Chapter 127 - Milk Tea
The other girls were more introverted, and it wasn"t that appropriate for extroverted non-celebrities to come over either. Therefore, every time a new girl came, it was usually Zhou Xi who would take care of her.
Zhou Xi had wanted to take care of Xing Jiuan previously. But unfortunately, Lin Feng did not give her the chance.
Ji Shu"s motive for coming this time was very clear. It was for Xing Jiuan.
She didn"t mind if she was going to be scolded for being a small-time celebrity. She did not care about that anyway.
Zhou Xi noticed this while they were eating.
The reason was very simple.. She originally wanted to sit next to the little kid, but she did not expect Ji Shu to naturally occupy the seat beside Xing Jiuan and keep talking to her. The smile on her face made her grit her teeth.
Thinking of Ji Shu"s ident.i.ty, she sighed again. She could not compare.
Zhou Xi had been through a lot in the entertainment industry. Being a movie queen at such a young age was actually not easy.
She did not have a powerful background. She had to work harder than ordinary people to succeed.
Thinking about Ji Shu"s ident.i.ty and how she herself was just a supporting role… sigh, they could not be compared.
On both sides of Xing Jiuan were Lin Feng and Ji Shu. Lin Feng had wanted to speak to Xing Jiuan a few times, but he did not expect Little Junior Sister"s gaze to always be on Ji Shu.
He did not know why she had so much to say. They were talking almost every time he looked over.
You shouldn"t be speaking when you"re eating or sleeping, don"t you know that? Hmph!
Unable to speak to his little junior sister, he could only eat.
Their meals were usually lively. It was rare for Lin Feng to be so silent.
Zhou Xi felt stifled. Xing Jiuan was talking to Ji Shu. Lin Feng had already cut ties with Huo Jinqi. He did not want to get involved in other people"s conversations either as there was no reason to. He just felt bitter.
Little Junior Sister had finally arrived at where he was, but she did not belong to him alone.
This was too difficult for him!
Ji Shu liked to interact with Xing Jiuan very much. Although Xing Jiuan did not speak much, she listened very attentively. Her solemn and serious look made her give off an adorable feeling.
She was a very likable young lady.
However, although she looked so pretty when she smiled, she did not smile much.
It was as if something was weighing on her heart. She was a young girl, but she looked very serious.
"Are you unhappy?"
"No." Xing Jiuan shook her head.
"You look very pretty when you smile."
Xing Jiuan smiled slightly. "Thank you."
"See! That looks good," Ji Shu said.
Xing Jiuan pursed her lips and felt that Ji Shu was teasing her.
At this moment, her phone vibrated twice. She thought for a moment and opened it.
[Lu Zhichen: 21st, do you like milk tea?]
[Lu Zhichen: I just tasted some…]
[Lu Zhichen: I think it"s the kind of sweetness you"ll like.]
Lu Zhichen did not like sweets, but he heard from his secretary that the milk tea from this shop was very delicious. He bought the most popular one and did not want to continue drinking after just one sip.
Actually, it was not very sweet. He was just a little tired of it.
It was like how he did not really like the snacks that Old Master Tang made.
However, he subconsciously felt that this would be to Xing Jiuan"s taste.
[21st: I don"t like it.]
Xing Jiuan thought to herself that she clearly preferred beverages.
Lu Zhichen had been waiting for a reply and saw her response immediately.
He chuckled.
[Lu Zhichen: If I bring it over, it might not taste that good anymore. I"ll buy it for you again when you come back. I"ll bring you some drinks and yogurt, okay?]
[21st: Bring anything you want to.]
She could not be bothered to reject him.
[Lu Zhichen: Okay.]
[Lu Zhichen: 21st, I"m so tired from work. Comfort me a little.]
