Mo Huiling looked at them. One was tall and lanky and the other was slender. The two of them actually looked very intimate as they stood closely beside one another.
And Gu Jingze was even carrying a small gift bag in his hand. The shop's name was drawn on the gift bag; it was called "Carving Time".
Mo Huiling walked over in a few hurried steps. She pulled Gu Jingze's arm all of a sudden and quietly inserted herself between the two of them. "Jingze."
She lifted her head and smiled at Gu Jingze. Then, she stretched out her hand as she wanted to take the item in his hand. "What are you holding? Let me take a look."
Gu Jingze subconsciously evaded her. "It's nothing."
Upon being evaded, Mo Huiling's face froze. She looked at Gu Jingze and pursed her lips. "Didn't you bring someone along? Why do you still need to carry this? I'll help you carry it."
Gu Jingze could not help but glance at Lin Che at the side.
She stood there looking at the two of them. Her face seemed to be fairly calm. Gu Jingze said, "No need; it's nothing heavy."
It was difficult for Mo Huiling to say anything again. She could only tilt her head and secretly glare at Lin Che.
Lin Che did not know what she had done wrong to make Mo Huiling detest her so much in such a short time. But thinking about it, it would have been even more strange for Mo Huiling to like her.
Mo Huiling looked at the two of them. "Why are the two of you here?"
Gu Jingze said, "Oh, we just came from eating dinner at the Gu residence."
Once again, Mo Huiling reproachfully turned her head and secretly glanced at Lin Che. "Why did you walk back?"
Gu Jingze said, "We just walked back since we had nothing else to do. Why are you here?"
Mo Huiling raised her head. She looked at Gu Jingze with a face full of cuteness. She completely did not care that Lin Che was still beside her watching. "I just wanted to buy something to eat. I didn't expect to see you two. Jingze, there just happens to be a cafe over there. The ambiance is really there actually. Accompany me there so that we can sit inside, alright?"
Her eyes paused. She turned her head back and said to Lin Che, "Lin Che, it's rare for us to bump into each other here. Let's go over together and sit inside for a bit.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze. She did not really want to intrude upon their quality time together. However, just when she was about to say "No, I'll go home first", she felt Mo Huiling suddenly hook her arm through hers as if pretending to be close to her. "Let's go. We'll go there together and sit for a while."
Lin Che was simply pulled along. She turned her head back speechlessly and looked at Gu Jingze. However,
Gu Jingze's expression was aloof as usual. She could not tell what exactly he was thinking.
Lin Che could only follow them into the cafe.
After sitting down, Mo Huiling automatically sat beside Gu Jingze. She looked at Lin Che across from her, smiled, and said, "What does Miss Lin want to drink?"
Lin Che said, "I'm fine with anything."
To be honest, she did not really like drinking coffee. She could not tell the difference between the flavors of the different types of coffee.
Mo Huiling took charge and called a waiter over. She said directly, "Three Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffees."
Mo Huiling smiled and said, "Jingze only likes drinking Blue Mountain Coffee. The Blue Mountain Coffee from this shop is pretty authentic. Right, Jingze?"
Gu Jingze could tell that Mo Huiling was intentionally leaning close to him. He could not help but be slightly unhappy.
Gu Jingze said, "Anything is fine."
Mo Huiling lifted her head to look at Gu Jingze with a face full of tenderness. "Jingze, you've even lost weight. Have you been getting tired recently? You have to care more about getting rest. Don't be so concerned about your job. Your health is the most important."
