Welcome to "I'm Trapped in the Same Day for a Thousand Years," exclusively produced by Feilu Novel Network. Narrated by Sang Ze Wang Xiaomo. "I haven't gone the wrong way, "Lao He Su Qingying, who was about to close the door, suddenly stopped, paused for a moment, and then looked at Wu Yurong, asking with a surprised smile, "Ms. Wu. Wu, did you make an appointment with Mr. Wu. Wu Chen, or with Miss Li?"

Su Qingying subconsciously wanted to hide the truth, so she corrected her way of addressing Wu Chen.

Wu Yurong, however, was gentle and sweet; she had nothing to hide.

Wu Yurong knew about Su Qingying's relationship with Wu Chen, so Wu Yurong could tell that Su Qingying definitely didn't know about her relationship with Wu Chen, otherwise she wouldn't have acted like that. She thought Su Qingying had gone to the wrong place, so she must have made an appointment with Wu Chen.

As Su Qingying spoke, he led Mu Qingqing inside again, naturally without letting the bodyguards follow. They all stayed outside. After the door closed, Su Qingying was still somewhat surprised. He then thought he must have misunderstood. It wasn't a private gathering; it was probably related to business. Wu Chen had invited a lot of people to discuss matters together.

For Su Qingying, he absolutely dared not speculate that Wu Yurong and Wu Chen could have anything going on, and he would never think in that direction. Given Wu Yurong's past and behavior, it was simply impossible.

Since his divorce, Wu Yurong has been pursued by numerous billionaires with assets worth billions over the past ten years, but none of them have worked out, Wu Yurong remains single.

Moreover, Su Qingying respects Wu Yurong very much and will subconsciously address her as "you" (您). This is not just a matter of politeness, because Wu Yurong is not only an elder, but also a strong woman whom her father, Su Ruiwen, highly praises.

In the East Sea alone, Wu Yurong can be considered the most capable female entrepreneur, without exception.

This is a female entrepreneur whom even Su Ruiwen, the richest man in the East Sea, respects.

This respect is not because Wu Yurong is more successful in business Su Ruiwen, but because as a woman, it is many times more difficult for Wu Yurong to achieve her refined and sophisticated status in the male-dominated business world than for a man, and it is even more difficult for her to succeed. Therefore, she is more worthy of respect.

Su Qingying also had respect for Wu Yurong.

Su Qingying casually found a seat and sat down, and Mu Qianqian followed Su Qingying and sat down in the seat next to her.

She is Boss Mu's daughter.

Your name is Qianqian, right? Do you still recognize me?

Wu Yurong spoke to Mu Qianqian in a gentle voice.

Wu Yurong certainly knew Mu Sihai and had also seen Mu Qianqian at some banquets. She knew Aunt Wu well; she had a very wild personality.

Mu Qianqian was particularly well-behaved in front of Wu Yurong. She had never dared to speak to Wu Yurong before, and she didn't even dare to offend Su Qingying, let alone Wu Yurong, who was an elder in terms of age.

He had heard of the Black Widow legend.

Hello, Qianqian.

Wu Yurong stopped smiling and nodded, then glanced at Su Qingying before scrutinizing Mu Qianqian.

Mu Qianqian is really pretty, the kind of girl who's very cute.

She wasn't wearing makeup or dressed up specially today; she was just wearing a loose white chiffon blouse and a light blue skirt, looking particularly youthful and full of energy.

Su Qingying was clearly dressed up carefully, wearing a black halter-neck evening gown that exposed her shoulders, and diamond pendants adorned her slender arms.

The makeup looked very light, but Wu Yurong could tell that it was an effortless look. His wavy hair made his face appear smaller, and he looked ethereal.

It was precisely because Su Qingying was dressed very formally, as if attending a banquet, while Mu Qianqian seemed to be dressed casually.

This makes it impossible for Wu Yurong to directly determine whether Mu Qianqian and Wu Chen have that kind of relationship.

What she didn't know was that Mu Qianqian deliberately didn't wear makeup. She liked smoky eyes, especially, but Wu Chen didn't, saying that she didn't look that pretty with smoky eyes, so she didn't wear them.

Su Qingying also told Mu Qianqian that the most important thing for girls her age is to be naturally ambitious and have invincible youth.

Recently, Mu Qingqing has learned a lot from Su Qingying.

