Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 82 First Love
Wei Qingsong gently patted his back and said softly, "I won't leave, I'll never leave again."

As if comforted, Lu Jingming slowly straightened up.

The two had been moving quite vigorously, and Wei Qingsong's clothes were somewhat disheveled, with the top two buttons of her shirt undone.

Looking at her bright red lips, now ravaged, Lu Jingming's mouth was dry. His gaze inadvertently shifted downwards, his eyes darkening, and his Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably.

He tried his best to restrain himself, buttoning her clothes up for her, then stepped back, his eyes slightly lowered: "I'm sorry, I was a little irrational just now, did I hurt you?"

Seeing Wei Qingsong so intimate with that man, jealousy mixed with drunkenness overwhelmed his pride in reason, and he couldn't control his emotions, overturning his rules of conduct.

"It's okay, I like your irrationality." Wei Qingsong smiled slyly, her two crescent-shaped eyebrows slightly raised, lively and alluring.

Lu Jingming: "..."

If this continues, he's afraid he'll lose control again.

Lu Jingming looked away, his voice low and hoarse: "Let's go back."

"Oh," Wei Qingsong replied in a drawn-out tone, following Lu Jingming back. She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Lu Jingming, what is our relationship now?"

She had wanted to ask this question for a long time, but had never had the right opportunity.

Lu Jingming was not good at expressing himself. Upon hearing this, he paused slightly, then suddenly reached out his warm palm and covered her fair and soft hand, firmly interlocking his fingers with hers. His gaze was clear and gentle: "Songsong, you should know that I am not a reckless person. I would only do such a thing to my lover."

The word he used was "lover," not "soulmate" or "girlfriend."

In Wei Qingsong's heart, "lover" is a solemn word, the most resolute choice after careful consideration.

She chuckled softly and squeezed his hand back: "I understand, my love."

She repeated his name, the simple words uttered with unparalleled tenderness.

Back in the private room, everyone was still chatting and laughing enthusiastically, but no one noticed the two people's hands clasped tightly together.

Only after the two were seated did Chen Jin look over with a grin: "Captain Lu, Sister Wei, you're finally back! We were just saying that drinking alone isn't fun, and we wanted to play Truth or Dare. These kinds of games are more fun with more people, do you want to join?"

Seeing the expectant looks from everyone, Lu Jingming replied calmly, "I'm fine with anything."

The private room immediately erupted in excitement. Everyone hurriedly cleared away the plates and bowls, placed a wine bottle on the table, and decided whoever the bottle's opening was to carry out the task, with the person opposite them proposing the specific method.

The game went on for several rounds, but neither Wei Qingsong nor Lu Jingming became the "chosen one".

Just as she was secretly rejoicing, the rapidly spinning wine bottle on the table slowly came to a stop, pointing directly at her.

Wei Qingsong: "..."

Murphy's Law is absolutely true.

Wei Qingsong smiled calmly, but her smile froze slightly when she saw who was sitting opposite her.

She hadn't noticed before that the person sitting opposite her was actually Zheng Xun.

Zheng Xun raised an eyebrow with a mischievous glint in his eye: "Advisor Wei, truth or dare?"

"Let's take a dare." Wei Qingsong smiled calmly.

She firmly believed that nothing good could come out of a dog's mouth, and rather than be asked some strange and tricky questions by him, she would rather take a risk. After all, in front of so many people, he couldn't let her do anything out of line.

Zheng Xun's eyes darted around, and he already had an idea in mind.

Based on his observation, Lu Jingming and Wei Qingsong were definitely up to something. He knew that Bai Rushuang liked Lu Jingming, and he figured he should at least get revenge for Bai Rushuang.

Young Master Zheng has embarrassed many people, and he knows the ropes well.

Then, he flashed a wide, eight-toothed smile: "How about this, Consultant Wei, in front of everyone, you call your first love and tell him you miss him. What do you say?"

Zheng Xun was making his plans. He thought that if Lu Jingming were Wei Qingsong's current boyfriend, he would definitely feel uncomfortable seeing Wei Qingsong calling her first love. Who knows, the two of them might even argue about it when they got back.

In this way, he achieved his goal.

Chen Jin: "Pfft."

He was drinking when he nearly choked on his drink.

Xiao Song, who was standing next to him, gave him a strange look: "Brother Chen, this kind of game is very common. Haven't you seen this kind of occasion before?"

Chen Jin forced a smile; he had never seen such an occasion before.

Wei Qingsong's first love, wasn't he sitting right next to her?
Her story with Lu Jingming was once a beautiful tale, widely circulated on campus forums.

He cautiously looked up at Lu Jingming, only to see that Lu Jingming's face was as calm as still water. He picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and looked completely natural.

Whether it was Chen Jin's imagination or not, he felt that Captain Lu seemed to have smiled when he was drinking.

He rubbed his eyes and looked again; Lu Jingming still looked calm.

Chen Jin thought to himself that he probably drank too much.

He then secretly glanced at Wei Qingsong, whose expression remained calm and indifferent.

She was prepared to be harassed, but she didn't expect Zheng Xun to act so unpredictably.

Is it too late to choose truth or dare now?
As if he had foreseen this, Zheng Xun raised his head and said provocatively, "It's just a game, Consultant Wei, you're not going to be a sore loser, are you?"

"No, not at all. Of course I can afford to play this game. I'm just worried that my first love might not be able to handle it." Wei Qingsong smiled with narrowed eyes, composed and unhurried.

"Pfft." Chen Jin almost choked again.

Sister Wei also made some surprising remarks, but to be fair, Captain Lu really doesn't have much of a sense of humor.

Xiao Song quickly reached out and patted his back, saying worriedly, "Brother Chen, you've been staying home for too long. You need to come out and meet with us more often to broaden your horizons, otherwise you'll always be so easily startled."

In the three months since joining the team, Chen Jin has never participated in any of the team gatherings, because he has to go home to be with his wife.

Xiao Song thought to himself that this must be the reason why Chen Jin couldn't keep up with the pace of life of young people.

Chen Jin glanced back at him and said, "You're something else, kid. You dare to talk to your seniors like that now."

Xiao Song lowered his head in fear and dared not speak again.

Director Zheng rolled his eyes at Zheng Xun: "Why are you making a fuss here? Making someone call their first love is so awkward. What if they're already married? Wouldn't that be a huge blunder? Hurry up and find someone else."

"No, she chose Truth or Dare herself, no one forced her. It's just making a phone call, why are you dawdling like this? Can't we even play?"

Zheng Xun has always been an unruly individual, so he completely ignored Director Zheng's advice.

He looked at Wei Qingsong defiantly and grinned smugly.

"Go ahead and fight," Lu Jingming said calmly, taking another sip of his drink.

Everyone was shocked and turned to look at Lu Jingming.

In their minds, Captain Lu was an unapproachable figure who would never even make a joke on a normal day, yet today he actually joined in the commotion.

After spending these past few days together, everyone could see that the atmosphere between Lu Jingming and Wei Qingsong was becoming increasingly ambiguous and natural.

His current actions are indeed puzzling to everyone.

Who would lead the way in encouraging their crush to call their first love?
It's difficult to solve, really difficult to solve.
