"What’s wrong with your arm?" Rong Yan didn’t know why she noticed her own arm, lifted it to look, and seeing only a faint scar remaining, she said nonchalantly, "Oh, this scar was from an accident I had a long ti ago. It’s healed, but I didn’t pay attention to the scar left behind. Is it very noticeable?"
Chenyue was unsure whether she felt disappointed or so other emotion, shook her head, and gave a perfunctory smile, "It’s fine, not particularly noticeable."
She changed the subject herself, "Did Duidui like the cake this afternoon?"
ntioning Little Baby, Rong Yan’s eyes curved in a smile, and her whole being radiated warmth, like she was enveloped in a dim light, soft and peaceful, "He liked it very much, and asked to thank you. I’m really sorry for the trouble this afternoon."
"It’s okay, as long as he liked it. It was a hurried purchase, I should have asked which kind was tastier."
"No need, no need, you are too polite."
Chenyue found it impossible to dislike the girl in front of her, "It’s not being polite, I genuinely like that child. I don’t an to hide it, but from the first glance, I felt an inexplicable closeness to him. I truly like him and want to get to know him. If there’s a chance, bring him out, and we can have a drink together. We’ve encountered each other three tis in a single day; if that’s not fate, I can’t explain it. Since we’ve t by fate, bring him out next ti, and let’s all hang out together, get to know more people."
"..."
Rong Yan was easy to get along with, but Gu Linxi also said that she was soone who wouldn’t easily reach out to others.
Seeing that she didn’t respond, Chenyue smiled faintly, showing great decorum, not making her uncomfortable, "I just returned from abroad, haven’t been in Capital City for decades, and I don’t know anyone here. Perhaps my invitation sounds strange, but I an no harm. If it makes you uncomfortable, pretend I never asked."
Rong Yan lifted her eyelids, her eyes large and bright, "My son hasn’t started sumr break yet. When he does, if Mrs. Jiang is still in Capital City, I’ll give you a call."
Chenyue noticed the man next to her narrowing his eyes but didn’t hear him object to their making plans for tea in the afternoon, which was unexpected. But at her level, she wouldn’t show her emotions openly anymore.
She shifted her gaze away, smiled lightly, and took the lead, "Then it’s settled. Alright, I’d like to continue walking. Which direction are you heading?"
Rong Yan pointed in a direction.
She showed a look of regret and pointed in the opposite direction of Rong Yan, "My ho is this way, and it’s getting late, I need to head back. I won’t disturb your walk with your boyfriend. Yan, see you next ti. I think we will et again soon."
Her words carried an implication.
Rong Yan, not knowing who she was, didn’t think there was anything wrong with the statent, assuming it was just common courtesy.
But to Li Shengxiao, Chenyue’s words seed profound, and he couldn’t imdiately discern whether there was any malice in her words.
"Alright, see you next ti. Next ti, I’ll treat you to tea."
Chenyue waved her hand, walking away without turning back, still waving to them while facing the other direction.
Rong Yan watched her figure crossing the street and gradually disappearing at the corner, just about to look away when suddenly a strong hand wrapped around her waist, pulling her forcefully into an embrace.
"Do you know that person just now?" His voice was low and husky, not revealing anything wrong.
If he was not mistaken, that woman was probably the formidable and reportedly aloof and difficult Mada Chu from the Chu Family.
