Song Jia could feel Lu Zhen’s discomfort. When he saw the netizens’ comments, he wondered if he should explain, but in the end, he didn’t say anything. No matter what he said, it was not appropriate because he was the one who sent the gift.
At that time, after he saw Lu Zhen’s performance, he briefly fell into anxiety and uneasiness. He imagined Lu Zhen liking someone else one day, and the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became. After Lu Zhen’s performance ended, he saw the three directors light up the lights for her. For a moment, he was happy for her.
The two emotions intertwined in his heart, causing him to do this without thinking about the consequences. Song Jia actually didn’t expect the netizens to compare the person who sent the gift to Lu Zhen’s boyfriend. Perhaps it was because the difference in their personalities was too stark, but the discussions had always been very popular. Even today, when he logged into his account, he could still see people commenting under his account. Some people felt that he and Lu Zhen would break up soon, while others supported him.
Song Jia had mixed feelings when he saw these comments. The netizens definitely did not know that these two very separate personalities were actually him. Just as Song Jia was thinking about these things and in a daze, he heard Lu Zhen’s voice from the phone. “Do you have time to have a meal together?” Song Jia was stunned. Lu Zhen invited him to dinner?
On the other end of the line, Lu Zhen really couldn’t think of any other way to express her gratitude to Song Jia.
Song Jia had given her a chance to compete for the role in Samir’s new movie and even sent three million yuan to support her during the live-stream. She had to thank Song Jia for what he had done for her.
However, she couldn’t think of anything she could do for Song Jia for the time being. Could it be that she had to return the three million yuan to Song Jia? Song Jia definitely wouldn’t accept it. He wasn’t short of money. If Lu Zhen really did that, she would seem too lacking in EQ.
However, she didn’t find any information from Ye Xuan and couldn’t find any opportunity to return the favor. After thinking about it, she decided to use the most traditional method. The culture of Chinese people was broad and profound. There was nothing that a meal could not solve. If there was, they would eat a few more meals.
Song Jia didn’t look at the itinerary that his secretary had placed on his desk and replied, “Okay, you can arrange the time and place. Let me know when you’ve decided.” After hanging up, Song Jia was still in a daze. A moment later, faint joy and anticipation enveloped his heart. He instantly felt that the three million yuan was worth it.
The next afternoon, Lu Zhen told Song Jia the address of the restaurant in advance.
Song Jia changed into light and casual clothes and drove to the cafeteria. There were not many people outside. Lu Zhen sat in her seat and flipped through the menu. The average consumption of this restaurant was not low, but it was not famous. She only found it after reading several guides online.
However, the small number of people suited her needs. She didn’t want to be photographed eating with Song Jia again. If it was trending again, countless fans would probably mock her for using her relationship to market her popularity and say that she was shameless.
As she flipped through the menu, Lu Zhen saw someone walking over from the corner of her eye. She looked up and saw Song Jia. Song Jia was wearing a simple black shirt and gray pants today. He was less cold and more relaxed.
Their eyes met. Song Jia nodded slightly and smiled. “How did you find this restaurant? It’s so remote.’
Song Jia’s natural tone made Lu Zhen’s nervousness ease a lot. She answered honestly, “I read many guides and was recommended by a netizen.”
Song Jia narrowed his eyes slightly and was a little excited. Lu Zhen had actually prepared so much for dinner with him. Actually, Song Jia knew very well that even if Lu Zhen wasn’t eating with him and was treating Ye Xuan or Bei Mu to a meal, she would still prepare seriously. However, this didn’t stop him from feeling happy.
After sitting down, Lu Zhen handed the tablet to Song Jia. “I ordered two signature dishes. See what you like to eat?”
Song Jia ordered another pearl milk foie gras and boneless carp porridge. After the food was served, Lu Zhen tasted it. It was indeed not bad. It was worth the price. She secretly looked up at Song Jia.
The man was wearing a black shirt, and his sleeves were casually rolled up, revealing a simple and classic watch. Even though there were not many signs that could represent his identity, he still exuded a noble aura. When he lowered his head, the high nose bridge and handsome brow line became more obvious..
