Lu Shijin was a member of this club and used to frequent it, so all the employees who had worked there for years recognized him. The moment he entered the clubhouse, someone came up to him and greeted him respectfully. "Good evening, CEO Lu.""Are Mr. Chu and the others here yet?" Lu Shijin asked."Yes. They're waiting for you in the usual private room."Tang Ruochu looked at the man who had come up to them and her eyes focused on the name tag pinned on his chest. She suddenly realized something. "So this man is the manager of the club."The manager swept a subtle glance at Tang Ruochu before smiling at Lu Shijin. "CEO Lu, this way please. I'll show you in."As a staff member of the club, the most important thing was not to intrude on the privacy of the guests.Even if the manager felt great curiosity about this woman with Lu Shijin, he would not dare to ask more.The manager took them to the private room on the 27th floor and turned to go.Just before leaving, he could not hel
Tang Ruochu asked what they each liked before making the orders.Chu Yuan could not help but sigh with emotion. "Sister-in-law is so considerate, she's taking care of all our tastebuds."Tang Ruochu looked up at him and said with a faint smile, "It's what I ought to do. You're all Shijin's best friends. If I ever fall out with him, I need you guys to be on my side."When he heard this, Shen Mu raised an eyebrow. "So you're trying to win us over, aren't you, Sister-in-law?""That's right," Tang Ruochu admitted frankly. Then, she turned her head and pretended to be vicious to Lu Shijin. "Shijin, don't make me angry, or they'll be nasty to you."Lu Shijin raised his slender brows slightly and there were amusement and tenderness in his eyes. He said softly, "Don't worry, my lady. Such a day will never come to pass."Tang Ruochu lightly bit her lip, a sweet smile spreading across her beautiful, small face.At this moment, there came a sudden cry from the side. "Oh no, I'm blind!"Ta
"Yes, yes, I am joking." Shen Mu agreed as he laughed even louder.The atmosphere within the private room was fantastic. Everyone was chatting casually and light-heartedly.Tang Ruochu was in a good mood, hence she drank more than she could handle. Being drunk, her head got dizzy as her face reddened. Under the bright lights, she seemed even more tantalizing."Come on, Sister-in-law, let's keep drinking."Ling Yao moved closer to Tang Ruochu with wine again. At this time, a cold tone rang out beside his ears. "Ah Yao, did your old habits return again?"When Ling Yao heard that, his heartbeat quickened in panic. He immediately turned to the man talking and smiled flatteringly. "Brother, I am too happy, so I lost control."Under his sharp gaze, he became softer and softer. In the end, he returned back to his seat and sat down.Seeing that, Shen Mu smiled and spoke up for Ling Yao. "Shijin, it's all right for Sister-in-law to drink a bit more. She can just sleep here tonight."Lu
Actually, Tang Ruochu wasn't very drunk. After drinking the honey water that Lu Shijin had ordered for her, she sobered up.She examined her room and realized that only one light was shining on the wall. Even though it was dim, she could still tell that the room was luxuriously decorated in an American style.She was alerted by the sound of water flowing and turned toward it.The bathroom was separated by translucent glass. Even though the room was dimly lit, the light from within the bathroom made her clearly see Shijin's tall and slender figure through the ground glass.Even though they had been married for a long time and were very intimate with each other, she withdrew her gaze from him and walked over to the French windows.She could see half of the Jing City through those French windows. The numerous lights that shone on the city were beautiful at night, showcasing the luxurious nature of Jing City.Lifting her hand, she placed it gently on the ice-cold glass, her eyes full
"Anyi, she is..." Xiaoxiao had an answer inside her heart but she still asked Song Anyi.This time, Song Anyi replied, "Mofei's fiancee.""Indeed!" Xiaoxiao stared directly at the girl as her lips curled into a smile of mockery. "Do you think she is here to announce her ownership of your man?""Should be the case."Song Anyi walked over and stopped in front of Xu Wenjing, asking with a calm tone, "Miss Xu, what do you have for me since you especially came to find me?"Xu Wenjing glanced at Xiaoxiao, who was behind Song Anyi, before saying, "I wish to discuss Mofei with you.""I believe that Mofei's attitude had been clear enough. There is no need for us to discuss anything." Song Anyi didn't want to have anything to do with her.Xu Wenjing's pupils turned dark as she asked again, "Miss Song, is there really no need to discuss this?""Indeed not." Ying Xiaoxiao responded on her behalf.Xu Wenjing lifted her eyes to look at her with frustration. "Who are you? Why are you so ru
From one side, Ying Xiaoxiao raged first before Song Anyi showed her emotions. She sniggered when she saw the amount of money written on it. "The Shen family is so generous for wanting to buy their relationship for merely a million dollars."In front of Xu Wenjing, she tore the cheque apart."What are you doing?" Xu Wenjing called out.Ying Xiaoxiao threw the torn cheque in Xu Wenjing's face. "Go back and tell the Shen family that being rich means nothing! Let me tell you, the Shen family and you can never separate Anyi and Mofei.""You!" Xu Wenjing stared at her with anger, her rage jumping out of her eyes as if she was going to tear Xiaoxiao apart."Me? What about me?" Ying Xiaoxiao smirked as she became harsher with her words. "Do you think Mofei will marry you just because you had a marriage contract with him? Don't be stupid! He doesn't love you! He loves my good sister Anyi! Please, give up, or you will become even more embarrassed."After poking at Xu Wenjing's sore spot a
"Grandpa Shen is someone who values relationships. What he promised will definitely be fulfilled. Hence, I don't think he did anything wrong."Hearing that, Ying Xiaoxiao became unhappy. "Song Anyi, he used his money to insult you. Why are you still speaking for him?""Actually..." Song Anyi thought for a while. "I believe that Xu Wenjing's actions might not have been instructed by Grandpa Shen.""Not instructed by him? Do you mean that the woman acted on her own?"Song Anyi spread her hands. "Possibly."Such an uncertain answer made Ying Xiaoxiao roll her eyes. "Song Anyi, please don't be so naive next time. Regardless of whether it was the woman's idea or Old Man Shen's idea, you must remember that you have not been accepted by the Shen family."Xiaoxiao wasn't wrong. She had indeed not been accepted by the Shen family and nobody knew what would happen in the future.Xu Wenjing warned her that if she didn't take the cheque and leave Mofei, something would happen to her parents
"So, y'all tore the cheque?" Lu Shengyao placed his mug back on the table as he stared at Ying Xiaoxiao opposite him with astonishment.Ying Xiaoxiao nodded. "Of course. Why would I keep it?"Lu Shengyao touched his nose. "What a pity. That's a million dollars.""Pity?"Ying Xiaoxiao raised her brows and asked, "Lu Shengyao, why is it pitiful to lose those one million dollars?""Since she is willing to give money to you, you shouldn't reject it. How can we reject free money?" Lu Shengyao believed that taking the cheque wouldn't mean leaving Mofei. After all, how could anyone reject such a huge sum of money?"Lu Shengyao!" Ying Xiaoxiao threw the bolster at him and complained, "Anyi is a woman of principles."Lu Shengyao hugged the bolster easily and smiled. "I am only joking. There is no need to be agitated."Ying Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and squinted her eyes. "Lu Shengyao, if my dad asked you to leave me with a million dollars, you wouldn't give in to the temptation, right
