Chapter 564: Returning a Round

Ye Xuan took a sip of tea and said calmly, “What’s the hurry? I don’t care about your relationship matters as long as it doesn’t affect your work. Anyway, these things discussed online are making you more and more popular. There’s nothing bad about this. When it’s time to explain, someone will explain for you.”
Lu Zhen wasn’t sure if the person Ye Xuan was talking about was Song Jia. After hanging up, she took a deep breath and found another number. After calling Song Jia, the call was quickly picked up.
Song Jia’s low and magnetic voice stimulated Lu Zhen’s eardrums. “What’s wrong?”
The man’s tone was natural and familiar. This tone brought about a sense of intimacy. Lu Zhen realized that she seemed to be getting more and more sensitive now. In the past, she would definitely not have such a complicated feeling. Her throat was a little itchy. She said dryly, “Nothing. Are you busy?”
“I’m not busy. Why are you looking for me? I’ll be back in a while,” the man said calmly.
The more Lu Zhen listened, the more she felt that something was wrong. Why did it seem more ambiguous? She hurriedly said, “It’s nothing. I just want to ask you. Now that the netizens are paying more and more attention to me, what should I do?”
Lu Zhen heard a slight sound from the other side. It seemed that the man had closed the folder or information.
“What do you want to do?” Song Jia asked gently.
Lu Zhen opened her mouth but could not say anything. If she’d known what to do, she wouldn’t have looked for him. Besides, wasn’t he the one who’d started this mess? “l wanted to ask you what you think,” Lu Zhen said stiffly.
“Why don’t we come out and have a chat? I’m about to get off work.”
Lu Zhen looked at the time. It was still early. She hesitated for a few seconds and asked, “Where are we going?”
Lu Zhen had a feeling that they might talk about something else this time. If it was in the past, she would definitely not agree to go out to meet Song Jia. But now, her thoughts and attitude have changed. She really couldn’t stand the change in Song Jia anymore. She wanted to have a good chat with Song Jia. If only she could make their relationship return to how it was before through hints.
However, Lu Zhen also knew that these thoughts in her heart might be an excuse. Even she herself could not explain her true intentions. Before leaving, Lu Zhen picked out a few sets of clothes. Although the effect of whatever she wore was not bad, she still changed into several styles. In the end, she chose a mature suit.
Lu Zhen sized up the woman in the mirror. She had lived her entire life. Logically speaking, she was older than Song Jia, but the previous few times, she had suffered a little from Song Jia and he had the initiative.
This time, she wanted to win a round, so she dressed up more maturely. This way, she might appear more domineering and make Song Jia not dare to bully her like that again.
Lu Zhen chose a high-saturation burgundy lipstick. After applying it thickly, the color was so rich that it was a little black and extremely aggressive, She did not look like someone to be trifled with.
Hmph, let’s see if he still dares to mess around this time.
Lu Zhen closed the lipstick lid with force, put on her coat, put on her thin velvet knitted hat, and went out.
The place Song Jia booked was a bar. He said that the bar was opened by his friend and was relatively private. The drinks inside were also not bad.
Jiang Fei had found a chauffeur for Lu Zhen some time ago. Lu Zhen usually did not look for this chauffeur and basically took the company’s car. Now that she was out to meet the man in the middle of the night, she could use the driver Jiang Fei had hired.
When she reached the entrance of the bar, Lu Zhen got out. The name of the bar was “Weekend”. It sounded quite relaxing, as if entering this bar would welcome a beautiful vacation. The bar was not big. As Song Jia had already greeted the staff, the moment she entered, a staff member led Lu Zhen to a private room on the second floor.
After Lu Zhen sat down, Song Jia pushed open the door and entered not long after.
Song Jia had already taken off his suit and was only wearing a shirt and tie. He looked very formal. Lu Zhen handed him a glass of water politely. Song Jia took the water, took a sip, and put it down. Then, he reached out and tugged at his tie. The neat tie immediately became loose, and the man’s temperament also became casual and frivolous.
Lu Zhen didn’t dare to look at Song Jia’s slightly open collar. Her gaze shifted to Song Jia’s shoulder. Why did she feel that the air had suddenly become a little hot?
Lu Zhen was about to speak when an attendant knocked on the door and came in. He put down two drinks. “Mr. Song, this is a new product. Our boss knows that this is your first time bringing a girl here and specially asked me to send it over..”
