In the distance outside the window, the mountains and rivers are connected, and the scenery is picturesque, but Lu Chen is not in the mood to appreciate it.
"Why did you pull me over here?" Lu Chen swung his arms impatiently, "I don't smoke."
"I don't smoke either." Zhou Qian smiled, "And smoking is not allowed here."
"So something's wrong? You don't want to be with your girlfriend anymore?" Lu Chen teased, leaning on the table, looking pitiful like a bullied child.
"I just don't understand." Zhou Qian frowned. "Weren't you looking forward to it yesterday? How come I didn't see you say a word to the girl when I came here today? Your face looked grim and you didn't even smile."
"I'm not trying to please you." Lu Chen said angrily.
"Alright." Zhou Qian said in an understanding tone, "She's not really that good looking. She's not ugly, but she's not pretty either. She doesn't look good standing next to you."
"It's my fault." Zhou Qian thought Lu Chen was dissatisfied with his appearance and explained, "The photo I sent you last time was the one they had retouched. If I had known, I would have asked for the original one."
"This way you won't have to make a wasted trip."
......
Lu Chen felt a little annoyed listening to Zhou Qian's chatter. Why was he so talkative? Didn't his girlfriend mind?
Besides, is he really that fragile? He just wants to be quiet for a while.
"Okay, go back and be with your girlfriend." Lu Chen said, patting his arm and urging him, "I'll stay here and enjoy the scenery."
"Okay." Zhou Qian didn't try to persuade him. He hadn't had a good time with his wife since he came here today. "Then don't sit for too long. We haven't eaten yet."
"knew."
After Zhou Qian left, Lu Chen stayed alone quietly, staring out the window in a trance, with the necklace he had been thinking about last night still in his pocket.
I couldn't help but pick it up and look at it for a while. The nude pink gem sparkled in the sunlight, so beautiful.
Lu Chen decided to give it to the little sheep as a commemoration of the end of their friendship.
And if he wants to chat with her again in the future, he probably won't be in the same mood as before.
But I won’t send it to him now. I have to wait until he returns to H City.
Because he didn't want to see her expression when she received the gift.
——
At the dinner table, Lin Jiaojiao and Yunyun were eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Yunyun also volunteered to take a few photos of Jiaojiao eating, and the results were very good.
"Yunyun, I didn't expect you to be so good at taking pictures at such a young age." Lin Jiaojiao teased with a smile.
"It's mainly because Jiaojiao is pretty that she made the film." Yunyun said with a sincere look on her face.
"Oh, Jiaojiao." Yunyun didn't know what she was thinking about, her face full of confusion, "I have a request, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
"Go ahead." Lin Jiaojiao was very relaxed, smiled, and said, "If it's too much, I won't agree."
"Can I... accept you as my sister?" Yunyun mustered up the courage to say this and looked at her expectantly.
Lin Jiaojiao: “???”
Don't understand, but respect.
"It's... not... impossible." Lin Jiaojiao said in surprise, still not quite understanding, "But why?"
Yunyun rubbed her fingers, feeling a little embarrassed. "I just feel that I get along very well with Sister Jiaojiao, and I want to have another relative."
"My parents divorced when I was young, and they both remarried and didn't pay much attention to me, so I don't have any relatives other than my grandparents..."
The atmosphere between the two was originally quite warm, but now when Yunyun talked about family matters, she suddenly became a little sad, and Yunyun even cried.
Lin Jiaojiao was suddenly at a loss as she had only ever comforted crying girls, but had never comforted a crying boy.
"Yunyun, it's all in the past. Since you've acknowledged me as your sister, I'll be your family from now on." Lin Jiaojiao persuaded softly, picking up the serving chopsticks to help him pick up some food. "Eat more. You've been serving me food just now, and you haven't eaten much yourself."
Yunyun was very happy, crying and laughing, "Sister Jiaojiao, do you really agree?"
Jiaojiao is so gentle, I wish she were his real sister.
"That's right." Lin Jiaojiao nodded with a smile, and said half-jokingly, "Next time I go home, I'll bring you with me so that my parents know they have a godson."
"But you must remember to buy a gift." Lin Jiaojiao tilted her head and joked mischievously, "Otherwise, if your godparents disown you, I won't help you."
"Don't worry, Sister Jiaojiao." Yunyun nodded heavily, "I will prepare well."
"When I have money, I will take care of my godfather, godmother and sister Jiaojiao in their old age."
Lin Jiaojiao burst out laughing and teased, "You're painting a pie for me so early."
"Sister Jiaojiao, I'm telling the truth." Seeing that Lin Jiaojiao didn't believe her, Yunyun stood up anxiously.
Lin Jiaojiao looked up at him, waved her hand downwards, and said, "I see. I was just kidding you. Come sit down and eat."
"Oh." Yunyun sat down obediently.
Suddenly, the system's scream exploded in my mind.
[Host, Lu Chen's favorability has dropped! ! ! ]
Lin Jiaojiao was stunned while eating, and her chopsticks fell on the table with a plop and rolled to the ground.
"Sister Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you?" Yunyun asked worriedly, and handed her a pair of clean chopsticks.
"It's okay, eat quickly." Lin Jiaojiao raised her head with a forced smile.
Why did Lu Chen's favorability drop? She didn't do anything.
"Tongtong, what's going on? How much has Lu Chen's favorability dropped?" Lin Jiaojiao asked anxiously in her mind.
[…It’s rising again.] The system said awkwardly.
Lu Chen is really sick, his favorability value keeps fluctuating, it’s so annoying!
Could it be that there is really something wrong with its favorability system?
"Tongtong, what's going on? Please explain in detail." Lin Jiaojiao took a sip from the water cup, feeling a little irritated.
Yunyun was a little worried when she saw that the smile on Sister Jiaojiao's face suddenly disappeared, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She could only lower her head and eat carefully.
[It was +5-5, fluctuated back and forth several times, and now it has increased again. ]
"I understand. Thank you very much."
After listening to the system's explanation, Lin Jiaojiao felt a little relieved. She guessed that the eldest young master was in a bad mood and implicated her.
How about giving me a call and asking, just to show my concern?
Thinking of this, Lin Jiaojiao stood up with her phone in hand and said hello to Yunyun, "Yunyun, I'm going out to make a call and will be back soon."
"Okay, Sister Jiaojiao, you go ahead."
Lin Jiaojiao walked out of the semi-enclosed private room. She had seen a food blogger visiting the restaurant before, who said that there was a terrace here that overlooked the entire city.
"It's strange. I didn't see it after walking around for a while." Lin Jiaojiao muttered.
"Hello, where is the terrace?" Lin Jiaojiao asked the staff passing by.
The staff member pointed to the left and said, "There's a spiral staircase over there. Just go up. Do you need me to take you there, ma'am?"
"Thank you, but no need. I can go there myself." Lin Jiaojiao said politely with a smile on her face.
