After rejecting my celebrity husband novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400: Chapter 402 Enthusiastic Xu Xia [6]

Xu Pei’s gaze fell on Luo Xiaoqian, with a slight darkening in her eyes, but her expression remained unchanged; she immediately came over with a smile, "Come on, Xiaoqian, let me introduce you, all these people are childhood friends (Note: Beijing dialect, refers to friends who have been playing together since childhood) of me and Zimo."

"Xiaoqian!" Huangfu Ruo put down the iPad in her hands and came up to greet her with a face full of joy, grabbing Luo Xiaoqian’s arm and kissing her on the cheek, "It’s great, Zimo finally decided to let you out, ho, ho, ho, Brother Yizhou, Sister Tongya... hurry, hurry, you have to honour the bet..."

Shen Yizhou and Tong Ya exchanged glances before each took out their wallets, extracted all the cash inside, and handed it over to Huangfu Ruo’s outstretched palm.

"Thanks a lot!" Huangfu Ruo proudly flaunted the thick stack of cash in her hand to Qin Lan, who, seeing the happy smile on her face, also raised a smile.

Of course, they weren’t short on money; Qin Lan’s acting fees had long been counted in eight figures, and it was best when his woman was happy.

The calling Huangfu Ao had also finished his phone call by now and walked over, seeing his sister’s excited face and curiously asked, "Xiao Ruo, what are you playing now?"

"On the way here, I bet with Brother Yizhou and Sister Tongya that if Brother Zimo brought Xiaoqian to the event today, I’d win!" Huangfu Ruo waved the banknotes in her hand, "Now, I’ve won!"

"Mr. Huangfu, it’s been a long time." Luo Xiaoqian greeted Huangfu Ao with a polite smile.

The last time, during the incident in Zhengding, Hebei, if it had not been for Huangfu Ao’s timely rescue, she might have been ruined, so Luo Xiaoqian naturally felt a great deal of gratitude toward Huangfu Ao.

"You two... know each other?!" Xu Pei was clearly surprised.

"Xu Xia, Xu Pei?!" Huangfu Ruo immediately laughed from the side, "Your names sound like you could be sisters."

"Really, I hadn’t noticed until you mentioned it." Xu Xia also laughed, "It seems like Xiaoqian has a connection with people surnamed Xu, and since Xu isn’t a common surname, maybe we’re actually related. Sister Xu Pei, we should definitely have a good drink later."

"Sure!" Xu Pei replied politely.

"Everybody please take a seat." Zimo said with a smile, and everyone sat back down at the table.

Luo Xiaoqian naturally took the empty seat to the left of Leng Zimo, and Xu Pei moved to the position on Zimo’s right. However, Xu Xia had already taken the seat next to Luo Xiaoqian and was patting the chair beside her, inviting warmly.
