Chapter 79 - Be Careful IV (2/2)

Only now did she realize that something was wrong with her phone. After a while, she finally typed on the keyboard.

Lan: My phone seems to be broken. I didn't hear the call.

Qin: [grinning] Really? Let me buy you a new one. Tell me, do you want an iPhone or a Samsung? Or Nokia?

Lan: No need! I am not so poor that I need a man to buy me a new cell phone! Besides, we have nothing to do with each other!

The other side paused for a long time before replying.

Qin: Little Red, are you busy tonight? If you have no plans, come out for dinner with me. I just arrived at H City and my friends will bring their girlfriends. I have no one and it's going to be very awkward!

Lan: What dinner? Do you really need to bring a girlfriend?

Qin: There's nothing I can do. Everyone has a girlfriend, but I don't! [cry]

Lan: Then, why are you looking for me? With your wealth and influence, you can find random beauty on the street to be your girlfriend!

Qin: They are all unreliable, it would be better if I invited you.

Lan: I'm going home tonight, so I don't have time to accompany you. You should go find someone else.

Qin: Just once! Just accompany me once! Wipe eyes with tears [grieve] [cry] [jab one's fingers]

Lan: You a twenty-eight-year-old man, would you die if you don't bring your girlfriend?

Qin: Will...

Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched.

****

After working hours, she called Zhan An and told her that she had something to do that night and would be back a little late.

At 6:30 p.m, Jiang Ruolan was waiting for Qin Gengxin near the Hong Kong tea shop on Beidou Avenue where they had agreed to meet.

She wanted to know what kind of dinner will be arranged in such a small place? And he had to bring a girlfriend? She looked at the time, it was already 6: 10. Qin Gengxin still hadn't arrived yet.

She had to call him.

Just as she dialed the number, she saw that Qin Gengxin walking towards her from across the street.

”You actually have the nerve to be late!” Jiang Ruolan put down the phone in annoyance.

”Who would have thought that Beidou Avenue is so crowded? I don't often go to H City, so I don't know much about the roads here.” Qin Gengxin shrugged his shoulders indifferently. This time, he did not rush to put his arm on Jiang Ruolan's shoulder and instead walked quickly towards the tea house.

Jiang Ruolan pouted as she looked at his back.

Why was this brat dressed so formally today?

He wore a finely cut silver gray suit with a white shirt inside. That was a very normal combination but the green tie he chose was a bit strange.

In her memory, Qin Gengxin always dressed casually, never this weird. What was going on today? It was grand and strange.

Just as she was feeling confused, Qin Gengxin turned to look at her. ”What are you doing, slowpoke?”

”Ugh …Nothing.” Jiang Ruolan forced a smile.

Qin Gengxin walked straight to the restaurant and she followed with a quick step. The restaurant was filled with quiet and romantic surroundings and more importantly, no one was here.

Just when she was wondering if she had been tricked, she saw a beautifully dressed woman sitting in the corner next to the window. That woman looked like she was waiting for someone.
