Chapter 270: Chapter 269 Where Did You Go? (5)

Ji Xinxin was stunned for a moment, her brows slightly furrowed. "What’s going on?"

When it came to this, Ling Chuxia was also filled with gloom. She sighed softly and replied in a low voice. Ji Xinxin listened, first widening her eyes and then unable to hold back a snicker, she teased Ling Chuxia without missing a beat, "So, have you been playing the thief at night these days?"

"...!"

Ling Chuxia was already frustrated to death over this matter, and now Ji Xinxin was taking delight in her misfortune. Chuxia couldn’t help but glare at her, grinding her teeth in anger: "Ji Xinxin!"

Ji Xinxin, however, was not afraid of her and retorted unapologetically, "What’s the use of glaring at me? If you dare, go and glare at your young master."

The anger that Ling Chuxia had been holding back deflated at those words. If she could argue with Shi Che, why would she need to be stewing over it here?

"Forget it, you’re so pathetic," Ji Xinxin looked at her with disdain, then turned her gaze casually to look around the private room. Her eyes landed on Shi Che seated on the sofa, her lips curling up slightly, "Don’t worry, I’ll get Shi Che drunk tonight for you. You figure out how to sleep with him, and once he’s sound asleep, you can get up and steal. If you’re worried about unforeseen problems during the night, I’ll help you make a doctor’s appointment right away, and you can send him over first thing."

Chuxia’s eyebrows knitted together in concern. Although she hadn’t really drunk with Shi Che before, she knew that his tolerance was excellent. Ji Xinxin said she wanted to get him drunk—was that even possible?

"The young master’s tolerance for alcohol..." Chuxia hesitated in her speech, "I’m afraid you might not be able to outdrink him."

Ji Xinxin didn’t like to hear that and she chuckled confidently, holding her head high, "What are you talking about? It’s like you’re boosting someone else’s morale while undermining your own. Do you think I’ve just been loafing around in the entertainment industry these past few years?"

Making it in the entertainment industry, especially reaching her position, meant being able to drink everyone under the table.

Still somewhat worried, Chuxia found Ji Xinxin patting her shoulder, "Just trust me, I won’t let Shi Che go home tonight unless I get him drunk!"

With Ji Xinxin so determined, Chuxia didn’t know what else to say. She looked at her and whispered softly, "Thank you."

Ji Xinxin rolled her eyes at her, not bothering to respond. After all, given their relationship, saying thank you was too cliché.

Chuxia composed herself and then, as though she remembered something, her gaze suddenly returned to Ji Xinxin. She narrowed her eyes slightly, "Xinxin, you being here tonight, is it because Young Master Shen brought you?"

Ji Xinxin didn’t beat around the bush and nodded.

Chuxia’s expression immediately became grave, "Does that mean the guy you were set up with last time was Shen Qian?"

"Mhm." Xinxin lazily swirled her glass of wine, then took a sip.

Chuxia’s entire face scrunched up with worry. She had known Shen Qian since childhood and was more than familiar with his character. She looked at Ji Xinxin, thought for a moment, and then spoke up, "Xinxin... Shen Qian... he’s a decent person, but..."

She hadn’t finished her warning when Ji Xinxin casually cut her off, "But he’s a playboy? Cycles through girlfriends like changing scenes and plays with women as if it’s child’s play?"

Chuxia was taken aback by Ji Xinxin’s words, her eyes wide. She fell silent, but Ji Xinxin just smiled and shrugged, "Doesn’t matter."
