A man trying to seduce the police captain: Captain Lu, you're doomed!

Just then, a small commotion suddenly broke out in the Western restaurant, accompanied by a few low gasps.

"Wow, this woman is so beautiful, she looks just like a big star!"

Lu Chenyuan and Lin Man turned their heads to look at the same time.

A figure stood backlit at the doorway.

A red strapless dress accentuated her shapely figure.

Her skirt trailed on the ground, swaying gently with her steps like a burning flame.

The woman wore exquisite makeup, with upturned eyes that gave her a captivating and alluring look.

With bright red lipstick on her lips, she was stunningly beautiful; it was Su Wan.

Lin Man's face instantly darkened, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on Lu Chenyuan's hand.

What's Su Wan doing here?

Her unease instantly intensified, and the sweetness and courage that had just surged within her were extinguished in an instant by a bucket of cold water.

Su Wan was actually there to discuss work.

Her real estate marketing and planning company is currently promoting a river-view high-rise and villa project.

Today I'm here to discuss a group-buying partnership with an important client representative.

The client's representative preferred a romantic setting, which is why they chose this Western restaurant.

The project negotiations went smoothly, and after seeing the client off, she was about to return to her seat to have something to eat.

Unexpectedly, when I turned around, I saw Lu Chenyuan and Lin Man in the corner.

What's even more jarring is that they are holding hands and sitting together, the scene looking incredibly harmonious.

Su Wan felt as if something had stabbed her heart, causing a sharp, throbbing pain.

She knew perfectly well that Lu Chenyuan was on a date with Lin Man, and she knew perfectly well that she shouldn't have come to disturb them.

But his body seemed to be out of his control, and he walked straight toward their table.

She couldn't tolerate Lu Chenyuan being gentle with other women, especially when she had just begun to see hope.

Walking to the table, Su Wan didn't think twice. She reached out and grabbed Lu Chenyuan's wrist, forcefully separating his hands from Lin Man's.

Her strength wasn't great, but it carried an undeniable force.

"oops."

Su Wan wore a bright smile, but her tone carried a hint of mockery.

"It's quite unseemly to do this in public, Captain Lu. Having dinner with your girlfriend? What a coincidence, I just finished dealing with a client. My table has already been cleared. Why don't I join you guys?"

As she spoke, without waiting for their agreement, she pulled out the chair between Lu Chenyuan and Lin Man and sat down.

The long red dress spread out, clashing with the romantic atmosphere around it, yet exuding a flamboyant sexiness.

Lin Man's face turned completely cold.

Her gentle nature doesn't mean she has no bottom line.

She could consider it an accident that Su Wan bothered her at the barbecue stall yesterday.

Today, just when she and Lu Chenyuan were finally having a romantic moment, Su Wan came out and ruined it again, which made her lose all patience.

"Miss Su."

Lin Man's voice remained soft and gentle, yet carried a subtle hint of firmness.

"Yesterday is fine, but today I'm on a date with my boyfriend, so it's not convenient for you to join us."

She looked up at Su Wan, her eyes carrying a hint of aloofness and warning.

"You're so pretty, I'm sure you have plenty of people around you, so stop bothering my boyfriend. He already told me yesterday that he has absolutely no interest in you."

These words, though seemingly mild, are utterly insulting.

It's as if they're saying Su Wan is a woman nobody wants, so she has to cling on relentlessly.

Su Wan seemed not to understand, ignoring Lin Man and instead turning to look at Lu Chenyuan.

His eyes gleamed with a stubborn and burning light, and his tone carried a hint of provocation.

"Really? Captain Lu, you have absolutely no interest in me?"

The images of the bar involuntarily replayed in her mind—

His tense body, heavy breathing, and obvious physiological reactions.

How could I possibly have absolutely no interest?

She just wouldn't believe in superstition.

In her entire life, Su Wan had never fallen in love with anyone at first sight like this, nor had she ever exhausted all her passion and courage for anyone.

Lu Chenyuan is the first, and he will be the last.

She won't turn back until she hits a wall, and even if she does, she'll tear it down and keep moving forward.

Lu Chenyuan's face was so dark it could drip water.

He could feel Lin Man's gaze, filled with expectation and grievance.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the irritation and inexplicable panic in his heart, and spoke in a cold and hard voice, matching Lin Man's words.

"My girlfriend is right, I have no interest in you whatsoever, and I believe that anyone with self-respect would choose to leave."

His words were like a sharp knife, piercing Su Wan's heart.

Looking at Lu Chenyuan's cold eyes, at Lin Man's victorious posture beside him, and then at the red wine and roses on the table, she instantly understood.

He genuinely wanted to develop a good relationship with Lin Man, and he truly wanted to push her away completely.

A wave of sorrow welled up in my heart, and my eyes instantly reddened.

Although Su Wan is strong-willed, it would be a lie to say she wasn't heartbroken in the face of such a blatant rejection and humiliation.

She didn't want to show weakness in front of these two people, and she didn't want them to see her crying.

Before the tears could fall, she had to leave and compose herself.

Su Wan suddenly stood up, forced a calm smile, and said in a seemingly composed manner.

"In that case, I won't bother you any longer. I'll go to the restroom first and then come back to say hello later."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked quickly toward the restroom without waiting for their response.

The red skirt traced a resolute arc in the air, and her silhouette still looked flamboyant from behind.

But only she knew how frantic her steps were and how much pain she felt in her heart.

Entering the restroom, Su Wan locked the door behind her, leaned against the door, and could no longer hold back her tears.

She raised her hand to cover her mouth to stop herself from crying out loud, but her shoulders trembled slightly uncontrollably.

Lu Chenyuan, do you really hate me that much?

Even if you had a physical reaction to me, it was just a momentary impulse, right?

But I'm really not willing to accept this.

After crying for a while, Su Wan wiped away her tears and took a deep breath in front of herself in the mirror.

She looked at the woman in the mirror, her eyes red-rimmed yet still radiant and beautiful, and the vulnerability in her eyes was instantly replaced by stubbornness.

So what if I got rejected? It's not a big deal.

Su Wan is not someone who can be easily defeated.

Lu Chenyuan, do you want to have a proper date with Lin Man?

I won't allow it.
