âWomen are indeed creatures of honeyed words!â Chi Jingchen wanted to see Lin Anxin but was unwilling to easily forgive Chi Enen for the act of challenging his masculinity just now. He followed Chi Enen while holding back a remark.
Chi Enen automatically ignored his words and led him to the elevatorâ¦
Left Bank Restaurant was considered a fairly good restaurant in Rainy City, mainly because of its strong privacy. The restaurantâs management was very strict, and celebrities and socialites liked to dine here.
Guided by a waiter, Chi Enen found Table 502 and saw Lin Anxin standing up and waving at her, âEnen, over here.â
Lin Anxin had changed her hairstyle, sporting a shoulder-length, effortless bob that made her look relaxed yet full of feminine charm. However, Chi Enen wasnât sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that Lin Anxinâs abdomen seemed slightly swollen, as if she was pregnant.
But soon, Chi Enen dismissed the thought.
How could Anxin possibly be pregnant? She hadnât heard about Anxin having a boyfriend recently.
She put away her doubts and walked over.
âEnen!â Lin Anxin cheerfully patted her shoulder and sat down, âLong time no see, youâve become prettier.â
âAunt Anxin,â Chi Jingchen didnât fall behind and called out politely.
Lin Anxin immediately held him in her lap, pinching his rosy cheeks, and asked with a giggle, âIs my baby Chi being good, have you missed me?â
âI missed you. I called you, but your phone was off.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI was overseas shooting for a while. The company took on a big production and was secretly filming the whole time. That director overseas wouldnât allow mobile phones, and I spent a whole half-a-year living like a hermit. God knows what those days were like for me; fortunately, itâs over. Otherwise, I would have gone crazy.â
A waiter dressed in a suit and bow tie happened to come over and handed menus to both her and Chi Enen.
Chi Enen flipped through it, âAnxin, what would you like to drink?â
âThe usual, bring me a cup of coffâ¦,â Lin Anxin furrowed her brows slightly, ânever mind, just a fresh juice will do.â
âLet me think⦠watermelon juice.â
âHow about cake? Do you want some?â
Lin Anxin, thinking of the cloyingly sweet taste of cake, felt as though sheâd swallowed a fly, shook her head uncomfortably, âNo, Iâm not hungry today, donât feel like eating.â
ââ¦â Wasnât cake her favorite? Chi Enen holding the menu, offered, âThe mousse cake on the picture looks good; why donât you try a piece?â
Lin Anxin didnât even look at the menu, closed it quickly, âJust order one for baby Chi, I donât want any.â
She turned to place the order, âTwo steaks, one childrenâs meal, one mousse cake, three glasses of watermelon juice.â
âOkay,â the waiter took the menus and left.
Lin Anxin turned back and suddenly lowered her voice, âEnen, just now in the underground parking garage, I think I saw your dad.â
ââ¦â Chi Jianguo is here too?
âHe was with some unfamiliar woman, very young looking. That woman was even holding your dadâs hand, they seemed like a couple.â
âOh.â
Seeing her lack of interest, Lin Anxin closed her mouth. Since returning to Rainy City, sheâd heard about the recent scandal in the city involving Boss Gu of the Gu Group suspected of kidnapping, Chi Ya was in prison, and the Gu Group seemed on the verge of collapse, even Gu Qiaoâan had been summoned by the police. Surely there was a lot she didnât know about the incident, and since Chi Enen didnât want to talk, she didnât plan to ask.
At this time, Chi Enen stood up and said to her, âIâm going to the restroom.â
âOkay, go ahead.â Lin Anxin seemed to want to say something else, hesitated for a moment, but let her go regardless.
