Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Chapter 858

The atmosphere of the dinner turned out to be more awkward than the two ladies thought.

As it turned out, Rong Yi was also someone not fond of talking. He was very quiet.

That was a shared quality between him and Nan Chen.

Unfortunately, the only similarity between the two men made it even more challenging for them to get along with each other.

Ning Ran had pulled many strings to get the two of them together for a meal. Seeing that her plan was about to fail, she began to panic.

“Ahem.” Ning Ran cleared her throat and raised her glass somewhat awkwardly. “Let's raise a toast! It's a rare opportunity for all of us to gather together.”

Yet, neither Nan Chen nor Rong Yi budged. Both parties were waiting for the other person to make the first move, for neither of them wanted to drink with the other person.

To lighten the mood, Rong Rong raised her glass to play along. “That's right. It's rare that we gather together. Let's make a toast! Until now, I still remember the time Ran had stood up for me against the delinquents back in Livingsfill.”

Rong Rong was hinting to Rong Yi that Ning Ran was her friend. In other words, Rong Rong was expecting Rong Yi to save Ning Ran some face despite his hostility toward Nan Chen.

As a well-mannered man, Rong Yi caught onto Rong Rong's hint quickly and reluctantly raised his glass.

Seeing that Rong Yi had raised his glass, Nan Chen followed suit. The four of them clinked their glasses before taking a sip respectively.

However, the room fell back into a heavy silence after the toast.

Unhappy with the progression of the meeting, Ning Ran tried to turn things around. Even if she failed in the end, she could tell herself that she had at least tried.

“Mr. Rong, there are a few things I would like to say. If I say anything wrong, please forgive me,” Ning Ran said with a polite smile.

Rong Yi nodded courteously. “Go ahead, Ms. Ning. I'm not easily offended.”
