After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 166 - : Times Have Changed
Chapter 166 -166: Times Have Changed
Is it him?
The man from the bar that day!
Song Keren’s brows furrowed instantly.
Xiao Jinglan sat next to the sofa, and when she noticed Song Keren’s voice suddenly stopped, she couldn’t help but look up at her, catching sight of the photo she was viewing.
“Isn’t this man quite handsome?”
“…”
Song Keren slightly furrowed her brows, “Well, he’s alright…”
She tried her best to appear as though she wasn’t familiar with Justin at all, replying nonchalantly, fearful that Xiao Jinglan might notice something amiss.
“Keren, take a closer look; he has blonde hair and blue eyes, a very handsome appearance, and he’s quite accomplished for his age, also serving as the regional vice president of XJ Group.” Xiao Jinglan seized the opportunity to introduce Justin to Song Keren.
After all, she was thinking about how to bring him up to Song Keren since they were bound to meet, and surprisingly, she saw him in the photos from Xia Wenjin’s party.
It really was like finding what one seeks without even searching.
Song Keren also seemed surprised by Justin’s identity, her eyes widened in astonishment as she looked again at the photo, “Are you saying this man is the regional vice president of XJ Group?”
Regarding XJ Group, she knew they almost rivaled Song Group internationally.
Her eyes blinked, and though he was only a regional vice president, he was still hundreds of times better than those unknown small company presidents in the country.
After the fiasco at her welcome party last time, she knew Xiao Mo was looking to marry her off.
As long as it helped him, he didn’t care whom she married.
Her mother wanted to stop it, but in the end, she would surely listen to Xiao Mo’s decision.
This Justin probably was one of the people Xiao Mo wanted to connect with.
He was handsome and the regional vice president of XJ Group, so if she truly couldn’t marry Song Sinian, marrying him wouldn’t be a bad choice.
Seeing Song Keren taking an interest in Justin, Xiao Jinglan nodded repeatedly, “Right, in a few days he’ll be attending a dinner, and Xiao Mo will take you there. You can meet Justin and see if you like him. Then, maybe your mother can give you a little push from behind?”
Song Keren’s lips curved slightly, “I think he looks quite good.”
After all, he was the man she had spent the night with, and she still had the clothes she took from the hotel last time; he’d surely be surprised when they met again?
As they had felt quite good about each other before, perhaps this marriage could be settled soon.
With the status of being the wife of the regional vice president of XJ Group, she wouldn’t have to fear being troubled by Xiao Mo anymore.
It would also be easier to establish herself in the entertainment industry, not too bad…
The next day, in the cool breeze of the early morning.
Because it had rained a little last night, the sky remained overcast till the morning.
Zhao Xi gently knocked on the office door and entered, “Sir, Lu Dagui has arrived.”
Yesterday, Lu Zhaozhao attended the party prepared by Lu Family for Xia Wenjin, which caused an uproar.
Since last night, the whole trending search had exploded.
Although Lu Family tried hard to pull down the trending search, with Song Family and Xia Family joining forces, they couldn’t make a dent.
Xia Wenjin, who had been so proud on Weibo before the party, was now being criticized severely.
Lu Dagui was clearly unable to stay put, so was that why he came directly to the Song Group to discuss matters with their Mister?
“Let him in.”
Song Sinian replied indifferently and then gestured to Zhao Xi to let the person in.
Soon, Lu Dagui was wheeled in.
His leg had healed considerably, but just yesterday, he had forced himself to stand for a while at Xia Wenjin’s banquet, without using a wheelchair or crutches.
Unexpectedly, once Lu Zhaozhao arrived, the entire banquet hall went into chaos, and in his haste, he fell and exacerbated his injury.
Therefore, he had no choice but to use the wheelchair again.
He was pushed into the office by his accompanying assistant, his face grim.
Zhao Xi glanced at Lu Dagui and couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
Initially shamelessly trampling on their lady, and now facing backlash, he still had the gall to be angry, pah!
If not for professional ethics and the face of their Mister, he’d have loved to spit on his face.
Seeing Lu Dagui’s face still grim, Zhao Xi coughed lightly, “President Lu, our Mister’s time is precious, if you don’t have anything important…”
“I, of course, have something important.” Lu Dagui said, taking a check from his pocket and handing it to his assistant.
The assistant quickly handed the check to Zhao Xi.

Seeing the amount on it, Zhao Xi couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. It was the money their Mister had previously loaned to the Lu Family.
He had even returned it with interest.
Zhao Xi’s eyelids drooped, and he took the check and placed it on Song Sinian’s desk.
Lu Dagui crossed his hands and looked at Song Sinian, uttering each word deliberately, “President Song, this is the money the Lu Family owed you. I have now repaid it in full, and from now on, the Lu Family no longer owes the Song Family anything.”
His tone was very impolite when he said this, showing none of the submissiveness he had when he previously approached the Song Group for a loan.
Song Sinian glanced at the check and then looked at Lu Dagui, his voice cold, “So what?”
“So, apart from business interactions, the Lu Family has no further ties with the Song Family. Mr. Song, there’s no need to hold a grudge against the Lu Family because of some people.” Lu Dagui stared at Song Sinian, his attitude noticeably more arrogant.
He had borrowed money from Song Sinian because the Song Group was the only company that could lend them such a large sum.
Moreover, at that time they were competing for mining resources, and others who could lend him money were competitors of the Lu Group, so they would definitely not help him.
But now it was completely different; times had changed.
He had secured two highly sought-after mining resources, and everyone in the Shangjing Circle knew he was going to prosper–they were too late to curry favor with him.
So, he casually spoke to those previous individuals, and they immediately came forward to willingly lend him money.
They simply wanted a share of the profits from the mining resources he controlled.
While he wouldn’t divide the mining resources themselves, he still had control over to whom he’d sell the mined jade material first.
Even if Song Sinian wanted to strike at him, there was no stopping his financial avenues, which was why Lu Dagui was so rude to him.
Song Sinian glanced at Lu Dagui, “I have never been interested in your Lu Family. If you had not attacked my woman, none of this would have happened.”
His implication was clear: it was they who first attacked Lu Zhaozhao, prompting his retaliation.
This made Lu Dagui even more irritated. He sneered at Song Sinian, his voice cold, “All for that bitch Lu Zhaozhao, President Song wasted so much resources. It’s really just to see a beauty smile, throwing caution—and money—to the wind!”
Song Sinian’s face immediately darkened, and he abruptly stood up from his office chair, rushing forward in a few strides and grabbed Lu Dagui by the throat—
