Chapter 469 Still Can't Let Me Go

Netizens were immediately in an uproar upon discovering this.

"My ex-husband booked out so many venues, could it be that they're getting back together?"

"Maybe it's just a clean break, to give his ex-wife some support!"

"NONONO! This is clearly a confrontation with certain people!!! He still definitely loves them..."

"Both President Tang and my ex-husband are quite nice; I wonder who will end up with!"

"Why choose? Can't beautiful women focus on their careers on their own?"

Lu Shengsheng ignored the online discussions and made no response, cooperating with the production team to continue the promotional tour.

Her hard work paid off; the film's box office hit new records every day, and people seeking collaborations were calling Zhao Xuan non-stop.

Zhao Xuan knew that she wanted to transform into a more serious actress, so quality was more important than quantity. She needed to be very careful in choosing the next project to collaborate on.

If you choose the wrong option, all your previous hard work will be wasted.

***
With the movie a huge success and Lu Shengsheng's promotional tour over, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief and call Liang Hanyue to arrange a get-together.

There were a few other friends as well.

The location is still Wangyue Tower.

Lu Wenzhou naturally accompanied her, and the first thing everyone did upon seeing her was to hug her and congratulate her.

Lu Shengsheng said gratefully, "I haven't had a chance to thank everyone for my mother's matter before, but I can do it all together this time. Please eat and drink as much as you like tonight, don't be shy."

"Don't worry, we won't stand on ceremony with you," Shen Zhixing said with a smile.

Lu Shengsheng and Lu Wenzhou invited everyone to sit down. Once everyone was present, the manager instructed the waiters to start serving the dishes.

Lu Wenzhou has been busy lately, eating irregularly, and has become visibly thin. Lu Shengsheng served him a bowl of soup.

Liang Hanyue looked at her with a smile in her smoky eyes.

Lu Shengsheng asked, puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at how much more virtuous and gentle you've become now."

Lu Shengsheng glanced at her, "You're making fun of me."

"I'm happy for you two," Liang Hanyue retorted. "I used to think that one of you was carefree and the other was impulsive, and I was worried that you wouldn't get along, but I never expected..."

They will be this harmonious and warm together.

Lu Shengsheng snorted lightly, "You're quite surprised, aren't you?"

Everyone laughed together, and Lu Wenzhou was so charmed by her cute appearance that his heart almost melted. He looked at her with eyes full of smiles and doting affection.

Qin Yishen raised his glass to Lu Shengsheng, "Congratulations on the great success of your movie. May things get better and better in the future."

Lu Shengsheng clinked glasses with him, "Thank you."

Since everyone present was a good friend, everyone drank only a little and no one tried to force or pressure anyone to drink.

Halfway through the meal, the atmosphere was quite pleasant when the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open. Gu Rong walked in and saw Lu Shengsheng leaning against Lu Wenzhou, laughing hysterically. Her heart tightened, as if a dull knife was slowly cutting into it.

Everyone was stunned.

Qin Yishen closed his eyes in despair, feeling that he was once again taking the blame for this.

Fortunately, Gu Ronghui didn't use him as an excuse this time. She lowered her gaze and said in a low voice, "I heard you're hosting a dinner here, so I came to say hello."

The words were spoken to Lu Shengsheng.

Lu Shengsheng simply said "Oh," and then fell silent.

Lu Wenzhou, however, picked up his wine glass, stood up, and said, "Thank you for booking the entire venue to support Sheng Sheng."

After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

Gu Ronghui's eyes were gloomy, and his thin lips were tightly pressed together without him speaking.

Lu Shengsheng looked up at him. "Mr. Gu, is there anything else?"

Gu Ronghui knew she didn't welcome her and didn't want to spoil her fun, so she said, "You guys continue."

He just wanted to see her, but he never expected to witness such a horrifying scene. After he left, the atmosphere in the private room instantly returned to normal, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Shengsheng tugged at his sleeve, "Why are you bothering with him?"

"You should thank them for their support," Lu Wenzhou said with a smile, completely unconcerned about Gu Ronghui's high-profile attempt to associate herself with Lu Shengsheng.

Lu Shengsheng glared at him, "You're so generous."

Lu Wenzhou played with her hair with his fingertips and said in a low voice, "Who told me to be your boyfriend now?"

Lu Shengsheng knew he was showing off, so she didn't respond and let him gloat.

After dinner, Jin Yanchen was the first to come and pick up Liang Hanyue, afraid that if he was even a second late, she would be kidnapped.

Qin Yishen and the others left after the driver arrived. Lu Wenzhou originally wanted to take her home, but the company suddenly called, saying there was a problem with the program. He glanced at Lu Shengsheng, still hesitating...

"You go ahead and do your work, I'll go back by myself," Lu Shengsheng whispered to him.

The person on the other end of the phone was still urging him, so Lu Wenzhou had no choice but to agree to go back immediately.

"Let Lao Ma take you, I'll take a taxi." Lu Wenzhou was worried about her going alone.

"No need, I'm a grown man, I won't get lost." Lu Shengsheng pushed him into the car, "You go and take care of your work at the company."

Lu Wenzhou stood at the car door without getting in. "Then let me know when you get home."

Lu Shengsheng nodded: "Okay."

Lu Wenzhou lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "I'm sorry, I'll definitely spend more time with you after I'm done with this busy period."

Lu Shengsheng pushed him into the car, "Alright, let's go, don't keep them waiting."

Lu Wenzhou reluctantly bent down to get into the car, and she immediately closed the door, told Lao Ma to drive, and waved goodbye.

As soon as the car drove away, Lu Shengsheng was about to hail a taxi back when she turned around and saw Gu Ronghui walking out of Wangyue Tower.

The smile on his lips froze instantly; it was too late to run away.

Gu Rong walked up to her and whispered, "Didn't he take you home?"

“His company has something to do, I can go back by myself,” Lu Shengsheng replied.

"Get in the car, I'll give you a ride." Gu Rong's driver had already stopped the car on the road.

Lu Shengsheng remained standing, saying, "No need to trouble President Gu."

Gu Rong stared intently at her with his dark eyes, "Lu Shengsheng..."

"What?"

"If you keep avoiding me like this, I'll misunderstand that you haven't let go of me and are afraid to face me."

Lu Shengsheng: ?

"Where do you get your confidence?" Lu Shengsheng had the same expression as an old man looking at his phone on the subway. "I just simply don't want to ride in your car, OK?"

Gu Rong nodded. "So he's afraid you'll contact me, worried that you'll change your mind?"

"What?" This is getting more and more outrageous. Lu Shengsheng walked directly to the car and kicked it, arrogant and haughty: "Aren't you going to open the door?"

Gu Ronghui lowered his head and his thin lips curled up silently. He was still so easily provoked.

He stepped forward to open the door, and Lu Sheng helped him bend down to get into the car.

Gu Rong closed the door and went around to the other side to get into the car.

The driver was dumbfounded the whole time. He had never seen President Gu open the car door for anyone before, and he had never seen anyone dare to be so bossy towards President Gu.

Gu Ronghui instructed the driver to drive, but the driver kept his eyes fixed straight ahead, wishing he were deaf, for fear of overhearing something he shouldn't and being silenced.

Fortunately, Lu Shengsheng wasn't interested in talking to him, and Gu Ronghui didn't speak up either.

They remained silent the entire way until the car stopped, at which point Lu Shengsheng unbuckled her seatbelt and prepared to get out.

“Sheng Sheng…” Gu Rong called out to her.
