Chapter 24 Some things are bound to happen

"Mr. Lu, there's a charity dinner tomorrow night. I'm wondering if you're free. I'd like to invite you to go along as a thank you for your help."

Lu Jinxuan's eyes were filled with joy. "Of course I'm free. Just send me the time and place, and I can pick you up."

The conversation between the two people was carried by the wind and gently reached the ears of the three people next door.

Shen Yubai looked at Lu Tingzhou and vaguely felt that he definitely had special feelings for Sang Wan.

What happened at the horse farm that day was definitely not just about the reputation of the horse farm. With so many businesses under his belt, why would he risk his life for a mere horse farm?

"Hey, if you're really not interested, I'll go for it. Sang Wan doesn't match your nephew. And when it comes to being rich, I'm not bad either."

Chen Yubai knew that Sang Wan might have other intentions at the moment.

I just don't know how long my buddy can hold on.

Song Ze looked at Lu Tingzhou without saying a word. Shen Yubai didn't know about it, but he knew, so he didn't know how to persuade him.

Lu Tingzhou glared at him and said, "It would be better if you weren't so loose-lipped."

Chen Yubai, "Do you have any conscience? Who am I trying to persuade you with all my heart for? If you don't have feelings for her, how can I tell? You're investing and giving her roles, do you really think others can't see that?"

Lu Tingzhou did not deny it, but got up and went to the bathroom.

Sang Wan saw someone get up and leave, so she said hello to Lu Jinxuan and quietly followed him.

Catching sight of that dignified figure, Sang Wan pushed the door open and came out of the bathroom.

I just happened to meet Lu Tingzhou.

Seeing the man, she was stunned for a moment and took a step back, "Mr. Lu, you first."

Lu Tingzhou frowned slightly at her polite and distant attitude.

He talks and laughs with others, but is respectful, polite and distant when he sees me.

Lu Tingzhou was still not used to Sang Wan's sudden change.

The cute way she flirted with him a few days ago flashed through her mind.

Seeing Sang Wan bow slightly with a very good attitude, Lu Tingzhou felt confused.

Isn't this what I want? Let her stay away from me.

Now that people are really staying away from him, he can't stand it.

Sourness and bitterness all mixed together.

But he still suppressed the strangeness in his heart and slowly took a step forward.

He had only taken two steps when he stopped, as both a reminder and a warning.

"If Miss Sang wants to attract Lu Jinxuan's attention, it will be difficult to get past his mother. It will also be difficult for me."

Sang Wan took a step forward and gently lifted the long hair by her ear. The fragrance of gardenia instantly penetrated the man's nostrils.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, but it's really nice to have a little uncle like you to protect me."

Sang Wan deliberately pronounced the word "uncle" very lightly, and her gentle voice brought out an inexplicable charm and sense of taboo.

It seems like my uncle has brought some color.

It also seemed to remind him that maybe one day she would call him uncle.

After she finished speaking, she pursed her red lips, glanced at him with curved eyebrows, bowed slightly, and acted humble, as if she really treated him as an elder.

Inadvertently, the spring scenery under the low-cut dress fell into Lu Tingzhou's sight.

It is revealing but not too revealing, just the right amount of alluring.

Lu Tingzhou's throat tightened, his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, and he quickly looked away.

Sang Wan didn't stop, glanced at the man's cold profile, and walked away.

The perfect curves are fully displayed under the elegant demeanor, and more importantly, it makes people want to feel the slender waist.

Lu Tingzhou realized that his thoughts had strayed and took a deep breath to calm himself.

When Sang Wan came back, a man stopped her.

"Ms. Sang, I'm not sure if there will be any chance for cooperation in the future. My jewelry company is looking for a suitable endorsement."

The man moved forward as he spoke, and the obscene look in his eyes made Sang Wan unhappy.

Due to her status, she pursed her lips and declined, "Sorry, please talk to my agent about the cooperation."

Su Mo was temporarily assigned by the company to organize tonight's anniversary celebration.

She had just come out from backstage and saw Sang Wan being stopped, so she walked up to him with a drink in her hand.

"Oh, Mr. Li, we apologize for the poor hospitality at the Imperial Court tonight. Please forgive us."

She said this and motioned Sang Wan to leave.

Mr. Li saw that she was making excuses for Sang Wan. Thinking of how Sang Wan and Lu Jinxuan were always talking and laughing, he couldn't say anything because of the Lu family.

But the girl in front of me seems pretty good too.

He came forward with a glass of wine, and put his hand dishonestly on Su Mo's waist, "It's not a matter of forgiveness, it's just about drinking."

Su Mo felt that the dirty hands were inappropriate and smiled, "Mr. Li, you put your hands in the wrong place. If you don't know where to put them, I can help you."

Mr. Li had drunk quite a bit, and his mind was a little blurry at the moment. He was also obsessed with lust, so he asked, "Can you help me? How? With your hands..."

Su Mo gritted her teeth and smiled, not indulging him. She raised her high heels and stepped directly on the instep of his foot.

"Are you satisfied with this method of helping?"

"ah!"

Mr. Li had just shouted when suddenly another voice came.

"I can help, too."

Then, there was another pig-slaughtering cry.

Everyone's attention was drawn to it.

"If you are unruly in my place, I can help you and make you behaved and honest."

Shen Yubai's sudden appearance made Su Mo stunned for a moment. She didn't expect him to do this.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen."

Chen Yubai raised his eyebrows, "You are mine, you can't lose face in your own place."

Su Mo was stunned for a moment, wondering how she became his.

