Su Mu was Lu Shen’s father’s assistant. He would follow by Lu Zheng’s side at all times. As soon as he entered, he knew that the designer of this place was extremely meticulous. The capital always lacked water, and the concept of this clubhouse was ‘flowing water’.

Qiang Ersi finally invited Lu Shen out tonight. There was a piece of land in the suburbs of the capital that had not been developed. As the city expanded, its market value had increased many times.

But now, that piece of land had been firmly held in the hands of the Lu family.

Qiang Ersi’s family could be considered influential in the capital. This time, they were the first to make their move. Now, facing Lu Shen, Qiang Ersi tried his best to appear neutral. Although he was smiling, his eyes were closely observing Lu Shen’s reaction.

This Second Young Master of the Lu Family seemed to be even more composed than the rumors said. No matter what kind of conditions he offered, he could not decipher Lu Shen’s emotions. There was no reaction at all.

This was the first time Qiang Ersi felt a sense of oppression on such occasions.

Ling Youyou sat next to Qiang Ersi. She had accompanied Qiang Ersi many times for social engagements. However, today, when she learned that the person for social engagement was Lu Shen, she was elated.

Especially since she always felt that from the moment she entered, Lu Shen’s gaze would occasionally fall on her face. Ling Youyou suddenly became very nervous.

Qiang Ersi naturally noticed that Lu Shen would sometimes look at Ling Youyou.

He felt that it was strange. Everyone knew that Lu Shen did not accept any female companions around him, so he did not call other women over today. However, it seemed that the rumors could not be taken seriously. Otherwise, Lu Shen would not have paid any attention to Ling Youyou beside him. It seemed that men were still men after all. They could not escape the allure of women.

Qiang Ersi felt as if he had found a key point. He immediately ordered, “Youyou, go and get Director Lu a glass of water.”

“Okay.” Ling Youyou smiled and was about to pour water.

However, just as she stood up, Lu Shen, who had not said much all this while, suddenly said, “No need.”

The rejection was sudden and direct. Ling Youyou’s hand was still frozen in mid-air. In the end, she could only sit down resentfully.

Lu Shen’s gaze moved away from Ling Youyou’s face. He recalled the photo that Xu Yi had shown him that night. Xu Yi had naively asked if she was prettier than the woman in the photo.

It was the same person. Although there was a slight similarity in their facial features, she was still miles apart when compared to Xu Yi.

He recalled that Xu Yi had even said that something unpleasant had happened. Lu Shen’s expression gradually turned cold.

Su Mu was aware of Lu Shen’s every reaction. He knew that tonight’s negotiation had gone cold. It was obvious that Lu Shen’s current attitude was not good.

In order to liven up the atmosphere, Qiang Ersi began to talk about everyday things.

“Lu, how do you feel about the capital? The weather here is dry, unlike Port City, which is close to the sea…”

Ling Youyou could not get a word in edgewise. When she heard this, she immediately warmed up. “Yes, I went to Port City once. The air is really good, you…”

Before Ling Youyou could finish her words, Lu Shen immediately stood up. It seemed that he could not bear to listen to another word Ling Youyou said.

Su Mu immediately stood up as well. He knew what Lu Shen meant and he said to Qiang Ersi, “Goodbye.”

Qiang Ersi was also anxious. He thought that Ling Youyou’s words had offended Lu Shen. He glared at Ling Youyou, who was so frightened that her face was pale. Then, he hurriedly chased after Lu Shen. “Director Lu, Director Lu.”

However, the bodyguards had already entered and blocked Qiang Ersi.

Weilan Star Court.

Xu Yi’s WuChat message was like a stone sinking into the sea. Lu Shen had not replied at all. Just as she was about to go wash up and sleep, she heard footsteps outside.

She did not need to think to know who it was. In order to express her dissatisfaction, Xu Yi deliberately ignored Lu Shen.

Lu Shen was not blind. He naturally noticed her temper and took the initiative to say, “Xu Yi.”

Xu Yi asked directly, “Why aren’t you replying to my messages?”

Lu Shen was a little puzzled after hearing that. He took out his phone and opened WuChat. He saw the message that Xu Yi sent three hours ago.

Lu Shen looked at the message, then looked at Xu Yi, and then replied, “I don’t look at my phone very often.”

This answer was too perfunctory. How could people not look at their phones? Xu Yi held back her anger. She really wanted to shout at Lu Shen.

“Oh,” she managed to squeeze a word.

Lu Shen saw that Xu Yi had asked him when he would be back in the message. He asked, “Is there something you need me for?”

Xu Yi was still angry. She straightened her neck and said, “It’s nothing much. I want to borrow something from you. I know you have a horse farm, and I want to borrow a horse. It’s for a magazine shoot.”

After Xu Yi said that, she immediately added, “If it’s not easy for you to borrow it, that’s fine too. I’ll…”

Lu Shen interrupted, “Sure.”

Xu Yi blurted, “Huh?”

Lu Shen said, “I said okay.”

Xu Yi did not expect him to be so straightforward. He did not even ask in detail. Her eyes instantly lit up with joy. “Really?”

“Yes.” Lu Shen nodded. “However….”
