"Eat up, why aren't you eating?"

Zhao Jing looked at him with a half-smile.

Xu Tian glared at her secretly. In this situation, Zhao Jing was the only one who understood the situation, but instead of helping him out, she led the way in making a fuss.

"Here, have a shrimp."

Chu Lan thoughtfully peeled the shrimp and brought it to Xu Tian's mouth, and Xu Tian opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Is it delicious?" Chu Lan asked with a beaming smile.

Xu Tian nodded, "Delicious!"

Although Chu Lan was understanding, Xu Tian was her official boyfriend, and she needed to assert her ownership. Seeing this, Su Nuannuan simply lowered her head and continued eating, while Zhao Jing watched the two showing affection and smiled happily.

Zhao Jing was the most clear-headed person. Since she could accept that Xu Tian had Chu Lan and Su Nuannuan by his side, she wouldn't care about these things. Moreover, winning over Xu Tian was her ultimate goal. Even if Xu Tian's true love wasn't her, it would be enough as long as she had a place by his side.

Xu Tian was drenched in sweat during the meal, and he only breathed a sigh of relief after watching Zhao Jing and Su Nuannuan leave.

Chu Lan leaned against the bar, looking at him with an expression that seemed to see right through him.

"Young Master Xu, how does it feel to be surrounded by beautiful women?"

Xu Tiansheng looked at her with a sense of despair, "You've really been corrupted by Zhao Jing!"

Chu Lan smiled and said, "I think Zhao Jing is a good person. She sees through everything."

"Forget it, even my grandma would shake her head at her unreasonable logic!"

Chu Lan laughed out loud, "She's a girl after all, don't say these things in front of your family."

Before she finished speaking, Xu Tian was already beside her. With a gasp, Chu Lan was hoisted onto his shoulder.

"We can talk about other things later, let's get down to business now!"

boom!

The bedroom door was closed, shutting out all sound and noise from the outside world.

The next day, Xu Tian, ​​feeling refreshed, took Chu Lan, whose legs were weak from the ordeal, to the company.

"Cheer up! You don't act like a domineering female CEO at all!"

Xu Tian joked.

Chu Lan looked at him coquettishly, "Hmph, it's all your fault! I've only just recovered from a serious illness, and you've already tormented me. You have no chivalry whatsoever!"

"Didn't you say that 'don't want' means 'want'?" Xu Tian said with a wicked smile.

Chu Lan sighed. She couldn't compete with Meng Haoran's smooth talk. However, she might only be able to stay at the company for the morning. She received a call from Meng Haoran in another city, who was the orphan she had previously sponsored.

The two met for the first time at a charity event. Meng Haoran had mentioned that he wanted to invite him to visit his company and offer some guidance.

Previously, because Su Nuannuan was kidnapped and he was also implicated, he kept postponing it. Now that everything is fine, it would be inappropriate to postpone it again.

Upon hearing this, Xu Tian immediately felt a sense of crisis and exclaimed, "I'll go with you!"

Chu Lan smiled and shook her head. "You should go talk to Zhao Jing about the live streaming collaboration. We can't delay any longer, or we'll be overwhelmed if Mei Yi Group does anything to us again."

"No, I want to go!" Xu Tian said stubbornly.

Chu Lan's eyes flickered as she smiled at Xu Tian, ​​"Are you worried about me, or about other people?"

"Both are true. As the saying goes, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has his eye on you. I don't think Meng Haoran is a good person!"

Chu Lan said helplessly, "Does that mean all the men who get close to me are bad people?"

"That's not true, except for me!" Xu Tian said with a sly smile.

"Alright, let's get down to business first. I promise, I'll come right back after visiting his company without even having dinner, how about that?"

Xu Tian hesitated for a while, but still agreed.

Zhang Qian and his affair served as a constant reminder that if a woman doesn't have feelings for him, she's capable of anything. But if she does have feelings for him, she'll know her limits. He trusts Chu Lan, and he trusts himself.

With that in mind, Xu Tian drove directly to Zhao Jing's house.

Since moving out of the Zhao family home, Zhao Jing has been living very comfortably outside. Zhao Pengfei asked her to move back several times, but she refused, so he gave in to her.

"Have you decided on the content for the live stream?" Xu Tian asked.

While putting on makeup, Zhao Jing said, "Live streaming is a piece of cake for me, but I have more important things to do right now."

Xu Tian was taken aback. "What is it?"

Zhao Jing smiled mysteriously, "It's a secret!"

Xu Tian knew she was being deliberately mysterious, but he still waited for her to finish her makeup.

"Let's go," Zhao Jing said cheerfully.

Xu Tian asked suspiciously, "Where are we going?"

"A date, huh? You forgot you promised me?" Zhao Jing said matter-of-factly.

Xu Tian was stunned. "When did I agree to go on a date with you?"

Zhao Jing rolled her eyes. "Didn't you promise to give me red roses? Are you going to just give them to me like that? You should give them to me when we're really in love!"

Xu Tian rubbed his forehead, exasperated. "How can your imagination be so vivid?"

"So are you going to send the gift or not? If you don't, I won't agree to do the live stream. You can have whoever you want do the live stream!"

Xu Tian also lost his temper, "Fine, I won't broadcast it then! I'll find someone else!"

With that, he patted his bottom and left.

Zhao Jing shouted angrily from behind, "Xu Tian, ​​you bastard, come back here, and we'll talk about it again, okay?!"

Ke Xu drove away without looking back.

Xu Tian had a gloomy face the whole way. Although Zhao Jing had a lot of temper, he had always given in to her. He couldn't let Zhao Jing lead him by the nose every time. So Xu Tian decided to teach her a lesson this time. A man can't be so spineless!

Xu Tian's phone vibrated. He saw it was Zhao Jing calling and hung up immediately, telling her to reflect on her actions.

Just as Xu Tian was driving at high speed, secretly determined to teach Zhao Jing a lesson, his phone vibrated again, and a text message caught his eye.

"Xu Tian, ​​I know I was wrong. See you at our usual spot tonight, there's a surprise for you~ PS: Don't let Sister Chu Lan know, hehe."

Just as I was about to toss my phone aside, another message popped up, this time from Zhang Qian.

"Can we talk? I'm at the coffee shop downstairs from your office. There's something I think you'll be interested in."

Xu Tian didn't even have the thought of replying to the text message. Zhang Qian had done this many times before. She had nothing to do with it except want to keep bothering him.

Just then, Zhang Qian sent another text message.

"It's about Chu Lan. I'll wait for you at the coffee shop."

Xu Tian frowned and parked the car on the side of the road. If it weren't for Chu Lan, he wouldn't have hesitated at all. After thinking for a moment, he started the car again and drove to the coffee shop downstairs from Xusheng Group.

Through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, Xu Tian immediately saw Zhang Qian sitting by the window.

Zhang Qian also looked up at this moment, and when she saw Xu Tian arrive, her lifeless eyes suddenly lit up.

Xu Tian braced himself and went inside, sitting down opposite Zhang Qian.

"What happened to Chu Lan?"
