Reborn Girl’s New Life

Chapter 627 Set Some Group Rules

Song Yunxuan didn't expect that Lu Feng would ask for that.

Song Yunxuan slightly frowned while looking at Lu Feng.

Lu Feng smiled, saying, "Neither of us is married, so won't it be a great idea for us to unite by marriage?"

Though Song Yunxuan had just turned Lu Feng down, she did not immediately give up the idea in her mind.

Song Yunxuan remained silent for a moment.

Seeing that, Lu Feng continued, "In the past, you wanted to depend on the Chu Family to help you beat down Shao Tianze. But now the Chu Family can't help you anymore. Therefore, if you won't cooperate with me at the crucial moment, the Shao Family will become more and more powerful. You will not get the chance to eradicate the Shao Family anymore."

Song Yunxuan lowered her eyes, remaining silent for a long time.

Meanwhile, Lu Feng seemed to understand what was on Song Yunxuan's mind, saying, "I know your sudden engagement to me will provoke many baffled comments as Chu Mochen has just died. I can wait for you."

"Wait for me?"

Song Yunxuan looked at Lu Feng, asking.

Lu Feng smiled, replying, "Yes. I'll wait until no one mentions your engagement to Chu Mochen. By then, I'll announce our engagement."

Song Yunxuan was weighing up the pros and cons.

Seeing that Song Yunxuan remained silent, Lu Feng asked Song Yunxuan again, "I can help you to release your pressure by doing this. Do you agree?"

"I don't want to."

Song Yunxuan put the cup in her hand onto the table, getting up and saying, "Excuse me."

Not only didn't Song Yunxuan want to ally with Lu Feng by marriage, but she also immediately left the flower hall after refusing Lu Feng.

Just at that moment, Tan You was talking to Yan Jin. She was a bit stupefied on seeing Song Yunxuan coming out of the flower hall.

Tan You said to Yan Jin, "Excuse me for a moment."

"OK."

Yan Jin didn't ask where Tan You was going. But he could almost guess it by looking at the direction where Tan You was heading.

Yan Jin thought Tan You was probably going to Lu Feng.

Sure enough, Tan You went to see Lu Feng.

Tan You pushed open the glass door of the flower hall.

And she saw that Lu Feng was admiring flowers and drinking tea by himself.

"So… Song Yunxuan didn't agree?"

"I believe she'll think about it."

Lu Feng was calm, though he hated being refused.

If the person who refused him was Song Yunxuan, Lu Feng was not as vexed as imagined.

"Song Yunxuan is of use to you. You will have more chances to grow increasingly powerful in Yuncheng in the future if you and Song Yunxuan are connected by marriage."

"Actually, I don't lack a woman like Song Yunxuan."

Lu Feng gently sighed.

Then he turned to look at Tan You, saying, "It'll be the same if I marry you."

Hearing that, Tan You smiled, saying, "Really?"

"Of course. I don't play jokes."

Tan You shook her head, saying, "Even if you want to marry me and I'm happy about it, I dare not agree to marry you considering my lifelong happiness."

Lu Feng chuckled.

"Why not? You only have to marry me. I won't eat you."

Tan You smiled, replying, "I want to marry a man who loves me. If I'm the only woman in his heart, that'll be better."

Hearing Tan You's words, Lu Feng ceased to smile.

Noticing Lu Feng's nuance of expression, Tan You prepared to leave, saying, "I'll help you talk Song Yunxuan round."

With this, Tan You walked out of the flower hall.

…

After leaving the flower hall, Song Yunxuan immediately found Mei Qi.

Seeing that Song Yunxuan left the flower hall, Mei Qi asked her, "Manager Song, what did Lu Feng say to you?"

Song Yunxuan answered casually, "He wanted me to marry him."

Hearing that, Mei Qi couldn't help frowning.

"What did you reply to him?"

Song Yunxuan said casually, "What do you think?"

Actually, Mei Qi didn't have to ask Song Yunxuan such questions. From what Mei Qi knew of Song Yunxuan, she would not accept Lu Feng's overtures so rashly.

But it would do no good to Song Yunxuan if she turned Lu Feng down.

Mei Qi frowned, reminding Song Yunxuan, "Lu Feng can be a good prop for the Song Family."

"I know."

Song Yunxuan surely understood the plain fact.

It was just that she didn't want to transfer her affections from Chu Mochen, who had just died, to Lu Feng so soon.

Song Yunxuan pressed her lips without speaking. She was considering whether she should leave early from the Lu Family's banquet.

Just at that moment, Tan You greeted Song Yunxuan.

"Manager Song?"

Hearing that, Song Yunxuan looked in Tan You's direction.

And she saw that Tan You was coming her way.

Mei Qi had guessed that Tan You must have come to persuade Song Yunxuan into accepting the marriage. After pondering for a moment, Mei Qi left for now.

Seeing that Mei Qi left, Tan You turned to look at Song Yunxuan, asking, "Did you just refuse Mr. Lu, Manager Song?"

