Shi Xiaoya checked her phone and said, “Sorry, Young Master Ling, but I really need to go or I’ll be late . ”
With that, Shi Xiaoya stepped aside and brushed past Han Zhuoling .
After taking a few steps, she realized Guo Yujie wasn’t following her .
Turning, she saw that Guo Yujie was still deeply immersed in the drama .
Shi Xiaoya sighed and coughed a few times loudly . Guo Yujie finally recovered, quickly saying to Han Zhuoling, “Then we’ll be going, Young Master Ling . ”
Then she ran after Shi Xiaoya .
Han Zhuoling pursed his lips, standing rooted at the entrance as he watched the girls walk towards the school .
When the two of them had disappeared from his view, someone said behind him, “Stop looking, they’re gone . ”
Han Zhuoling then turned around with a dark expression, grousing mentally about how long the two had been watching from the side .
He then saw a table full of peeled shells .
Haha!
Han Zhuoling huffed, “Where’s your table?”
Lu Man knew Han Zhuoling well enough and considered him a paper tiger .
He was someone who was aloof on the surface but treated his family excellently and never got angry with them .
Even so, she still felt slightly nervous looking at his expression .
She swallowed and pointed silently towards the table tucked deep inside the shop .
When the couple had gone over, they didn’t forget to tell the waiter that they were not done eating and he was not to clear the table .
Hence, the dishes were still displayed on the table .
Han Zhuoling glanced at the couple and led them back to the table .
Lu Man and Han Zhuoli followed him and sat .
Han Zhuoling sat directly facing them .
Lu Man waved the waiter over to collect Shi Xiaoya’s and Guo Yujie’s utensils and provide a new set .
Han Zhuoli then ordered a few more dishes according to Han Zhuoling’s taste .
They weren’t in a hurry since there was still plenty of time before the gala was to start .
If they went in early, they’d have to deal with others who wanted to socialize . They were in no mood to accommodate them .
So they chose to eat here leisurely .
Knowing that he had to drive home after the party, Han Zhuoli refused alcohol but asked if Han Zhuoling wanted some .
“I let Xiao Zhang off early, so I’m driving later . No alcohol for me,” Han Zhuoling explained .
Hence, they asked for another bottle of fruit juice .
“Driving by yourself later… are you going to send Shi Xiaoya home too?” Han Zhuoli asked, laughing .
Han Zhuoling was a picture of aloofness . “See how it goes first . ”
“Heh!” Han Zhuoli was sorely tempted to call Old Mrs . Han and Lin Liye right now and tell them what was happening .
Let them hear how Han Zhuoling was still in denial .
With Han Zhuoling’s temper, it’s best to let Old Mrs . Han whack him with the feather duster .
Just like Han Zhuoli before . He wasn’t in a hurry at first .
But he got whacked so many times by Old Mrs . Han that he bucked up his pace .
“Say, you’ve sent so many days’ worth of flowers, but what about today? Have you sent any?” Han Zhuoli questioned .
He had persisted for so long . Wasn’t it a waste to stop just as he was about to succeed?
Especially during important times like today, he can’t just drop the ball!
“…” Han Zhuoling drank a mouthful of the juice . “The flowers are with Xiao Zhang . He’ll be sending them to Shi Xiaoya later . ”
Lu Man: “…”
“Big Brother, since you came, why didn’t you bring the flowers?” he asked immediately .
Han Zhuoling: “…”
“It was always delivered by Xiao Zhang . ” Han Zhuoling cleared his throat uncomfortably . “One needs to be consistent . ”
Han Zhuoli: “…”
Lu Man: “…”
