"Just keep it; it's your sister's good intention."
Hearing this, Qiao Luosheng couldn't refuse, so he said thank you, sister, and accepted the money.
Seeing that Qiao Luosheng had accepted the money, Qiao Zhen felt relieved and began to prepare various items for the house.
After sleeping at home again, he finally got up to go to work the next day.
Looking at Qiao Zhen, who hadn't come home all night, Lu Zheng frowned.
"You didn't come home last night, where did you go?"
Qiao Zhen truthfully replied, "I went to the mall yesterday to buy some things for my younger brother and the others. They were so tired that they fell asleep at home and forgot to tell you. I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Lu Zheng nodded knowingly and said, "Remember to let me know next time, don't make me wait at home."
Qiao Zhen then noticed that Lu Zheng had two obvious dark circles under his eyes, clearly indicating that he hadn't slept well last night.
"You last night..."
Qiao Zhen stopped halfway through her sentence, realizing that she was now concerned about Lu Zheng.
While he was still in a daze, Song Shiyi suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Brother Lu Zheng, I ran into Sister Qiao Zhen by chance yesterday at the men's clothing store."
Lu Zheng's face remained expressionless when he heard the first few words.
Lu Zheng's expression softened slightly after hearing that it was in a men's clothing store.
Which men's clothing store?
Lu Zheng asked, but his gaze lingered on Qiao Zhen.
Song Shiyi thought Lu Zheng was angry, and proudly raised her chin to tell Lu Zheng.
Qiao Zhen remained cold throughout, and he wanted to see what Song Shiyi was trying to keep secret.
After he finished speaking, Lu Zheng didn't say anything, but just kept looking at Qiao Zhen, as if he wanted to see what he wanted to say.
"I bought that for my brother."
Qiao Zhen shrugged, acknowledging that it was indeed the truth.
"Sister Qiao Zhen must be lying. Would she buy so many clothes for just one person?"
Song Shiyi quickly retorted, saying that in short, she distrusted Qiao Zhen from head to toe.
Qiao Zhen laughed in exasperation: "Just because you buy a lot of clothes doesn't mean they're not for one person? What kind of logic is that?"
"What else?" Song Shiyi retorted without thinking, never intending to be in the wrong from the start.
Perhaps realizing no one was speaking after she finished speaking, Song Shiyi looked at Lu Zheng in a flattering manner.
"Brother Lu Zheng, as for other matters, you should ask Sister Qiao Zhen yourself. As an outsider, it's not appropriate for me to say anything."
After saying that, Song Shiyi left Qiao Zhen with only a provocative look.
Lu Zheng didn't leave; he grabbed Qiao Zhen's arm and dragged her into the office.
"Everything I just said is true."
Qiao Zhen was practically ready to raise her hands and swear an oath.
“I didn’t mention that.” Lu Zheng said, while starting to undress Qiao Zhen.
"What are you doing?" Qiao Zhen was startled.
This is so sudden.
“You didn’t come home last night, and I endured it all night.” Lu Zheng’s brief words made Qiao Zhen’s face turn red.
This man always speaks his mind!
I don't even know how they said it in such a roundabout way!
"Couldn't you have put it more tactfully?"
Qiao Zhen's voice trembled slightly; the dense touch was slowly eroding her reason.
Lu Zheng smiled teasingly: "When have I ever been tactful with you?"
"Can't you learn a little bit?" Qiao Zhen asked, almost as if possessed.
Hearing this, Lu Zheng chuckled in a low voice and countered with an even greater force, causing Qiao Zhen to let out a soft groan.
"You think I'll be tactful? No way, Qiao Zhen."
After an unknown amount of time, when Qiao Zhen woke up again, she was already sitting in Lu Zheng's office chair.
The culprit has disappeared without a trace.
Qiao Zhen cursed under her breath, then quickly got up, tidied herself up, and ran out of the office.
Along the way, she noticed that everyone was looking at him strangely.
At first, she didn't know what was going on either.
But later, when Tang Yue spoke to him again, Qiao Zhen realized something was wrong.
She forgot to cover up the concealer on her neck!
That bastard, he shamed her again without any regard for the place or time.
Qiao Zhen admitted that he really felt like dying.
She quickly grabbed a concealer and went into the bathroom, where she carefully touched up her makeup while looking in the mirror when no one was around.
"You vixen, all you do all day is seduce men."
Just as Qiao Zhen finished finishing, Song Shiyi's unpleasant voice rang out from the side.
Qiao Zhen was annoyed by the voice and rolled her eyes before heading out.
"You dare roll your eyes at me? You've really given me a hard time."
Song Shiyi snorted coldly; he had never seen Qiao Zhen so arrogant.
A commoner like Qiao Zhen should grovel at her feet for the rest of his life. Does he really think that sleeping with high-society people a few times will allow him to climb the social ladder?
You must be dreaming!
"Ms. Song, are we that familiar? What obligation do I have to reply to you?"
Qiao Zhen said expressionlessly.
Song Shiyi seemed to be stunned by those words. She opened her mouth for a long time but didn't know what to say. In the end, she could only glare angrily at Qiao Zhen.
"What do you mean? Did I say something wrong?"
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen lowered her head and smiled.
Since things have come to this point, and Song Shiyi doesn't want to show him any mercy, then he doesn't need to show her any mercy either.
"If I remember correctly, Mr. Lu is single now, and so am I. The two of us..."
"Shut up!"
Song Shiyi screamed, interrupting their conversation with a ferocious expression.
He forbade anyone to mention in front of him the fact that she had submitted her marriage proposal to Lu Zheng, only to be dismissed with a perfunctory rejection.
