Cheng Qicai originally wanted to leave as soon as she got back, but she hadn't received her money yet, and she had just agreed to take care of Huang Jindou. It wouldn't be good to leave now, since she had made him walk her dog for half an hour for nothing.
So she still planned to wait until Gu Rongqi finished eating before telling him about leaving.
She originally wanted to take the dogs for a walk nearby, but when the two dogs saw Gu Rongqi getting food, they all circled around him and wouldn't go anywhere else.
Cheng Qicai had no choice but to sit back in her previous spot. There were hardly any people there, which meant she didn't have to interact with Gu Liji and his group of friends too much.
"Would you like something else?" Gu Rongqi asked as he walked over with a plate and sat down opposite him.
Cheng Qicai shook her head, "No, I've had enough to eat."
Gu Rongqi didn't say anything more, and placed another plate of white meat on the table. "Could you please feed Golden Bean for me?"
Cheng Qicai nodded, cut the meat on the plate into small pieces, and then placed them on the ground.
The two puppies immediately gathered around the plate and began to slurp and eat.
"Haha, they look like two little pigs!" Cheng Qicai laughed and mocked the two puppies as they ate happily, and took a picture of them on her phone.
Suddenly, a message from Ren Baiping popped up. She clicked on it and saw that it was a voice message.
Cheng Qicai clicked play and put the phone to her ear.
The content of his voice message was roughly that his roommate accidentally knocked her small ceramic item to the ground and broke it when she was getting something from her desk.
Cheng Qicai opened the picture he sent and saw that one of the ceramic kittens had been smashed into several pieces.
Cheng Qicai replied to him, saying that it was okay, the fall wasn't serious, and she would just bring it back and fix it.
Ren Baiping asked her what she was doing, so she took a picture of the barbecue chef's back and sent it to him.
Upon receiving an envious, drooling emoji from him, Cheng Qiqi couldn't help but laugh.
"If you're not busy, you can have some fruit." Gu Rongqi placed a plate of fruit in front of her.
"Thanks."
Looking at the bright red cherries, Cheng Qicai picked one up and put it in her mouth. It was very sweet and had a fruity flavor. Cheng Qicai couldn't help but eat one after another.
I also replied to Ren Baiping's message.
"Are you chatting with Ren Baiping?" Gu Rongqi looked up at Cheng Qicai, who was holding her phone and smiling, as he was cutting meat on his plate.
"Hmm," Cheng Qicai replied casually.
"What's wrong? He sounded a little anxious."
"It's nothing, it's just a small ceramic piece I bought in the ancient town, which his roommate broke in his dorm room."
Gu Rongqi gripped the knife and fork tighter. "Wasn't he going abroad?"
Cheng Qicai didn't expect Gu Rongqi to bring this up, so she said truthfully, "Oh, that's still a long way off. He'll be going next year."
The meat on the plate was cut into small pieces. "That day, I noticed you seemed upset when you heard him say he was going out, and I thought you were affected by this incident."
"There was a bit of that before, but we've already made things clear, so it's nothing now." Cheng Qicai looked extremely relaxed, as if she really didn't mind the matter.
Looking at Cheng Qicai's smiling lips, Gu Rongqi's lowered eyelashes cast even deeper shadows, obscuring the fleeting gloom in his eyes.
It seems I need to be quicker.
