“Bing Qing, I’m begging you, help me think of a way. I really can’t lose Lu Li.” Zhang Ziqin looked at Su Bingqing pitifully, like a cat that had been abandoned.

“Is it only after losing him that you’ve learned to cherish him?” Su Bingqing looked at Zhang Ziqin with a complex expression, feeling a bit of heartache.

In her view, her sister had gone too far.

In the previous life, Lu Li didn’t give up, and she treated Lu Li like an old shoe. This life, Lu Li has given up, and she starts to cherish him.

“Now there’s another girl by Lu Li’s side, don’t you care?”

“I don’t care, I don’t care about anything, as long as Lu Li can come back to me.” Zhang Ziqin said firmly.

Having lost Lu Li twice, what else could she possibly care about? Compared to losing Lu Li completely, such matters are trivial.

“...Then go pursue him.” Biting her lip, Su Bingqing still gave her advice.

“Or are you too proud to let others know you like Lu Li?”

“No, of course not, it’s just that I don’t know how to pursue someone. And Lu Li seems to really dislike me now, I have no idea how to even talk to him.”

“Heh, as if you’d know how to talk to Lu Li. In the previous life, even though you clearly liked Lu Li, every time you saw him, all you had for him were insults,” Su Bingqing couldn’t help but sneer.

“What else can you do? Lu Li pursued you in the past, don’t tell me you don’t know how. Now, just use his methods to pursue him. I can’t think of anything else.” This way, it’s also a kind of revenge for Lu Li.

“No matter how he views you, if you’re truly determined, then don’t mind your pride. Don’t forget, Lu Li pursued you for eight whole years, and how did you treat him?”

Su Bingqing’s expression was especially serious, touching the most painful part of Zhang Ziqin’s heart.

Yes, if she couldn’t even let go of her so-called pride, what right did she have to chase after Lu Li?

She had already decided, no matter how many years it would take, she would pursue Lu Li unwaveringly. Yet, she panicked and backed down just because Chen Xiaoyi suddenly appeared. That was too improper.

“Thank you, Bing Qing, I know what I should do now.”

“And...”

Not to mention Zhang Ziqin herself is a stunning beauty.

A flash of eagerness crossed his eyes.

Although Zhang Ziqin rejected him last time, after thinking it over, Ye Chen guessed it was probably because she was upset from being ridiculed by Liu Menghan that day.

Otherwise, could it possibly be because of Lu Li?

Don’t make me laugh.

“Let’s go inside.”

“Mr. Lu Li from the Lu family has arrived,” suddenly a server announced, drawing everyone’s attention.

The Lu family’s status in Hangzhou was no small matter, with few families able to compare.

“Why is it Lu Li coming? In such an event, shouldn’t the Lu family send Lu Ya instead? Sending Lu Li, this waste, aren’t they afraid of losing the Lu family’s face?”

“Hahahaha, you’re using outdated information. Who doesn’t know, Lu Ya has been kicked out of the Lu family, now who knows where she’s gone. Moreover, Mr. Lu Li, what waste? After he took over Lu Corporation, geez, it’s a sight to behold.”

“Ah, Lu Corporation has become a mess under this prodigal son Lu Li?”

“Bullshit, I’m saying those corporations targeted by him are the ones in a sorry state, terrifying, terrifying,” he shivered involuntarily.

“Cut it out, he’s still Zhang Ziqin’s lapdog in my eyes. I don’t respect him.”

“You’re the one with outdated info. These few days, the whole of Hangzhou has been abuzz. It was Zhang Ziqin using the resources given by Lu Li that allowed Zhang Corporation to repeatedly turn crises into opportunities. Now Lu Li has stopped pursuing her and retracted all cooperative projects with Zhang Corporation.”

“Ah, so much has happened?”

The story of a rich man being a goddess’s lapdog is too clichéd. The lapdog turning around to devastate the goddess is the plot people love most!

In the crowd, Zhang Ziqin bit her lip, the conversation around her not intentionally lowered in volume.

Each word was like needles stabbing into her heart.
