"Let go of me, I'm not sleepy, I can still drink."
"Okay, I'll drink with you, okay?"
Lu Cheng coaxed Chunxue in a good mood. When he put her on the bed, he found that she had already fallen asleep.
He sighed helplessly and tidied up the table before going downstairs.
After he left, a black car followed him out of the community. The dim light made the driver's face flicker and finally disappear into the night.
Three days later, at the Magnificent Brocade Hotel.
The news of Gu Tingzhou and Soong Yanran had already spread throughout the business circle. Although it was their second marriage, many people still came.
Compared to Gu Tingzhou's cold expression, Soong Yanran's smile was incomparably sweet. She held the red wine in her hand and kept greeting the guests. Just as she was chatting happily, someone suddenly exclaimed.
"Isn't that Director Gu's ex-wife? Why is she here too?"
"Yeah, who is that man? He's so handsome!"
Soong Yanran turned around and saw Chunxue holding Lu Cheng's arm.
Today she wore a rare dress, a long white dress that accentuated the unearthly beauty of her swan neck, and outshone her even without any valuable accessories.
Lu Cheng was also dressed in a white suit. His tall figure and handsome face made him look even more handsome than Gu Tingzhou.
As expected, the slut came and stole their limelight as soon as she arrived. Soong Yanran's face was instantly covered in a layer of frost.
She tidied up her expression and walked towards Chunxue and Ye Feng.
"Lawyer Lu, why are you here?"
At this time, a man in his forties waved at Lu Cheng.
Chunxue immediately pushed Lu Cheng away. "You must be a client. Go and greet him. I'll wait for you there."
She pointed to a corner.
Lu Cheng shrugged helplessly and said in a low voice, "Don't walk around. If there's anything, wait for me to deal with it."
Although it was unlikely that Chunxue would cause a ruckus, he was still worried.
Chunxue smiled and flicked his forehead. "Since when is it your turn to teach me a lesson? Hurry up and go."
Just as he sat down, a strange voice came from beside him.
"Isn't this Miss Chun? I didn't expect you to have the nerve to come."
Chunxue raised her head and looked at Soong Yanran, who was dressed up.
"Didn't Miss Song send me an invitation? You called me like I was your parent to ask for my opinion. How could I not come?"
Soong Yanran's face immediately turned green. She clenched her wine glass and sneered, "Chun, you only need to talk. After all, I'm the one who married Gu Tingzhou. Even if you're unhappy, you have to hold it in."
Chunxue shrugged and smiled. "I have a handsome man with me, she said. I'm young and dedicated. No matter how you look at it, I'm a hundred times better than Gu Tingzhou. Do you think an outdated man can affect me?"
Soong Yanran looked at her for a while and suddenly laughed.
"Alright, then watch how I marry him." After saying that, she waved to the distance. "Tingzhou, I'm here."
When she heard this name, Chunxue's breathing subconsciously tightened.
From afar, Gu Tingzhou, who had just put away his phone, was walking over.
His well-ironed suit, snow-white collar, and unsmiling handsome face instantly attracted the attention of countless female guests.
Even Chunxue couldn't help but be distracted. She seemed to have seen the scene of the two of them getting married again...
In the blink of an eye, Gu Tingzhou had already arrived in front of the table. Soong Yanran immediately wrapped around him like an octopus.
"Darling, is there anything wrong with the company?"
"No," Gu Tingzhou replied lightly. There was a hypocritical gentleness on his cold face.
"Baby, who is this woman? Is she your friend?"
Soong Yanran was stunned for a moment, but she quickly understood that Gu Tingzhou was mocking Chunxue. She immediately cooperated and said, "Of course not. Is a woman from an orphanage worthy of being my friend?"
Gu Tingzhou snorted coldly.
"If she isn't, then why is she here? Someone, bring this young lady out."
A few security guards immediately walked over. Then, a white figure quickly flashed and blocked Chunxue's path.
It was Lu Cheng, who had accompanied Chunxue here.
He looked at the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes behind him with a faint smile.
"Did I offend Mr. Song in some way? I gave him the invitation, yet I am making things difficult for him. If so, there is no need for us to continue working together."
Chunxue smiled warmly and happily took Lu Cheng's arm. This little brother of hers never failed at critical moments, and she was always assured of that.
"How could that be? There must be a misunderstanding."
The man was Soong Yanran's second uncle, Soong Guoqiang, and Lu Cheng happened to take over the company's legal counsel a few days ago. In order to win the lawsuit, he gave him a lot of materials. If the lawsuit was broken, he was afraid that his lawsuit would be ruined.
Gu Tingzhou narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at Chunxue's hand.
"There's no misunderstanding. They're not welcome here."
Soong Guoqiang had an awkward expression on his face, but he didn't know Chunxue. He didn't know her relationship with Gu Tingzhou and Lu Cheng, so he assumed that they had some sort of grudge against each other. Once again, he tried to smooth things over.
"Tingzhou, let me introduce you. This is Lawyer Lu."
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Gu Tingzhou.
"That's your Song Family's business. It has nothing to do with me. These two must leave."
"Tingzhou, this..."
Soong Guoqiang didn't know what to do. Every company had their own lawsuits, and he had hoped that he'd be able to use this opportunity to get along with Lu Cheng. However, he didn't expect Gu Tingzhou to not give him any face at all. A trace of gloominess flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Chunxue, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
She smiled and took Lu Cheng's arm. "Darling, she said accusingly. Didn't we agree to leave after taking a look? We still have a parent-teacher conference for our son later. You promised him that you'd come. If he doesn't see you, he'll be angry again."
Lu Cheng immediately looked at his watch and said with a smile, "I almost forgot if you didn't mention it, Mr. Song. That's all for today. We can talk about the company another day."
He gently and considerately helped Chunxue tidy up her gown, and his hand naturally slipped onto her waist.
Gu Tingzhou's gaze darkened. Putting aside Gu's mother's threat, he did think about letting go of Chunxue, but now he realized that he couldn't do it at all. Every time he saw Lu Cheng, he would go crazy with jealousy.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the door, Gu Tingzhou suddenly shook off Soong Yanran's hand and chased after them.
Outside the hotel, Lu Cheng looked at Chunxue worriedly.
"Big Sister, are you alright?"
Chunxue brushed her hair, which was blown around by the wind, and said with a faint smile, "Do I look like I'm in trouble?"
"Then I'll send you back."
"No need. It's rare to wear such a beautiful dress. I want to take a walk outside."
As soon as she finished speaking, her hand was grabbed.
