Lu Weixi paused slightly. Although she suspected she might encounter Cai Yiren when she found out that Qin Zhigu was back, their back to back return suggested they might indeed be together.
She simply laughed in response. “Good. If she returns, I will certainly treat her well.”
Her laughter was so warm, just like the spring sunshine, it dazzled one’s eyes.
However, on the way back, Xiaochen, sitting at the co-pilot seat, asked her, “Lu, don’t mistake my intentions, but can I ask you something?”
While steering the wheel, Lu Weixi simply asked, “What’s the matter?”
After pondering, Xiaochen asked, “Do you hold a grudge against that Yiren girl?”
As the traffic light changed from yellow to red, Lu Weixi hit the brakes abruptly and turned to look at Xiaochen, “Why would you ask that?”
Xiaochen scratched his head, finally saying, “I’m not sure. Although you seem calm, for a moment, your eyes were scary. Did she do something to upset you?”
Lu Weixi didn’t answer, but as the light changed again, she pressed on the gas, “That’s not your business. And, for the record, I have no intimate relationship with Mr. Wang, the man who drives a Mercedes. Please don’t spread rumors. As for Dr. Zhao, we are clear as well, so stop the gossip.”
“But…”
Lu Weixi disregarded him, “There’s no ‘but’. Remember, our industry values reputation most. If you keep saying that many men chase after me, then clients like the one today and Manager Liu from before will come smelling the scent.”
Upon hearing that, Xiaochen surrendered to Lu Weixi’s pressure. The two drove back to the company to handle an afternoon task: accompanying a client to select kitchenware and building materials. The client was a cement factory owner’s wife who was buying a mansion. The woman, in her forties and slightly overweight, was all uncovered pitch as she described how young girls shamelessly throw themselves at her husband and commented on corrupt business practices.
Lu Weixi listened with indifference, understanding that this woman was talking for her benefit. Adhering to the service industry belief that the customer is always right, she couldn’t bother to argue with her. Still, since she was so knowledgeable, there was no need to haggle over the prices of the materials for her.
However, while at one of the sofa stores, the woman, who had been carrying herself with pride, suddenly appeared crestfallen. She sprung up from the sofa, almost rabbit-like, and approached two young women who had just entered the store, “Miss Qin, long time no see. My husband is the owner of a cement factory. We met you and your mother at a dinner party half a year ago.”
Seeing the direction the woman had left, Lu Weixi lifted her gaze to two fashionable, tall, and slender young women entering. One of them was Yu Sixing’s sister, Yu Sihua.
And the woman holding her hand was none other than Qin Zhimei, whom she had had a dispute with in the Qin household just a few days ago.
Qin Zhimei seemed to ignore the middle-aged woman’s fawning completely. However, as she noticed Lu Weixi standing behind them, her eyes instantly sharpened..
