Chapter 26 He Amazed My Entire Girlhood
Since they had agreed to go to Hongzunfang for dinner, after school, Fu Ci rarely left alone.
He, Ji Lin, Qin Che and the others walked one after the other on the tree-lined path after school. They were surrounded by the bustling crowds of classmates leaving school, and it was very lively.
Fu Ci's black sportswear made his 1.9-meter-tall figure look even more majestic and tall. His thick black-framed glasses obscured his sparkling peach blossom eyes, but his angular features, high nose bridge, slightly pursed thin lips, and perfect jaw revealed that beneath his dull and boring appearance, he exuded a sense of distance that went against the world.
He is like an iceberg that is out of tune with the people around him, emitting a cold aura that keeps strangers away.
Ji Lin suddenly patted his head and exclaimed softly, "Oh, how could I forget such an important thing?"
Qin Che and the man with glasses immediately turned their heads to look at him, "What's wrong, Ji Lin?"
"Is something urgent happening to you?"
The two of them said very considerately: "If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. You can eat anytime."
Ji Lin first took a sneak peek and saw that Fu Ci, who was still walking in front of them with his head down, didn't notice anything unusual. A barely perceptible cunning smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then he looked at Qin Che and the man with glasses with his beautiful eyes filled with apology, "I said I'd treat you to dinner but couldn't come with you because of something. I really feel bad."
Ji Lin took out the cafeteria meal card his family had given him at the beginning of the school year from his schoolbag and handed it to them. "This is my meal card. My family topped it up with 100,000 yuan when I transferred here. I've never used it once. Take it and use it. This meal is my apology."
"Next time I have time, I'll take you to Hong Zun Fang for dinner."
Qin Che and the man with glasses quickly pushed the card to him and said with a smile, "No need, Ji Lin, if you have something to do, just go and do it. We have our own meal cards, so we can just go and eat by ourselves."
Ji Lin's attitude was very firm. "No, it was my fault that you delayed your meal time. I don't need the meal card anyway. I won't feel at ease if you don't take it."
Qin Che and the man with glasses had no choice but to accept the meal card because he insisted. For them, a good meal might cost several days' living expenses, but for Ji Lin and other young masters from wealthy families, it might just be a drop in the bucket. So if they refused again, they would seem ungrateful.
"Then Fu Ci..." Qin Che looked hesitantly at Fu Ci who was walking in front and knew nothing about it.
Ji Lin patted their shoulders and said with a smile, "Fu Ci has to go home anyway, I'll go tell him, you guys go to the cafeteria to eat first."
"Because all the delicious food will be gone soon."
Qin Che and the man with glasses nodded when they heard this, then turned and walked towards the cafeteria.
Ji Lin watched their backs as they walked away, a smile of contempt mixed with success flashing in his eyes, then he turned around and quickly caught up with Fu Ci.
It was still the black Porsche Cayenne, and the same driver wearing white gloves. When he saw Fu Ci walking over with Ji Lin, he immediately remembered that this was the classmate that the young master had deceived by pretending to be a good boy when he got lost last time.
He was slightly stunned, but quickly collected all his emotions. The young master's temper was very changeable, and if he showed any abnormality, it would definitely make him unhappy.
After Fu Ci got on the bus, he realized that only he and Ji Lin were there. Qin Che and the man with glasses were missing. They had clearly left together after school. He frowned and asked, "Where are Qin Che and the others?"
Ji Lin curled his lips and smiled lightly, "They said they had something urgent to do and couldn't go, so they asked us to go and eat."
The car started slowly and drove into the crowded traffic. Fu Ci didn't say anything else. He didn't care about eating. He just wanted to go to Hongzunfang.
At this time, Lu Shiyan was finishing his morning work when his cell phone suddenly rang in the spacious and bright office. He picked up the phone.
Gu Yian's loud voice immediately came from the other end of the phone, "Ayan? Where are you?"
Lu Shiyan signed the last document and put it aside, saying casually: [Company.]
[Huh?] Gu Yian frowned, even his breathing became anxious. [Didn't I tell you last night that I wanted to introduce you to my distant cousin?]
Lu Shiyan suddenly remembered the message. He thought Gu Yian was drunk and talking nonsense, so he didn't take it seriously.
He said apologetically: [Sorry, I thought you were joking.]
[So, all your expenses today will be charged to me. This is my apology to you and your cousin.]
[No!] Gu Yian immediately refused, and said pointedly: [You are already like this, it is obvious that you are just holding it in.]
Lu Shiyan felt a little regretful. He should not have told them about this matter earlier. It was really because of drinking that things went wrong.
Gu Yian continued to instigate, "I know you've always been very self-disciplined and have a serious case of mysophobia. Don't worry, my cousin is also very serious and loyal in her relationships."
[This Hongzunfang is not far from your company. I've already arranged an appointment here. You should at least come and meet me so we can have a meal and chat.]
"Brother Yi'an?"
Suddenly, a soft female voice came from the phone receiver, followed by Gu Yi'an's voice greeting her. Gu Yi'an quickly said to the phone: "Okay, A Yan, the girl is here, Nan Feng, hurry up." After that, he hung up the phone without waiting for Lu Shiyan to refuse.
Gu Yian knew that Lu Shiyan would definitely come given his upbringing, so he looked at Ji Qingyu expectantly and nodded complacently, "Don't worry, he'll be here soon. With your brother personally helping you make connections, is there anything he can't handle?"
Ji Qingyu, who was sitting opposite, had big chestnut waves draped over her shoulders. The white corseted satin dress she wore outlined her graceful curves. The light and flowing skirt was slightly slit, revealing her slender white legs, which was sexy yet elegant.
Her face was extremely beautiful, her skin was whiter than snow and seemed as delicate as a baby's. Its delicateness was tinged with a faint blush, making her look particularly tender and graceful. She had a pair of narrow and charming eyes, which revealed endless charm as they moved.
Hearing Gu Yi'an's assurance, Ji Qingyu immediately smiled brightly, "Thank you, Brother Yi'an."
Gu Yian asked curiously, "Most of your Ji family's business focuses are overseas. You didn't come back suddenly just for A Yan, did you?"
Hearing Lu Shiyan's name, Ji Qingyu felt a warm current flowing through his heart, like the softness of a spring breeze blowing over a willow tree. However, his smile was still tinged with a hint of bitterness. "Yes, ever since I returned to China to attend your birthday party that year, I fell in love with Lu Shiyan the first time I saw him."
"You could say he amazed me throughout my teenage years, so how could I possibly forget him?"
"Knowing that he's been alone for all these years, I wanted to take a gamble and give it a try. What if... I mean, what if he could spare a moment's attention and see me?"
