Chapter 149: Huo Ruilin Society is dead
"Go over now, assert your sovereignty, and tell those women that you are Song Zekai's girlfriend. They will definitely back off."
Hearing this, Huo Ruilin immediately refused, "Isn't this bad? I used this trick last time to send away Brother Zekai's blind date, and he told me at the time that I couldn't do this again next time."
"Is he angry?" Jiang Lu couldn't help but ask.
Huo Ruilin shook her head, "No."
"That's it. Since he's not angry, he must have approved of your behavior. If he wasn't interested in you, he would have lost his temper right there and then."
Huo Ruilin was a little shaken after hearing Jiang Lu's words, but she was still not sure. "Is that really the case? Why do I feel like he just doesn't want to bother with me?"
Jiang Lu held Huo Ruilin's hand. "Hey, don't be so unconfident. You have to believe in your own charm. Look, Mr. Song is handsome and rich, there must be a lot of women around him who like him. If you don't take the initiative, he will be snatched away by others."
Huo Ruilin bit her lip and looked in Song Zekai's direction, feeling conflicted. "But I still don't dare..."
Jiang Lu sighed helplessly, "Are you just going to watch him being snatched away by another woman? Are you willing to accept that?"
Huo Ruilin's heart tightened. She certainly didn't want to give up. She thought about it and finally mustered up the courage. "Okay, I'll try."
Jiang Lu smiled with satisfaction. "That's right. Come on, sister! I'll be waiting for you here."
Huo Ruilin took a deep breath and walked towards Song Zekai.
Her heart was beating fast and her palms were sweating from nervousness.
"Brother Zekai..." Huo Ruilin mustered up the courage and called Song Zekai's name.
Hearing the voice, Song Zekai and the women turned around almost at the same time and looked at Huo Ruilin who was walking towards them.
"Rui Lin, why are you here?"
There was a glimmer of surprise in Song Zekai's eyes.
When the women saw Huo Ruilin, they looked puzzled.
One of the women, who looked more mature and steady, couldn't help but ask, "Zekai, who is this?"
Song Zekai frowned slightly. Before he could answer, Huo Ruilin smiled and said, "Hello! I'm Brother Zekai's girlfriend."
"Girlfriend?" Everyone looked at Song Zekai in disbelief.
Seeing this, Song Zekai quickly waved his hands and tried to explain, "Um, sister, she is not..."
Before Song Zekai could finish his words, Huo Ruilin immediately took Song Zekai's arm affectionately and said with a smile: "Brother Zekai, didn't you tell them that I'm your girlfriend?"
After saying that, Huo Ruilin looked at the three women in front of her, her eyes full of provocation.
Song Zekai looked at Huo Ruilin, with a hint of helplessness and doting in his eyes.
He sighed softly and did not continue to deny it.
The woman whom Song Zekai called "sister" frowned slightly and looked up and down at Huo Ruilin.
“Zekai, when did you get a girlfriend? Why didn’t you tell your family?” The woman’s tone was filled with a hint of blame.
Song Zekai smiled awkwardly, "Cousin, I forgot to introduce you, this is Huo Ruilin, Huo Jingchen's sister."
"Cousin?" Huo Ruilin was immediately surprised when she realized that the mature and steady woman in front of her was Song Zekai's cousin.
Then, she realized that she had just mistaken Song Zekai's cousin for a love rival, and suddenly felt socially doomed.
At this moment, Huo Ruilin was digging her toes into the ground in embarrassment. She quickly stretched out her hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Hello, cousin! My name is Huo Ruilin!"
"Are you Huo Jingchen's sister?" Song Zekai's cousin looked at Huo Ruilin with a more scrutinizing look in her eyes.
Huo Ruilin nodded, "I am."
My cousin was a little surprised and couldn't help asking, "I didn't expect you to be Huo Jingchen's sister. I often heard our Zekai mention you. But you just said you are Zekai's girlfriend, what's going on?"
Huo Ruilin's face suddenly turned red, and she stammered, not knowing how to explain.
Seeing this, Song Zekai quickly came out to smooth things over. "Cousin, don't get me wrong, Ruilin was just joking."
My cousin raised an eyebrow. "Are you kidding? I don't think so."
Huo Ruilin felt even more embarrassed and wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
She let go of Song Zekai's hand, lowered her head and whispered, "Cousin, I'm sorry, I was just impulsive."
My cousin smiled and said, "Young people are full of energy. But Zekai, if you are not interested in that girl, you should make it clear as soon as possible, so as not to cause misunderstandings."
Song Zekai glanced at Huo Ruilin with a complicated look in his eyes. "I understand, cousin."
My cousin looked at the two of them again, then said to the other two women, "I've already picked out the gift for my mother-in-law, let's go shopping somewhere else!"
The two women were my cousin's friends, and the reason why Song Zekai was here was because my cousin's mother-in-law was having a birthday and she wanted to pick out an expensive gift for her. She couldn't make up her mind, so she asked Song Zekai to come along and give her some advice.
So, the scene just now where Song Zekai tried the jewelry on his cousin happened. Huo Ruilin and Jiang Lu misunderstood and thought that Song Zekai was exuding his playboy charm to flirt with girls again, and he brought a group of women to buy jewelry.
"Cousin, what about me?" Song Zekai asked hurriedly.
The cousin looked at him, then looked at Huo Ruilin, and said with a smile on her face: "You young people, have fun together! My sister and I will leave first."
After her cousin and her friend left, Huo Ruilin breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, her heart was in her throat, and she quickly apologized to Song Zekai: "Brother Zekai, I'm sorry! I didn't know that the person just now was your cousin, I..."
If she knew, she would never come over to assert her sovereignty in front of them. It would be really socially humiliating and embarrassing!
Jiang Lu saw them leave and then came to Huo Ruilin.
"Lulu, it's all your fault for giving me such bad advice. You've made me lose face."
Jiang Lu suppressed her laughter and said, "Rui Lin, I'm sorry, I didn't know that person was Mr. Song's cousin!"
After listening to the conversation between the two, Song Zekai finally figured out what was going on.
Song Zekai looked at Huo Ruilin's embarrassed look, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "Okay, don't blame yourself. It's actually no big deal."
Huo Ruilin looked at him with a red face. "Really? Brother Zekai, you are not angry?"
Song Zekai shook his head, "I'm not angry, but don't be so impulsive in the future."
Huo Ruilin lowered her head and bit her lip gently, "I know."
Jiang Lu watched them from the side and couldn't help laughing.
"The atmosphere between you two is kind of sweet."
Huo Ruilin glared at Jiang Lu and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
Song Zekai also coughed uncomfortably and changed the subject: "Well, what are you doing here?"
Huo Ruilin quickly took the gift from Jiang Lu, took it out, and showed the safety lock she bought.
"Brother Zekai, this is the full-month gift I prepared for my nephew and niece."
"They're quite exquisite. Since you're here, please help me pick one! After all, I'm the child's godfather!" Song Zekai saw that Huo Ruilin had prepared a full moon gift, so as Huo Jingchen's good brother and the child's godfather, he must also have a gift.
