Chapter 1109: Chapter 1110: Cui Jiangjing Arrives First
âOh,â Rong Yan finally lifted her head, looking as though she had just realized there were people in front of her. She put down the little guy from her knees into the seat next to her and said, âAlright, baby, weâre about to leave. Letâs sit down first, and mommy will help you buckle your seatbelt.â
Li Duidui had his own childâs seat, but he never wanted to sit in it when Rong Yan wasnât around. Now that Rong Yan was there, he obediently sat in the child-specific safety seat, letting Rong Yan buckle him in.
Li Shengxiao saw from the rearview mirror how obediently he was cooperating and his thin lips twitched, then he averted his gaze.
Once they were both seated and had their seatbelts fastened, he set off.
The black Hummer swiftly arrived at their destination.
It was Haicui Pavilion, one of the most famous Haidilao restaurants in Capital City. He parked the car in the outdoor parking lot, took the keys, and said to the two waiting for him, âLetâs go, we should head inside. Cui Jiangjing messaged heâs already there, waiting for us at our table.â
âHeâs arrived so fast?â Rong Yan was surprised and pulled out her mobile phone, âHold on, let me call and ask Xixi how far away she is.â
Li Shengxiao walked over and wrapped his arm around her waist, his handsome face full of possessiveness. He took a long stride and said, âLetâs walk and talk.â
âAlright.â Rong Yan, busy on the phone, didnât notice his display of ownership or perhaps was already so used to it that she didnât find a boyfriend hugging her waist odd. She followed his pace, focused on her call, while also holding onto the hand of their well-behaved Little Baby.
Their family of three was too attractive and immediately drew a lot of attention upon appearing.
The father and son, who both had a striking resemblance, were particularly eye-catching, making Rong Yan, following with them, the center of attention.
Rong Yan, wearing the same duckbill hat she always wore when going out, didnât notice the many glances she was getting. The phone kept ringing without an answer, and she put down the phone, mumbling curiously, âWhy didnât she answer the phone? Didnât she hear it?â
She tried calling again, but before it connected, she heard the deep, hoarse voice of the man beside her, âGu Linxi has arrived. Sheâs sitting with Cui Jiangjing.â
âLinxi is here?â Rong Yan lifted her head in surprise and looked towards the private room she had reserved. True enough, she saw a man and woman sitting opposite each other through the open door. They didnât know what the two were talking about. Gu Linxi showed little expression, but Cui Jiangjing looked delighted, throwing smoldering glances and flirtatious winks all over the place.
Rong Yanâs heart gave a lurch, and she quickly stepped inside, âLinxi, youâre here. I was worried you wouldnât be able to find the table, so I called you, but you didnât answer.â
Gu Linxi, who was being overwhelmed by someoneâs attentions, sighed in relief when she saw Rong Yan and the others come in, âYou called me? I didnât hear it.â
She flipped her phone over on the table and immediately saw an missed call notification from Rong Yan on the screen.
Gu Linxi glanced at it and then remembered, annoyed with herself, âI think I had set my phone to silent mode.â
Rong Yan didnât mind too much, pulled out the chair next to her, and said, âItâs okay, I just wanted to make sure you found the place. Youâre here now; it doesnât matter that you didnât pick up. Itâs not a big deal.â
âBy the way, Linxi, how did you know we were at this table?â She had only sent Gu Linxi the location of the restaurant and forgot to send the name of the reserved private room. Thatâs why she was in a hurry to call her.
