He frowned slightly. Shi Jin asked, "Aren't you going to answer?"
"A friend just wants to meet for drinks."
His words were concise, and it was obvious that he did not want to attend the occasion.
Especially after marrying Shi Jin, he preferred to stay at home with his wife, and he disliked such occasions even more.
"What friend?" Only now did Shi Jin realize that she actually knew very little about Fu Xiuyuan. She had thought that he was a loner and didn't know that he had friends who could drink with him. Could it be the friend that she had messed with in Repulse Bay Villa?
She would have to learn more.
Fu Xiuyuan said, "I haven't seen you in a long time. There's no need to go out and drink."
Therefore, there was no need for him to pick up the phone.
Shi Jin tilted her head. "Of course. Why not?"
Fu Xiuyuan looked at her begrudgingly. "I don't want to hang out with those guys." "Hanging out with friends has its benefits. Otherwise, what would you do when I'm not around?"
"Work."
"What happens after work?"
"Work will never end."
Shi Jin recalled what Fu Heyan said last time. She had said that he had not been living with his family since he was young. He had been sent to a unique school for brain training and intellectual development. He had taken over his job at a young age, so he had had no childhood at all.
This was also an important source of his insecurity.
Since he had friends to drink with, wouldn't it be fun?
"Shall we go together?" Shi Jin said. "1 want to meet your friends too."
And deepen their relationship.
"I'd rather be alone with you." There was a hint of bitterness in the man's eyes.
This made Shi Jin feel like a scumbag, a scumbag who disregarded family harmony and insisted on going out to piay-
She approached Fu Xiuyuan. "I'm already married to you. Shouldn't you take me to meet your friends?"
Fu Xiuyuan nodded immediately. "Okay."
Shi Jin could always convince him easily.
A moment later, the call came again. Fu Xiuyuan pressed the answer button.
He Ziheng's anxious voice came from inside. "Boss, why weren't you picking up the phone? I've been back from Australia for a few months now. Every time I call you, you don't come out. All you do is work. Can't you make time for something else?"
Fu Xiuyuan's gaze landed on Shi Jin.
That gaze was obviously saying that he could, in fact, make time for something else. As long as it was for Shi Jin.
"Boss, say something. Let's have a meal and get together?"
Shi Jin could tell that this friend seemed a little familiar.
She seemed to have played tricks on him back at Repulse Bay Villa? She could not help but feel guilty.
Given Fu Xiuyuan's character and the way Shi Jin had been acting, it was indeed incredible that his friends had not given up on him. Shi Jin was very curious, so she nodded at Fu Xiuyuan.
Fu Xiuyuan said into the phone, "Alright, make a reservation."
"D*mn! Did I hear wrongly? Boss, are you really coming out?"
