Upon hearing this, Jiang Ningyu's face darkened, "What's the matter with you? Who advised me to stay away from them yesterday?"
"Just saying it casually." Li Weiwei thought of the unfinished topic, "By the way, where did you talk about just now?"
"He will answer you."
"Oh yes, do you know how Lin Xuyue replied to me?"
"What happened?"
"React with me."
Jiang Ningyu didn't understand, "What do you mean?"
"He said, let me ask you." Li Weiwei also felt confused, "Tell me, what kind of answer is this? How long have you not contacted..."
Jiang Ningyu shook her head helplessly, "He is using this to mock me. I have introduced several people to him before, but I don't know what the outcome will be."
"Needless to say, it's definitely not good." Li Weiwei shrugged, "By the way, how do we go back?"
"If you can't get a taxi, take the subway?" Jiang Ningyu just suggested this when a voice sounded behind them——
"Do you want to send it away?" Lu Li came out holding Lin Xuyue's shoulder.
"Yes!" Li Weiwei blurted out, then remembered to see Jiang Ningyu's reaction, and slowly added, "...are we on the way?" This left the other party room to refuse.
However, Lu Li just said, "We can stop by for a bite to eat." He said hello to his colleagues across the hall, then rushed into the rain and ran to the parking lot.
"I'm really a little hungry." Li Weiwei touched her stomach and muttered.
Jiang Ningyu couldn't help but think of the drunken scene that day. Her intuition told her that spending too much time with these two "old friends" would easily lead to overturning. If you want to have a decent image, don't get involved too deeply. Before today, she had also done
The decision to "walk around them in the future"... But with Li Weiwei here, there should be nothing wrong with one more person, right?
At least, I won’t drink alcohol today! Jiang Ningyu thought to herself.
After Lu Li drove the car, Jiang Ningyu and Li Weiwei went to the back seat of their own accord. Unexpectedly, Liao Zeqing followed them up, sat next to Li Weiwei and greeted with a toothy smile, "Hello, we meet again."
Li Weiwei quickly frowned, but smiled back, "Yes."
The smile on Liao Zeqing's face deepened, and he patted the pillow of the passenger seat and asked, "Shall we go eat first?"
Lin Xuyue was looking at her phone to comment, "Well, is there anything you want to eat?"
"I can do either." Liao Zeqing looked at the people next to him, "Where are you two?"
"Me too." Li Weiwei said, secretly giving Jiang Ningyu a few points.
Sensing her little movement, Jiang Ningyu swallowed the "I'll do whatever I want" that came to her mouth, and proactively asked, "How about barbecue?"
"I can." Lu Li, who was driving the car, responded.
"I'm ok." Li Weiwei nodded.
Lin Xuyue turned slightly and showed the phone screen to the people behind her, "Choose one?"
Jiang Ningyu leaned over, swiped twice on the screen, and saw a restaurant she liked, "This clam barbecue restaurant is good. My colleagues and I have eaten there, and the clams are huge and delicious."
"Then let's go to this one." Lin Xuyue called up the navigation and put it on the phone holder over there.
There was a weird aloof atmosphere between them. Liao Zeqing touched his chin and asked with a smile, "If you were classmates in high school, you probably haven't seen each other for many years, right?"
The wipers made a ticking sound, and neither Lu Li nor Lin Xuyue responded immediately.
Not wanting to cool down the atmosphere, Jiang Ningyu had no choice but to say, "It's been a while since we've seen each other." Then she changed the subject, "Why are your other colleagues going back? Just leave it alone."
"They took a taxi." Liao Zeqing said half-jokingly, "Brother Lu is the only one driving today. There is no room for so many of us."
"I thought you were going to eat together or something."
"Although we are colleagues, we don't know each other well." Liao Zeqing spread his hands, "They are all from TMT. I am the only one who is trembling among the big guys."
It turned out that he was the one Lu Li was talking about. Jiang Ningyu glanced at Li Weiwei who was turning a deaf ear, smiled and didn't answer.
But Lu Li intervened, "They can take care of each other. But you two girls are the ones I found, so I must take care of you first."
This was a pleasant remark. It was rare to hear him say a human word. Before Jiang Ningyu could be moved, she heard him say, "Otherwise, I would still have to bear the responsibility for whatever happens. It would be too bad."
Jiang Ningyu was speechless, "...you don't have to say the second half of the sentence, thank you."
Liao Zeqing laughed loudly, "Brother Lu loves to joke." Then he turned to Li Weiwei, "By the way, what do you do?"
"Designer." Li Weiwei spoke concisely and to the point.
It was Jiang Ningyu's turn to speak, but Liao Zeqing exclaimed, "What kind of designer? Isn't it difficult? I also wanted to be a designer when I was young, the kind of architect..."
Listening to his endless chatter, Jiang Ningyu closed her mouth knowingly.
She understood that the other party was mainly asking about Li Weiwei and had nothing to do with her.
…
Although there was some unpleasantness during the script killing, Jiang Ningyu was forgetful and enjoyed the barbecue. There were five people at the table, and the grill was sizzling with the aroma of various meats. Because he had to drive, Lu Li didn't order any.
For wine, I ordered a glass of coconut juice. Li Weiwei ordered a can of beer. Liao Zeqing also ordered a can of beer.
Most of the time, Liao Zeqing was looking for a topic. Li Weiwei held her forehead and continued the previous sentence, casting a look at her for help from time to time. Jiang Ningyu would occasionally interject a few sentences and cleverly change the topic to
Somewhere else.
"By the way, are you interested in skiing?" At this time, Liao Zeqing asked them again.
Li Weiwei had a calm face, trying to stop the topic first, "It's already March, there's no place to skate."
Unexpectedly, Liao Zeqing said, "Who said it, it snows in Cocotuohai in May. If you are interested, we can go together! Oh, I am talking about you, if you are interested."
Li Weiwei fell silent, looking like she wanted to slap herself twice.
Jiang Ningyu ate the grilled skewers and pursed her lips to hold back a smile.
Liao Zeqing almost had the word "pursuit" etched on his face. Unfortunately, Li Weiwei didn't catch a cold. Seeing that she was unreliable, he turned to the other two men and asked them, "Are you interested in skiing? How about you?"
Let the three of us go together."
"I skied when I was in college, so I can't call it an interest."
Lu Li's eyes met hers as she snickered, perhaps with a tacit understanding. He suddenly raised his cup and raised it to her.
There was a narrow smile on his face. He looked as handsome and bright as ever when he smiled. Mostly, his eyes remained the same, with a bit of boyish habits. His eyes were very bright, penetrating, diffusing, and enveloping people's hearts.
Boiling wantonness.
Jiang Ningyu's thoughts paused, and some scenes that seemed like they were from another life overlapped with them, making her mood unbalanced for half a second.
An indescribable emotion mixed with sadness tightly pinched her heart. The smile on her lips dropped, but she remained calm, snatched the beer from Li Weiwei's hand, and clinked a glass with him. In a toast.
