Chapter 266: Most likely
Everyone turned to see Lin Jian walking in with his nose in the air. Holding his left arm was a beautiful, tall young woman. She was wearing a short, black dress and a pair of 5-inch high heels as red as her hair. She looked elegant and charming with an infectious smile.
Lin Jian’s look was a huge contrast to hers. He was wearing what looked like a random outfit he had grabbed from his laundry basket. His jeans was in a slightly palatable condition but his t-shirt was too disheveled. His hair was messy too, making one wonder whether he had not had time to dress up. His friends knew him well enough to guess that he must have been up to something and didn’t even bother to brush his hair before coming here.
"Ruby?" Lanni did not pay attention to Lin Jian’s look but was surprised when she saw the girl next to him. So the guy wasn’t that useless after all. He had managed to charm Ruby. Although that was the case, she was uncomfortable.
After all, she was the one who had given Ruby’s contact details to Lin Jian. If this womanizer broke Ruby’s heart, she would feel responsible.
Ruby glared daggers at Lanni as soon as she saw her.
"Look who is here! I’ve heard of people leaving parties at midnight and others joining at midnight. Then there’s you—arriving when the party is already over and with a beauty in tow." Jiang Xingyu ridiculed Lin Jian for being late.
Jiang Xingren, Madam Jiang and Li Yuming had already left. In fact, a moment before they appeared, he was also planning to leave.
Lin Jian held Ruby’s waist while ignoring her ferocious glare and laughed as though he had not arrived late. "Ha-ha... I know. Actually, it’s not my fault. The beauty was unwilling to come so she took a little long to dress up." Seeing that no one was willing to listen to his nonsense and was giving him meaningful looks, he raised the bag be was carrying in his right hand. "Hey! I’ve got some booze. We can drink it together. Of course, we will steal some from Xiehan’s cellar when he is not looking. Let’s drink till we drop!"
At the mention of beer, Jiang Xingyu hurried and grabbed the plastic bag from Lin Jian.
