My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 152: The Greatest Pride
"Of course, if it weren’t for me, you two would still be stuck in this loop! You really should thank me." Lu Shishu had no intention of being modest, held her head high with a righteous air, and even signaled to her with her eyes.
"Yes, yes, thank you, thank you. If it weren’t for you, I might really not have dared to take that step." Cen Jin chuckled, saying this while picking up a shrimp with chopsticks and placing it in her bowl, "Consider this a small token of my gratitude! It’s not much, but it’s something!"
Although she had asked Jiang Baizhou this question before, wondering if he would still remain indifferent if she hadn’t taken that step. Jiang Baizhou’s response was that even if she hadn’t said anything, he wouldn’t have held back much longer. He would have spoken up first, bringing her heart endless sweetness and happiness once again. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
The greatest satisfaction in life is probably being with the person you’ve secretly admired for years!
Most importantly, they were childhood friends, innocent and pure. They always maintained a friendship, and now they’ve pierced that ’friendship’ membrane and moved into a romantic relationship. There was no awkwardness or psychological discomfort, although sometimes it was a bit unnatural and embarrassing, especially when he looked at her with those starry-eyed gaze, making her feel especially shy.
"Okay, then I’ll graciously accept your little token of gratitude for now, and I’ll go to Jiang Baizhou for the big gratitude later." Lu Shishu nodded in satisfaction, saying this as she picked up the shrimp Cen Jin had placed in her bowl and ate it directly.
Just as they finished chatting, Yu Feici came in holding a few bottles of drinks and alcohol. In her other hand, she carried a plate of food, walking cautiously: "Hey, hey, hey, you two come over and help me quickly, I’m about to drop everything."
Upon hearing this, Cen Jin and Lu Shishu quickly got up to help. Cen Jin took the two bottles of drinks and the plate of food from her arm: "Why did you take so much? Couldn’t you have made two trips or asked us to come down and get them?"
"Oh, isn’t it just to avoid trouble? It’s not that I can’t carry them." Once Lu Shishu took a bottle of alcohol and orange juice, Yu Feici felt more relieved, openly laughing as she walked over to their dining table.
"Is this one of the new dishes Aunt Yu mentioned the restaurant just introduced?" Cen Jin gently put down the dish, asking in confusion.
"Yes! There are three new dishes in total. How did you find the other two?" Yu Feici put down the things and pulled out a chair to sit down, also opening the drinks and alcohol for them, pouring them into glasses, and pushing them in front of them.
Cen Jin picked up her chopsticks again to try it, then gave a thumbs-up, pointing with her other hand to a dish: "Hmm, very good, especially this dish, it makes me want to eat two more bowls of rice."
"That’s great, eat more then."
When they were almost finished eating, Yu Feici lifted her glass: "Come on, let’s toast. First, to the eternal friendship between the three of us, and second, hoping the three of us single dogs can soon find our destined partners."
Cen Jin laughed and raised her glass when she heard the first part but froze when she heard the latter part, her smile stiffening, blinking innocently with uncertainty, and lightly coughed: "Ahem... um, Feici, there’s something I need to tell you..."
"Feici, come down and help soon." Before Cen Jin could finish her sentence, the voice of Yu Feici’s uncle came from downstairs.
Yu Feici quickly took a sip of her drink, put down her glass, and shouted towards the stairs: "Okay, coming!" She said, rising and heading towards them: "You all continue eating, I’ll go see what’s up and be right back."
