576 Gossips
Fang Su Jin’s body froze when she heard someone say her name. At this time, she realized that it would be impossible for her to continue and hide.
“Why are you guys here?” Zhang Yi Hai asked as he looked at the boys.
Song Xiao Jun, who wanted to run away knew that it would be impossible to escape now. He looked at the triplets who were surprised upon hearing Long Yun’s words and spoke, “We didn’t see you in the hall and decided to come and find you. We...” He glanced at the triplets and tugged at Wei Zi Ming’s arms. “We should go.”
Wei Zi Ming staggered a few steps back. Then, he began to notice that something did not feel right. He turned to Song Xiao Jun and thought that this boy did not seem as surprised as him.
“Xiao Jun...” Wei Zi Ming looked at him inquiringly. “You... did you know about this?”
Song Xiao Jun coughed. “I ran into Brother Yi Hai in Capital City a few months ago and coincidentally saw them together.” He averted his eyes and finally looked at Long Yun. His lips pursed into a thin line, thinking that Long Yun’s reaction was too cool. Just like him, Long Yun did not seem surprised.
Sometimes, Song Xiao Jun would feel as if Long Yun knew a lot of things.
Meanwhile, Fang Su Jin inhaled a deep breath before she finally came out of her hiding place. A faint smile curled on her lips upon noticing that everyone was looking at her. Then, she tugged at Zhang Yi Hai’s sleeve, motioning him to say something.
His heart leaped with joy, knowing that Fang Su Jin was willing to let him introduce her to the others. Swiftly, he wrapped his arms around her waist and spoke, “Everyone, this is my girlfriend, Fang Su Jin.”
.....
It was not the first time that they had seen Fang Su Jin. However, the boys knew her as Zhang Li Xue’s best friend.
At this time, the triplets could not help but recall how Zhang Yi Hai had caught the bouquet earlier.
The triplets had a lot of questions for Zhang Yi Hai. However, they could only suppress their curiosity at this time. They were worried that Fang Su Jin would be uncomfortable and Zhang Yi Hai would be unhappy.
Zhang Yi Hai watched as the boys greeted his girlfriend. Then, he spoke again, “Let’s just return to the hall first. Otherwise, the others would be looking for us.”
The boys quickly agreed. They turned around, heading to the hall again, wanting to find someone so that they could share this gossip.
Zhang Yi Hai held his girlfriend’s hand tightly, never wanting to let her go. While the others were not looking at them, Zhang Yi Hai leaned over and pecked at his girlfriend’s lips.
“What are you doing? Be careful. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if someone sees us.” Fang Su Jin narrowed her eyes, feigning her anger. However, her heart skipped a beat as she saw the smile on Zhang Yi Hai’s face.
This person looked genuinely happy that more and more people seemed to know about their relationship. Fang Su Jin thought that Zhang Yi Hai was cute like this.
Once they returned to the hall, Zhang Yi Hai noted that the triplets had dispersed.
He looked around before finally taking Fang Su Jin to the table where the others were gathering. Almost everyone was around except for the younger generation like Uncle Qi Zheng’s daughter, Qi Yue.
When they arrived, Long Yun was telling the Lu twin sisters about the gossip he found out a while ago. At the side, the triplets were telling the others about the scene they witnessed.
Zhang Yi Hai glanced at his girlfriend and saw the shy look on her face. He could predict that tomorrow morning, his aunts and uncles would find out about them as well.
“Hello, Sister Fang,” Lu Xia greeted. “We meet again.”
In their group, there were not too many girls around. Seeing that Lu Xia and Lu Jing were both talking to Fang Su Jin made him feel more at ease. At least, she would not feel that awkward.
Last time, Lu Xia and Lu Jing both attended Fang Su Jin’s art exhibition. Although they only meet briefly, the three of them quickly became comfortable talking to each other.
The boys started to tease Zhang Yi Hai about his relationship. No one mentioned their age differences.
At this time, a young girl with peach colored dress walked over to the table carrying a tray of cakes. She placed the cakes on the table and urged everyone to take a slice.
Zhang Yi Hai took one of the plates and spoke, “Qin Lian, did you make the cakes?”
The girl laughed. “No. This is Sister Li Xue’s wedding cake. It’s too special. My dad will not allow me to touch this. I only help a little bit.” Qin Lian thought of how fierce her father would act in the kitchen and did not dare to pester him.
Her father was always very grateful to the Zhang family. Because of that, even though he was no longer making pastries and cakes for others, her father would always enter the kitchen again when the Zhang family made a request.
Qin Lian was Uncle Qin Zhan’s eldest daughter. Like her father, she was also very good at making pastries. But as she was still young, Qin Lian’s technique was not very good as her father’s. But after a few years, they all expected that this girl’s skills might surpass her father’s.
Hearing that it was Uncle Qin Zhan’s cake, Zhang Yi Hai quickly passed the cake to his girlfriend. “You should try this. It’s delicious.” Noticing that Qin Lian was looking at them, Zhang Yi Hai quickly introduced, “This is my girlfriend, Fang Su Jin. Su Jin, this is Qin Lian.”
Qin Lian looked at Fang Su Jin in surprise. She quickly recovered and greeted her amiably.
Initially, Zhang Yi Hai was afraid to leave his girlfriend alone. However, seeing that she was starting to get comfortable with everyone else put him in a good mood.
He stood at the side, watching as everyone chatted happily and started to think of the bouquet that he had unexpectedly caught earlier.
Zhang Yi Hai wondered just how soon would be too soon for him to start thinking about marriage.
