Chapter 364 - Sticking Close To His Wife
Actually, Song Xing Xing could understand why Lu Xun was always humble and had never thought of himself that great.
His relationship and connection with the Zhang and Long family probably had something to do with his success in Capital City.
However, Song Xing Xing knew that connection alone would not be enough. Lu Xun was hardworking and someone with vision. Although he might seem careless when he made his business decision, this man was aware of every move he made.
She could see this from the companies that he had invested in and the people he worked with.
As Song Xing Xing pondered about this matter, she began to wonder if one of the reasons Lu Xun had avoided her at the beginning of their relationship had something to do with her background. Although he had never said it out loud, Song Xing Xing couldn't help but notice how he had always been careful with her from the very beginning.
Song Xing Xing later found out that Lu Xun's words to be true.
Lu Xun had only left her side for one minute to get her a glass of drinks when a group of women walked over with a bright smile on their faces.
As she recalled his warning, Song Xing Xing straightened up her body and flashed a smile. Looking at the way the others were looking at them, Song Xing Xing quickly guessed that they should be the top socialist in Capital City.
The group was led by the woman in a long, red dress. Song Xing Xing's gaze was quickly attracted to the woman's full breast. They were too eye-catching and it was hard for her not to look at them.
"Mrs. Lu," The woman greeted with a bright smile on her face. "Congratulations on your marriage."
"Thank you."
The woman in a bright red dress walked closer and held her arm. "Mrs. Lu, you are new in Capital City. Let me introduce myself. I'm Yu Xiao Li. My husband is President Luo from the KK Group. Since you are new here, I can be your friend and introduce you to the others."
"Then, I will have to thank you for your help."
"Mrs. Lu, you don't have to be polite. Just call me Xiao Li." She flashed her a smile and turned to her friends.
The group of women began to introduce themselves and tried to engage in small talk with her. However, before they could speak longer with her, Lu Xun returned to her side with a glass of warm water for her.
"President Lu," Yu Xiao Li led the others to greet him.
However, the man only gave them a nod before he wiped his hand and continued to peel some prawns for his wife.
Song Xing Xing suppressed her displeasure. This person called Yu Xiao Li was already married, but what was she doing, trying to get close to Lu Xun with her big chest?
Fortunately, Lu Xun did not look where he was not supposed to look.
The women exchanged their awkward glances. The atmosphere turned awkward when Song Xing Xing did not say a word to introduce them to Lu Xun.
"The two of you are truly newlyweds," Yu Xiao Li spoke. "President Lu, it seemed that you couldn't bear to leave your wife for a few minutes longer."
Lu Xun raised his head and narrowed his eyes at the women. The way he looked at them was as if asking whether they had problems with the way he was sticking close to his wife.
Seeing his unfriendly gaze, the women's smile turned awkward and they slowly walked away.
"Did they make trouble for you?" Lu Xun asked once the women were out of their sight. He took out a wet tissue and began to wipe his fingers.
Song Xing Xing laughed. "You were only away for a couple of minutes. How could they make trouble for me?" She took the glass of water from him and took a sip of the warm water.
A faint smile curled on his lips. "I'm sorry. Now that you are married to me, it seemed that in the future, you will have to face this situation again."
"It's fine. It wasn't like I'm not used to it."
Lu Xun reached to touch her arms and massaged her softly with his thumb.
As a member of the Song family, Song Xing Xing was used to attending banquets and meeting people. However, just because she was used to it, it doesn't mean that she liked facing such a situation.
Wasn't that the reason she chose to move to Capital City? So that she could live a quiet life? Unexpectedly, he had brought her back into this scene when she chose to marry him.
Song Xing Xing took another sip from her drinks and tilted her head to one side. Her long hair shifted as she moved and Lu Xun quickly pretended to play with her hair while covering the mark on her neck area.
"Is it fine if you continued to stay with me?" Song Xing Xing asked. "Aren't you supposed to walk around and socialize? Meet a lot of people and discuss a potential business?"
There were a number of businessmen and political figures attending this banquet. It would be a good chance for anyone to build up connections.
Lu Xun chuckled when he heard her question. "This was not the reason why I took you to accompany me to this banquet." He only came because of the Mayor's invitation.
Her brow rose. Song Xing Xing was about to ask him for his reason when a thought suddenly came to her mind.
This man... it couldn't be that he wanted to show off that he was now a married man, right?
Song Xing Xing would not be surprised if this was indeed his reason. After all, this would not be the first time that he had done so.
She pretended that she was not interested to know his reason and continued to eat her food.
"I'm going to the restroom," Song Xing Xing announced. She turned around and found that Lu Xun was following her. A laugh escaped her. Song Xing Xing had not thought that this man would be this sticky.
Unfortunately for him, Lu Xun could not follow her into the restroom and had to wait outside.
Song Xing Xing entered the cubicle and frowned at her sore legs. She was tired after walking around and accompanying her mother-in-law to shop. The heels that she was wearing at this moment were making it worse.
She was about to push the door and walked out when she heard some voices. Her movement halted, finding that one of the woman's voices sounded familiar. It did not take her too long to recall that the person was Yu Xiao Li.
And currently, the big-breasted woman was saying a few words about her and Lu Xun.
