Chapter 131 Everyone is jealous of their own things.
Qin Jiaojiao was speechless and didn't want to talk.
But Qin Jiaojiao still weakly retorted: "I won't eat shit, even if I eat Huo Beiyan, I won't eat shit."
"I'm just making an analogy. It's not like you really want to eat shit. Even if you want to, I won't let you." Lu Shiman explained.
“I know, but I won’t eat it…”
"Let's go, the restaurant is booked." Huo Beiyan interrupted the strange conversation between the two. He felt that if he continued...
Ji Linshen didn't say a word the whole time, his eyes were always on Lu Shiman, his eyes were affectionate and doting.
The four of them got into a car, Huo Beiyan was driving, Ji Linshen wanted to sit in the back seat with Lu Shiman, but she pushed him to the passenger seat.
In front of his best friend, a man always takes a back seat.
Neon lights and cars shuttle through the city.
There was a lot of chatter in the car, which was the strange conversation between Lu Shiman and Qin Jiaojiao.
The two of them can talk about anything from the weather to the TV series they are following, and from the TV series to the gossip they have heard.
When we see a dog walking on the street, we discuss how much it weighs. When we see a strange car passing by, we laugh and complain about it.
Interspersed with the two people confessing to each other from time to time, and occasionally scolding Huo Beiyan and Ji Linshen.
Ji Linshen's gaze was on Lu Shiman in the rearview mirror the entire time.
The city lights passed over her swaying diamond earrings, and every refracted light accurately pierced the most sensitive nerve endings in his retina.
Huo Beiyan would look at Qin Jiaojiao's expression through the rearview mirror from time to time, with a beautiful curve at the corner of his mouth.
Ji Linshen and Huo Beiyan didn't say anything. Their eyes converged on the rearview mirror and fell on the person hidden in their hearts behind them.
From the moment the car started to the moment it stopped, the two people behind me never stopped talking.
The car slowly stopped in front of a courtyard with green bricks and gray tiles. A doorman in a dark red vest trotted towards us. His fingers curled up habitually when they touched the car door, and he bent to the right degree.
Huo Beiyan put one hand in his trouser pocket and was still discussing the details of the merger and acquisition case with Ji Linshen as his leather shoes stepped on the bluestone slabs.
Lu Shiman and Qin Jiaojiao were a few steps behind them.
"Manman, why do you think Huo Beiyan has a crush on Ji Linshen?" Qin Jiaojiao stared at the backs of the two people in front of her.
"It's normal for someone like Ji Linshen to be liked, right?" Lu Shiman didn't think it was strange at all that someone liked Ji Linshen.
"Do you like it too?" Qin Jiaojiao turned her head to look at Lu Shiman.
"Of course, he doesn't like what I do with him, like making handicrafts."
Seeing her admit it so readily, Qin Jiaojiao's eyes flashed, and she retracted her fingers while holding Lu Shiman's arm.
"Xiao Manman." A familiar clear voice floated from behind.
Lu Shiman turned around and bumped into Xie Yi's smiling eyes.
He was wearing a smoky grey casual suit today, with two buttons casually undone at the collar. His hand, twirling the car keys between his fingers, suddenly stopped: "Oh, Jiaojiao is here too."
Hearing the voice, Qin Jiaojiao also turned around and saw Xie Yi. She and Lu Shiman said in unison: "Brother Feather."
Xie Yi: “…”
"Are you coming to eat alone?" Lu Shiman looked at him alone, looked behind him, and asked curiously.
"No, with your brother." Before Xie Yi finished speaking, his eyes suddenly fixed on the back of Lu Shiman. Ji Linshen was standing at the intersection of light and shadow, staring at their direction dimly.
Xie Yi felt a chill down his spine at just one glance.
"Brother Feather, you're fooling around with my third brother all day long. Won't Auntie tell you?"
"My second brother said that if you hang out with the third brother all day, you'll become stupid and mean."
"Lu Shiman, I heard you framing me from a distance."
