"I’m in too!" Xu Xia immediately joined in with her cup, as Leng Zirui’s remark hit right where she wanted.
"Thank you!"
Luo Xiaoqian smiled as she extended her juice cup and gently clinked glasses with the two of them. Then, Leng Zimo also joined in, bumping his glass against theirs.
The two exchanged a knowing glance, reached out their glasses to gently clink, before bringing them to their lips for a big sip.
One juice cup, one wine glass—one filled with orange juice, the other with rich red wine. They seem mismatched, but the people holding them share the same smile and eyes filled with affection.
Sipping her drink, Xu Xia observed them, rolling her eyes immediately. "I despise you guys showing off your love!"
"Exactly, why flirt in front of us single folks?" Leng Zirui chimed in.
Hearing his voice, Xu Xia immediately retorted angrily, "What do you mean ’us’? Don’t lump me in with you."
Leng Zirui licked his lips with his tongue. "Forgot, you have enough admirers to fill an entire battalion!"
Xu Xia lowered her wine glass. "Yeah, what’s up with that? You jealous or envious or what?!"
"I find you even more narcissistic than me." Leng Zirui lazily leaned back against the rattan chair, resting his long legs on an empty chair nearby. "All the men in the world are chasing you, what does it have to do with me?"
Watching him casually swirling his wine glass as he savored it, Xu Xia felt a pang in her heart again.
Annoyed, she leaned back and downed her glass of wine in one gulp.
Drinking too quickly, she accidentally choked and began coughing violently.
"Xu Xia, slow down!" Luo Xiaoqian rushed over and patted her back. "How about some juice?"