Qianqian, how long have you known Wu Chen?

Wu Yurong suddenly and casually touched Wen Muqianqian again.

We met on July 7.

It's been more than ten days.

Mu Qianqian then answered.

Wu Yurong's smile flickered slightly.

Su Qingying glanced at Wu Yurong, assuming that Wu Yurong was just asking casually to avoid an awkward silence.

He didn't know the relationship between Wu Yurong and Wu Chen, so he wouldn't have guessed that Wu Yurong was trying to trick him into revealing that Mu Qianqian had come with Su Qingying.

Wu Yurong directly asked him how long he had known Wu Chen, and Mu Qianqian was able to answer immediately, even specifying the date clearly, indicating that he and Wu Chen might have had a private relationship, rather than through Su Qingying.

Considering that tonight's dinner was a get-together because Wu Chen had just returned from Magic City.

Isn't Mu Qianqian an outsider?

Qianqian is currently interning at my company and is working as my assistant.

Su Qingying spoke up.

I'm just trying to have a casual chat, so don't let the conversation go cold.

Yeah?

Wu Yuerong glanced at Mu Qianqian again, his smile widening. He knew that Mu Qianqian and Su Ruiwen weren't that close, and Mu Qianqian shouldn't be familiar with Su Qingying either. So why were they on good terms now?

Wu Yurong already guessed why. She heard that Miss Su had officially taken over the company. Congratulations!

Wu Yurong continued.

Thanks.

Su Qingying smiled politely.

How is Boss Su's health?

I haven't seen him for a while.

Wu Yurong asked again.

It turned out that my dad, Su Qingying, mentioned it, and they really started chatting casually.

The topic was led by Wu Yurong, and Su Qingying dared not act rashly in front of Wu Yurong.

Meanwhile, outside the main entrance of Mingzhen Building downstairs, a blue Lamborghini was parked on the side of the road, but the people inside did not get out of the car.

It's Zhuang Xiaodie.

Wu Chen called him about half an hour ago, asking him to drive to Mingzhen Building to have dinner together. He also told him that the Lamborghini car keys were in the bedroom closet drawer, so Zhuang Xiaodie drove over.

Before arriving, he called Wu Chen and learned that Wu Chen hadn't arrived yet, so he didn't get out of the car and waited for Wu Chen downstairs.

More than ten minutes later, a convoy of luxury cars drove past the intersection ahead and stopped by the roadside outside the Civil Affairs Building. Wu Chen and Li Ruobin got out of the car, and Zhuang Xiaodie saw them and got out of the Lamborghini.

Wu Chen had naturally noticed his Lamborghini and waved to Zhuang Xiaodi.

Mr. Wu, Miss Li.

Zhuang Xiaodie came over to greet the two. If Li Ruobing hadn't been there, he would have definitely taken Wu Chen's hand directly, but with Li Ruobing present, he probably wouldn't dare to leave. Relax.

Wu Chen smiled at Zhuang Xiaodie, then turned to exchange a glance with Li Ruobing. The three of them walked towards the door, with Li Ruobing holding Wu Chen's arm, while Zhuang Xiaodi walked a little to the side to go upstairs.

Soon, the three arrived at Blossoms in Prosperity.

Outside the Private Dining Room, Wu Yurong and Su Qingying's bodyguards were all standing at the door, and they all recognized Wu Chen.

The female bodyguard Chu Yan, nodded first, greeted them softly, and then pushed open the door to the Private Dining Room.

Upon entering the Private Dining Room, Su Qingying and Wu Yurong stopped talking and stood up at the same time, looking at the three people who had entered.

Su Qingying spoke first, saying, "Miss Ruobing is here, Mr. Wu."

He even nodded to Wu Chen, pretending to be a guest, all for Wu Yurong's benefit.

Of course, he couldn't let Wu Yurong know about his relationship with Wu Chen.

Wu Yurong walked directly around the table towards Wu Chen.

The sword and blade gate closed, Wu Yurong walked up to Wu Chen. She then hooked her arms around Wu Chen's neck, seemingly oblivious to the stares of those around them, her eyes filled only with Wu Chen's tenderness and sweetness, and asked, "Did you miss me?"

After saying that, he kissed her directly, offering up silence.

Li Ruobing was still holding Wu Chen's hand.

