Qiao Zhen joked, "Why don't you just give me a title? That way I won't have to deal with all this trouble."
After listening, Lu Zheng snorted coldly, and his indifferent expression returned to his usual demeanor.
"Give you a title? Qiao Zhen, that's impossible."
Qiao Zhen listened expressionlessly, then turned and went into the dressing room to change her clothes.
She really shouldn't have given him chances time and time again, while giving herself hope.
She zipped up her clothes, looked at her refined self in the mirror, and sneered.
Unexpectedly, the first thing Lu Zheng said to him as soon as he stepped out of the locker room was, "You really don't remember me?"
Qiao Zhen didn't expect him to ask the question again, but she really couldn't recall any memories of him.
Moreover, every second she tried to explore the memories in her mind, her head ached as if it were being pricked with needles.
"I don't remember, but I do remember having quite a few affairs with men like you before."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng's face darkened, and his tone became somewhat enigmatic: "You mean, you want to tell me?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen smiled and said, "If you want to hear it, I can tell you."
“Okay, go ahead.” Lu Zheng said, and then his phone rang.
After he answered the phone, he learned that the Song family had already arrived at his doorstep.
Lu Zheng didn't care at all. He simply told them to wait at the door and then looked at Qiao Zhen with a leisurely air, as if waiting for his performance.
"Aren't you going to greet the Song family first?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "You perform first, and leave them hanging until they're done."
Okay then.
Qiao Zhen was speechless; this was what they called forcing someone into a difficult situation.
So, if he doesn't perform, Lu Zheng won't release him?
"What, Mr. Lu, are you so interested in my private life?"
Qiao Zhen curled her lips. Since Lu Zheng didn't respect the Song family, he, as an outsider, had no reason to think about the Song family.
"Can't I ask?" Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, his sharp gaze sweeping over Qiao Zhen in front of him.
Qiao Zhen pursed his lips. Since that's the case, then he would start to use his imagination.
Thinking of this, Qiao Zhen smiled and started making things up: "I remember when I was in school, I dated quite a few guys. I would dump them when I didn't want them anymore. I must have dated at least a few hundred."
After saying that, Qiao Zhen raised her chin and looked at Lu Zheng with pride.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zheng laughed wildly after hearing this: "Really?"
Qiao Zhen rarely saw him smile, and couldn't help but be taken aback: "If it's not real, how can it be fake?"
"Hmph." Lu Zheng snorted coldly, his tone tinged with disdain: "You're right about everything."
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen couldn't figure out what he was really thinking, and continued to make up stories: "When I got to college, even more people pursued me, but I had high standards and didn't date many, though I did have a few unforgettable romances."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng's smile faded, but the disdain in his eyes did not diminish.
"Hmm, are you finished editing?"
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen was stunned for a moment, then blushed and retorted, "You're the one making this up, this is the truth."
"Then tell me the names of all your ex-boyfriends."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen was speechless. He stammered for a long time without being able to say anything.
"What's wrong? Can't keep up the story? You were making it up perfectly just now, weren't you?"
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen lowered her head and coughed twice, her eyes full of guilt: "I didn't talk about it seriously, I don't remember the name."
Lu Zheng didn't speak, but just looked at him for a long time. Suddenly, he stood up and pressed Qiao Zhen's head down: "I know everything about you. You don't need to lie to me, because I can see through everything."
"you……"
Qiao Zhen's pupils contracted slightly, and her fingertips trembled involuntarily.
Why did this man have the courage to say such a thing?
Even though I haven't known him for very long.
"So I advise you, Qiao Zhen, not to keep things a secret from me."
After hearing this, Qiao Zhen pursed her lips: "I didn't lie to you."
Lu Zheng was too lazy to waste words with him. He shook his hand and slammed the door as he left, saying, "Don't give yourself away in front of the Song family later."
Watching Lu Zheng slam the door and leave, Qiao Zhen silently clenched her clothes.
When Qiao Zhen came down, the Song family had already arrived.
Seemingly unaware that Qiao Zhen was there, Song Shiyi's expression instantly turned somewhat unpleasant.
"Miss Qiao, what are you doing in Mr. Lu's private villa?"
Song Shiyi asked in a displeased tone.
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen naturally didn't want to back down. She curled her lips and retorted without any politeness: "Then let me ask you, Miss Song, how did you end up in President Lu's private villa?"
Song Shiyi didn't expect him to be so blunt in his retort. Her lips trembled, and she vented her anger on her father, who was standing next to her: "Dad, look at her! How dare she talk to me like that in front of outsiders."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Song's expression darkened, but he still maintained basic politeness and said, "Miss Qiao, we are here today to discuss the wedding with Mr. Lu, so please do not interfere."
"Miss Song, were you implying that Mr. Lu is an outsider?"
Qiao Zhen ignored what Song's father said and changed the subject.
Song Shiyi's face paled, probably not expecting Qiao Zhen to speak so sharply, and her expression turned somewhat unpleasant: "Watch your mouth, how can I treat President Lu as an outsider? I'm going to marry him."
"Really? Does President Lu agree with what you're saying?"
Qiao Zhen sneered twice. Although he didn't know much about Lu Zheng's mental journey, he knew perfectly well that someone like Lu Zheng would definitely look down on someone like Song Shiyi.
Upon hearing this, Song Shiyi feigned shyness and looked at Lu Zheng beside her, saying, "Brother Lu Zheng, look at what he said."
Hearing this, Lu Zheng smiled but didn't say anything else, his eyes remaining fixed on Qiao Zhen.
Qiao Zhen curled the corner of his mouth. Goodness, was he being tested or was he being asked to save the day?
"See? Even Brother Lu Zheng didn't deny it, so he must be admitting it!"
Seeing Lu Zheng's smiling reaction, Song Shiyi felt even more confident.
In this world, who else is worthy of Lu Zheng besides him?
"I won't comment on the others, but Miss Song, you're really in a hurry. Mr. Lu just divorced Miss Shen not long ago, and you're already rushing to marry her?"
The mere mention of Chen Yan caused both Song Shiyi and Lu Zheng's faces to darken.
Qiao Zhen caught a glimpse of Lu Zheng's reaction and smiled with satisfaction.
They want to use her as a shield? Dream on.
"Miss Qiao, are you perhaps too concerned about Mr. Lu's personal life? It's perfectly reasonable for him and Miss Shen to give up on marriage. It was a mutual decision, and Miss Shen has already found her other half. Please don't worry about it too much."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen smiled and said, "I don't know much about the relationship between the two of them. On the contrary, Miss Song, you can talk about so much so easily. I'm afraid you know more about it than I do."
Upon hearing this, Song Shiyi's face stiffened and her expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
