Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow
For several days in a row, Lu Xingzhidu and Song Ci maintained a good chat relationship.
Song Ci originally wanted to say a few perfunctory words, but Lu Xing's handsome voice was good.
More importantly, she wants to make her life more presence.
It's not just Zhou Yong.
Such an idea made Song Ci not reject Lu Xingzhi's contact, and agreed to his request to invite him to the dinner by the way.
But as soon as he sat down, Song Ci regretted it.
Not far away from him, it was Zhou Yong.
And standing next to Zhou Yong, it turned out to be Susie?
Song Ci instantly felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly.
The last time Susie made a big fuss at the drinking party, I still remember it vividly, Zhou Yong actually dared to let her be his female companion?
Most of the rest of the people who came to eat were also in this idea.
But looking at Zhou Yong's casual look, no one dared to say anything.
No matter what Susie's identity and character are, she stands by Zhou Yong's side, which is enough to impress everyone.
"Miss Su, it's a pleasure."
So immediately, there were people who wanted to climb the big Buddha to socialize with Susie.
More and more people flocked to Susie, and Susie's self-esteem was greatly satisfied.
She glanced at Song Ci proudly, and then replied delicately: "Fortunately." β
Everyone was close to each other, trying to get Susie to say a few kind words in front of Zhou Yong's eyes.
"What are you looking at, so engrossed?"
Lu Xingzhi stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Song Ci's eyes, laughing heartily.
In this regard, Song Ci withdrew his scrutinizing gaze at Susie and shook his head apologetically: "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now." β
Susie wasn't too embarrassed tonight and looked like she had been taught.
As for who taught her......
Song Ci pursed his lips and fiddled with the chopsticks in his hand.
Zhou Yong is really idle and panicked, and he can be patient with this kind of woman who sees money.
I'm not afraid of other people's jokes.
She thought that she didn't even notice the faint vinegar in her heart.
Susie finally finished dealing with the crowd of people, breathed a sigh of relief, and returned to her seat.
"I didn't say what I shouldn't have said."
As soon as she sat down, the man's low, languid voice rang in her ears.
Susie's nerves tensed instantly, and she lowered her head and replied, "No." β
Hearing the sound, Zhou Yong was quite satisfied and forced a dull answer from his throat.
Immediately afterward, he no longer bothered Susie, but spun the lighter in his hand by himself.
In this regard, although Susie is bitter, she also knows that it cannot be surpassed.
Otherwise, the uncertain man in front of her would definitely put her in hell in an instant.
At the dinner table, people were crowded.
Zhou Yong and Song Ci sat opposite, separated by many people.
Lu Xingzhi intimately picked up dishes for Song Ci, and asked by the way: "Are there any taboos?" β
Song Ci was in a trance, but he didn't say much, only nodded.
Seeing this, Zhou Yong looked away expressionlessly, as if he didn't know Song Ci.
Susie beside him also diligently sandwiched the dishes for Zhou Yong, and her movements and words were extremely natural: "You eat more." β
Everyone's eyes were cast intentionally or unintentionally.
Although they gave Susie a little bit of thin face because of Zhou Ji's face, who knows if she will be favored by him?
Under the eyes of everyone, a faint smile appeared on Zhou Yong's face: "Okay." β
Such a gentle attitude instantly dropped a bomb on everyone's hearts.
Zhou Yong actually has such a gentle time!
Facing his gaze, Susie inevitably fluttered.
She was about to continue, but suddenly found Zhou Ji gesturing to herself under the table.
Stop.
Susie instantly panicked.
There was a slight rush on her pale face, and then it was back to normal.
There was not much movement over there, but he couldn't bear everyone's eyes watching, so Song Ci easily caught a glimpse of everything that was happening in front of him.
An indescribable look immediately appeared on Song Ci's face.
Dead scumbag.
I don't have one at home, but now I'm still hooking up with women outside.
She thought and sneered, pinching her fork and sending the meat into her mouth.
"My sister seems to care about Mr. Zhou."
Lu Xingzhi smiled and threw out such a sentence, which almost made Song Ci choke.
"Ahem, ahemβ"
She coughed incessantly, and hurriedly poured a glass of water to drink, and then relieved herself.
"I'm not familiar with it, I just think Mr. Zhou is very good to Miss Su."
Song Ci smiled lightly, indifferent and detached.
"Oh, really?" Lu Xingzhi glanced at Song Ci meaningfully and deeply.
The message he received did not seem to be so.
"Hmm."
But Song Ci answered frankly, and he didn't ask again.
The hot atmosphere in the room made Song Ci sweat a little.
She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to her, and whispered to Lu Xingzhi: "I'll go out to the toilet." β
Pushing open the door, Song Ci walked straight to the wind-blowing balcony, leaned on the railing, and touched the secret grid of the skirt.
Fingers neatly pulled out a thin cigarette, she lit it, and held it in her lips.
The sweet cigarette holder brings a sinking feeling, and Song Ci feels a lot more comfortable with the wind.
Half a cigarette passed, and she exhaled the smoke ring and quietly looked at the sparse stars in the sky.
In fact, she is very annoyed with useless socializing.
But the adult world is like this, even if you don't like it, you have to force yourself to do it to adapt.
As he was pondering, there was a sound of high heels tapping behind him, and he gradually approached.
Song Ci subconsciously looked back, his brows furrowed very tightly.
Susie.
She wore a bewitching red lipstick, stared at Song Ci with a cigarette between her fingertips with a smile on her face, and laughed: "I didn't expect Miss Song to smoke." β
"It's just a pastime." Song Ci replied lightly.
Susie bowed her head slightly, took the initiative to approach, and leaned on the railing with Song Ci to look at the sky.
An eerie silence spread between the two.
I don't know how long it took, Susie said leisurely: "Don't you feel curious? β
"What?"
Susie extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it in the trash can next to her.
"Why is Zhou Yong willing to bring me here?" After Susie finished speaking, she looked at Song Ci with a little provocation.
Hearing the voice, Song Ci was rarely silent.
After a while, she replied nonchalantly: "As far as I am concerned, it doesn't matter if Zhou Ji brings cats and dogs. Everyone here only values his background and strength, and as for the female companion, it is not worth mentioning. β
Song Ci didn't mean to provoke Susie, she really thought so.
Whoever stands on Zhou Yong's side may be overshadowed.
Because everyone's eyes will invariably converge on that dazzling man.
Hearing this, Susie's face turned a little red, and she tried to open her mouth to argue, but finally sighed unwillingly.
"You're right."
She was next to Song Ci and raised her eyebrows: "But no matter what, the only person who can stand by her side now is me." β
As she spoke, Susie seemed to have regained her fragile self-esteem in front of Song Ci.
She deliberately said it word by word.
"As for you, Miss Song."
"It's just a woman who can be discarded casually."
