"Then forget it."
Jian Ruoxi took a small step back.
"I still have work to do, and I don't have time to eat, drink, and have fun with Young Master Lu."
"If it's just about having a meal, I think quite a few people would be willing to go with Young Master Lu."
Her eyes darted away, avoiding looking at Lu Shen across from her.
They were eating alone? It just seems so strange.
How can a divorced couple still eat peacefully?
"Ruoxi, is having dinner with me alone really that difficult and frightening for you?" There was a hint of hurt in Lu Shen's eyes.
Sometimes he really wanted to enter Ruoxi's heart and take a closer look.
It's better to understand all her worries than to keep guessing.
"You're overthinking it. I'm not afraid of you."
That's what she said, but she still didn't dare to look Lu Shen in the eye.
"I am..."
Just as she was about to say the rest of her sentence, Lu Shen suddenly reached out and interrupted her.
"Okay, I understand."
“Let’s go over there first. Ah Jie said Li Anran has been there for a while now.”
Hearing Lu Shen say that, Jian Ruoxi felt a little relieved.
"Okay, let's go then."
Right now, dealing with Li Anran's matter is more important.
As for their relationship, let's talk about that later.
After getting on the bus, Jian Ruoxi's mind started racing uncontrollably.
Lu Shen only asked her to have dinner with him. Since Li Anran was there, what was his plan?
Should we observe from behind the scenes? Or should we launch a surprise attack with her?
Lu Shen didn't tell her a single word about these things.
She suddenly felt a little angry.
Even between ordinary partners, there should at least be a way to exchange information.
She couldn't help but ask.
"Lu Shen, what are you planning to do later?"
From the moment he got on the bus, Lu Shen leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.
Hearing her question, his eyelids twitched slightly.
"You'll find out when you get there."
After observing for so long, he has figured it out.
Even if Li Anran usually hides himself very well, all his pretense will crumble once he meets Ruoxi.
He felt that this time, by bringing Ruoxi along and suddenly appearing out of nowhere, he should gain something special.
Less than two minutes later, the woman beside him started asking him questions again in his ear.
So what exactly are you planning to do?
She was so curious that she couldn't contain herself any longer.
Lu Shen is really disloyal; he was clearly planning to work together to find out who was behind Li Anran.
As a result, he came up with all the plans, and I was just pulled in to play a minor role.
This makes it feel so uninvolving.
Jian Ruoxi had already cursed Lu Shen a thousand times in her heart.
"Didn't I just say that?"
She tilted her head and looked at Lu Shen, as if she wanted to get to the bottom of things.
"But you didn't tell me about the plan!"
Lu Shen, who was sitting next to him, began to darken his face.
He had already steered the conversation away from the topic, but Ruoxi insisted on bringing it up.
"Knowing in advance won't do you any good."
His main purpose was to take Ruoxi out to eat; as for Li Anran's matter, he would handle it.
"How could that be? You're saying I don't have faith in you?"
Her face immediately fell.
"Lu Shen, you haven't been watching entertainment news lately, have you?"
"Do you know how reporters and fans outside are evaluating me?"
"They all say I'm the chosen actress."
She spoke of this with immense pride.
"As long as there is a script, I can easily handle any role."
"So all you need to do is tell me how you want me to appear later."
"Is she a bitter, resentful ex-wife? Or a mistress trying to win back her former love?"
"I can do any of these."
She became more and more excited as she spoke, completely oblivious to the man beside her, who was holding his forehead with one hand, trying his best to restrain himself.
He felt an intense pain in his head.
"Shut up!"
Okay.
Those two words were like a switch, instantly shutting Jian Ruoxi up.
Seeing Jian Ruoxi like this, Lu Shen felt speechless.
He even felt a little regretful.
Was it a mistake to bring Ruoxi out?
If we turn around now, we can send her back.
Is it too late?
For the next twenty minutes, Jian Ruoxi remained unusually quiet.
She would occasionally glance at Lu Shen out of the corner of her eye.
"Why can't you look at people openly? Why are you doing it so secretly?" Lu Shen said with a helpless expression.
"I... I'm just afraid you'll be angry."
He probably has no idea how terrifying it was when he said those two words.
"I'm not angry with you."
Ruoxi had finally gotten back to his side, how could he bear to be angry?
If he angers people and drives them away, he's afraid he'll never be able to get them back.
"If there isn't one, does that mean...?" Jian Ruoxi's eyes suddenly lit up.
An opportunity to gather information has arrived!
"Don't even think about it, I won't tell."
Seeing Jian Ruoxi's face fall instantly, Lu Shen felt a little better.
Ah Jie in front couldn't help but smile.
If only the young master and young mistress could stay like this forever.
They arrived at the restaurant and went inside.
The waiter at the front, who was in charge of greeting guests, leaned close to A-Jie and whispered, "Brother A-Jie, Li Anran has already entered the innermost private room."
"Did anyone go in after us?"
