Chapter 151 What the Hell Have You Done After Winning Over Her Heart

Mu Zhi tried to withdraw into the room, but that would only make her look guilty.

Thus, she chose to step forward. Upon steadying herself, she held Mu Xiaomu and walked up to them. But they were all heading to the ground floor. So logically, there would only be one elevator.

Seeing Xiao Qingqing and Lu Jinye stand by the elevator door made Mu Zhi hesitate. She could not bear being in the same space as Lu Jinye.

Just as the elevator door opened, she carried Mu Xiaomu.

Then turned around, planning to find an excuse to go back to her room. However, Lu Jinye appeared to share the same idea.

He looked at Xiao Qingqing, and said, “I just remember that I might have left something behind in the room, let me get it.”

“Sure.”

While Xiao Qingqing was replying to Lu Jinye, Mu Zhi seized the opportunity and dashed into the elevator like a bolt of lightning with Mu Xiaomu in her hand.

The elevator door rolled shut. It started heading downwards gradually when Lu Jinye wheeled around once again, looking at the floor number to ascertain that the elevator had moved.

“It should be fine now, let’s go.”

He did not bother returning to the room, making no attempt to hide his blatant lying.

But Xiao Qingqing could not say anything. All she could do was quietly follow Lu Jinye into the elevator and left the hotel as a pair.

Why do I feel like Lu Jinye and Mu Zhi are behaving strangely today? Their behavior told Xiao Qingqing that they were trying to hide something from her.

Xiao Qingqing held her suspicion in her mind. She followed Lu Jinye into the plane, flew to City A, and returned to her home, but the questions that she kept within her continued to bother her!

However, as soon as they got home, Lu Jinye made his way straight to the company, saying that he had work to do.

Staring at him as he left the door, Xiao Qingqing was infuriated!

Slight! Slight! Slight!

When a man refused to put any effort into telling a lie, it meant that the woman had completely lost her place in his eyes! At that thought, Xiao Qingqing could feel every drop of blood within her boiling violently.

She refused to stay in that space for another second. Putting on a coat, she stormed out the door. But she was standing outside when she realized that there was nowhere she could go. After all… At this moment, the night had draped over the sky of City A. The city was illuminated by the glowing city lights.

It was a huge capital city, a city that never slept.

Xiao Qingqing suddenly recalled the reason she came to City A in the first place. There was a book that depicted City A as a city of endless dreams and miracles.

The streets were always lively at night. Regardless of how desolated one was, they would always be able to find a company in this city.

The city was filled with love.

However, Xiao Qingqing had no clue where she could find the book that introduced City A to her.

She had no idea where she could find the company she desired.

Did that mean she was a loser? © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

She wandered on the streets for a long while and ended up dialing Shen Mobo’s number.

…

Meanwhile, Lu Jinye did not go to the company. He lied through his teeth about going to work but hopped into his car and peevishly circled the city. After passing the same junction for the third time, he felt as though the driving did not help to fill the void inside him. In the end, he came to a bar.

The bar was owned by Xu Se’s family.

However, he did not inform Xu Se. Sitting by the bar, Lu Jinye ordered a drink, and started taking small sips at it.

Unfortunately, he had just finished his first one when Xu Se’s loud and mischievous voice arose from afar, “Yo, yo, isn’t that Young Master Shen?”

“Hang on, and you, Miss Qingqing?”

Lu Jinye did not turn around. He overheard Shen Mobo muttering, “Enough, cut your crap, is Jinye here?”

It had been a while since Xu Se noticed Lu Jinye’s presence, but Shen Mobo and Xiao Qingqing came into the bar just as he was planning to greet him.

Moreover, Shen Mobo had also spotted Lu Jinye when he stepped through the entrance.

After all, Lu Jinye was too stunning. It was difficult not to be noticed sitting in the middle of the crowd.

While Shen Mobo was approaching Lu Jinye, Xiao Qingqing immediately turned around to leave, “I need to go home.”

But Lu Jinye did not even flinch.

Upon glancing at Xiao Qingqing, Shen Mobo ordered his chauffeur to see Xiao Qingqing off.

After ascertaining that Xiao Qingqing had left, Shen Mobo walked up to Lu Jinye, grabbed an empty glass for himself, filled it with whisky, and gave Lu Jinye a toast.

“Isn’t it bleak to drink alone?”

Lu Jinye merely lifted his eyes to glimpse at Shen Mobo. He had no intention to entertain Shen Mobo, gulping down the entire glass, and helped himself to another one.

Shen Mobo followed suit.

Seeing that Lu Jinye and Shen Mobo were drinking grudgingly as though competing against each other, Xu Se walked up to them and cleverly said, “I’ve decided to skip tonight, I have a date. Please help yourselves, I will put your drinks on the tab! Hohoho, see ya!”

On top of his sinister words, he turned to the bartender and ordered, “Please don’t stop them from drinking, our monthly revenue falls on these guys!”

Following that, he headed out of the bar…

Lu Jinye and Shen Mobo did not bat an eye at Xu Se, carrying on with their drinking.

They had reached the bottom of the whiskey bottle, when Shen Mobo poured Lu Jinye a glass, saying, “Jinye, did I introduce you to Qingqing in the early years?”

Lu Jinye said nothing.

He knew Shen Mobo had more to say.

Thus, he waited for him to finish his sentence.

“If the Lu Family did not reject Xiao Qingqing, she would never move to the States, trying to prove herself, and your fall-out with Master Lu would not have happened.”

“If it weren’t for Lu Family’s disdain for Qingqing, she would continue to be your lover, and the both of you wouldn’t need to go through all the hardships.”

“Xiao Qingqing’s upbringing is different from us. She experienced wickedness since she was young. She had nobody to rely on, so she must rely on herself to progress!”

After finishing those words, Shen Mobo saw that Lu Jinye continued to keep mum. He sniggered scornfully, “What you currently possess is something that others are dying to win over. How dare you bloody not treasure her?!”

Shen Mobo suddenly smashed his glass on the ground, shattering it into what seemed like millions of pieces scattered across the floor. He glared at Lu Jinye with bloodshot eyes, “I bloody love Xiao Qingqing too! And look at you, what the hell have you done after winning over her heart?!”

The surrounding crowd and the bartender were flummoxed.

Meanwhile, Lu Jinye stared at Shen Mobo with an apathetic gaze, and asked monotonously, “If you like her, why won’t you go after her? Who are you to rebuke me?”

His listless attitude challenged Shen Mobo’s limits!
