Lu Weixi was livid, was she worried about these minor issues? What she was worried about was that although she was grudgingly accepting of his lack of discretion, he should not act so willfully.

Unfortunately, while this man was arrogant, he tended to walk a fine line. Although he had come looking for her and spoke flippantly, he refrained from making any forceful moves in front of others. Even his words were measured, at least enough to not let others doubt her identity.

But this guy had barely been there half a day and he had already stirred up a storm, basically destroying the reputation that she had worked so hard for. What use was it for him to keep her identity as Mrs. Qin a secret when the whole company knew that she was being pursued by Qin Zhiyou, the playboy, and that he had even pursued her to Siyi Company. His own reputation may not matter to him, but it did to her.

Luckily, Qin Zhiyou realized that he had overstepped earlier. When Lu Weixi ignored him, he didn’t insist on her attention. While driving, he strictly prohibited any distractions, fearing embarrassing pictures of her might be taken, so he put the car roof on.

When the roof closed, Lu Weixi was a bit confused. Wasn’t this guy driving a red, open-top sports car just for the sake of showing off? What was the point if he put the roof on?

Qin Zhiyou didn’t even look at her, kept his hands on the steering wheel, and stared straight ahead, “I came out for a ride, not to catch a cold. Even though it’s summer, the sky is overcast today. Who knows if it’ll rain? I don’t fancy getting wet…”

Before he could finish, there was indeed a loud rumble outside, the sky turning darker and the wind started howling, as if a storm was brewing.

With this context, Lu Weixi could not doubt him any further. The car swiftly arrived at the restaurant he had booked. His car, being a sports car, arrived the quickest. Upon arrival, his car was parked at the restaurant entrance, but he didn’t get out of the car.

He turned his gaze to the passenger seat and found a hint of concern in Lu Weixi’s face.

Actually, his visit to Siyi Company was just a small matter. Boss Liao was keen to collaborate with Hanhai, and there was a project with a generous payoff. He had initially planned on developing the project himself but, given his efforts to court Hanhai, he decided they could develop it together.

The project was significant for Siyi, while for Hanhai, it would not be a regrettable loss if they didn’t win it. Who would have known that Boss Liao would offer the project as a joint venture and let Hanhai take the larger share?

Even though Qin Zhiyou was miserly and astute, he disdained taking advantage in such a manner and decided that if they were to cooperate, they would share the expenses and labor equally. Hanhai was in the real estate business, and their construction team was top-notch, so they might as well help out. It would also save Boss Liao the trouble of finding someone else. Of course, there was no bidding scandal and the construction cost was more than fair, to everyone’s satisfaction.

After parking the car, Lu Weixi wanted to get out, but was stopped by Qin Zhiyou who grabbed her arm.

Lu Weixi frowned, starting to get annoyed. She had been holding her temper for a long time today. Qin Zhiyou could come if he wanted to, but he could at least inform her beforehand. Moreover, as soon as he arrived, he behaved like a rogue, as if he was purposefully flaunting his pursuit of her.

The dignified Mrs. Qin was mistaken for an outsider woman, moreover a woman that followed after Liu Yiyi. Wasn’t that infuriating? If his women were all like Fang Rushuang, she wouldn’t mind being second, but Liu Yiyi? Mentioning her endangered her own reputation..
