"What do you think of me..."
He caught a glimpse of a figure on the second floor out of the corner of his eye, and his voice abruptly stopped.
Ouyang Chengyi didn't notice his strange behavior. She felt very embarrassed after being scolded three times tonight.
Of course, what's even more infuriating is that An Szeze defended Song Nuan.
"If you won't help me get revenge, I'll do it myself!"
She huffed and puffed out a harsh remark, picked up her phone, not knowing who to call, but before she could dial, Ouyang Zhoujing snatched the phone away.
He snapped at him coldly, "What are you doing here? Is this how I've always taught you?"
"You clearly said..."
"Why are you arguing here?"
A tall, imposing figure approached, interrupting Ouyang Chengyi before she could finish speaking.
Interrupted from speaking, she turned around angrily, the words of reprimand on the tip of her tongue, but upon seeing that cold and aloof face, she subconsciously swallowed them back down.
She looked at the man timidly, "Brother Jingchen."
Li Jingchen gave a curt "hmm" in response, "What are you arguing about?"
Ouyang Chengyi said angrily, "I was bullied by a woman, and Brother Size even spoke up for her, and so did my brother! She's simply a vixen."
She observed Li Jingchen's expression as she spoke.
Seeing that he had no expression, she became bolder.
"Brother Jingchen, I've been bullied. Will you help me get revenge?"
Li Jingchen's expression was indifferent. "How do you want me to help you?"
After thinking for a moment, Ouyang Chengyi pinched his sleeve and pleaded, "That woman has a business relationship with Berlin. Can you help me get revenge and make Berlin stop cooperating with her?"
The man chuckled, a mocking smile curving his lips. "What did she do to offend you?"
Ouyang Zhoujing stood to the side, his brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly.
Based on his understanding of Li Jingchen, if he truly wanted to seek justice for Ouyang Chengyi, he wouldn't waste time asking her for details.
Li Jingchen's attitude was very unusual.
That woman was probably his sweetheart.
Fearing she might say something outrageous again, Ouyang Zhoujing grabbed her and pulled her away before she could speak, saying, "Ouyang Chengyi, there's a limit to your nonsense!"
"What's wrong with me?!"
Ouyang Zhoujing ignored her and said to Li Jingchen, "I have something to tell you."
Li Jingchen nodded slightly and walked out of the banquet hall first.
Ouyang Zhoujing glared coldly at Ouyang Chengyi before following him out.
Ouyang Cheng stamped his foot in anger.
They all just bully her!
Turning her head, she saw her best friend scrambling to order jewelry from the salesperson, and Ouyang Chengyi became even angrier.
"What are you buying? It's tasteless!" She grabbed her bag and left, bumping her friend's shoulder hard as she went. "Don't you feel ashamed to wear some fake jewelry out in public?"
The person who was hit looked completely bewildered.
After she left, he complained to the person next to him, "She's so arrogant because she's backed by the four major families. I'm so fed up with her."
"Just let her have her way. It's her fault for getting humiliated by that Lynn."
The two exchanged a glance, covered their mouths and chuckled, their eyes full of mockery.
Beside her, Song Ningxue pursed her lips and remained silent.
But his gaze secretly followed Ouyang Chengyi as she left.
The Ouyang family's daughter comes from a wealthy family and is at odds with Song Nuan. Isn't she a perfect ally?
A barely perceptible smile curved her lips.
Outside the banquet hall.
Two tall figures stood side by side.
Ouyang Zhoujing glanced at him sideways and said, "I ordered a blue crystal set tonight as a gift for a woman."
Seeing Li Jingchen's calm expression, he smiled and continued, "It was just a gift to apologize. Don't misunderstand, she's An Sze's person. I won't do anything to her."
"Is that so?"
Li Jingchen's response was both concise and ambiguous.
Ouyang Zhoujing didn't know which question he was asking.
Was she asking about giving him a blue crystal, or was she questioning his statement that "he wouldn't do anything to her"?
It doesn't really matter who he is; what matters is Ouyang Zhoujing's attitude.
Li Jingchen looked up and glanced at him. "Cheng Yi is past the age of throwing tantrums like a child."
"I'll talk to her about it when I get back."
Is there anything Ouyang Zhoujing doesn't understand?
That woman is definitely not simple.
at this time.
The supercar stopped in front of the familiar clubhouse.
Song Nuan narrowed her eyes, a few memories flashing through her mind. "Weren't you supposed to be taking me back? Why did you bring me here?"
“Someone wants to see you.” An Szeze opened the door and handed her the card.
After hesitating for a second, Song Nuan took the room key and found the room with ease.
This club was where she first met Lu Ziyang. They often dated here, so it could be considered their secret hideout in another sense.
The private room was empty, but the table was set with the club's signature snacks and fruit platter.
The chef at this club was to her liking, but she had eaten quite a bit at the banquet and wasn't hungry now.
Song Nuan waited listlessly, knowing who wanted to see her.
Not long after, the door was pushed open, and Lu Ziyang, dressed in simple casual clothes, appeared in Song Nuan's sight.
She wasn't surprised; the moment her lips parted, the man pulled her tightly into his arms.
Song Nuan was bewildered. "What's wrong with you?"
Lu Ziyang lowered his eyes and said, "Ouyang Zhoujing gave you a necklace, don't you know how to refuse? If you like it, you can tell me, and I'll give it to you."
So, she called An Szeze here in the middle of the night just for this?
Ansze is really something, he's quick to speak his mind.
"He insisted on giving it to me, what could I do?" Song Nuan broke free from his embrace and glanced at him indifferently. "Besides, we're just ordinary friends now, you don't seem to have the right to interfere in my private affairs."
"I know, you don't need to say it to upset me anymore."
He was just unhappy.
He didn't attend, but he watched the entire banquet from the second floor, not missing a single second.
Therefore, he knew very well how many pairs of eyes, like hungry wolves eyeing their prey, were staring at Song Nuan as she introduced the products on stage.
He just didn't expect that Ouyang Zhoujing was among them.
Regardless of whether Ouyang Zhoujing apologized or not, he was still unhappy because he gave Song Nuan a gift, which she accepted.
"So that's what you're after?"
"Not really." He said with a sour face, "I've already dealt with the people who kidnapped you."
Song Nuan's pupils dilated in shock. "You killed someone?"
"...He was taken to the police station."
Upon hearing this, Song Nuan let out a long breath.
Lu Ziyang looked at her with amusement, his eyes full of doting affection. "An Szeze already told me that you clearly had a chance to escape, so why did you imprison yourself for my sake?"
Song Nuan opened her lips, about to explain.
"I know you're still worried about me."
"I……"
"You don't need to explain. You gave up something as important as the Berlin banquet. Song Nuan, if you care about me, why are you trying to distance yourself from me?"
"..."
Lu Ziyang didn't give her a chance to speak at all.
Oh well, as long as he's happy.
Song Nuan simply gave up and let him say whatever he wanted without arguing back; she just watched him quietly.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Lu Ziyang raised an eyebrow slightly. "You're not going to refute me, huh? So that means everything I said makes sense?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his hands began to roam over Song Nuan's body, brushing over every sensitive spot.
