Lu Zhen had looked into the man’s eyes just now and knew that the man was deliberately helping her out, so the moment he passed, Lu Zhen followed him. Jin Zhan reached out to stop her, but Sun Xiao slapped his hand, and the back of his hand instantly turned red.

“Sun Xiao!” Jin Zhan shouted.

Sun Xiao wasn’t afraid of him and made a face at Jin Zhan.

“Scumbag!”

Just as the three of them were about to walk out of the restaurant, they bumped into the woman who was looking for Jin Zhan.

The woman looked around, then found Jin Zhan and was about to wave. But when she turned around, she saw the man walking in front of Lu Zhen.

In an instant, the woman’s face paled and she stuttered.

“Assistant Song…”

“Yes,” the man replied calmly. He looked at the woman with an indifferent gaze.

“Assistant Song, are you here to eat too? The food here is indeed delicious.”

“Lin Wan, prepare the penalty fee. Contact Manager Zhao tomorrow to resign.”

The man’s simple words cut off Lin Wan’s future path.

Lin Wan’s face was pale. She wanted to go forward and grab the man’s sleeve, but she was stopped by the man’s cold gaze.

“Assistant Song, I didn’t. I just…”

Lin Wan wanted to say something to beg for mercy, but her mind was in a mess and she couldn’t organize her words.

“Get lost.”

The man’s voice sounded calm, but his intimidating aura made people have no choice but to submit.

Lu Zhen stood quietly behind the man and listened to the show.

In her previous life, Lin Wan was Jin Zhan’s lover in private, but on the surface, she relied on Jia Le’s resources to have a smooth-sailing acting career. In this life, before Lin Wan became famous, she was beaten back to her original state.

The tables had turned!

Lu Zhen pondered over it, but her expression remained calm on the surface. However, the joyful look on her face revealed that she was in a good mood.

Sun Xiao followed behind and looked at the two of them. For some reason, she felt that the two of them were surprisingly compatible.

After leaving the restaurant, Lu Zhen thanked the man, and the man handed her a business card.

“If you want to jump ship one day, you can consider Jia Le first.”

Lu Zhen looked at the business card and smiled. “Mr. Song, why are you suddenly saying that? I have no intention of jumping ship!”

The man looked at Lu Zhen meaningfully and left without answering her question.

“Weirdo.”

After the man left, Lu Zhen muttered.

“Sister Zhenzhen, who is he? He’s so handsome! How did you two meet?”

Sun Xiao asked Lu Zhen excitedly.

Lu Zhen stared at the business card dazedly.

“Song Jia, the assistant of the chairman of Jia Le.”

Sun Xiao exclaimed. A chairman’s assistant was very different from an actor’s assistant. The chairman’s assistant was the company’s senior manager. He had to have the work ethic and professionalism of a deputy general manager.

So how did Zhenzhen get together with Jia Le Entertainment?

Lu Zhen’s head hurt. She had thought that she wouldn’t have any more interactions with those two people, but who knew that she would bump into them while eating?

“It’s complicated.”

Lu Zhen wanted to tell Sun Xiao about what had happened previously, but this wasn’t what Sun Xiao was concerned about at all. Before she could finish her sentence, she heard Sun Xiao speak excitedly.

“Sister Zhenzhen, Song Jia is too handsome! I was too embarrassed to look at him just now. Do you know? When I first saw him, I actually thought that this person was an immortal! How can he be so handsome?!”

Sun Xiao was so excited that she kept chattering in Lu Zhen’s ear. However, seeing this model, Lu Zhen felt better.

It seemed that it wasn’t that she was infatuated, but that this man’s looks were so outstanding that everyone who saw him fell for him. Of course, Lin Wan, who had been frightened by his intimidating aura just now, wasn’t included.

“Sister Zhenzhen, why don’t you dump Jin Zhan and get together with Assistant Song?”

Sun Xiao’s careless words made Lu Zhen rub her temples. She had only met this man twice, so why was she with him? Besides, this man called Song Jia wasn’t as simple as he seemed.

In the afternoon, Lu Zhen brought Sun Xiao to the bank and the mall again.

She had opened an account for herself in the bank. Previously, all the money she earned was transferred to Lu He and Wu Yu’s accounts. Now, she had to make some plans for herself.

At the mall, Lu Zhen bought a few clothes for Sun Xiao.

Sun Xiao was won over by just a few clothes. She blinked her big eyes and said with tears in her eyes that she was so good to her, so she would be by her side all her life.

Lu Zhen laughed at her. She stayed by Lu Zhen’s side and refused to leave.

If Sun Xiao had been by her side in her previous life, she wouldn’t have fallen to such a state!
