Chapter 67: Lucille

Translator: Henyee Translations       Editor: Henyee Translations

After being reborn, Lu Zhen thought that her state of mind was already very firm. In fact, she was rarely nervous or excited because of anyone or anything. However, she felt that her muscles were tense. The hand that Song Jia was holding didn’t seem to belong to her anymore.

What was she nervous about? It was just a dance with her future boss’s assistant!

“Are you nervous? I’m not.” Lu Zhen forced a smile. “It’s just that I haven’t danced in a long time and I’m not familiar with it.”

Song Jia looked down at Lu Zhen. From this angle, he could see Lu Zhen’s long eyelashes and high nose bridge.

And Lu Zhen was only 18 years old.

Song Jia’s slender fingers suddenly moved down and pressed on the artery on Lu Zhen’s wrist. Her rapid pulse passed through Lu Zhen’s delicate and smooth skin to Song Jia’s fingertips. He smiled casually. “Your pulse is also beating very fast. It’s already over 100.”

Why can’t this man let her go! Lu Zhen roared in her heart.

Lu Zhen said dryly, “Mr. Song, you know Chinese medicine?”

“A little.”

“We’re just dancing. Aren’t you crossing the line by grabbing my wrist?” Lu Zhen mustered her courage and looked up at Song Jia.

“Yes, it’s indeed not good.” Song Jia stared into her eyes and slowly let go of her wrist. He said in a low and hoarse voice, “I’m sorry.”

When Lu Zhen heard his voice, her heart felt like it had been struck by something. She lowered her head, and the courage that had just appeared disappeared again.

After a dance, Lu Zhen felt as if all her strength had been exhausted. She would never dance with Song Jia again. It was simply torture!

“Ms. Lucille should appear soon.” Lu Zhen reluctantly changed the topic.

“Yes.” Song Jia crossed his arms leisurely in front of his chest. “You want to get Aurora’s endorsement?”

“I do, but it’s impossible for the time being.” Lu Zhen shook her head, but her tone was not too disappointed. Instead, it was very calm.

Song Jia glanced at Lu Zhen, a little surprised that Lu Zhen was rational and calm.

From the information, Lu Zhen was not even 18 years old this year. She should still be an innocent and romantic girl, but she was even more rational and calm than many old people. She knew very well what was hers and what was not hers for the time being.

Song Jia had only seen such qualities from Guan Yun, an S+ female artist from

Jia Le.

And Lu Zhen was only 18 years old.

Song Jia knew that he had not misjudged her this time. This girl in front of him definitely had a bright future.

Lu Zhen looked into the distance and saw Ms. Lucille appear with a few people in suits. Seeing the gown Ms. Lucille was wearing, Lu Zhen revealed a relaxed smile. As expected, she was right.

“Oh, my dear, you are so beautiful today.” Tu Lin came up to Lucille warmly and hugged her intimately.

Lucille also revealed an elegant and reserved smile. “Mr. Tu, long time no see. Looks like you’ve been doing well in Leisa all these years.”

“It’s so-so. How can it be as powerful as you? You’ve already become the person-in-charge of Aurora’s Asia-Pacific region. I’m afraid I won’t dare to greet you if we meet on the road in the future.”

“Don’t make fun of me,” Lucille said with a smile. She looked over Tu Lin’s shoulder again. “Is this your date?”

“Yes, her name is Lu Rou. She’s a very beautiful and gentle girl.” Tu Lin enthusiastically introduced Lu Rou to Lucille.

“Hello.” Lucille held out her hand. Although she was still smiling, anyone who was attentive would notice that her smile was far less warm and gentle than it had been at the beginning. In fact, there was a hint of coldness.

Lu Rou’s face was pale, and her hands were even trembling. She didn’t know how she shook hands with Lucille, let alone what they talked about later. A question flashed across Lu Rou’s mind. Why? Why was Lucille wearing a dark blue gown today? It was even the same color as the dress she was wearing.

As the host of tonight’s banquet, no matter how tolerant and magnanimous she was, she probably didn’t want anyone among the guests to not only wear the same color as her, but also dress more gorgeous and beautiful than her!

It was fine if female celebrities were scheming against each other, but Lu Rou wanted to fight for the endorsement of Aurora’s brand through Lucille. How could she steal the limelight from Lucille at the banquet?

Lu Rou recalled why she was wearing this dark blue dress. Lu Zhen’s hateful face quickly appeared in her mind.

Could it be Lu Zhen? Did Lu Zhen deliberately induce her to wear this dark blue dress?
