206 What a Coincidence
After staying around the art gallery for a long time, Zhang Yi Hai and his friends finally left.
Tang Yin was just suggesting to their friends that they should go out and have fun with their classmates after dinner. However, it was only after speaking for a long time that he noticed that Zhang Yi Hai seemed to be a little distracted.
He poked Liu Jin in his arms and the two friends exchanged a look. The roommates were wondering just what was going on with their friend.
“Zhang Yi Hai...”
Liu Jin’s voice snapped him out of his trance.
“Are you listening to us?”
Zhang Yi Hai stared at his friends. “What did the two of you talk about?”
Tang Yin heaved a sigh. “I’m saying that we should join the others for a little fun. Just now, Luo Xiao Yan said that they are going to get together after dinner.” He looked at Zhang Yi Hai expectantly. “Do you want to go together?”
Zhang Yi Hai’s mind was somewhere else.
.....
“Okay.”
The two friends exchanged another look and soon, a wide smile appeared on their lips. Getting Zhang Yi Hai’s approval was never that easy.
As the group was walking along the street to look for a place to have dinner, Zhang Yi Hai suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Tang Yin followed Zhang Yi Hai’s line of gaze and noticed that his friend was looking at a restaurant in front of them.
“Yi Hai, what’s wrong?
Zhang Yi Hai continued to stare at the restaurant beside him.
A while ago, Zhang Yi Hai was close by when Fang Su Jin and her teacher were still discussing their dinner plan. He overheard that the two of them were going to have a meal with that foreign agent to discuss their future collaboration.
This restaurant seemed to be the restaurant that Fang Su Jin’s teacher had mentioned.
Zhang Yi Hai turned to his friends before deciding, “Let’s have our meal here.”
Liu Jin looked at the fancy restaurant in front of them and frowned. Just by looking at the entrance alone, he could already guess that eating at this place shouldn’t be that cheap.
“Yi Hai, didn’t we agree to eat at the noodle stall?” Liu Jin asked.
“Since we are already here, let’s just have our dinner here,” Zhang Yi Hai said.
His roommates were about to protest when they heard his next words, “It’s my treat. Since you have accompanied me today, I’ll treat you to something good.”
A wide smile appeared on their faces as they followed Zhang Yi Hai into the building. As the waiter led them into the dining area, both Tang Yin and Liu Jin could not stop looking around the place.
Fortunately, they were wearing their nicest clothes to visit the art gallery. Otherwise, they would be too embarrassed to enter an expensive restaurant such as this with how they usually dressed up.
Once they were seated, both Tang Yin and Liu Jin could not stop looking around.
Half an hour ago, they have planned to visit their usual noodle stall for dinner. Both Tang Yin and Liu Jin were curious to know why did Zhang Yi Hai suddenly changed his plan.
Of course, they were unaware that Zhang Yi Hai was visiting this restaurant for a certain elder sister.
Zhang Yi Hai shouldn’t care much about Fang Su Jin’s business. He knew that Mika was an agent who was interested in Fang Su Jin’s painting. It should be a good chance for her to have an exhibition overseas.
However, the way that the agent was looking at Fang Su Jin made Zhang Yi Hai uncomfortable.
Now that they were passing by this restaurant, Zhang Yi Hai decided to come over with his roommates to have a meal at this restaurant as well.
Fang Su Jin was a good friend of his sister.
Based on this, Zhang Yi Hai thought that he should help to keep his eyes on her. At least, if something was to happen to Fang Su Jin, he would be close to her to help.
While both Tang Yin and Liu Jin were both looking at the menu, Zhang Yi Hai was busy looking around the place to look for Fang Su Jin.
Fortunately, Zhang Yi Hai and his friends were seated at a corner where it would be easier for them to watch the people come and go.
The waiter came to take their orders and Zhang Yi Hai just ordered anything half-heartedly.
When the waiter left, both Tang Yin and Liu Jin were still discussing the restaurant’s menu.
Zhang Yi Hai had his eyes at the entrance. Very soon, he watched that foreign agent walked into the dining hall followed by both Fang Su Jin and her teacher.
The three of them were ushered to a seat farther than Zhang Yi Hai. However, their seat was still within Zhang Yi Hai’s line of gaze. Once he saw Fang Su Jin sitting down, he quickly retracted his gaze.
“Yi Hai, isn’t that your Sister Fang?” Liu Jin spoke.
Zhang Yi Hai was about to take a sip from his drink when he heard Liu Jin’s words. He raised his head slowly and followed his friend’s gaze.
Fang Su Jin was seated next to her teacher while facing the agent. The waiter was at their table to take their order.
“It seemed like it,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke in a careless tone.
“I didn’t expect that they are going to have dinner at this place as well,” Liu Jin said. “What a coincidence.”
“Mhm...” Zhang Yi Hai lowered his eyelashes. “What a coincidence.”
The waiter soon sent their order to the table.
As Liu Jin and Tang Yin began to eat, Zhang Yi Hai continued to keep his eyes on Fang Su Jin’s table.
Knowing that they were here to discuss her paintings, Zhang Yi Hai deliberately ate his food slowly to delay time.
He had already made his decision.
If that foreign agent tried to do something to Fang Su Jin, then, he would step forward to stop him. Otherwise, Zhang Yi Hai would stay away from them.
Just then, Zhang Yi Hai saw Fang Su Jin standing up before heading to the restroom.
A few minutes later, the agent stood up as well and headed in the same direction as Fang Su Jin.
Zhang Yi Hai took the napkin and wiped his mouth. Then, he stood up and announced, “I’m going to the restroom.”
