After the two finished eating their desserts, they did not hurry to call a taxi home and, instead, strolled along the bustling streets to let the food get digested.
Qin Qitong hooked her arm around Pei Ge's and continued to chat away.
When Qin Qitong's topic wandered to Ji Ziming, her words became bolder until they scared Pei Ge.
"Sister Pei Ge, do you think my cousin is in a bad mood because you are in a relationship recently?"
Pei Ge's eyes rounded in shock upon hearing her conjecture. "How can that be? You lass, what is your brain thinking?!"
Qin Qitong pouted and softly muttered, "If it isn't, then it isn't. Why are you so fierce?"
Knowing that she spoke a little strongly, Pei Ge looked apologetically at Qin Qitong and softly said, "I was a little agitated earlier. Still, Qitong, think about it; why would your cousin like me? He must be feeling frustrated because of work."
