After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 361 - 359 I just think... you did a great job

Lu Zhaozhao on the other line was clearly silent for a while before she spoke up again.

"I don’t know either, she’s kept it very tight this time. How about I ask her when she comes back? Big Brother, just relax for now; who knows, maybe if her confession is successful, she’ll be even more diligent at work?"

"..."

Lu Zhaozhao’s words of comfort did nothing to console him.

On the contrary, they stung his heart even more.

Xia Wenqing took a deep breath and it took him a long while to calm down before replying, "I understand, I’ll handle this."

"Okay, thank you, big brother~"

"..."

As soon as Lu Zhaozhao hung up the phone, Song Sinian came over and hugged her from behind the sofa.

He affectionately nuzzled her neck and murmured, "Who were you talking to?"

Lu Zhaozhao reached up to rub Song Sinian’s head and casually replied, "My big brother. He was telling me Zhenzhen took a day off, so he was asking about her situation."

"Did something happen with Xu Zhenzhen?" Song Sinian’s handsome face slightly turned to look at Lu Zhaozhao.

Normally, he hardly ever inquired about other people’s business.

But Xu Zhenzhen was someone he had paid to hire; if something really had happened, it would end up affecting Lu Zhaozhao.

Lu Zhaozhao didn’t notice the abnormality in Song Sinian, merely replying indifferently, "She called me yesterday and mentioned that she likes someone, but there hasn’t been any progress, so I supported her to confess. Then... then my big brother called me, saying Zhenzhen had taken the day off, asking where she went."

Song Sinian seemed to realize something; the corners of his mouth silently curved up, "So you told your big brother what you and Xu Zhenzhen talked about yesterday?"

Lu Zhaozhao nodded, but then saw that Song Sinian quietly buried his head in her neck.

For some reason, she always felt like Song Sinian was... smiling.

Lu Zhaozhao turned her head suspiciously to look at Song Sinian, pushing his head with her hand, and muttered discontentedly, "Mr. Song, do you know something I don’t?"

When Song Sinian raised his head again, his expression had returned to its usual calmness.

He gently shook his head, "No, I just think... you did well."

He had previously heard from Zhao Xi that Xu Zhenzhen and Xia Wenqing might like each other.

Although he didn’t know what exactly happened between Xu Zhenzhen and Xia Wenqing when they went out yesterday, he was certain that what Lu Zhaozhao had just said could serve as a catalyst for their feelings.

As for who would break through that barrier first, it depended on who was more anxious.

Anyway, neither of them should have time to fight him for his wife now.

He was very satisfied.

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows lifted, always feeling like there was a hidden message in Song Sinian’s words.

She was about to continue questioning, but Song Sinian changed the subject directly, "Xia Wenjue has a birthday this weekend, do you know?"

"Huh?" Lu Zhaozhao was confused.

She shook her head directly, "How do you... "

Lu Zhaozhao’s words stopped there, as if something occurred to her.

The Xia Family had investigated her as soon as they made contact, so it didn’t seem surprising that Song Sinian knew Xia Wenjue’s birthday.

Song Sinian gently pinched her cheek and then said, "Later, you call Grandpa and tell him we’re going to the Xia family this weekend, so we won’t be back for dinner."

Lu Zhaozhao nodded, her little head nuzzling into Song Sinian’s embrace, questioning in puzzlement, "Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for you to talk to Grandpa?"

Song Sinian shrugged, "If I make the call, he would certainly get on the phone and scold me for being undutiful. I’m scared."

Scared my ass.

Lu Zhaozhao thought of how he behaved every time they went to the Song Mansion for dinner together, and she couldn’t help but get a headache.

Clearly, every time he managed to make old Master Song so angry he’d jump with rage, and now he had the nerve to say he was scared?

Recently, Song Sinian’s visits with her to the Song Mansion had become much more frequent, and the exchanges between Song Sinian and Mr. Song grew more direct.

Their current relationship resembled that of puberty crashing into menopause, with meals full of sparks and lightning.

But strangely enough, old Master Song seemed to enjoy it.

And she was at her wit’s end with these two.

Lu Zhaozhao sighed softly and, after rubbing Song Sinian’s head, resigned herself to make the phone call...

Xu Zhenzhen took two days off and didn’t see Xia Wenqing when she returned to the office of the Legal Department at the Song Group.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and went straight to Song Sinian’s office.

She had to give Song Sinian an explanation for taking off spontaneously these past two days.

Even though she had already requested time off in advance from Zhao Xi and Xia Wenqing.

But still, she felt somewhat uneasy.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Xu Zhenzhen had just knocked on the office door when it was opened from the inside.

"Zhenzhen? What are you doing here? What a coincidence!"

A familiar voice came through, sending a chill down Xu Zhenzhen’s spine.

She stared incredulously at the source of the voice, just in time to see a woman wearing the latest white professional suit from Chanel standing inside the office.

Her wavy long hair fell gracefully beside her ears.

Yes, gracefully.

A word that would never be associated with her in this lifetime.

Her eyes lowered, and then she put on a smile to look at Liu Xiaozhen, "Indeed, quite a coincidence. I’m actually doing an internship at the Song Group right now."

Liu Xiaozhen seemed a bit surprised, "Oh, is that so? I just came here to discuss business and didn’t expect to bump into you and Wenqing. What a small world."

Saying this, she winked at Xia Wenqing, "Don’t you think?"

Her affectionate demeanor made Zhao Xi, standing on the side, furrow his brows.

This woman was clearly Xu Zhenzhen’s rival, and in times like these, he had to side with his own people.

He cleared his throat, "Excuse me for interrupting the pleasantries, but our Mr. Song has already made things very clear about the contract. If there are no issues, Ms. Liu, you can sign here."

Zhao Xi said this, his gaze casually sweeping over Xu Zhenzhen, giving her a look.

Xu Zhenzhen had just regained her composure when she realized something.

She hurriedly stood beside Zhao Xi, putting distance between herself and Liu Xiaozhen.

The corners of Liu Xiaozhen’s brows twitched slightly; seeing that Xia Wenqing didn’t speak, she maintained her elegant smile.

"Okay, I’ll sign right now." She said, and picked up the pen from the desk and wrote her name on the document.

Afterward, she looked up at Xia Wenqing with a beaming smile, "So... old classmate, pleasure doing business with you."

Xia Wenqing nodded at Liu Xiaozhen, yet he still said nothing.

Because from the very start, all his attention had been focused on Xu Zhenzhen.

He hadn’t seen her for two days, she wouldn’t answer his calls, she wouldn’t reply to his texts.

And what was even more infuriating was... the band-aid on her neck!

There were only so many ways one could get hurt on the neck, and the only reason to put a band-aid there was to cover up a love bite...
