299 How rude...

"Sorry, I'm late."

Under Jiang Chen's guidance, the fashionably late Miss Shi finally entered the private room.

Unlike the nonchalance Jiang Chen demonstrated upon entry, Pei Yunxi actively stood up to greet Shi Qianxi upon her arrival.

After all, their statuses were different, and so were their levels of intimacy.

"It's alright, Jiang Chen has already explained it to me."

Shi Qianxi's demeanor underwent a complete transformation from the unpleasant attitude at the charity dinner; at least superficially, she could be described as having a warm smile.

No wonder people always say women are born actresses.

"Shall we add a few more dishes?"

Pei Yunxi, too, held no grudges, and both women implicitly understood each other as if the previous displeasure had never occurred.

"No need, there are so many dishes here, it's enough."

Shi Qianxi glanced at the almost overflowing table.
