Qiao Zhen always felt that since the classmates had lost contact after graduation, Gu Xijue should not know what happened to her later.
Thinking of this, Qiao Zhen suddenly looked up in surprise and met Gu Xijue's affectionate gaze.
At this moment, she realized that she no longer felt the same flutter in her heart as when she looked at Gu Xijue, and just smiled shyly.
"I didn't expect you to care about me so much."
Gu Xijue also spoke up: "Well, after all, we're all classmates."
Qiao Zhen smiled, and neither of them brought it up.
After their conversation, Qiao Zhen and Gu Xijue left the private room and headed towards the door.
"It's getting late, how about I take you home?"
Looking at the pitch-black sky outside, Gu Xijue asked with concern.
Qiao Zhen paused. Although she was also afraid of the dark, if Gu Xijue drove her home and Lu Zheng bumped into them, it would probably cause another bloodbath.
“Well, maybe not…” Qiao Zhen was about to refuse when a cold male voice suddenly rang out behind her: “I’ll take her home.”
Upon hearing the source of the voice, Qiao Zhen was somewhat taken aback and turned around in surprise to meet Lu Zheng's face.
What is he doing here?
Qiao Zhen admitted that she was a little scared for a moment.
Gu Xijue was not surprised by his arrival, and simply said, "Since Mr. Lu is here, then I will trouble you to take Zhenzhen home."
Hearing this, Lu Zheng's face darkened slightly: "Okay, let's go back to my house."
After saying that, Lu Zheng left with only a provocative smile, picked up Qiao Zhen and left the scene.
Qiao Zhen struggled in his arms, wishing she could punch and kick him.
This jerk just has to assert his dominance in front of others, carrying her out in public, doesn't he?
He doesn't care about being embarrassed, but Qiao Zhen does.
Lu Zheng went to the car, unlocked it, threw Qiao Zhen into the passenger seat, returned to the driver's seat, and started the car.
Qiao Zhen was annoyed by his throw and asked irritably, "Is this how you treat someone when you're taking them home?"
"What attitude do you want from me, hmm?" Lu Zheng retorted, his tone revealing impatience.
Qiao Zhen pursed her lips, noticing his displeasure, but at this moment she just wanted to pretend she didn't see it: "It's my freedom to see whoever I want, and President Lu probably has no right to interfere, after all, we have no relationship whatsoever."
Lu Zheng sneered: "Miss Qiao really has a bad memory. The past may have faded from memory, but that doesn't mean it doesn't count."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen felt a chill. Lu Zheng's frequent mention of events from several years ago inadvertently proved the importance of this matter.
However, judging from Lu Zheng's attitude, Qiao Zhen felt that Lu Zheng thought he only remembered the general idea.
That's why they didn't directly break off relations.
"Could it be that I dated you before?" Qiao Zhen asked with a smile, secretly observing Lu Zheng's reaction.
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng remained silent for a moment before saying, "Qiao Zhen, haven't you remembered yet?"
Qiao Zhen fell silent; it seemed she still wasn't very good at getting information out of others.
Before they could react, they heard Lu Zheng chuckle self-deprecatingly and then speed up the car.
After getting out of the car, Lu Zheng quickly pulled Qiao Zhen out and rushed into the villa.
"Slow down!" Qiao Zhen stumbled and almost fell, yelling irritably.
"Don't worry, I'll be a little slower later," Lu Zheng whispered in Qiao Zhen's ear, pulling her arm.
Qiao Zhen shuddered and instinctively tried to push Lu Zheng's hand away.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zheng's hand was like an iron clamp, rendering Qiao Zhen unable to move. She could only glare to express her anger.
"Don't worry, we'll have plenty of time to think about it later. Until you figure it out, you have no right to resist me."
As they spoke, the two arrived at the bedroom. Lu Zheng sneered and then tore Qiao Zhen's clothes to shreds.
Qiao Zhen clutched her chest and tried to escape, but Lu Zheng pulled her back and held her tightly in his arms.
"Qiao Zhen, you'll never escape my grasp!"
*
When Qiao Zhen opened her eyes again, Lu Zheng was no longer beside her.
Qiao Zhen struggled to her feet, feeling waves of soreness throughout her body, which made her grimace in pain.
That bastard, he bites her all the time!
After mentally cursing him, Qiao Zhen looked at herself in the mirror and couldn't help but curse Lu Zheng for another ten minutes.
Half an hour later, Qiao Zhen left the house, cursing and swearing.
It's all Lu Zheng's fault for being too ruthless last night; Qiao Zhen spent ten minutes just applying concealer this morning.
Sitting in the taxi, Qiao Zhen couldn't help but think of Lu Zheng's words from last night, and felt irritated.
What exactly happened between me and Lu Zheng before?
Every time she thought of this, Qiao Zhen felt her headache getting worse. She couldn't help but feel a little dazed and took out her phone to ask Gu Xijue.
Unexpectedly, Gu Xijue called her before she could.
“Zhenzhen, I’ve pretty much figured out what’s going on with Dean Zhou. We can go and confront him together when the time comes.”
After answering the phone, Qiao Zhen was still wondering why Gu Xijue always timed things so precisely.
After hearing the contents of the phone call, Qiao Zhen was overjoyed and forgot about what had just happened: "Okay, then after you've completely sorted it out, we'll arrange a time to go see him."
"Okay, you can get ready for work now. I won't bother you anymore." Gu Xijue said and hung up the phone.
Qiao Zhen was holding her phone when she suddenly realized something was wrong.
How did Gu Xijue know she was on her way to the company to prepare for work?
Thinking of this, Qiao Zhen subconsciously looked at her phone.
Qiao Zhen's face was reflected on the screen, which had already been turned off.
