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

However, to his great embarrassment, the restaurant manager seemed completely oblivious to his presence, not even glancing at him before walking right past him.

Han Chengyuan's smile froze on his face. He stood there blankly, his displeasure growing stronger.

You're all ignoring me, aren't you!

He cursed angrily, "That's fucking damn good!"

The more Han Chengyuan thought about it, the angrier he became. He raised his foot and kicked the trash can next to him hard.

With a loud "bang," the trash can was kicked far away, and the booming sound echoed throughout the entire hall.

The guests dining in the hall were startled by the sudden sound and stopped what they were doing, turning their attention to Han Chengyuan.

Han Chengyuan was angry, but he also knew that the people dining in this restaurant were all rich and powerful, and he didn't want to lose face in front of them.

He coughed twice and then awkwardly strode out of the restaurant.

After Xiao Wan left the restaurant, she saw that Song Zhi was still there, so she quickly chased after her.

“Childish.”

Xiao Wan called out to Song Zhi, who was about to get into the car.

Song Zhi turned to look at Xiao Wan: "What's wrong?"

She said somewhat embarrassedly, "Zhizhi, I'm so sorry about today. I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

Song Zhi smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing, don't worry about it. But you really should go and have your fortune told soon."

Xiao Wan nodded a little shyly: "Yes, I'll go tomorrow. Thank you so much, boyfriend, for today."

"You're welcome. We're heading back now. Do you need a ride?"

Xiao Wan laughed and joked, "I won't be a third wheel. Go ahead, and be careful on the road."

As soon as he finished speaking, the restaurant manager stepped forward with a smile: "President Fu."

Fu Lu sat in the car, looking at the man in front of him, and said calmly, "What is it?"

"I heard you were coming to dine here today, so I came out to say hello."

Fu Lu nodded without saying anything.

The restaurant manager didn't waste any time and exchanged a few pleasantries with Fu Lu.

The two watched Fu Lu's car leave.

Xiao Wan was about to say a few words to the restaurant manager when she saw Han Chengyuan come out. She quickly walked to the side of the road, hailed a taxi, and went home, fearing that Han Chengyuan would catch up with her.

Han Chengyuan didn't expect to see the restaurant manager and Fu Lu bowing and scraping as he came out.

He began to have some doubts about Fu Lu's identity.

If you want to know the answer, you can only ask Xiao Wan.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Wan turned and ran away as soon as she saw him come out.

Han Chengyuan found it somewhat amusing.

This tactic of feigning indifference has gone too far.

He calmly took out his phone and dialed Xiao Wan's number.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.

Han Chengyuan quickly said, "Didn't I say I'd take you home? Why did you leave first?"

Xiao Wan's speechless voice came from the phone: "Mr. Han, I've said it before, we're not suitable for each other, there's no need to contact each other anymore. I'll explain things to my brother when I get back, that's all."

As he spoke, he prepared to hang up the phone.

Upon hearing this, Han Chengyuan quickly said, "Wait a moment."

"Any thing else?"

"Do you know who that Lawyer Fu is?"

Xiao Wan chuckled and said sarcastically without any politeness, "Didn't you say you were very familiar with the CEO of the Fu Group? Were you like brothers? He's CEO Fu Lu, are you still familiar with him?"

Han Chengyuan paused in his breath upon hearing Xiao Wan's words.

So, was Fu Lu just playing with him by not exposing his lie when he knew he was lying to him?

The thought of himself looking like a clown in front of them made Han Chengyuan's face darken even more.

……

On the way back, Song Zhi looked at the scenery outside the car window and suddenly realized that this road was not leading to her rented room, but to where Fu Lu lived.

She turned her head somewhat awkwardly and said to Fu Lu, who was driving, "Ninth Brother, it seems you've taken the wrong road."

Fu Lu remained expressionless, continuing to focus on driving, and simply replied, "I didn't go the wrong way."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi immediately became anxious and quickly explained, "But this really isn't the way to my rented apartment. My rented apartment is in another direction."

Fu Lu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, and he said, "I know, you don't need to go back there anymore."

Song Zhi was stunned, looking puzzled: "Huh, why?"

"I've already cancelled your lease on that place, and all your belongings have been moved here."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi stared at Fu Lu with wide eyes in surprise and asked, "Huh? When did you move? How come I didn't know?"

Fu Lu replied casually, "It was this morning."

Song Zhi complained angrily, "How could you do this? You made the decision without even telling me."

Fu Lu's smile deepened. He turned his head to look at Song Zhi and teased, "Isn't that what I'm saying to you right now?"

Song Zhi was speechless, stifled by his words. She sat sullenly in her seat, still feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Fu Lu chuckled softly and said, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

Song Zhi lowered her head and muttered softly, "Even if we're moving, we can't possibly move to your house."

Although her voice was very soft, Fu Lu, who was sitting next to her, still heard her words.

Fu Lu smiled slightly, reached out and gently pinched her cheek, and said softly, "If you don't move to my place, where else can you move to?"

Song Zhi's face twitched slightly when Fu Lu pinched it. She glared at Fu Lu and muttered, "Didn't I rent Xu Ning's apartment near the International Center? If anyone's moving, it should be there."

Fu Lu raised an eyebrow: "What, you're married now and you still want to play the separation game with me?"

Upon hearing the word "marriage," Song Zhi's cheeks instantly flushed as if they had been roasted by fire.

She explained somewhat flusteredly, "We're not married! We're not married at all."

Looking at Song Zhi's shy appearance, Fu Lu was in a good mood. He smiled and said, "Your father and grandmother have already agreed. All that's left is to get the marriage certificate. We'll go get it tomorrow."

Song Zhi shook her head vigorously, saying hurriedly, "No, no, I have to go to work tomorrow."

Fu Lu frowned slightly and said with some displeasure, "Going back to work so soon? You've already taken such a long leave, I don't know if your company will still hire you."

Song Zhi sighed helplessly and said, "I have no choice. I've already taken so much leave. If I don't go back to work soon, I'm afraid I'll really be fired by the company."

"If your company won't hire you, then come and be my assistant."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi quickly waved her hand and refused, saying, "No, no, I still think I'm doing quite well at my current company. I don't want to be your assistant."

Fu Lu felt somewhat helpless seeing her strong reaction.

But in the end, he didn't persist.

"Alright then, I'll take you to the company tomorrow. As for the date for getting the marriage certificate, we'll discuss it later."

Song Zhi nodded, without saying anything more.

However, I still have some worries.

I haven't even been officially hired yet, and I've already taken such a long leave of absence. I'll probably get fired by the company.

So what if I get fired? I can just find another job. At least I won't have to deal with that madman Pei Jinnian.
