He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

Song Zhi stood aside and watched Fu Lu take the fever-reducing medicine before leaving.

Before leaving, she took out a sticky note, wrote down all the precautions for taking the medication in detail, and then stuck it in a conspicuous place on the refrigerator.

After doing all that, she gently turned her head and looked at Fu Lu sitting on the living room sofa, and said softly, "Then I'll go first. All the things to pay attention to are written on that piece of paper. Remember not to drink cold drinks, and after taking your medicine, go back to bed and rest well."

Fu Lu didn't speak, but just stared straight at Song Zhi.

Actually, when I checked the surveillance footage this morning, I saw that Zhou Fu had come to my house.

Although it was impossible to hear what the two were saying, it wasn't hard to guess from Zhou Fu's expression that Zhou Fu was definitely making things difficult for Song Zhi.

After all, Zhou Fu, being a spoiled and arrogant young lady, was unlikely to say anything kind.

Fu Lu pretended not to know and kept waiting for Song Zhi to take the initiative to talk to him, like an ordinary couple, acting coquettishly and asking questions with a childlike air about his relationship with Zhou Fu.

But a whole morning passed, and Song Zhi didn't bring it up at all, as if nothing had happened.

Fu Lu couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless, thinking that with Song Zhi's stubborn personality, it was probably impossible to continue foolishly waiting for her to take the initiative to ask.

Song Zhi looked at Fu Lu staring straight at her, somewhat puzzled: "Ninth Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"

Fu Lu placed the water glass in his hand on the coffee table in front of him and slowly asked, "Did we have guests at home this morning?"

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi's body stiffened involuntarily, and she looked at Fu Lu with some surprise.

She was surprised that Fu Lu knew; she thought he was unaware that guests had come to their home.

Song Zhi didn't intend to say much, but simply nodded slightly.

Fu Lu reached out, picked up the water glass, and fiddled with it for a while before speaking: "What did Zhou Fu want to see me about? What did she say?"

Song Zhi looked up at Fu Lu with a face full of surprise, clearly not expecting him to know that the visitor was Zhou Fu. She blurted out, "You... how did you know that the person who came was Miss Zhou?"

Fu Lu said calmly, "My sister messaged me and said she's coming over."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought that Fu Lu knew Zhou Fu was coming because he must have overheard their conversation. Fortunately, she was overthinking it.

Song Zhi gave a soft "oh".

Fu Lu continued, "What did she say?"

Song Zhi quickly shook her head and replied softly, "She didn't say anything..." As she spoke, Song Zhi's voice unconsciously grew softer and softer.

At this moment, Fu Lu frowned slightly, staring intently at Song Zhi without saying a word, as if trying to see through her eyes.

Faced with Fu Lu's scrutinizing gaze, Song Zhi felt somewhat uncomfortable, mainly because she felt a little guilty.

She instinctively avoided eye contact and stammered, "I came to see you, but then I heard you were sick, so I left."

Upon hearing this, Fu Lu raised an eyebrow and asked, "That's it? Is there nothing else?"

Song Zhi shook her head vigorously again, and replied in a low voice, "Really, there aren't any left."

Actually, she didn't want to tell Fu Lu those things, for fear of causing him unnecessary trouble and distress.

Seeing that Song Zhi remained silent, Fu Lu couldn't help but sigh softly.

He slowly put down the empty water glass in his hand, then stood up and walked straight towards Song Zhi.

Song Zhi watched helplessly as the tall, imposing man approached her step by step, a strange sense of tension rising in her heart.

She looked at him with a puzzled expression and stammered, "Ninth Brother, what are you doing?"

Fu Lu slowly extended his right hand and gently tapped Song Zhi's smooth forehead. At the same time, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he said with a half-smile, "Song Xiaozhi, didn't I tell you that I can easily see through your lies?"

After saying that, he raised an eyebrow, a hint of cunning in his eyes.

Song Zhi instinctively covered her forehead, where she had just been hit, with both hands, letting out a soft sob: "I, I didn't!"

Perhaps because she felt guilty, her voice was barely audible.

Fu Lu snorted, his face showing some dissatisfaction and doubt: "Still dare to be stubborn? Zhizhi, I know you're lying, so don't lie to me."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi quickly lowered her head and dared not utter another word.

She thought to herself, "How can this Lawyer Fu be so amazing? He can see through my lies every time."

Fu Lu raised an eyebrow and patted Song Zhi's head: "You're not allowed to lie to me anymore, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi quickly responded in a low voice, "Oh, I heard you."

Fu Lu gently ruffled her soft hair and softly comforted her, "Zhou Fu is just a business partner's daughter. I met her a few times when we were little, and we were even betrothed as children..."

Before he could finish speaking, Song Zhi subconsciously looked up at him and asked, "You two are engaged?"

Hearing Fu Lu say it with her own ears still made Song Zhi feel a little sad.

My eyes involuntarily reddened.

Seeing this, Fu Lu reached out and pinched her cheek, explaining, "It was just something my parents said casually when they were young, so don't take it seriously. I've already made it clear to both sets of parents that I have someone I like, and I will only marry the person I like in the future, so don't overthink it."

the person I like?

Are you talking about yourself?

Song Zhi blushed unconsciously. She lowered her head and muttered softly in a voice only she could hear, "I wasn't thinking anything. I'm going back. I'm worried about leaving Grandma alone at home."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Lu suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around Song Zhi's waist, then leaned in and gently kissed her cheek.

He said softly, "Zhizhi, I really don't want you to go back so soon. How about we bring Grandma here? That way you can stay with me all the time, okay?"

Faced with Fu Lu's intimate and passionate gesture, Song Zhi felt as if her cheeks were being burned by fire, instantly turning bright red and burning hot.

She didn't even dare to look up at Fu Lu, keeping her eyes lowered, so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands.

Seeing this, Fu Lu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a doting smile.

He gently bit Song Zhi's earlobe, deliberately lowering his voice and saying with a hint of ambiguity, "Little girl, your brother is talking to you, why aren't you paying attention to me?"

Hearing Fu Lu's provocative words, Song Zhi became even more shy, her face turning red all the way to her ears.

She shook her head frantically, but couldn't utter a single word.

Seeing Song Zhi's shy and adorable appearance, Fu Lu couldn't help but chuckle: "Haha, alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Let's go, I'll take you home."

After saying that, he made a move to pull Song Zhi out.
