My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 351 - 302: Dismissal_2

Chapter 351: 302: Dismissal_2
"I’m sorry to have kept you waiting." Liu Zhiyan took off her bag and sat down next to Yu Feici.
"It’s okay, let me introduce you! This is my friend, Yu Feici." Cen Jin smiled and introduced them to each other.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhiyan looked at Yu Feici, and when she saw the cold smirk on her lips and the murderous look in her eyes, she couldn’t help but jump in fright.
Yu Feici had the nickname ’female thug’ since her school days. She lacked the serene, pastoral vibe of Cen Jin, the gentle and intellectual aura of Ye Lingran, the sexy, alluring, lazy charm of Lu Shishu, and Yun Xi’s cute and quirky style. Although her face was quite delicate and pretty, her neat short hair and usual style of dress made her look like some big shot in a certain circle, very domineering, and many boys in school were afraid of her.
"Hey, hello, nice to meet you." Although Yu Feici’s appearance might make her seem hard to approach, she was actually cheerful and righteous, especially protective of her family Cen Jin and Lu Shishu. She couldn’t stand seeing anyone bully them, and she was impressively strong.
"Hello." Liu Zhiyan smiled and nodded, responding softly.
Afterwards, until all the dishes were served, Liu Zhiyan didn’t hear Cen Jin ask her any questions, just idle chatter throughout, which made her both nervous and apprehensive, her heart in her throat, unable to relax for a moment. She didn’t dare to laugh and chat as usual, even though she had already guessed what Cen Jin was going to ask. Although she was mentally prepared, she couldn’t tell if it was the presence of Jiang Baizhou or Yu Feici that made her feel immense pressure.
"Feici, try this fish, it’s really delicious." Cen Jin suggested to Yu Feici with a smile.
Yu Feici was particularly fond of eating fish, so she wouldn’t miss it. She raised an eyebrow, picked up her chopsticks to taste it, and then nodded in satisfaction: "It’s quite fresh, but... did you order rice? Two bowls of rice would make it perfect."
"I ordered it, let’s ask the waiter!" Cen Jin smiled, waved to call the waiter, and urged the rice to be brought faster. A little over two minutes after the waiter left, they came back with four bowls of rice on a tray.
"Zhi Yan, you should eat more too! Don’t be restrained. Didn’t you say last time that the spicy beef here was delicious? I ordered it especially for you." Cen Jin looked at Liu Zhiyan with a gentle smile, just as warm and gentle as usual.
"Mm, okay." With Cen Jin being so kind to her now, Liu Zhiyan felt a bit guilty, but also very upset inside.
When they had almost finished eating, Liu Zhiyan couldn’t help it anymore, put down her chopsticks, took a sip of water, mentally prepared herself again, took a deep breath, and said: "Sister Cen Jin, didn’t you message me at noon saying you had something to ask? What’s it about?"
Cen Jin paused in her eating and slowly lifted her eyes to look at Liu Zhiyan. She originally didn’t want to ruin the dining atmosphere and planned to talk after the meal, but since she brought it up, and they were almost done eating, there was no need to remain silent, so she got straight to the point.
"Zhi Yan, you’ve been at my studio for almost half a year, right? You’re a smart person, so you probably guessed why I wanted to talk to you today. If I make things too clear, it would lose its meaning, wouldn’t it?" Cen Jin thought for a moment, put down her chopsticks, took a napkin to wipe her mouth, contemplated for a bit, and then slowly spoke with a gentle tone.
When Liu Zhiyan heard this, her face turned ugly, but she still stubbornly asked: "Sister Cen Jin, I don’t quite understand what you mean?"
Hearing her say this, Cen Jin couldn’t help but laugh: "Actually, just before I called you at noon, I ran into Aunt Han next door. She reminded me that it’s been a bit unstable in Nancheng lately, and to avoid working too hard and walking home late at night isn’t safe. I also casually asked if there was a power outage in our studio building yesterday evening. Aunt Han said that a power outage around Chunxi Road is rare even once a year, how could there possibly be one!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhiyan’s heart skipped a beat. She thought she could fool everyone, but didn’t expect to be exposed in less than a day, never expecting Aunt Han’s unexpected visit yesterday would ruin her entire plan.
