"Miss Meng, I'm really sorry. I've been quite busy lately, and I probably won't be able to find the time to have dinner with you in the short term. I appreciate your kindness, but saving you twice was just a casual act on my part. So, you really don't need to keep it in mind. Besides, didn't you already send me eight concert tickets earlier? So, we're even. You really don't need to thank me further."
Even if you want to thank me, you can't do it in front of my wife and invite me to dinner alone!
This is like blatantly telling my wife there's something fishy between us!
Although, deep down, Lin Fei doesn't actually reject the idea of having dinner alone with Meng Ke'er. Even if it means, after dinner, engaging in some private matters between a man and a woman.
Lin Fei could accept that.
But, in front of Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife, Lin Fei clearly could only refuse Meng Ke'er ruthlessly.
