Chapter 168 - 165: Long Time No See
Zhou Rou found an excuse today to thank Yin Xian and invited him out for dinner.
Yin Xian had been entangled by Ye Duowei lately, and his mood was entirely foul no matter where he went. Later, he received Zhou Rou’s phone call. Her delicate and vulnerable image suddenly flashed in his mind, and thinking about how she’d gotten beaten and lost her job because of Weiwei, he felt guilty and agreed to her invitation.
Zhou Rou carefully selected an elegant Western restaurant for their meeting. When Yin Xian arrived, the two exchanged smiles, and the atmosphere felt somewhat awkward.
Their encounter that night had stretched until deep into the night, and although they’d met in North City once before, he hadn’t gotten a clear look at her!
Now, under the natural daylight, Zhou Rou had deliberately put on light makeup and perfume, her entire being radiating a pure and gentle charm.
Yin Xian’s eyes briefly flickered with astonishment, but upon closer inspection, he realized her style was entirely different from Weiwei’s.
How could he describe it? A fragile little woman.
Zhou Rou, being more bold, was the first to lift her wine glass and said, "Brother Yin, thank you for that night! Let me offer you a toast!"
"Sigh, if it weren’t because of me, you wouldn’t... Anyway, the one who should apologize is me!" Yin Xian finished the red wine already poured before him in one gulp, adjusted his emotions, and asked with concern, "How have you been?"
He noticed that the corner of Zhou Rou’s mouth on the right side was still a bit swollen, likely from Weiwei’s heavy-handed slap during the incident.
