The man continued to follow Su Bei and stood next to her. He wasn’t doing anything, but one could see from his eyes that he was constantly looking for an opportunity to make a move. It was obvious that he was used to preying on women. In a shop like this, he could hope to find good-looking women, but many were hard to win over.

However, he would sometimes succeed, so he believed that Su Bei wouldn’t be able to remain firm and would regret her refusal just now.

Su Bei handed the watch to the cashier and handed him a card.

The cashier swiped the card with a smile and told her, “Miss, I’m sorry. Your card balance is not enough.”

“I’m sorry. Please wait for a moment.” It was only then that Su Bei remembered she had transferred all her money to Lu Heting’s card before she went to the United States. That card, along with the PIN code, was in the drawer of his room.

She only kept enough money with her to travel to the United States for a few days. After all, she didn’t think she would be coming back alive.

Now, she only had a few thousand yuan on her card. She could afford to ride a bus or buy some groceries, but she couldn’t afford to make big purchases.

“Gorgeous, let me help you pay. It’s just a watch, isn’t it?” The rich second-generation heir handed her his card with a confident smile on his face. However, his demeanor was too perverted, so his smile made others uncomfortable.

“No, thank you.” Su Bei’s tone was a little stiff. What was wrong with this man? Did he not understand human language?

With a determined smile, the rich second-generation heir said, “I don’t mind buying a few more for you, beautiful.”

He didn’t mind spending more money on her.

Su Bei gave him a cold look. The rich second-generation heir took a few steps back, but he didn’t stop there. It seemed that he was waiting to see what Su Bei would do next.

Su Bei took out her phone and dialed Lu Heting’s number.

At this moment, Lu Heting was still in the middle of a meeting with the company’s senior executives.

After staying in the United States for more than ten days, he had a lot of work to handle. Now that he was back, he had to deal with everything at once. Until now, the meeting hadn’t ended yet.

As he was not satisfied with the report, his expression was no longer as warm as the spring breeze when he first arrived at the company today. He had returned to his usual cold and serious demeanor. He was like an iceberg, causing the atmosphere in the meeting room to freeze.

No one dared to breathe too loudly. They were all thinking about their own work, afraid that if they made a mistake in their report, Lu Heting would react violently.

His phone was on silent mode. When the call came, he immediately saw that it was from Su Bei.

The light from the screen was not too sudden. But when he saw the name on the screen, his focus was immediately drawn. His face was filled with warmth and tenderness.

He subconsciously swiped the screen of his phone and touched the speaker button.

“Hubby, I don’t have enough money to buy anything..”

It was Su Bei’s soft and tender voice. From her tone and words, it sounded as if it was only right for Lu Heting to give her money to spend.

Lu Heting immediately turned off the loudspeaker function, gestured for the meeting to stop, and strode out of the room.

All the senior executives heaved a sigh of relief. As soon as Lu Heting stood up and left, it was as if the dark clouds in the meeting room had lifted as well, allowing them to relax.
