Song Jia took a sip of wine and said calmly, “Let’s put it this way. It’s not that you and 1 don’t want something, but we don’t have any presets. In other words, you and I aren’t the kind of people who look for answers with ulterior motives, so we didn’t expect to get anything from others from the beginning.”
Lu Zhen tilted her head. Song Jia’s words seemed to have passed through her brain. Although there were some traces left, it was difficult for her to understand quickly under the influence of alcohol.
Her dazed expression was really cute. Song Jia’s heart itched and he had the urge to pat her head. He also realized that Lu Zhen’s reaction speed seemed to have slowed down. Was she drunk?
“Do you think so?” Song Jia asked in a gentler tone.
Lu Zhen blinked slowly, nodded, and shook her head. Song Jia sighed in his heart. Just as he was about to explain further, Lu Zhen suddenly changed the topic and asked, “Now that the matter has blown up so much, how do you think we should end it?”
The topic finally returned to reality. Song Jia thought for two seconds and replied, “You don’t have to worry about that. Just treat it as a publicity stunt.
This matter won’t do you any harm. If it was disadvantageous to your career,
Ye Xuan would have interfered long ago.”
Publicity stunt… When she heard Song Jia say this word, for some reason, Lu
Zhen felt quite uncomfortable. Although the netizens did not guess the truth, Lu Zhen and Song Jia knew very well that the two people in the photo were them and Song Jia was the one who set off the fireworks for Lu Zhen. Song Jia said that these two things were publicity stunts?
Song Jia felt a sudden change in Lu Zhen’s emotions, as if she had become a little tense. Could it be that she was really angry? In fact, Song Jia had planned that fireworks show only to celebrate Lu Zhen’s birthday. He had considered the consequences, but he felt that the consequences were within control and would not affect Lu Zhen negatively.
As for going to the Polytechnic University to see Lu Zhen, his thoughts were very simple. He just wanted to accompany her at that important moment.
Lu Zhen had only been free recently. She was usually busy with work and the two of them did not have many chances to meet. Taking advantage of the fact that she was relatively free around her birthday, Song Jia wanted to spend more time with her and let her slowly confirm her feelings for him.
However, he still underestimated Lu Zhen’s popularity and influence. He also underestimated the enthusiasm and curiosity of the netizens. At this point, the responsibility was naturally his. Lu Zhen kept a low profile so it was normal for her to be in a bad mood after being noticed and discussed by netizens all over the country.
Lu Zhen was already starting to feel dizzy. She said groggily, “You always bring me trouble.”
Hearing Lu Zhen’s words, Song Jia’s heart ached. He knew that Lu Zhen might be drunk. With Lu Zhen’s personality, she would definitely not say such straightforward words. This might just be a complaint to vent her emotions.
However, Song Jia still felt terrible. Perhaps in Lu Zhen’s opinion, it was not a good thing to be involved with him.
Song Jia clenched his fists and lowered his long eyelashes. A few seconds later, he slowly stood up and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. 1 won’t let you worry about such things in the future.” With that, Song Jia turned around and left the private room.
Lu Zhen was stunned and immediately sobered up. What had she just said? Good God, how could she have said that? No, no, no. That wasn’t what she meant. She didn’t blame Song Jia for causing her trouble… Forget it. It was indeed easy for others to misunderstand her. She had said something wrong! Song Jia seemed to be angry.
Lu Zhen thought of the man’s darkened eyes and felt depressed. As she blamed herself, she thought about how to explain later.
Song Jia pushed open the door and walked to the corridor. He saw Jiang Kai. Jiang Kai rushed up excitedly and looked at the door of the private room behind Song Jia. He asked, “How is it?”
“What do you mean?” Song Jia glanced at Jiang Kai. “If you’re very free, go overseas and stay for a few more months.”
Jiang Kai put away his smile and complained, “Can’t you hope for something better from me?” After a pause, he continued, “But I came back this time because something big happened at home, but my father didn’t tell me what it was. It’s so mysterious.”
Song Jia didn’t listen to Jiang Kai. After all, what happened to Jiang Kai’s family had nothing to do with him.
Song Jia frowned and looked at Jiang Kai. “The wine you sent over had a high percentage, didn’t it?”
Jiang Kai looked at Song Jia in confusion. “l don’t know about that. I just asked the bartender to make you two glasses of the most romantic wine..”
