Chapter 399 - 413: Wife, are you planning to look for a second spring?
A few minutes later, the phones of the three people rang almost simultaneously.Han Xi took out her phone from her coat pocket, glanced at the screen, and pressed the answer button directly.
"Wifey, are you planning to find a second love?" Lu Jinghan’s voice, tinged with jealousy, came through the phone.
Han Xi was a bit taken aback by his question: "Jinghan, what are you babbling about?"
"Look at Manman’s WeChat. Just arrived in Paris and already thinking of ditching your husband to find another man?"
Li Manman’s WeChat message had just said that they were going to let loose and find a second love in the romantic city of Paris.
Han Xi opened WeChat and glanced at it; she was truly impressed by that girl. She explained innocently and pitifully, "I didn’t, it’s Manman talking nonsense."
"Mrs. Lu is already a married woman, so don’t get all starry-eyed when you see handsome men."
"Got it. If you’re so worried, why don’t you come along yourself?"
Han Xi raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, her voice gentle and soft as water.
"Can I understand this as Mrs. Lu missing me?"
Lu Jinghan’s lips curled into a deep smile as he raised a hand to extinguish the cigarette butt in the ashtray.
Han Xi whispered into the phone, "Yeah, I already started missing you. I won’t talk to you anymore; Chu Ci and the gang are still waiting for me."
After hanging up, Li Manman was still explaining the WeChat message to Feng Yi.
Actually, Fu Bin had also called Chu Ci, but she didn’t answer.
"Manman, I wonder if your brain short-circuit; why do you post everything on WeChat?"
Han Xi couldn’t help but tease Manman as she hung up the phone.
Li Manman put her phone in her bag and self-deprecatingly said, "I might have come without a brain."
The three of them walked into a nearby restaurant, chatting and laughing, and they saw Gu Beichen inside.
Gu Beichen also noticed Chu Ci. He stood up from his chair and walked over gracefully: "Long time no see. Mind if I join you?"
"Sure."
Chu Ci nodded with a slight smile, "Are you here for tomorrow’s fashion week as well?"
"Yes, I thought you weren’t coming back."
Gu Beicheng pulled out a chair for Chu Ci, then nodded slightly to Han Xi and the others.
He had seen news about Chu Ci’s pregnancy earlier, and heard she had declined all work to focus on her pregnancy at home. He thought she wouldn’t attend this fashion week.
After ordering, Li Manman sneakily took photos of Chu Ci and Gu Beichen sitting opposite each other, then sent them to Fu Bin.
[Your rival, he used to pursue Chu Ci.]
The waiter soon served the meal, and since Han Xi and the others were already acquainted with Gu Beichen, everyone ate together without any awkwardness.
"How many months is the baby?" Gu Beichen asked considerately, helping Chu Ci with her dish, his gentle face carrying a smile.
"A bit over two months."
"For tomorrow’s fashion week, try not to wear too high heels and wear something warm."
Gu Beichen spoke naturally, as if he were carefully advising his own woman.
"Oh, our Chu Ci has a husband, so keep your concern measured, okay, Mister Charming."
Li Manman wasn’t taking Gu Beichen’s side now; she had to help Fu Bin protect Chu Ci’s honor.
Gu Beichen lifted his head and smiled subtly, "Chu Ci hasn’t registered for marriage yet, right? Maybe I still have a chance, who knows."
