Li Susu hesitated for a moment, then sat down.
Fu Xingzhou handed her the chopsticks, a smile playing on his lips.
Li Susu smiled, took the chopsticks, and began to introduce the dishes on the table to him.
Fu Xingzhou was quite pleased with their warm and friendly manner.
"Mr. Li, you're very kind."
Li Susu's smile deepened. "I'm glad Mr. Fu likes it. As for the meeting with Mr. Yu..."
Fu Xingzhou smiled meaningfully, not expecting him to lose his composure so quickly.
"If President Li wants my help, he should at least give me a reasonable reason."
“Although we are partners, the fact that the Li family’s cash flow has dried up should not be my concern.”
Li Susu gritted her teeth and said, "That's true, but I would be very grateful if President Fu were willing to help."
Such polite words made Fu Xingzhou's expression darken.
"President Li is really too polite to me."
The word "polite" was emphasized even more, making Li Susu clearly realize that he was in a bad mood.
Li Susu chuckled twice and then put down her chopsticks.
"Then tell me, what kind of reward do you want?"
"As long as I can afford it, I'll give it to you."
Fu Xingzhou raised an eyebrow at Li Susu's heroic sacrifice.
"Anything is fine?"
"nature."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Xingzhou leaned down and moved closer, so close that their breaths mingled.
This made Li Susu's heart beat even faster, but she didn't dodge immediately.
The ambiguous atmosphere intensified, and Li Susu swallowed hard before breaking the silence.
"You...were you angry that night at the victory celebration?"
Her words seemed nonsensical, but Fu Xingzhou understood them nonetheless.
It seems that this little wildcat isn't so stupid after all; it's perfectly clear-headed, but it usually pretends to be confused.
What should you do?
Li Susu took a breath, "I... I wasn't telling the truth."
Fu Xingzhou's eyes brightened. He wasn't telling the truth? So he was lying?
"What's the difference between telling the truth and telling a lie?"
Li Susu's ears turned red, and she looked away uncomfortably, then took a step back to maintain a safe distance.
"You know perfectly well what's going on, so why ask again?"
"In short, I can only ask you for help with Yu Xin's matter. Time is of the essence. If you still refuse, then forget it."
Li Susu suddenly stood up. "I won't disturb President Fu's lunch any longer. I'll be leaving now."
She turned and left, her back view showing a hint of panic.
The office quieted down again, and Fu Xingzhou, in a good mood, continued eating his lunch.
Although it was a takeout meal, it was still warm in the food container and tasted good.
tasty.
After leaving the company, Li Susu reflected on what she had just said.
Did my impulsive decision just now imply that I like Fu Xingzhou?
How could she so easily utter such sweet words?
Li Susu pulled at her hair in frustration, her whole face scrunched up.
Could Fu Xingzhou have really misunderstood?
Li Susu was conflicted all the way back to the company, but then she received some good news.
"President Li, we've made contact with Rose Villa, and President Yu has agreed to let you visit them in person."
Li Susu's eyes lit up. "Really?"
"It's true. President Yu's assistant said that you should go to Xiwu tomorrow with President Fu."
