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

Song Zhi looked up and stared blankly at the familiar black sedan in front of her.

Fu Lu also arrived.

So he knew he was in jail?

Song Zhi instinctively didn't want to appear in front of Fu Lu, so she reached out to pull the car door open: "Brother Zhou Yan, let me go with my friend."

As she spoke, the front door opened.

The next second, Fu Lu got out of the car and looked in her direction.

Fu Lu was wearing the black coat that Song Zhi was familiar with, his expression was indifferent, and no emotion could be seen on his face.

After a brief eye contact with Song Zhi, his gaze fell on Song Zhi's hand on Zhou Yan's car door handle, his mind seemingly lost in thought.

"Song Zhi".

Fu Lu's voice was deep and unreadable, but Song Zhi sensed that his brow furrowed slightly when he called her name.

Song Zhi let go of his hand somewhat awkwardly and greeted Fu Lu with embarrassment.

"What a coincidence, you're at the police station too."

After saying that, Song Zhi wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

What does "what a coincidence" mean?

People clearly came because of her.

"Get in the car, I'll take you home." After saying this, Fu Lu got back into the car.

Since Fu Lu had already said that, Song Zhi didn't say anything more.

She glanced at Xiao Wan sitting in the car; perhaps because of the alcohol, Xiao Wan had fallen asleep in her seat.

Song Zhi thought to herself: "He's got a really big heart, he can even sleep here."

"Brother Zhou Yan, I'm leaving my friend in your care."

Zhou Yan smiled and waved his hand: "No trouble at all, hurry up and go, or Old Man Fu will get angry."

Song Zhi paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "How did you know I was here?"

"Ask him, don't ask me. I'm leaving."

With that, he drove off.

Song Zhi was completely bewildered.

Suddenly, a horn sounded from ahead. Song Zhi sighed silently and resignedly walked towards Fu Lu's car.

She got into the passenger seat and politely greeted the man beside her.

"sorry to bother you."

Fu Lu didn't say a word and drove off.

For a moment, Song Zhi felt that the atmosphere in the car was a bit strange.

The man remained silent, and she dared not utter a sound either.

While waiting at the traffic light, Song Zhi cautiously glanced at the person beside her out of the corner of her eye.

His expression remained somber.

Are you angry?

why?

Song Zhi was puzzled.

"Song Xiaozhi, you've got some nerve."

Fu Lu suddenly spoke, glancing at her with a half-smile.

Feeling somewhat guilty, Song Zhi hung her head and remained silent.

As Fu Lu drove, he asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Song Zhi lowered her head, her hands clenched tightly on her knees, and after a long while she finally spoke and recounted what had happened.

Fu Lu grasped the key point: "Is Qin Zheng the eldest young master of the Qin family?"

"I think so, we knew each other before."

After he finished speaking, the car fell silent again.

Song Zhi felt a little awkward and took the initiative to speak: "How...how did you know I was here?"

Fu Lu scoffed: "How do you think I'd know if I saw you being taken into a police car?"

Upon hearing this, Song Zhi's pupils contracted slightly.

"You, you came to my house looking for me?"

Fu Lu responded but did not speak.

He had overheard Song Zhi talking on the phone about going to a bar, so he was worried something might happen. He dropped his engagement and drove over, only to find that she wasn't home.

As he was leaving, he was drawn by the sound of police cars and took a look.

My child has been taken away.

Fu Lu quickly followed and inquired about the situation.

I was planning to come back tomorrow to bail her out and teach her a lesson inside, but I couldn't bear to do it, so I contacted Zhou Yan and asked him to come over.

Suddenly, a cell phone ring broke the silence between the two.

Song Zhi took out her phone and glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number.

She hesitated for a moment, then pressed the call button.

"Hey."

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, only heavy breathing.

Song Zhi frowned and was about to hang up when someone finally spoke on the other end.

“Childish.”

Upon hearing Pei Jinnian's voice, Song Zhi hung up without saying a word.

Fu Lu, who was standing to the side, glanced at it and casually asked, "Whose is it?"

Song Zhi gripped her phone tightly, instinctively not wanting Fu Lu to know.

"Wrong number."

Without making it obvious, he hung up the phone.

Ten minutes later, the vehicle came to a smooth stop downstairs in the residential area.

When Song Zhi was about to say goodbye to Fu Lu, she found that he had already gotten out of the driver's seat.

Before she could even speak, Fu Lu preemptively said, "I'll take you upstairs."

Song Zhi gave a couple of "ohs" sounds, lowered her head, and slowly walked towards the building entrance.

Fu Lu followed closely behind her at a leisurely pace until he escorted her to her doorstep.

Song Zhi pointed softly to the front door: "Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

Fu Lu raised an eyebrow, gazing at her with a half-smile: "It's so late, are you sure you want to invite me inside?"

Song Zhi smiled awkwardly: "You...you're not a bad person."

Fu Lu replied lazily, "You trust me that much?"

Song Zhi sensed the sarcasm in his words and instantly bristled. "Come if you want, don't come if you don't!"

After saying that, she opened the door and went inside on her own.

Just as she was about to close the door, a large hand suddenly reached through the crack in the door, stopping her from closing it.

Song Zhi was slightly taken aback and looked up at the man standing at the door.

"What?" she asked softly, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"Come in and have a seat."

After saying that, he squeezed into the room without hesitation.

As soon as Fu Lu entered, he displayed the demeanor of a male head of the household.

He unceremoniously took off his coat, casually tossed it onto the sofa, and then sat down leisurely.

Song Zhi glanced at him silently, said nothing, turned and went into the kitchen, took out a clean cup, and poured him a glass of warm water.

Thank you for tonight.

She said sincerely, her eyes sparkling with gratitude.

Fu Lu raised his eyebrows, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.

His gaze swept over the water glass in Song Zhi's hand, and he said with a hint of teasing, "Just a glass of water?"

Song Zhi felt a little embarrassed. She bit her lip and explained, "I just moved here and haven't had time to prepare much. Right now, we only have water."

Fu Lu's gaze fell on the dining table, where some fresh vegetables were laid out.

These were originally ingredients that Song Zhi had prepared for herself and Xiao Wan, planning to have a hot pot together, but they couldn't because of the puppy incident.

Noticing Fu Lu's gaze, Song Zhi quickly explained, "I originally wanted to have hot pot with my friends, but something happened, so..."

Fu Lu stood up, walked to the dining table and sat down, looking at the tempting vegetables, and asked, "Can I eat this?"

Before Song Zhi could answer, he had already skillfully turned on the stove and started preparing to cook.

Song Zhi's lips twitched, and she thought to herself: He's already started the fire himself, why is he still asking?

Fu Lu suddenly looked up: "Song Xiaozhi, are you cursing me in your heart again?"

Song Zhi waved her hand in denial: "No, no."

Fu Lu smiled, picked up his chopsticks and pointed at her: "Come and eat something, don't be shy."

Song Zhi: “…”

This person really has no manners whatsoever.

She stepped forward and sat down opposite Fu Lu.

The dining table is small, but it's just right for two people.

Seeing Fu Lu eating with relish, Song Zhi asked in confusion, "Didn't you eat?"

Fu Lu paused for a moment, holding his chopsticks, before saying, "I've eaten."

Song Zhi was surprised.

Even after eating, they still can't eat this much.

They're really hard to raise.

Of course, she only dared to mutter these words to herself and didn't dare to say them out loud.
