Chapter 156 - Fate Works in Mysterious Ways (2)

There were things that Chen Jinlin understood even without him saying it.

he was very fortunate that she was willing to give him his own space so that he could quietly pretend to surprise her without her knowing anything.

Entrepreneurship and love can be put on the same line.

It just depends which one is more important when you let them enter your mind, and to see how you were going to deal with these two things that were prone to clashing.

It’s just that on the day of the dinner…

Luo Xiao would never expect to be able to meet his girlfriend’s sister by coincidence.

At the elegant restaurant lobby, the crystal chandelier above his head was shining in a not-so-dazzling way. Luo Xiao stood there, eyes narrowed to hide the shock in them. Twenty minutes ago, their group had booked a room early so they were chatting away enthusiastically inside while waiting for Chai Yue and the others to arrive. When Luo Xiao received the text from Chai Yue, he stood up immediately and raised his hand to indicate that they could welcome their guests soon. Then, tidying up his clothes, he went out to greet them.

In fact, Chai Yue was the only person Luo Xiao had been in contact with.

He acted just like a middleman responsible for working things out between them.

But he knew a lot. While talking to him, he didn’t need to think too much. He just had to explain everything clearly and he will pass on the word.

Moreover, it was normal not to get the contact information of the boss behind the scenes before this meal.

But right at this moment, Luo Xiao vaguely guessed it would happen.

Little did he know that Chai Yue was the one who took the initiative to monopolize them.

Anyone would be greedy to see a hot steaming basket of buns in front of them, especially a professional man like Chai Yue. It was his habit, and moreover, the other party was his good brother. Naturally, he was happy to show up himself. What’s more, he also wanted to buy some small shares…

In this regard, Yan Cheng held the thought that “good brothers should share their joys and burdens”, so he didn’t think too much about other weird opinions.

And so, it led to this current situation.

Luo Xiao’s brain hasn’t reacted yet when his body went over out of instinct. After shaking hands with Chai Yue and Yan Cheng, he finally went through the process to greet Chen Jinyao. When his eyes stopped on Chen Jinyao, there was a struggle in his eyes, but he blurted out without thinking. “Sis.”

Chen Jinyao, “…”

Yan Cheng frowned. “?????”

During her time in Hangzhou, Chen Jinyao had a good impression of Luo Xiao.

After gradually getting to know each other over the next few days, Luo Xiao also wasn’t as awkward as before. With Chen Jinyao’s consent, he took Chen Jinlin’s advice to call her “Sis” directly. After calling her that for such a long time, it had already formed a natural reflex.

Now that he blurted it out like this, Luo Xiao scratched his head and had no idea how to feel for a moment.

He wished he could tear a hole in the ground so he could hide in it.

Yan Cheng scanned Luo Xiao and Chen Jinyao back and forth with an inquiring gaze.

He didn’t hold back his anger at all and pursed his lips, raising his brows, squinting his eyes as well.

Chen Jinyao glared at him from the corner of her eye. It didn’t take much to understand what he was thinking. She just wanted to reach out and cover her face. But after some thought, she decided to give up on that. Instead, she jabbed Yan Cheng in the waist and while he looked down, she motioned over to him for him to lean over with his eyes before whispering an explanation. “Jinlin’s boyfriend.”

Things were awkward.

But since things have already come to this, it was no matter for it to be just a tad bit more awkward.

Looking at each other, they were quiet for a few seconds.

Chen Jinyao nodded and responded to Luo Xiao with a hum.

Then, she moved her hand to Yan Cheng and said calmly, “This is your brother-in-law.”

Luo Xiao, “……”

Luo Xiao narrowed his eyes. “Brother-in-law.”

Yan Cheng almost wanted to whistle, but under the threat of Chen Jinyao’s gaze, he didn’t dare to. He just put on the demeanor of an elder and nodded. “Yeah.”

“……” After the surprise, Chai Yue was the only one who felt like the outsider here, frowning. He truly was feeling quite complicated at the moment.
