"What? How could this be?"
It had taken Chen Shanshan so much effort to find two suspects. How could such an embarrassing mistake happen?
"Mr. Chen, it seems that you didn't do enough research on our company before planning to cooperate with us."
Qin Zhen didn't have much patience for this father - daughter pair in front of her.
"I... Well... This might be a misunderstanding."
While saying this, Chen Yuanshan waved his hands, trying to explain.
But Mrs. Qin noticed the bloodstain on his hand.
"This is indeed a misunderstanding. Maybe you hit my son accidentally, but your daughter's frame - up was clearly intentional. I think there may be no need for cooperation between us. Ladies and gentlemen, let's go inside and have a drink. There's no need to waste time on unworthy people."
Mrs. Qin's words were clearly pointed. After saying that, she led the crowd inside.
The events of this evening would be enough for people to talk about for a while.
Those left standing there looked at each other in dismay.
Chen Yuanshan glared at Chen Shanshan, feeling extremely disappointed.
And Lu Luochen couldn't help but smile.
"Shanshan, if you want to frame someone next time, please do your homework in advance. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing if another such joke happens."
After Lu Luochen said that, he took Wen Sining and turned to leave.
Chen Yuanshan clenched his fists tightly. He was initially so angry that he wanted to slap Chen Shanshan.
But considering that she was his own daughter, he managed to suppress his anger.
"Don't do such stupid things again!"
He angrily threw out this sentence and then turned away.
Chen Shanshan, left standing there, was full of grievances.
The idea wasn't even hers. Why did everyone have to laugh at her?
Just thinking about Yun Chuchu made her furious. She swore that she would never believe that stupid woman again.
The crowd returned to the venue and mocked the earlier events for a long time.
The Chen father - daughter pair was too ashamed to stay, but this incident actually won Lu Luochen a big cooperation deal from Mrs. Qin.
"Mr. Lu, on such a happy day, I'd like to invite you to dance. Mrs. Lu shouldn't mind, right?"
Just as everyone was chatting cheerfully, Qin Zhen suddenly spoke. Her charming eyes made people feel a bit flustered.
Just as Lu Luochen was about to decline, his wife pushed him forward.
Lu Luochen was stunned, completely caught off guard.
"Of course I don't mind."
Wen Sining smiled gracefully, and there was not a single flaw in her smile.
"Then, if that's the case, come on..."
Qin Zhen was extremely proud, as if she had just won a great battle.
Lu Luochen was indeed reluctant, but considering the future cooperation between the two companies and that dancing a single dance wasn't a big deal, he agreed.
The two of them held hands and walked to the center of the dance floor.
The handsome man and the beautiful woman were extremely eye - catching. People around them subconsciously made way for them.
"Luochen, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to get married so early."
When they were alone, Qin Zhen showed a very affectionate side.
In fact, the two of them were old friends. They had a very intimate past when studying abroad.
But for Lu Luochen, that was already in the past.
Now, there was only one person in his heart.
"Hmm? What?"
Lu Luochen was concentrating on the rhythm of the music, moving forward and backward like an emotionless robot.
He silently prayed that this dance would end soon so that he could quickly return to his wife's side.
But this attitude made Qin Zhen dissatisfied.
"Don't you remember what happened between us before?"
Seeing his absent - minded look, Qin Zhen was filled with anger.
"Of course I remember. After all, we studied under the same master. I really should thank you, my old classmate. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to contact Mrs. Qin."
There was a sense of distance in Lu Luochen's words, and even his dancing posture kept a considerable distance.
Qin Zhen was suddenly touched: "So you only see me as an old classmate?"
Lu Luochen nodded: "Of course."
His answer was so natural that Qin Zhen almost couldn't handle it.
"You and that Miss Wen don't seem to be a perfect match. Why did you choose such a woman?"
Qin Zhen was a bit unwilling.
She always thought that if she had returned to China with Lu Luochen back then, would the two of them be standing together now?
Lu Luochen was really confused by this question.
After a long time, he smiled absent - mindedly.
At that moment, his mind was full of Wen Sining.
No matter what Wen Sining was like, in his heart, she was the cutest.
"You probably won't understand."
He simply replied, completely pushing Qin Zhen out of this relationship.
Qin Zhen couldn't bear his straightforward preference. She stumbled and almost sprained her ankle.
Lu Luochen instinctively reached out to support her and pulled her back.
After steadying her, he quickly let go.
"Are you okay?" Lu Luochen's words showed no trace of anxiety. It sounded like just a casual inquiry from an old friend.
Qin Zhen lost her previous enthusiasm. She felt as if the fire in her heart had been extinguished, and she couldn't muster any more emotions.
The two of them finished the rest of the dance. It seemed normal, and even the two of them thought so.
Only Wen Sining, standing on the side, felt as if there was a ball of cotton in her heart.
She had just seen with her own eyes how some people were chatting and laughing.
She knew that this wasn't the time to be jealous, but Lu Luochen seemed to be smiling too happily.
But in such a situation, she couldn't lose her temper. So she just kept drinking.
By the time Lu Luochen came back, Wen Sining's cheeks were already flushed, and she was a bit dizzy when walking.
"Sining, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Luochen looked worried, completely different from his cold appearance just now.
Wen Sining shook her head with a smile. Her heart felt a bit bitter, making it hard for her to speak.
"I'm fine. You can go and dance some more."
