As they were going for the floral arrangement cla.s.s in the afternoon, Mengjiao and Jian Dan were just going to have a light meal in the afternoon. However, they did not expect…
On the way to lunch, Jian Dan received a call from Chu Liyuan. “Jian Jian, shall we have lunch together?”
After resigning yesterday, Jian Dan really did not go into the office today. This panicked Chu Liyuan as he was afraid that Jian Dan would disappear again.
“I’m with Mengjiao. We’re already going to have lunch. You’ll have to eat by yourself.”
“You’re with Mengjiao? That’s perfect. I haven’t thanked her for what happened last time. Since the two of you are together, I’ll treat you both to a meal and thank her properly.”
Upon hearing Chu Liyuan’s words, the corners of Jian Dan’s lips curled up into a smile.
How many days has it been since that incident? He’s never thought of thanking Mengjiao. He suddenly says he wants to treat Mengjiao to a meal to thank her now?Isn’t that too…
Can’t he come up with a better reason?
However, she was still very happy to see Chu Liyuan put in so much effort to have lunch with her.
“But we’re at Shangqing Mall now. It’s very far from Qin Corporation.” Lets see if you’ll back down if I throw you another curve ball.
“Shangqing Mall?? What a coincidence. I happen to have a business meeting nearby in the afternoon. This way, I won’t have to run back and forth. It’s perfect!”
“It’s a date then. Wait for me there. I’ll be right over!”
After hanging up, a faint smile lingered on Jian Dan’s face.
“Jian, why are you smiling so sweetly? Is it Chu Liyuan?” With the relationship between Mengjiao and Jian Dan, how could Jian Dan’s thoughts escape Mengjiao’s eyes?
The truth was, since the first time Mengjiao saw Jian Dan and Chu Liyuan together, she could tell from the way they looked at each other and their interactions that the two of them were meant for each other.
Although Jian Dan had yet to accept him again, Mengjiao had already known that the two of them would get back together sooner or later.
Seeing Mengjiao looking at her with a naughty expression, Jian Dan stopped smiling. “He says he wants to treat you to a meal to thank you.”
“Pfft! Thank me? If he wants to eat with you, just say so. He actually used me as an excuse?”
“I didn’t expect Chu Liyuan to have such a day.”
“Are you going then?”
“Of course! Why not when someone’s giving a treat? I’d be a fool not to take advantage of that.”
“Tsk…”
Chu Liyuan and Li Jing appeared before them about 20 minutes later…
There was no doubt that Chu Liyuan drove like a bat out of h.e.l.l.
“Hubby? Why are you here?” Mengjiao saw that Li Jing had also come.
“Oh! I have a business meeting nearby in the afternoon, so I came over as well.”
There’s no business meeting in the afternoon! Mr. Chu just told me about it like five minutes ago, okay?
Since the boss has spoken, I can only obey.
Chu Liyuan had brought Li Jing along to lend credence to what he had said. Secondly, he naturally wanted Li Jing to distract Mengjiao so that he and Jian Dan would have more opportunities to talk and interact.
Although the four of them knew that very well in their hearts, none of them took the initiative to bring it to the fore.
“Let’s go! I’m famished!” Jian Dan took the initiative to speak.
“Jian Jian, what do you want to eat?” Chu Liyuan asked gently as he went over to her.
Mengjiao looked at Chu Liyuan’s attentive demeanor and couldn’t help but want to tease him. Anyway, with Jian Dan as her shield, she was not afraid of what Chu Liyuan would do to her.
“Mr. Chu, didn’t you tell Jian that you wanted to treat me to a meal to thank me? Shouldn’t you be asking me what I want to eat?”
When Li Jing heard Mengjiao’s words, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. My wife is so awesome! When can I ever speak like this to Mr.. Chu? Looks like its impossible in this lifetime…
