I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 348 A Mutual Argument Behind a Screen
An Xin called Zhang Jiajia over, clearly intending to provoke Feng Yuzhi. Wei Lin also noticed that Zhang Jiajia had a bit of a crush on An Xin.

However, with Wei Lin's keen insight, he could tell at a glance that An Xin truly loved Feng Yuzhi.

Using Zhang Jiajia to provoke Feng Yuzhi is not a bad thing, but An Xin has never been able to get rid of his habit of fawning over women.

In Wei Lin's view, if An Xin truly let go of Feng Yuzhi, he could do whatever he wanted without any problem.

but it is not the truth.

If Wei Lin were in charge, and if he still wanted to win Feng Yuzhi over, An Xin shouldn't have treated Zhang Jiajia this way. Instead, he should have instructed Zhang Jiajia to serve him tea and water.

An Xin should act nonchalantly, so that Feng Yuzhi can see that Zhang Jiajia is interested in him, while An Xin himself should act as if he is completely unaware.

Thus, Zhang Jiajia and Feng Yuzhi become competitors, allowing An Xin to reap the benefits.

"After studying for so many days, I still haven't grasped the essence!"

Wei Lin sighed inwardly.

"Wei Lin, I also want to apologize to you!"

Lin Ping suddenly stood up, picked up the glass of red wine and pointed it at him from a distance, her beautiful face full of apology: "It was my fault! In the future, I will never talk nonsense in front of Coach He again!"

She downed the drink in one gulp, then licked the remaining wine stains from the corner of her lips, exuding a seductive charm.

Wei Lin politely took a sip, but did not stand up.

Zhang Jiajia is a clever girl. As soon as she saw Lin Ping, this alluring woman, acting this way towards Wei Lin, she immediately knew that Lin Ping was infatuated with Wei Lin.

"Sister Xiaozhi, I toast you!"

Zhang Jiajia gently stood up and raised a toast to Feng Yuzhi from a distance, saying, "Brother An said you used to be his goddess. Brother An has such good taste, Sister Xiaozhi is indeed beautiful!"

She was at most a year or two younger than Feng Yuzhi, but she called her "Sister Xiaozhi" repeatedly, as if afraid that others wouldn't know that Feng Yuzhi was older than her.

Feng Yuzhi said politely, "You are very beautiful too."

From the moment An Xin led Zhang Jiajia in, her smile was rather forced, and she was extremely embarrassed throughout.

Seeing An Xin treat Zhang Jiajia the same way he had treated her, Feng Yuzhi felt very uncomfortable.

She kept drinking the red wine in her glass.

Lin Ping looked suspicious.

She thought An Xin had come here by invitation to rekindle his romance with Feng Yuzhi, but to her surprise, An Xin brought another young girl with looks that were just as good as Feng Yuzhi's.

Judging from An Xin's demeanor, he clearly prefers Zhang Jiajia and wants to be friends with her.

The young girl seemed to have a bit of a crush on An Xin, always smiling and accepting his various advances.

"What's going on? Did An Xin make such a fuss just to deliberately humiliate Xiao Zhi?"

"If he's not interested in Xiaozhi, he could simply stop contacting her altogether. Why is he doing this?"

Lin Ping muttered to herself.

"Come on! Let's all have a drink!"

Feeling smug and self-satisfied, An Xin stood up and urged everyone to drink, and even Zhang Jiajia stood up as well.

He was clearly drunk and felt he had finally gotten his revenge, so he was shouting loudly.

……

another side.

Li Yao frowned, annoyed by the noise from the next private room.

He and Liu Yue had finished discussing their business, and he had also persuaded Liu Yue to drink most of a bottle of red wine. Seeing that Liu Yue's face and neck were flushed, he prepared to talk about topics related to men and women.

“Attorney Liu, you should know what I’m thinking, I think…”

As he spoke, he placed his hand on Liu Yue's left hand, making a pulling motion.

He would never have dared to do this before he had drunk too much, after all, Liu Yue had already given him hints, both openly and subtly, that he would never go looking for a married man.

Although he is currently going through a divorce, he has not actually gotten a divorce yet.

Liu Yue immediately became alert, subtly withdrawing her hand and coldly saying, "President Li, we only have business between us, let's not talk about anything else!"

"In my opinion, the problems between you and your wife are not irreconcilable. It's normal for couples to argue. You have children and significant financial entanglements, so there's really no need for that."

"Mr. Li, I advise you to reconsider!"

She'd seen plenty of male clients like Li Yao who had other ideas about her over the years, and she was used to it.

She always handles things very well, preventing the other party from having any improper thoughts.

"Cough cough."

Seeing Liu Yue's indifferent refusal, Li Yao felt a little embarrassed. Just as he was about to say a few words to smooth things over, he heard An Xin yelling from next door, which made him even more annoyed.

"Attorney Liu, is that the man next door named Wei Lin?"

Li Yao's eyes showed curiosity. Before Liu Yue could answer, he said, "I'm also familiar with the other lawyers in your firm. I heard a rumor recently that you..."

Liu Yue's expression changed, and she angrily said, "Who told you that?!"

Li Yao looked embarrassed and was about to explain that An Xin had started causing trouble while drunk again.

