Huh? What's going on here? In the darkness, Xia Lu lifted her head, but couldn't see Zhou Mingchen's expression. Just when she thought he had fallen asleep, Zhou Mingchen suddenly spoke.
"I know the incident at the banquet hurt you, but please believe me, I will definitely find a way to resolve this issue."
His tone was different from usual when he said this, but Xia Lu wasn't exactly sure what was different, she just felt it.
"Before that, I want to make sure you are safe, so please don't meet anyone alone anymore." This time, he didn't command, instead, he pleaded, "Is that okay?"
What's happening? Xia Lu grew more confused, but still agreed, "Mhm."
Hongli Group.
"President Zhou, the old city renovation project is going smoothly. Would you like to see the progress?" Zhang Jiunian walked in, as cheerful as ever. Now, this was normal; he had just achieved a staged victory and would not restrain himself.
