Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love-Chapter 765 - 300. [Heartbreaking Fairy Tale] The Beginning of the End (4)_4

People change, and that’s not a lie.

You see, if it were the old Lin Chu, she would have definitely rushed over upon seeing Lu Huai’an; she would have squeezed her way to his table no matter how much she had to nag.

But just a minute ago, Lu Huai’an glanced at her indifferently as if she were a stranger and then entered a private room with Shen Weiyi. She was surprisingly unfazed, and even felt a bit amused.

Her good friends were celebrating that her long-time unrequited love had finally met reciprocation, but she wasn’t thrilled for long before the male lead came with Cinderella to embarrass her. Isn’t that just hilariously ironic...

Regarding what Lin Chu said, Jiang Muzhou couldn’t muster any response other than a cold sneer, "I take Shen Weiyi away, so you can have Lu Huai’an all to yourself?"

Lin Chu rested her chin on one hand and blinked innocently, "Am I really that scheming?"

"Heh."

Too lazy to deal with a little punk, Lin Chu looked over at Wanxia and Xu Qiubai, "Have you all eaten enough? If so, go back to your respective homes, each looking for your own father. Single young girls and good young men shouldn’t be wandering the streets at night, it’s dangerous, you know?"

She patted Jiang Muzhou on her right, "And you, Jiang Muzhou, with so many enemies as Boss Jiang, you should go home early, too. After all, I’d like to stay friends with you for a few more years."

Her words were sharp as ever.

Jiang Muzhou expressionlessly brushed Lin Chu’s hand away, unable to hide the twitching of his mouth.

Wanxia understood the implication behind Lin Chu’s words: she wanted to be alone.

Looking at the state Lin Chu had gotten herself into with all the drinking, Wanxia could hardly be at ease. She softly said, "It’s still early. Once you’re done eating, we’ll take you home first."

Her plate of food was barely touched.

"Oh Wanwan, are you silly or what?" Lin Chu burst into laughter, sighing dramatically, "This restaurant only has one exit. With someone as noticeable as me sitting here, Lu Huai’an and Shen Weiyi will definitely see. If you guys are here, how can I pretend to be pitiful and get Lu Huai’an to take me home?"

Cinderella is Cinderella because she’s contrasted by scheming sisters. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

After Lin Chu finished her words, the first to leave was Jiang Muzhou.

Wanxia and Xu Qiubai exchanged glances and, without saying much, left the restaurant one after the other.

Around nine-thirty, Lu Huai’an and Shen Weiyi finished their dinner and came out of the private room.

The wine, of which a third was left, was now gone, and Lin Chu was leaning over the dining table, almost asleep.

After settling the bill, Lu Huai’an turned around and saw the drowsy Lin Chu.

Even though Lin Chu wasn’t wearing a camisole today but rather a somewhat conservative dress, someone as fashion-forward as her wouldn’t make herself look ugly just to hide scars.

The dress had a simple design but many details.

For instance, there was a teardrop-shaped opening at the front.

Because she was leaning forward, a certain area was faintly visible, coupled with the excessive drinking that made her scars itchy and painful, she kept shifting unconsciously.

Lu Huai’an’s face instantly darkened, his fingers gripping his phone tightened.

In a short span of time, the atmosphere around him changed, his brows furrowed, sending out signals of danger.

Even Shen Weiyi by his side noticed, although he himself seemed oblivious to it.

As if that brief anger was just an illusion, when he turned to Shen Weiyi, his eyes were calm and unperturbed, "I have something to do, can you go back on your own?"

Looking at the man’s stern face, a sense of bitterness slowly seeped into Shen Weiyi’s heart.