He was so annoyed that he went to the screen and started banging on it, yelling at Wei Lin's private room, "It's so noisy! Can you please keep it down?"

……

The two private rooms, separated by a screen, fell completely silent.

An Xin, who was feeling quite pleased with himself, was already quite drunk at this point. He was stunned when he heard Li Yao's angry shouts.

Even with the enhancement of a fruit, he's still a timid person at heart, and that won't change anytime soon. Just like how he kept fawning over Zhang Jiajia at the dinner table.

At this moment, after being criticized by Li Yao, he did not dare to respond immediately.

He frowned, looking slightly hesitant, because he didn't know how many people were in the next private room, nor did he know their identities or backgrounds.

Wei Lin knew that Liu Yue was next door, and that alone was enough.

Even without An Xin's commotion and Li Yao's shout, he would have wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble and annoy the other party.

Li Yao's shout was exactly what he wanted!

"Everyone……"

When An Xin spoke again, his voice was indeed lower, as if he wanted everyone to restrain themselves a little.

On the other side, Li Yao immediately showed a smug look.

However, the next moment.

"Do you own this restaurant? What's wrong with me talking a little loudly while I'm eating and drinking? If you want a quiet place, why did you choose Chuanxiangju?"

"An Xin! Keep making a scene, keep arguing! I want to see what he can do!"

Wei Lin responded with an even louder voice.

Li Yao's face suddenly darkened.

Upon hearing Wei Lin's shouts, Liu Yue recalled the things Wei Lin had done at her law firm, and her expression turned even colder than Li Yao's.

An Xin said weakly, "Brother, is it really necessary?"

"What do you mean it's unnecessary? If you think it's noisy, just go eat somewhere else!"

"This is just a hole-in-the-wall restaurant, not some five-star hotel private room. Who's going to tolerate his bad behavior!"

Wei Lin was annoyed by Liu Yue and assumed her male companion was the same. Since the other party was making trouble for no reason, he naturally had to rise up and respond.

"Bang bang bang!"

Wei Lin suddenly stood up and began pounding on the screen, shouting as he did so, "We can't keep our voices quiet!"

Li Yao took a deep breath and roared from next door, "Fuck your mother!"

He had been thinking about Liu Yue for a long time. He heard from other lawyers at Simin Law Firm that Liu Yue had a former lover, and it seemed that the other party was a married man.

And he is now.

During the meal, he secretly listened to Wei Lin's movements. He heard Lin Ping, Feng Yuzhi, and others mentioning Wei Lin's name from time to time. In addition, Liu Yue's expression was a bit off, so he concluded that Wei Lin was Liu Yue's ex-boyfriend.

When he tried to flirt with Liu Yue, she firmly rejected him, leaving him with no way to break through.

Meanwhile, Wei Lin's voice was getting louder and louder, which naturally made him even more unhappy.

"You fucking dare come over here!"

Li Yao roared angrily.

He was in the earthwork and sand business and was familiar with some of the shady characters in Linjiang City. He had spent some time in the underworld in his early years, so he naturally had his own confidence.

Therefore, even though he knew there were many people in the opposite compartment, including at least two men, he was still fearless.

"Brother Wei, it can't be that bad!"

"Brother Wei! No!"

The next moment, he heard the women in the next private room trying to dissuade him.

Li Yao laughed heartily, sitting upright in his private room, and grinned at Liu Yue, saying, "He makes hats, right? If I remember correctly, it's called something like Xinlin Hat Industry?"

"Heh, what's with this small hat shop owner acting all high and mighty in front of me?"

“Attorney Liu, you should know what I do! In Linjiang City, not many people dare to cause me trouble!”

The voice was very loud.

Not only could Liu Yue hear it, but he believed that everyone in the next private room could also hear it clearly.

Liu Yue grew anxious and said with dissatisfaction, "President Li, no matter what you do, I don't want you to cause trouble! Wei Lin and I have nothing going on! Don't let your own selfishness and dissatisfaction lead to things that shouldn't happen!"

She really disliked Wei Lin, but she still didn't want a meal to turn into a big fight between the two in the restaurant.

She knew that Li Yao had some connections, but Wei Lin did too!

Her uncle, Tong Jianlin, had already told her in detail about Wei Lin's various connections. Even her uncle admitted that he was no match for Wei Lin, so what made Li Yao so special?

Because she also knew Li Yao, she knew that Li Yao didn't have as much influence as her uncle, and she was worried that if something happened, Li Yao wouldn't be able to handle it.

"Attorney Liu, don't worry about it! I'll handle this!"

Li Yao laughed even more unrestrainedly and said, "You better keep an eye out for me later! If he comes looking for me on his own, then there's nothing I can do! I'll try not to make the first move, but if a fight breaks out, I'll claim it's for self-defense!"

The more Liu Yue tried to stop him, the more he felt that Wei Lin was no important figure, and the more he wanted to make a scene with Wei Lin to demonstrate his powerful background in Linjiang City.

In addition, he felt that Liu Yue was worried about Wei Lin and still had feelings for Wei Lin.

This is also one of the reasons why he is even more eager to take on new challenges.

"boom!"

The door to VIP room 121 was suddenly pushed open, and Wei Lin strode in, taking three steps to stand in front of Li Yao.

"I am coming."
