The moment Qian Xun met with his gaze, she turned away.
Shi Ze apologized. “Sorry, I did not manage to brake in time. It’s my fault, and I’m willing to compensate.”
Lu Yanzhi’s lips curled into a fake smile. “You did not manage to or did you ram into me intentionally?”
“Of course not!” Shi Ze refuted loudly before frowning. “Forget it… I don’t wish to explain anything either. If you feel that I’ve done it intentionally and you’re not willing to resolve it privately, call the police then. Since it’s my fault, I leave it to you to decide how you want to resolve it.”
Lu Yanzhi leaned against the door of his car and glared at Shi Ze with dagger-like eyes. Scrutinizing him knowingly from head to toe, he returned to his car without saying anything and drove off without turning back at all.
It was only after Lu Yanzhi left that Shi Ze heaved out a sigh of relief—the iron-clad aura of that man was truly somewhat repressing.
He turned around and apologized to Qian Xun. “Sorry, it’s all my fault! I forgot to slow down.”
Qian Xun watched him coldly and said nothing, returning to the car first. Narrowing his gaze, Shi Ze returned to the driver’s seat as well.
Along the journey, Qian Xun was really silent. No matter what Shi Ze spoke to her about, she ignored him entirely.
As the car stopped in front of her apartment building, he said again, “Sorry!”
Finally, Qian Xun could no longer hold it in as she snorted coldly. “What are you sorry for? The fact that you did not manage to brake in time or that you had planned everything deliberately?”
The moment Lu Yanzhi spouted that ‘You did not manage to or did you ram into me intentionally?’, she had sensed something wrong about the entire incident.
Lu Yanzhi must have come to that conclusion that Shi Ze had done it intentionally after considering how cars usually collided, along with his grudges toward the Lu Family.
Along the way back, Qian Xun thought about the entire incident.
Why would Shi Ze suddenly look her up at the film set and insist on having a meal with her today? Had he already known that Lu Yanzhi would appear at that restaurant?
Did he have people keeping tabs on Lu Yanzhi before plotting that small accident intentionally? Just what was he up to?
Shi Ze smiled out expressionlessly. “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
“You know full well. Shi Ze, please don’t use me as your weapon. At the same time, don’t try to test out the relationship between Lu Yanzhi and me over a baseless rumor! If there’s a next time, I’ll terminate our cooperation!”
With that, Qian Xun slammed the car door and left!
Shi Ze’s expression changed slightly as he eyed Qian Xun. Gripping his steering wheel, he jammed down hard on the pedal and drove off.
As she was preparing to enter her apartment, Qian Xun turned back and looked at Shi Ze’s leaving car, feeling a sense of fatigue. But, before her shoulders could even loosen, a cold, stiff, and mocking voice rang out behind her.
“Why? Can’t bear to part, huh?”
A car had stopped behind her as the windows wound down to reveal a handsomely cold face. Qian Xun’s surprise leaked out on her face for a moment.
Lu Yanzhi came forth from his car swiftly, and in a moment, his tall and sturdy body was right before her as he glared at her coldly.
Forcing herself to calm down, Qian Xun pursed her lips and replied frostily, “Of course! I’ve got to have some longingness after bidding farewell to my fiancé.”
The car was soundproof, and she wasn’t worried in the slightest that Lu Yanzhi might have overheard their conversation from earlier.