Seeing him walking away in a nonchalant manner, Su Mo curled her lips. Since she was his employee, she was of course his person.

This boss is okay. He always stands by his employees at critical moments.

Sang Wan turned around and looked at the person behind him, thinking that this white man Shen Yu was not bad.

At this time, Xu Mingyue and Song Ziqian were already sitting next to Lu Jinxuan.

Xu Mingyue moved closer to Lu Jinxuan and spoke softly, "Jinxuan, I heard from my father that you invested in Sang Corporation. I knew you were the best to me."

As she spoke, she wanted to take Lu Jinxuan's arm.

Lu Jinxuan subconsciously avoided it, frowning slightly: "Xu Mingyue, you think too much. I invested in Sang's because of Sang Wan."

Xu Mingyue's smile froze, and she was a little bit incredulous: "For... for Sang Wan?"

"Yes." Lu Jinxuan nodded, ignoring Xu Mingyue's embarrassment. "Sang Wan has a partnership with our company. Her company is in trouble, and I will definitely help if I can."

Xu Mingyue's face suddenly turned pale.

Even Song Ziqian who was standing by felt that Lu Jinxuan was deliberately embarrassing Xu Mingyue.

When Sang Wan returned to her seat, Xu Mingyue gave her a vicious look.

"Sister, what were you talking about with Jinxuan just now? You looked so happy."

Lu Jinxuan spoke first, his voice light, "Nothing, just chatting."

Song Ziqian nodded slightly and raised her glass towards Sang Wan to ease the atmosphere.

"Sang Wan, you'll be joining the crew in a few days. I'm looking forward to working with you."

"I'm also looking forward to it. After all, Miss Song debuted earlier than me. I will definitely learn a lot from her."

This statement also steps on Song Ziqian's tail. She debuted earlier than Sang Wan, but she is not as famous as her and has no fans.

He couldn't help but look at Sang Wan with a bit more resentment.

Sang Wan was in no mood to chat with them, so she stood up and wanted to change seats.

Song Ziqian gave Xu Mingyue a look, and when Sang Wan passed by, Xu Mingyue raised her foot slightly without making any expression.

Sang Wan saw that look out of the corner of her eye, but she also saw Lu Tingzhou preparing to leave in front of her.

So, she didn't avoid it if she could, but instead went along with what certain people wanted.

"Ah!" Sang Wan exclaimed.

She lost control of her body and instinctively pounced on the person in front of her.

His head hit Lu Tingzhou's back directly, and his hands grabbed his clothes on both sides.

"it hurts."

Lu Tingzhou was not interested in the jealousy of young people. He wanted to get up and go out to smoke a cigarette, but he didn't expect Sang Wan to bump into him on the back.

The collision seemed quite heavy.

He hurriedly raised his hand to hold her wrist, then turned around.

There was mist in the woman's eyes and her forehead was scarlet.

But she endured the pain and pushed him away, like a frightened deer, and apologized in panic: "Mr. Lu, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean it!"

Her watery peach blossom eyes were filled with apology and helplessness, and her voice was so timid that it made people's hearts soften.

Seeing that Sang Wan was a little afraid of his uncle, Lu Jinxuan became even more uncertain about the relationship between the two.

He suddenly stood up and supported Sang Wan, asking with concern: "Does it hurt?"

Sang Wan felt that compared to the pain in her forehead, the pain in her ankle that was suddenly pulled was even greater.

But, she pretended to be strong and said, "I'm fine."

As she was talking, she wanted to move forward, but her high heels suddenly twisted and she was about to fall again.

At this moment, two men supported her in an instant, Lu Jinxuan on the left and Lu Tingzhou on the right.

After Sang Wan stood still, her brows furrowed, and her first reaction was to push Lu Tingzhou's hand away.

"Please, Master Lu, take me back."

As she spoke, tears had already fallen, and one was still hanging on her eyelash, about to fall, which made people feel particularly distressed.

Before Lu Tingzhou could come to his senses, he heard Xu Mingyue's nervous and weak voice.

"Sister, are you okay? I'll take you home."

Sang Wan said aggrievedly: "Don't bother, sister, just put your feet away."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinxuan glared at Xu Mingyue deeply, then bent down and picked up Sang Wan.

"I'll take you to the hospital."

Lu Tingzhou stood aside and secretly clenched his fists.

Sang Wan reacted and glanced at Lu Tingzhou. Seeing that he didn't move, she decided to go all out and hugged Lu Jinxuan's neck.

Although she was just hanging on to it lightly, it definitely looked sexy to outsiders.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden scene. The eldest grandson of the Lu family and a popular young actress, if this were released, it would definitely be a headline.

Although the guests around were talking to each other, many of them were attracted by the movement here.

"Isn't that Sang Wan? Why is she so close to the young master of the Lu family?"

"I heard that she is very close to Mr. Lu."

"This Sang Wan is so bold, wavering between the uncle and nephew of the Lu family. Is she tired of living? How dare she provoke someone like Lu Tingzhou?"

"But having said that, this Sang Wan is indeed dazzlingly beautiful. No wonder the young master of the Lu family is so bewitched by her."

"The battle between uncle and nephew for the wife would be a great show if it could be staged."

The discussion was not loud, but it was faint.

However, they did not get what they wanted. Lu Tingzhou never moved, but watched them leave.

For some unknown reason, Shen Yubai actually followed Lu Jinxuan's steps and sent him directly to the door.

Song Ze pursed his lips and was silent for a while, then whispered, "Tingzhou, some things are bound to happen, and you can't avoid them. Unless you can really bear to watch her marry someone else."
