Chapter 729: Womanizing (1)

Zhao Youlin smiled, she reminded him, “That time, we were out on a date. After we left the amusement park, didn’t we go to a random cafe for lunch? Because the waitress in the cafe spilled coffee all over you, you went to the bathroom.”

Mu Tingfeng finally remembered that there was indeed such a thing, but at that time, he didn’t go to the bathroom just to get rid of the stains on his body, he also wanted to completely get rid of the waitress who had bumped into him. “At that time…”

Zhao Youlin saw that Mu Tingfeng had caught on. She continued, “At that time, you went to the bathroom to get some clothes for a long time. I was sitting alone in the coffee shop eating steak. At that time, Mr. Lu entered the shop and happened to sit behind us. Then, we met and had a conversation.”

Zhao Youlin did not mention what Lu Xiangtian and his butler had said at that time. This made Lu Xiangtian a little pleased, and he looked at her more favorably than before.

“Yes, at that time, I was still curious to see why Ms. Zhao was eating alone in the coffee shop. After asking, I found out that she was out on a date with Mr. Mu. It’s really enviable for a young couple to have such leisure after getting married.”

Lu Xiangtian’s half-smile and teasing made Zhao Youlin blush. Mu Tingfeng ignored this and held Zhao Youlin’s hand under the table.

Jiang Wenfang and Mu Tingfeng were relieved when they found out the whole story, Jiang Wenfang said with a weary smile, “These youngsters are so outgoing now. When we were dating, we even held each other’s hands secretly. Now, they can’t wait to be together every day. After getting married, they even go on honeymoons and dates from time to time. They have so many tricks up their sleeves.”

When Jiang Wenfang said that, everyone at the table laughed. Apart from Lu Shu. Her glare never once left Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Youlin saw her reaction and locked gazes with her.

After they laughed, the stagnant atmosphere at the table dissipated.

Mu Tingfeng seemed to have remembered something and asked, “If Mr. Lu was in the shop at that time, why didn’t I see him when I came back?”

Was he right behind them? But that was not right. He didn’t even have the slightest awareness that such a powerful figure was sitting behind him. There was only one possibility…

Lu Xiangtian looked at Mu Tingfeng meaningfully. “Because when you came out, I had already left.”

Left? Mu Tingfeng frowned. The inquisitiveness in his eyes had not disappeared. He had just arrived and left? If he had not forgotten, this person had clearly appeared in the shop not long after he headed for the washroom. He had left before he had returned. Could it be that he just wanted to take a stroll in the shop?

Lu Xiangtian seemed to have realized Mu Tingfeng’s confusion. He smiled. “I originally wanted to eat something in the shop like you guys, but I changed my mind and left.”

Lu Xiangtian’s explanation didn’t alleviate Mu Tingfeng’s doubts. Instead, Zhao Youlin was stunned.

She remembered that Lu Xiangtian had left because of… her words?

Lu Xiangtian did not dwell on this issue. Instead, he turned to look at Zhao Youlin, he asked indifferently, “Didn’t I leave you my business card before I left? You never once called. Or is an old man like me so repulsive?”

Everyone was stunned when Lu Xiangtian said that. Lu Xiangtian’s attitude toward Zhao Youlin… was rather odd!

Mu Tingfeng instinctively sensed the danger and narrowed his eyes. Lu Shu, who was beside Lu Xiangtian, almost gritted her teeth and glared at Zhao Youlin. If not for her awareness that they were in a public place, especially since Lu Xiangtian was beside her and she could not overreact, she would have already rushed forward to question Zhao Youlin about her ulterior motive for deliberately getting close to Lu Xiangtian.

Zhao Youlin endured the burning gazes from all directions and felt that she had been wronged. Wasn’t that business card… just a courtesy?

She thought that the business card Lu Xiangtian gave her was just a sign of courtesy, so she received it politely and handled it politely.

But now, what was Lu Xiangtian doing?! Sir, we’re not familiar with each other. We’re really not familiar with each other at all!

Zhao Youlin ridiculed him in her heart, but maintained an awkward smile on her face. “Uh, well, I saw that you seemed to be very busy and was afraid that I would cause you trouble if I called you out of the blue, so…”

Lu Xiangtian’s deep gaze lingered on Zhao Youlin for a moment, as if he was trying to determine whether Zhao Youlin’s words were true or false.

Zhao Youlin clenched her hands and met Lu Xiangtian’s gaze. She tried her best not to look… guilty.

The atmosphere between the two of them was a little abnormal. Jiang Wenfang came back to her senses. She quickly helped to smooth things over. “I didn’t expect Brother Lu and Youlin to have hit it off so well. They even exchanged business cards. I don’t even have your business card, Brother Lu. Do you want to give me one too?”

Lu Xiangtian then shifted his gaze away from Zhao Youlin and turned to Jiang Wenfang. He said helplessly, “If you want to look for me, do you even need a business card?”

These two short sentences had dispelled the ambiguous atmosphere between Lu Xiangtian and Zhao Youlin. There was still a gap between giving a business card and being able to look for someone directly.

Jiang Wenfang smiled generously. She pretended to complain, “That’s what you said. Brother Lu, look how busy you are usually. It’s not like we haven’t looked for you before, but most of the time you have your arms deep in something. As time goes by, we grew too embarrassed to look for you!”

Jiang Wenfang’s words casually mentioned that Zhao Youlin was worried that calling Lu Xiangtian would disturb him again. It was as if she was saying, “Look, you have a lot of things to do every day even when your old friends try to look for you. We wouldn’t dare disturb you, let alone a junior like Youlin. Even if you gave her your business card, would she dare to call you on a whim?

Lu Xiangtian’s eyes flickered. He turned his head to look at Zhao Youlin with a meaningful look and said indifferently, “In that case, it’s my fault. My fault.”

Zhao Youlin chuckled a little awkwardly. She didn’t dare to answer without permission. She was afraid that the more she said, the more wrong she would be and the more embarrassed she would be.

Lu Xiangtian seemed to have noticed something. He glanced at Zhao Youlin’s slightly bulging belly and said in surprise, “Ms. Zhao, this is…”
