The two chatted and laughed until they were halfway through their meal.
Luo Xikui was about to discuss wedding cakes and candies when she saw a familiar face.
It was Yuan Cheng, whom I hadn't seen for a while.
He was dressed casually, but with his glasses on, he really did look like a university lecturer.
Luo Xikui was about to wave to him when she saw him helping a girl out of the elevator.
The girl was quite petite, wearing a sky-blue duffle coat and a white knitted hat, which made her pretty face appear even smaller and more delicate.
It's that girl. How could she be with Yuan Cheng?
Luo Xikui was puzzled when she saw Yuan Cheng's gaze fall upon her, clearly indicating that he had also noticed her.
Yuan Cheng took the girl's hand and walked towards her.
"Xiao Kui, it's been a long time. When did you come back?" Yuan Cheng asked with a gentle smile, his eyes fixed on Luo Xi Kui.
"Around New Year's Day." Luo Xikui turned her gaze to their clasped hands.
Yuan Cheng then looked at Xu Ziyu sitting opposite her. Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, she could still recognize him at a glance.
The once aloof young man has somewhat tempered his sharpness, but his gaze remains just as piercing, perhaps even directed at him.
“Mr. Xu, it’s been a long time.” Yuan Cheng extended his hand with a gentlemanly air.
"Long time no see." Xu Ziyu also reached out and shook his hand.
Luo Xikui sensed an odd atmosphere between the two of them, so she immediately changed the subject, shifting the topic to the girl next to Yuan Cheng, and said with a smile, "Yuan Cheng, won't you introduce this beautiful lady next to you to us?"
Yuan Cheng smiled faintly, turned his gaze to the side, and then turned back to Luo Xikui, saying, "Actually, I mentioned this to you before."
Luo Xikui was taken aback. When did he mention that?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he opened his eyes wide in surprise, asking, "She's your cousin?"
Yuan Cheng smiled and nodded, then whispered to the girl beside him about Luo Xikui.
Although the girl's eyes were dull and lifeless, they were large and clear, and if they were bright, they would be a pair of particularly spirited eyes.
Luo Xikui looked at her and remembered that when she praised Xu Ziyu to Yuan Cheng for how smart he was, he mentioned that his cousin was also very smart.
At that time, she didn't take it seriously, thinking to herself how could anyone possibly be smarter than her Tuantuan?
Unexpectedly, Yuan Cheng was not exaggerating. According to Xu Ziyu, this girl was younger than him when she took the college entrance examination. Although Xu Ziyu's grades were better, a year makes a big difference at that age.
In that sense, they are indeed equally intelligent.
"Hello, Miss Luo, I'm Jing An'an." Jing An'an extended her hand.
Luo Xikui saw that although she couldn't see, she could accurately determine her location. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to tell that she was blind.
"Hello, An'an." Perhaps she had heard Yuan Cheng, her brother, and Xu Ziyu mention her before, so she felt a strange sense of kinship with Jing An'an. She added, "If you don't mind, let's eat together."
Yuan Cheng looked at Jing An'an, and Jing An'an nodded.
Luo Xikui rang the bell to call the waiter to order more dishes, and enthusiastically kissed Jing An'an's tastes and preferences.
Jing An'an's expression was calm as she politely smiled and answered.
Luo Xikui couldn't help but worry about her brother. This petite beauty seemed to have a maturity and aloofness beyond her years, which matched her imagination of elite military personnel.
But do all people with exceptionally high IQs have this problem?
