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

Song Zhi was somewhat surprised to see Zhou Fu standing at the door.

Wei Yinuo never expected to see Zhou Fu here.

She and Zhou Fu used to have a very good relationship, and she hoped that Zhou Fu could marry her uncle and become her aunt.

However, after what happened last time, Wei Yinuo felt that Song Zhi was more suitable for her uncle.

Wei Yinuo smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Aunt Zhou Fu, what a coincidence, you're eating here too."

Zhou Fu smiled and nodded: "Yes, I'm with a friend. When I saw you just now, I wasn't sure, so I came over to check. I didn't expect it to really be you guys."

Zhou Yan looked at her expressionlessly: "Now that you've seen it all, aren't you leaving?"

Zhou Fu's expression froze for a moment, then her gaze fell on Zhou Yan, and she said with a smile, "Brother, did you bring your girlfriend to dinner?"

Zhou Yan said impatiently, "Stop pretending to be a green tea b*tch. Didn't you already investigate who she is?"

Zhou Fu scoffed, feeling awkward, and looked at Wei Yinuo: "Yinuo, when are you on vacation?"

From the moment she entered until now, Zhou Fu hadn't glanced at Song Zhi once, clearly pretending not to know her.

Wei Yinuo smiled somewhat awkwardly: "School starts next Monday."

"Then you'll be able to come to my wedding with your uncle, right?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo looked shocked: "What? You're marrying my uncle?"

Seeing Wei Yinuo's surprised expression, Zhou Fu simply smiled and said, "Why are you so surprised? Didn't you used to be eager for me to marry your uncle as soon as possible?"

Before Wei Yinuo could say anything more, Zhou Yan spoke up first: "Wedding? Don't you have any idea why we should get married?"

Zhou Fu's expression froze; she hadn't expected Zhou Yan to undermine her in front of Song Zhi.

Actually, she spotted Song Zhi immediately when the three of them came in.

The reason I mentioned confirming earlier was simply to find an excuse to tell Song Zhi about her relationship with Fu Lu.

She never expected Zhou Yan to be so disrespectful to her.

But so what?

Why not just turn this fake situation into a real one?

Thinking of this, Zhou Fu stopped being angry.

She smiled and said, "We'll find out then, won't we? I won't disturb your meal any longer; my friend is waiting for me."

After saying that, he walked out of the private room.

As soon as Zhou Fu left, Wei Yinuo couldn't wait to ask, "Auntie, did you find out about this, which is why you're angry with my uncle?"

Song Zhi looked at Wei Yi Nu: "You knew about this too?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo quickly waved her hand in denial: "I don't know, I just found out."

As she spoke, she looked at Zhou Yan and asked anxiously, "Uncle, what happened?"

Zhou Yan gave a brief explanation.

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi's brow twitched slightly, accurately grasping the three words that concerned her.

A sham marriage.

Zhou Yan nodded: "The company has run into some financial problems recently. The Zhou family and the Fu family are old friends, and they offered to help the Fu family, but there's a condition: a marriage alliance..."

Song Zhi's hands, hanging by her sides, tightened, and she murmured, "A marriage alliance?"

Zhou Yan quickly explained, "Ninth Brother didn't agree, so he and Zhou Fu agreed to a fake marriage later..."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi's hands unconsciously tightened, but she maintained her composure and said to Zhou Yan, "Oh, is that so?"

Zhou Yan was surprised by Song Zhi's composure and immediately became anxious and angry.

He spoke again: "Little sister, my ninth brother is absolutely loyal to you. He wants to marry you, not my cousin..."

Song Zhi gave a soft "hmm".

What happened to his company?

Zhou Yan blurted out instinctively, "It's Wei Min..."

At this point, he realized that Wei Yinuo was also there, so he simply shut up.

When Wei Yinuo heard Zhou Yan mention her father, she asked curiously, "Uncle, what happened to my father?"

Zhou Yan chuckled and waved his hand, "It's nothing, it's nothing. Niece, go and call a waiter over."

Wei Yinuo pouted: "Why should I go? They'll be here in a bit, won't they?"

Song Zhi knew that Zhou Yan wanted to get rid of her, so she followed Zhou Yan's words and said to Wei Yinuo, "Yinuo, my phone is dead. Could you go and borrow a power bank for me?"

"Ok."

Song Zhi smiled and thanked her, "Yinuo, thank you."

Wei Yinuo shook her head: "You're welcome."

As soon as the person left, Song Zhi eagerly asked, "What happened?"

Zhou Yan probed, "You know about Wei Min and Fu Ya's affair, right?"

Song Zhi nodded.

Seeing this, Zhou Yan slowly spoke.

It turns out that over the years, Wei Min had been using her marriage to Fu Ya to embezzle a lot of Fu's funds, and even opened several investment companies under the name of Fu's branch companies.

The Fu family is currently facing a cash flow shortage, and Fu Lu has no choice but to seek help from the Zhou family.

No wonder Lawyer Fu has been so busy lately.

Song Zhi always thought that he was just busy having dinner and watching movies with Zhou Fu.

It turns out it really was because of company matters.

Thinking about the cold violence she had inflicted on Fu Lu during this period, Song Zhi felt a little guilty.

"Little sister, don't be angry with Ninth Brother. He's been so anxious and stressed lately that he hasn't been thinking about your feelings."

Song Zhi snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Fu Lu: "If I didn't know it was a fake marriage, would Fu Lu have been honest with me?"

Zhou Yan paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "Well, I can't really explain it, but I can guarantee that Ninth Brother won't do anything to hurt you."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi looked up at Zhou Yan: "But isn't it hurtful that he kept it from me? I saw them choosing wedding rings and watching a movie with my own eyes. Even if it was fake, these things really happened, didn't they?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Fu Lu's voice came from the doorway: "It's a misunderstanding. I didn't go to the movies with her, much less pick out a wedding ring with her."

Song Zhi paused, looked up, and her cheeks flushed involuntarily when she saw Fu Lu.

Didn't Attorney Fu go to the company?

How would it appear here?

And I happened to overhear what she said.

How embarrassing.

Song Zhi's expression was somewhat unnatural.

In contrast, Fu Lu remained calm.

He walked in, stood in front of Song Zhi, and spoke again: "I didn't watch a movie with her."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi subconsciously asked, "What about the ring? I saw you two coming out of the CBD with my own eyes. You bought her a wedding ring."

"How could it possibly have been bought for her?"

As Fu Lu spoke, a noticeable chill crept into his eyes, and he continued, "Didn't you see the gift box bag on the table that day?"

Song Zhi was stunned, not reacting for a moment: "What gift box/bag? Which day?"

"It was that time you were drunk..." Before he could finish speaking, Song Zhi suddenly stood up, covered his mouth with her hand, and warned him with flushed cheeks: "Shut up, don't say it."

Fu Lu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the girl in front of him with a hint of amusement.

He didn't struggle and just let Song Zhi cover his mouth.
