She didn’t want to but noon was there. Chi Enen changed into another set of clothes. She took her bag and was getting ready to go out.
She had just reached the door when Wang Lin suddenly called her. One could not tell that she had just talked bad about her in the morning. Instead, she greeted her warmly. “Enen, let’s have lunch together.”
“It’s okay. I have an appointment.”
“Oh, you have an appointment?” She asked meaningfully. “Sure, then next time.”
Chi Enen could not be bothered about what they were gossiping behind her back. She hastened to leave.
She had just reached the intersection of the film set when she saw the black Maybach that was parked by the road.
She could tell at one glance that it was Li Beijue’s car.
Five years ago, he was going to buy a new car. He decided to buy a Bentley. But at that time she was addicted to the military television series and kept pestering him to buy a cross country car. In the end, Li Beijue went according to her wishes to buy this black Maybach.
To her surprise, he was still driving that car.
Chi Enen was reminded of how intimate he was with Sheng Aiyi previously. She brushed away all the unrealistic thoughts in her mind and opened the door to the car.
Sheng Aiyi was already inside. She rushed to rebuke Li Beijue at the sight of her. “Enen, I am sorry. I was waiting for you outside, but Beijue insisted that I got onto the car. He said that you will know which car is his, and that I might be cold waiting outside.”
“It’s alright. I happened to run into Young Master Jue by chance last time and I once rode in his car.”
The Maybach reached the Lan clubhouse in no time.
Perhaps the man did it on purpose, this restaurant was the place that they frequented the most when they were dating.
Her favorite dish was garlic scallops. Although he would complain that she had no taste, he would always take the initiative to order it for her.
“Enen, the salted prawns of this restaurant is delicious, you must try them.” Sheng Aiyi got off the car, holding Li Beijue’s arms. She was very enthusiastic in giving her recommendation. She turned as she held the menu in her hands. “Beijue, you like garlic scallops, don’t you? I’ll help you to order one serving.”
Chi Enen felt a sharp stab in her heart. She avoided the gaze that the man directed at her.
The three of them entered the private room.
Sheng Aiyi was very familiar with the menu and she had ordered a few dishes for them. She looked up and passed the menu to Chi Enen. “Enen, are there any dishes that you like? Don’t stand on ceremony. It’s my treat today.”
“Sure.”
Chi Enen flipped through the menu haphazardly and ordered two dishes, before returning the menu to the waiter. The waiter took the menu and poured three glasses of water for them before he left politely. “Please wait for a short while, the dishes will be served shortly.”
It was quiet and awkward in the private room.
Chi Enen took a sip of water.
Right then, Sheng Aiyi suddenly asked, “Enen, do you have a boyfriend?”
Chi Enen looked up abruptly. She did not notice that the man who had been looking grim was staring at her secretly.
Seeing that Chi Enen did not reply, Sheng Aiyi smiled. “I am just curious. I remembered that few of the men in the film crew are wooing you, but you don’t seem interested. Therefore, I am guessing that you might have a boyfriend.”
Chi Enen lowered her head, avoiding the man’s examining gaze. She placed the glass on the table. “Yes, I have a boyfriend.”
Without waiting for Sheng Aiyi to continue asking her…
She stood up and said, “Excuse me, I need to make a trip to the ladies room.”
“Oh, sure.”
She had just left when the cold man pulled the chair. “I am going out for a while.”
With that, he left the private room without a backward glance.