Mu Qianqian looked completely bewildered, and Su Qingying also looked bewildered and extremely shocked.

Li Ruobing glanced at Wu Yurong, who had come up with Wu Chen, and narrowed her eyes slightly. Wu Yurong really didn't care who was there. She didn't even know who the other girl who came in with Wu Chen and Li Ruobing was, yet she still dared to talk to Wu Chen directly in front of everyone.

Actually, he had already figured it out: the people at the gathering today were probably all Wu Chen's women, which is why he didn't care at all.

Wu Yurong was incredibly sweet. She kissed Wu Chen for a few seconds and then let go, before giving Wu Chen a gentle smile and glancing at Li Ruobing —just a fleeting glance.

He didn't provoke Li Ruobing with his eyes, but his actions depended on Li Ruobing's reaction.

What else could Li Ruobing think?

Neuropathy!

It turns out that Li Ruobing truly admired Wu Yurong, but that admiration is no longer there now, and she doesn't want to have much interaction with Wu Yurong anymore.

Standing to the side, Zhuang Xiaodi watched the situation without feeling anything. She only knew that the woman in front of her, who was probably twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, more beautiful than herself, and with an amazing temperament, was also one of Wu Chen's lovers. That was all.

He didn't know Wu Yurong's identity, so he wouldn't have any other thoughts.

Su Qingying and Mu Qianqian were both completely bewildered and utterly shocked.

I can't quite process what's happening.

Mu Qingnian's expression was even more exaggerated, his eyes wide open, but in reality, Su Qingying was more shocked. She naturally understood Wu Yurong better than Mu Qingqing, so she felt that the most unbelievable thing had happened.

Wu Yurong no one, no matter their status or how powerful they were, could not be won over by Wu Chen, was won over by Wu Chen.

The atmosphere in the Private Dining Room was very strange. Zhuang Xiaodie watched the commotion, Su Qingying and Mu Qianqian were dumbfounded, and Li Ruobing was expressionless. "Sit down, everyone. Don't stand, sit down!"

Wu Chen smiled calmly, gestured, then took two steps toward Mu Qingqing and pulled up a chair to sit down next to Mu Qingqing.

Li Ruobing, who was holding Wu Chen's hand, sat down next to Wu Chen.

Wu Yurong didn't try to take Li Ruobing's seat; he wouldn't have gone so far as to be so rude.

Zhuang Xiaodie sat on the other side of Li Ruobing, while Wu Yurong returned to her original seat.

The final seating order was Su Qingying, Mu Qianqian, Wu Chen, Li Ruobing, Zhuang Xiaodie, Wu Yurong, and Wu Yurong, with Su Qingying on the left. The six of them sat in a circle around the table.

This order was orchestrated by Wu Chen. The reason he sat next to Mu Qianqian was mainly because he was definitely going to be next to Li Ruobing. Whoever sat next to him became very special. Whether it was Su Qingying or Wu Yurong, it would make the person who wasn't sitting next to Wu Chen feel uneasy.

Since Wu Chen Zhuang Xiaodie didn't know Zhuang Xiaodie, he didn't want her to attract hostility from other women as soon as she arrived, so Mu Qianqian was the most suitable.

Neither Li Ruobing nor Wu Yurong felt that Mu Qianqian posed any threat, let alone Qingying.

After everyone sat down, Li Ruobing immediately took out tissues from her bag, then reached out, pinched Wu Chen's chin and twisted it, while using her other hand to wipe Wu Chen's mouth with the tissues, which ended up smeared with Wu Yurong's lipstick.

Wu Yurong watched Li Ruobing's actions without changing her expression.

While wiping Wu Chen's mouth, Li Ruobing glanced at Wu Chen from the other side.

Looking at Mu Qianqian, she knew that this was Mu Sihai's daughter, but she didn't know that Mu Qianqian had this kind of relationship with Wu Chen before; she only found out recently.

Mu Qingqing did know that Li Ruobing was Wu Chen's official girlfriend; Su Qingying had told him this.

One thing worth mentioning is that Su Qingying already knows that Li Ruobing and Wu Chen have officially established a relationship.

On the very day Wu Chen left East Sea, Li Ruobing made a lunch appointment with Su Qingying.

At the dinner table, Li Ruobing bluntly told Su Qingying they were really in love and no longer pretending to be a couple.

