8 Chapter 8: Enen, do you have a boyfriend? Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Despite her reluctance, she still came at noon. Chi Enen changed her clothes and prepared to go out with her bag in hand. Just as she reached the doorway, Wang Lin suddenly called out to her, completely hiding any trace of the badmouthing she had done in the morning, greeting her warmly, “Enen, let’s go have lunch together.” “No, I have an appointment.” “Oh, you have an appointment?” There was a meaningful tone to her voice, “Okay. Maybe next time then.” Chi Enen didn’t want to concern herself with whatever they were saying behind her back and hastened her steps to leave. As soon as she reached the intersection near the set, she saw a black Maybach parked by the roadside. She recognized it at a glance, it was Li Beijue’s car. Five years ago he had planned to buy a new car, at the time he chose a Bentley, but back then she was obsessed with military TV dramas and stubbornly insisted that he buy an SUV, so Li Beijue went along with her wish and bought this black Maybach. She hadn’t expected him to still be driving this car… Chi Enen, remembering his intimacy with Sheng Aiyi before, tossed all the unrealistic thoughts from her mind, and opened the car door. Sheng Aiyi was already inside, and when she saw her get in, she said apologetically, “Enen, I’m sorry. I had said I would wait for you outside, but Beijue insisted that I get in the car. He said you’d know which car is his, and I was cold, so I got in to wait…” “It’s fine, I’ve also had the chance to ride in Young Master Jue’s car by coincidence before.” …… The Maybach soon stopped in front of Lan Club. She didn’t know if this man had done it on purpose, but this private restaurant was the place they used to frequent most when they were dating. Her favorite dish here was the garlic scallops, and although he would complain about her lack of taste, he’d always take the initiative to order it for her. “Enen, the salt-baked shrimp here is really delicious; you must try it,” said Sheng Aiyi as she got out of the car, holding onto Li Beijue’s arm and enthusiastically making a recommendation. Then, turning her head and looking at the menu, she said, “Beijue, you like garlic scallops, right? I’ll order some for you.” A sharp pain struck Chi Enen’s heart, and she barely avoided the man’s gaze coming her way. The three of them entered the private room together. Sheng Aiyi, with the familiarity of a regular, ordered a few dishes, then raised her head and handed the menu to Chi Enen, “Enen, see if there’s anything you like. Don’t be shy; I’m treating today.” “Hmm.” Chi Enen flipped through the menu carelessly, ordered two dishes, and then handed the menu back to the waiter. After pouring water for the three of them, the waiter respectfully left, “Please wait a moment; the dishes will be served shortly.” The private room was awkwardly quiet. Chi Enen picked up her water cup and took a sip. It was then that Sheng Aiyi suddenly asked, “Enen, do you have a boyfriend?” “…” Chi Enen abruptly looked up, and without her noticing, the cold-faced man also covertly looked at her. Seeing her not responding, Sheng Aiyi smiled and said, “I’m just curious. I remember several boys from the drama crew were pursuing you. But you don’t seem that interested, so I wondered if you have a boyfriend.” Chi Enen lowered her head, avoiding the nearly scrutinizing gaze of the man, put down her water cup, “Yes, I have a boyfriend.” Without waiting for Sheng Aiyi to ask more questions, She stood up, “Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom.” “Oh, sure, go ahead.” No sooner had her footsteps faded than the cold-faced man also pulled out his chair, “I’ll be right back.” Saying this, he left the private room without looking back.
