Shi Qian looked at Jiang Ci and Huo Fei. They relishly drank.
Her gaze unconsciously fell on the red wine bottle, and she swallowed her saliva.
She wanted to drink.
Jiang Ci noticed her and saw through her thoughts. He smiled.
Shi Qian looked at him.
Jiang Ci smiled. “Drink some if you want to drink. Just don’t drink too much. I’ll send you back to school later.”
“What’s wrong? You want to drink and drive?”
“Of course, we’ll call for a designated driver. Otherwise, we’ll get Chi Yi to come over. Do you want some?” Jiang Ci asked as he held the bottle of red wine in his hand.
“Drink.”
Jiang Ci poured her a glass.
“Why don’t we order another bottle?” Huo Fei asked as he looked at the half-finished bottle of red wine.
Shi Qian turned to look at him.
“I haven’t drank drank recently. I haven’t attended any gatherings,” Huo Fei chuckled.
“What are you busy with?” Shi Qian asked.
“My dad has started to let me get in touch with the family business. I can’t come out to play anytime in the future,” Huo Fei sighed.
“Yes, you’ve reached the age where you should be doing proper things.” Shi Qian smiled.
At this moment, Jiang Ci’s phone on the table rang.
He glanced at the phone screen and picked up the call.
“Jiang Ci, where are you?” A woman’s voice sounded. “I have something to tell you.”
“You need me to be there now? You’re back in the country?” Jiang Ci asked.
“Yes, I just left the airport. Where are you? I’ll go and find you now.”
Jiang Ci thought for a moment and then said, “No need. Aren’t you going home afterward? I’ll see you later at home.”
“Alright, I’ll do that. Then I’ll wait for you at home.”
“Okay,” Jiang Ci hung up the phone. He put his phone back on the table.
“Sister Manxi is back!” Huo Fei glanced at the screen and asked.
“Yes, she is. She just got off the plane,” Jiang Ci answered casually, but a strange emotion flashed in his deep eyes.
Shi Qian drank and did not notice.
However, Huo Fei noticed it. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he did not ask further.
Jiang Manxi was Jiang Ci’s cousin and the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. She was on Jiang Ci’s side in this dispute.
Shi Qian wasn’t familiar with Jiang Manxi. She had met Jiang Ci at school two years ago. She never heard the two share a conversation.
“You don’t have to send me to school later. I’ll take a taxi back myself,” Shi Qian said.
“It’s fine,” Jiang Ci said. “I’ll go back after I send you off. It’s okay.”
“No need, you can do your thing,” Shi Qian said repeatedly.
“Brother Ci, why don’t you go back first? I’ll send Sister Qian back,” Huo Fei said.
Shi Qian smiled and said, “Am I a child? Or weak? I have to ask the two of you to send me off?!”
“Alright,” Jiang Ci chuckled. “Be careful on your way to school.”
The three finished their meal and prepared to leave afterward.
They walked out of the private room and into the hall.
Jiang Ci glanced at Shi Qian and suddenly said, “Wait.”
“What’s wrong?” Shi Qian stopped at her pace and turned to look at him.
Jiang Ci saw something stuck to Shi Qian’s hair and immediately raised his hand to clean it.
A familiar voice suddenly sounded from the side at the same time.
“Qianqian!”
Shi Qian suddenly turned her head toward the voice.
She saw Shang Sizhan and Yuwen Chengyuan standing at the door of one of the private rooms.
Beiming Yue and Murong Jing also walked out. Their gazes quickly fell on Shi Qian and Jiang Ci.
The sudden appearance of this person stunned Jiang Ci. His hand almost lingered on Shi Qian’s forehead for a while.
“Master Zhan! You’re here too!”
Beiming Yue looked at the scene before him and smiled. It was like a romantic drama show.
Jiang Ci came back to his senses and withdrew his hand calmly. He looked calm and didn’t show any panic or guilt..
