Chapter 372 Touching Her Is Touching Me
"Of course." Lu Jie immediately understood and a sweet and well-behaved smile quickly bloomed on her face. That smile was as bright as a flower blooming in spring.
"Young Master Zheng is the most bright and clear-minded person. If he says he is unintentional, then he means it."
As she spoke in a soft tone, she secretly glanced at Zheng Xuan out of the corner of her eye. There was a subtle hint of ridicule in her eyes, as if silently telling Zheng Xuan, let's see how this ends.
Zheng Xuan noticed Lu Jie's slightly provocative look and felt his temples throbbing. He was secretly annoyed. He knew very well that this damn girl was deliberately adding fuel to the fire!
A barely perceptible chill flashed across Su Heng's eyes. He pursed his lips slightly, his voice revealing obvious displeasure as he said, "Let's talk another day."
After saying that, he slightly turned sideways and turned his head to look at Xiaojie. His eyes instantly became gentle and concerned, and he asked softly, "Shall we go? I'll send someone to take you there."
"I couldn't ask for more!" Lu Jie's eyes lit up instantly, and her face was filled with a look of relief.
At this moment, she just wanted to escape from this place that made her upset.
Zheng Rui stood there, watching Lu Jie and Su Heng leave together, the jealousy and resentment in her heart surging like a raging tide.
She clenched her teeth so tightly that they were almost broken, and her eyes were burning with rage.
Zheng Xuan stood aside, gently shaking the red wine glass in his hand, and his stern profile was reflected on the wall of the glass.
His eyes were deep and firm, and his voice was low but full of unquestionable determination: "Remember, if you touch her, you touch me."
"We'll see." Zheng Rui sneered through her teeth. She clenched her fists tightly, and her manicured nails dug deep into her palms.
The night wind brought with it a few subtle chills, gently brushing across Lu Jie's exposed skin. She unconsciously closed her arms, with a hint of unintentional charm in her eyes.
The next second, a suit jacket that was still warm was gently draped over her shoulders, carrying a calm aura that was unique to Su Heng.
She looked up, winked at Su Heng, and made a playful face. "Thank you so much for what you did just now! I didn't expect you to be so loyal! By the way, why are you here too? Zheng Xuan didn't mention you were coming!"
Su Heng's eyes were indifferent, yet they concealed an imperceptible tenderness. "I didn't see you when I got home. They told me." He paused and added, "The old man seemed quite satisfied with you."
"Of course!" Lu Jie raised her chin proudly. "My relationship with Mr. Su is fantastic! If you have any problems in the future, just come to me and I'll help you deal with him!"
Su Heng glanced at her sideways, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips. "Your ability to fool people is pretty good. Okay, it's getting late. I'll take you home."
"Okay!" Lu Jie responded happily and walked towards Su Heng's car side by side.
At this moment, a burst of hurried and messy footsteps came from behind, breaking the tranquility of the night.
Lu Jie stopped and turned to look, only to see Zheng Xuan appear behind them, breathless, his eyes fixed on her. She quickly tugged at Su Heng's clothes and whispered, "Hurry up!"
Su Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of joking in his tone: "He has come here to chase you, you should respond out of courtesy, unless you have something to hide." After saying that, he nodded, signaling Lu Jie to face Zheng Xuan.
Lu Jie gave Su Heng a forced smile and said, "If someone really dies later, you must remember to call the police." After saying that, she took a deep breath and slowly walked towards Zheng Xuan.
"Is there something? Say it quickly, don't waste everyone's time." Her tone was cold and distant.
Zheng Xuan's eyes flickered as he looked at her. His throat moved, and his voice was slightly unnatural: "You...wait for my call."
Lu Jie looked at him with amusement: "I only agreed to pretend to be your girlfriend, but I'm not your 24-year-old babysitter who has to be there whenever you call!"
Zheng Xuan frowned and looked at her: "That's not what I meant, you should know..."
Lu Jie interrupted him without hesitation: "I really don't know! However, I will do my best to cooperate and play my role well in the coming days, so you can rest assured."
The corners of Zheng Xuan's mouth twitched twice: "Should I say thank you?"
Lu Jie shrugged, a cold smile curling up at the corner of her mouth: "But, as for your sister, I'm really becoming more and more interested in her. I want more opportunities to spend time with her!"
Zheng Xuan looked at her and sighed helplessly: "I really don't know if it's right for me to find you."
This woman is too aggressive. If both sides don't get hurt, one will die and the other will get injured. He is really having a headache now.
Lu Jie looked up at him with a hint of impatience in her tone: "If there is nothing else, I'll leave first. I have to go back early to watch the live broadcast!" After that, she turned around and ran back quickly.
Su Heng put his hands on the steering wheel and glanced at her through the rearview mirror: "What's wrong? Did that kid make you angry again?"
While fastening her seatbelt, Lu Jie nonchalantly said, "No, I gave him a vivid lesson!"
Su Heng raised the corners of his lips, and said with a hint of ridicule: "You stay in the Su family and stop causing trouble. If you have any problems, your mother will blame me."
Lu Jie had a mysterious smile on her face: "Oh, don't worry, I'm doing well!"
Su Heng nodded: "That's good."
The next day, Lu Jie received a mysterious call.
"Mission?" she asked doubtfully.
"Well, come to my place on time at 11 o'clock tonight, and I will send you the address right away." The other party's voice was low and cold, leaving no room for doubt.
"But, it's so late, what kind of mission could it be?" Lu Jie was full of vigilance. In the middle of the night, it must be a thief or a thief!
"Don't ask so many questions. Just come when I tell you to." After the other party said that, he hung up the phone without hesitation.
The night was so quiet that only the sound of one's own breathing could be heard. Zheng Rui returned to the house and subconsciously glanced towards Zheng Xuan's room as she went upstairs. Surprisingly, she found that the light was still on there!
Her eyes lit up, and she was about to push the door open when it opened. Zheng Xuan was standing at the door. He had just taken a shower and was wearing a clean white bathrobe that outlined his muscular body.
Zheng Xuan stared at her, his eyes aloof. His muscular body was wrapped in a pristine white bathrobe, its collar open to his chest, revealing a large expanse of bronzed pectoral muscles, adorned with glistening water droplets. Zheng Rui's gaze was drawn to him.
