After slipping downstairs, Lin Lu let out a long sigh of relief.
She got into her little white Audi, started the car, and couldn't help but mutter, "Why didn't I have the courage to tell her directly? Ningning is clearly not the kind of person who loves gossip or making a commotion."
"Even if she knew I was dining alone with Cheng Zhu today, given her personality, she wouldn't overthink it, let alone get the wrong idea."
"Forget it, don't want to think about it anymore, I'm going to be late!" She started driving to the dining spot.
By the time she reached the fried chicken restaurant, she saw Cheng Zhu standing at the entrance of the arcade machine store, gazing blankly ahead, lost in thought.
The energetic girl, seeing him distracted, planned to sneak up and scare him.
But as soon as she quietly approached Cheng Zhu like an assassin, he suddenly turned around with a deep and loud "Hmm—" startling Lin Lu.
