She saw Fu Huai 'an holding Lin Nuan's slender waist and walking towards them under the guidance of the waiter …
Xie Jingqian nudged Ji Zibai with her elbow and held onto his arm. She stared at Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an with her beautiful round eyes and asked Ji Zibai in a sweet voice, "Big Bai, do you think … Is Fu Huai' an's wife prettier or am I?"
Ji Zibai looked at Xie Jingqian's expectant eyes, then looked in Fu Huai 'an and Lin Nuan's direction …
Fu Huai 'an turned his head and said something to Lin Nuan. Lin Nuan, who had delicate features, looked surprised. She covered her mouth with her hand and smiled as she opened and closed her mouth.
Ji Zibai retracted his gaze and put the cigarette back into the pack. He put down the lighter.
The phone in his pocket vibrated. Ji Zibai leaned towards Xie Jingqian and stretched out his long legs under the table. He took out his phone from his pocket and said, "It's fine if you're ugly, but I'm blind!"
Xie Jingqian was speechless.
Seeing Ji Zibai answer the call, Xie Jingqian clenched her fist and raised it at Ji Zibai's head. She gritted her teeth and glared at Ji Zibai, then turned around and took a sip of fruit juice angrily.
"Who told you that there's a bachelor party tonight?" Ji Zibai's magnetic voice was filled with anger.
Xie Jingqian stretched her ears while biting on the straw. She heard You Jiaxin call her "Little Aunt" on the other end of the phone. Xie Jingqian's mood immediately brightened.
Ji Zibai turned to look at Xie Jingqian. She quickly put down her glass of fruit juice and looked at Ji Zibai as if she was waiting for a compliment. "I called my third brother, third sister-in-law, Tang Xi, and Xinxin! Why else do you think we're sitting at such a big table? "
Ji Zibai was speechless.
Ji Zibai couldn't be bothered to argue with Xie Jingqian. He said, "You and Tang Xi, don't come over! Call your sister. There's no bachelor party tonight! Go back when you're at the door! "
You Jiaxin said something in a low voice on the other end of the line. Ji Zibai raised his eyebrows even higher. His slender and fair fingers tapped on the table. "Delicious food? Do you want to eat the uppers of my shoes?! "
Ji Zibai hung up the phone and looked at Xie Jingqian, who had taken matters into her own hands. His clear gaze made Xie Jingqian's hair stand on end. She giggled and held onto Ji Zibai's arm. She grabbed Ji Zibai's large hand and placed it on her face. She said coquettishly, "Aiya! It's because I know you only have Fu Huai 'an as your best brother, so I called Tang Xi and Third Brother over to get to know them better so that they can take care of you in the future in business! I know you're worried about Fu Huai 'an, and I want to share your burden! Why are you glaring at me when I'm so obedient … "
Xie Jingqian was right. Ji Zibai only had one brother, Fu Huai 'an.
All these years, Fu Huai 'an had turned to business instead of being a lawyer, and Ji Zibai couldn't help much …
He saw that Fu Huai 'an's smoking addiction was getting stronger by the day, that he was sleeping less and less, and that he was becoming more and more reticent. The look in his eyes was becoming more and more unfathomable, and he exuded an aura that was deeper than that of an old man. Ji Zibai didn't know what he should do to help.
It might seem pretentious for a man to say this, but Ji Zibai truly felt sorry for Fu Huai 'an from the bottom of his heart.
When Ji Zibai interacted with Xie Jingqian, he thought that the sharp-tongued Ji Zibai would definitely have the upper hand. However, Xie Jingqian was too good at manipulating Ji Zibai's personality. He was amenable to coaxing but not coercion!
Therefore, Xie Jingqian had developed the ability to act coquettishly. She was very good at it, and no matter what the situation was, as long as she acted coquettishly in front of Ji Zibai, she would definitely pass!
If acting coquettishly once didn't work, then she would do it twice! She would definitely be able to take down Ji Zibai.
…
Lin Nuan was indeed surprised when Fu Huai 'an said that his friend was the painter Ji Zibai.
Lin Nuan knew that Ji Zibai was a contemporary painter who was unsurpassed in the art of realistic painting. His extreme realistic style was said to be the pinnacle that humans couldn't reach, a level that only gods could reach. Although Ji Zibai was being overly flattered, it wasn't hard to imagine that Ji Zibai's paintings must be amazing.
Lin Nuan clutched the sleeves of her sweater nervously, not because she wanted to meet the mysterious painter Ji Zibai, but because she wanted to meet a very important friend of Fu Huai 'an.
Lin Nuan had seen many big shots in the broadcasting building in Haicheng, but she had never felt so nervous.
From afar, she saw Ji Zibai raise his hand to signal to Fu Huai 'an. He nodded and walked over with Lin Nuan. It was Ji Zibai's first time meeting his good friend's wife, and it was rare for a man with an unruly personality like him to stand up politely.
Fu Huai 'an introduced them to Lin Nuan in an elegant manner. "This is Ji Zibai, and this is Ji Zibai's fiancée, Xie Jingqian."
Ji Zibai nodded at Lin Nuan. He saw that Lin Nuan's facial features were delicate and exquisite, and her eyes were as clear as the clear blue lake of Malta!
It was said that the eyes were the window to the soul, and Ji Zibai's eyes as an artist had always been sharp …
Ji Zibai had seen many people. In order to achieve the pinnacle of his painting, he had always been observing the people in this world. Sometimes, he would be in the shabby shantytown, observing the commoners who worked hard to make a living and fought over trivial matters. Sometimes, he would be in an elegant concert hall, where he would meet the upper class who were high and mighty.
Through Lin Nuan's clear eyes, he could vaguely see the purity and tenacity in her heart.
Ji Zibai had already found out about Lin Nuan's trip to Iraq on the Internet. He had also met the Grim Reaper once, and they had the same feelings. However, the two of them faced different situations. Ji Zibai accepted it helplessly and awkwardly, but Lin Nuan had a choice.
He didn't know much about Lin Nuan, but he admired her. This was the confidence he had in his eyes as an artist.
Ji Zibai smiled kindly at Lin Nuan and stretched out his hand. "Ji Zibai!"
Lin Nuan respectfully held her right wrist with her left hand and held Ji Zibai's fingertips. "Hello, Lin Nuan."
"Hello!" Xie Jingqian stretched out her hand and smiled sweetly. "I'm Xie Jingqian! I've watched your show! You've successfully made me your fan! "
Xie Jingqian liked to read gossip on Weibo, so she knew everything about Lin Nuan.
When Xie Jingqian found out that Lin Nuan had once risked her life to go to Iraq for a man, she felt that this didn't match the image Lin Nuan presented to the public, but she was also deeply impressed.
When she heard that Fu Huai 'an's wife was Lin Nuan, Xie Jingqian was shocked. She didn't think that Lin Nuan would marry a man like Fu Huai' an.
Lin Nuan gave people the feeling that she was calm, confident, and aloof!
Even when there was a wave of criticism against Lin Nuan on the Internet, she didn't come out to clarify the situation.
Xie Jingqian always felt that such a quiet girl wouldn't have a spark with someone as taciturn as Fu Huai 'an.
