Chapter 63: Chapter 063: Catching up

Author: DawnMachine Translation

The Imperial Kitchen was similar to the Green Leaf, both of which were among the best restaurants in Binhai City.

The chef was specially hired from the capital, and he was very particular about the ingredients, craftsmanship, and service. ​​

Jin Di booked a private room for two on the way. She had already eaten with Mo Shaoting, so she wasn't hungry now. However, she still didn't have the courage to say no to Jin Di, so she obediently followed him in.

As soon as Jin Di entered the courtyard, he went to the pond in the backyard to look at the seafood that had just arrived today. He seemed to have a special liking for seafood.

She followed the waiter from the corridor to the private room. Just as she passed by another room, the door was opened from the inside...

A woman in a yellow dress smiled and shouted into the room, "Hey, who says I'm running away? What's wrong with me taking a breather?"

Zuo Aiai recognized her at first glance. It was Lin Lingyue, Zuo Yunyun's female friend since high school.

Because she was close to Zuo Yunyun, she had hated Zuo Aiai for years.

Zuo Aiai didn't want to interact with her, so she tried to pretend not to see her. But as she was sidestepping her and trying to pass without being noticed, Lin Lingyue suddenly reached out to grab her wrist and smiled.

"Oh, who is this? Why is she so arrogant? And why didn't she greet her old classmate?"

Conceding that she'd have to have a conversation with her, Zuo Aiai turned around and gave Lin Lingyue a faint smile. "Oh hi, I didn't see you. Long time no see."

Zuo Aiai was famous for being arrogant and domineering in high school. Lin Lingyue had had a crush on one or two boys in high school. But Zuo Aiai was so flamboyant and hot then, her looks and figure were so good, that the boys Lin Lingyue liked all liked Zuo Aiai.

Zuo Aiai was the school beauty and all of the boys' dream girl.

Pretty girls were like that. They could be friends with the second and third most beautiful girls, but in truth, they would always be alone.

At that time, although Zuo Aiai didn't have any best friends, she had many male best friends by her side. She had a good life.

The few boys that Lin Lingyue liked were all smitten by Zuo Aiai.

Naturally, Lin Lingyue and the others were so jealous that they gritted their teeth whenever she walked by, but they couldn't do anything about it.

"Oh, not to worry, it's just that you're so busy and haven't seen me for a long time," Lin Lingyue said, "I've been reading about you in the news every day, though! The famous Zuo Aiai, the number one socialite in Binhai City. You've been very popular recently. You're always in the top three on the Baidu hot search list."

It was obviously sarcastic, but there wasn't the slightest bit of annoyance on her face. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and her tone was indifferent.

"Is that so? Well, thank you for caring about me enough to read about me every day," Zuo Aiai said with equal coolness.

Lin Lingyue was annoyed. If it had been in the past when the Zuo family was still powerful and influential, she would have tolerated Zuo Aiai's arrogance.

But considering Zuo Aiai's current reputation, how dare she act like this in front of her?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Suddenly, an idea flashed across Lin Lingyue's mind, and the expression on her face changed. She walked up to her and held her hand affectionately, as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for a long time. Then, she pushed open the door to the private room.

"Isn't that right? You were always the most popular person at our high school. What a funny coincidence that we've invited a few old friends out for dinner today, and some of them are our former classmates. Speaking of which, you know them too...come, let's have a drink and catch up before you leave."

Zuo Aiai frowned and was about to find an excuse to decline, but Lin Lingyue had already pushed her in. She frowned and looked up, just in time to see Chen Ziyi, who was sitting in the innermost seat, chatting cheerfully with the person next to him, and Zuo Yunyun, who was smiling sweetly beside him.
