The grand group had dwindled to just Lu Xize and Zhu Qinghan after Jiang Baizhou, Cen Jin, and Ye Lingran left.
Lu Xize, with one hand in his pocket, tilted his head to look at Zhu Qinghan's profile, his face still brimming with a carefree smile, "Senior, any plans for the afternoon?"
"I have plans with someone this afternoon, I'll take a cab there, it's about time, and I know you're very busy, so I won't bother you. Let's have a meal together next time when we're both free," Zhu Qinghan replied with a gentle smile and light tone. She indeed had plans for 3:30 PM, but now that Jiang Baizhou was gone, there was no need to linger.
Lu Xize, though free today, didn't intend to waste time with Zhu Qinghan. Though acquainted, they weren't particularly close. Just a courtesy would suffice, and besides, he had a dinner to attend tonight — a friend's birthday — which he must go to.
"Alright then, I won't keep you. Let's invite Senior Zhu Chen for a meal next time."
