Su Bei knew she would say that.

Her fourth sister had been used to protecting other women and taking on heavy responsibilities since she was young.

“You don’t have to send me back to the hotel. I can do it myself. Otherwise, Lu Heting and He Xuyan will look at me with murderous eyes.” Hua Cuo walked out of the elevator and pressed Su Bei back.

Su Bei smiled and watched her leave.

…

After Xu Zhiqin was done filming her scenes for the day, she went back to Nirvana Entertainment to do something.

He Xuyan asked her out for a meal. She dressed up and came out just in time to see Su Bei coming out of the office.

“President… Su Bei, are you getting off work?” Xu Zhiqin looked at her up and down. If Su Bei hadn’t spoken in a female voice that day, she wouldn’t have recognized Su Bei at all.

Apart from their similar heights, there was no similarity at all.

However, when she thought about what Su Bei had done to stand up for Yue Ze and help the victims, she did not find it strange. Sure enough, Su Bei was Su Bei.

“Yeah.” Su Bei looked at her sister-in-law and smiled.

“Why don’t you join us for dinner? It’ll just be the three of us.”

Su Bei smiled. “No need. What’s the point of the three of us having a meal together? You guys go ahead and eat. I’ll treat you guys next time. I’ll leave first.”

Xu Zhiqin looked at her back and felt inexplicably good. It seemed that she had been on good terms with her husband’s family since the beginning.

Wait, what was she thinking? How did he become her husband already?

When she arrived at He Xuyan’s car, her face was still a little red.

“What’s wrong?” He Xuyan tilted his head to look at her.

“I met Su Bei just now. I wanted to have dinner with her, but she refused.”

“It’s only right for her to reject you. Do you think Lu Heting, that jealous man, will be easy to handle?” He Xuyan had seen what he was like before.

Xu Zhiqin chuckled. “Mr. Lu usually looks so cold and aloof. I didn’t expect him to be like that in private. I really can’t imagine it.”

“You’ll know when you see him in the future.”

Xu Zhiqin and He Xuyan entered a quiet restaurant together.

There were not many people inside, so the ambiance appeared very elegant.

After ordering, the waiter rushed over and said, “Mr. He, your car was scratched in the parking lot. Can I trouble you to take a look?”

“I’ll go with you,” Xu Zhiqin said immediately.

“No need. Wait for me here. I’ll be back soon,” He Xuyan said.

Xu Zhiqin nodded.

After He Xuyan left, she was a little bored. She wondered how his car was scratched.

As she was thinking, someone pulled a chair over and sat down in front of her.

She looked up and saw that it was Pan Hongsen.

Pan Hongsen didn’t have a job now, and he had a lot of free time every day. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he shouldn’t give up on Xu Zhiqin. Whether it was in terms of work ability or his feelings for her, Xu Zhiqin was unique.

That was why he came looking for her again.

Xu Zhiqin’s face turned cold. “Pan Hongsen, what do you think you’re doing?”

“Zhiqin, I’m here today to ask you to give me another chance,” Pan Hongsen said bluntly and threw his car keys on the table.

Xu Zhiqin looked at him coldly. “There’s already someone sitting in your seat.”

Pan Hongsen did not care about the deeper meaning behind her words. Now that the seat in front of her was taken, so was her heart.

“Zhiqin, He Xuyan is very talented, but he has a stubborn temper. Such a person can’t earn money in this environment at all. Even if he manages to earn some money from participating in variety shows, as far as I know, he invested all his money in his new movie that might lose money. A person like him is the kind of person who will make his entire family suffer with him for the sake of unrealistic dreams. He’s not suited to survive in this world at all.” He had already asked around. He Xuyan lived in a bachelor apartment, and the car he drove was only worth slightly more than 100,000 yuan.

He did not believe that Xu Zhiqin would let herself suffer alongside He Xuyan.

“It’s not up to you to decide if he’s suitable for me or not.” Xu Zhiqin sneered. “Besides, I can earn money. So what if he doesn’t earn money? It’s just raising a family. I can afford it!”

Pan Hongsen handed the phone to her. “Look, this is my new villa, my new car, and my jewelry and diamonds. I’ve accumulated enough wealth for you to live a rich life. Zhiqin, I’ll make it up to you. I won’t make you regret it.”

The man in front of her was so unfamiliar that Xu Zhiqin was surprised.

The person she had taken a fancy to back then was a young man who loved his career and worked hard. He was a young man with such a tall figure that made her want to protect and help him even if she had to give up her career.

However, the person in front of her now was full of an unscrupulous aura.

Of course, money was a good thing. Xu Zhiqin had never denied this, but some people could live well with money, while others were completely reduced to slaves of money. Other than money, they didn’t care about anything else.

They thought that as long as they had money, they could do whatever they wanted.

“Also, Xu Zhiqin, I’ll get Yali and Brother Mark to apologize to you and clear your name. In the future, no one can slander you anymore.”

“It doesn’t matter to me if they apologize or not.” She didn’t look at the phone Pan Hongsen handed her and said mockingly, “Are you done? Can you leave now?”

Pan Hongsen wanted to say something else, but He Xuyan had already walked over. He could only stand up first and say, “Zhiqin, I’ll give you time to consider. I’ll wait for you.”

He got up and walked to the side.

He Xuyan sat back in his seat. Xu Zhiqin asked, “How’s the car?”

“Someone fixed it. It’s not a big problem.” He looked up in Pan Hongsen’s direction, sizing him up.

Xu Zhiqin said softly, “He’s a little persistent. I don’t want to see him anymore. I have to think of a way to avoid him next time.”

He Xuyan nodded. The waiter came over to serve the dishes and instructed him in a low voice.

A moment later, Pan Hongsen ordered some food. A waiter came over with two security guards and said, “Mr. Pan, please leave.”

“I know your restaurant runs on a membership system. The requirements for joining are very high. Let me tell you, I’m also a member here. You have no right to chase me out.” He took out his membership card and threw it on the table.

“I’m sorry, but your membership has been canceled.”

Pan Hongsen said angrily, “How did that happen?!”

“Because our boss isn’t happy to see you in the restaurant. Does this reason suffice?”

Pan Hongsen stood up and said, “Don’t regret it!”

He quickly left the restaurant.

However, thinking that Xu Zhiqin might change her mind, he sat back in the car and waited.
