Fei Mingze's face darkened, and he was somewhat repulsed by this topic. After a moment, he said, "Never."

Lu Zichu said, "I don't believe it. Since you don't like her, why give up your research?"

"what?"

"Ah, no—" Lu Zichu was talking about something that happened in his previous life. It would be confusing to talk about it again in this life, so he could only perfunctorily pass it off, "Okay, it's your turn to ask."

"Then do you have someone you like?"

"Master Fei is so gossipy?"

"correct."

Lu Zichu thought about it, and then thought again, "No."

Fei Mingze suddenly became in a good mood, "So pitiful."

"gloat."

Lu Zichu turned around and was about to leave.

Fei Mingze called him, "Zichu——"

Lu Zichu turned around and said, "Hmm?"

Fei Mingze said something in Italian.

"what?"

"you guess."

"I'm too lazy to guess." Lu Zichu waved his hand at him, "Let's go, Master Fei. I'm freezing to death. If I stand any longer, I'm going to turn into an ice sculpture."

Fei Mingze walked up and held his hand.

Lu Zichu raised the hands of the two people and asked, "What for?"

"Aren't you cold? Let me warm you up."

"Since it's so cold, I don't mind being taken advantage of by you."

"Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed? I remember when we were in China, you would be unhappy for a few days if I held your hand once."

"This is a foreign country, no one knows me anyway." Lu Zichu glanced at him, "What about you?"

"I'm thick-skinned. Isn't that what you always say?"

"exactly."

The two of them found a cafe and spent two or three hours there.

We arrived at the place on time at six o'clock.

It was a private club.

You need an invitation to enter. After Fei Mingze told Annie Chen that he would come, she sent the invitation to the hotel where he was staying.

When walking into the carved fence gate, Fei Mingze took off his collar pin and put it on Lu Zichu.

Lu Zichu was confused, "What's wrong?"

"Let me borrow it for one night."

"Are you so stingy? I thought you were going to give it to me."

"Really like it?"

"Ah."

"Then I'll give it to you."

Lu Zichu had been coveting it, but when Fei Mingze agreed, he didn't dare to accept it, and he couldn't explain why.

"To show hospitality for nothing is to be either an adulterer or a thief."

The two walked into the conference hall, which was extremely luxurious, with a high dome, a Gothic-style building, and a light yellow marble floor that was so shiny that one could see through it.

There were lotus-shaped lanterns hanging inside, with candles on them. But because of today's show, some modern equipment was placed there, including lighting and sound, as well as a lot of champagne and roses.

The walls were hung with paintings in exquisite silver frames, and scarlet velvet curtains hung at the windows.

There were not many guests, but they were all well-dressed upper-class people with elegant conversation and decent manners. Some spoke not only Chinese, but also French, English, Italian, and Hong Kong and Taiwan accents.

There was a woman with short hair and wearing a black dress standing at the door to greet people. Judging from the style of her clothes, it must be Annie Chen.

As soon as she saw Fei Mingze, she politely sent the guests around her away and then stepped forward to receive him.

She originally wanted to give him a hug, but Fei Mingze extended his hand first. She looked a little embarrassed, so she had to shake his hand. "Long time no see, Figaro. I sent you an invitation before, but you always made excuses not to come. What happened today? You surprised me."

"I'm a very busy person. I'm here with a friend this time. He likes your design very much." Fei Mingze took the opportunity to introduce Lu Zichu to her, "This is Lu Zichu, my childhood sweetheart. He also studied in the UK, but in Oxford."

Lu Zichu handed her a bouquet of flowers he had bought on the road, "Nice to meet you, Miss Chen."

Annie Chen was about to say something when her eyes subconsciously saw the collar pin. Her face changed immediately. She looked at Lu Zichu, then at Fei Mingze, and seemed to understand something.

Lu Zichu also realized that not only was the collar pin not simple, but the relationship between Annie Chen and Fei Mingze was definitely not simple either.

Annie Chen took the flowers and forced a smile, "Congratulations, Figaro."

Lu Zichu was even more puzzled. How could he say such a thing?

Fei Mingze looked normal, "Thank you."

A guest came back in, and Annie Chen excused herself and went to socialize.

The two sat down. But Fei Mingze was called away at the beginning. Many of their Cambridge classmates came today, and seeing him, they had to have a short gathering.

Lu Zichu had nothing to do. He was playing with the ornaments on the table and guessing the relationship between the two people.

The rumors were spreading like wildfire. They were spoken in English, and Lu Zichu pricked up his ears and heard every word.

"Could it be that the best couple in our school are getting back together?"

"It's very likely. Annie and Figaro have been dating for two years and thought they would get married after graduation, but they unexpectedly decided to break up after returning from their trip. What a pity, they are such a perfect match."

"Annie would send an invitation to Figaro every year when she held a show to reserve a spot for him. But I haven't been there once in the past three years. It's really heartbreaking."

"Will there be a turnaround this year? Will there be a surprise after this is over?"

"Proposal?"

"It's very possible."

"Annie still has the photos she took of Figaro during her travels hanging in her house, and she still has feelings for him. If it's a real proposal, Annie will definitely say yes."

……

Lu Zichu, [It’s over. 】

Leonardo da Vinci, what happened?

[It turned out to be her ex! No matter what Fei Mingze asked her for, it would definitely fail. You know, the ex-girlfriend is the most terrifying thing in the world. ]

【Not necessarily.】

Do you suggest I give it a try?

[What I mean is, it's not like she won't agree no matter what you ask. At least there's a 50% chance of success.]

[Yes. Maybe Annie Chen would agree to anything if she was happy.] Lu Zichu patted his chest, feeling happy after surviving a disaster, [That was a close call! That was a close call!]

A few minutes later, Fei Mingze came back.

Lu Zichu asked, "Are you going to propose today?"

Fei Mingze, "???"

"I just told you that your proposal will be successful today."

"really?"

Lu Zichu nodded vigorously, "It's a pity that there are no props."

Fei Mingze took the roses on the table and asked, "Does this count?"

"The diamond ring is missing. This is the most important prop."

Fei Mingze took off a diamond ring from his neck and said, "Yes, I have one."

"Ah, perfect. Go ahead."

"Then will you marry me?"

Lu Zichu was petrified on the spot, "I asked you to go find your ex-girlfriend."

"My ex-girlfriend?"

"Isn't that Annie Chen?"

"how do you know?"

"Rumors are everywhere. If they come to your door, you should listen to them."

"Rumors stop at the wise."

"You guys have never dated?"
