"I ran into a disgusting person," Chen Hao replied casually.

My good mood vanished instantly.

"Yes......"

Song Yuanxun tugged at Gu Xingzhou's arm and shook his head at him. Gu Xingzhou understood and swallowed the rest of his words.

Chen Hao pretended not to see them and introduced them to Song Yuanxun and Gu Xingzhou, "This is Director Lu of the Tax Bureau and her sister."

I invited them to dinner today, but I forgot to tell you.

As soon as he finished speaking, he introduced them to Lu Jiaxuan, "These are my two friends, Gu Xingzhou and Song Yuanxun."

Then, turning to Lu Jiaqi beside him with a smile, he joked, "Besides Song Yuanxun, I don't need to introduce Gu Xingzhou, right?"

Lu Jiaqi shook his head shyly, "No need, I know Gu Xingzhou."

Chen Hao introduced his friend to her, and she had inappropriate thoughts.

Seeing how useless his younger sister was, Lu Jiaxuan raised his hand and ruffled Lu Jiaqi's hair, then nodded slightly to the two people opposite him, "Hello."

He wouldn't have kept the appointment today if it weren't for his heartless sister.

After his promotion, he had many things to do every day, and even more people wanted to meet with him.

Song Yuanxun was flattered and awkwardly replied, "Hello."

Unexpectedly, Chen Hao managed to invite this person. Since the Lu family took power, many people have wanted to meet with them, but they couldn't get an appointment.

But today he ran into him.

The Song family's business was very successful, but no matter how successful they were, they were still just businessmen.

When encountering officials, one is naturally at a disadvantage.

Chen Hao also noticed Song Yuanxun's unease, and he smiled to lighten the mood, saying, "Today we are celebrating the cooperation between Song Yuanxun and me."

I'd like to take this opportunity to invite you all to dinner, as a way of thanking you for coming.

He was also quite surprised to be able to meet up with Lu Jiaxuan.

He was just making a casual, polite invitation, and to his surprise, the man agreed.

With such a heavyweight figure around, Chen Hao could only deal with him cautiously.

Lu Jiaqi raised his glass and clinked it against Chen Hao's glass from a distance, "Congratulations, Chen Hao."

"Thank you." Chen Hao raised his hand in return, then tilted his head back and drank the wine in his glass clean.

Seeing this, Lu Jiaqi hurriedly picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it in his bowl, saying, "Chen, eat some food. Don't drink on an empty stomach."

Chen Hao naturally picked up a piece of food and took a bite, saying, "You eat too."

As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

Lu Jiaqi blushed and softly replied, "Okay."

Lu Jiaxuan sighed softly. What to do about his sister's disappointing behavior?

He reached out and ruffled her hair vigorously, turning her head to look at him. He picked up his wine glass and whispered, "Jiaqi, your brother is going to have a drink too."

Lu Jiaqi pushed his hand away and replied irritably, "If you want to drink, then drink."

As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up the food from her bowl and began to eat slowly and carefully.

The food here is delicious. I'll definitely come again next time.

Lu Jiaxuan suppressed his anger, gently flicked her forehead, and whispered, "Aren't you worried I'll hurt my stomach?"

She's not even married yet, and she's already siding with outsiders like this?

He felt a pang of sadness.

"Then you should eat your food first. Do I need to teach you?" Lu Jiaqi glanced at him speechlessly.

"You put that in my bowl!" Lu Jiaxuan commanded in a deep voice.

Lu Jiaqi glanced at him suspiciously, then picked up his chopsticks and put a piece of his least favorite dish on his plate, muttering under his breath, "It's not like you don't have hands."

Looking at the dish he disliked in the bowl, Lu Jiaxuan raised his hand and lightly flicked her forehead. "You're such a good sister to me!"

She used to be a warm and comforting daughter, but now she's letting the wind in.

Lu Jiaqi stood tall and proud, "Of course."

It was as if she hadn't heard the sarcasm in his words.

When Chen Hao saw Lu Jiaqi put another piece of food on Lu Jiaxuan's plate, the strange feeling in his heart disappeared.

Perhaps he misunderstood; it was just normal food sharing between friends.

This was the first time Song Yuanxun had witnessed the interaction between the two. He approached Gu Xingzhou, who was engrossed in his meal, and whispered, "Don't you think something's a little off?"

Gu Xingzhou looked up and replied nonchalantly, "Let's eat. Brother Hao is very popular."

Girls like to flock around Hao Ge, which he's used to.

He'll only find it strange when there are no girls around him.

Song Yuanxun nodded knowingly, then his gaze swept from Chen Hao to Lu Jiaqi, and then to Lu Jiaxuan beside him.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He realized why the Lu family had been so kind to Chen Hao—it was all because of his good looks.

Song Yuanxun raised his hand and touched his face. He was no worse than Chen Hao, so why didn't any daughters of officials take a liking to him?

If you get noticed, you can skip ten years of hard work, just like Chen Hao, who gets so many projects he can't keep up.

Gu Xingzhou saw him touching his face and grinned. He leaned closer and whispered, "Do you think you're handsome too?"

I'm handsome too, but girls only see Brother Hao.

Perhaps Hao Ge simply possesses that kind of charm.

In the end, Gu Xingzhou showed no trace of jealousy. It was innate; who could he blame but himself?

Song Yuanxun choked for a moment, then replied with embarrassment and annoyance, "Eat your food, why do you talk so much?"

Enraged!

Gu Xingzhou shrugged indifferently and continued eating the food in his bowl.

This wasn't the first time he'd seen something like this.

For a moment, no one spoke in the private room except for the constant sound of chewing.

Chen Hao finished eating first and put down his chopsticks.

Lu Jiaqi and his sister followed closely behind, and finally Gu Xingzhou put down his chopsticks at Song Yuanxun's urging.

"Brother Song, don't rush him," Chen Hao said with a smile, trying to stop him.

Gu Xingzhou wiped his mouth. "Brother Hao, I'm done eating."

"Okay, let's go home then." Chen Hao stood up and announced loudly.

“Going back like this? We can catch the next show, go to a bar.” Gu Xingzhou was the first to stand up and object.

The nightlife has just begun, why are you going back already?

"No, I have to work tomorrow," Chen Hao said softly.

I have class tomorrow morning.

......

With either classes or work to attend, Gu Xingzhou followed the crowd listlessly as they walked out.

As soon as I stepped out of the private room, I bumped into the people in the room diagonally opposite mine.

Chen Hao ignored Chen Qian and Chen Wan and walked away without looking at them.

Lu Jiaxuan led his younger sister behind him, waiting for the group to pass.

Huang Zhiyuan looked at the siblings behind him and said, "Your brother and Lu Jiaxuan are very close, you know that?"

"I know, he was just lucky," Chen Wanxin replied reluctantly.

What abilities could a poor boy possibly have? It must be because of good luck!

Huang Zhiyuan frowned slightly and asked, "You two don't have a good relationship with him?"

"No, we have a great relationship. We just did something wrong before and are still angry with each other. It will be fine after a while," Chen Wan replied excitedly.

Chen Qian nodded in agreement, "Young Master Huang, we have a very good relationship."

"Don't worry about that project, my brother will definitely agree to cooperate."
