Chapter 118 Seduction
"Yes, that's what the old man said, but I won't give up on Luo Ying because of this. I love her," Lu Zhao said.
His eyes were firm and unyielding.
Even Sirius was startled.
He had never seen his friend so obsessed with a woman.
"It's true that my grandfather threatened me with Luo Ying, but I won't let that wretched old thing have his way." Lu Zhao's hands were tightly clenched, and his eyes were filled with ruthlessness.
"You guys know that I hate being threatened," Lu Zhao said.
"You don't hate being threatened, but you can't give up on Luo Ying, right?" Wen Du said with a smile.
"If your mental state can't bear the risk of losing her, this puts your mental wellbeing at risk," Wen Du said slowly.
Lu Zhao clenched his fists. "I won't let my illness act up."
He wanted nothing more than to protect Luo Ying now.
"Lu Zhao, are you really stupid? This woman treated you like dirt, and you're still speaking up for her? That woman is just an ordinary young lady from an influential family. If you want women like her, there are plenty of them in the world. Why must it be her?"
"She is who she is. You wouldn't understand at all." The veins on Lu Zhao's hands bulged.
"You were injured because she exposed your whereabouts, but you're still here protecting her. You're really funny, Lu Zhao," Sirius said.
He didn't expect his friend to be so crazy about this woman.
"Alright, let's not get excited. Lu Zhao, I'll just get you through a simple psychological counseling session to prevent your mental state from having any problems after this. Is that okay?" Wen Du asked.
Lu Zhao nodded and followed Wen Du into the small room of the hotel suite. It was quieter. It was a good place for psychological counseling.
"Mr. Sirius, you don't have to be so agitated. Mr. Lu's mental condition is not as serious as you think. Please believe in Dr. Wen." Chen Lin, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke up. She smiled and a dimple appeared by the side of her mouth.
"I'm not worried," Sirius said.
If Lu Zhao did not want to leave this bad woman, he could think of a way to make this woman leave Lu Zhao.
"Do you like Lu Zhao?" asked Sirius.
He had just noticed the woman's eyes on Lu Zhao, which were as gentle as water.
"I only admire Mr. Lu. I don't dare to like him." The woman's face was slightly red.
A man like Lu Zhao, who had a good family background, was capable, and handsome, was a fatal dream to the women of the city.
If this woman liked Lu Zhao, he could use her to get rid of Luo Ying.
"I can help you get close to Lu Zhao, if you help me."
It didn't take long for Lu Zhao to receive treatment, and he and Wen Du soon walked out of the door together.
"I'll host a banquet tonight. How about we have a meal together and go for a drink later?" asked Sirius.
"Yes, Dr. Wen. Were you not lamenting about not having a drink for a long time? Isn't this a good time now?" Chen Lin laughed and played along.
"I don't see why not. How about it, Lu Zhao?" Wen Du asked.
"Sure." Lu Zhao agreed, and his originally furrowed brows relaxed a little. It had been a rather productive session.
When the others were not looking, Sirius gave Chen Lin a look.
The four of them ate together. During the meal, they only talked about the recent events in the city and did not talk about any problems about Luo Ying. When they reached the drinking area, Chen Lin opened the wine first and toasted Lu Zhao.
"I've long heard of your name, Mr. Lu. This is the first time I'm meeting you. You really live up to your reputation."
Lu Zhao just reached out and clinked his glass with hers. "Ms. Chen."
His eyes didn't even remain on Chen Lin for a second.
Chen Lin was a little deflated, but she still put on a gentle smile. "I've seen Ms. Luo Ying's variety show before. I think she's very beautiful. Do you think I can get closer to her?"
