After hearing this, Cen Jin pursed her lips and remained silent. If she said one more word, Ms. Qin would start a bombardnt.
Seeing Ms. Qin put the bowl on the table and head upstairs to rest, she quickly finished the rice in her bowl, served herself another small portion, polished off the two dishes on the table, and then satisfied, she got up to clear the bowls and chopsticks. She washed the dishes and tidied up the kitchen, then dragged her tired body upstairs, collapsed limply onto the bed, and was soon overco with drowsiness.
Before going to sleep, Cen Jin deliberately checked WeChat. Seeing that Jiang Baizhou hadn’t sent her any ssages, she decided not to bother him and pulled up the air-conditioning quilt to start her midday nap.
The morning had worn her out completely.
Ms. Qin left for the store at two-thirty in the afternoon, while Cen Jin was still sleeping. Ms. Qin only opened the door to take a look and didn’t wake her, then went out on her own.
When Cen Jin woke up, it was already three-thirty and she was awakened by a WeChat call from Yu Feici. Hearing her groggy voice, Yu Feici suspiciously asked, "You’re still sleeping?"
"Taking a nap! What’s up?" Cen Jin replied lazily with her eyes closed.
"It’s almost four o’clock; do you call this a nap? Are you planning not to sleep at night so you can steal cows?"
"Almost four o’clock?" Upon hearing this, Cen Jin suddenly opened her eyes, turned her head to look at the ti on the bedside table, and found it was only three-thirty-six. She couldn’t help but roll her eyes: "When are you going to fix this habit of lying about the ti? You’ve been doing this since school."
Yu Feici snorted, "It’s close to four, alright? Only twenty minutes away."
"..."
"Why are you calling?"
"To remind you about the single-life gathering tonight! Don’t forget!"
"Single-life gathering?" Cen Jin was stunned by these words and her mind cleared up. She suspiciously asked, "What single-life gathering?"
"Tsk! You really forgot! Didn’t I call you the other day to say there’s a dinner party tonight?"
"I rember! When did it beco a single-life gathering?"
"Oh! Don’t worry about those details! We’re all single dogs anyway, so no type of gathering matters. Alright, keep sleeping, I have to hang up now, a custor just ca into the store, need to help out. Don’t be late tonight!" After Yu Feici finished speaking, she hung up the phone imdiately, leaving no room for Cen Jin to respond.
Cen Jin was left speechless, with a pouty face. As for her relationship with Jiang Baizhou, aside from Lu Shishu, Ye Lingran, and her own family, it seed she hadn’t intentionally told anyone else.
The sun gradually set in the west, the twilight deepened slightly, and the evening breeze gently swayed the white sheer curtains and Nordic blackout drapes in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Lying in bed watching TV on an iPad, Cen Jin inadvertently glanced at the ti, saw that it was already five-thirty, and quickly got up from the bed. She took a quick shower in the bathroom, changed into a fresh dress, lightly applied so cushion, drew on her eyebrows and lipstick, put on a pair of flat sandals, grabbed her bag, and headed out.
She caught a cab at the neighborhood entrance to go to Yu Feici’s uncle’s restaurant.
By the ti she arrived, the sun had already set. Cen Jin walked in and happened to see Lu Shishu laughing and chatting with Yu Feici’s aunt. When Yu Feici’s aunt saw her, she smiled and waved imdiately. Cen Jin smiled and walked over slowly, exchanging a smile with Lu Shishu as a greeting, and said to Yu Feici’s aunt, "Aunt Yu, we’re here for another free al."
"Welco, welco, you can co every day, don’t worry about eating us poor," Yu Feici’s aunt, being a very straightforward and outspoken person, didn’t like to beat around the bush and naturally didn’t hide her affection for them.
