“Xixi is back too?” Rong Yan’s face lit up with surprise.
Gu Linxi was her best friend who had immigrated abroad early on, and they hadn’t seen each other for several years. She hadn’t expected that Lin Xinbei would return with her this time.
“She’s back,” Lin Xinbei asked her, “What do you think, should we invite her out for a meal? It’s been a long time since the three of us had dinner together.”
Rong Yan agreed without hesitation, “Sure.”
“I’ll call her.”
Lin Xinbei was a man of action and picked up his phone to make the call right away.
Gu Linxi arrived quickly and, upon reaching the music bar, hugged Rong Yan and cried her heart out. She blamed herself for not coming back sooner, unaware of the many things Rong Yan had encountered. It was only after Rong Yan comforted her that her emotions gradually calmed down, and the three of them accidentally got carried away in their conversation.
Outside, it had turned dark.
Lin Xinbei had ordered Western food, and the steak had just been served.
Rong Yan’s phone on the table chimed punctually.
“Hold on, let me check the message.”
Gu Linxi continued chatting eagerly with Lin Xinbei, thinking that Rong Yan had just received a casual text.
Rong Yan picked up her phone and opened the message.
A profile picture with [Isx] popped up and the chat box had only a few succinct words: [Where are you? Why aren’t you at the hospital?]
Rong Yan suddenly felt like a little wife who had gone out to play and forgot to inform her husband, and now the master husband had come looking for her. She felt a bit embarrassed by the thought that crept up in her mind and, lowering her head, her fingers swiftly replied: [I’m outside.]
[I ran into two friends and we’re having dinner together. What about you? Are you done with work?]
[Yes.]
Rong Yan pondered for a moment and then typed quickly: [Are you tired today?
Have you eaten?]
After sending the message, she waited a full minute with no reply.
Rong Yan thought he might be busy with something else and didn’t see the message, so he probably wouldn’t reply for now. Just as she was about to put her phone down and re-engage with everyone…
Her phone buzzed twice, and a message came through.
[Suddenly not tired anymore. Where are you? I’ll come find you.]
Suddenly not tired anymore…
It felt like he had an ulterior message, as if just because she had shown concern, he wasn’t tired anymore.
(Cui Jiangjing: You’re not wrong!)
Rong Yan looked up at the sky outside, feeling it was getting quite late.
She replied: [I’m at a music bar near the Huashuo Building. You don’t need to come over, it’s easy to hail a cab here. I’ll take a taxi back later or, if not, I can ask a friend to drop me off after dinner.]
He hadn’t been to the office for three days and must have had a lot to deal with today. It seemed too troublesome for him to come and pick her up after finally getting off work.
This time, after Rong Yan responded, there was no activity on the other end for a long while.
Worried that Li Shengxiao might reply, she kept holding her phone and waiting.
Meanwhile, Gu Linxi, seeing that she wasn’t eating, chatting, and was constantly looking at her phone, snatched the phone away and placed it on the table, asking, “Who are you messaging? You’ve been on your phone the whole time. I called you several times and you didn’t respond.”
“Huh?”
‘ Gu Linxi felt like hitting her; she had been calling her name for so long, and Rong Yan had just kept her eyes glued to her phone without hearing a thing? “I’m asking you if you know what tricks Rong Weiwei used to make Shi Mufeng tell the reporters that you gave him a green hat.”
Rong Yan felt annoyed at the mention of these two names and frowned, “How would I know?”
“Forget it. I figured you wouldn’t know.”
Gu Linxi spoke while digging through her purse, “Right, regarding those internet rumors, I found something interesting and forgot to give it to you..”
