Chapter 100 The Flattery is Loud and Clear
Fei’er was followed by Hu Jiaojiao, who upon seeing Gu Qili, beamed with a smile as though meeting an old friend, and waved saying: "Qiqi, you’re also eating here? What a coincidence."
Gu Qili mimicked Mu Shuoqian’s demeanor, looking down coldly, and silently continued eating. After spending a lot of time with him, she had gradually picked up some of his bad temperaments—she could put on a cold face in an instant with no tolerance for nonsense.
With someone like Hu Jiaojiao, she would never show a friendly face.
Hu Jiaojiao wanted to sit next to Gu Qili, who immediately placed her backpack on the chair beside her, clearly indicating she did not want Jiaojiao to sit there. Hu Jiaojiao stood awkwardly with her food tray, undecided on whether to sit or stand.
Fei’er had already boldly taken a seat next to Mu Shuoqian, putting her tray on the dining table. She glanced and noticed that the lunchbox Mu Shuoqian was using to eat from was pink with two bears printed on it.
Gu Qili’s lunchbox was also pink, one big and one small, looking like a mother-child lunchbox set.
Fei’er was a bit horrified, never expecting Mu Shuoqian to use such a feminine cartoon lunchbox for eating, which felt oddly mismatched.
Fei’er could more or less guess what their relationship was, but she believed Hu Jiaojiao’s words that he was just Gu Qili’s new ’client’, favored for now, and naturally did not take Gu Qili seriously, virtually ignoring her.
"Young Master Qian, I am Fei’er, my father is Deng Liren. He often mentions you in front of me. I have long admired you, just distressed by not having the opportunity to meet you in person. I never thought I’d see you here in a small cafeteria. This is truly an honor too great for my humble self."
Gu Qili almost spat out her food, such an over-the-top flattery, doesn’t it hurt her hand?
She sneaked a glance at Mu Shuoqian’s reaction; he had previously inquired about her, and now she was right before his eyes.
