I Trust You

"We just met a few days ago and you already forgot who I am?"

Chu Hua looked at the phone number again, "Miss Su Yan?"

--- Yesterday

Su Yan walked out of the warehouse with her head held high, not bothering to say goodbye to anyone.

"Let me in! I am Jin Yinghui's friend!"

Su Yan turned to the direction of the voice and raised one eyebrow. Jin Yinghui?

"Chen Lu, you can leave," Su Yan said to her assistant.

Su Yan put on a tender smile and walked over to the woman, "Hello."

Chu Hua turned around and scrunched her face up at the sight of Su Yan.

"Are you looking for Jin Yinghui?" Su Yan asked.

"Yes." Chu Hua didn't recognize Su Yan as she had been in France all this time, but by her looks, Chu Hua could guess that the lady in front of her was a celebrity.

Chu Hua's face darkened as she turned towards the security guard, "Let me in. You can even come in with me to check if I know Jin Yinghui or not."

Su Yan studied Chu Hua, checking if she would be of any use to her. Although it was well-hidden, Su Yan noticed a hint of disgust in Chu Hua's voice when she mentioned Jin Yinghui.

Su Yan turned towards the guard and said, "Don't let her in."

Chu Hua curled her lips and glowered at Chu Hua, "Why?"

"I can help you."

Chu Hua raised one eyebrow and tilted her head to one side, "Help me?"

Su Yan drove Chu Hua to a nearby coffee shop, and she was able to obtain quite a lot of useful information from the journey.

Having spent many years in the vicious and complicated entertainment industry, Su Yan's assumptions about people were normally right. This time was no exception.

Su Yan ordered a drink for both of them before sitting down at a table in the middle of the shop.

"So, you said Jin Yinghui stole your boyfriend. Are you planning to steal him back?"

Chu Hua looked up at Su Yan and a hint of uncertainty flashed through her eyes. The woman in front of her was smiling, her eyes turned into crescents. However, this couldn't hide the greedy longing written on her face.

Chu Hua crossed her arms and asked, "What do you have against Jin Yinghui? Why are you helping me, and why can I trust you?"

Su Yan's smile grew bigger, "It's up to you whether you want to trust me or not. I spend so much more time throughout the day with Jin Yinghui than you do. It's much easier for me to keep an eye on her and use her."

Chu Hua pursed her lips together and looked down at the empty table. She really didn't have any other choice now, and there was a path, and only one path right in front of her. She could only take that path.

"Okay, I trust you."

--- Present

"Miss Su Yan?"

"Hello, Chu Hua. Did you receive the photo I sent you?" Su Yan didn't bother hiding the triumphant tone in her voice.

"Yes, how did you get it?"

"That, you don't have to know. I told you to trust me and you made the right decision. Go ahead and send the picture to your boyfriend. Don't forget to talk badly about Jin Yinghui too. I want you to ruin her image in your boyfriend's mind."

Su Yan hung up the phone and threw it back to her assistant, "Send the most recent picture in my photo album to the reporters. Have them write an article about it."

It was almost 6 when Elena returned back to her apartment. She didn't tell Mila what happened with Zhang Bing, as she didn't take the confession really seriously.

After changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Elena left the apartment.

Lu Chenjun checked his phone once every few seconds, and he got more and more impatient each time he checked.

Why was the time moving so slowly?

Lu Chenjun stood up abruptly and marched out of his office.

"Fang Shi, let's go."

Fang Shi looked up from the contract he was reading and said, "Mr. Lu, it's only five right now. I already set almost everything up, so we don't have to go that early."

A thin dark line appeared across Lu Chenjun's face and his voice lowered, "We have to set everything up. Early is better than on-time."

Fang Shi grudgingly stood up and followed Lu Chenjun into the elevator.

No one was in the restaurant when they arrived except for a few workers and the chefs. A row of workers and the manager of the restaurant were lined up outside to welcome Lu Chenjun upon hearing about his early arrival.

The money they earned today from Lu Chenjun was much more than the money they would normally earn in a week!

Lu Chenjun's black car came into a stop in front of the restaurant and he got off without waiting for Fang Shi.

"Welcome, President Lu."

The manager stretched one hand out and matched up with Lu Chenjun's quick pace into the restaurant, "May I ask why you are here so early today?"

"No."

The manager gulped and looked down, uneasiness written all over his face.

Lu Chenjun was examining the roses Fang Shi bought when he received a message. He pulled out his phone while tearing off one petal which was slightly withered.

He opened his phone and finally moved his gaze away from the bouquet.

His face immediately darkened when he saw the image, and the temperature in the restaurant seemed to lower a few degrees.

Lu Chenjun threw the petal onto the ground and made a call. Before he could speak, the woman on the other end of the phone did first.

"Did you receive my message?"

Lu Chenjun had a face like thunder when he asked, "Where did you get that picture from?"

"Where do you think?"

Chu Hua's speaking became faster and her voice higher, "Chenjun, Jin Yinghui is just a vixen. See, she's already going around seducing other men even though she hasn't broken up with you yet. She doesn't deserve you, Chenjun."

Lu Chenjun screwed up his face and commanded, "Delete the picture."

With that, he hung up the phone and looked back down towards the roses.

Fang Shi could sense something was wrong with his boss, but he didn't have the courage to ask what it was.

Lu Chenjun tried to control his feelings and kept repeating to himself to ask Elena about the picture during their dinner.

He didn't want to believe something he didn't see with his own eyes. Although the picture was clear enough, he didn't want to believe it.

'Zhang Bing!' The image and the jealousy were tearing through his brain, engulfing all of his other thoughts.

Lu Chenjun took a deep breath and walked towards the door.

"Finish setting everything up, I'll be back."

He walked out of the restaurant and disappeared into his car.
