Yi Tianran's face flushed, and she asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"
Fan Na smiled mischievously: "Because my sister exudes an enticing fragrance of freshly picked peaches, so tender and delicious, with juicy flesh, that I wish I could take a bite out of her."
Yi Tianran: "..."
This description is so ambiguous.
...
The three eventually arrived at a nearby restaurant, and just as they stepped into the elevator, they ran into an acquaintance.
"Big sister, are you dining here too?" Yi Tianran asked, looking surprised.
Fu Qingruo never expected to run into her here.
Recently, due to Chu Lin's matter, Fu Qingruo had a disagreement with them, and she rarely returned to the Fu residence.
She might have gone to another villa, or she might be staying in her studio, or... she might be with Chu Lin.
The sudden encounter today created a slightly awkward atmosphere.
"Hmm." Fu Qingruo simply responded with a faint sound and then remained silent.
Yi Tianran noticed her unusually elaborate attire and guessed that she had probably arranged to meet someone, and it was obvious who that person was.
Just as the atmosphere reached a stalemate.
A gasp broke the silence.
"Wow! My God..." Fan Na suddenly moved closer to Fu Qingruo, her eyes sparkling as if adorned with stars.
"This beautiful lady, your perfume smells absolutely wonderful. It's citrus? It's refreshing and crisp, sweet but not cloying, the scent is just right, like the scent of first love. It makes you feel relaxed and happy, it's almost addictive."
After praising it at length, Fan Na clasped her hands together and pleaded, "Sister, could you tell me where I bought this? I really love it and want to know more about it, please!"
Fu Qingruo, who was naturally aloof, was taken aback by her enthusiasm, but quickly regained her composure and simply said, "This is a gift from a friend."
Therefore, she didn't know where she could buy it.
Fan Na was immediately disappointed, and the stars in her eyes dimmed a little. She wanted to continue asking questions, but the elevator doors opened at that moment.
After briefly saying goodbye to Yi Tianran, Fu Qingruo left first.
"Hey—wait, sister!" Fan Na wanted to chase after her, but Kasha grabbed her by the back of her collar and pulled her back forcefully, warning her, "Don't be a perverted stalker and keep bothering me."
“You don’t understand!” Fan Na’s eyes were filled with eagerness. “As a world-class perfumer, I have studied countless perfumes, but I have never smelled such a special fragrance.”
"Is it that special?" Kasha didn't quite understand. There were countless perfume scents, and in her opinion, they were all pretty much the same.
"Of course, it's just like a top chef pursuing unparalleled delicacies, a race car driver seeking rare and unique race cars, and a designer seeking the pinnacle of inspiration."
Fan Na's eyes lit up, and she grabbed Kasha's hand. "Kasha, I'm begging you, you have to help me find the brand of this perfume. This is my lifelong plea, and I'm pinning all my hopes on you!"
As far as she knew, this was not any brand on the market; it was either not yet manufactured or available, or so niche that it had never been mentioned before.
However, Fan Na felt that such a pleasant scent should not be overlooked.
Kasha glanced at Yi Tianran helplessly.
But then I saw her holding her phone, frantically sending messages to someone.
[Zhuang Yizhan! I've sent you the address. If you're a man, don't be a coward. Go for it, create an opportunity, and go for it!]
Zhuang Yizhan was moved to tears. "Good brother, for your kindness, once I get together with my goddess, you won't need to call me brother-in-law anymore."
Yi Tianran rolled her eyes. [Such poor execution, yet you dream big. Who said you're my best friend?]
Zhuang Yizhan quickly changed his tune: "My dear sister, wait for my good news!"
Yi Tianran: "..." Sometimes, he's so shameless, yet he's so innocent when it comes to relationships!
It really worried her to death!
...
Upon learning that Fu Qingruo was dining at Xiyue Restaurant, Zhuang Yizhan immediately began to groom himself and quickly changed his clothes. Fifteen minutes later, a dashing and debonair gentleman appeared, holding a bouquet of flowers.
As soon as he appeared in the lobby of Xiyuelou, he attracted countless admiring glances.
Zhuang Yizhan remained unfazed, showing not a trace of pride or narcissism.
He wouldn't take Fu Qingruo's praise to heart.
According to Yi Tianran, he made a reservation at the front desk for Fu Qingruo's dining floor.
Fortunately, it was an open place. If it had been a private room, he was afraid he wouldn't have been able to control himself and would have rushed in and taken the person away on the spot.
I rode the elevator with a nervous heart, my heart pounding wildly.
With a "ding", the elevator doors opened.
Zhuang Yizhan walked to the reserved seat with a stiff face and sat down. The moment he looked up, he saw Fu Qingruo in the front row by the window. She was wearing a white dress, her face was cold and aloof, and her long hair was tied up, revealing her fair neck.
Sitting opposite her was none other than Chu Lin, the hypocrite.
Although he had long suspected this possibility, when he actually saw the two of them sitting face to face, looking like a couple, his heart still couldn't help but clench with pain.
He quickly slapped his face with both hands. No, he couldn't give up now that he'd come this far.
The window seat, the closest to the night view.
Chu Lin gazed at the woman opposite him and said affectionately, "Qingruo, you look so beautiful today. Did you dress up so carefully to see me?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than he heard a "pfft" sound from afar, as if mocking his statement.
He looked up in annoyance and saw a well-dressed man two seats away, holding a phone with an earphone in his ear, seemingly talking to someone on the other side of the screen, "Of course I'm not just saying sweet words, you're the most beautiful every day without dressing up."
Chu Lin felt he was being subtly insulted.
This guy speaks much better than he does.
He gave a disgruntled snort, temporarily ignoring the incident.
Fu Qingruo looked at the man with some surprise.
It was him.
It wasn't until Chu Lin spoke again that her thoughts were brought back to the present, "Qingruo, this table of dishes is all Xiyuelou's signature set menu, do you like it?"
Fu Qingruo glanced down at it twice and gave a nonchalant reply.
“Honey, I ordered two tables of your favorite dishes according to your taste. One portion is for you, and if you want more, there’s another portion. Just give me the extra. Don’t you think I’m thoughtful?” Zhuang Yizhan across from me spoke again.
Chu Lin felt subtly insulted once again.
Is this guy implying that all the signature dishes on the table are inferior to the dishes he carefully selected that the other person likes?
His fist hardened.
However, the man on the other end was wearing headphones and was clearly talking to someone on his phone screen, so it was probably just a coincidence.
He endured it.
