Because it was work, Jiujiu wore a black business suit.
The black suit and the A-line dress gave Jiujiu a clean and neat vibe.
Because Jiujiu's face was still young, Jiujiu was afraid that she wouldn't be able to handle the situation, so her makeup was thicker. Especially her eyeshadow and lipstick, which were both darker colors, made her look more beautiful.
Fu Lei, who saw Jiujiu's clean and neat look for the first time, was instantly stunned. He almost instinctively walked in front of Jiujiu and reached out to carry Jiujiu's bag for her.
The moment Fu Lei's hand reached out, Jiujiu inadvertently turned, and Fu Lei's hand missed.
Jiujiu walked towards the parking lot. She turned her head to look at Fu Lei and said, "Where are you going? I'll drive. "
Fu Lei followed behind Jiujiu and whispered that he knew of a good western restaurant and wanted to take Jiujiu to try it.
Jiujiu nodded, opened the car door, and got in.
Fu Lei followed Jiujiu into the car, and Jiujiu drove to the western restaurant that Fu Lei had mentioned.
The western restaurant was a 20-minute drive from Jiujiu's workplace. Because it was after work and the roads were congested, it took Jiujiu a full 40 minutes to reach the entrance of the western restaurant.
But when they reached the entrance, the two of them awkwardly realized that the western restaurant wasn't open today.
Fu Lei took the initiative to invite Jiujiu to eat here, but the restaurant wasn't open. Fu Lei didn't want to be too embarrassed. Even with his tanned skin, there were red marks.
Seeing that Fu Lei was in a bad mood, Jiujiu was happy.
Now that Fu Lei wasn't feeling well, she was more comfortable than anyone else.
Just as Jiujiu and Fu Lei stood at the entrance of the western restaurant, they suddenly heard someone call Jiujiu's name. Jiujiu turned around and saw an old acquaintance.
Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian and Jiujiu were not roommates, nor were they in the same faculty. The only reason they knew each other was because Bai Xiaonian and Xiao Tian had both joined the Student Union. Since they were both rich second-generation heirs, their spending habits were similar, so Xiao Tian and Bai Xiaonian especially liked to go shopping together.
It could be said that Xiao Tian was the closest person to Bai Xiaonian in university.
After graduation, Bai Xiaonian went straight to her uncle's company to study, while Xiao Tian went to her family's company to study. Because they had just started working, both of them were exceptionally busy. It had been almost two months since they last saw each other.
Seeing that it was really Jiujiu, Xiao Tian's face immediately revealed a surprised smile. She strode over to Jiujiu and grabbed Jiujiu's hand, saying, "Oh, it's really you. I thought I was mistaken. Why are you here today?"
At this point, Xiao Tian was rather puzzled.
This was because in her impression, Bai Xiaonian did not like to eat Western food. Usually, she would not even bother to ask her to come. Why was she here today?
Could it be that she had a change of taste? That shouldn't be the case.
After Xiao Tian finished speaking, she subconsciously glanced at Fu Lei, who was standing beside Jiujiu like a knight in shining armor. She asked curiously, "This is? Your boyfriend? "
She did not know if it was Jiujiu's imagination, but when Xiao Tian said the word 'boyfriend', her voice trembled.
However, because the impression of Xiao Tian's trembling voice was very different from the impression of Xiao Tian in her mind, Jiujiu treated it as her own illusion. She only explained, "No, we're friends."
Hearing Jiujiu say that he was just a friend, Xiao Tian instantly let out a long sigh of relief. She immediately hugged Jiujiu's arm and kissed her, saying, "So he's just a friend. You scared me. I thought you were secretly in a relationship. Oh right, I know a barbeque restaurant nearby that has pretty good food. How about I treat you guys to a meal today?"
Xiao Tian's suggestion happened to resolve Fu Lei's awkwardness. Fu Lei quickly stood up and volunteered, "Let me do it."
"It's okay. Her family owns a mine. Let her treat."
Jiujiu looked at Xiao Tian and teased her.
Hearing Jiujiu say that her family owned a mine, Xiao Tian laughed out loud. She hugged Jiujiu's arm and led the way as she giggled and said, "If you know that my family owns a mine, why didn't you marry me earlier?"
Jiujiu pursed her lips. "Your brother is too cold. I'm scared that I'll freeze to death. I can't afford to offend him."
Xiao Tian was speechless.
Hearing Jiujiu say that her brother was too cold, Xiao Tian was about to cry.
Oh, Nian Nian, don't you know that every cold man has a little volcano hidden in his heart?
Although her brother looked cold on the outside, his heart was exceptionally rich.
After all, ever since she brought Bai Xiaonian to her house that time, her brother had a crush on her. Every time she came home, he would openly and secretly ask her why she didn't bring Bai Xiaonian home.
However, after she brought Bai Xiaonian home, her brother turned into a huge iceberg again. Although they sat together, he kept a straight face and didn't say a word. Looking at him, those who didn't know better would think that he had a grudge against Bai Xiaonian. Who would have thought that he had a crush on Bai Xiaonian?
After silently crying for her brother, Xiao Tian had an unkind thought. If her brother knew that she had eaten with Bai Xiaonian today, she wondered if he would regret rejecting her request to have a meal with his cute little sister.
Amidst Xiao Tian's rich inner thoughts, the three of them finally arrived at the barbeque shop.
Although this barbecue shop was newly opened, it was crowded due to the delicious taste. By the time the three of them arrived, it was already full. There were more than a dozen people waiting outside. If they wanted to enter, it would be impossible to enter without waiting for more than an hour.
Seeing that it was full, Fu Lei instantly frowned. He looked at Jiujiu and Xiao Tian and suggested, "Why don't we eat at another place?"
"Why do we have to change?" Hearing that Fu Lei wanted to change, Xiao Tian frowned in confusion. Then she turned to Jiujiu and said, "Nian Nian, this restaurant is owned by Xiao Han. I'll give him a call and ask him to get us a table."
After Xiao Tian finished speaking, she took out her phone and walked to the side. Sure enough, in less than three minutes, the owner of the barbeque shop came out and welcomed the three of them in.
Xiao Tian and Jiujiu walked together. Jiujiu teased her as they walked, "I was wondering why you suddenly thought of taking me out to eat barbeque. It feels like you're advertising for Xiao Han. Tell me, where are you two at now?"
Being hit on the heart by Jiujiu, Xiao Tian's face instantly turned red. Her eyes also changed from straightforward to shy as she said shyly, "What are you talking about, isn't it still the same old?"
"What do you mean by the same old? I can see that it's clearly Xiao Han who wants to marry you. You're stubbornly refusing to admit it."
Unlike Xiao Tian and Bai Xiao Nian's friendship, Xiao Tian and Xiao Han were neighbors in a small courtyard. When they were young, the two often played house. One was the father and the other was the mother. Because of this, the two parents once laughed and said they wanted to arrange a child marriage.
