"Let her in."

Zhou Ruoling, still dressed in her evening gown and high heels, walked in. Looking at the state of the room, she smiled slightly and asked, "Have I disturbed you?"

Gong Chengjue glanced at her.

There's no need to put on an act if no outsiders are present.

Zhou Ruoling sat down on the single sofa and sighed softly, "Is this the start of their operation?"

"Scared?" Gong Chengjue glanced at her.

Zhou Ruoling took out a cigarette and lit it gently.

Gong Chengjue frowned.

"Take two puffs. I haven't smoked a single cigarette since I changed my clothes for the banquet." He said, while skillfully taking two puffs.

Then, to Gong Chengjue's displeasure, he stubbed out his cigarette and waved it away.

"Go open the window," Gong Chengjue said to Luo Jinhan.

Gong Chengjue and Zhou Ruoling have a completely cooperative relationship, so Zhou Ruoling is not afraid of him at all. Well... she's a little bit afraid in her heart, but not on the surface.

"What am I afraid of?" Zhou Ruoling answered his question. "Isn't this what was expected?"

Gong Chengjue glanced at her.

Zhou Ruoling straightened her back and sat up straight. "Your skills are quite good, if it weren't for Su Ziqing's unexpected presence..."

“Unexpected events are uncontrollable.” Gong Chengjue interrupted her, not wanting to hear anyone say anything bad about Su Ziqing.

Zhou Ruoling looked at Gong Chengjue with an expression that said, "I understand, don't get excited."

Is someone really that important to you?

some.

But was she lucky enough to witness that Gong Chengjue, who was rumored to be uninterested in women, actually liked Su Ziqing genuinely, and that it wasn't just for show?

"You guys continue, I'll stay silent," Zhou Ruoling added, "I'll try not to say anything."

However, Sakai clearly did not trust Zhou Ruoling's existence, only saying that it was not a very important piece of information.

Zhou Ruoling, fiddling with two fingers as if bored during her wait, suddenly asked, "Miss Su and Mr. Lu are together?"

Sakai: "..." Miss Zhou, are you deliberately bringing up a sore spot?

Gong Chengjue's expression also turned ugly, and he glanced at her.

Zhou Ruoling seemed oblivious to his unpleasant expression and said earnestly, "Mr. Lu is also very high on the list of single men."

Have you said enough?

"What I mean is, are you sure you don't want to explain this to Su Ziqing?" Zhou Ruoling kindly reminded her.

Gong Chengjue scoffed, "Then you can go back to being Miss Zhou."

Does this mean ending the cooperation? Of course not.

"Never mind what I said." She smiled, her eyes slightly narrowed. "I really love being Mr. Gong's girlfriend."

The silent crowd: "..."

Her phone suddenly beeped with a WeChat message. She glanced at it and read, "I'm going out to meet a friend. I'll be back later."

"Zhou Ruoling," Gong Chengjue called out to her softly.

Zhou Ruoling, who had reached the doorway, turned around gracefully. "Hmm? What brings you here?"

"Keep a low profile." He gave him a warning look.

Zhou Ruoling chuckled lightly, "Of course, I wouldn't dare to be high-profile."

In the elevator, Zhou Ruoling sent a message to Ms. An on WeChat, "I'm coming over now."

The elevator stopped after going down one floor, and another person stepped in—Su Enen.

Having changed into a clean dress, Su Enen was in a very bad mood. Lu Linghong, that bastard, actually dared to show her no respect!

Once she gets back to the capital, she'll... cry in front of her aunt!

No matter how great a man is outside, he still has to deal with his mother when he gets home. Besides, his sister is also her good friend. Thinking that Lu Linghong would be scolded by his family, she breathed a little easier.

However, she did not expect to see Zhou Ruoling in the elevator.

In the capital, Zhou Ruoling did not actually grow up in the same batch as Gong Chengjue and Su Enen; to put it simply, Zhou Ruoling was older than them.

In junior high and high school, the difference between being three years older or younger was significant. But now that I'm an adult, I don't care so much about the age gap anymore.

However, Zhou Ruoling was four years older than them. When Su Enen was in the first year of junior high school, Zhou Ruoling was already in high school.

Most socialites of Zhou Ruoling's age are already wealthy ladies.

Zhou Ruoling, however, remained single, and surprisingly, she ended up with Gong Chengjue...

"Sister Ruoling." Even the arrogant Su Enen had to obediently call Zhou Ruoling "sister" when she met her face to face.

Zhou Ruoling merely glanced at her and gave a curt reply, showing no interest whatsoever in engaging Su Enen in conversation.

Su Ensi looked at Zhou Ruoling, and then, as if remembering something, she took the initiative to speak, "Sister Ruoling, congratulations on getting together with Gong Chengjue."

Zhou Ruoling glanced at her again. What did she want to say?

"Men all like fresh and tender women. Some women are quite cunning, so you should be careful, Sister Ruoling." Her words were a veiled warning to Su Ziqing.

Zhou Ruoling pretended not to understand and sneered, "Is Miss Su implying that I'm not fresh enough?"

Su Enen, "..." Did she miss the point?

"Sister Ruoling, you were abroad for a while, so there might be some things you don't know. Gong Chengjue was with Su Ziqing from City A. I heard he even argued with the late Mr. Gong over that Miss Su."

Su Enen is very good at sowing discord.

She felt that this was a sure thing.

However……

"Who doesn't have an ex?" Zhou Ruoling looked at her newly done nails and advised Su Enen in a tone of someone who had been through it all, "You're still too young. The world doesn't revolve around you alone."

Su Enen: "..."

When the elevator reached the second floor, Zhou Ruoling stepped out first.

Su Enen followed behind her, still unwilling to give up, "I heard that the Gong family was planning to get engaged to Su Ziqing before."

Zhou Ruoling turned her head, feeling somewhat confused, "Then who is his current girlfriend?" It's her.

Su Enen was speechless. Zhou Ruoling didn't seem to mind Su Ziqing's presence at all?

"Enen." A young lady from the capital walked towards Su Enen, a hint of excitement in her voice. "Su Ziqing is injured."

When others are not doing well, it is the best news for yourself. Su Enen embodies this principle very well!

Zhou Ruoling glanced at the excited 'little sister'.

Without saying anything more, she walked away aloofly in her high heels.

"What a pity, we didn't run into her." The girl told Su Enen what had happened at the hotel entrance. Since it was a version she'd heard, Su Enen interpreted Su Ziqing's story as Su Ziqing being a homewrecker and being retaliated against...

After all, Sakai's selfless act with Ichigo left room for imagination.

Qianjin whispered in Su Enen's ear, "Su Ziqing went to the emergency room, but she was examined by the obstetrics and gynecology department..."

Su Enen sneered. Lu Linghong now knows how stupid he is, doesn't he?
