Billionaire's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 2509 - 650: The Past

"Sure, I’d love to."Lu Yinxing successfully changed the topic, then forced herself to forget everything.

She started to introduce Li ZhengKai to various city landmarks.

Finally, the car stopped at a restaurant.

Li ZhengKai said he wanted to eat hotpot.

Lu Yinxing brought him to a traditional Chongqing hotpot place.

When they went in, it was extremely lively inside.

They had to wait for quite a while before they got a table.

The two didn’t mind and just sat down in the hall.

The server came up quickly.

Lu Yinxing handed the menu to Li ZhengKai.

Li ZhengKai smiled and said, "I don’t really know what’s good, you decide."

Lu Yinxing nodded and started ordering.

Soon the hotpot base arrived, and the side dishes came quickly too, with the table filled with a variety of dishes.

The two started to eat quickly.

For so many years, it was the first time Lu Yinxing had eaten such authentic traditional hotpot.

Honestly, there’s plenty of hotpot places in Los Angeles’s Chinatown.

But Lu Yinxing had rarely eaten there.

It was really because it was too expensive, which for her, with very limited financial means, was a luxury.

Now, suddenly returning home, even a meal of hotpot instantly evoked such a sense of hometown.

Lu Yinxing suddenly felt like crying.

Li ZhengKai grew up in the United States, and even though he’s Chinese, his eating habits have always been American.

But Lu Yinxing didn’t expect Li ZhengKai to actually like spicy hotpot so much.

Lu Yinxing teased, "Senior, you’re really like a Chinese person."

Li ZhengKai laughed and said, "I naturally carry Chinese blood, and I have a Chinese stomach too."

Lu Yinxing smiled, "There aren’t many overseas Chinese who grew up in the United States with such a deep attachment to China like you."

Li ZhengKai smiled, "Maybe it’s my grandmother’s influence. My grandmother was born and raised in Saith, you know Saith? It’s a very beautiful place, with clear waters and verdant mountains. Later, she had to move to the United States with my grandfather, but over there she always missed her hometown and longed to live back in China. However, until her last breath, she was unable to fulfill her final wish. From my childhood, my grandmother always told me that Saith was a magical and misty place, and how beautiful the great landscapes of China were; thus I began to yearn for this place in my bones. I’ve come back this time, planning to travel to Saith."

Lu Yinxing was quite moved listening, "Saith is very close from here, just over an hour by subway. When you’re done with your work, I’ll accompany you there. I know it very well."

Li ZhengKai nodded, "Great, thank you, Annie."

"Senior, you’re too kind. Actually, I should be thanking you; if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have the opportunity to return to my country. Otherwise, I’d probably still be hesitating. I truly should thank you."

Lu Yinxing’s words piqued Li ZhengKai’s interest.

Li ZhengKai became intrigued by Lu Yinxing’s past: "Annie, I’ve known you in the United States for almost three years. I heard you came there only three years ago, but I’ve never heard you talk about your family, your relatives, or your experiences back in China. Could you tell me your story?"

Lu Yinxing was a bit taken aback.

Her story?

Her story is too complex, maybe normal people can’t even believe it.

Since going abroad, Lu Yinxing had never talked about it with anyone.

Even now, she naturally didn’t want to share it.
