He was one step too late.

Ye Haotian looked at Song Wei’s back and was silent for two seconds. Then, he lowered his head and lost his spirit.

“You’re saying that Lu Chengchen paid for this?” he asked in a low voice.

“That’s right.” Wang Yu nodded and looked angry. “To be honest, I’ve never seen a man like President Lu. He’s cold-blooded and heartless. It’s said that even if love is not there there’s still kindness and benevolence. A day as husband and wife are worth a hundred days of grace. President Song is his wife. Even if she’s nominal, she has accompanied him for so long. When using his money she still has to… sigh!”

Petty!

Wang Yu was so angry that she could not continue.

Song Wei walked in front. She heard Wang Yu and Ye Haotian’s words clearly. She did not retort or turn around to explain anything. Firstly, it was unnecessary. Secondly, what Wang Yu said was indeed the truth.

“Xiaowei!” Ye Haotian caught up with Song Wei.

Song Wei turned her head and smiled at him as if nothing had happened. “What’s wrong?”

Ye Haotian stuffed a card into her hand. “Take this card. You might need it in the future.”

The small bank card lay in Song Wei’s hand. Song Wei felt that it weighed a thousand pounds.

Pursing her lips, she smiled and stuffed the card back into Ye Haotian’s pocket. “No, it’s okay. I took extra money from Lu Chengchen. It’s enough for me to push through this period of time.”

Ye Haotian subconsciously took out the card from his pocket again. “Xiaowei…”

Song Wei gave him a warning look.

In an instant, Ye Haotian did not dare to go forward. They grew up together and he understood Song Wei’s character. It was useless to force something that Song Wei didn’t want on her, especially when it concerned her pride.

Song Wei watched him put away the card and said in satisfaction, “Have you had dinner? Do you want to join us?”

He was worried for her and came to look for her. She definitely couldn’t let him go back just like that. That would be too rude.

Ye Haotian’s eyes lit up when he heard that. However, his expression collapsed in just a second. “No, I have to go back later. My old man called to rush me again.”

“That’s such a pity.” Song Wei shook her head and clicked her tongue. She said helplessly, “Well, looks like I can save the money for this meal.”

“You.” Ye Haotian wanted to reprimand her, but he was so angry that he laughed. “However, I really need your help with something. There’s a gathering next month, and we’re all brothers. Can you help me hold the fort?”

“It’s still early to next month. Let’s talk about it later.” Song Wei rubbed her stomach. She was so hungry that her stomach hurt.

She walked to the side of the road, ready to call a car back to the hotel.

Ye Haotian quickly caught up to her and said, “It’s because you’re too busy. I have to book your schedule for next month in advance. Remember, it’s on the 12th of next month. You can’t be busy with other things at that time. You have to spare some time for your friend that day!”

Song Wei stopped and looked at him, confused, “What do you need me to support you for?”

“I just need a female companion.” Ye Haotian waved his hand disapprovingly, but his expression quickly became guilty. He smiled embarrassedly and said, “It’s a gathering between brothers. Everyone has a girlfriend and wife to accompany them. If I’m alone, people will look down on me…”

Female companion?

Song Wei thought for a while and rejected decisively. “Then I’m not suitable.”

“What?” Ye Haotian did not expect to be rejected so quickly. “Miss, are you going to watch me die?”

Hearing this, Song Wei couldn’t help but laugh.

She stopped in her tracks and looked at him. “Save you?” She chuckled. “If I were to save you, I’d be dead. Tell me, how many of your old buddies don’t know me and Lu Chengchen? They’re all accompanying their girlfriends and wives. I’m someone else’s wife. Is it appropriate for me to go with you?”

“What’s inappropriate about it?” Ye Haotian knew that he was in the wrong, but he was unwilling to accept it. He muttered in a low voice, “Do you really think you’re Lu Chengchen’s wife? You’re upkeeping your reputation for him but he doesn’t even care.”

When Song Wei heard this, her body stiffened and she looked at him blankly..
