Since nothing was happening at the security office, Lu Yu stepped out of Leng Qingqiu's office, had everyone go on patrol, and then settled in his own office to play games. Meanwhile, Wu Song, who had been punched in the face by Lu Yu earlier, stuck around offering tea and water eagerly.

Time in the game world flies by, and before he knew it, it was already quitting time in the afternoon.

Lu Yu rode the bus back to his residence, but just as he was about to head upstairs, he spotted Meng Yue dressed in casual wear standing downstairs. In front of her stood a well-groomed man in a suit, showering her with compliments.

"Captain Meng, since we both have some free time, why not grab dinner together?"

The man seemed polite and well-educated, his demeanor courteous and his actions appropriate.

Meng Yue was renowned as the police flower of the LA City criminal police team, often pursued by countless admirers. Clearly, the man before her was one of them.

Meng Yue looked slightly impatient upon hearing the man's words. Glancing at him, she said, "Guo Jiarui, don't you know when to quit? Leave now, I don't want to see you!"

Guo Jiarui responded with a slight smile, saying, "Captain Meng, you see, feelings can be nurtured. Besides, I'm just innocently asking you out for a meal, nothing else."

To an outsider, it might seem like Meng Yue was being unreasonable and very headstrong. But to Lu Yu, the situation was far from simple.

He could clearly see a hint of greed in Guo Jiarui's eyes!

This desire was cleverly masked, hiding behind what looked like a friendly smile, something an ordinary person couldn't easily detect.

Lu Yu, however, was different. He had seen too many beasts exhibiting greed on deserted islands, and Guo Jiarui's expression was even worse than those beasts!

"What's for dinner? I told you, we're not close, and I have plans with someone else tonight!" Meng Yue said, suddenly noticing Lu Yu not too far away.

Guo Jiarui chuckled at Meng Yue's words and said, "No problem, I wonder who Captain Meng is meeting, maybe we can all go together, make a new friend."

Meng Yue was taken aback. Throughout her life, having encountered numerous criminals, it was her first time encountering a shameless man like Guo Jiarui. Anyone could see she was rejecting him, yet he persistently and annoyingly continued to pursue her.

Instantly, Meng Yue quickly walked over to Lu Yu, hooked her arms around his, and said, "This is my boyfriend, we're planning a cozy evening together!"

Upon hearing Meng Yue's words, Guo Jiarui shot Lu Yu an unfriendly glance and then smiled, saying, "Haha, Captain Meng, don't try to fool me. This person is clearly a stranger. I'm not an idiot, don't use a random person to deceive me, okay?"

Guo Jiarui spoke with a hint of humor, completely disbelieving that Lu Yu was Meng Yue's boyfriend.

"There are many things you don't know! Just because you don't know them, doesn't mean they don't exist!"

Meng Yue said to Guo Jiarui, and then suddenly kissed Lu Yu on the lips.

The kiss was smooth and natural, as if they had kissed many times before.

At that instant, Guo Jiarui's expression changed when Meng Yue's lips touched Lu Yu's. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he instantly viewed Lu Yu as his rival!

Seeing Guo Jiarui's murderous look, Lu Yu felt helpless, wondering why he was dragged into this mess by Meng Yue. He was just an innocent bystander.

Of course, Lu Yu wasn't one to be taken advantage of. Since Meng Yue claimed he was her boyfriend, he thought it reasonable to do something a boyfriend should.

With this in mind, Lu Yu brought out his old, flamboyant playboy attitude and, with a 'why miss a chance' mindset, wrapped his arm around Meng Yue's slender waist. Looking at Guo Jiarui, he said, "Right. Who are you? I saw you pestering my girlfriend earlier. Aren't you being annoying?"

Meng Yue was caught off-guard by Lu Yu's move, surprised at how swiftly he adapted to the role. Though she was reluctant, with Guo Jiarui right in front of them, she couldn't react negatively.

Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Guo Jiarui's initially smiling face turned somber. He looked at Lu Yu and said, "I am Guo Jiarui, I am..."

"Alright, I know who you are. I don't care who you are right now. Just stay away from my girlfriend, or you'll regret it!" Lu Yu threatened as he looked at Guo Jiarui.

Stunned by Lu Yu's words, Guo Jiarui had initially thought of using his status to belittle Lu Yu, but before he could finish, Lu Yu cut him off, giving him no chance to speak.

"Are you talking to me?"

Perplexed, Guo Jiarui asked, being the son of the Guo Group, he had never met anyone who dared speak to him like this until Lu Yu.

"Of course! It's just the three of us here. Who else would I be talking to if not you? My girlfriend?" Lu Yu said, pulling Meng Yue closer, while looking at Guo Jiarui.

"You..."

Guo Jiarui was about to speak when Meng Yue interrupted him.

"What 'you'? Didn't you hear my boyfriend? Don't pester me anymore or he'll beat you up!" Meng Yue boldly said, not realizing the situation escalated to this point.

Ignoring Guo Jiarui's expression, Meng Yue turned to Lu Yu and said, "Let's go get something to eat, don't bother with him!"

She said, pulling Lu Yu away without acknowledging Guo Jiarui.

"Lu Yu?"

Guo Jiarui watched their retreating backs, his eyes now cold, as he said frosty, "Let's see about that!"
