At Chu Lingxiu's words, Shen Nian looked back toward Lu Cheng.
'And here I was wondering,' she thought. Lu Cheng seemed unusually calm today. Even when she'd been talking so much with Gu Hengzhi, Lu Cheng hadn't come over to interrupt.
'So he's just been bottling it all up, waiting until he can't stand it anymore to let it all out!'
'So when Lu Cheng suddenly suggested drinking... don't tell me he wants to get Gu Hengzhi drunk!'
...
Shen Nian truly never would have expected this outcome.
"Xiao Nian, how can you still be laughing?!"
Chu Lingxiu had been watching Shen Nian with some concern, but then she saw her friend glance toward Lu Cheng and start to laugh. 'What in the world? Isn't this supposed to be a serious matter? How can she be laughing?!'
"If I'm not laughing, am I supposed to be crying?"
"That's not what I meant! I mean, Xiao Nian, aren't you worried that Lu Cheng is getting jealous?"
"If he's jealous, let him be. It's no big deal!"
