Chapter 104 Darling, can you come with me somewhere?

That day, Wen Jiu had just come out of the library when she received a message from Li Yue.

"Honey, can you come with me somewhere?"

Knowing the girl was in a bad mood lately, she didn't ask any questions and simply replied, "Sure."

Wen Jiu was thinking of going shopping or having a meal, but she never expected that Li Yue would take her to a private party.

What I didn't expect was that as soon as I entered, I saw Jin Yiyan whispering to a pretty girl.

Wen Jiu felt the hand holding her arm tighten for a moment.

She turned around and asked, "Are you leaving?"

“Since we’re already here, there’s no reason for us to leave,” Li Yue smiled at her. “Come on, I’ll take you to eat something delicious.”

Wen Jiu wasn't used to this kind of atmosphere, but seeing how people were acting, she smiled and said, "Okay."

Jin Yiyan glanced at the door, then casually looked away. He didn't say anything, but Xie Tinghe, who was standing next to him, exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Li Yue? Hey, how does she know Xiao Jiu?"

He Shixu raised his eyes.

Among all the formal dresses, there was one figure who was completely covered up.

A hint of a smile appeared in his eyes: "You came straight here after leaving the library."

Xie Tinghe also found it amusing: "To be honest, this is the first time I've ever seen someone wear a sweater and jeans to a party."

Not only did they notice, but everyone else at the party also turned their attention to the two girls.

Who is this?

“My friend,” Li Yue said protectively.

She hadn't originally planned to bring Wen Jiu along, but she didn't have the courage herself.

Although the girl seems naive and innocent, she inexplicably gives people a sense of security and comfort. With her around, she feels much more at ease.

So after thinking about it for a long time in the dorm, I finally sent a message to Wen Jiu.

But I was afraid that something might happen if I brought her to a place like this, so I didn't dare dress her in anything too revealing.

"Hello, little sister," the man greeted Wen Jiu.

Wen Jiu responded politely as always, showing no unease about her attire or the status of those around her.

Its quiet and aloofness is quite eye-catching.

Zhou Yanchuan saw a photo like this: amidst the clinking of glasses and lively conversation, the girl stood quietly in a corner, seemingly both present and detached.

He called Xie Tinghe back.

"What do you mean?" He Shixu leaned back on the sofa, looking up at the person who had just returned after hanging up the phone.

“Have someone keep an eye on him,” Xie Tinghe said, pulling out a cigarette from his pack, taking out a cigarette with one hand, and holding it between his lips. Amidst the swirling smoke, he slowly spoke: “Don’t you think he’s taking this a little too seriously?”

He Shixu didn't reply.

“I messaged him before and he didn’t reply for ages, but this time he called as soon as I sent the photos.”

"Perhaps they just happened to see it."

He Shixu stood up from the sofa as he spoke.

"Where are you going?" Xie Tinghe turned his head to look at him.

"Keep an eye on him," he said slowly and deliberately.

Xie Tinghe was surprised. When did this person become so kind-hearted?

Before the sofa next to her sank, Wen Jiu smelled a faint woody fragrance. She subconsciously moved to the side and then turned her head to look.

She was slightly taken aback when she saw who was sitting next to her.

He Shixu raised an eyebrow at her: "Don't you recognize me?"

"know."

He rested one hand on the sofa, his attitude relaxed and casual, as if chatting with a long-time friend: "What brings you here?"

"I came here to play with my friends."

"Come play..." He glanced down at her phone: "A Sudoku game?"

Wen Jiu turned off her phone screen.

Seeing the person's wary reaction, He Shixu smiled, his tone still gentle and calm: "Shall I take you to a quiet room to wait?"

Wen Jiu said no need, it's fine here.

He didn't force her to go, and when she refused, he stood up from the sofa and said, "Then I won't disturb you while you're playing."

If this person had only said those words, Wen Jiu would have found it to be polite and refined.

However, as he spoke, he glanced at her phone with an ambiguous expression, clearly implying something.

Her expression remained unchanged, and she said calmly, "Okay."

He Shixu then realized that although the girl seemed innocent, her mind was like a mirror, and she could understand everything. It was just a matter of whether she wanted to act like she understood or not.

Li Yue glanced at the person whispering to the woman in the corner and realized she must have been bewitched to come here.

She turned around to lead the girl on the sofa away, but suddenly noticed that there was someone else next to her.

As I got closer and saw her face clearly, her expression changed.

After He Shixu left, she went over and took the girl's arm: "Are you tired? Let's go."

"You don't want to play anymore?"

"Um."

A fleeting look of melancholy crossed those beautiful eyes.

After Wen Jiu caught it, she asked softly, "Have you thought it through?"

The girl didn't answer this time. After a few seconds, she slowly lowered her head.

The soft sobs were muffled by the surrounding noise.

Wen Jiu wasn't good at comforting people, so she raised her hand and covered the slender back of her hand, sitting quietly beside her.

Jin Yiyan stared blankly for a moment, a rare occurrence, at the person who had lowered their head not far away.

She's such a little girl, she can't even act properly, all her thoughts are written on her face.

As he stood up from the sofa and walked over there, the expressions of the people around him changed for a moment, and they looked at each other.

When Wen Jiu saw the man walking towards them, her eyes subtly changed, and she gently shook the girl.

"Mmm." A sound with a distinctly nasal tone.

"He's coming."

"What?"

"Jin Yiyan".

Wen Jiu could feel the person next to her stiffen noticeably when she said that name.

Just as Li Yue looked up, Jin Yiyan walked up to her.

He stopped in front of her, raised his hand to gently touch the corner of her reddened eyes, and said with a hint of helplessness in his voice, "Didn't you say we were breaking up? Why are you crying?"

Li Yue didn't speak, she just looked at him.

After a long time, Xing finally compromised.

"What does Yueyue want to do?"

When Jin Yiyan asked this question, he considered many possibilities: she wanted a gift, or she wanted him to coax her. But he didn't expect the girl to just look at him and say, "Apologize to me."

He laughed, looking at her, his eyes seeming to say: Why don't you listen to what you have to say?

Li Yue stopped talking and just stared at him.

In the silence, Wen Jiu saw the man in front of her smile, and then heard him say, "Okay, apologize."

It was exceptionally quiet all around.

Everyone looked on in astonishment, as if they had witnessed something unbelievable.

Only Wen Jiu was slightly puzzled.

How can someone kiss and embrace another woman while simultaneously whispering sweet nothings to the person in front of them?

That evening, Jin Yiyan drove them back to school. After getting out of the car, Li Yue didn't go straight back to the dormitory, but instead took Wen Jiu to the supermarket, where they took a few bottles of wine from the shelf and paid for them.
