Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Money Talks

Regarding Lin Musen asking her to change how she addresses him, Song Qiao thought about it and realized that at most, she could only call him "Young Master Lin," and calling him "Musen" directly was really beyond her!

After all, she wasn’t that close to Lin Musen; their relationship was, at most, that of superior and subordinate. To add a bit more, it was only because he was acquainted with Shen Yi, and Shen Yi was her senior!

Song Qiao gave a slight smile without saying a word!

She couldn’t bring herself to use such intimate names unless they were very close. She could at most call Lin Musen "Young Master Lin" or perhaps "Mr. Lin"!

This time, Lin Musen really wanted to make Lu Jingchen bleed money. He simply flipped through the menu and directly ordered a long list of the restaurant’s most expensive dishes, which weren’t necessarily the tastiest!

Song Qiao looked at Lin Musen across from her as he continued to call out dish names non-stop, and her mouth twitched involuntarily. She then turned her head towards Lu Jingchen beside her and asked leisurely, "Did you offend him somehow?"

Lu Jingchen slightly curled his lips and replied in a soft voice, "Yeah, kind of. I took a deal worth fifty million from him before."

It wasn’t exactly poaching, it was more like playing by the rules!

Suddenly realizing that the two of them were so close, Song Qiao was startled and subconsciously shifted to the side. However, the man beside her, intentionally or unintentionally, moved his hand from the back of the sofa and directly blocked Song Qiao’s shoulder!

In that instant, Song Qiao dared not move and heard the man’s deep voice beside her ear, "If you move inwards any more, you’ll hit the glass. I’m not going to eat you up!"

Song Qiao wanted to burst into tears; it wasn’t that she was afraid the man would consume her, but that she just wasn’t comfortable being so close to the opposite sex!

Pursing her lips, Song Qiao stayed silent, silently watching the opposing Lin Musen who seemed to be on a mission to bankrupt Lu Jingchen with his non-stop ordering, truly wanting to mutter "The rich are capricious!"

When her mother was still around, in the Song Family, she had a fair amount of pocket money. Although the Song Family wasn’t a prestigious clan, they were quite wealthy in An City. But she had never, like these men in front of her, burnt money as if it were paper; the most she would order at a restaurant was enough food for a few people to eat. She had never done something like Lin Musen’s approach of ordering based on price regardless of the taste!

Even though the money being spent wasn’t Lin Musen’s, it was Lu Jingchen’s!

The Lu Family was among the top prestigious clans in An City, and Lu Jingchen was the sole person in charge of the Lu Family. It was said that when Lu Jingchen was younger, he started his own business and turned ten million into several hundred million. With such a business acumen, his net worth skyrocketed countless times, so this amount of money was nothing to him!

But Song Qiao still felt the pinch, even though it wasn’t her money. Ever since she left the Song Family, she had been figuring out how to support herself, being as frugal as possible when it came to spending. So, watching Lin Musen burn money like this, she couldn’t help but feel the sting!

Lu Jingchen turned to see Song Qiao’s expression and, thinking of her life these past years, an unusual feeling emerged in his heart. Almost subconsciously, he leaned down close to Song Qiao’s ear and whispered, "Let him fleece me this time, it’s no big deal. After all, this meal is supposed to be in celebration of our marriage. Next time, I’ll take you to fleece him back!"

Song Qiao’s body stiffened, only feeling a hot and moist sensation in her ears—it was the man’s warm breath on her earlobe!
