Chen Kangxu, who had no idea that the two had broken up, felt indignant on behalf of Jiang Qingtang.
How could Qi Jingchen do this to be worthy of Tangtang's love?
He had to find an opportunity to talk things out with Tangtang and expose his true colors, so that Tangtang wouldn't be kept in the dark and fall deeper into the trap.
A man who is still entangled with his ex-girlfriend doesn't deserve Tangtang's love at all.
Qi Jingchen's assistant then spoke up, beckoning everyone to say that President Qi had informed his friends and asked the others to proceed to the private room first.
"I didn't expect to run into President Lu here."
Qi Jingchen greeted Lu Yanci with a cold expression.
Then all attention was focused on Qin Yue.
He really couldn't stand her indifference towards him.
He would rather Qin Yue scold or hit him like before, because that would mean she still cared about him.
Qi Jingchen: "Would you mind if we added another pair of chopsticks?"
Lu Yanci tightened his grip on the watch strap.
It seems his warning to Qi Jingchen wasn't enough.
Qin Yue smiled politely and formally, then looked up at Qi Jingchen and said with great regret, "I'm sorry, I'm treating President Lu to dinner today, so it's not convenient to add another person. Besides, President Qi isn't alone, so there's no need to add another pair of chopsticks."
Qi Jingchen's lips moved, but before he could speak, she said in a rather cold voice, "Does Mr. Qi have anything else to say?"
It was easy to hear the unspoken meaning in her words.
If there's nothing else, hurry up and go.
Don't disturb them while they are eating.
Lu Yanci remained silent, his gaze shifting between the two men.
He observed Qin Yue discreetly.
If she had shown even the slightest difference in attitude towards her ex-boyfriend, he wouldn't have remained so calm.
Even though she told herself time and time again that she didn't need to care about this insignificant ex-boyfriend, she still felt tense every time Qi Jingchen appeared in front of her.
I can't control it.
Qi Jingchen was rebuffed and his face was really ugly. Not wanting to lose face in front of Lu Yanci, he pretended not to notice her dislike for him and said with an air of superiority, "Then let's make an appointment next time."
He has already sent someone to investigate Lu Yanci.
He couldn't do anything to the Lu family in business, so he could only investigate Lu Yanci's private life.
In Qi Jingchen's view, no one in this world can truly be clean and self-disciplined.
Especially people like Lu Yanci.
As long as he finds out that Lu Yanci has someone around him or has had someone in his life, he will have a way to get rid of him from Qin Yue's side.
After Qi Jingchen left, Lu Yanci took the initiative to bring him up this time.
"Is he the ex-boyfriend you don't want to talk about? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interfere in your private affairs. It's just that Qi Jingchen may have misunderstood our relationship. He said some things to me by the river the day before yesterday."
What good things could possibly come out of Qi Jingchen's dog mouth?
"No matter what he says, just treat it as him talking nonsense."
Lu Yanci gave a soft hum and continued, "I didn't want to bring this up, but seeing that Qi Jingchen's wishful thinking has caused you some unnecessary trouble, I'll say it again: if you need anything, just let me know, and I can help you solve this problem completely."
Qin Yue politely declined his offer, just as she had done before.
Lu Yanci knew that some things needed to be said in moderation.
After finishing his meal, Lu Yanci was pondering how to get her to stay a little longer when she said, "The night is lovely, how about we go for a walk in the park?"
Of course he was willing.
We drove to a nearby park.
The park is quite lively right now.
The wind carried no summer heat, but rather a rich floral fragrance.
The surroundings were filled with the atmosphere of daily life.
There were young couples strolling hand in hand, and couples bringing their children out to play. Next to a flower bed, some elderly people were dancing to music in the square.
Walking along a cobblestone path, Lu Yanci's gaze fell on her ankles. She was wearing flat shoes today: "Do your feet still hurt? If you feel tired, sit on the bench for a while."
"I've only walked a few steps, it's fine. I won't make things difficult for my feet. I'll let you know if it really hurts."
"Um."
"Do you rarely come to such lively places?"
Lu Yanci nodded: "Every day is the same routine: going to work, working, getting off work, occasionally attending banquets and parties, and usually going home when there's nothing to do. It's been a long time since I've had such a relaxing stroll in the park."
He had little interest in going to the park; it was only when she was with him that he felt the noisy sounds were part of life rather than just noise.
Qin Yue's eyes were drawn to a stall selling kittens.
Lu Yanci followed her over.
She squatted down in front of the cage, looking at the kitten inside, which was barely bigger than her palm, her eyes filled with affection.
In her previous life, when she was about to give up, she met a kitten.
The cat is just an ordinary domestic cat.
They huddled in the bushes, shivering in the heavy rain.
As she passed by, it meowed at her pitifully.
She was soaked to the bone at the time.
It doesn't look much better than that.
A feeling of shared misery suddenly welled up inside her, and she carried the kitten to the stairwell.
She knew that given her circumstances, it would be difficult for her to even support herself, let alone a cat. So she found a cardboard box, put two old clothes inside, and made a makeshift little home for it.
Then I fed it some more food.
The skinny kitten wasn't picky; it would eat even a piece of bread.
