Backed Up

The entire process took less than a minute and was portrayed brilliantly by Lu Jinxing. The banknotes all over the ground were too eye-catching. The waiter at the side hurriedly bent down and quickly picked up the scattered money.

Song Shaoshi pursed his thin lips tightly and the anger in his heart exploded instantly. "You're using money to slap my face?"

"Didn't you refuse to accept my kindness?!" Lu Jinxing's expression darkened.

The surrounding air suddenly turned cold. The two men were at daggers drawn, and their auras were equally arrogant and domineering. Everyone watching was excited. There were long rumors in the circle about Lu Jinxing of the South and Song Shaoshi of the North.

There was Lu Jinxing in the south, Song Shaoshi in the north, and the two most handsome men in Yun City. However, these two masters usually minded their own business. Was the world going to change tonight?

"Shaoshi." Lin Yin grabbed the man beside her nervously. At this moment, many pairs of eyes fell on her. The commotion caused by Song Shaoshi breaking off the engagement was not small, and as one of the main characters, she did not have a good reputation.

Song Shaoshi turned his head and saw Lin Yin's aggrieved expression. His expression turned even colder. He held her hand gently and said, "Don't be afraid. I'm here."

The man's whisper undoubtedly calmed her down. Lin Yin instantly smiled and held his hand tightly. With Song Shaoshi around, she indeed had nothing to be afraid of.

Song Shaoshi looked at the man opposite him again, his black eyes cold. "I have money too, but I don't care. She provoked my girlfriend, so I want her to apologize!"

Jiang Jiu's lips curled up and he couldn't help but sneer. So, Song Shaoshi was being so unforgiving to her only because his girlfriend was unhappy?

A warmth suddenly fell on her shoulder, and then Jiang Jiu was pulled into the man's warm arms.

"Apologize?!"

Lu Jinxing lowered his head slightly. When his black eyes swept across the red mark on Jiang Jiu's fair neck, his gaze deliberately paused for a few seconds. "Is it so easy to bully my woman? Song Shaoshi, your girlfriend is not as precious as my Mrs. Lu."

The words "Mrs. Lu" instantly caused a thousand ripples. Everyone heard Lu Jinxing admit it with their own ears, so it was naturally no small matter.

At this moment, Jiang Jiu's heart surged with emotions again. He stood up for her in public and even admitted her identity. She really never dreamed of it.

When Jiang Jiu looked up, the smile at the corner of the man's eyes was devilish. She had seen this expression before. On the day of the wedding, Lu Jinxing also smiled like this. She seemed to sense something in his eyes, but it only lasted for a moment.

Their eyes met unintentionally, and in the eyes of outsiders, they were showing off their love. Song Shaoshi's expression was completely dark. Seeing him rush forward, Lin Yin shouted in fear, "Shaoshi, no!"

Ji Chen reacted quickly, but Lu Jinxing pushed him away.

The man in front rushed over. Jiang Jiu subconsciously stood beside Lu Jinxing.

Song Shaoshi's eyes stung and he clenched his fists.

"Shaoshi!"

Just as the atmosphere was tense, someone suddenly walked to Song Shaoshi's side and pressed on his shoulders, pushing him back two steps. "You drank too much."

"Brother." Song Ting was shocked. When she saw Song Shaojie, she immediately ran over.

Compared to the willful and mischievous Second Young Master of the Song family, the Eldest Young Master of the Song family was calm and capable. He had taken over the Song Corporation a few years ago and was outstanding. Song Shaojie glanced at his brother and then at Lin Yin beside him. His eyes couldn't help but darken.

"Third Young Master." Song Shaojie smiled and looked at the man opposite him. "My brother is insensible. Third Young Master, don't take it to heart."

"Brother…" Song Shaoshi was about to speak when he was scolded by Song Shaojie with a look. Usually, at home, he listened to his brother and the brothers had a deep relationship.

Lu Jinxing smiled and didn't refute Song Shaojie. He said in a deep voice, "Since Young Master has asked, I'm not the kind of person to argue."

With that, he reached out and wrapped his arm around Jiang Jiu's waist. "Forget it."

"I'll remember Third Young Master's favor." Song Shaojie exchanged greetings and paused when he glanced at Jiang Jiu.

Jiang Jiu had seen the Eldest Young Master of the Song family before. At that time, Song Shaoshi insisted on bringing her to meet his parents. The first person they saw was Song Shaojie. Song Shaojie was gentle and polite, the complete opposite of Song Shaoshi. But now that she saw him again, she immediately felt a little awkward.

Song Shaojie naturally noticed it too. He only nodded politely at Jiang Jiu and did not greet her. The Lu family and the Song family were clearly separated. Song Shaojie brought his second brother away and did not let him fool around.

Song Ting restrained herself and pulled Lin Yin away.

The surrounding crowd gradually dispersed. Lu Jinxing glanced at the person beside him. "Let's go."

"Okay." Jiang Jiu nodded. That was exactly what she wanted.

Jiang Xi tactfully avoided them and gestured at Jiang Jiu. When Third Young Master was not bad, he was really f*cking handsome!

Seeing Lu Jinxing leave with Jiang Jiu in his arms, Gu Anning subconsciously wanted to chase after him, but she was stopped by someone. "He's gone."

"Brother." Gu Anning stomped her feet in anger. "Don't stop me."

"Do you think Lu Jinxing will want you if you chase after him?" Gu Peng stared ahead and narrowed his peach blossom eyes. "I didn't expect Lu Jinxing's woman to be so beautiful."

"Have you taken a fancy to her?" Gu Anning was furious. She stared at Lu Jinxing's back view and her expression turned even uglier. "Can't you see that I'm angry?"

"Alright, he's just a man. Is our Gu family's princess afraid that she won't be able to get married?"

"I want Lu Jinxing! Father said long ago that the Gu and Lu families are going to have a marriage alliance. If it weren't for Jiang Jiu, I would definitely be the one to marry into the Lu family!"

As Gu Peng comforted his sister, he had other thoughts. Lu Jinxing's taste in finding women was so vicious. Anyone who saw such a stunner would not be able to control themselves.

When the storm subsided, Lu Jinxing defended Jiang Jiu in public and even left with her. This action surprised Jiang Wanming. He was secretly delighted. They could really get close to the Lu family.

"The Jiang family is so lucky to have such a respected son-in-law like the Third Young Master of the Lu family. If I were President Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

"Our Jiu has a good relationship with Third Young Master. Those rumors are just rumors. We can't take them seriously."

"Yes, yes, yes. Mrs. Jiang is right…"

Under the praises, Shu Hong's vanity was unprecedentedly satisfied. The rich madams who rushed over to please forced Jiang Ran to the back and completely ignored her.

Jiang Ran's face turned cold. It was not easy for her to accumulate a night of popularity, but she was easily crushed by the topic of the Lu family's Third Young Madam being doted on.

Intercontinental Hotel.

The corridor with a gray patterned carpet was endless. The lamp sign outside Suite V8006 emitted a dim light. Jiang Jiu stared at the number and couldn't help but tremble.

Click.

The man beside her opened the door and pressed Jiang Jiu behind it. His breath was filled with a clean scent. The lights in the room were not switched on and it was pitch-black. The river scenery outside the window flickered with resplendent neon lights.

In the darkness, Lu Jinxing's eyes were deep as he raised her chin with one hand. "Do you remember this place?"

Jiang Jiu pursed her red lips tightly. Of course, she remembered that night in this room. She had the evil reputation of tainting the Third Young Master of the Lu family and forcing him to get married to her.
