Chapter 30
Why Are You Still Getting A Woman To Treat You?
“Youyi, look at the second trending topic on Weibo.” Zhong Xiaohui sent another WeChat notification. It seemed that Jiang Youyi was slow to realize many things. She took out her cell phone and turned on Weibo, thinking that it was her or Lu Yunxiao who was trending again.
Unexpectedly, the person who was trending this time was Xu Yuning. He posted a long Weibo post half an hour ago—
[Hello, everyone. I’m Xu Yuning. First of all, I’m sorry that I’ve taken up public resources during this period of time because of the mishandling of my personal feelings. I didn’t want to say much at first, but some rumors have already spread like wildfire, causing trouble for me and the people around me. Hence, I want to explain to everyone that I’ve known Jiang Youyi for five years. I know best what kind of woman she is. Although I’m very regretful that the wedding didn’t go through, it’s definitely not like what was uploaded online. Jiang Youyi didn’t like another new man and betrayed me. As for President Lu’s response, Youyi has been single since she broke up with me, so I think it’s very normal for anyone to pursue her or express goodwill to her. Although I’ve separated from Youyi, I still have expectations for this relationship. If there’s a chance, I still hope to woo her back. Other than explaining on Weibo today, I also implore everyone to stop slandering Madam Jiang Youyi. No one knows her better than me. Thank you all for your concern—Xu Yuning.]
Xu Yuning’s response could be said to be sincere and affectionate, instantly gaining many female fans. Now, the netizens all felt that he was a responsible and good man. Moreover, after his explanation, there were fewer people scolding Jiang Youyi online.
Jiang Youyi looked at the screen in a daze, her emotions indescribably complicated. She did not know what the Xu Family wanted.
“Can’t forget your ex-boyfriend?” Lu Yunxiao glanced at her phone and said meaningfully.
“No, I won’t play with the same man twice.” Jiang Youyi put away her phone.
“It seems like Xu Yuning still has feelings for you,” Lu Yunxiao suddenly said.
“I have no right to interfere with what he does, but nothing he does can change my decision.”
“Do you like Japanese food?” Lu Yunxiao suddenly asked.
“I quite like it.”
Lu Yunxiao glanced at her and said to the driver, “Turn around and go to Jinghe.”
“Alright, President Lu.”
The car turned around in front and headed towards Ocean City’s most famous Japanese restaurant, Jinghe.
20 minutes later, Jiang Youyi was already sitting in the private room of the Japanese restaurant, eating salmon and staring blankly at the hot Sukiyaki pot in front of her. She had completely forgotten about the interlude just now.
The two of them had not spoken a word since they entered the private room until Jiang Youyi suddenly said curiously, “Lu Yunxiao, you said before that you’ve never been in a relationship. Are you still a blank piece of paper?”
“…” Lu Yunxiao.
“I think the report also said that you’re always single. Then how do you usually solve your physiological needs?”
“Jiang Youyi.” Lu Yunxiao put down the chopsticks in his hand and took out a tissue to wipe the corners of his mouth. “Do I know you very well? Don’t you think it’s presumptuous to ask such a question?”
“I’m sorry.” Jiang Youyi pursed her lips. “I thought we were all adults. It’s fine to ask this.”
A certain big shot was so angry that he was caught in between laughter and tears. In the end, he could only say coldly, “Eat your food.”
Jiang Youyi did not expect to meet Lu Yunxiao every few days after breaking off the engagement. They had not seen each other for the past 20 years, but now, the two of them could sit together and eat and chat. Life was really strange.
When they were almost done eating, the two of them walked to the front desk.
“Hello, sir. You and this lady have spent a total of 2,560 yuan. May I ask if you want to swipe your card or cash?”
Jiang Youyi fiddled with her clean nails in boredom behind him. Anyway, this was not the first time she had freeloaded.
The next second, she heard Lu Yunxiao say, “This lady will pay the bill.”
“Huh?” Jiang Youyi looked up in confusion. “I’ll foot the bill?”
“Alright, Madam. Do you want to swipe your card or cash? This is the details of your expenditure this time. Please take a look.” The waiter nodded slightly and handed the bill to Jiang Youyi.
Jiang Youyi glared at Lu Yunxiao. “Aren’t you the one treating me?”
“When did I say my treat?”
Jiang Youyi:
I don’t think he said that.
He only asked her in the car if she liked Japanese food. But he’s the president of a corporation! The richest man! Why was a woman treating him to a meal?!
