Chapter 707

Zhao Meng was furious, while Qiao Anhao, the actual person involved, was inevitably devastated, so Zhao Meng could only hold her anger in and comfort her friend .

"Qiao Qiao . . . a few days back on the set of "Love at First Sight", Lin Shiyi must've felt terrible after Mr . Lu treated her like that . Can't you jump two steps back and let her say what she wants to make herself feel better?"

Sometimes, Zhao Meng liked to stray from the topic . The first half of what she said started to make Qiao Anhao feel a bit better, so she nodded in agreement, and picked up her chopsticks, ready to start eating a table full of food .

In the end, she had eaten just two pieces of fish when Zhao Meng digressed . "Qiao Qiao, don't even talk about . . . Lin Shiyi's boyfriend looks pretty rich to propose to her with a ring the size of a dove egg . . . "

Qiao Anhao, who didn't have a wedding ring, felt completely down in the dumps .

Don't even mention a diamond the size of a dove egg . Qiao Anhao didn't even have a little hundred RMB silver ring . . .

She glanced over at her bare two fingers, hung her head, and put her chopsticks down .

That was when Zhao Meng realized that she said something wrong . She quickly shut her mouth, and carefully sneaked a few glances over at her friend . Just as she was about to say something else to cheer her up, Qiao Anhao's phone suddenly rang .

"Who's calling?" asked Zhao Meng . Seeing as Qiao Anhao didn't even react, she lifted her chin in curiosity, and saw the words "Lu Jinnian" come up on the screen, so she reminded Qiao Anhao in a surprised voice, "Mr . Lu is calling . Didn't you wait all afternoon?"

Qiao Anhao rested both hands on her chin, turning her head over in no hurry . She glanced at it, then reached her hand out to pick up the phone .

Zhao Meng thought that Qiao Anhao would take the call and return to how she was before; chatting, picking up her chopsticks to grab and drool over the sea urchin .

But before Zhao Meng could put the sea urchin into her mouth, she saw Qiao Anhao's fingers casually swipe the screen . She didn't pick up the call, but hung up!

Zhao Meng's hand shook, and the sea urchin in her chopsticks fell to the table . As she called the waiter over for a new cup of tea, she asked, "Qiao Qiao, why didn't you pick up?"

Before the last word fell, Lu Jinnian called again . This time, it rang for about five rings before Qiao Anhao hung up on him again .

"You've obviously been waiting for his call . Now that you've waited so long for it, you clearly want to pick it up, and yet you're acting all proud . . . what do you call this?"

In the midst of Zhao Meng's speech, Qiao Anhao hung up another one of Lu Jinnian's calls .

"I remember . . . it's that . . . your body is more honest than your words . . . "

With Zhao Meng's words, Lu Jinnian called again . Before the phone could ring, Qiao Anhao ruthlessly cut it off .

–

On the plane home, Lu Jinnian who hadn’t rested well in a long long time was so excited that he didn't sleep for the entire fifteen hour journey . Instead, he sat there in a daze .

When he reached Beijing International Airport, he got his suitcase and immediately walked over to the car park without any stops, and drove his car back to Mian Xiu Garden .

It was just eleven in the afternoon at the time . According to his understanding of Qiao Anhao, she probably would have just woken up or might even still be asleep, as she slept late last night .
