Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 691

Ever since the start of the school’s winter holidays, Jasmine had been holing up at home. Her daily routine consisted of eating, sleeping, and reading romance novels on her phone.

Her shoppingmode brother would get the occasional phone call from Josh to dine out, and Jasmine. would invite herself to the get–together in case her shoppingmode brother might sell her out behind her back.

Now that Jasmine received a message from Serenity that the latter was back, Jasmine quickly replied with a voice message.

“How about Italian tonight? Mr. Bucham took my brother to an Italian place, and the food was great. I’ve been waiting for you to come back so we can try out the place. You have no idea. I couldn’t binge when dining with my shoppingmode brother and Mr. Bucham because I’d eat more than them.”

Serenity responded to her with a smile, “I can’t tonight. I just got back with Mr. York. We’re going to have a slow night. How about tomorrow night? Get my sister and Elisa to join us.”

“We don’t have to include Elisa since she eats like a lady. She’s not a foodie like you and I. We’re complete opposites when it comes to food. Your sister is trying to lose weight and is on a strict diet right now. She goes running three times a day. She’d probably end up watching us eat if we asked her to come along. I don’t think we’d be able to eat in peace.

“Seren, your sister’s weight loss is starting to show. I guess you haven’t seen your sister since you just got back. She lost ten pounds in a week. She’s really pushing herself and sticking to her guns. I wouldn’t be able to hold out and stay away from food if it were me.”
