After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 148 - Zhaozhao Hopes I Can Exercise
Chapter 148: Chapter 148 Zhaozhao Hopes I Can Exercise
As she spoke, she took a light step forward, closing in on Xia Wenjin.
“…”
Xia Wenjin had previously suffered a loss at Lu Zhaozhao’s hands, so when she spoke like that, he immediately retreated several steps back.
Just in time to push open the door that was blocking the way.
Lu Zhaozhao took the opportunity to step out, tilted her head with a trace of mockery toward Xia Wenjin, and hooked her lip corner, “Goodbye, Lu Family’s only daughter!”
“Lu! Zhao! Zhao!”
...
“…”
Lu Zhaozhao, listening to the powerless fury behind her, rolled her eyes in silence.
Clearly lacking any real skills, but still flaunting in front of her.
Flaunting back and forth, it’s always the same old phrases, even a scammer has more novelty than her.
It’s truly boring…
The auction was basically without suspense, apart from the three veins that both Song Group and Lu Group competed for, the remaining veins were all split among other companies.
The outside world had always rumored that Song Sinian was very fond of his wife, Lu Zhaozhao. Now that they saw Lu Family winning the bids for the two popular veins,
their belief in this rumor was only strengthened.
It seemed that if one wished to obtain favors from Song Sinian, the effort had to be made through Lu Zhaozhao!
SJJ Building’s top floor.
Two tall figures were sparring on the PK platform, their movements and techniques both fast, looking like two dark shadows constantly making contact and bouncing apart.
Making it hard to tell who had the upper hand.
After a long time, the two entangled figures finally separated.
Xia Wenjue, barely keeping his balance, leaned on the PK platform’s railing and protested discontentedly, “Song Sinian, are you even human anymore? Didn’t we agree it was just for training? Are you sure what you just did was ‘training’ and not settling personal scores?”
His gaze shifted to Song Sinian, who appeared serene. With his scholarly demeanor, who could tell he was a master?
When Song Sinian had proposed for him to be a fitness coach, Xia Wenjue had agreed without a second thought.
He had hoped that if he got on better terms with Song Sinian, it might be possible for him to think of a way to make Lu Zhaozhao accept the Xia Family’s current situation.
But after only a short while of sparring, Xia Wenjue felt like he had been tricked.
This kid – whether it was Sanda or boxing, he didn’t struggle at all!
And if he was even slightly careless, he’d get hit!
What kind of coach was this?
Clearly, it was sparring! And a sparring session where he was the punching bag!
The more Xia Wenjue thought about it, the more he felt disheartened, so he walked forward two steps and simply lay down on the PK platform.
He was exhausted to the point of death, yet Song Sinian had barely broken a sweat.
Life truly wasn’t fair!
Song Sinian glanced at him and said with a cool tone, “You really should train properly; as you age, your body does tend to become stiffer.”
“…”
The descriptions “aging” and “body stiffening” clearly hurt Xia Wenjue.
His martial arts skills might not be top of the class, but they were by no means mediocre.
He just wasn’t a freak like Song Sinian.
Him, a CEO with such good skills, and then suddenly wanting to spar — why?
Xia Wenjue pondered for a moment and then turned to look at Song Sinian, “Is it because of Zhaozhao that you want to have a good relationship with me?”
“…”
An awkward silence instantly made Xia Wenjue realize he had overthought it.
He sighed quietly, thinking about it, aside from his special feelings for Lu Zhaozhao, Song Sinian had no “feelings” to speak of towards others.
Why would he suddenly want to get along better?
His actions were definitely related to Lu Zhaozhao. As to why, he’d have to wait for him to be explicit about it.
Song Sinian picked up the water bottle beside him, took a sip, and then spoke leisurely, “Zhaozhao hopes I can get in shape.”
His words were brief and to the point, with no attempt to hide anything.
Xia Wenjue’s eyebrows rose slightly, “Then why are you looking for me? If it’s just physical training, anyone else would do, right?”
Holding the water bottle in his hand, Song Sinian squeezed it slightly, “Zhaozhao trusts you, and besides, the only one who can spar with me and would count as training is you.”
“…”
So it all comes down to me being able to take a beating, huh?
Xia Wenjue couldn’t help but roll his eyes, looking at Song Sinian with a speechless expression.
He had lived for so long, but it was the first time he had been so blatantly used as a tool.
Xia Wenjue lifted his hand to wipe the sweat off with the towel around his neck, and his gaze towards Song Sinian involuntarily narrowed.
Since he had already been used as a tool,
it really wouldn’t be right not to scrape some “kickback” for his status as the CEO of Xia Group.
“Brother-in-law… Zhaozhao still doesn’t know the real situation of the Xia Family, could you… perhaps help out?”
“No.”
As soon as Xia Wenjue’s request left his mouth, Song Sinian very discourteously refused.
Xia Wenjue immediately climbed up from the sparring stage, “Come on, now Xia Wenjin is lording it over everyone with the Lu Family’s status, Zhaozhao can’t be wronged on this side too!”
Song Sinian gave Xia Wenjue a look, “I don’t think the title of Mrs. Song is inferior to that of Lu Family’s daughter.”
“…”
Good lord, he had rendered him speechless with that comeback.
Xia Wenjue had to admit Song Sinian was right, and after the auction incident, the name Lu Zhaozhao had indeed made a splash in the Shangjing Circle.
But… he also wanted to legitimately announce the daughter and heiress of Xia Group!
Xia Wenjue pouted his lips and stared at Song Sinian again for a long time before slowly speaking again, “I heard the Lu Family booked an event at SJJ Hotel for Xia Wenjin’s identity announcement…”
A flicker of expression finally crossed Song Sinian’s face.
He raised an eyebrow slightly and took out his phone to dial a number.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
The call was quickly answered, “Zhao Xi, has the Lu Family booked a private room at SJJ Hotel?”
The person on the other end, Zhao Xi, seemed quite surprised that Song Sinian would take interest in such a trivial matter.
But since he had asked, as his assistant, he had to answer truthfully.
“Yes, sir, the Lu Family just booked a VIP room at SJJ Hotel for her…”
“Cancel it, and from now on, cancel any and all bookings from Lu Group,” Song Sinian blurted out without waiting for Zhao Xi to finish.
He wouldn’t allow his wife to be embarrassed under the hospitality of Song Group.
“Uh… yes, sir.”
“And from now on, all hotels under Song Group are not open to anyone from the Lu Family, including Xia Wenjin.”
“Understood.”
Boy, his boss really played tough.
Just after the Lu Family announced that the only daughter of the Lu Family was Xia Wenjin, almost indirectly declaring their severance with Lu Zhaozhao to the outside world,
their boss immediately drew a clear line.
It seemed like the Lu Family wouldn’t be hopping around for much longer.
After receiving the response, Song Sinian hung up the call, and his gaze turned to Xia Wenjue, as if asking, any other issues?
“…”
Xia Wenjue now wanted to give him a round of applause on the spot.
What a show! Truly magnificent!
It was mean for sure, but the effect was undeniable.
Xia Wenjue had to admire Song Sinian; he never hesitated when it came to matters concerning Lu Zhaozhao.
Whatever benefited Lu Zhaozhao, he would do.
Aside from being somewhat difficult to communicate with, as a brother-in-law, he really couldn’t be faulted.
Suddenly, as if a thought had struck him, his black eyes narrowed sharply—
