Chapter 378: 378: Drinking Water Outside with Gu Linxi
As soon as they got there, the owner made two cups of coffee especially for them and even came over to make small talk for a while before leaving.
The Blue Mountain coffee here was freshly ground by the owner himself, and the beans had a rich and fragrant aroma. Rong Yan eagerly took a sip from her cup and only then, satisfied, put it down, saying to the person opposite her, “The coffee here is still the best!”
Gu Linxi’s eyes twinkled with a smile, and she too took a sip, “You don’t have a schedule today?”
As she lifted her cup, the sleeve on her wrist slid down, revealing a section of her fair wrist. Rong Yan, with her sharp eyes, noticed a red string bracelet on her wrist, adorned with a uniquely shaped little bell. The painted bell was exquisite in its craftsmanship, not large but very pretty.
“You’re not unaware of the mess online, right? I haven’t arranged any schedules for these two days,” Rong Yan blinked her eyes steadily, taking a careful look to make sure she wasn’t seeing things.
She remembered Xixi once said she didn’t like to wear trinkets on her body. Why then did she have on a red string bracelet that also looked like a couple’s design? The key point was, she seemed to have seen it somewhere before.
Where had she seen it before?
Rong Yan couldn’t quite remember at the moment.
“What are you looking at?” Gu Linxi found it hard to ignore her staring so intently. When she realized Rong Yan was looking at the thing on her wrist, she reflexively pulled her sleeve down to cover it. Before Rong Yan could ask her, she preempted with a red herring, “A little gift from a friend, I thought it was cute so I wore it.”
“Oh.” She hadn’t asked about the bracelet, had she?
Xixi’s reaction was too abnormal!
There must definitely be something up!
Seeing her gaze still fixed on her wrist, Gu Linxi became increasingly uncomfortable, hid her left hand behind her back, and forcibly changed the subject, “By the way, last time I asked you to check who the president of your fan club was for me, did you find out?”
Sure enough, the question diverted Rong Yan’s attention.
Rong Yan moved her gaze away, her eyebrows knitted, and with an expression of vexation, she said, “I asked. It’s not someone the company arranged. I don’t know who it is.”
“You don’t know who it is? That’s not possible,” Gu Linxi was quite surprised.
How could she not know? Normally, the president of a fan club, someone who manages the fans, would be someone appointed by the celebrity’s team. It was strange that Yan didn’t know…
“I really don’t know who it is, but it’s definitely not someone arranged by the company.”
Gu Linxi showed a puzzled expression, “Then who could it be…?”
This was too weird, wasn’t it?
“I don’t know. If I did, I wouldn’t have applied with a burner account only to get rejected.” She herself had been rejected from joining her own fan club—could anyone be more unfortunate?
Gu Linxi, already curious about who the president of the fan club was, now had her curiosity truly piqued and decided, “Let’s just check the president’s login IP another day to see who it really is. I’ll tell you once I find out.”
Rong Yan was also very curious about who it could be and readily agreed, “OK.”
After discussing the mysterious president of the fan club, Gu Linxi also asked about the rumors and gossip circulating online about her.
The two of them talked until the late afternoon was nearing evening before parting ways. Gu Linxi had to rush back to work on her customer’s newly ordered car, and Rong Yan glanced at the time, hailed a cab, and prepared to go back as well.
