In the Apartment: My Cute Girlfriend

"They are so rich, why is the check in their hands?" Dumas asked in confusion.

"Oh, the DV was found, but I still owe rent. They are the landlords." Lu Ziqiao scratched his head in embarrassment. Only in front of Alexandre Dumas would Lu Ziqiao behave so childishly.

"Oh." Dumas shook his head helplessly. What a silly kid he was.

"Although they are wealthy, I believe that all of humanity is no exception when it comes to making money. When the time comes, you must bring up the topic of making money without leaving any trace. Do you understand?"

Lu Ziqiao nodded in confirmation and muttered to himself to prevent himself from forgetting: "Leave no trace, leave no trace."

After the two decided on a countermeasure, they went to the dining table outside, but Yang Yu and Rose had disappeared, and the dinner on the table was gone too.

"You're back?" Lu Zhanbo looked at Lu Ziqiao and waved hello.

"Where are Yang Yu and Rose?" Lu Ziqiao stared at the empty plates in front of him in amazement. It was a mess.

"They left after eating. Oh, Yang Yu also said that the sausages tasted good. They enjoyed eating it very much." Lu Zhanbo said with a silly smile.

But Dumas and Lu Ziqiao were completely disappointed by these words, and all the bait they caught was eaten.

"It seems we can only talk about it later. However, Yang Yu is quite rich, so he shouldn't ask for it so soon." At this point, Lu Ziqiao could only comfort himself helplessly. After all, it is better for the check to be in Yang Yu's hands than in Hu Yifei's.

At least in Yang Yu's hands he could still have an intact body, but if he fell into Hu Yifei's hands he would probably die without a burial place.

Lu Ziqiao and Dumas took the elevator downstairs. In fact, Lu Ziqiao had wanted Dumas to stay here for a few days, but this time Dumas refused.

"Dad, you really won't stay for a few more days?" Lu Ziqiao felt a little regretful. He didn't know when he would see him again.

"It's okay, Ziqiao, it's a pity that I can't help you this time." Dumas felt a little guilty about this.

"Hey, that's nothing. At most I'll have to pay for it myself."

Lu Ziqiao pretended to be indifferent, but in fact he had already thought of a countermeasure. The moment he returned and saw Yang Yu, he knelt down and begged for mercy on the spot.

As the saying goes, as long as I kneel down first, no one can make me kneel down.

By the same token, as long as I fall into the abyss first, then every step I take next will be upward.

Looking at the mature Lu Ziqiao, Dumas felt a little sad that he was really old.

Dumas came to find Lu Ziqiao this time because he wanted to pass on all his life experiences to him, including the experience that was called sales but was actually a scam. After all, he was the one who could sell a brush to a bald man.

But this time, Dumas gave up. His child was not going to follow the path he had prepared. He chose another more challenging path, an adventure called life. He had no experience in this area, but he was not worried.

Because although Lu Ziqiao did not say it explicitly, Dumas knew that Lu Ziqiao must have companions who were adventuring with him, otherwise Lu Ziqiao would not stay here.

"Maybe it's time for me to move on to the next stage of my life."

Dumas couldn't help but feel like settling down, and just as he was thinking about this.

"Dear." A beautiful woman who looked a bit old and had white hair but was still very charming came up and looked at Dumas affectionately.

"Elisabeth? How did you get here?" Dumas couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this beauty.

This was a girl he met by chance in a foreign country. She was probably in her seventies. Although she was a little older, she was still a girl in his eyes.

Because of a chance encounter, after eating his specially made sausage dish, she fell hopelessly in love with him. She followed him all over the world, and even when Dumas tried to get rid of her, she still managed to catch him here.

"I am Elizabeth, Alexandre Dumas's fiancée." Elizabeth didn't care about what Dumas said. She turned around and introduced herself to Lu Ziqiao.

"Hello, stepmother." Lu Ziqiao kissed Elizabeth's hand, then looked at Dumas with some interest, his face full of ridicule.

Dumas was deeply helpless about this, but there was nothing he could do, blood is thicker than water.

"Honey, I forgive you for not answering my call. Can you come with me?" Elizabeth's posture was a little humble, but her words could not hide her happiness.

"I've already arranged a driver who can take us all the way to Shangri-La. The pastor has already made all the preparations at the wedding venue. The honeymoon and wedding suite are already arranged. We're just waiting for you."

"You are so thoughtful, but..." Dumas was a little surprised that this woman would go to such lengths for him. Lu Ziqiao couldn't help laughing as he watched the show in front of him.

Elizabeth raised her hand to stop Dumas before he could finish his words. Her words were filled with sadness: "Are you going to reject me again?"

But before he could finish, he turned around, glanced at Lu Ziqiao, and began to comfort himself again.

"It's okay, I'm still okay. It's only the eighth time. I can still hold on."

"No, I will go with you this time." Dumas denied Elizabeth's answer. Looking at Lu Ziqiao's current life, he also wondered whether he should have settled down earlier.

Faced with such a loving Elizabeth, Dumas was not a heartless person. He was just like a flying bird, never willing to look down.

"Really!" Elizabeth was extremely surprised at this moment. In fact, although she had already arranged everything, she also understood Dumas's thoughts and was prepared to cancel the plan at any time.

Unexpectedly, she succeeded on the eighth try. When she was bored and reading novels, she thought that she would have to do it at least the ninety-ninth time to have a chance.

Faced with such a big surprise, if Lu Ziqiao, the light bulb, hadn't been there, she would have rushed over.

"Wait a moment, I want to talk to my son."

As if sensing Elizabeth's thoughts, Dumas quickly pulled Lu Ziqiao aside and let Elizabeth calm down.

He looked at Lu Ziqiao's face carefully again. It was so similar to the young boy in his memory, but he was no longer the boy after all, and he was really old.

Lu Ziqiao also looked at Alexandre Dumas very seriously. He was his mature and steady godfather. Even though he had taken special care of himself, the years still left traces on his face.
