A complex emotion flashed across Zhou Yanci's eyes as she quickly chased after him.
They didn't even pause for a second when passing through the slumbering.
The others stood there, stunned.
What's going on?
Zhou Yanci actually abandoned Chenmian and left?
At the same time, Shang Wu quickly left the bar.
The surprise and hurt on her face had vanished, replaced by indifference.
Many cars were parked at the entrance, waiting to pick up passengers.
She got into the nearest car, closed the door, and picked up her phone.
When she hung up the phone from Zhou Yanci, she said without looking up, "Please go to Junyue Mansion."
After saying that, the driver neither started the car nor spoke.
Shang Wu looked up in confusion.
A man was sitting in the driver's seat of the Lexus.
He glanced at me sideways; his features were striking, but his eyes held no emotion.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds, and Shang Wu didn't react immediately: "It's you?"
Lu Rang scoffed: "Miss Shang only ever says these two words when she meets people?"
Shang Wu caught a glimpse of Zhou Yanci chasing after her from the bar entrance and immediately knocked on the chair.
"Drive first."
Lu Rang's gaze was already displeased: "I'm waiting for my friend, not your Didi driver. Get out."
Shang Wu bit her lip. Seeing that Zhou Yanci had started looking at the people sitting in each car, she immediately leaned over and lay down on the back seat.
Lu Rang frowned.
Zhou Yanci searched around but couldn't find anyone, so she anxiously went into the bar.
"The person has left, go downstairs immediately."
His tone was cold and stern, tinged with impatience and annoyance.
Shang Wu knew this man disliked trouble, but she didn't expect him to react so strongly, as if he was afraid of getting himself into trouble and getting involved in her love affairs.
She pursed her lips, turned around and got out of the car without saying a word.
Shang Wu thought for a moment, then turned back to the passenger side and knocked on the window.
Lu Rang lowered the car window slightly and looked at her.
“I’ll get the money. You should seriously consider whether you want to take this job, okay?” Shang Wu looked at him intently, her eyes fixed on him.
The bar sign lights shifted between red and blue, while Lu Rang's expression remained hidden in the shadows.
After a long pause, he gave a soft "hmm," so soft it was almost inaudible.
Shang Wu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly left, and got into a taxi ahead.
Inside the taxi, a woman with a tattooed arm extended out, and a hand wearing a gold watch flicked off cigarette ash.
He doesn't look like a proper driver.
Lu Rang's gaze continued to follow.
A man walked over, sat in the passenger seat, and rubbed his temples.
"Those bastards are real dogs! They only agreed to testify for the defendant after we've talked them out for so long!"
After saying that, Yan Yue wrinkled his nose suspiciously: "Is there something wrong with my sense of smell? Why does your car smell like a woman?"
Lu Rang started the car, paused for two seconds, and said, "You smelled it wrong."
"That's true, you're always focused on your work, all those pretty girls at the front desk are wasting their time flirting with you, why don't you ever look at me? I'm not bad looking either..."
Yan Yue leaned closer, staring at the rearview mirror and touching his chin.
Lu Rang ignored it, looked straight ahead at the taxi in front of him, and slowly stepped on the gas.
"Oh, by the way, I heard you asked a client for ten times the reward at noon today. What case is so difficult? Everyone's talking about it." Yan Yue leaned against the passenger seat and looked at him.
This was the first time Lu Rang had offered to pay more money.
Lu Rang finally responded: "The merchant's case."
"Oh... Ah?!"
Yan Yue sat up straight in surprise: "Isn't the merchant case already closed? Some went to jail, some received compensation. It was a high-profile case that lasted for more than half a year. There should be no objections now."
Lu Rang glanced at the traffic lights.
Three seconds left.
He stepped on the gas and accelerated.
"Who's looking for you? It can't be Shang Wu, can it? She's engaged to President Chengzhou now. If she wants to investigate anything, she should go to Jinshui Law Firm!"
Yan Yue rested his head on his arm, leaned back, and sneered: "Hmph, Jinshui is now backed up by Zhou Yanci, and is doing incredibly well. They dare to challenge us!"
Lu Rang stepped on the brakes.
The car stopped at the Grand Hyatt Residence.
A slender figure got out of the taxi ahead and entered the residential area.
Yan Yue was completely bewildered: "What are you doing? Do the four characters of Junyue Mansion and Dingfeng Law Firm look that similar?"
Lu Rang watched the taxi stop for a few seconds before driving away before turning his car around.
...
When Shang Wu got home, she kicked off her high heels, shook her sore ankles, and took out a bottle of water to drink.
The phone was still buzzing.
She hung up on Zhou Yanci for the eighteenth time and went upstairs to take a shower.
When they came out, there was indeed someone sitting in the living room.
Shang Wu looked down at Zhou Yanci: "What are you doing here? Go back to your home."
Zhou Yanci immediately stood up, her eyes filled with tension and guilt, so much so that she didn't know what to do with her hands.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. But I have no interest or feelings for Chenmian. I just didn't want you to hit someone in public and it would get out, really!"
Shang Wu's eyes flashed, and she went downstairs.
Seeing that she was finally willing to communicate, Zhou Yanci breathed a sigh of relief.
After Shang Wu stormed out, he chased after her without even paying attention to Chen Mian. When he couldn't get through on the phone, he had no desire to stay at the party and didn't want to deal with Chen Mian anymore.
He only felt a little relieved when he found his way here like a headless fly and heard the sound of a shower going on upstairs.
Perhaps he was just afraid that Shang Wu would notice something was wrong and shake their relationship.
Now is a crucial time for the jewelry department to launch new products, and we cannot afford to have any relationship problems with Shang Wu.
Yes, that's all he's worried about.
Zhou Yanci looked focused and gently took Shang Wu's hand, wanting to kiss the back of her hand.
Shang Wu dodged it.
Zhou Yanci sighed softly, "Awu, please forgive me. I won't do it again next time."
Shang Wu turned her head away, still ignoring him.
