Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Wow~ This Melon’s Guaranteed Ripe

"Then you’ve probably been deceived. I don’t recall anyone named Cen Mulin from my time studying abroad."

Lu Yunque actually remembered her, but their relationship could hardly be called close. At most, when they ran into each other at school, he found her vaguely familiar and knew she was a fellow student. That was all.

However, he hadn’t known that Cen Mulin would actually lie to Cen Senrong.

And Cen Senrong’s expression right now could be described as being as black as ink.

This was the definition of social death, and it was all thanks to his daughter.

"Now, shall we discuss why Chairman Cen brought so many people here? What did you hope to accomplish?"

Lu Yunque glanced over Cen Senrong and the group of people behind him. Though he wore a smile, it sent a chill down the spine.

Li Yuexing and his friends also watched Cen Senrong and his entourage, the corners of their mouths lifted in slight smirks.

’Picking a fight with Zijing? Are they tired of living?’

"A misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding! We just came over... to say hello to Miss Yun."

"We just heard from Ann Betty that Miss Yun is your girlfriend, President Xiao Lu, so we came over to familiarize ourselves. We wanted to avoid any accidental offenses in the future—wouldn’t want to step on our own, after all."

"So you came to say hello to me? Is forcing someone to apologize your way of greeting people? How... unique."

’Yun Zijin had no intention of letting them off the hook for their behavior. They were obviously here to start trouble, and she refused to indulge them!’

"Yes! An apology. Ann Betty! Get over here and apologize to Miss Yun right now!"

Cen Senrong’s mind raced, and he ultimately decided to sacrifice a pawn to save the king.

Ann Betty never thought things would end up with her having to apologize to Yun Zijin.

Yun Zijin sat on the sofa, watching Ann Betty with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

"Miss Betty, you don’t look very well. Are you unhappy with this?"

"Not at all! Miss Yun, my apologies."

"What was that? Your voice is too quiet, I can’t hear you."

"My apologies, Miss Yun!"

Ann Betty raised her voice, but her expression was still full of resentment.

’Besides, a sincere apology would be "I’m sorry." A simple "my apologies" wasn’t enough to appease Yun Zijin.’

"I just had someone call Mrs. Cen. Miss Betty, what do you think of this present?"

Since the call had been made, Yun Zijin wasn’t about to let Ann Betty leave early.

At least until Mrs. Cen arrived, Ann Betty wouldn’t have a chance to leave.

Yun Zijin’s statement made Cen Senrong break out in a cold sweat.

Bringing a secretary to a banquet instead of one’s wife... it was an open secret what that meant, but no one ever dared to say it aloud.

If he let Ann Betty leave early, it would all but confirm the sordid business between them.

But if he waited for his wife to arrive and see Ann Betty, the outcome would be the same.

He didn’t for a second believe that Yun Zijin had merely had someone make a phone call.

"Miss Yun, you..."

Cen Senrong wanted to accuse Yun Zijin of fighting dirty, but he had just started to speak when a warning look from Lu Yunque stopped him.

"If there’s nothing else, you may all leave."

Lu Yunque had no desire to be gawked at by a crowd.

No matter how resentful Cen Senrong and Ann Betty were, they had no choice but to drop it.

It was simply because Lu Yunque and his three companions were clearly on Yun Zijin’s side, and in front of them, the Cen family was utterly outmatched.

Although the others were eager to see what would happen next, Lu Yunque had spoken, so they couldn’t very well keep lingering. One by one, they made their excuses and scattered.

Once everyone was gone, Yun Zijin looked at Lu Yunque and the others. "So, what were your results?"

Lu Yunque shook his head. "It’s not decided yet. We might have to wait another two days."

Yu Shuosheng clearly valued his project highly. It was obvious he was being extremely cautious when choosing an investor.
