He Jichen thought maybe Ji Yi went to the restroom, so he didn't think too much of it He nonchalantly averted his eyes towards the waitress who brought hilasses with everyone in the roo everyone, He Jichen then pulled out a chair and took a seat

The people in the room endlessly tried to find topics to talk about with him

He Jichen never liked these kinds of lively situations, yet it wasn't a responsibility he could avoid Having to face each person there, he either nodded or said a few polite words in response

He seemed evidently more distant than the friendly people around him, but that was fine The livelier the atmosphere in the room was, the less likely it would be silent and aard

After a while, everyone's conversations slowly moved away from his appearance

He Jichen used that opportunity to pull out a single cigarette, lit it up, and out of years of habit, he didn't sers and every now and again, he tapped the ashes into the ashtray

As the smoke slowly fell, three words slipped froh asking for confiryi?"

"Yeah, Mr Lin went to the restrooo, but he hasn't come back yet"

Before Lu Nan could finish, He Jichen put out the cigarette in his fingers and suddenly got up

It was so sudden that it caught everyone's attention Sonored them and kicked the chair back as he rushed out of the private dining room
