When Su Li arrived at the restaurant, Mrs. John had already arrived.
In a private room, several people sat around a table, chatting and laughing.
"This is Miss Su, who saved my husband. I'm so glad to finally meet you."
Mrs. John was a very beautiful and dignified lady with neatly styled blond hair and elegant and distinguished attire.
He stood up and shook hands with Su Li.
"Hello Mrs. John, I am Su Li."
"Thank you for your help."
"You're welcome, it's what I should do."
Mrs. John looked at Quan Ye, who was sitting in the middle, and said, "Mr. Quan's secretary is really beautiful and capable. Mr. Quan is truly blessed."
Su Li's eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at his expression out of the corner of her eye.
This was the first time someone had told Quan Ye that she was his good fortune.
Quan Ye turned to look at her, and she immediately looked away.
"Having Secretary Su around is truly a blessing for me; she can help me handle a lot of things."
Including physiological needs...
Su Li didn't want to hear it; these words had ulterior motives.
She was pulled to Mrs. John's side, who held her hand with great delight.
He also brought her a gift.
"This is a love lock necklace, which I brought from France. It's something only royal princesses have, and I'm giving it to you today."
"I can't accept such an expensive gift."
Su Li quickly refused, but the other party was too enthusiastic.
Mrs. John got up, went behind her, and helped her put on the necklace. "It's alright, I think this one suits you quite well, put it on."
Quan Ye glanced at Su Li's awkward expression, unable to refuse her hospitality, his dark eyes flickered slightly, and he picked up his wine glass and took a small sip.
Foreigners are so enthusiastic; Su Li was kept chatting with them, and they seemed quite annoyed.
She finally found an opportunity to excuse herself and go out to call the waiter for the food.
After explaining the situation to the front desk of the restaurant, Su Li went to the restroom.
As she washed her hands at the sink, a woman next to her cast an envious glance at her.
"Beautiful lady, your necklace is so pretty! Where did you buy it? I want to buy one too."
Su Li glanced at it and said, "I didn't buy it; someone gave it to me as a gift."
"This doesn't look cheap, and it suits you perfectly."
"Thanks."
After the other person left, she looked in the mirror and examined herself carefully.
The chain is very thin, and the pendant in the middle is two gold hearts joined together, commonly known as a love lock.
Mrs. John said it was a French royal item, and it was indeed very dazzling to wear around her neck, incomparable to ordinary necklaces.
Wearing this necklace normally would be too flashy.
At that moment, two figures appeared in the mirror.
Shen Linfeng walked over with a woman in his arms.
Upon seeing her there, he immediately released the woman's waist, gesturing for her to leave first.
The woman looked at Su Li with jealousy, then reluctantly walked away in her high heels.
Su Li witnessed this self-deceptive behavior firsthand.
After washing her hands, she turned to leave as if nothing had happened.
"Ah Li, what are you doing here?"
Shen Linfeng stepped forward and asked gently.
"Come and eat, you go ahead with your work."
Su Li tried to leave, but he stopped her.
"That woman was a friend of mine. We were having dinner here and discussing some business."
"Are you trying to explain this to me?"
"I just don't want you to misunderstand."
"It's okay, I don't misunderstand. You go do your thing."
Su Li walked past him and went out.
Shen Linfeng stood there, feeling extremely uncomfortable thinking about her nonchalant expression.
Just as she was about to leave, he suddenly pulled her back.
What are you doing?
Su Li was pushed to the sink, and he forcibly restrained her.
"Ah Li, I like..."
"Hey, what are you two doing?"
A teasing female voice came from the doorway, interrupting Shen Linfeng's words.
The two turned to look—
