"Your sister passed the initial review of Master Cheng's laboratory?" Xu Jishen looked at him in surprise and smiled. "Impressive!"
"Are you free tonight?" Jiang Yao asked again.
Although Xu Jishen was not stingy when he praised Jiang Xianrou, his eyes immediately revealed hesitation when Jiang Yao mentioned inviting him to attend Jiang Xianrou's friend's gathering. He did not really want to attend.
"Tonight…" Xu Jishen leaned back casually with one hand on his lap, his fingers tapping casually. His rejection was already on the tip of his tongue. "I'm afraid tonight…"
He didn't get to finish his sentence.
Jiang Yao interrupted him and looked at him shamelessly. He pleaded, "Come with me. We'll play for a while before leaving."
Xu Jishen's words were stuck in his throat. He couldn't refuse, but he was actually unwilling to go.
