Chapter 1030: Laying a Trap for Her (10)
Su Weiyi exchanged a glance with Lu Zhang, then looked at the police to understand the situation. She found out that the two men injured by Lu Zhang were habitual robbers who had stolen something from him. Lu Zhang acted in self-defense, but since he injured someone, the police station required someone to come and take him.
Su Weiyi quickly settled everything; Lu Zhang’s injuries weren’t serious, just some scraped skin, and the police station’s doctor had already treated him. With this delay, it was already after six o’clock when the two left the station.
Su Weiyi soon received a call from Miss Tang. She briefly explained the situation, and Miss Tang said over the phone, "Since he’s your friend, bring him over. Let’s all have a lively gathering."
Su Weiyi felt a bit awkward. Although they were friends, Lu Zhang used to like her, and bringing him back like this felt a bit ambiguous.
Su Weiyi opened her mouth intending to refuse, but the words twisted around: "I’ll ask him first."
She then put down the phone and looked at Lu Zhang: "Today is my mom’s birthday, she invites you to come over, would you like to go?"
Lu Zhang was momentarily stunned, looking at Su Weiyi, and asked in return, "Are you comfortable with it?"
Su Weiyi understood his meaning; if she found it awkwardly ambiguous, he wouldn’t go, but he didn’t mind attending.
With things said this way, Su Weiyi had no more to say, and besides, Sheng Yanxiao might bring that Yue Wei person over today too.
Su Weiyi pressed her lips together and spoke: "Mom, we’ll be there shortly."
Lu Zhang’s eyes flashed with a hint of a smile, although he looked quite disheveled now, which wasn’t very polite for attending a banquet.
The two drove towards Lake Bay Villa, and as they passed a series of commercial areas, Lu Zhang suddenly said, "Wait, stop for a moment."
As soon as Su Weiyi stopped the car by the roadside, Lu Zhang jumped out. She watched him walk into a sizable flower shop, quickly came out, and then entered a clothing store two shops down.
In less than fifteen minutes, Lu Zhang emerged wearing a sleek new suit, holding a large bouquet of flowers.
"There’s no time to buy a gift, but I can’t go empty-handed."
Su Weiyi smiled and continued driving. She generally drove slowly for safety, but since they were late today, they couldn’t keep everyone waiting.
Su Weiyi deliberately drove a bit faster; fortunately, they didn’t encounter traffic jams along the way.
When they arrived at Lake Bay Villa, Su Weiyi had just exited the car when she saw the place was brightly lit and heard faint sounds of laughter and chatter.
Su Weiyi took out her gift from the trunk, and Lu Zhang naturally took it over.
"No need, I can..."
"Let me."
The two entered side by side, and as they stepped past the foyer, everyone in the living room simultaneously looked over.
This was her home, but for some reason, Su Weiyi felt a surge of tension, especially when her eyes unintentionally met Sheng Yanxiao’s, heightening that tension.
Su Weiyi thought she must be out of her mind. Why, just because Sheng Yanxiao might bring Yue Wei back, did she have to bring Lu Zhang?
There were undoubtedly many people in the villa, including the Sheng Family, the entire Zhou Family, and Si Nian, Si Xia, Chen Ajia, and Lu Yuewei.
"Xiao Yi is here too, now everyone is here, let’s eat."
This was a very small birthday party, not extravagant, but because of the number of people, it appeared quite lively.
