Chapter 197: The Battle Between Love Rivals
Jiang Group
"Mr. Jiang, your fiancé is here." The assistant pushed open the office door and said respectfully to Jiang Lu who was working at the desk.
"Fiancé?" Jiang Lu frowned when she heard these three words, "When did I have a fiancé?"
At this time, a man in a burgundy suit walked in and waved at Jiang Lu with a smile, "Lulu..."
When she saw the person coming, Jiang Lu realized that the man in front of her was Su Mu, the young master of the Su Group, her partner and also her blind date.
At first, Jiang Lu didn’t know that the boss of the company’s partner was her blind date.
That day, she was arranged by her parents to go on a blind date. By the way, she found out that the person at the restaurant was Su Mu.
Who would have thought that Su Mu actually confessed his love to her and said that the blind date with her was arranged by him and he wanted to pursue her.
Jiang Lu politely rejected him, saying that her career was her priority now and she didn't want to have a relationship.
But her parents liked Su Mu very much and invited her to their home from time to time.
That day, the reason why they met Fu Ze, who had just returned to China, in the restaurant was because of the arrangement of both sides' parents, who wanted them to develop feelings for each other.
"Su Mu, why are you here?" Jiang Lu stood up and smiled faintly.
Su Mu still had that charming smile on her face. "Lulu, I came to see you. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Also, my parents want you to have dinner at home."
As he spoke, he walked over to the chair opposite Jiang Lu and sat down.
Jiang Lu frowned slightly, "I appreciate your kindness, uncle and aunt, but I'm very busy with the company's business recently and I really can't spare the time."
Su Mu was relentless, "Lulu, it's just a meal, it won't take up much of your time. You know, my parents like you very much and have been looking forward to your coming."
Jiang Lu shook her head helplessly, "Su Mu, we are just partners, I hope you can understand. Besides, I am not interested in love right now, and I don't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings to my uncle and aunt."
Su Mu's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he soon returned to smiling, "Lulu, I know you put your career first, but you can't completely ignore the relationship. Our two families know each other well, and I am wholeheartedly on your side, so can't you give me a chance?"
Jiang Lu was about to speak when her cell phone rang. It was a WeChat message from Fu Ze: "I'm downstairs from your company now. Accompany me to go somewhere tonight."
Jiang Lu didn't expect that three years had passed, and even though she had abandoned him, he still hadn't deleted her WeChat.
Jiang Lu looked at the message and fell into deep thought, and Su Mu saw it all.
"Lulu, what's wrong?"
Jiang Lu came back to her senses and put her phone on the table. "Nothing, just a small matter."
Su Mu's mouth corners slightly raised, but his eyes were a little sharp, "Is it the guy named Fu Ze from last time? Lulu, is he your ex-boyfriend? Are you still in contact?"
"Su Mu, this is my business and has nothing to do with you." Jiang Lu frowned.
Su Mu's eyes flashed with hurt, but his tone was still firm: "Lulu, I care about you. He suddenly appeared, who knows what his purpose is."
Jiang Lu was a little impatient, "Su Mu, I am no longer the same person I was before. I can tell right from wrong. Besides, I can handle my emotional problems myself."
Su Mushen clenched his fists and tried to calm himself down. "Lulu, I don't want to see you get hurt. Do you still have feelings for him? If not, don't bother with him anymore. If you do..."
He paused, "I hope you can carefully consider our relationship. I am sincere to you."
Jiang Lu took a deep breath and turned her back to Su Mu. "Su Mu, I've made it very clear to you. I don't like you, so don't put your mind on me anymore."
After saying that, Jiang Lu turned to look at him and said calmly: "If there is nothing else, you can go back first!"
Su Mu's face turned pale instantly. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He slowly stood up, his eyes full of disappointment and unwillingness. "Lulu, I won't give up."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the office door.
The office door was closed gently, and Jiang Lu sat tiredly in the chair, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.
She didn't know how much feelings she still had for Fu Ze, nor did she know how to deal with Su Mu's persistence.
She only knew that now she needed time and space to sort it all out.
At this time, Fu Ze downstairs was still waiting for Jiang Lu's response.
He looked at his phone, but there was no reply from Jiang Lu.
Suddenly, Fu Ze lost his patience and couldn't help but slap the steering wheel to vent his anger.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar face walking out of her company, and that man was the one he met outside the restaurant last time.
No wonder she didn’t reply to my message, it turned out she was being affectionate with her boyfriend.
Thinking of this, Fu Ze became even angrier. He opened the car door angrily, slammed it, and walked towards Su Mu.
Fu Ze walked up to Su Mu aggressively, his eyes full of anger.
Su Mu was startled by Fu Ze's sudden appearance. He frowned and looked at him, then realized, "It's you again!"
Fu Ze clenched his fists, "Who are you? Why are you in her company?"
"You are Fu Ze, right?" Su Mu's eyes were full of provocation. "I heard that Lulu has an ex-boyfriend who just returned to China. It should be you, right?"
At this point, Su Mu stretched out his hand and deliberately declared his sovereignty: "Hello! I am Lulu's fiancé, my name is Su Mu."
"Su Mu?" Upon hearing this name, Fu Ze sneered and showed no intention of shaking hands with him. "I remember that you claimed to be her boyfriend last time. How come you suddenly became her fiancé this time?"
Su Mu withdrew his hand, still with a confident smile on his face, "Yes, I am pursuing Lulu, our two families are also optimistic about our relationship, and it is only a matter of time before we become fiancés."
Fu Ze glared at Su Mu and clenched his fists tighter, "Don't be complacent, Jiang Lu won't like you. We have a past, and you can never replace it."
Su Mu raised an eyebrow and said disapprovingly: "The past is the past. What Lulu needs now is someone who can stay with her and support her career, and I am that person."
The atmosphere between the two became increasingly tense, as if a conflict could break out at any time.
Just then, Jiang Lu walked out of the company building. When she saw the scene in front of her, her face changed and she rushed forward.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing Jiang Lu coming, Su Mu smiled brightly and called her name, "Lulu."
Hearing him calling Su Mu "Lulu" all the time, Fu Zejun's face became scary and gloomy, and he wished he could go up and beat Su Mu up.
Jiang Lu saw the anger in Fu Ze's eyes and was afraid that he would embarrass Su Mu, so she immediately stood in front of him and said timidly, "Fu Ze, don't embarrass him!"
