The assistant, with sharp eyes, caught a glimpse of the general content and was somewhat surprised.
Qiao Zhen asked President Lu to come to the hotel to find her? Why aren't they going back to the hotel? What kind of romantic gesture is this?
"No!" The assistant suddenly realized something and shook his head.
"Mr. Lu, this is probably a trap." As he spoke, his assistant analyzed Qiao Zhen's recent situation for him.
“Miss Qiao went through so much at the hotel, she wouldn’t have gone there unless she had no other choice. Besides, you said you would pick her up, so she would never have asked you to come to the hotel.”
Lu Zheng listened to his assistant's words and nodded slightly, signaling him to continue.
He's right, but if Qiao Zhen didn't send the text message, then who did?
"I'll send someone to the hotel to check and ask the colleagues who attended the dinner."
Seeing that Lu Zheng had no objection, he immediately sent someone to the hotel to find out who booked that room, and also sent messages to the colleagues who attended the dinner.
He received a reply shortly after. Upon seeing the name of the person who booked the room, the assistant scoffed inwardly.
Some people are just too ambitious. We gave them a chance last time, and now they're courting disaster.
This time, we can't blame anyone else.
He told Lu Zheng the message he had received: "Mr. Lu, that room was booked by Qiao Yun. Miss Qiao is having dinner with her colleagues at the restaurant. I heard that Miss Qiao is a little drunk."
Upon hearing the last sentence, Lu Zheng grabbed his suit jacket and left without saying a word.
"Send someone over to the hotel," Lu Zheng instructed his assistant before leaving.
Upon hearing this, the assistant cheerfully replied, "I guarantee I'll complete the task!"
Lu Zheng arrived at the place where Qiao Zhen had dinner, but knowing he couldn't contact her, he called Song Siyi.
Inside the private room, Song Siyi was a little dizzy, but when she saw Lu Zheng's call, she immediately sobered up and her heart was pounding.
She looked up and glanced around, seeing that most of the people had collapsed, but a few were still stubbornly holding on.
"Mr. Lu, what's wrong?" She glanced at Qiao Zhen, who was resting with her eyes closed, and answered the phone.
"Bring Qiao Zhen out and tell her you're going back first," Lu Zheng ordered in a deep voice, staring at the door.
"Yes, yes, I'll be right out." After hanging up Lu Zheng's phone, her heart was still racing.
She thought something had happened that made President Lu call her personally, but it turned out it was about Qiao Zhen!
I really don't know what kind of spell she cast on President Lu, making him eagerly come to pick him up.
Despite her thoughts, she still woke Qiao Zhen up and called her out.
"The car I called has arrived. Qiao Zhen is so drunk, I'll take her home first. Have fun, everyone."
After greeting everyone, Song Siyi pulled Qiao Zhen and headed outside.
Qiao Zhen wasn't really drunk. When she saw Qiao Zhen helping her up, she naturally leaned on her.
After the two women left, Qiao Yun gave her lackey a wink. The lackey immediately followed them, and after seeing them get into a car, he went back and nodded to Qiao Yun.
Thinking of her plan, Qiao Yun was overjoyed. In a great mood, she drank a glass of red wine, picked up her bag, and was about to leave.
She left without saying goodbye to anyone, and the others ignored her as well.
"Mr. Lu, you can just drop me off up ahead. I can call a car back myself."
When she came out, Song Siyi thought for a moment and couldn't understand why President Lu didn't call Qiao Zhen.
It wasn't until she saw Qiao Yun's lackeys following them out that she seemed to realize something.
Holding Qiao Zhen in one arm, she took her phone out of her bag with the other, only to find it was switched off. She frowned slightly. What happened?
Before leaving get off work, she saw that Qiao Zhen's phone still had plenty of battery. How could it be out of power?
Before she could think too much, she saw Lu Zheng's car parked on the side of the road. In order not to arouse the suspicion of his lackeys, she even went to greet Lu Zheng.
Now that the person has been put on the bus, she, this "tool," no longer needs to stay.
Lu Zheng had no intention of taking her back. Upon hearing her words, he immediately stopped the car and let her go home by herself.
Song Siyi stood by the roadside, her feelings a mix of emotions.
Just as she was about to call a car, a car came to a smooth stop in front of her.
"Ms. Song, please get in the car." The car window rolled down, revealing Lu Zheng's assistant's face.
"Sit in the front?" After putting Song Siyi down, Lu Zheng glanced at Qiao Zhen through the rearview mirror and asked in a deep voice.
Hearing Lu Zheng's words, Qiao Zhen licked her slightly dry lips and asked, "How do you know I'm not drunk?"
"What do you think?" Lu Zheng didn't reply to her question, but instead asked.
"If she knew, would she still ask him?" Qiao Zhen wondered to herself, reluctantly sitting in the passenger seat.
Seeing her huffy expression, Lu Zheng's lips curled up slightly, and a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.
When they first came out, he genuinely thought she was drunk. But after getting in the car, he noticed she was sitting there quietly with her eyes closed, and he knew she was faking it.
"Why did you come over?" She hadn't even texted him to come over, how did he get here so quickly?
"Look at your phone." As soon as he said that, she suddenly remembered that Song Siyi had also glanced at her phone when she saw her off.
Curious, she took out her phone, only to find that it had been switched off sometime earlier.
That's not right. Her phone was fully charged when she came out, so how could it be out of power?
Thinking about it, she pressed the power button a few times, and the phone lit up instantly.
"Check your text messages." Lu Zheng glanced at her phone out of the corner of his eye and saw it was turned on. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he said in a deep voice.
Qiao Zhen obediently did as instructed, but found nothing when she opened it. She looked at Lu Zheng in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
Lu Zheng took out his phone, opened his text messages, and showed her the message she had sent him.
Upon seeing this message, Qiao Zhen immediately understood what was going on. She touched her hair and laughed in exasperation.
This Qiao Yun is really something; she didn't target herself, but instead targeted Lu Zheng.
Does she lack common sense? Is Lu Zheng someone she can easily get her hands on?
In Qiao Yun's eyes, there was no man she couldn't have. After Qiao Zhen left, she rushed to the hotel without stopping.
She learned from the receptionist that a man had gone up, and only Lu Zheng and she knew about it. She assumed in her heart that the man was Lu Zheng.
Once inside the room, she closed the door, switched to a dim yellow light, and lit the items she had bought from the dark market.
Upon seeing a man emerge from the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, she pounced on him without a word.
They took advantage of someone without even seeing their face.
Back home, Lu Zheng received photos from his subordinates, and the coldness in his eyes deepened.
There will be big news tomorrow.
"What reward do I get for bringing you back?" Lu Zheng turned off his phone screen, sat down next to Qiao Zhen, rested his head on her shoulder, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Huh? Didn't President Lu offer to pick me up? Why is there a reward?"
Qiao Zhen looked at Lu Zheng and said with a grin.
Although she wasn't drunk, she was a little out of it; to put it simply, she felt a bit excited.
It was precisely because she was half-drunk and half-awake that she dared to speak to Lu Zheng like that.