"What do you refer to?"

Song Yunxuan kept her statement intentionally vague.

Tan You smiled, replying, "Don't you know clearly about what I refer to?"

"You mean the cooperation between the Song Family and the Lu Family?"

"The marriage between the Song Family and the Lu Family."

Tan You came straight to the point, "Actually, in such circumstances, you can only benefit if you choose to ally with Mr. Lu by marriage."

Song Yunxuan slightly lowered her eyes, hiding the nuance of expression in her eyes.

Indeed, getting on well with Lu Feng in the present situation was the best plan.

The Lu Family was a new-rising force.

If the Lu Family couldn't have brought a great difference in the fight between Song Yunxuan and Shao Tianze, Song Yunxuan could have ignored Lu Feng.

However, no one could trifle with the new-rising force.

If Song Yunxuan accepted Lu Feng's offer, she could probably beat down Shao Tianze because of having Lu Feng's support.

But if she didn't accept it…

"I don't know about your plans. But I can at least tell that you want to swallow up the Shao enterprise, right?"

Tan You asked Song Yunxuan.

Song Yunxuan lifted her eyes, looked at Tan You, and asked, "What do you think?"

"It's OK if you don't give me a direct answer. In my view, you want to swallow up the Shao enterprise. Besides, it has been your goal from the beginning, right?"

Rarely had Tan You told Song Yunxuan's mind.

Instead of denying it heartlessly, Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, "Yep."

Tan You continued, "Manager Song, I chose to side with you from the time I refused to be together with Shao Tianze. In the present situation, if you don't beat Shao Tianze and let him have the upper hand, not only you will live a miserable life, I will also suffer hardships."

Business was a competitive activity. It was as fierce and unforgiving as a battle.

Tan You chose to side with Song Yunxuan from the beginning.

If Song Yunxuan was defeated, Shao Tianze would definitely turn to settle with Tan You after getting rid of Song Yunxuan.

By then, not only Tan You, but Yan Jin would also be Shao Tianze's target…

Tan You reminded Song Yunxuan, "By then, the people that chose to side with you will all be in trouble."

Tan You said neatly and had analyzed the pros and cons clearly.

Song Yunxuan became silent without immediately replying to Tan You. Then Tan You continued, "You should spare a thought for us. Aren't we your partners?"

Song Yunxuan looked at Tan You, seemingly moved.

There was something in what Tan You said. No matter Tan You, Guo Yuyue, or Yan Jin, all of them had become Song Yunxuan's partners when they chose to side with Song Yunxuan.

They were all in the same boat. If Shao Tianze flipped the boat, none of them could escape unscathed.

They would all be screwed.

Tan You looked at Song Yunxuan, saying, "Mr. Lu is a good partner, one way or another. Besides… Childe Chu has died. You should plan your future now."

Song Yunxuan lowered her eyes, replying, "I don't have plans for the future."

"About your lifelong happiness…"

"Chu Mochen… is my lifelong happiness."

"But what about Lu Feng…"

"I'll go talk to him."

Song Yunxuan had already figured out a way to cope with Lu Feng. After finishing talking with Tan You, she went straight to the flower hall where Lu Feng was at.

Lu Feng knew that Tan You could make Song Yunxuan return to him when Tan You left.

So Lu Feng had been waiting for Song Yunxuan in the flower hall without moving.

After pushing open the door of the flower hall, Song Yunxuan met Lu Feng's gaze.

And Song Yunxuan found that there was a shadow of a smile in Lu Feng's eyes.

"So… you knew that I would return?"

"Why shouldn't you return? If such a force like me chooses to support Shao Tianze, you will have a strong opponent."

Lu Feng was right about that.

If Lu Feng chose to back up Shao Tianze, he would be Song Yunxuan's opponent.

He would be a very tough opponent.

Song Yunxuan smiled, replying, "I know our marriage will just be built on the basis of interests."

"Or what?" Lu Feng asked, looking at Song Yunxuan with particular interest, "Or why do you think I will ally with you by marriage?"

He meant that he didn't want to get romantically involved with Song Yunxuan.

Song Yunxuan was satisfied with Lu Feng's reply.

So she nodded, saying, "Fine. I agree on the marriage."

Lu Feng was slightly stunned, "You agree?"

"Yes." Song Yunxuan confirmed.

If Song Yunxuan could ruin the Shao Family by cooperating with Lu Feng without paying anything else except a marriage, why wouldn't she?

"You will be my wife if you marry me."

"I know."

"Have you ever thought of…"

Song Yunxuan suddenly spoke before Lu Feng finished his words, "I'd like to set some ground rules first."

Lu Feng frowned, asking, "Ground rules?"

Lu Feng didn't expect that this woman would suddenly say something like that.

Song Yunxuan came straight to the point, "I know you are in love with someone. Unfortunately, so am I. Thus our marriage will only be based on interest. Neither of us should get romantically involved with the other in case of trouble. So how about setting some ground rules? Do you think it's OK, Mr. Lu?"
