Chapter 2637: Chapter 441: I’m Relieved That You Don’t Have a Girlfriend (Bonus 11)
Bai Xiaoxiao tried to hold it in.
But she couldn’t hold back a “pfft,” and said, “If I didn’t know, would I have married you?”
“You never told me back then.”
“I thought you knew even if I didn’t say it.”
Seeing Luo Haofeng’s aggrieved expression.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s face changed instantly, looking more aggrieved than he did.
Luo Haofeng, seeing his wife upset, momentarily forgot about their precious daughter, “Xiaoxiao, I was just teasing you. Of course, I know what you think. Back then, you fell for me at first sight, believing I was the husband God created just for you…”
Bai Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes.
She smiled brightly, “Ah Feng, are you serious?”
“Ah haha, let me correct myself; I got too excited just now. It was I who knew at first sight that you were the wife God created for me, I fell in love with you at first sight…”
…
When Bai Qingling and Chu Junming arrived at Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, there were hardly any guests left.
But some encounters are inevitable.
As they entered the hall, they saw Jian Ye, who had just finished eating, walking towards them.
Beside him was his buddy, but he lagged a few steps behind because he was taking a call.
Upon seeing Bai Qingling walk in, Jian Ye’s eyes lit up, and he quickened his pace, “Qingling, what a coincidence, seeing you twice in one day.”
Bai Qingling also hadn’t expected to meet Jian Ye here.
She smiled and said, “Indeed, what a coincidence. Are you and your friend dining here too?”
“Ever since you first brought me here, I’ve been coming by frequently. The food here is just too good.”
Jian Ye was quite handsome, and his short hair, which had been colored without her knowing, was slightly curled upwards, revealing diamond earrings.
His sparkling eyes looked at Bai Qingling with a smile, “Qingling, who is this?”
He finally noticed the man behind Bai Qingling.
With just one glance, Jian Ye realized the man was no ordinary person.
The good-looking man, without waiting for Jian Ye to ask, glanced at him and then warmly gazed at Bai Qingling.
At this moment, Chu Junming looked up at Jian Ye.
Their eyes met.
Jian Ye could feel an aura of power emanating from him.
He was momentarily dazed, thinking he might have seen Chu Junming in the afternoon.
That time in the restroom…
Bai Qingling turned her head to glance at Chu Junming and introduced him with a smile, “He is a client of our company and also my friend, Chu Junming. Chu Junming, this is Jian Ye.”
“Hello, Mr. Jian.”
“Mr. Chu, hello.”
The two shook hands, and the man who had been on the phone finished his call and put his phone away as he approached Jian Ye.
Seeing Chu Junming and Bai Qingling, his eyes showed surprise, and he beamed, “Young Master Chu, Miss Bai, what a coincidence, you know Jian Ye?”
“Yes, we know each other.”
Jian Ye replied to this.
He turned his head, “Qiang, you know them too?”
Lin Qiang.
He was Jian Ye’s business partner.
Upon hearing Jian Ye’s words, Lin Qiang smiled and explained, “I knew Miss Bai from before, and Young Master Chu is now a client of our company. Young Master Chu, the chief interior designer I mentioned before, who is going to handle your villas, is Jian Ye. He was on a business trip and just returned yesterday.”
Chu Junming’s eyes flashed with a bit of surprise, but his expression showed no change, only a slight polite yet distant curve at the corner of his mouth.
“Ah Ye, this is Young Master Chu I was talking about earlier… Young Master Chu, I have explained to Ah Ye, and he said he’d provide another design draft and make some modifications to the details of your two villas.”
Lin Qiang, although he didn’t know Chu Junming before.
He knew he was one of the Four Young Masters of the Capital, and he also understood that two of the Four Young Masters have married into the big families of G City.
Just the identity of Chu Junming as one of the Four Young Masters and president of the Chu Group was enough to treat him as the most honored guest with utmost care.
Thus, Lin Qiang promised Chu Junming that his returned partner from overseas would take charge of his two villas.
Chu Junming nodded in agreement, “Alright.”
Jian Ye’s expression changed slightly, but not childish by any means; he quickly wore a suitable smile again, “Since it’s such a fortuitous meeting with Young Master Chu, perhaps we could take a bit of your time…”
“It’s too late tonight, let’s make it another day.”
Chu Junming interrupted Jian Ye before he could finish.
He glanced down at Bai Qingling, who looked puzzled, and spoke softly by her ear, “I’ll explain it to you more in detail later.”
Chu Junming’s voice was so low.
It was almost only audible to Bai Qingling.
Jian Ye and Lin Qiang, even from their positions, might not be able to hear clearly what he said.
Bai Qingling felt a warmth in her ear, the familiar male scent brushing past, and before she had time to react, his scent had already moved away.
She looked up and saw Chu Junming smiling gently at her.
Bai Qingling’s eyes twinkled as she touched her ear, “Jian Ye, it really is late tonight, besides, we just finished working overtime. If you want to talk, let’s arrange another time. I just want to eat something and quickly head home to rest.”
After saying this, she covered her mouth and yawned.
Seeing this, Chu Junming took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over, “I’ve been busy lately. For issues regarding the villa’s renovation, contact Yi Ze; he’s one of the owners.”
Lin Qiang took the business card with both hands, and seeing the name on it, was once again shocked.
He looked up at Chu Junming again, “Alright, Young Master Chu, we will contact Young Master Feng.”
…
After seeing Lin Qiang and Jian Ye off.
Bai Qingling didn’t feel like going upstairs, so the two of them chose a window seat right there in the first-floor hall.
Because earlier she saw a post by Ziyang about eating spicy boiled fish at Ye Zhan’s home, Qingling was tempted and ordered a spicy boiled fish too.
She looked up to ask Chu Junming what he’d like to eat, only to see him slightly frowning at her.
His eyes held disapproval.
Bai Qingling blinked and asked him, “Chu Junming, what do you want to eat?”
“Add a vegetable dish.”
“Alright, that’s it, let’s hurry up.”
After the waiter left, Bai Qingling leaned forward, resting her arms on the table, her eyes smilingly fixed on Chu Junming.
“Chu Junming, do you have a girlfriend?”
“Huh?”
Chu Junming’s phone beeped as a message came in.
He was reaching for his phone when caught off guard by Bai Qingling’s question.
He looked up, a momentary flicker of surprise on his elegant face, his eyes twinkling.
“Does not answering mean you don’t have one?”
Bai Qingling waited for two seconds.
Seeing Chu Junming’s bewildered expression, and after searching through her mind, she hadn’t heard of him having a girlfriend, so he probably didn’t have one.
Chu Junming had no idea why she asked this.
Under her fervent gaze, he slowly nodded, his voice low, “No.”
Bai Qingling smiled.
Her arm, which had been resting on the table, now propped up her chin as she tilted her head, watching the man across from her check his messages.
“Then I’m relieved.”
“…”
Chu Junming’s fingers paused over the message.
Looking up, he gazed across the table at Bai Qingling.