A figure appeared from behind the screen. Lu Jianheng put away his phone and flicked Lu Shiman's forehead with his bent fingers, the force as light as brushing against a petal.
Xie Yi sneered, loosened his collar, and patted Lu Shiman on the head. "He's been with your second brother for too long recently and has picked up a lot of bad habits. Stay away from him."
"Xie Yuhua, do you dare to let your second brother hear this?"
"Tsk, Lu Jianheng, I told you not to call me that." Xie Yi glanced at Lu Jianheng and his gaze fell on Lu Shiman again.
"In your Lu family, our little Manman is the most normal and well-behaved." Xie Yi raised his hand again, with his bony palm suspended in the air, wanting to rub Lu Shiman's furry head.
The last time they rubbed each other at the door of the bar, he missed it a little. The feeling was much better than touching Wang Jiangang.
When the fingertips were three inches away from the top of the fluffy hair, the cold white fingers suddenly broke through the warm yellow halo.
Ji Linshen gripped his wrist like an iron clamp.
Xie Yi raised his eyes and met the other person's abyss-like pupils, and found that the foreshadowing of a blizzard was surging in those eyes that had always been indifferent.
"Mr. Ji." He smiled and pulled his hand back, his thumb unconsciously stroking his red wrist.
When Ji Linshen let go of him, he took Lu Shiman half a step behind him. This possessive gesture made Lu Shiman slightly stunned.
"Brother San, please go ahead. We'll leave first." He nodded with his eyelashes drooping, casting a fan-shaped shadow under his eyes.
Lu Shiman turned around and waved: "Third brother, Feather brother, bye~"
Ji Lin listened carefully to the name "Brother Feather" in his ear, and his fingers on her shoulders suddenly tightened. The mirror in the corridor reflected his tense jawline.
"Call me brother whenever you see me?" His Adam's apple rolled heavily in the shadows, like swallowing a sour olive pit.
"Brother Jian Heng, Brother Yu Mao, I'll go over first." Qin Jiaojiao saw Lu Shiman being taken away, so she greeted them and hurriedly followed.
Leaving Xie Yi and Lu Jianheng standing there.
Xie Yi's mind raced: "What did Ji Linshen just call you? Third Brother!"
"No, Ji Linshen, should I call you Third Brother?"
"Did I hear correctly?"
Lu Jianheng was too lazy to pay attention to him and walked towards the reserved private room.
"Hey, wait for me, he really just called you Third Brother, did I hear it right?"
"You ascended on my back, Ji Linshen even called you brother, you..."
"Xie Yumao, can you please shut up? You're making so much noise. Are you going to eat your meal or not?" Lu Jianheng squinted at him and quickened his pace.
In the private room, dishes were served one by one.
Lu Shiman was talking to Qin Jiaojiao in a low voice.
"Your third brother was such a piece of shit last time..."
"The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I should have kicked him twice just now." Qin Jiaojiao said angrily.
"It wasn't like this when you liked my third brother." Lu Shiman smiled and joked in a low voice.
"When I liked Lu Jianheng, I didn't know he was a..." Qin Jiaojiao's high-pitched voice stopped abruptly, and she subconsciously looked at Huo Beiyan.
Huo Beiyan stroked the condensed water droplets on the wall of the cup with his fingertips, and the sound of ice cubes colliding happened to close the sentence "I like Lu Jianheng".
His Adam's apple rolled violently as he tilted his head back to drink, but the amber wine could not extinguish the dark color surging in his eyes.
Lu Shiman and Qin Jiaojiao enjoyed the meal to their heart's content, while Ji Linshen and Huo Beiyan were bored.
After coming out of the restaurant, Lu Shiman hugged Qin Jiaojiao goodbye for a long time before reluctantly getting into the car.
"Why is the baffle raised? I was thinking..."
Before she finished speaking, Ji Linshen suddenly leaned over, pinched her waist and pressed her against the glass, his warm breath brushing her trembling eyelashes.
The neon lights passing by outside the window revealed the emotions in his eyes, and he uttered three words in a hoarse voice: "Call me brother."
