Chapter 143: Chapter 142 My Patience Has Its Limits (8)

Otherwise, if she keeps going every day on edge like this, she’s surely going to break down.

The meeting time was set for eight in the evening. Qin Qian said she would come to pick her up, but since Dong Xin Yan lived in Gu Ningyi’s villa, she wasn’t sure how to explain the situation between her and Gu Ningyi to Qin Qian yet, so she politely declined, saying she would go by herself. Dong Xin Yan put on a bit of makeup to cover her poor complexion and then grabbed her bag and headed out.

There was some traffic on the road, and by the time Dong Xin Yan arrived at Black Pool, it was already a little past eight. She had taken a taxi, and just as it was about to stop at the entrance, a sports car suddenly darted out from the side, startling the driver into slamming on the brakes. Due to inertia, Dong Xin Yan’s whole body lurched forward, and her head directly hit the glass partition in front, causing her to frown from the pain.

The driver in front was already cursing, "How do you drive? Just because it’s an expensive car doesn’t mean you can drive like this!"

Dong Xin Yan held her forehead and looked up, gazing through the glass at the sports car that had suddenly appeared, and instantly understood.

No wonder they drive like that, it’s characteristic of such an arrogant person.

Dong Xin Yan averted her gaze, rubbed her forehead, then took out her wallet, paid the fare, and opened the door to get out of the car.

On the other side, the owner of the sports car also got out, dressed in a Chanel outfit, with delicate makeup and an arrogant demeanor. Who else could it be but Yuan Shi?

Dong Xin Yan remembered that Qin Qian hadn’t informed her that Yuan Shi would be here tonight, so she didn’t know whether Yuan Shi had received the information or just happened to come by.

But regardless of which it was, she didn’t want to talk with Yuan Shi.

After all, the last meeting was so... unpleasant.

Dong Xin Yan slightly lowered her eyes, pretending not to see her, and quickened her pace, swiftly passing her and heading into Black Pool.

Because Qin Qian had given a heads-up beforehand, a tall and handsome waiter directly led her to the reserved private room.

Qin Qian was already there, and upon seeing Dong Xin Yan, she immediately rushed over to give her a big hug. Dong Xin Yan staggered two steps back from the impact before she barely steadied herself.

"Darling, I missed you to death!"

Qin Qian released Dong Xin Yan, cupping Dong Xin Yan’s cheeks with her hands, looking pained, "Xinxin, how did you become so skinny?"

It had only been two months since they last met, and Dong Xin Yan had already lost so much weight. When Qin Qian hugged her earlier, it felt like she was all bones.

Dong Xin Yan didn’t want Qin Qian to worry, so she brushed it off lightly, "You know how it is; us entertainers have to maintain our figures to look good on camera."

"But you have to do it appropriately! Look at that person, so skinny it’s scary. Don’t be like her."

Dong Xin Yan smiled but didn’t continue the topic and instead scanned the room. Quite a few classmates were already there, but Gu Ningyi hadn’t arrived yet.

Dong Xin Yan’s eyes flickered, unable to hide a trace of disappointment.

If Gu Ningyi didn’t come today, she really didn’t know how else she could see him.

Seeing her expression, Qin Qian knew what she was worried about and quickly reassured her, "Don’t worry, I’ve hinted to Yuan Shen to make sure he brings Gu Ningyi, he might just be a little late."

"I hope so."

However, in the blink of an eye, an hour had already passed. All the classmates had basically arrived, even Yuan Shen called saying he was on his way, but there was still no news of Gu Ningyi.
