Chapter 378: Chapter 378 This Woman Is Very Rich
Chen Xiaoyi knew that her brother’s greatest hobby in life was chasing beautiful women, which is why he had earned the nickname of a stud.
Behind his back, many people didn’t call him by his name but directly referred to him as “Chen the Stud.”
Even though it was a nickname for her brother, Chen Xiaoyi still felt ashamed.
She had tried to advise and scold him numerous times, but he did whatever he wanted, ignoring others’ advice and continuing to pursue women for fun. Unexpectedly, she ran into him in the café today with a beautiful, enchanting woman.
From their expressions, it seemed that they had already done that thing in the private room. One could tell just by looking at them.
Chen Xiaoyi felt deep shame for having such a brother. She had wanted to stop him and give him a good scolding.
But he had snatched the opportunity to escape, and that woman also fled swiftly. In a public setting, she had to be mindful of her own image, so she did not chase after them.
As she entered the private room, she was still fuming about having such a brother. She could hardly imagine that even grabbing a coffee would involve hiding in a private room for such activities. How desperate!
When she entered the room, she didn’t see Luo Ziling and was taken aback.
However, while she was surprised, Luo Ziling came out of the restroom, smiled at her shocked expression, and laughed awkwardly.
“Just went to the restroom,” seeing that Chen Xiaoyi’s mood didn’t seem very cheerful, Luo Ziling was a bit puzzled, thinking it was because of the phone call.
Chen Xiaoyi simply smiled and sat back down.
At that moment, the waiter brought in the meal along with Luo Ziling’s Longjing tea.
“I’m going to start eating, okay? I’m really hungry,” Chen Xiaoyi said, feeling slightly embarrassed as she picked up her chopsticks, “I really haven’t had dinner yet!”
Luo Ziling laughed, gestured for her to go ahead, and then asked with a smile, “Is it always this tough working on a show? Still haven’t had dinner this late?”
“Got used to it,” Chen Xiaoyi ate with grace and responded while eating, “Start makeup at five, trial broadcast at six, with no breaks in between. There’s no time for dinner. I just grab something after the show ends. But it’s my own choice; I insisted on hosting this program.”
Luo Ziling wasn’t familiar with the work at the radio station. In fact, before he met Chen Xiaoyi, he had never paid attention to such matters, so he couldn’t carry on the conversation and could only remind her to have regular meals and not to damage her health.
You shouldn’t overtax your body when you’re young; otherwise, you’ll regret it when you’re older.
Chen Xiaoyi couldn’t help but laugh at Luo Ziling’s advice, “Are all doctors such fusspots?”
Luo Ziling was startled for a moment and shook his head awkwardly, “I wouldn’t know that.”
He was merely giving a reminder out of his professional nature, not expecting to be teased by Chen Xiaoyi.
“By the way, your girlfriend is really pretty,” Chen Xiaoyi suddenly remembered something and looked up at Luo Ziling, “You must know your friend comes from a wealthy family, right? To have snagged such a beautiful rich girl, you must feel very proud.”
“Ouyang Huihui is not my girlfriend,” Luo Ziling firmly shook his head, “We’re just acquaintances. I know her grandfather and wanted to visit him during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so we went together to buy gifts. I never expected that incident would happen. I don’t know what the TV station was reporting, making us out to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Huh, you know Ouyang Huihui?”
“The Ouyang family’s second young mistress; lots of people know her,” Chen Xiaoyi smiled suggestively, “Give it some effort, and if you manage to pursue a girlfriend like her, you won’t have to worry about anything for the rest of your life.”
“I said she’s not my girlfriend, and I won’t pursue her,” Luo Ziling, afraid of being misunderstood by Chen Xiaoyi, explained again, “We really don’t have the kind of relationship you’re talking about. I hope you won’t mention it again in future programs, okay?”
Seeing that Luo Ziling was sincere, Chen Xiaoyi agreed, “Okay then. This time, we only interviewed you and didn’t approach Ouyang Huihui.”
“That’s good,” Luo Ziling breathed a sigh of relief.
“Do you look down on Ouyang Huihui?” Chen Xiaoyi curiously asked another question. When she asked this, she stared at Luo Ziling without blinking, “That shouldn’t be the case!”
“She has suitors,” Luo Ziling couldn’t say in front of others that he found Ouyang Huihui rather annoying, he had clashed with her many times, and it was impossible for him to like her.
Speaking ill of someone behind their back is unethical, let alone speaking ill of women.
Moreover, Chen Xiaoyi knew Ouyang Huihui.
“Okay then,” Hearing Luo Ziling say that Ouyang Huihui had suitors, Chen Xiaoyi tactfully refrained from asking further and instead brought up other topics, “If the program is aired, the leaders at your school will definitely respond. They might commend you or make a school-wide announcement in praise. You could take this opportunity to make some requests, like joining the student council or becoming an officer in some club organizations. It would be very beneficial for your student life.”
“Thank you for the reminder, I’ll keep it in mind,” Chen Xiaoyi meant well, and Luo Ziling didn’t have the heart to refuse.
“If you get these benefits, don’t forget to treat me,” Chen Xiaoyi joked.
“Treating a beautiful woman to a meal should be a joyful thing,” Luo Ziling, a little more familiar, was less restrained and followed up with a joke. After the playful banter, he added, “When the time comes, I’ll definitely treat you to a big meal.”
“That’s a promise,” Chen Xiaoyi wiped her mouth with a napkin and laughed, “I’ll hold you to that.”
Chen Xiaoyi had finished the meal she ordered and began to drink her coffee elegantly. While drinking coffee, she asked Luo Ziling many more questions.
These included Luo Ziling’s age, height, and some details about his family.
Luo Ziling thought this was part of the interview, so he also selectively told her some details, of course, he dared not reveal his identity.
After sitting for about an hour, Chen Xiaoyi looked at her wristwatch and smilingly suggested heading back, “It’s getting late, and I’m very tired these past few days. I need to go rest.”
“Alright, let’s go back,” Luo Ziling immediately stood up as well.
After settling the bill, they went down to the parking lot together.
“Would you like a ride?” Chen Xiaoyi asked Luo Ziling after reaching her car, “There’s also a fair distance to the school.”
Luo Ziling declined politely with a smile, “Never mind, I’d rather walk a bit, consider it a stroll.”
Chen Xiaoyi’s car turned out to be a Porsche Cayenne. Luo Ziling knew this car because once, when eating late-night snacks outside, Cao Jianhui had mentioned it. He just hadn’t expected that Chen Xiaoyi, such a beautiful woman, would drive such a domineering-looking car.
However, after remembering the Hummer driven by Lin Lan, he came to terms with it.
Of course, Luo Ziling was still surprised that a woman like Chen Xiaoyi could drive such an expensive luxury car costing nearly a million.
This woman must be very wealthy—that was his conclusion.
