She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

The corridor is lined with private rooms on both sides.

Fang Li went outside, asked a waiter for directions to the restroom, and then walked towards the end of the corridor.

As we passed a private room, a server came out after serving the dishes.

She glanced at it unconsciously.

The private room was filled with men and women. At the head of the table sat a pretty young girl with a cigarette between her fingers, chatting and laughing with the man next to her while puffing out smoke.

Perhaps her gaze alerted the other person.

The girl looked towards the door. Fang Li paused for a moment, nodded politely, and then walked through, the door to the private room behind her slowly closing.

In the box.

"What is Miss Han looking at?"

Han Shiyu smiled dismissively: "Nothing, just saw a woman who was quite pretty."

The man, exuding a roguish charm, leaned back in his chair. Upon hearing this, a smirk played on his lips as he chuckled as if he'd heard an outrageous joke: "Oh, so Miss Han, who's always looked down on everyone, actually compliments another woman on her looks!"

"roll!"

The man laughed: "Now that you mention it, I'm a little curious. What kind of woman just passed by?"

"Want to know?" Han Shiyu's eyes flickered, and she suddenly smiled. "If you're so curious, why don't you go and see for yourself?"

The man raised an eyebrow and made a move to actually get up.

Han Shiyu's face immediately darkened, and her smile became tinged with disgust: "I think that beauty really does look like your type. Go ahead and do your best."

The man's lips curled up, as if he hadn't grasped the deeper meaning in her words, "Then I'll take your good wishes."

He blinked, casually straightened his flashy yet revealing floral shirt, and turned to leave the private room.

After washing her hands, Fang Li prepared to return to the private room.

Unexpectedly, just as she reached the bathroom door, an arm suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way inside.

She immediately took a step back, creating distance between them.

"Please give way."

The man in front of her slowly raised his head, revealing a handsome face that was almost devilishly charming.

"Han Shiyu has been arrogant for so many years, but I never expected that the first woman I would praise would look like this."

He stared at Fang Li without restraint, his gaze sweeping from top to bottom, his eyes filled with an uncomfortable scrutiny and probing.

Fang Li frowned: "Have you seen enough?"

The man met her cold eyes and suddenly chuckled, "It's barely acceptable."

Fang Li was too lazy to listen to his nonsensical ramblings.

He immediately turned his toes to get around him and head to the other side.

The man sensed her intention and immediately changed direction the moment she turned around, raising his other arm to brace against the wall and blocking her again.

Fang Li's last bit of patience was gone.

She already had a cold and beautiful face. Wen Yang once said that her smile was like spring flowers blooming, but as soon as she turned cold, she was comparable to the Black Widow at the peak of her fighting power.

It's intimidating at first glance.

She looked at the man with icy eyes: "Get out of my way."

The man didn't seem to care and continued to smile: "What if I don't allow it?"

Fang Li stared at him, motionless.

While seemingly using indifference to deter the other party, one's mind is actually racing, trying to figure out how to resolve the current situation.

This man looked like a scoundrel, but every piece of his outfit, from head to toe, was a top luxury brand, including the watch on his wrist.

Xu Fangye also has one; it's said that only ten were made worldwide, and even if you have the money, it's very difficult to buy one.

Even if such a man is a spoiled brat, he won't be as easy to deal with as an ordinary thug.

Fang Li hesitated for a moment: "What do you want?"

The man smiled and said, "You should have adopted this attitude earlier."

He lowered his arm, lazily put it in his pocket, and said, "My name is Lu Jie. How about I give you my phone number?"

There was no hint of inquiry in his tone.

It was brimming with unwavering confidence.

As if anticipating that Fang Li wouldn't refuse after hearing his name, he stared at her with a flirtatious yet confident gaze.

Fang Li's brows furrowed even deeper. She didn't want to agree, but if she didn't, it was clear that this Lu Jie wouldn't let her off easily.

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she recited a string of numbers: "

"So quick?" A hint of suspicion appeared in his eyes. "You didn't just make up a story to fool me, did you?"

As he spoke, he took out his phone and dialed the number.

A hint of guilt flashed in Fang Li's eyes.

The man listened to the phone call, observing her expression, and naturally did not miss this subtle change.

The call didn't go through for a while. He glanced at the phone she was holding, which was completely still, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"I knew a wildcat like you wouldn't give in so easily."

Fang Li's expression tightened.

Before she could react, the man simply leaned down slightly, and he quickly snatched the phone from her hand, holding it between his fingers.

"What are you doing? Give it back to me!"

Lu Jie dodged her hand, and with one hand, he turned on the screen and, taking advantage of her lunging forward, pointed the phone at her face.

The phone was easily unlocked.

He resisted Fang Li's attempt to snatch the phone with one hand, while holding it high with the other and quickly dialing a number. Soon, his phone vibrated in his pocket.

At the same time, Fang Li, who was standing on tiptoe with half her body almost hanging on him, finally reached her phone.

He didn't press the matter further and let go naturally.

Fang Li snatched her phone away, staring at him with an unfriendly expression: "Can I leave now?"

Having achieved his goal, Lu Jie kept his word and didn't make things difficult for her any further. He immediately stepped aside and made a gentlemanly gesture of invitation, smiling as he said, "Of course."

This was the first time in her life that Fang Li had encountered such a reckless man. She couldn't be bothered to look at him again and simply walked away.

She felt a surge of anger in her chest, thinking that if this Lu Jie dared to harass her, she would immediately change his number!

In the corner of the corridor, Han Shiyu watched with great interest the woman walking towards her.

As he watched her walk straight past him without ever glancing to the side, her eyes filled with anger, a hint of mockery crept into his own eyes.

How hypocritical.

Countless women in the capital are begging to get involved with Lu Jie. He really thinks he's something special. I don't know if he's genuinely unwilling or just pretending.

Watching Fang Li enter the next private room, Han Shiyu sneered as she unlocked her phone and opened the photos she had just taken.

He casually flipped through it twice, then suddenly seemed to remember something, a wicked smile flashing across his eyes.

She opened her WeChat Moments and posted a status update.

[How long do you think Lu Shao's new love will last this time?]

The accompanying photo shows a man and a woman standing at the end of a corridor. The man is holding his phone high with a smile in his eyes, while the woman is standing on tiptoe and reaching out her hand. The angle of the photo shows their bodies almost overlapping.

Wasn't that woman supposed to be aloof and superior?

She wanted to see if Lu Jie would remain so calm when another woman appeared by his side.
