu Anxi mentioned the place, she hung up, and Lu Heng also ended the call. Looking at his phone, he felt somewhat puzzled, and of course, he knew Gu Anxi was up to no good—this girl had too many trickster ideas. Wang Kefu fell for it and got himself involved, costing the Wang Family quite a bit.

After zoning out for a while, Lu Heng put his phone in his pocket and prepared to leave. Mrs. Lu happened to come out just as he was leaving again and asked, "Lu Heng, you just got back, why are you heading out again? Dinner will be ready soon."

Lu Heng paused, "Just a dinner meeting."

Lu Xueman expressed discontent: "What’s so important in Jiangcheng that you have to attend? Besides, your injury isn’t healed, you shouldn’t drink."

She was even more displeased, "Last time, you chased all the way to Qingcheng only to be messed up by that Anxi girl, Lu Heng, you should be more careful. I see that the Bo Family is quite well-behaved, how did Xichen marry such a troublesome girl? And you, Lu Heng, what’s good about this girl that she’s got you so fixated?"

Lu Heng raised his hand to check: "Almost healed, besides, it was an accident."

Lu Xueman remained worried: "Anyway, stay away from her when you can. Things are never good when you run into her, by the way, she won’t be present tonight, right?"

Lu Heng’s heart skipped a beat, then he smiled: "No, why would she?"

"Good, be sure to come home early, your dad hasn’t been in a good mood lately," Mrs. Lu advised.

Speaking of Lu Ze’s mood, Lu Xueman felt somewhat upset, realizing that Lu Ze was still thinking about Lin Yun and had been lingering outside. That young girl, she had seen photos, somewhat resembling Lin Yun in her younger days.

After Mrs. Lu finished speaking, Lu Heng nodded and left, driving to the mentioned venue. The waiter led him to a private room on the second floor, and upon opening the door, he found the interior as luxurious as top-tier Beicheng establishments, filled with familiar faces.

Not only were Gu Anxi and Chen Ming there, but also Song Jia and several second and third-tier actresses, even Qin Siyuan and Lin Yuan were present. To his surprise, even Wang Kefu, this uncouth fellow, was there.

Upon seeing Lu Heng at the doorway, the people inside were half surprised and half joyful, especially Wang Kefu, who came over with a trembling voice, holding a wineglass: "Dr. Lu, never thought you would come, it’s truly..."

Being an unsophisticated guy, he didn’t know how to express himself, glancing at the others: "No one anticipated it, did they? No idea who had the clout to invite Dr. Lu."

Lu Heng hadn’t expected such a grand reception, feeling rather sick inside, yet he still had to maintain a composed demeanor as he majestically walked inside, saying: "Anxi invited me; Mr. Wang didn’t know?"

Then, picking up a small cup and raising it slightly: "A toast to Little Gu; what a delightful surprise."

He wasn’t like Wang Kefu in bluntness, and seeing this Wang fellow made him realize Gu Anxi’s intent to disgust him intentionally, but he didn’t particularly care; it was merely the Wang fellow’s gaze that made him uncomfortable.

Gu Anxi leaned against a set of leather sofas, the light casting on her face, looking quite attractive with a playful smile, "Surprise, I wouldn’t say that; as long as Dr. Lu is happy."

After speaking, she gestured for him to sit down, then turned to Lin Yuan and said, "Uncle Lin, Dr. Lu is also an old acquaintance."

Lin Yuan chuckled warmly, patting Qin Siyuan’s hand back softly, showing tender familiarity: "Mr. Qin is investing in a film, allowing us ordinary folks to meet Miss Jia and Dr. Lu. I’ve heard Dr. Lu is a very eligible bachelor, quite sought after."

Qin Siyuan smiled: "Mr. Lin is too kind."

Lin Yuan also smiled and then glanced at Chen Ming, continuing, "Actually, Anxi invited Lu Heng here, also intending to match Lu Heng with someone, Chen Ming, what do you think? Doesn’t it seem like a good match?"

Chen Ming hadn’t anticipated being directly called out, feeling distressed but managed to say after some time, "They need to decide for themselves."

Lin Yuan took a sip of his drink: "Look at you, Chen Ming, been with Anxi for only a few days and you’ve become quite the witty one, speaking so fluidly. Alright, let me ask them."

Before he could ask, Wang Kefu eagerly chimed in: "I think they look good together, but their star signs might not be compatible; some match now but not when their rising signs change."

Gu Anxi was drinking water, almost spitting it out at his words: "Uncle, you know about rising signs?"
