After getting in the car and giving the address to the driver, Han Xi made a call to Wen Yichen, informing her that he had plans to eat out tonight.
The car quickly stopped in front of the restaurant, and when Han Xi went inside, Chu Ci and Manman were already there.
"Xiao Xi, over here." Chu Ci waved at Han Xi who had just walked in from outside.
Hearing the voice, Han Xi turned around and walked towards them: "I was busy with surgery earlier, so I ca late."
"Manman and I also just arrived a little while ago and have already ordered the dishes."
Han Xi pulled out a chair and sat down at the table, looking at Li Manman’s red and swollen eyes with a frown: "Why did you and Feng Yi break up, look what you’ve done to yourself."
Li Manman rubbed the tissue in her hand in grievance, sniffing before she spoke: "It’s because I made that comnt about his short ti."
"Just an inadvertent comnt, does Feng Yi need to take it to the point of breaking up? This is really excessive."
Han Xi lifted a hand to wipe the tears from Li Manman’s face, feeling a bit heartbroken for the girl.
"I was the one who said we should break up."
"Did you say it out of spite or do you really want to break up?" Chu Ci carefully put down his water cup and asked seriously.
"Manman, you’re here for dinner too?" A clear male voice ca from not far away.
The three looked towards the sound, and Li Manman smiled lightly to greet Tong Ze: "It’s really a coincidence to et you again."
"Tong Ze, when did you co back?"
Han Xi and Chu Ci spoke almost in unison, feeling an unexpected closeness upon eting an old classmate.
"I got back a few days ago, been busy with work and haven’t had the chance to reach out to everyone."
Tong Ze looked at Li Manman, whose eyes were red, pulled out a chair and sat beside her: "You’ve been crying?"
"Yeah, I was just watching a Korean drama at ho."
Li Manman didn’t want to talk about Feng Yi with others, so she made up a lie.
Of course, Tong Ze wasn’t fooled and knew the girl was lying, but since she didn’t want to share, he didn’t push: "Mind if I join you?"
"I don’t mind, let’s treat it as a little reunion of old classmates." Li Manman smiled lightly and replied to Tong Ze.
Tong Ze picked up the chopsticks, grabbed a piece of food, and looked up at Chu Ci: "I didn’t expect our star Chu Ci would be pregnant, how many months along?"
"About three months. Rember to prepare a big red envelope when I deliver."
"Of course."
As he finished speaking, Tong Ze naturally picked up a shrimp and placed it on the plate of Li Manman beside him: "I rember you used to love eating phoenix tail shrimp."
Han Xi and Chu Ci knew about Tong Ze’s crush on Manman back in school, and when Tong Ze planned to confess, he specifically asked them to be his consultants.
However, since the confession didn’t succeed, Tong Ze went abroad, and Han Xi and Chu Ci never ntioned it to Manman.
Han Xi spoke up with a hinting tone looking at Tong Ze: "You still don’t have a girlfriend?"
"Not yet, maybe because I haven’t forgotten that girl from before."
"But maybe she’s already with soone else?"
Tong Ze’s gaze unconsciously fell on Li Manman: "I want to give it a try, I don’t want any more regrets this ti."
Li Manman’s mind was occupied solely with the breakup with Feng Yi, she wasn’t paying attention to their conversation or noticing Tong Ze’s gaze at her.
Chu Ci put down his chopsticks, resting his chin on one hand and looking at Tong Ze: "Our Manman already has a boyfriend, you should stop pining."
