Send you to the crematorium! Divorce and remarry the heir of a wealthy family

Mi Yan said bluntly, "I heard Bai Wantang is quite pretty. Maybe Mr. Lu likes her looks. After all, most men are obsessed with appearance. Really..."

At this moment, a cold voice interrupted the conversation: "I didn't know that I could be moved by someone's appearance."

Yu Xiao immediately came to her senses and froze. Mi Yan, still not realizing the seriousness of the situation, kept muttering to herself, "Hey, hey, you're not Master Lu, who do you care about? Am I wrong? Most men like pretty girls. My Xiaoxiao is so beautiful, that's why Master Lu and Uncle Mo treat her so well... Woo..."

Yu Xiao hurriedly covered Mi Yan's mouth and gave Lu Zhiyao an awkward smile, "I'm sorry, Master Lu. She's too drunk. Please don't take it to heart."

Lu Zhiyao approached with four bodyguards and sat down across from Yu Xiao. "How about another glass of wine? Give me one too."

Before Yu Xiao could answer, Mi Yan suddenly sat up straight and shouted, "Waiter! Give me the most expensive wine."

Yu Xiao quickly supported Mi Yan and apologized to Lu Zhiyao with a mixture of anger and amusement, "Master Lu, please don't mind."

Mi Yan blinked, the figure in front of her was blurry and she couldn't tell who it was.

"Master Lu? Is Master Lu here?"

She asked dazedly, "Master Lu, do you like our Xiaoxiao? What's going on with Bai Wantang? Xiaoxiao, you can't be fooled by Master Lu."

Lu Zhiyao moved his fingers, his eyes deep, "Xiaoxiao, what Mi Yan said, is this what you want to ask?"

Yu Xiao pretended to be confused, "Ah? Master Lu, what are you talking about? Yanyan is drunk, how can you take her words seriously?"

Mi Yan's expression was clear, and there was no sign of drunkenness in her eyes. He had the opportunity to stop her just now, but now he let her say these words.

The waiter brought a glass of wine and placed it in front of Lu Zhiyao. He picked it up, holding the glass with his slender fingers and lowering his head slightly, adding a bit of elusiveness to his demeanor.

"Bai Wantang, do you know this person?"

His conversation suddenly changed direction and he asked a question that had nothing to do with what he had been discussing before.

"I don't know him, but Yanyan does. She just mentioned him."

Yu Xiao replied nonchalantly, "Are Master Lu and Bai Wantang very familiar with each other? I heard you even had dinner together."

There was a hint of curiosity in his tone, as if he wanted to know more details.

Lu Zhiyao lowered his head and took a sip of wine. It was a very elegant movement, revealing a subtle aristocratic air.

"Unfamiliar."

He spoke very concisely and clearly, giving the impression that he was reluctant to talk much.

The corners of Yu Xiao's mouth curled up slightly. If she hadn't seen the relevant photos with her own eyes, she might really have been deceived by Lu Ji's focused answer.

Mi Yan, on the other hand, smiled and put forward her own opinion: "Not familiar? If two people have never even eaten together, they are not familiar with each other, then what about those partners who are just working together on the surface? Not to mention whether they have ever had a so-called sweet date!"

Although her mind was not very clear at the moment, it did not prevent her from immediately refuting this statement, without noticing that the person she was talking to was the so-called Mr. Lu.

Lu Zhiyao raised his eyes and looked at the woman sitting next to him. Yu Xiao was looking at him calmly, waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.

He chuckled, giving a very charming smile.

"I don't know where Miss Mi got the news that Bai Wantang and I had dinner together. In fact, I only had a few words with her face to face that night, and the entire conversation lasted no more than two minutes."

Hearing this, Mi Yan muttered softly, "How is that fundamentally different from going to a specific place and claiming to be 'just looking'?"

This made Yu Xiao on the side burst out laughing. He thought Mi Yan was so cute that she could say such innocent words to make people laugh.

Lu Zhiyao put down the wine glass in his hand. After noticing the hidden smile in Yu Xiao's eyes, he could only shake his head and explain helplessly: "Ms. Mi, this is just a misunderstanding."

For others, there might not be a chance to talk to him directly like this; but for today's incident, such a scene is really rare and interesting.

However, whenever the topic returned to that name—Bai Wantang—his tone would inevitably become slightly hesitant. "Do you...do you particularly care about this?"

The scene of his private meeting with Bai Wantang emerged in his mind, making his face turn a little gloomy.

"I have no impression of this woman. Why would I be interested in her or pay attention to her?"

Yu Xiao's eyes were clear and honest as he looked directly at him and asked such a seemingly simple yet extremely complicated question.

He nodded slightly, acknowledging the fact that he did know the name.

"Ah."

The entire conversation was responded to with just this one word.

Yu Xiao continued to ask, "If that's the case, then why did you ask me about her just now? As one of your friends, this doesn't really matter to me."

Her attitude remained calm and friendly throughout, without any resentment or unhappiness.

The fingers holding the wine glass gradually tightened due to the irritation in his heart. At the same time, he looked up and saw Mi Yan leaning on Yu Xiao not far away, acting very childishly.

Whenever encountering a similar situation, she can always be seen following closely behind Yu Xiao, almost becoming an indispensable part of his existence.

"That's right."

After saying that, he lowered his head, his whole body emitting a faint loneliness, "I thought you also valued me to a certain extent."

Faced with this situation, Yu Xiao smiled and comforted the other person: "Of course I care about you. If not, why would you bother to inquire about Bai Wantang's background? After all, there aren't many people in this circle who can be named, and she's not one of the people I'm very familiar with."

As she spoke, she raised the cup that had been placed in front of her for a long time and toasted the man opposite her. "As for social circles, to be honest, my environment is very different from yours. I have no other choice of friends except Mi Yan and others."

During this period of time, such ordinary and common stories have been happening almost every day in the capital.

Lu Zhiyao's eyes flickered a few times, "It's actually very simple to become a member of my circle."

The answer he gave was surprising and full of unknowns.

"what?"

Yu Xiao raised her voice, obviously not understanding what the handsome man in front of her wanted to convey to her.
