After Tang Nan’s departure, Fang Yuan followed the waiter to the top private room. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name.
“Fang Yuan?”
Lu Chen had just arrived after parking the car and spotted Fang Yuan’s back. He called out tentatively, surprised to see her here.
“What are you doing here?” Lu Chen asked, puzzled.
Fang Yuan looked at him with a quizzical expression.
Lu Chen then noticed a job recruitment advertisement posted at the club’s entrance and was in disbelief. “You’re here to apply for a job?”
Fang Yuan remained silent.
“Don’t you have enough money?” Lu Chen furrowed his brows, noting her attire from a luxury brand. He couldn’t fathom her extravagant spending. “You’ve been spending excessively. After leaving the Fang family, you should learn to be more frugal.”
Fang Yuan was taken aback. Was this person out of their mind?
Lu Chen continued, somewhat self-absorbed, “I’m here for a class reunion with Jiayi. I just opened a tab.” Lu Chen waved the card in his hand as if it were his face, assuming that Fang Yuan might be enticed by it and thinking of himself as a gentleman. “If you’re free, would you like to join us?”
Fang Yuan couldn’t be bothered and turned around to leave.
“Hey, stop right there!” Lu Chen hadn’t anticipated that she would actually ignore him, and he felt embarrassed. “Even if you’re jealous that Jiayi is with me, can’t you at least be polite? Shouldn’t you greet an old friend?”
Fang Yuan turned back with a displeased look. “I don’t want to converse with an idiot. Any issues with that?”
“You! It’s only been a few days since we last met, and your language has already become so vulgar. Birds of a feather flock together, they say. Who have you been associating with to turn into this?” Lu Chen appeared genuinely disappointed.
Fang Yuan felt genuinely enlightened. “Why does it concern you who I’m with? If there’s something wrong with your brain, you should go to the hospital and get some medication. Don’t go around bothering people.”
“You!” Lu Chen was initially quite furious, but as he remembered that she had come to apply for a job and even been involved with an older man, he suddenly felt sympathy for her.
“Do you need financial assistance? Just let me know, and I’ll help you out.”
Fang Yuan rolled her eyes at him. “You’re insane.” She then walked away with the waiter.
Lu Chen watched her walk down the corridor toward a top-notch private room. Could it be that she wasn’t here to apply for a job but rather to serve a wealthy client in a top-notch private room?
With this thought in mind, he suddenly realized why she hadn’t been interested in his five-million-yuan card. It turned out she had her sights set on a bigger target!
At that moment, the door to the high-end private room swung open. Fang Jiayi saw Lu Chen standing in the corridor and asked in confusion, “Lu Chen, did you open your tab? Why do you look upset?” Why was he wearing such a displeased expression?
Following Lu Chen’s gaze, Fang Jiayi saw a figure that appeared to be Fang Yuan entering a top-notch private room. She was momentarily stunned before exclaiming in disbelief, “Is that Sister? Is she here too?”
Lu Chen replied with frustration, “She’s someone who doesn’t value herself.” His tone was filled with anger.
Fang Jiayi understood. That had to be Fang Yuan; otherwise, Lu Chen wouldn’t be so upset.
To confirm his suspicion, Lu Chen halted a passing waiter. “Excuse me, does the club offer any special services?”
“Special services?” The waiter pondered for a moment. “Our club provides a wide range of services. Could you specify what you’re inquiring about?” He began listing entertainment, sports, and leisure services, each sounding quite intriguing.
Lu Chen clenched his fists and thought, ‘As expected, Fang Yuan is going to a top-notch private room to serve a high-profile client!’ The more he pondered, the angrier he became. He forced a tight-lipped smile and said to the waiter, “Never mind, you can go.”
“Brother Lu Chen…”
Fang Jiayi was about to say something when Lu Chen continued, “I need to use the restroom.”
Fang Jiayi seethed with anger as she watched him depart. It was Fang Yuan once again. Why did it always have to be her? She was beyond annoying!
Just then, a few more of her classmates arrived. Fang Jiayi quickly greeted them with a warm smile and ushered them into the private room.
“Dear classmates, today is a treat from Jiayi’s fiance. Feel free to order whatever you’d like to eat or drink, but let’s not go overboard. We wouldn’t want to make a bad impression on her fiance. Let’s not embarrass Jiayi!” Li Shan advised.
While her classmates acknowledged the sentiment, they couldn’t help but shower Fang Jiayi with praises, remarking on how she had found such a handsome and exceptional fiance. Speculation about Lu Chen’s family background ran rife.
“His father is the wealthiest person in Fengcheng City…” Fang Jiayi tried to appear nonchalant.
“Really? The wealthiest person in Fengcheng City? That’s incredibly wealthy!”
“No wonder he insisted on getting that top-notch private room earlier. His family background is really something…”
“What about that ten-million-yuan private room?” inquired a latecomer.
“You arrived late, so you probably missed it. Jiayi’s fiance was incredibly generous just now!”
The conversation continued to revolve around Lu Chen’s generosity, and the admiration for Fang Jiayi reached new heights..
