Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Introducing Her to a Potential Partner

So Su Lu couldn’t muster a smile, just slightly hooked the corners of her lips, without making much noise.

Qiao Li, though, caught on. "Oh, right."

He looked at Su Lu and Su Zhe, "You both know about the opening banquet for Boss, right? Are you two going?"

Qiao Li tilted his head towards Su Lu, "That girl Xu Ning under you, she can handle the gifts quite well."

Then he turned to Su Zhe, "If you’re going, do you need me to help prepare the gifts?"

Qiao Li was originally poached by Su Zhe to assist Su Lu, having been a capable general under Su Zhe before, dealing with these matters on his behalf.

Su Zhe pondered for a moment, curled his lips, shook his head, and his lack of interest was not difficult to discern from his expression, "I’m not interested, I won’t go."

He had deep-seated prejudices against Bo Jingshen, and it was only out of consideration for Su Lu’s feelings that he agreed to let her undertake the esports project—if it were otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have approved of her participating in it at all.

So Qiao Li asked Su Lu, "Lulu, you’re going, right? After all, there is the project collaboration."

Su Lu paused for a moment, then nodded lightly, "Yes, I’m going."

Qiao Li’s eyes curved as he smiled at her, in a very ’feigned flattery’ manner, "Do you need a male companion? I’ll go with you."

Su Lu was taken aback, her eyes slightly downcast, smiled faintly, "Let’s not... Given the current situation, it wouldn’t be appropriate."

"Not appropriate?" Qiao Li blinked, seemingly not grasping the underlying meaning of Su Lu’s words.

From the side, Su Zhe spoke up, "It’s because of her situation with Gu Xin. That kid’s actions were underhanded and unclean, and have caused our Lulu to be in a position where she cannot afford to be the subject of gossip."

Qiao Li caught on—while outsiders might not be aware of the situation between Su Lu and Gu Xin, given his close relationship with Su Zhe, he was very much in the know.

"That makes sense," Qiao Li nodded.
