Chen Wei could now tell that Tan Rui had feelings for him in that way.
However, aside from just breaking up with Xu Lili and developing a vague fondness for Lian Yingying, Chen Wei instinctively felt resistant towards Tan Rui as a person.
Chen Wei was well aware that Tan Rui wouldn't have looked at him if he hadn't made some money.
Having just gone through the breakup with Xu Lili, Chen Wei didn't want to get involved with someone who was only interested in money.
Moreover, he could see that Tan Rui was quite scheming.
It's not that Tan Rui had bad qualities, but rather that such a woman wasn't suitable for him.
He preferred to find a girl with a simple mindset.
A girl he could trust completely.
No suspicion, no guard, just the ability to entrust everything to her.
Essentially, he, Xu Lili, and Tan Rui were similar types of people.
Perhaps they could be good business partners, but they were not suitable for a relationship together.
Chen Wei could easily see through Tan Rui's intentions when she spoke to Wang Li just now.
In essence, Tan Rui was just playing a little smart game.
Chen Wei didn't like it.
Tan Rui could sense Chen Wei's displeasure from his gaze.
Tan Rui felt somewhat annoyed with herself.
Xu Lili had warned her not to play clever tricks in front of Chen Wei, but she hadn't taken it seriously at the time. Now she could see that Xu Lili's advice was correct, and Chen Wei saw through her little tricks right away.
It even aroused Chen Wei's dislike.
Tan Rui inwardly sighed, realizing that she needed to change her approach. It was best to be more honest with Chen Wei to have a chance at success, otherwise, it would backfire.
After hearing Chen Wei's words, Wang Li nodded without asking further questions.
She had already made up her mind and wouldn't agree to that Luo Chen.
Luo Chen sat there with a somewhat cold expression.
After Liu Jia and her bridesmaids finished dancing, four of the six bridesmaids returned.
Not only did Wang Li and Tan Rui not come over, but they also went directly to Chen Wei's side.
If Wang Li and Tan Rui had sat with Jiang Chen and the other girls, Luo Chen wouldn't have had any thoughts.
It was normal for classmates to sit together and chat on such occasions.
However, Wang Li and Tan Rui didn't sit with Jiang Chen and the others but instead sat with Chen Wei.
This made Luo Chen burn with jealousy.
Dong Yuhua and the others were still enthusiastically exchanging flattering words. Luo Chen, holding his glass, stood up without saying anything and walked straight towards Chen Wei's group.
Dong Yuhua and the others were all taken aback when they saw Luo Chen get up and leave without a word.
When they saw Luo Chen heading towards Chen Wei's group, Dong Yuhua and the others quickly got up and followed.
After Luo Chen came over, he sat down next to Wang Li with a somewhat smiling face and looked at Chen Wei, saying, "I didn't know that you and Liu Jia were classmates. Our relationship just got a bit closer. In the future at the company, feel free to visit me. I can ask for advice from a big shot like you. As for the misunderstanding before, don't take it to heart. Here, let's have a drink together!"
With that, Luo Chen picked up his glass.
Chen Wei looked at him, smiled faintly, and said, "Let's skip the drink. I've had a bit too much today and really can't drink anymore. Let's just have a conversation."
Luo Chen pretended to be displeased and said, "That's no fun! How about it, Chen Wei, do I, Luo Chen, not even have the qualifications to have a drink with you?"
At this point, Dong Yuhua and the others had come over, and Dong Yuhua, holding a glass, walked up to Chen Wei to pour him a drink.
Chen Wei directly blocked the glass with his hand, smiled at Dong Yuhua, and said, "Old Dong, don't you know me yet? In four years of college, when have you ever seen me drink? When you wanted to drink with me just now, I ran away. This isn't about face or no face; I really can't drink."
"You..."
Dong Yuhua was about to say something but was interrupted by Wang Li: "Dong Yuhua, what's wrong with you? Chen Wei doesn't want to drink, why are you forcing him? Is that meaningful? I really don't understand you guys. Not drinking means not giving face? What kind of logic is that!"
Wang Li seemed quite angry.
"Exactly, Dong Yuhua, Chen Wei doesn't drink, you should know that. Why are you causing a scene here? If you want to drink, just drink with him yourself, don't drag us into it! What's with this showing off?"
The last sentence from Yue Jiawen was directed at Luo Chen, with undisguised disdain on his face.
Luo Chen's expression became even uglier.
With a cold snort, he stood up, said, "Fine, you're all prestigious figures, people like us can't afford to climb so high. I won't bother to stay here and make a fool of myself."
After saying that, he glanced at Wang Li with a hint of unnoticed resentment, turned around, and left.
Wang Li felt a bit disgusted with Luo Chen and didn't look at him, so she didn't notice the look of resentment from Luo Chen.
But both Chen Wei and Tan Rui noticed it.
Tan Rui glanced at Wang Li and then at Chen Wei, sighing inwardly.
