Snow Color

Chapter 396 Ode to Joy 40

"Your friends are really interesting!" Luo Yining said with a slight smile on her lips, her smile as bright as a blooming spring flower.

"Alas, they have no other advantages except that they keep talking all day long." Ji Weizhi shook his head helplessly and replied.

Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, night had already fallen. Ji Weizhi had already made preparations and arranged everything in an orderly manner. They could just go straight to the box.

However, at this moment, Luo Yining's eyes inadvertently swept through the crowd and unexpectedly found Qu Xiaoxiao's petite and agile figure. Sure enough, as expected, she still appeared here. Moreover, there was a man standing next to her. Luo Yining had met him before. The man was carrying a musical instrument. I think it should be Yao Bin, the childhood friend that Qu Xiaoxiao often mentioned.

"Oh, Ningning, what a coincidence! I meet you here. Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming here to play? Now I'm the only one left on the 22nd floor!" As soon as Qu Xiaoxiao saw Luo Yining, she ran over like a happy little bird, hugged Luo Yining's arm affectionately, and complained coquettishly.

"Haha, I was also pulled here temporarily by someone unknown. I only saw them after I arrived here. I really didn't expect it beforehand. But luckily you are here too." Luo Yining patted Qu Xiaoxiao's hand and explained with a smile.

"Oh, it looks like you are here to date your boyfriend, right? Great, you even brought your boyfriend. Poor single dog like me, I can only watch you show your affection!" Qu Xiaoxiao blinked her big, mischievous eyes and said jokingly.

"Didn't you bring your good friends with you? Well, I really can't get together with them. Not only those unknown friends came this time, but even my brother came here. I'm really overwhelmed, so I have no chance to go over there. Please tell them for me, and make sure they know. By the way, as for Fan Shengmei, you must hold back and don't say too much about her. Otherwise, if you accidentally damage her image, those people will never forgive you easily." Luo Yining warned seriously.

"Oh, Ningning, just rest assured! Andy has already explained the situation to me clearly, and I know what's going on. As long as Sister Fan doesn't bother me, I won't bother with her. I'm not the kind of person who likes to find trouble for no reason." Qu Xiaoxiao patted her chest and promised.

"Forget it, forget it. I'll only believe you this time. Okay, I'll leave first. If there's nothing important, you can come over here and play. Let me tell you, there are a lot of super handsome guys here! I guarantee you won't be able to take your eyes off them once you take one look." Luo Yining smiled and winked at Qu Xiaoxiao, then turned and left.

"Wow, a handsome guy? Sounds very tempting... but no, no, I have to remain a virgin for my Doctor Zhao! Well... but it shouldn't be a problem to go over and take a look, hehe. Ningning, wait for me, I'll get ready and come to you right away!" Qu Xiaoxiao talked to herself excitedly, while hurriedly fixing her makeup, preparing to go over there, and then go to the place Luo Yining said.

Luo Yining smiled and waved to Qu Xiaoxiao, then turned and left. Qu Xiaoxiao excitedly shouted to Yao Bin beside her: "Hurry up, Yao Bin! I'm going to take you to see the real big scene later!"

Qu Xiaoxiao was in an especially good mood at the moment, as if the whole world was revolving around her. Of course, if Fan Shengmei could be more tactful and stop talking too much, then she would not bother to argue too much with her.

On the other side, Luo Yining hurried back to the private room. As soon as she entered the room, she was greeted by an alluring aroma. It turned out that the dishes tonight were all carefully prepared by a highly skilled chef specially invited by the manager of this restaurant. At this moment, the food had just been put on the table, steaming hot, delicious, and mouth-watering. Everyone sat down one after another, and when they were about to enjoy this sumptuous dinner, Qu Xiaoxiao's cheerful voice suddenly came from the door.

"Ningning, here I am!" Qu Xiaoxiao walked into the box quickly with a smile on her face, as if a light butterfly came in.

Although what happened just now was somewhat unpleasant, the clever Qu Xiaoxiao had already fought back skillfully and vented all her dissatisfaction. Now that she has regained her good mood, she naturally won't take those little episodes to heart anymore.

What's more, in her opinion, the reason why Fan Shengmei was so sarcastic was simply because deep down in her heart she was extremely eager to cling to the powerful but was unwilling to admit it.

"Hello! My name is Yao Bin, and I'm Xiao Xiao's childhood friend." Yao Bin followed Qu Xiao Xiao with a smile on his face, introducing himself to everyone enthusiastically. He was tall and dressed in casual clothes, looking sunny and full of energy.

At this time, Luo Yining turned around and said to Yao Bin with a smile: "Haha, of course I know you! Xiaoxiao often talks about you, saying that you are her super good friend and childhood friend. Oh, it so happens that the dishes are on the table now, come on, come and sit down and taste it together." As she said that, she led Yao Bin and Qu Xiaoxiao to the table and arranged for them to sit down.

After everyone was seated, Luo Yining cleared her throat and began to formally introduce the others at the table: "My dear friends, let me introduce you to this beautiful, lovely, and quirky girl. She is my neighbor and also my good friend, Qu Xiaoxiao. The one next to her is Xiaoxiao's childhood best friend Yao Bin. They just happened to pass by here today, so let's take this opportunity to get together and get to know each other."

