The midsummer night came quietly. When the two first arrived, it was still daylight. As Chen Jing and Bai Jingming chatted, time passed quickly and before they knew it, the night had darkened.
Maybe it was the atmosphere, or maybe it was the magnetic connection between the people, but both people at the table were a little tipsy.
At first they were drinking tea, and then the restaurant owner came over and gave them a pot of homemade plum wine. Chen Jing originally just wanted to taste it, but unexpectedly found that it tasted really good. After all this, she drank a lot.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
Bai Jingming leaned over and checked Chen Jing's condition.
"Fortunately, this wine is really delicious, not astringent at all."
"Then drink less. Plum wine tastes good, but it has a strong aftertaste."
Bai Jingming had a deep understanding of this matter.
Because he was familiar with the owner of this store, every time he came, the owner would give him some homemade wine to try.
The first time he drank it, he felt the same as Chen Jing: it was so sweet. How could it be as strong as foreign liquor?
But after drinking so much, he couldn't even remember how he got home.
So now he is really reminding Chen Jing not to drink too much.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Chen Jing was in a very good mood today and was not particularly alert.
The man in front of her made her feel very relieved.
Seeing that Chen Jing was in such a good mood, Bai Jingming did not interrupt her. After all, he would not let anything unexpected happen to her.
"Okay, drink as much as you want. Don't worry, I'm here."
The man's pleasant voice was warm and deep.
Chen Jing lowered her eyes and smiled slightly, the curve of her mouth revealing her emotions.
Bai Jingming didn't say much, just sat quietly opposite and watched.
His eyes were filled with smiles.
"Brother? Is that you?"
Suddenly, a clear and gentle voice came from behind Chen Jing.
Bai Jingming tilted his head and looked over when he heard the sound
"Qingqing? Why are you here?"
Chen Jing frowned slightly. The girl's voice just now was particularly familiar, and the Qingqing that the man opposite was talking about, could it be Bai Qingqing?
She also called him big brother, Bai Jingming, Bai Qingqing!
Chen Jing's mind was confused for a while, and the joy she had just felt disappeared.
"Brother~ why are you talking to me like that? Why can't I come here?"
As the girl's voice got closer, the coldness on Chen Jing grew deeper.
Bai Jingming seemed to notice the change in Chen Jing, but he didn't know why.
"That's not what I meant, don't talk nonsense."
Bai Jingming spoke in a calm tone.
The girl came up behind Chen Jing and did not see Chen Jing's face.
She stepped forward and took Bai Jingming's arm, acting coquettishly, "Brother, you haven't contacted me for a long time. Are you very busy with work?"
Bai Jingming calmly pulled out his arm and moved his body away.
"Just speak properly. You're already an adult, so don't always touch your brother."
These words can be said to be expressed quite clearly.
Chen Jing watched, somewhat confused. Aren't they brother and sister? Why did Bai Jingming seem so unimpressed by his sister?
Chen Jing didn't know what she was thinking, but the idea just popped up.
After being scolded, Bai Qingqing finally noticed that there was someone standing opposite her brother. She immediately put her hand away, her attitude still maintaining her previous enthusiasm.
It was completely dark at this time. In order to create an atmosphere, the restaurant turned on the lights, and the light was dim. Chen Jing happened to be backlit, and only half of her face was reflected in the light. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to see clearly.
When Bai Qingqing's gaze turned to Chen Jing, Chen Jing did not dodge. She just sat there with her head held high, watching what Bai Qingqing did.
Bai Jingming was not aware of the conflict between the two, and when his sister asked about it, he did not try to hide it.
"This is my friend, Qingqing, you can't be rude."
Bai Jingming has always disliked his sister's pretentiousness. Although it's okay for a girl to be a little delicate, he always feels that his sister is a little too much.
Bai Qingqing was scolded again, and then she calmed down a little.
"Hello, my name is Bai Qingqing, I'm Bai Jingming's sister,"
Chen Jing's eyes fell on the hand that was handed over, and she didn't react for a long time. How could the pampered Bai Qingqing bear this?
"Aren't you being rude? I'm saying hello."
Bai Qingqing's temper flared up all of a sudden.
Chen Jing laughed out loud.
"Right, that's just your nature, isn't it?"
Chen Jing spoke slowly.
Bai Qingqing was very familiar with this voice. How could she not even recognize the voice of the person she hated day and night?
But she would never reveal her true self in front of her brother.
"Sister-in-law? Are you Sister-in-law Chen Jing?"
Bai Jingming was stunned.
"Qingqing, do you know Xiaojing?"
"Of course, this is Brother Ziyang's wife, don't you know, brother?"
Bai Jingming was indeed shocked, but he was not shocked by Lu Ziyang’s wife, but that she was actually married?
The loneliness in his heart made the man dazed for a moment. He thought he had made a step forward today, but he didn't expect to trap himself.
"Please be careful with your words. I'm no longer your brother Ziyang's wife. Because of your interference, he and I are already getting a divorce."
Chen Jing did not give Bai Qingqing any face because of Bai Jingming.
"What sister-in-law are you talking about? I have never interfered with you and Brother Ziyang. Why don't you believe me?"
As she spoke, the girl suddenly choked up and tears fell like beads from a broken string.
Bai Jingming suddenly came back to his senses and looked at the two of them with his bright eyes.
Chen Jing couldn't help but admire her. Sometimes, if a person wants to be a green tea, he or she must have some talent.
"I don't want to argue with you again and again. You know what you did. It's just that you took what I didn't want. Only you treasure it."
Then Chen Jing stood up again,
"Mr. Bai, I'm sorry. I didn't know you and Bai Qingqing had this kind of relationship. Please forgive me for the offense I caused today. From now on, we can just maintain a cooperative relationship."
After she finished speaking, she was about to leave.
Bai Jingming has been in the business world for so long, but if he can't tell who is real and who is fake, then he is really stupid.
Seeing the woman was about to leave, he immediately stood up and grabbed Chen Jing.
"Wait, I'll take you back. It's too late."
Chen Jing felt that she had made her point very clearly. However, she did not dislike this man. She was just unsure whether he would stand on her side. After all, they were brother and sister.
As he was thinking this, he heard Bai Jingming's cold and distant tone.
"Bai Qingqing, I don't know what you've been doing outside during this time, but please remember your identity. I know your behavior very well. Do you want to be the eldest daughter of the Bai family, or do you want to be another man's appendage? Think carefully about it."
