Chapter 415 - 429: So Feng Yi is actually this little troublemaker’s weakness.
When Han Xi opened the door, Manman couldn’t stop muttering to him, "Were you two doing something naughty upstairs? I’m freezing.""No way, don’t talk nonsense." Han Xi nudged her friend’s lower back with his arm, signaling with his eyes for her to stop saying such things.
Manman shrugged indifferently, "Pinching me won’t change anything."
Feng Yi was present as well, and Han Xi now felt like wringing this little devil’s neck, wondering how she ended up with such a "disastrous" best friend.
Manman asked while changing shoes at the entrance, "Where’s Sister Zhang? I’ve been pressing the doorbell for ages, why didn’t she come to open the door?"
"We’re going to a banquet tonight, so Jing Han let Sister Zhang go home early."
Manman took off her down jacket, revealing a dark-colored gown underneath; no wonder she was complaining about the cold.
"You guys sit in the living room for now. I’m going upstairs to change clothes." Having said that, Han Xi headed upstairs.
In the bathroom, she washed her face, changed into the outfit, then sat down at the dressing table and put on a light makeup.
After finishing her makeup, Han Xi stood up and went to the wardrobe, pulling out a black suit and white shirt to hand to Lu Jinghan, "Go change your clothes, Manman and the rest are waiting downstairs."
Lu Jinghan had been reading an email, but upon hearing Han Xi talk to him, he put away his phone, took the clothes she handed him, placed them on the bed, unfastened the collar button of his shirt single-handedly, and changed into the outfit.
Han Xi stood at the dressing table, tidied her hair before turning around to look at Lu Jinghan, "Let’s go." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on N0velFire.ɴet
The two of them went downstairs hand in hand, and Lu Jinghan, looking at Manman and Feng Yi sitting on the sofa, spoke before turning to drape the white down jacket over Han Xi’s shoulders.
Manman cast a mischievous gaze over the two in front of her, and began teasing without thinking, "Lu Jinghan, were you just up to no good with Xiao Xi? Her constitution isn’t as strong as yours, you know."
Han Xi really felt like giving this girl a good smack; how does she always manage to concoct such wild fantasies about things that never happened? She’s really something else.
Lu Jinghan helped Han Xi put on the down jacket, raised his hand to tuck her long hair out of the jacket, "Feng Yi, are you really not going to manage your girlfriend?"
"Yeah, she needs a good talking to when we get home, discussing these things with other men."
Manman hooked onto Feng Yi’s arm, instantly surrendering, "I was wrong, don’t get upset."
Han Xi watched Manman’s swift submission and struggled to suppress the urge to laugh, realizing that Feng Yi is indeed her Achilles’ heel.
They all walked out of the villa together, each getting into their respective cars.
About twenty minutes later, the car pulled up in front of a hotel that looked upscale, and Lu Jinghan stepped out, walked around the car, opened the passenger door, and led Han Xi inside by the hand.
The group was guided by the lobby manager up the elevator, and just as the doors were about to close, Fu Bin quickly joined them inside.
"Why are you alone? Where’s Chu Ci?" Manman asked casually.
"She’s pregnant, so it’s best not to attend such events."
Exiting the elevator, the banquet hall was already filled with many upper-class individuals. Upon seeing Lu Jinghan arrive, everyone eagerly crowded around to greet him.
Lu Jinghan nodded to them slightly, turning to remove Han Xi’s down jacket and handing it to a server, "You and Manman go sit over there for a bit, I’ll come find you soon."
