Chapter 838: Dramatic Life
Um…
Xu Jinchen didn’t agree at once, because he thought that it was inappropriate. What if Zi Shaomin found out that he brought his beloved younger sister to meet with his friends for a drink?
“Is it inconvenient? If so, I can go drink by myself,” Zi Beiying said. Anyway, she was determined to drown her sorrows today.
“Not at all, let’s go!” He wouldn’t let her drink alone; it wasn’t safe. Although Zi Beiying had bodyguards by her side, she was in an unfamiliar place after all.
After that, Zi Beiying’s group followed Xu Jinchen inside.
Since Zi Beiying wanted to drink, Mengda and Nan couldn’t stop her. They wouldn’t drink because they needed to protect her.
When they walked into the private room together, Xu Jinchen’s friends were surprised, but didn’t say anything, then they shared the alcoholic drinks.
…
At the same time, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were dining in a restaurant. To be specific, Leng Shaoting was eating while Gu Ning was watching him eat. Leng Shaoting came to meet Gu Ning the second he finished his task, so he hadn’t eaten anything yet.
A while later, Leng Shaoting received Xu Jinchen’s message.
Xu Jinchen: Boss, let me tell you some shocking news. I just ran into Zi Beiying and she looked so hurt after I told her that you already have a girlfriend. She’s drowning her sorrows now.
Leng Shaoting frowned while reading the message, and was surprised that Zi Beiying was also in City B now. He didn’t know that Zi Beiying actually had conflicts with Gu Ning before they became friends.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Ning asked with concern.
“Nothing,” Leng Shaoting said. He was unwilling to let Gu Ning know about Zi Beiying’s affection towards him. It wasn’t necessary in his eyes, because he never paid much attention to Zi Beiying.
Gu Ning didn’t ask further either.
When Leng Shaoting was almost finished with his meal, Gu Ning went to the ladies’ room and received Zi Beiying’s call.
“Ningning, where are you right now? I just lost my love. I’m drinking in private room No. 666 of XX Clubhouse now. Can you come?” Zi Beiying said, and sounded sorrowful.
“Sure, I’ll be there in a while.” Gu Ning agreed. She was a little worried about Zi Beiying.
After she went back to the table, Gu Ning told Leng Shaoting that she needed to meet a friend who was in a terrible mood.
Leng Shaoting agreed.
Xu Jinchen didn’t tell Leng Shaoting where they were drinking just then, so Leng Shaoting wasn’t aware of the club in which they were, nor that the person Gu Ning was going to meet was the same one Xu Jinchen just told him about.
Once Leng Shaoting finished dinner, they went to the club together.
When Xu Jinchen heard Zi Beiying call the other person Ningning on the phone, he didn’t think that the person she was talking to was Gu Ning, because there were many people with Ning in their names after all. He thought that the person could be Zi Beiying’s friend in City B.
Therefore, when Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting pushed the door open walking inside, Xu Jinchen was astonished.
Why did they come here? How did they know that I was here?
Not only was Xu Jinchen surprised, but Zi Beiying, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were as well.
Zi Beiying was surprised to see Leng Shaoting with Gu Ning. She wondered whether Gu Ning was Leng Shaoting’s girlfriend. Thinking of that, she somehow felt much better. Although she didn’t know Gu Ning’s family background yet, she accepted the fact that Gu Ning was more outstanding than her.
Gu Ning, on the other hand, was surprised to see Xu Jinchen drinking with Zi Beiying.
Leng Shaoting was surprised to know that Gu Ning’s friend was Zi Beiying. Do they know each other?
It was so dramatic!
After the shock, Xu Jinchen was a little worried. He was afraid that Zi Beiying might argue or even fight with Gu Ning for her love.
Xu Jinchen had no idea that it was Zi Beiying who called Gu Ning to come.
“Hi, Ningning!” Zi Beiying stood up at once to welcome Gu Ning. She didn’t treat Gu Ning badly because Gu Ning was Leng Shaoting’s girlfriend, but she didn’t dare to meet Leng Shaoting’s eyes now.
Hearing that, Xu Jinchen was stunned, then realized that Gu Ning came here because of Zi Beiying. He now had the same thought as Leng Shaoting. Do they know each other?
Gu Ning and Zi Beiying walked over to sit on the sofa, while Leng Shaoting went to sit with Xu Jinchen.
“Do you know each other?” Gu Ning asked after she was seated.
“Yeah,” Zi Beiying said, feeling slightly uneasy. “Shaoting and Jinchen are my older brother’s friends, and we’ve met a few times before.”
Gu Ning sensed that Zi Beiying was a little nervous, but she didn’t know why.
After that, Xu Jinchen introduced his other two friends to Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting before they continued to drink.
“Let’s have a toast!” Gu Ning lifted her glass towards Zi Beiying.
“Yay!” Zi Beiying clinked her glass against Gu Ning’s, but the drink tasted different now that she was cheered up.
Seeing that Zi Beiying was not as sad as she sounded on the phone, Gu Ning asked with curiosity, “Didn’t you tell me that you just lost your love? Why you look so happy now?”
“Um, yeah, I did lose my love, but I feel much better now after drinking.” Zi Beiying didn’t want Gu Ning to know that her love was actually Leng Shaoting.
Zi Beiying did like Leng Shaoting, but she wanted to conquer him more, so she didn’t love him deeply. Now that she found out that Gu Ning was Leng Shaoting’s girlfriend, she didn’t feel sad at all, but felt happy for them.
“Gu Ning, how did you get to know Miss Zi?” Xu Jinchen asked. Both he and Leng Shaoting were curious about it.
“We had some conflicts in the beginning, but then became friends,” Gu Ning replied.
