Inside the bar, Lu Jiangyu sat in their old seat.
Sitting opposite him were Xu Taiyang, Li Xianghao, and two other familiar men.
They all looked at him with extremely surprised eyes.
Li Xianghao chuckled and asked, "Did the sun rise from the west today? How come a busy man like you would come to sit in a bar?"
Lu Jiangyu held a wine glass in his hand and chuckled: "I'm not a machine. I have to take a break, right?"
"Where is Miss Xu? Why didn't you bring her with you?" Li Xianghao could no longer describe his admiration for Xu Piao.
Since Lu Jiangyu knew her identity and seemed very interested in her, he was very surprised that he didn't bring her along today.
"She is not suitable here." Lu Jiangyu answered ambiguously.
"Haha, only you are suitable, how could she not be suitable?" Li Xianghao asked with a chuckle.
Lu Jiangyu glanced at him with a hint of warning in his eyes.
The atmosphere also became a little tense at this moment.
Xu Taiyang immediately came out to act as a peacemaker and said with a smile: "We are having a men's party today, so let's not let women get involved, okay?"
Others also agreed, "That's right, we are all gathered together tonight, so let's not say things that make people unhappy."
Xu Taiyang gave Li Xianghao a look, after all, he was the one who raised the question first.
No matter what, Xu Piao is Lu Jiangyu's woman. As friends, there is no need for them to have unpleasantness because of an unfamiliar woman.
Li Xianghao shrugged. He didn't know why he had some dissatisfaction with Lu Jiangyu.
Especially when I think about how Xu Piao, such a powerful person, voluntarily stayed with Lu Jiangyu and suffered so much grievance.
I had an urge to stand up for her.
After he calmed down, he came to his senses and realized that he seemed to be meddling too much.
As they continued chatting, Xie Jianing walked into the bar.
She nodded to her bar friends first, then walked up.
She seemed surprised and greeted, "You are all here, what a coincidence."
Li Xianghao saw her and subconsciously glanced at Lu Jiangyu next to him, smiling: "Miss Xie, you are here to drink too?"
"You know I'm not a big drinker. I just came here to sit for a while and relieve my boredom."
Xie Jianing replied with a smile, and her eyes could not help but fall on Lu Jiangyu: "I didn't expect you all to be here, even Jiangyu you are here."
Lu Jiangyu just glanced at her lightly, then looked away, ignoring her greeting.
Xu Taiyang greeted, "Since you are here, why don't we sit together."
Xie Jianing was very happy to receive Xu Taiyang's invitation.
"Xu Taiyang, do you remember what you just said?" Li Xianghao asked with a chuckle.
"What?" Xu Taiyang asked in confusion.
"You said that tonight is a party between us men, and it has nothing to do with women, right?"
Li Xianghao said with interest: "Why isn't Miss Xie a woman? Aren't you too partial to invite her to sit here?"
"I..." Xu Taiyang just said it casually just to be a peacemaker without thinking too much about it.
I didn't expect that Li Xianghao would find evidence against me now.
He looked at Xie Jianing awkwardly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Xie Jianing didn't expect that they would say this to each other.
If I can't sit with them, what's the point of coming here?
She didn't know what was wrong with Li Xianghao today. It seemed like he was deliberately going against her.
This was something that would have been impossible before.
She looked at Lu Jiangyu, hoping he could say a few words.
As long as he opens his mouth, he will have a chance to stay.
However, Lu Jiangyu seemed not to see her gaze and said nothing.
Xie Jianing pursed her lips and immediately changed her strategy, "Jiang Yu, it's a good thing I met you here. I have something to tell you. Can you come down for a moment?"
"Just say whatever you want to say here." Lu Jiangyu had no intention of getting up.
Xie Jianing was slightly stunned. She found that Lu Jiangyu's attitude towards her had changed.
And it has become particularly big. If it were in the past, he would definitely not stand idly by if something happened to him.
When he hears that I have something to say, he will listen patiently.
But now, he refused.
She froze where she was, not knowing what to say for a moment.
No one around spoke up for her.
Xie Jianing pursed her lips, looking aggrieved, "Jiang Yu, it was my second brother's fault today. I hope you can stop arguing with him for my sake, okay?"
Lu Jiangyu raised his eyebrows and thought of what Xu Piao said.
This matter is related to Xie Jianing. If Xie Jianing hadn't said anything to Xie Mingjun, Xie Mingjun wouldn't be stupid enough to cause trouble for her.
But now, Xie Jianing said that it was Xie Mingjun's problem and had nothing to do with her?
"You've found the wrong person for this matter. It has nothing to do with me." Lu Jiangyu smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Jiang Yu..." Xie Jianing didn't expect to get such an answer.
"You know very well what you have done, and you also know how to solve this problem. You don't need me to say more." Lu Jiangyu said in a light tone.
"I..." When Xie Jianing heard this, he already knew what was going on.
Does he want me to apologize to Xu Piao?
How is that possible?
Lu Jiangyu lost his patience and said coldly: "It's rare for us to get together and chat. If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Xie Jianing knew that he was trying to drive her away.
Looking at his extremely unfamiliar gaze, she couldn't help but clench her fists.
She nodded aggrievedly: "I won't bother you anymore, goodbye."
After she left, Xu Taiyang showed a very puzzled expression, "What's going on? Why are you so cold to her now?"
"Isn't this what should be done?" Lu Jiangyu asked back.
Xu Taiyang was slightly stunned, thinking of his different attitude towards Xu Piao at the last banquet.
Xu Taiyang couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that I guessed it right. Are you playing yourself into trouble?"
"What do you mean? What are you talking about?" The others were extremely curious.
"Tell me quickly, what's going on?"
Xie Jianing walked down the stairs, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.
It shouldn't be like this.
I had saved Lu Jiangyu before, and he had always been very caring towards me.
Although we are not as close as a couple, we are still good friends.
However, today, she found that they seemed to have returned to the past and became a pair of strangers.
Xu Piao!
Xu Piao must have said something in front of him that caused such a drastic change in his attitude towards him.
This bitch!
I will never let you go!
