After finishing the food and drinks, Song Ruyi called the waiter over to ask for the bill.
The cost of both their meals and drinks, along with the service fee, was less than two hundred yuan. Song Ruyi was quite satisfied.
After eating the hotpot, both of them felt warm inside. When they left the hotpot restaurant, they had taken off their coats and slung them over their shoulders.
Once they entered the square, Song Ruyi was about to take her leave.
“Mr. Lu, call your chauffeur and ask him to pick you up. I’m going home too.”
Song Ruyi was very direct.
“It’s still early, so a walk sounds good. It’ll be easier to digest the food by taking a walk,” Lu Jingnan suggested.
Song Ruyi stared at him.
‘Damn it, if you want to take a walk, why don’t you do it yourself? I said that I want to go home. Is he acting dumb?’
“Okay, I’ll leave first then.” Song Ruyi turned around and was about to leave.
At the next second, her arm was pulled by someone. Lu Jingnan did not let her go.
“Have you ever seen someone take a walk alone? Do you think I’m the kind of idiot who would take a walk alone?” Lu Jingnan asked in return.
He did not say that she could leave, so she was not allowed to.
‘Did she really think that she’s not going to seek help from me anymore just because she took her phone back?’
“Didn’t you tell your sister that you’re on a date?”
Lu Jingnan deliberately provoked her. Song Ruyi had kept quiet about the matter earlier and did not explain it to him specifically either. Firstly, she was embarrassed, and secondly, she did not want to reveal what she wanted to hide.
He had analyzed her state of mind.
The more Song Ruyi did not mention it, the more Lu Jingnan wanted her to say it.
“I didn’t say it. That wasn’t what I told her. She misunderstood it,” Song Ruyi explained.
She lowered her head and looked at Lu Jingnan’s hand that was grabbing her arm.
“I returned your phone, so you treated me to a meal. Since you hit my car, take a walk with me now. We were husband and wife, after all. Now that I’m here and am not familiar with this place, treat it as you’re accompanying me to pass the time.”
Lu Jingnan was lying through his teeth, and his face did not even turn red.
If Tang Shan heard this, he would probably complain that he was too thick-skinned.
Was Lu Jingnan not afraid that he would be slapped in the face soon after saying that?
He would be slapped in the face sooner or later if he said something like that ever again.
The fact that Lu Jingnan said it despite knowing what might happen showed that he was extremely shameless.
Song Ruyi decided to stay and accompany Lu Jingnan for a walk. She really did not want him to continue talking. She did not think it was a good idea for strangers to hear their conversation.
She was also afraid that if Lu Jingnan continued talking, he would say something like ‘a day together as husband and wife meant a lifetime of devotion for each other’.
The two of them knew best what kind of husband and wife they were.
“Let go of me. I’ll go for a walk with you,” Song Ruyi said in a low voice.
She did not understand what Lu Jingnan was thinking.
Many people in this city would choose to take a walk alone. Why did he say that one would be an idiot to take a walk alone?
In her eyes, he was the idiot.
During their reunion this time, Song Ruyi felt that Lu Jingnan seemed to be different from the Lu Jingnan she had met a few years ago.
The Lu Jingnan from before was so cold and arrogant that he did not even lift his eyelids when he looked at people. It was as if they were not worth his attention.
He acted high and mighty as if he did not belong to the mortal world.
In fact, it was as though he was in a different world from her and did not feel close to her at all.
The Lu Jingnan in front of Song Ruyi at this moment seemed to be much more down-to-earth than before.

With that, the two of them walked side by side. Song Ruyi paid special attention to the distance between them.
Lu Jingnan’s tall body walked beside her. Even if she kept a safe distance, she could still feel his strong aura.
Song Ruyi did not know why, but she felt uncomfortable all over.
No matter how she looked at it or thought about it, she did not think that Lu Jingnan was the kind of man who would take a walk after a meal.
“Don’t you want to ask why I suddenly came to Jing City?” After a long silence, Lu Jingnan gave up on competing with her and took the initiative to speak.
He originally wanted to see how long Song Ruyi would have to wait before she would take the initiative to speak to him if he did not speak.
However, he was getting a bit impatient.
He finally believed that as long as he did not speak, Song Ruyi would remain silent the entire way.
Did she really not have any lingering feelings for him?
Song Ruyi. “…”
She did not want to ask indeed. She did not want to have any interaction between them in the first place, and she did not think that there would be any interaction between them.
After the divorce, she had returned to Jing City. She was busy every day, especially because Wanwan was still too small. Just taking care of her would take up 60-70% of her energy.
Song Ruyi needed to think about how to earn money and how to plan for the future of their little family.
She did not have the extra time to pay attention to others.
Now that Lu Jingnan asked, she thought that she might need to change her attitude toward him.
“Then if it’s convenient for you, Mr. Lu, tell me. Why did you suddenly come to Jing City, a small city that can’t even be ranked in the third or fourth tier?”
Song Ruyi could not figure out how she could meet Lu Jingnan again in this lifetime.
‘Mr. Lu?’
It was that term of address again. Hearing those words come out of her mouth, Lu Jingnan felt very displeased.
‘Does she have to deliberately widen the distance between us?
‘Can’t she tell that I’ve been trying his best to close the distance between us?
‘This damn woman is too ungrateful.’
“I suddenly don’t want to talk about it anymore. I don’t want to walk anymore.” Lu Jingnan suddenly got angry and turned around to walk in the direction they had just come from.
Song Ruyi was dumbfounded.
She sighed again. This arrogant man was not easy to serve. If she did not ask, he would probably be unhappy. Now that she had asked, he was still angry.
What exactly was she supposed to do?
‘God, Jesus, Maria, hurry up and take this arrogant man away.’
Song Ruyi stood where she was and prayed silently, feeling depressed all by herself.
Lu Jingnan took two steps forward and realized that Song Ruyi was not following him. He stopped and said in an unfriendly tone, “Let’s go. You’re in a daze again. I’ll send you back.”
Song Ruyi wanted to say no, but she was worried that this young master would lose his temper.
“Oh,” she said and quickly followed.
As the host, Song Ruyi did not have the face to ask Lu Jingnan to pay. After getting in the car, she said politely, “You can head back to the hotel first.”
Song Ruyi only wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible, so she spoke carefully.
“Have you ever seen a woman send a man home before?” Lu Jingnan asked bluntly.

As such, Song Ruyi told the driver the address of her residential area, then she kept quiet.
The driver drove silently.
When they were about to reach Song Ruyi’s neighborhood, they passed by a fruit shop. Lu Jingnan played another trick again. “Stop for a moment. I want to buy some fruits.”
