Song Ruyi did not know what Lu Jingnan had just gone through, but she knew he was grumpy from his tone.
She wondered if it was a bad time to call him. Was he going through some sort of ‘male menopause’? It was a little early for him to go through that at the age of 30.
“I’m Song Ruyi. I borrowed the phone of a kind person, so I’ll make it short. You have to remember it,” Song Ruyi said quickly.
Lu Jingnan: “…”
He could not be bothered to say anything. He snorted disdainfully in his heart.
Even so, he was all ears and ready to listen to whatever she had to say.
As Song Ruyi did not hear a response from Lu Jingnan, she did not know if she should continue to say what she wanted to say.
The two of them stayed silent for a while.
Song Ruyi had no choice but to repeat herself. “I’m Song Ruyi. Mr. Lu, are you still there?”
Lu Jingnan could not help but roll his eyes. He urged her impatiently, “I got it. Tell me.”
Song Ruyi thought to herself, ‘What do you mean you got it? Why didn’t you say something? I’m not a mute person nor a worm living in your tummy. How can I hear what you’re thinking over the phone?’
Even though she was displeased, she made herself wait on the irritating man. Once she got her phone back, she would not want to see him anymore.
“I’ll arrange for dinner. The specialty dish in Jing City is hotpot. It’s a dish that anyone can enjoy, regardless of whether you can eat spicy food or not. I don’t think you know which hotpot restaurant is delicious. So at 6:00 pm, meet me on Square Road. I’ll wait by the fountain. It’s very easy to find. If you really can’t find it, you can just ask a local. Got it?”
Lu Jingnan remained silent.
Did she really think that it was his first time in Jing City?
“Got it. See you tonight.” Lu Jingnan knew that Song Ruyi was a silly and straightforward woman. If he did not respond, she would probably just wait there foolishly.
When he received her call, his originally depressed mood caused by the despicable woman earlier suddenly cleared up.
Song Ruyi hung up the phone and thanked the security guard before going upstairs to change her clothes.
…
After a while, Song Ruyi washed her clothes and hung them up. It was already 5:00 pm.
It was almost rush hour. Even though Jing City was not a big city, the economic conditions had improved a lot in the past two years. Every family had a car. In Jing City, this standard of life was considered basic.
Song Ruyi had planned that when Wanwan went to kindergarten, she would also consider a scooter. This way, it would be more convenient for her to earn money to meet the needs of their daily lives.
Traffic jams were common during rush hour. Song Ruyi consciously sped up. When she went out, she did not forget to put a charger in her bag.
If her phone ran out of battery after she got it back, that would be a headache.
She arrived at the fountain on Square Road at 5:40 pm.
It was 20 minutes earlier than the time she had mentioned earlier.
However, she did not expect Lu Jingnan to arrive ten minutes earlier than her.
After Lu Jingnan received her call, he felt much better. When Tang Shan and An Hongming returned from touring the company, he told them he was leaving.
He did not even allow Tang Shan to make a report as he was in a hurry to leave.
An Hongming was not willing to let them leave just like that. He quickly smiled and said, “President Lu, I’ve prepared dinner. Please give me a chance to treat you.”
Lu Jingnan rejected him immediately. “That’s not necessary. I have a dinner appointment.”
An Hongming was speechless.

He gave up and asked his assistant to go to his office to get some specialties from Jing City. It was all sorts of snacks and pastries.
Most men did not like eating sweet things, but Lu Jingnan was different. An Hongming had heard that he had a sweet tooth and that there were all kinds of snacks in his office.
Seeing the things An Hongming’s assistant brought over, Lu Jingnan did not refuse. “Tang Shan, take them.”
Lu Jingnan said to An Hongming, “President An, I’ve accepted your gifts. Next time, I’ll treat you to a meal, and we’ll talk in detail then. I really have something to do today. It’s important, so I’ll be going now.”
Tang Shan. “…”
What’s so important about returning a phone?
When did President Lu become so shameless?
Tang Shan was speechless.
Lu Jingnan took two steps toward the door and turned around. “Oh right, there’s one more thing. President An, as a fellow business person, I like people who work with me on projects to be sincere. There’s no need for underhanded methods. It doesn’t suit you.”
An Hongming’s face flushed red from Lu Jingnan’s words.
He finally understood the reason Lu Jingnan was so successful and accomplished at such a young age. He truly had outstanding abilities.
How could An Hongming not understand Lu Jingnan’s hint? Someone must have done something to Lu Jingnan without him knowing.
An Hongming ordered his assistant, “Kunming, go and find out if anyone has acted out of line.”
“Yes, President An.”
When Lu Jingnan left An Hongming’s real estate company, he requested Tang Shan to drive the car to the hotel.
He took a shower and changed his clothes. Then, he informed the service staff to wash the clothes he just changed out of.
Following that, he called the owner of the car. As soon as the call connected, he said directly, “Come to my hotel later. Get the keys from Tang Shan. You’ll need to fix the taillight. After it’s fixed, I’ll reimburse you.”
There was silence on the other end of the line.
‘Has my beloved car gotten into an accident not long after my cousin drove it out?’
The person’s heart was about to break.
Lu Jingnan knew how the other party felt. Even so, he ignored it and hung up the phone.
As he headed out the door, he took out a perfume and sprayed it on himself.
It was a lightly scented perfume.
When Lu Jingnan went out, Tang Shan stood outside the door. He frowned and said, “You’re free for the day. Tonight, Yunfei will look for you to get his keys. You can handle him. As for my matters, you don’t have to tell him.”
Bai Yunfei was Lu Jingnan’s cousin who lived in Jing City.
Lu Jingnan’s mother was also from Jing City, so he could be considered a native of Jing City as well. He came to Jing City on a business trip, but it was the same as going home.
He did not want to be nagged by his grandparents, so he only told Bai Yunfei. The rest of the family did not know of his return.

“Understood,” Tang Shan accepted the order and went straight to his room to wait for Bai Yunfei.
Lu Jingnan took a taxi and went straight to Square Road.
“Have you been waiting for long?” Song Ruyi saw Lu Jingnan when she walked over. Although she was not late, he had arrived earlier, so she had to greet him politely.
