“Lu Huai,” she crossed her arms and said arrogantly, “Since when have you become so secretive? Admit that it’s a date, and I might change my mind about you. Because right now, I feel like you’re trying to cover something up.”

Lu Huai’s frown deepened.

Even though he did not care about Song Hua, it was true that this restaurant was not booked by him.

Song Hua’s justification for misunderstanding him was with evidence.

Xu Lian looked up in panic and explained, “Ms. Song, it’s not like what you think it is. Mr. Lu Huai didn’t book this restaurant. I chose it. I had something to discuss with Mr. Lu Huai alone. 1 know the owner of this restaurant, so 1 booked this restaurant.”

After she said that, only then did Song Hua turn to Xu Lian.

She still had that high and mighty attitude as she sized up Xu Lian with contempt, as if she was looking at a commodity.

Song Hua suddenly covered her mouth and laughed. Her eyes raised slightly as she stared straight at Xu Lian.

“We’re both girls,” she said. “I can understand what you’re thinking. Just because you had something really important to say to Lu Huai, doesn’t mean that it didn’t come without though. Didn’t you choose this restaurant to enhance the atmosphere? If other men were here, they might end up falling for this trick. We’re both women. I know what you’re thinking, but I’m different from you. I do what 1 think. 1 don’t care what others think of me. But you, you clearly want to improve your relationship with Lu Huai. You even want Lu Huai to have a good impression of you, but you won’t dare to admit it. What a sorry state of an excuse to say.”

Xu Lian’s face was filled with shame.

She did have many restaurants to choose from. The reason why she chose this restaurant was because it had a good reputation.

Secondly, this restaurant was rather high-end, which suited Lu Huai’s status.

The last point was also her secretive thought. She hoped that in such a romantic restaurant, she could increase Lu Huai’s impression of her.

Now, her secrets have been mercilessly exposed by Song Hua, making Xu Lian feel extremely ashamed.

Xu Lian fumbled her hands and stammered, unable to say anything.

Seeing this, Lu Huai took the initiative to defend Xu Lian. He said to Song Hua, “No matter what Xu Lian’s motive is, she doesn’t want to harm me. Even if there are girls who want to pursue me, that’s my business. What right do you have to control me?”

Xu Lian immediately raised her head and looked at Lu Huai with a touched expression.

“Mr. Lu Huai…” she said softly.

Song Hua was getting more and more annoyed.

Back in the company, Lu Huai had defended Pei Xin in public.

Now, in this restaurant, Lu Huai was reprimanding her in front of Xu Lian.

Song Hua’s eyes also revealed some hurt. She questioned Lu Huai, “Am 1 that worthless to you? No matter what, we grew up together. Why do you keep embarrassing me time and time again because of other women? Don’t you care about how I feel?”

Lu Huai spoke matter-of-factly. “You’re the one who’s not in the right mind. You rushed in and interrupted our meal. The moment you opened your mouth, you attackedXu Lian. This is your fault.”

Song Hua was so angry that she scoffed.

“Why do you think I’m here? I’m just afraid that you’ll be seduced by scheming women. I heard that the Lu Corporation’s financial status has fallen and you urgently need to gain new projects to increase your income.

“Do you think Pei Xin can bring you luck, or that Xu Lian can bring you new projects?

“Wake up Lu Huai! Only the Song family can help you!”

Lu Huai’s eyes were indifferent. “You don’t have to worry about this. I don’t need to beg women to do business with me.”

Song Hua’s gaze swept across Xu Lian and Lu Huai, and she stood there, unwilling to leave.

“Alright, I’ll remember what you said.” Song Hua turned around and left after saying that.

After Song Hua left, Xu Lian looked at Lu Huai worriedly. “Did this matter cause you trouble? i heard that the Song family and the Lu family are long time friends. They also have a lot of business ties.. Will she bear a grudge against you because of this and cause trouble for your business?”