The two had a good talk about this matter and finally reached an agreement to keep to themselves and not interfere with each other.

Li Ruobin's explanation was that as long as Su Qingying also affected him and Wu Chen, then it didn't matter.

Su Qingying had no objection to this; his relationship with Wu Chen couldn't be made public anyway, and he needed Li Ruobing to cover for him.

The Private Dining Room was quiet; no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere was still off.

Zhuang Xiaodi, being observant and perceptive, naturally dared not speak rashly.

After wiping Wu Chen's mouth, Li Ruobing glanced around the table, noting that there were five women in total, including herself.

Is that all there is?

Did Wu Chen have any other women?

Have no idea.

Li Ruobing was unable to make a judgment.

Qianqian, what's wrong?

Why that expression?

Wu Chen looked at Mu Qianqian and smiled as he spoke.

Mu Qianqian was still in a daze, her mind completely blank.

He didn't answer.

Wu Chen, are you crazy?

Wu Chen teased him with a smile, while simultaneously pinching Mu Qingqing's cheek.

Wu Chen didn't try to hide his gaze at all.

At that moment, Su Qingying suddenly understood everything, and realized what kind of gathering this was.

"Honey, you and Ms. Wu, you've both spoken up, "Su Qingying said, controlling her emotions and even smiling as she asked Wu Chen, before gesturing to Wu Yurong.

Wu Chen looked at Su Qingying and nodded with a smile.

Su Qingying called him "husband" now; she'd seen through it all and stopped pretending.

The atmosphere in the Private Dining Room changed again after Su Qingying called him "husband," and it became much more relaxed.

They're all Wu Chen's women, we've already laid it all out, what's there to be nervous about?

Zhuang Xiaodie had some strange thoughts; she couldn't believe that such important people and noblemen had such messy private lives.

Let's order.

Wu Chen glanced around again and said.

Call the waiter in.

Li Ruobing and Wu Yurong looked at the two menus first, and then passed them around.

After the waiter left, the group started chatting while waiting for their food.

Jingying, how's your salary lately?

Is there something wrong with the Board of Directors?

Wu Chen asked Su Jingying.

No, my husband took care of everything for me. They wouldn't dare.

Su Qingying smiled at Wu Chen.

Honey, you haven't told Qingying about us, have you?

Wu Yurong spoke up.

Without?

Wu Chen looked at Wu Yurong and smiled, "I invited you all here today. It was a good opportunity to get to know each other again and avoid unnecessary trouble in the future. I really didn't expect Ms. Wu be here too."

Su Qingying looked at Wu Yurong and spoke.

There's nothing we can do about it; Mr. Wu is just that special.

Wu Yurong smiled sweetly and they started chatting.

The focus of the conversation was Su Qingying, because Li Ruobing didn't want to talk to Wu Yurong, so the two of them remained silent.

So as the atmosphere improved, Su Qingying had to talk to both Li Ruobing and Wu Yurong.

More than ten minutes later, Li Ruobing was talking to Su Qingying, while Mu Qingqing was whispering in Wu Chen 'Wu Chen ear.

Miss Zhuang is studying acting, so you want to be an actress in the future.

Wu Yurong was talking to Zhuang Xiaodie. She was sitting next to Zhuang Xiaodie, so it was easy for her to talk to Zhuang Xiaodie. She had already asked Zhuang Xiaodie's name and learned that Zhuang Xiaodie was in college.

Zhuang Xiaodie was also with Wu Chen. She seemed unfamiliar with everyone and never spoke to anyone on her own initiative, as if she were being neglected. Wu Chen was watching.

Wu Yurong, who is very good at interpersonal relationships and has excellent communication skills, took this into consideration and took the initiative to talk to him.

Someone's phone rang; it was Wu Yurong's. Everyone stopped talking. "Excuse me," Wu Yurong said first, then took her phone out of her bag, glanced at it, and answered, "Xuanxuan, what's wrong?"

Is this Song Xuan's mother, his daughter? Are you eating at Mingzhen Building?

I saw your car downstairs, Song Xuan.

Yes.

Wu Yurong initially agreed, but her expression immediately changed, and she asked again, "Are you downstairs?"

While asking the question, Wu Yurong glanced at Wu Chen.

This concludes this episode. We hope you'll continue listening!
