Looking at the person in front of her who was unusually obsessed with the gold bracelet, Song Zhi couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"Easy to buy."

Upon hearing Song Zhi's reply, Fu Lu's previous impatience was instantly replaced by a faint smile. He said happily, "I just picked out several, and I'll pack them all up and take them home later."

Song Zhi smiled and nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Just as Fu Lu was happily chatting with his child, a discordant voice suddenly broke in.

"Hey bro, where are you working?" Han Chengyuan's voice came again.

Fu Lu was clearly annoyed by Han Chengyuan's interruption; he frowned slightly and didn't want to pay him any attention.

However, Song Zhi politely replied, "The Fu family."

"Ah, the Fu Group, I know it!"

Han Chengyuan said confidently, "I'm an old acquaintance of the CEO of the Fu Group, and we have a very good relationship."

At this point, Han Chengyuan paused for a moment, then continued to say to Fu Lu, "By the way, which department do you work in at the Fu Group? I'll talk to him later and ask him to give you a raise or a promotion."

Fu Lu raised an eyebrow: "A promotion and a raise?"

"Of course, it's no trouble at all if I say so."

Hearing Han Chengyuan's words, Xiao Wan, who was standing to the side, felt so embarrassed that she curled her toes.

She thought to herself: Is this person out of their mind? How dare he brag so shamelessly in front of the person in question? Isn't he just asking to embarrass himself?

To ease the awkward atmosphere, Xiao Wan quickly chuckled twice and interjected, "Alright, alright, let's not talk about work for now. It's rare for us all to get together, let's eat!"

However, Han Chengyuan seemed completely oblivious to Xiao Wan's good intentions. Instead of stopping, he became even more smug and continued speaking to himself:

"I'm serious. Since we've met, it's fate. If you ever need any help in the future, just let me know, and I'll definitely do my best to help you."

Fu Lu sat quietly to the side, listening to Han Chengyuan's words. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a half-smile. Then he asked slowly, "From what you've said, you and the CEO of Fu's Group have a very good relationship."

Upon hearing this, Han Chengyuan became even more smug. He patted his chest and said, "Of course, we're good brothers."

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Chengyuan seemed to suddenly remember something. He slapped his forehead and turned to Fu Lu, saying:

"Oh dear, look at my memory! I was so busy chatting with you that I didn't even know your name."

Fu Lu said calmly, "My surname is Fu, and my given name is Lu."

Han Chengyuan nodded, muttering to himself, "Fu Lu."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to remember something, looked at Fu Lu with a surprised expression, and said, "You also have the surname Fu? What a coincidence?"

Fu Lu raised an eyebrow and nodded slowly without saying a word.

Seeing this, Han Chengyuan waved his hand dismissively and said heartily, "It's nothing, it's nothing. Since we're so destined to meet, we're brothers now. I'll talk to my brother about it later and ask him to give you a promotion!"

Fu Lu's lips curled up again. "You're so familiar with our boss, how come I've never seen you at the company?"

Han Chengyuan was taken aback for a moment, a hint of guilt flashing in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

He waved his hand and said smugly, "You're just a lowly employee, you'd never see me. We've collaborated on several big projects before."

Upon hearing this, Fu Lu leaned back slightly, languidly resting his head on the back of his chair, and casually replied, "Oh."

Seeing Fu Lu's nonchalant attitude, Han Chengyuan couldn't help but feel uneasy.

He thought to himself: Why is this not what I imagined? Logically speaking, shouldn't he be fawning over me? Could it be that he doesn't believe what I say?

Thinking of this, Han Chengyuan felt a surge of displeasure and raised his voice, asking, "What? You don't believe me?"

Fu Lu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. He ignored Han Chengyuan and instead leaned close to Song Zhi's ear, whispering, "I can't be bothered to talk to an idiot."

Song Zhi gave Fu Lu a reproachful look and said sweetly, "Alright, stop causing trouble. Let's finish our meal and go home."

However, seeing that Fu Lu was completely ignoring him, Han Chengyuan's dissatisfaction grew stronger.

He muttered to himself, "You really don't know what's good for you. If it weren't for the fact that you're the boyfriend of my future wife's friend, I wouldn't bother to set you up like this."

Xiao Wan, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but interrupt, "You should stop now. Don't embarrass yourself here. Also, who is your girlfriend? Don't talk nonsense."

Upon hearing this, Han Chengyuan exploded like a powder keg that had been lit.

"Shameful? I only agreed to go on this blind date with you today because of your brother. Don't push your luck!"

As Han Chengyuan spoke, Xiao Wan's smile faded, and she sneered, "If it weren't for my brother's sake, do you think I would come out on a blind date with someone like you? And you're good brothers with the CEO of the Fu Group? You'd die if you didn't brag."

Han Chengyuan immediately reacted, disregarding any gentlemanly image, and roared, "Who the hell do you think you are? What right do you have to question me?"

Xiao Wan was furious, but remembering what her brother had said, she ultimately held back.

Seeing that Xiao Wan remained silent, Han Chengyuan suddenly felt emboldened. He said smugly, "If it weren't for being brothers with President Fu, would we even be able to come to Yuxiang Pavilion for dinner? Think about it, who is it for?"

Xiao Wan subconsciously looked at Fu Lu and saw him whispering to Song Zhi, ignoring Han Chengyuan, which made her feel relieved.

Han Chengyuan, that idiot, he loves to pretend, doesn't he?

Let's see how long you can keep up this act.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wan looked at Han Chengyuan with feigned surprise: "You know the owner of this restaurant?"

"Otherwise what? You need to make a reservation to eat here."

Xiao Wan gave him a thumbs up: "Awesome."

Upon seeing this, Song Zhi knew that Xiao Wan was about to cause trouble.

Sure enough, the next second, Xiao Wan said, "Since you know the owner of this restaurant, it must be a special price for family members. I'll order a few more dishes. You don't mind, do you?"

Han Chengyuan's expression froze, he gave an awkward smile, and nodded with a forced smile.

Xiao Wan picked up the menu again and began ordering.

Han Chengyuan became somewhat unsettled after hearing the name of the dish Xiao Wan mentioned.

He took a sip of water from the glass in front of him with feigned nonchalance, then asked casually.

"Does Miss Xiao usually spend so lavishly?"

Xiao Wan paused for a moment while holding the menu, then put it down and looked at Han Chengyuan with a smile.

"Not necessarily, it depends on who you're having dinner with."

Han Chengyuan raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"
