Chapter 116: Acceptance and Gift

"Let me just grab my purse real quick. Excuse me." 

Holding the coat firmly on her shoulder, Xiu Mei stood up from her seat to walk back to her friends' table. Lu Chen followed behind her. 

"Are you going?" Lia asked, returning to their table as well. 

"Mm. Ah, before I leave." Xiu Mei turned to look at Lu Chen and started introducing her middle school friends. 

"This is Lia, Jing Yan, Qiao Qing, and Jia Ying. They're my friends from middle school." She introduced her four friends to Lu Chen respectively. Then she turned to her friends.

"I know you already know him so, I'll just make it short. Lu Chen, um, my boyfriend." 

Somehow, the word 'boyfriend' rolled awkwardly in her mouth. Since she was used to introducing Lu Chen as either her boss or the CEO so introducing him as her boyfriend felt a bit awkward.
