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

Fu Lu slowly opened his lips, his voice deep and magnetic: "Did you go see it?"

Song Zhi nodded slightly and replied, "I've seen it."

Fu Lu narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to ask, "Do you think it's suitable?"

Song Zhi nodded: "Yes, but I feel that the child is at a disadvantage."

Fu Lu waved his hand dismissively, a faint smile playing on his lips: "What loss has he suffered? He's not short of money."

Song Zhi bit her lower lip, nodded thoughtfully, and replied softly, "Oh."

Fu Lu suddenly said, "I saw your father today, and I'll go with you to take another look at that house. Tell Xu Ning to come over."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi's heart tightened, and her face instantly showed anxiety. She hurriedly exclaimed, "Ah, you want to come with me to see it?"

Upon seeing this, Fu Lu's face instantly darkened. He glared at Song Zhi with obvious displeasure and demanded, "What? You don't want me to go?"

Feeling a little guilty under Fu Lu's sharp gaze, Song Zhi involuntarily shrank back and muttered softly, "No, I've already seen it all, there's no need to look at it again."

Fu Lu snorted coldly and said firmly, "I said I'll look, so I'll look. Why are you making so many questions? Do you not want to take responsibility for me?"

Song Zhi was speechless for a moment. Faced with Fu Lu's unreasonable attitude, she could only sigh helplessly and mutter to herself.

...Well, what a childish brat, he's practically impossible to communicate with.

……

After Fu Lu dropped the person off at the hospital entrance, he did not go inside with Song Zhi.

It wasn't until noon that the old lady came in with a thermos to relieve Song Zhi, and only then did she leave the hospital.

Standing at the bus stop, Song Zhi pondered Fu Lu's words, then thoughtfully took out her phone from her bag and skillfully dialed Xu Ning's number.

A pleasant ringtone sounded, but there was no response from the other end of the phone for a long time.

Song Zhi waited patiently, wondering if Xu Ning was busy.

Just as she was about to hang up, the call was answered, but the environment on Xu Ning's end sounded unusually noisy.

"Hello......"

Song Zhi instinctively put the phone to her ear and raised her voice slightly as she said, "Xiao Ning, it's me, Song Zhi."

Xu Ning's tone revealed a hint of curiosity: "Oh! It's your aunt. What can I do for you?"

Song Zhi took a deep breath and then quickly said, "Are you free this afternoon? I'd like to schedule a time to look at houses again."

Hearing this, Xu Ning became visibly excited, as if the surrounding noise had been drowned out: "Wow, Auntie, have you already discussed it with your family?"

“Yes, they also said they would like to see the house in person, so they were wondering if you would be available this afternoon?” Song Zhi explained.

"Convenient, so convenient! I'll be right there," Xu Ning replied without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi quickly interjected, "Hey, don't rush, there's really no need to be in such a hurry..."

However, before she could finish speaking, the phone went dead.

Xu Ning actually hung up the phone so decisively.

Song Zhi stared at the phone screen, now closed after the call, shook her head helplessly, and sighed softly, "His personality is just like Wei Yinuo's; he's always so impulsive and decisive."

I originally planned to schedule a time first, then call Lawyer Fu and go there, but I didn't expect Xu Ning to be so proactive.

Fortunately, it wasn't too far from Financial Street, so she took advantage of the good weather and walked there directly.

When I arrived downstairs in the apartment complex, I saw Xu Ning's sports car parked in the parking space below.

She hadn't expected Xu Ning to have already arrived.

Song Zhi took the elevator straight upstairs, and before she even entered the door, she heard Wei Yinuo's loud voice: "Ah Ning, this house is rented to my aunt, so we can all come over for meals, hehe..."

Xu Ning looked at Wei Yinuo with a face full of doting: "Yinuo, I'm a good cook too, you can come over to my place for a meal."

Wei Yinuo knew that Xu Ning had an apartment near the school, but she had never been there.

She pouted and said, "It's so boring with just the two of us." Then, as if remembering something, she added, "By the way, has Fu Yao contacted you?"

Xu Ning looked disgusted: "Who would contact her?"

Wei Yinuo was somewhat surprised: "Aren't you friends?"

Xu Ning muttered to herself, "If it weren't for you, who would want to be friends with her?"

Although she spoke very softly, Wei Yinuo still heard it.

She was somewhat surprised: "Why only because of me? What does it have to do with me?"

Without even thinking, Xu Ning said, "I only associate with her because she's your friend."

Wei Yinuo was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Wasn't she your friend from the beginning?"

Xu Ning paused, looking completely bewildered, then suddenly understood.

He said angrily, "Damn it, Yinuo, we've all been tricked."

Wei Yinuo looked completely bewildered: "Huh?"

Xu Ning explained, "She told me she knew you and that you were on good terms with her, which is why I started associating with her."

Now, even the naive Wei Yinuo understood.

It turns out Fu Yao was deceiving both sides.

I don't know what benefit I get from lying to them like this.

She was just about to speak when she saw Song Zhi walk in.

Wei Yinuo's eyes lit up immediately, and she limped toward Song Zhi, saying, "Auntie, you're here."

Seeing her limping, Song Zhi couldn't help but feel worried: "Your leg isn't healed yet, what are you doing running out here?"

Wei Yinuo chuckled and said, "I'm so bored at home all by myself. I'm always with that old man, my grandfather."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi was both amused and exasperated.

Xu Ning quickly stepped forward and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I didn't let Yinuo walk."

Looking at Xu Ning, Song Zhi couldn't help but think of what he had said on the phone earlier.

She glanced at Xu Ning, then at Wei Yinuo, and quickly guessed what was going on.

"You have three or four months until the exam, so focus on the exam and don't let your mind wander to other things."

Wei Yinuo still looked innocent: "No, I'm serious now."

Xu Ning also raised her hand and assured Song Zhi, "Auntie, don't worry, Yinuo and I are super serious right now."

Song Zhi smiled with satisfaction: "That's good."

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Zhi's cell phone rang.

She quickly took out her phone to check.

It was Fu Lu calling.

Song Zhi answered the phone: "Hello, have you arrived yet?"

Just as he finished speaking, Fu Lu's voice came from the doorway: "Is it 1902?"

Song Zhi turned her head and saw Fu Lu standing at the door.

She smiled and waved to Fu Lu: "Ninth Brother, come in."

Fu Lu walked in and his face darkened when he saw Wei Yinuo: "Why are you everywhere?"

Wei Yinuo rubbed her nose guiltily and said, "Uncle."

Seeing this, Xu Ning nervously followed Wei Yinuo's lead and said, "Hello, Uncle."

Fu Lu frowned, looked at Xu Ning, and asked with a half-smile, "What did you call me?"