After hearing Luo Yining's introduction, Qu Xiaoxiao stood up quickly, waved her hand coquettishly, and said sweetly: "Hi, everyone! I am Qu Xiaoxiao." When she looked carefully, she found that the men in front of her were just as she expected. They were all handsome and imposing, and they also exuded a unique masculine aura. They were definitely handsome men. Alas, it was a pity that such excellent boys were not meant for her, but it was also very good to feast her eyes. Thinking of this, Qu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly and sat back in her seat lightly.

Then, Qu Xiaoxiao and Yao Bin fully demonstrated their excellent interpersonal skills. Before long, they had become friends with Li Lin and others, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Luo Yining saw the scene from a distance, she shook her head gently, her lips slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. As expected, someone like Qu Xiaoxiao, who is quirky, lively and cheerful, is really suitable for such a lively occasion!

At that time, Qu Xiaoxiao walked towards this side with light steps. Luo Yining took a closer look and soon noticed that Qu Xiaoxiao's expression was a little different from usual. Although she still had a smile on her face, there seemed to be an indescribable strangeness hidden in her eyes. With her understanding of Qu Xiaoxiao, Luo Yining thought to herself: It seems that this time Qu Xiaoxiao did not hide certain things as those people wished.

However, Luo Yining did not say much. After all, the truth of this matter would come out sooner or later. With Qu Xiaoxiao's straightforward personality, since she promised to keep the secret, she would surely try her best to do it. But for some reason, she failed to keep her mouth shut this time. After thinking about it, Luo Yining felt that it was very likely that Fan Shengmei accidentally provoked Qu Xiaoxiao, so that Qu Xiaoxiao ignored her previous promise and directly told the truth.

Actually, it's not all Qu Xiaoxiao's fault. After all, everyone has their own temper and bottom line. As for Fan Shengmei, although she is quite smooth in dealing with people, her strong self-esteem makes her tend to blame others when she lacks a sense of security. Luo Yining is naturally aware of this. And in terms of their relationship, Luo Yining and Fan Shengmei are not as close as Qu Xiaoxiao, so it is inevitable that she will be biased when dealing with such issues.

"Unknown, this fish is delicious and tender. It is a good dish." Luo Yining said with satisfaction as he savored the fish in his mouth.

"Yes, that's true. The fish here are all carefully bred in the huge reservoir outside. The water quality there is excellent, and this kind of high-quality freshwater fish is quite rare in the market." Ji Weizhi responded with a smile.

"Since you like it so much, we can come here to taste it again when we are free." Ji Weizhi looked at Luo Yining with tenderness and suggested softly.

"Okay." Luo Yining nodded slightly to show her agreement.

At this moment, Qu Xiaoxiao, who was not far away, had a full view of all this. If it was someone else interacting so intimately, with her lively and playful personality, she would definitely come forward and tease him without hesitation. However, facing Ji Weizhi, she did not dare to act rashly. So, she could only stand there and quietly watch this warm and beautiful scene in front of her, her heart full of joy.

In Qu Xiaoxiao's opinion, Ji Weizhi is definitely the most precious person in the entire 22nd floor. More importantly, he treats Luo Yining with great care and consideration, and the relationship between the two is pure and sincere, without those complicated and tangled trivial matters in between.

However, when it comes to the development of her relationship with Dr. Zhao, Qu Xiaoxiao knows it very well. If she hadn't been so persistent, there would have been no subsequent story. But even so, it turned out to be a miracle! But she had to admit that their relationship was still in a relatively fragile stage. Qu Xiaoxiao understood this very well.

As for the other two couples, it was a completely different story. Let's talk about Andy and Wei Wei first. Qu Xiaoxiao watched from the sidelines and saw clearly: Although Andy has gradually changed recently, overall, he has always been relatively cold towards this relationship. As for Wei Wei, it is undeniable that he is indeed quite smart, but it's a pity that he always likes to test others. Although this behavior itself is not a big mistake, it is obviously not a good thing for Andy who lacks a sense of security. So, in Qu Xiaoxiao's view, love should be a happy and smiling thing, but Andy often has a blank expression on his face, and even if he occasionally smiles, it doesn't seem to be from the heart. Therefore, it is not easy to make a conclusion about the future of the relationship between these two people, and it can only be classified as "pending" for the time being.

Finally, let's talk about Fan Shengmei and Wang Baichuan. Hey, Qu Xiaoxiao is not optimistic about them at all! Look at these two, one is vain and always wants to climb up the social ladder; the other is just trying to save face and is struggling. This kind of secretive and mutual concealment is simply deceiving oneself! If the situation continues, the future of these two people is probably destined to be full of ups and downs and worrying!

However, Qu Xiaoxiao doesn't care about anyone other than Andy and Luo Yining, as the relationship between them has not reached that point yet.

Time passed quickly amid the laughter and joy of the group.

It just so happened that Ji Weizhi had already arranged a room for the night, so Qu Xiaoxiao and Yao Bin didn't have to worry, as there would naturally be a place for them here.

Luo Yining and Ji Weizhi appeared on the balcony at night, looking at the bright moon in the sky, quietly enjoying this moment.

"Unknown. Do you think my brother will succeed? He hasn't even chased a girl himself." Luo Yining asked curiously.

"When the heart is moved, it will happen naturally. Besides, isn't the girl you are talking about also an ignorant one? Maybe sparks will fly between the two of them." Ji Weizhi said.
