In the bustling restaurant, they had abandoned their original plan in search of a private room, eventually finding themselves at a Sichuan cuisine restaurant.
Seated in the small private room, Zhu Dan pretended to focus on her phone, not daring to utter a word. After all, at that very moment that little device was wildly vibrating inside her, suppressing the joys of pleasure in front of her best friend felt incredibly exhilarating.
But what Zhu Dan didn't know was that her awkward state was crystal clear to Lin Fan and Ke Yunan. As the waiter brought in a few dishes, Ke Yunan picked up her phone and said to Zhu Dan, "I've got a video conference to join, it's too noisy here. I'll step out for a bit, I'll be back in half an hour. You guys start without me, don't wait for me."
"Mmm... then come back soon, we... will wait for you to eat!"
Zhu Dan rejoiced inwardly, yet dared not show it on her face, merely nodding her agreement.
"No worries, take your time eating!"
