"What the f***???" Honey exclaimed, hearing the announcement from the balcony where she and Detective Sheng were hiding from the crowd to kiss.
"What is it, Honey?" Hao Ran softly asked while his lips continued to savor the woman's sweet jasmine scent on her neck.
"I think I just heard my best friend got engaged." The lawyer replied with her forehead creasing from doubt.
Hao Ran stepped back to give Honey time to explain her reaction to the announcement. He knows that Ms. Zhang and Honey are friends but the lawyer's disgruntled face shows resentment rather than happiness to her best friend's engagement.
They started their relationship quickly without knowing each other well. There was no courting. No dating. Or a group date with friends. Everything is new to him but he doesn't mind learning every piece of information about the lawyer.
He needs to be patient with her, or he can kiss his dream goodbye as chief investigator.
