Ji Luo hurriedly entered the private room. He apologized, “Sorry, I’m late. I was delayed by something on the way here.”
He had thought that he was the last to arrive.
However, after he finished speaking and scanned the private rooms, he realized that he was not the last one to arrive.
“Didn’t you say that Fu Ge was coming? Where is he? Why is he later than me?”
Lin Hengxi looked at him and said, “What’s so strange about him being late? Is he not like this every time? When has he ever been on time?”
“That’s true. That guy has always had special privileges. Every time, he would only arrive after being urged multiple times.” Ji Luo walked over and sat in the middle.
Then, he realized that the private room was a little empty, so he asked curiously, “Why didn’t you call anyone today?”
Lin Hengxi glanced at him lazily.
“It’s not that I didn’t tell you, but Fu Ge brought his family here today. If you’re not afraid of death, feel free to call someone in. It’s okay if I pay for it.”
When Ji Luo heard his words, he couldn’t help but be shocked. He asked, “You mean Xixi is coming too?”
Lin Hengxi nodded and replied, “Yes, they should be here soon.”
Ji Luo was very surprised that Fu Ge actually brought his girlfriend to the bar.
“Could it be that he didn’t dare to come himself, so he brought his girlfriend?”
Just as he finished speaking, the door of the private room was opened. Fu Ge’s sinister voice was heard, “Ji Luo…”
When Ji Luo heard this voice, his entire body stiffened. Then, he stood up and smiled apologetically. “Hey, I was actually complimenting you just now. In this world, a man who is afraid of his wife is a good man.”
“Is that so?” Fu Gel s eyes were still narrowed dangerously.
“Of course it is.” Ji Luo was afraid that he would settle the score, so he quickly waved at Qin Jianxi and said, “Xixi, sit here.”
Fu Ge held Qin Jianxi’s hand and sat further away from him.
He turned to his girlfriend and asked, “What do you want to drink?”
“Just give me a gla.s.s of juice.”
Actually, if it wasn’t for Fu Ge forcing her to come here, she wouldn’t have come at all.
She wasn’t interested in drinking.
Moreover, she adjusted her mood very quickly. After dinner, she had already calmed down.
When Ji Luo heard that she was only going to drink fruit juice, he immediately said, “Xixi, we’re already in the bar. How can you just drink fruit juice? Let’s drink wine. There are all kinds of wine in this bar. You can drink anything you want.”
Fu Ge shot him a sideways glance and said, “You talk so much. You drink what you want.”
Ji Luo saw him defending his girlfriend and shrugged. “Fine, it’s up to you if you don’t want to drink.”
There was another reason why Ji Luo didn’t make a fuss. He saw that Qin Jianxi’s mood didn’t seem to be good tonight.
Fu Ge poured a gla.s.s of fruit juice for his girlfriend and a gla.s.s of wine for himself. Then, he looked at Lin Hengxi and asked, “Didn’t you say that there was something you wanted to talk about?”
Lin Hengxi replied, “Actually, I shouldn’t be the one to say this. Let Murong Jiu do it!”
As soon as he said this, the other people’s gazes all fell on Murong Jiu, who was drinking in silence.
Ji Luo was also extremely curious. It was rare for him to see Murong Jiu drinking alone.
“What happened? What is it?”
Murong Jiu raised his head and looked at them. Then, he said, “Actually, it’s nothing much, it’s just a ridiculous thing about my family.”
When Ji Luo heard this, his curiosity was instantly raised.. He asked,
“Ridiculous? Did your father cheat? Or did your father bring you an illegitimate younger brother?”
