After Being Bent by Reader (GL) Chapter 76-Pt.1

On Friday night, Fang Qin called and invited Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi out for dinner. The venue was a Korean barbeque restaurant that opened up recently.

When Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi arrived at the restaurant, Fang Qin had already waited for half an hour.

However, Fang Qin didn't complain about the delay this time. Fang Qin was dressed casually tonight, and she looked very laid-back. Upon seeing Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi, she joked, "You two are so slow. You know you don't need to pay so much attention to dressing up when meeting with friends, right?"

Murong Shi pulled out a chair for Xu Chuanchuan.

Meanwhile, Xu Chuanchuan sat on the chair and awkwardly smiled, saying, "No, it's mainly because there were still too many people in the office just now. We had to wait for most of them to leave before we could leave ourselves. The traffic on the way here was quite congested as well."
