My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 77 - 0: Still not leaving?
Chapter 77: 077: Still not leaving?
Cen Jin exchanged glances with him, noticing that the girl beside him pursed her pink lips tightly. She shook the water off her hands, walked a little closer, and asked, "What are you doing here?" The faint scent of alcohol reached her nose, making her pause slightly. She looked at him, her eyes unwavering: "Have you been drinking?"
"Yeah, just a little." Jiang Baizhou took in her previous actions and responded softly, but he showed no intention of engaging with the girl beside him. Instead, he asked, "What about you? What are you doing here?"
"Having a meal with Yun Xi and Ling Ran."
"Just the three of you?"
"Yeah."
Seeing Cen Jin nod, Jiang Baizhou seemed relieved: "When are you leaving?"
"Leaving soon, what about you?"
"Together."
"Did you drive here?"
"Yeah."
"Can you drive like this?"
"I have a designated driver."
"Oh..." Cen Jin elongated her response, noticing him turning and walking forward, and she gave a deliberate look at the girl next to him.
Jiang Baizhou took a few steps forward, realizing that Cen Jin hadn’t followed, so he turned and looked back at her: "Not leaving yet?"
"Coming." Cen Jin withdrew her gaze and walked over.
The girl who had been ignored by both of them stood there in a daze, and by the time she snapped out of it, they were already gone, making her stomp her foot angrily before she turned and headed to the restroom.
"Cen Jin, over here." As soon as she walked out of the restroom area and into the dining area, Yun Xi, who emerged from the next-door table, waved at her and walked over with Ye Lingran. He also noticed Jiang Baizhou beside her, instinctively commenting, "Cen Jin, you went to the restroom and picked up Jiang Baizhou?"
Jiang Baizhou: "..."
Jiang Baizhou listened and gave her a deep look with narrowed eyes.
Cen Jin lowered her head and laughed: "Just bumped into him outside the restroom."
Ye Lingran walked over and nodded at Jiang Baizhou in greeting.
Yun Xi, however, seemed unaffected by Jiang Baizhou’s sharp gaze and playfully stuck out his tongue at him.
On the other side, Lu Xize and Ke Yuanfan happened to see them too. Lu Xize knew Cen Jin but was unfamiliar with the two pretty girls beside her, so he walked over with them: "Yo! Cen Jin, the great beauty, you’re here too! What a coincidence."
Seeing Lu Xize, Cen Jin roughly figured out why Jiang Baizhou was here, and she greeted him with a smile: "Yes! What a coincidence, I’m here to dine with friends."
"And who are these lovely ladies?"
"Uh, let me introduce you! This is my studio partner, Ye Lingran, and this is Yun Group’s design director, Yun Xi. Ling Ran, Yun Xi, this is Jiang Baizhou’s college friend and a psychologist, Lu Xize, and this is... ." She paused when introducing Ke Yuanfan, not recognizing him since it was her first time meeting him.
Ke Yuanfan noticed her pause and smiled: "I’m Ke Yuanfan, nice to meet you all."
After the introductions, they went to the front desk to pay the bill. Jiang Baizhou had invited Ke Yuanfan for that meal, so he naturally paid the bill. While paying, he also covered Cen Jin and her friends’ table, and then they all left the restaurant together.
Since the three of them had been drinking, Jiang Baizhou and Ke Yuanfan hired designated drivers. Cen Jin and her friends had come in Yun Xi’s car. Since Cen Jin and Jiang Baizhou were headed in the same direction, Yun Xi drove Ye Lingran back, while Cen Jin rode in Jiang Baizhou’s car. Lu Xize initially planned to take a taxi, but when the designated driver arrived, he ended up going back in Ke Yuanfan’s car.
