Chapter 387: Chapter 388: Past Tense (4)

The man became anxious: “President Qin, why…”

Qin Zhiyou didn’t explain, he didn’t bother to. In an impatient gesture, he waved his hand, “This is a banquet, not a marketplace. If you no longer wish to cooperate in the future, feel free to stay here.”

With that statement, everyone dispersed. The banquet was about to start, the lights dimmed, and everyone took their places, no longer surrounding him.

Lu Weixi had been standing by his side, not saying a word. The quieter and calmer she was, Qin Zhiyou knew, the angrier she was. He was scared of her anger, and even more scared when she was not angry. But whether she was angry or not, he could sense a certain dejection in her heart.

He didn’t want to see her unhappy.

At first, his flashy behaviour served as a protective colour while dealing with his aunts and uncles. Later, when he slowly started falling for her, she was already with Qin Zhigu, and there was no need to tell her about his feelings hidden deep within his heart.

After their marriage, their relationship became frosty for a while. During that period, he had just taken over as the president of Hanhai. His uncle’s and aunt’s influence was still considerable. He had to maintain his public persona, which would allow him the opportunity to counterattack when needed. He admitted, at times, he deliberately flaunted, curious to know if she cared about him even a little bit, even if it was out of “hygiene” considerations.

Having an established persona was not a good thing. How could he prove his innocence now? Those three women were knocking at his door!

Despite the start of the banquet, the bothersome crowd around him had lessened but those three women could still cause trouble!

For instance, Liu Yiyi, the tv host. Even though the banquet had a crew, the main focus was still on the celebrities. The celebrities performed and had to interact with the audience. Of course, she was not an idiot. Knowing Lu Weixi’s identity, she could stir the pot later when the time comes. She knew very well how men were fickle, fawning over the new interest. If Qin Zhiyou had genuinely moved on, going after his new love interest would only trigger his protective instincts.

However, restraining herself from causing trouble for Lu Weixi was not characteristic of Liu Yiyi. During interactive sessions, she was not foolish enough to target Lu Weixi directly. But during the first interaction, she aimed at a man sitting far behind Lu Weixi.

The camera panned to Qin Zhiyou and her. Qin Zhiyou himself was a famous second-generation rich kid on the Internet with high traffic. Lu Weixi, sitting beside him, was clearly attractive despite the mask she wore. The more concealed her face was, the more attention she attracted, especially because of her deep connection with Qin Zhiyou.

The on-site director and the camera crew naturally wouldn’t let this opportunity slide. Lu Weixi, seated, seemed to sense that whenever the camera needed an audience to fill the background, it would inevitably aim at her proximity.

Qin Zhiyou didn’t have the mood to worry about the camera. His focus was on moving closer to Lu Weixi. He gradually leaned towards her seat, resting his arm on the armrest. Then, as if he found it uncomfortable, he removed his arms from the armrest. Afterwards, his hand, apparently accidentally, grazed her leg. As Lu Weixi was about to swat his hand away, he swiftly grasped.’.

Just at that moment, the camera panned over, capturing the scene of him holding Lu Weixi’s hand.
