Chapter 212: If You Want That Item, Exchange it With Yourself

Lu Jingye looked at the beautiful face in close proximity and thought that she must have heard someone saying he would be marrying another woman.

Just as he was about to speak, the waiter’s footsteps were heard.

Zi Yi sat back down.

When the waiter served all the dishes, Zi Yi went over to sit next to Lu Jingye.

She watched him slice the steak gracefully and simply put down her cutlery and stared at his side profile.

Seeing that she remained unmoved, he pushed his steak to one side, pulled her plate over, and sliced it carefully.

Zi Yi was instantly elated.

“Lu Jingye.”

“Yes?”

“Did you miss me?”

“…”

“Hehe, I know it even if you don’t say it aloud.”

Zi Yi picked up a piece of sliced steak and slowly chewed it. After swallowing, she said, “I have something that’s very important to you with me here, and you should have more or less guessed what it is.”

Lu Jingye finally tilted his head and looked in her direction.

Their gazes met each other’s and soothing piano notes floated into their ears.

There seemed to be a sweet atmosphere in their surroundings.

Zi Yi smiled at him. Her smile was similar to that of a fox. “If you want that item, exchange it with yourself.”

Lu Jingye’s eyes darkened and stared at her for several seconds. Following that, he looked away and continued slicing the steak for her. After he was done, he pushed the plate over and responded with an “Okay”.

Zi Yi’s heartbeat inexplicably sped up.

Did she hear him wrongly? That old-fashioned man actually agreed?

Zi Yi could not believe what she had heard and raised her hand to touch his face.

When her fingers were about to touch his Adam’s apple, Lu Jingye’s voice that carried traces of helplessness and pampering sounded. “Eat.”

He originally wanted to wait until she had turned 18 and use this period of time to let his family members accept her. However, the young lady was too anxious and he could only change his plans.

“Okay~”

Zi Yi was satisfied and began to eat her steak.

The two of them went out together after they finished the meal.

It was currently the peak hour. Even though it was a high-end western restaurant, there was no lack of rich individuals in the capital.

Everyone was shocked when they saw Zi Yi, the girl who had been famous in their circles in recent days, walking towards the cashier with the unattainable Second Young Master of the Lu family.

They could only look on helplessly as they walked out. After they left, they seemed to have been released from their shock and started a heated discussion.

“Oh gosh, Lu family’s Second Young Master dined in the western restaurant together with the woman who seduced He family’s Fourth Young Master and Ouyang family’s Young Master!”

“This woman must have used some underhanded means. How could a noble person like the Second Young Master Lu dine in together with a woman like that?”

“Speaking of which, that woman is really beautiful.”

“What use is there in having a beautiful appearance? A woman like her is unworthy of being with us from high-society!”

Among all of them, be it whether they were envious or jealous, after they had finished gossiping, they all did the same thing, which was to post on their friend’s circle group.

Very soon, practically almost all the younger generation of high-society knew of this incident.

In the end, someone deliberately spread this information to Mrs. Lu.

At first, Mrs. Lu had sternly scolded the person who passed this information to her. Following that, when Lu Jingye returned home, she questioned him in a complicated mood. “Jingye, some people are saying that you went to dine at a western restaurant with a woman. Is that true?”

Lu Jingye looked at Mrs. Lu and guessed that his mother must’ve heard of Zi Yi’s bad rumors. He said to her in all seriousness, “Mother, Yiyi, is not someone like that.”

“You’re already calling her so intimately?” Mrs. Lu was surprised. “Could it be that you’ve really fallen for her?”

Lu Jingye replied seriously, “Mother, she’s still young. All the rumors outside about her are all evil intentions towards her.”

It seemed like he should do some cleaning soon.

Mrs. Lu never imagined Lu Jingye would be so protective of the woman who had a bad reputation and had mixed feelings.

Even though she always wanted her son to find a girlfriend, someone with a bad personality just wouldn’t do.

Mrs. Lu was a little worried. Her son was a reliable person so why did he fall for a woman with such a bad reputation?

In the end, she decided to meet with that woman in secret.
