Lu Zheng bombarded Qiao Zhen with a barrage of questions, leaving her feeling dizzy and speechless.

Besides, it seems she doesn't need to report to Lu Zheng what she does, right?

"Mr. Lu, it's after get off work hours now. How I arrange my time is my own business, isn't it? Who I do it for, or who I meet with, seems to be none of your concern!"

Qiao Zhen's words instantly darkened Lu Zheng's face, and a hint of crimson appeared in his eyes.

"None of my business? Qiao Zhen, I'll ask you one more time, where are you? You'd better think carefully before you answer!"

Lu Zheng's tone was calm, but Qiao Zhen sensed the calm before the storm and the threat in Lu Zheng's voice.

She wanted to scream, to ask Lu Zheng why he controlled her like this. But in the end, she gave him the address of the riverside hotel.

"Qiao Zhen, let's go inside."

Gu Xijue appeared behind Qiao Zhen at some point, seemingly unaware that Qiao Zhen was still on the phone, and said something indifferently.

Qiao Zhen was so frightened that she immediately covered her phone.

Lu Zheng just mentioned Gu Xijue's name, which means that Lu Zheng knows Gu Xijue, and may even know that she once had a crush on Gu Xijue.

"Sorry, I didn't see you were still on the phone."

Gu Xijue always wore a faint smile.

Before the call ended, Lu Zheng clearly heard Gu Xijue's voice.

"Damn it! Qiao Zhen, how dare you!"

Lu Zheng slammed his phone to the ground, his eyes burning with an even deeper crimson.

Did I disturb you?

Gu Xijue exuded gentlemanly charm from beginning to end, so Qiao Zhen felt embarrassed to say anything.

"It's alright, let's go back quickly, we've been out for quite a while."

Qiao Zhen awkwardly tugged at the corner of her lips and walked towards the private room first.
