Affection? Song Jia almost couldn’t breathe. No wonder Lu Zhen looked so abnormal. It was indeed the wine. Looking at the straightforward Jiang Kai in front of him, Song Jia didn’t know what to say. He said calmly, “Alright, there’s nothing else for you to do. Go and play.”

Jiang Kai said unhappily, “What kind of tone is that? Why do you sound like you’re patronizing a child?”

Song Jia glanced at him and couldn’t be bothered to say anything else. He turned around and left.

Lu Zhen waited in the private room for a while. Before Song Jia returned, she felt a little nervous and uneasy. Song Jia had actually been angry for so long because of her words? Could it be that he wasn’t coming back?

Lu Zhen slowly propped herself up and wanted to leave the private room, but as soon as she stood up, she felt that she had lost her ability to control her balance and fell to the side.

As soon as Song Jia entered, he saw Lu Zhen sitting on the ground. He was shocked and hurriedly helped her up. “What’s wrong? Did you fall?”

Lu Zhen’s body was soft, her cheeks were red, and her eyes were unfocused. She leaned against Song Jia, her consciousness clearly in a mess. Her voice carried a hint of grievance and anxiety. “l didn’t mean that. Don’t be angry…”

Song Jia’s heart softened and he immediately said, “I’m not angry.”

Lu Zhen looked completely unconvinced. Usually, when a woman was angry, she would say that she was not angry. It should be the same for a man, right? Moreover, before Song Jia left the private room, she clearly felt that Song Jia’s mood had become low.

“I’m not blaming you. I just…” Lu Zhen said. Her mind was stuck again, and she did not know how to explain. She frowned and tried to think of a way to express herself.

Song Jia was helpless and heartbroken. He asked gently, “Were you injured when you fell? Does it still hurt?”

Lu Zhen looked up and tried to focus her blurry eyes on Song Jia!s face, but she failed. She felt that she might lose her ability to think soon. What kind of wine was this? Why was the aftereffect so strong? “No, it doesn’t hurt,” Lu Zhen said in a low voice.

Song Jia nodded. “Alright, I’ll send you back. Walk slowly.”

Song Jia supported Lu Zhen and placed his other hand on Lu Zhen’s arm. His strength was neither light nor heavy. He was very restrained and knew his limits. After getting into the car, Song Jia said to the chauffeur, “Drive slowly.”

The chauffeur glanced at the rearview mirror and didn’t say anything. He was hired by Jiang Fei, so he naturally knew that Song Jia was very familiar with Jiang Fei and could be trusted. However, the chauffeur was conflicted. Should he tell Jiang Fei that Lu Zhen had met Song Jia tonight?

Just as the chauffeur was conflicted, Lu Zhen suddenly said that the car was too stuffy and reached out to open the door. Song Jia pulled Lu Zhen back and held her hand. He rolled down the window a little and said in a low voice, “It’s already opened. Don’t move.”

Lu Zhen took a deep breath. Her muddled mind recalled Song Jia’s dim eyes and dull tone before he left. Her heart suddenly ached and she hugged Song Jia. “Don’t be angry…”

Song Jia and the chauffeur were stunned. The chauffeur hurriedly straightened his back and sat very upright. He pretended that he was definitely not eavesdropping or peeking and tried his best to act like a stiff wooden person.

Song Jia was stunned for a few seconds with mixed feelings. Initially, he should have been happy to be hugged by Lu Zhen, but he thought about how Lu Zhen was unconscious now, and he did not want to take advantage of her when she was drunk, he pried Lu Zhen’s hand away.

However, Lu Zhen misunderstood Song Jia. She thought that Song Jia wanted to push her away because he hated her.

Lu Zhen suddenly felt very sad, flustered, and aggrieved. Song Jia was usually too good to her. She had never thought that Song Jia would hate her. Was it because her temper was too bad? She took advantage of the fact that he was always accommodating to her and blamed him instead?

He had set off the fireworks to celebrate her birthday, and he had gone to the Polytechnic University to take her around the campus. He did all these things for her. However, she was a celebrity, so these things were followed by netizens and magnified countless times on the Internet.

Why did she blame Song Jia?

Song Jia’s action of pushing her away made Lu Zhen a little sad. If it were the usual Lu Zhen, she might retract her hands in disappointment and remain silent.

But she was drunk now and her rationality was gone. Her subtle emotions were magnified countless times. She only had one clear feeling in her heart: She did not want to lose the person in front of her.

Lu Zhen retracted her arm even more tightly, looking like she would never let go.

Song Jia did not expect Lu Zhen to have such a reaction. The two of them hugged each other in the backseat. The scene was extremely ambiguous..
