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

Xiao Wan nodded lightly: "Yes."

"why?"

Faced with the boy's questioning, Xiao Wan suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

He couldn't help but scoff: "We broke up, have you forgotten?"

Chi Ye's breath hitched, and she looked at her helplessly: "Sister, I, I regret it."

Xiao Wan gave a curt "oh" and said nothing more.

Chi Ye was surprised that Xiao Wan was so indifferent; it was completely different from what he had imagined.

Undeterred, he asked, "Is this all you've got?"

Xiao Wan asked, "Tell me, what attitude should I adopt?"

Chino's expression froze, and his already slightly red eyes immediately turned even redder.

Xiao Wan suddenly looked at him with surprise and excitement, and said, "So you want to make up with me?"

Chi Ye's eyes lit up, but before he could speak, he saw Xiao Wan's expression immediately turn cold. She sneered, "Are you satisfied with your reaction just now? Do you think my attitude should have been like that?"

Chi Ye stared blankly at Xiao Wan.

Suddenly, he felt as if he didn't understand the woman in front of him at all.

It's true that he was the one who fell in love first, but when they were together, Xiao Wan showed that she loved him very much. So now that they're breaking up, Chi Ye can't accept seeing Xiao Wan's coldness towards him.

Seeing that he was stunned and didn't speak, Xiao Wan continued, "If there's nothing else, then leave."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the studio. He had only taken two steps when his wrist was suddenly grabbed.

'Wait a moment.'

Ikeno's voice came through.

Xiao Wan lowered her eyes, glanced at the hand gripping her wrist, and then gently pulled away.

She looked at Ikeno quietly without saying a word.

Ikeno seemed a little lost, and his speech was halting and incoherent.

"Sister, let's make up. I really can't get used to being apart from you."

Xiao Wan scoffed: "We've only been together a short time, and you're already already feeling uncomfortable?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Ye felt somewhat embarrassed. He opened his mouth to explain, but Xiao Wan didn't give him any chance to do so.

She said, "Chino, we've already broken up. I hate going back to an ex, so don't waste your time on me."

Ikeno shook his head.

Xiao Wan reached out and patted his shoulder, saying earnestly, "Let's go, don't make me say those hurtful things."

"No, that day I... I drank too much. I really like you."

Xiao Wan smiled, clearly not believing it.

She opened her mouth as if to say something, but the elevator doors opened, and several people in work uniforms came out carrying flower baskets.

Xiao Wan subconsciously stepped aside, watching as the leader approached her and asked, "Are you Miss Song?"

Xiao Wan was a little confused, but she still nodded.

"Where would you like to place the flower basket that Mr. Fu ordered?"

Xiao Wan was somewhat surprised, but still arranged for someone to place the flower basket at the entrance of the studio.

When Song Zhi came out after hearing the commotion, the corridor was already filled with more than a dozen flower baskets.

"Who sent it?"

Xiao Wan joked, "Who else could it be? Your Mr. Fu, of course."

Song Zhi was somewhat surprised.

She took out her phone but didn't see the message Fu Lu had sent her.

So, are they going to order flower baskets?

A faint smile curved her lips.

Just as I picked up my phone to call Fu Lu, Fu Lu called me first.

Song Zhi subconsciously pressed the call button.

Before she could even speak, Fu Lu's teasing voice came from the other end of the phone: "Song Xiaozhi, you answered so quickly, were you waiting for my call?"

Song Zhi paused, her cheeks flushing almost imperceptibly. She walked to the side and whispered her protest, "No."

Fu Lu clicked his tongue twice but didn't say anything.

Song Zhi felt a little embarrassed, but seeing the corridor full of flower baskets, she still took the initiative to speak: "Why did you send so many flower baskets?"

Fu Lu said lazily, "Your studio is opening?"

Song Zhi said softly, "Thank you."

"How about we have dinner together tonight? If you want to thank me?"

Fu Lu leaned back in his chair in front of his desk and spoke casually.

As soon as he finished speaking, the office door was pushed open from the outside, and Zhou Yan walked in with two men.

Seeing that Fu Lu was on the phone, he sat down on the sofa next to him and started chatting.

He addressed the man with the chestnut-shaped haircut: "I told you, Fu Lao Jiu has been busy with his career lately, but you wouldn't listen and insisted on coming along."

As she spoke, she glanced up at Fu Lu.

Fu Lu gave him a look and continued talking to Song Zhi on the phone.

Another man laughed and said, "It seems Ninth Brother has changed his ways. He's been back in the country for so long, and he hasn't contacted us brothers anymore."

Zhou Yan chimed in, "Tch, do you think everyone is like you, Young Master Gu, so idle and lazy?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Fu Lu's voice came over: "Why are you all here?"

Gu Lechi smiled and looked at Fu Lu with a curious expression: "Hey Lu-ge, something's up with you, chatting with that girl?"

Fu Lu dismissed it: "Mind your own business."

Gu Lechi looked at the man with the slicked-back hair, and the two exchanged glances. Then they clicked their tongues twice: "I heard everything just now. He even sent flowers. Do your family members know that you're pursuing her so openly?"

Fu Lu stood up, strode over, and casually sat down in the empty seat next to Zhou Yan. He reached for the cigarette case on the table, took out a cigarette, and put it in his mouth.

Seeing this, Gu Lechi quickly took out a lighter to light it for him.

Fu Lu took a drag of his cigarette before casually asking, "What does it have to do with them?"

Gu Lechi said, "I heard from my aunt that at the auction your family held last time, they introduced you to several daughters of prominent families. Could you be one of them?"

"No."

Everyone present, except Zhou Yan, looked at Fu Lu with some surprise.

Gu Lechi asked, "Who is it? Which family's daughter?"

Fu Lu lifted his eyelashes, lazily asking, "Are you checking household registrations?"

Gu Lechi choked, his gaze falling on Zhou Yan.

"Brother Yan, you're so calm, do you know something? Tell me and Han Zhou right away."

Zhou Yan glanced at Fu Lu and asked in a low voice, "Can I say that?"

Fu Lu glanced at him with disdain and said indifferently, "Speak, what do you want from me?"

Gu Lechi then remembered the purpose of his visit today, slapped his forehead, and said, "Let's get together at the banquet tonight, and don't forget the brothers!"

Without even thinking, Fu Lu refused outright: "I don't have time tonight, I already have plans with someone else."

Han Zhou, who had been silent until now, spoke up: "I heard it just now. Old Fu made an appointment with that girl to have dinner at seven o'clock on the phone."

Gu Lechi replied, "Bring them along, it's not like we can't bring family members."

Fu Lu refused: "Forget it, she's too shy."

He glanced at the time on his wrist and said casually, "I have a meeting that's about to start. You can do as you please."

The two watched as Fu Lu walked out of the office, completely bewildered.

"Brother Yan, who is this girl? Why are you hiding her like this?"

Gu Lechi moved closer to Zhou Yan and asked.

Zhou Yan said casually, "It must be Fu Lao Jiu's treasure."

Gu Lechi: "Tell us about it?"

Zhou Yan shook his head: "I can't say. I've gone back. We can't make it tonight."

Before the two could speak, he walked out of Fu Lu's office.

Gu Lechi and Han Zhou looked at each other, and Han Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Zhou, do you know?"

Han Zhou shook his head: "I don't know, but I do know the restaurant they're having their date at tonight."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had reached some kind of agreement.
