Jing Pei had known Hong Baobao for quite some time, so he could naturally tell that Hong Baobao wasn't telling the truth and that there were many things she was hiding from him.
However, since Hong Baobao herself didn't want to talk about it, Jing Pei didn't ask her any further.
At first, Hong Baobao was a little nervous along the way, but soon she was less nervous.
When Hong Baobao saw the aunt Jing Pei mentioned, she glanced at her and felt that she looked somewhat familiar.
Then, she suddenly remembered that she had actually met her aunt once a long time ago.
She remembered that at that time, her aunt encountered a thief who just happened to snatch her aunt's bag.
Hong Baobao just happened to encounter this situation.
Now that she's encountered this situation, she certainly can't just ignore it.
So she snatched the bag back from the thief.
At that time, her aunt had originally planned to invite her to dinner, but she had something to do at the time, so she declined.
That incident happened quite a long time ago, and she always thought they would never meet again, but unexpectedly, they met today.
If she hadn't seen it today, she would have completely forgotten about it.
What surprised her most was that the woman was actually Jingpei's aunt.
When Hong Baobao recognized the woman, the woman also recognized Hong Baobao.
Her eyes lit up as soon as she saw Hong Baobao. She had been sitting, but when she saw Hong Baobao, she quickly got up from her chair and walked over to her.
"Baby, right? Come and sit down." Jingxia took Hong Baobao's hand and said as she led Hong Baobao away.
Hong Baobao turned her head and glanced at Jing Pei, then followed Jing Xia.
Jing Pei, on the other hand, was completely ignored by Jing Xia.
This left Jing Pei feeling rather frustrated.
"Baby, I never expected that you would be that brat's girlfriend." Jingxia only knew that Jingpei had a girlfriend named Hong Baobao, but she didn't know what she looked like.
It was at this moment, when she saw Hong Baobao walking over with Jing Pei, that she realized that Jing Pei's girlfriend was none other than her.
Previously, Hong Baobao had helped her catch a petty thief. At that time, she originally intended to thank Hong Baobao properly, but unexpectedly, Hong Baobao refused and left directly.
She knew nothing about Hong Baobao, so even if she wanted to find her, she didn't know where to start or where to look for her.
But now, by some strange twist of fate, they've met.
“Baby, what would you like to eat? Let’s order and chat while we eat,” Jingxia said.
Hong Baobao hadn't eaten anything that morning, and since her stomach was empty, she really wanted to eat something.
So she didn't stand on ceremony and started ordering food.
After ordering a few dishes, Hong Baobao handed the menu to Jingxia and asked her to choose the food.
Seeing that Hong Baobao had ordered several dishes, Jingxia didn't order too many herself, but only two dishes and a soup.
Hong Baobao and Jingxia chatted the whole time, while Jingpei seemed like an outsider, just sitting there quietly, looking at whoever spoke first.
Even if Jing Pei wanted to join in the conversation between Hong Baobao and the others, he couldn't.
So Jing Pei simply sat to the side and listened to them talk.
Originally, they were talking about other topics, but as they talked, they suddenly started talking about him.
Immediately, Jing Pei perked up and started listening to what they had to say about him.
However, when he heard what they said, he felt a pang of heartache.
The aunt said, "Baby, how did you come to like Xiao Pei in the first place? Xiao Pei isn't popular with girls."
"I don't know either. By the time I realized it, I had already fallen for Peipei."
Jing Pei himself knew that he had never been very popular with girls since he was a child.
But even so, there's no need for my aunt to say it now, is there?
That's really heartbreaking.
Jing Pei thought this to himself, but he didn't say anything.
Hong Baobao glanced at Jing Pei secretly. Seeing that Jing Pei seemed to be in a bad mood, she slowly reached her hand towards him.
Because Hong Baobao and Jing Pei were sitting together and quite close, she could touch Jing Pei with just a simple reach.
Hong Baobao reached out and touched Jing Pei, and then Jing Pei also grasped Hong Baobao's hand.
Looking at Jing Pei now, it's very clear that he's in a great mood.
Hong Baobao and Jing Pei thought that Jingxia hadn't seen their actions, but little did they know that Jingxia had witnessed their interactions.
Jingxia looked at Hong Baobao, her eyes full of smiles.
Jing Pei didn't notice Jing Xia, but Hong Baobao noticed that Jing Xia was looking at her. After realizing it, she looked over at Jing Xia.
Hong Baobao had always thought that she was quite thick-skinned, but at this moment, being stared at like that by Jingxia made her feel a little embarrassed.
Hong Baobao smiled at Jingxia, and then continued chatting with Jingxia about other topics.
