Chapter 671: Why Pretend to Be Innocent
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“A very serious question.”
“Eh?”
Shen Zhiyi said in all seriousness, “Can love really change a person’s psychological structure?”
“…” What the hell? She didn’t understand.
Lin Wanwan and Lu Zhanbei had been sitting for barely two minutes when Qi Junze walked over with wine. He looked refined and elegant. Based on his looks alone, it could be said he was definitely worthy of being known as an unparalleled gentleman.
“Mr. Lu, congratulations on winning this project.”
Lu Zhanbei didn’t want to see Qi Junze at all.
He had always been the kind to take revenge on the spot and not leave it until tomorrow. Even if, on account of Tang Chen, he no longer minded Qi Junze kidnapping Lin Wanwan previously, he still didn’t feel comfortable in his heart.
“You’re quite well informed.”
Qi Junze seemed to not have sensed the coldness in his tone. “I’m very interested in this project as well. I initially thought that the management would arrange a bidding for this. I didn’t expect Mr. Lu to actually be determined directly. What a pity.”
Lin Wanwan frowned. Was Qi Junze being sarcastic that Lu Zhanbei only obtained this project through his connections?
Lu Zhanbei was holding a glass of juice in his hands. Lin Wanwan had forcefully given him this, what with alcohol being harmful to the stomach.
“If you have the ability, you can snatch it over from my hands.”
He raised his cup lightly. His tone was indifferent but full of power.
Qi Junze realized Lu Zhanbei never looked at him from the beginning to the end. It was as if in his heart, he was just a negligible speck of dust. His heart turned cold.
“If this were a fair competition, I wouldn’t mind. However, now that the situation’s fixed, I can only give up.”
Lu Zhanbei did not say anything.
Qi Junze could tell that Lu Zhanbei didn’t want to bother about him. Or perhaps he was full of disdain toward him…
“Mr. Lu, I’ll get going first.”
Before leaving, he gave Lin Wanwan an apologetic smile. “Ms. Lin, I express my apologies once again for causing you trouble previously. I hope we can be friends in the future.”
He didn’t give Lin Wanwan a chance to reply. He turned around and left.
Lin Wanwan pouted. He was obviously a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Why pretend to be innocent?
Qi Junze returned to his original seat. As he sat down, he heard Tang Chen’s gloating words.
“Forced to yield?”
He wanted to find out useful information from Lu Zhanbei? What a fool.
Qi Junze looked at him. There was faint anger as well as a trace of helplessness in his eyes. “Tangtang, don’t forget. We are all in the same boat.”
Tang Chen frowned his eyebrows tightly in disgust. “Don’t call me Tangtang. I find it disgusting.”
Qi Junze lowered his eyes slightly and didn’t mind his bad attitude. “Lu Zhengyu must have something else up his sleeves. This is our chance.”
“Oh.”
Qi Junze could see his indifference at a glance. He could not help but say in a more serious tone, “If you still want to get Lin Wanwan, you better drop your absent-mindedness.”
Tang Chen looked lazy, but his eyes were chilling to the bones. “I know what to do. I don’t need you to point your finger at me.”
Qi Junze drank a sip of wine. “We don’t have to do much. We just have to deal Lu Zhanbei a fatal blow once he encounters danger.”
Tang Chen didn’t say anything. It could be said he silently agreed to it.
Lu Zhanbei was the main character in today’s banquet. Many people wanted to get closer to him. However, once Mr. Lu displayed his coldness, nobody dared to get close to him within a ten-meter radius.
“Feeling bored?”
“A little,” Lin Wanwan said truthfully.
“Let’s leave, then.”
“Can we? This banquet was organized because of you.”
“No worries.”
The two of them got in the car. They had not yet started the car when Shen Zhiyi climbed in with sharp eyes and agile movements.
She ignored someone’s handsome face, which had darkened. She leaned toward Lin Wanwan and gossiped, “Wanwan, is that peach-shaped eyes this?”
She bent her index finger.
