Chapter 342 Is his differential treatment because he's fallen for A-Chu? [17]

Su Xingyue's heart skipped a beat when she saw Song Lin's two different attitudes towards her and A Chu.

Others might not know, but she did!

Song Linke was even Chu's boyfriend for a few days!

Could it be that he's treating A-Chu differently because he's fallen for her?

Su Xingyue was worried and gritted her teeth, but dared not say anything more.

After all, she hadn't figured out Song Lin's personality yet, and she didn't want him to say anything unpleasant again!

Because Song Lin is Ye Wenyuan's older brother, and he is also young, he basically stays with A Chu and the others.

The banquet naturally included entertainment, and someone suggested going next door to play billiards.

"Brother Yuan, let's go together!"

"Yeah, Brother Yuan, after I lost to you last time, I went back and practiced really hard!"

Ye Wenyuan had originally planned to follow A Chu around the clock because A Chu didn't have a white cane.

So he wanted to go, but at the same time he was worried about Ah Chu.

Seeing the hesitant expression on Ye Wenyuan's face, Su Xingyue's eyes darted around.

She smiled and took Ah Chu's hand, saying to Ye Wenyuan, "I'll take care of my sister!"

"It's so boring being with a grown man like you!"

Several girls nearby laughed and chimed in, "That's right! We girls want to chat about gossip and stuff, but it's not appropriate for you guys to listen. You should go play pool instead!"

Ye Wenyuan thought it made sense, and looked at A Chu, saying to her, "Xingyao, you stay with Yueyue and the others, I'm going to play for a while?"

Achu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and replied, "Okay."

Ye Wenyuan was going to play billiards with his friends and dragged Song Lin along with him.

Song Lin didn't refuse, mainly because he had no reason to refuse.

As for A-Chu, after Ye Wenyuan left, Su Xingyue warmly led her and several other girls to the other side.

They sat on the sofa drinking and chatting, laughing and joking, with Su Xingyue at the center of their conversation.

As for Achu, she was deliberately ignored by them.

Some people would even deliberately bring up things Ye Wenyuan had done for Su Xingyue when they saw her.

"Honestly, back in high school, I thought Yuan-ge would end up with you, Yueyue!"

"Yeah, yeah! That's what I thought too, but then suddenly the conversation changed and Yuan confessed to Su Xingyao!"

"It was that race, I heard that Brother Yuan wanted to confess to Yueyue after winning the race, but I didn't expect..."

As Ah Chu listened to these words, she put on a perfectly timed expression of being hurt.

Su Xingyue admired the view for a while, and the frustration she had felt because of Song Lin dissipated considerably.

Then she interrupted her best friend, saying, "Hey! Stop talking nonsense, there's no such thing! A-Yuan and I are just good friends, he's Xingyao's boyfriend!"

"Yueyue, you're just too kind!"

Su Xingyue changed the subject, seemingly trying to help A Chu out of a tight spot.

Once the others had stopped talking about it, she leaned close to A-Chu's ear and whispered, "Xingyao, don't worry about it. No matter what happened before, at least A-Yuan is your boyfriend now."

That's basically admitting that Ye Wenyuan did indeed want to confess his feelings to her before.

Achu's eyelashes trembled, and she said softly, "Sister, I want to go to the restroom."

Su Xingyue frowned slightly. She didn't want to actually take care of A Chu and then have to take her to the restroom!

She happened to see a waitress, waved to her, and then said to Ah Chu, "I have to serve them and can't leave. Let someone take you there."

Achu nodded obediently and was carefully led away by the female student.

The venue where the Su family held Su Xingyue's birthday banquet was the most luxurious hotel in Beijing, a place specifically for banquets for the wealthy.

Achu was led through the corridor to the restroom.

The female student escorted her into a cubicle.

"Miss Su, watch out for the steps."

"I'll be waiting for you outside."

Just then, the waitress seemed to hear something through her intercom and explained to the other end, "Head waiter, I'm taking a guest to the restroom right now, so I might not be able to get here in time."

"I really didn't slack off!"

Ah Chu turned to the female student and said, "Thank you, Miss. You don't need to wait for me outside. Go and do your work."

The waitress frowned, somewhat worried: "But your eyes..."

Achu smiled at her: "It's okay, I've already memorized the way I came. It's very flat, I can walk back slowly."

"Or, you can pick me up when you're done with your work."

Hearing the supervisor's predicament, the waitress left and told Ah Chu that she would be back soon.

After the female student left, Ah Chu closed the door to the cubicle.

She quickly came out, fumbled to wash her hands, and then left the restroom under the system's guidance.

In the corridor, Ah Chu gently held onto the wall with one hand and lifted her skirt slightly with the other as she walked slowly.

At that moment, several children who looked to be seven or eight years old were running and chasing each other in the corridor, laughing and joking.

One of the little boys wasn't looking where he was going and, like a little cannonball, crashed straight into Achu.

"ah!"

Achu lost her balance, cried out in surprise, and fell to the side.

A strong hand caught her steadily.

Achu didn't fall to the ground, but instead fell into a broad embrace.

"Are you alright?" The man's concerned voice rang in my ears.

At the same time, the child who bumped into the person said in a clear voice, "Sorry, sister!"

Achu was helped to her feet and gave a faint smile: "It's alright, but you should watch where you're going next time you walk!"

The child responded again and then ran off with his friends.

Ah Chu then looked to his side: "Ah Yuan? Weren't you playing pool with them?"

Looking at the girl who was smiling sweetly at him with her face upturned, Song Lin hesitated whether he should pretend to be his younger brother again.

He pursed his lips, but finally spoke, "I am Song Lin."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Lin saw Ah Chu's expression change, and she took a step back in surprise and embarrassment.

She had been holding his arm, but she quickly let go.

Afraid that she would fall, Song Lin instinctively reached out to protect her.

But there was a wall right next to Achu, so he didn't fall.

"Sorry, I thought it was A-Yuan, your voices are so alike..."

Song Lin slowly clenched his outstretched hand into a fist, his eyes dark and restrained.

"It's okay, our voices really do sound alike."

"By the way, why are you here all by yourself? Let me take you back to the banquet hall."

Achu shook her head distantly: "No need to trouble yourself, I can manage on my own."

Song Lin disliked the way A Chu kept her distance from him, but he couldn't say anything.

After all, in Achu's eyes, they had only met for the first time today.

But with him, they had already gone on dates like any other couple!
