After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 121 - : She must have burned it!
Chapter 121: Chapter 121: She must have burned it!
Song Sinian, upon hearing Xia Wenjue’s words, calmly sat up straight, his gaze met with Xia Wenjue’s, and he slightly moved his lips, “XJ Group indeed has substantial strength, but that’s only overseas. In the domestic market, your foundations aren’t as solid as mine, your connections aren’t as numerous. Can you really compete with me?”
“…”
Although Xia Wenjue was very annoyed, he had to admit what was said was true.
Even if XJ Group had far-reaching influence overseas, in the domestic market, they indeed fell short.
If Song Sinian were to take serious action domestically, they really couldn’t outdo him.
For a moment, the pressure in the study dropped to a frightening level, and Zhao Xi, caught between the two tycoons, felt somewhat suffocated.
...
“Cough cough… Why don’t the two of you have some tea to cool down,” Zhao Xi coughed lightly, pouring a cup of flower tea for each of them.
He noticed that neither of them seemed inclined to touch their cups, so he continued, “I know both of you care deeply for our lady, but have you considered that if the two of you really become adversaries, the one who will be upset is still the lady.”
“…”
“…”
Almost instantaneously, the hostile atmosphere in the room dispersed.
Zhao Xi silently let out a sigh of relief. Indeed, both business magnates were afraid of upsetting their lady…
That would make things easier!
“Since both of you want what’s best for the lady, then why not discuss things together in advance? There shouldn’t be any problem with that, right?” Zhao Xi tentatively maintained a smile as he looked at Xia Wenjue and Song Sinian.
In fact, Zhao Xi himself was quite nervous when he said this.
Even though both men harbored special feelings for Lu Zhaozhao, this condition was almost like asking them to share information.
Both were business moguls who reigned supreme in their respective companies, making each other yield… it seemed highly unlikely.
Just as Zhao Xi was considering a backup plan, he saw both men simultaneously nod their heads.
“!!!”
Truly, none could hold a candle to their lady!
Inside, Zhao Xi felt like breaking out into an impromptu dance!
But externally, he maintained his placid expression, then said, “Perhaps the two of you would like to talk?”
“…”
“…”
Clearly, neither side had any intention of having a cordial conversation.
A bit awkwardly, Zhao Xi pursed his lips, and reminded in a low voice, “Cough cough… Mr. Song, the mine…”
Suddenly, Song Sinian remembered his previous request for Zhao Xi to arrange a private meeting with Xia Wenjue, his eyes and eyebrows subtly moved, as he said to Xia Wenjue, “I do indeed have some matters to discuss with you in detail…”
“…”
The next day, when Lu Zhaozhao woke up, it was already 10 o’clock in the morning.
But the weather was still gloomy, without much brightness.
Therefore, Lu Zhaozhao, upon waking up, did not know the current time.
“Awake?”
Suddenly, a gentle voice rang in her ear.
Lu Zhaozhao turned her head and saw Song Sinian entering the room with a tray of food.
Lu Zhaozhao rubbed her bleary eyes and laughed lightly, “Mr. Song, how did you know I was awake?”
Song Sinian didn’t say much, just put the porridge beside her and gently pinched her cheek, “Eat your meal now that you’re awake, you had a pretty high fever yesterday.”
Lu Zhaozhao touched her forehead, incredulous, “Really?”
She seemed a bit unsure, even doubting that she was the one who had the fever yesterday.
Because after getting up in the morning, she only felt a bit exhausted, with no other issues.
She thought it was because she had slept too much the day before, right up until now.
Song Sinian saw her, eyes curved in a smile as she watched him, apparently without any recollection of yesterday’s events.
He casually picked up the porridge from the table and scooped some with a spoon, offering it to her mouth, “Come on, eat first.”
Lu Zhaozhao paused for a moment, “I, I can do it myself.”

Unexpectedly, Song Sinian dodged, “Let me do it, we ate like this yesterday…”
As he said this, his gaze deliberately swept across Lu Zhaozhao’s small face.
Indeed, he had fed Lu Zhaozhao yesterday, but she had been half-asleep, so it was normal for her not to remember.
He just wanted to confirm whether Lu Zhaozhao had any memories of yesterday’s events.
Shock etched Lu Zhaozhao’s face as she looked at Song Sinian and then at the spoon in her hand, pulling the corners of her mouth in slight embarrassment, “Did I ask for it? Then I… must have been really delirious from the fever yesterday…”
Song Sinian did not deny or confirm it, he just quietly watched Lu Zhaozhao, before bringing the porridge to her lips again.
It looked like she truly didn’t remember.
After taking a few sips of porridge, Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Song Sinian with a bit of guilt, “What else did I do yesterday, besides asking you to feed me?”
Song Sinian thought seriously for a moment, “Well, you also tried to undress me…”
“I, I probably thought you were hot.” Lu Zhaozhao cut him off before he could finish, hastily finding a suitable excuse for herself.
Unexpectedly, Song Sinian followed up with, “So when you said you were feeling my abs, was that to cool me down as well?”
“…”
Huh? Feeling up his abs?
Was she feverish yesterday? She must have been completely burnt out!
How could she have even done something like feeling abs?
Even with a fever, she shouldn’t have lost all sense of decency!!!
Lu Zhaozhao looked guiltily at Song Sinian, her ears turning so red they seemed about to bleed.
She decided to just go for broke, timidly starting, “What, what else did I do yesterday? Tell me all of it, so I can… prepare…”
Seeing her guilty demeanor, Song Sinian gently kissed her forehead, “That’s it, after feeling the abs, you slept obediently.”
“…”
Obediently slept, just slept, why stress the part about feeling the abs!!!
Lu Zhaozhao was internally roaring.
It was one thing getting handsy after drinking, but to act this way with a fever?
Could it be because she was sick that her moral standards were also compromised?
Lu Zhaozhao felt so awkward she wished she could dig a hole to hide in, so she pursed her lips and quickly changed the subject, “Mr. Song, when, when are you going to work?”
Song Sinian shrugged lightly, “You clung to me all day yesterday, not letting me leave, so I’m working from home today.”
“…”
Damn it, she shouldn’t have asked!
Lu Zhaozhao was fed a few more spoonfuls of millet porridge by Song Sinian before she pushed the bowl slightly away, “Mr. Song, I, I’m done eating.”
As she said this, she attempted to crawl out of bed, but just as she was about to get off, she found herself suddenly lifted into the air.
Lu Zhaozhao instinctively clung to Song Sinian, looking at him with a blank face, “Mr. Song, what are you doing?”
Song Sinian’s brows raised slightly as he answered coolly, “Of course holding you, where do you want to go? I’ll carry you there…”
