"I knew it! You were up to no good when you invited me to dinner! You were definitely plotting something!"

The orange hamster on its head, seemingly enjoying the spectacle, waved its little fists, clearly wanting to teach Lin Mo a lesson.

Hey, hey, hey, don't make it sound like I'm planning to do something illegal!

Lin Mo covered his face and sighed.

Li Ling felt a little embarrassed; he hadn't expected the other person to be so lively... He really couldn't handle this girl.

For some reason, Qingque felt even more sour than if she had eaten a plum. She pouted and gave Qingque a dissatisfied look.

Hmph, scheming and plotting something bad~ They're up to no good~

Tsk tsk, this woman is definitely trying to get closer to Lin Mo by saying that!

She really is a bad woman!

At the same time, Susan felt the hostile gaze, paused slightly, then turned around, glanced at Qingque, and then looked at Lin Mo, teasingly saying, "Lin Mo... is this cute little girl your girlfriend? That's really surprising! Even a master of slacking off like you can find a girlfriend! Unbelievable, truly unbelievable!"

As she spoke, Susan gave Lin Mo a thumbs up.

"Looks quite young, very tough! Very easy to torture!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's lips twitched, thinking to himself that this girl really hadn't changed at all... she still loved to make random jokes just like back then.

Qingque, standing to the side, blushed instantly!

Oh my god, what does she mean by saying that?!

What a joke! How could this happen?!

Isn't this giving me the upper hand?

No! That's not how it works!

Qingque quickly calmed down, and then her brain, which had been idle for many years, was instantly stimulated, and countless neurons were awakened. At this moment, she was like Sherlock Holmes, quickly analyzing Susan's words!

This wicked woman's thoughts are definitely not that simple!

This remark, besides being meant to liven things up, must have had an ulterior motive!

Making jokes in this situation... is fine if the girl and her boyfriend are already in a relationship... but if they aren't...

So what kind of reaction should we make?

Qingque found a clue and immediately made a hypothesis...

Faced with this situation, there are currently only two possible responses.

One option is to remain silent, or simply laugh it off, but doing so, in a way, is tantamount to tacitly acknowledging the relationship between the two parties...

How could you do this!

Lin Mo never even chased me, how could he have gotten me for free like that!

The second scenario is that the girl takes the initiative to refute and explain the situation... but this subtly distances the two of them! Even using a humorous tone will create a certain barrier between Lin Mo!

Yes! That must be it! This wicked woman definitely wants me to choose the second option! So that my relationship with Lin Mo will have a flaw! So that she can take advantage of the situation!

Damn it, she really is a bad woman!

However... my intelligence and perseverance are superior to yours!

Qingque quickly weighed the pros and cons and made a decision.

She smiled smugly, straightened her back, crossed her arms, and looked as if she had known everything all along!

Then, amidst the bewildered gazes of the crowd, Qingque suddenly grabbed Lin Mo's arm, proudly raised her head, and said, "I didn't expect you to have such good taste, being able to see the relationship between us at a glance!"

Lin Mo: "Huh???"

When did this happen? How come I don't know about it?

Lin Mo's mind went blank for a moment.

Susan: "???"

Li Ling: "..."

Even if that's what they say... you don't have to show it so directly...

Susan gave an awkward laugh.

What the heck! I was just joking!

The orange hamster on its head also realized that something was wrong. It rubbed its sleepy eyes, stretched, and glanced at the arrogant bluebird.

A fleeting darkness crossed Susan's eyes.

To ease the awkwardness, she smiled and exclaimed, "Hehe, Lin Mo, your girlfriend is so cute!"

"No... listen to me, damn it!"

Lin Mo finally came to his senses. He glanced blankly at Qing Que beside him, then tried to explain, but Qing Que nudged him with her elbow, rendering him speechless.

Li Ling, standing to the side, was even more at a loss.

Susan was speechless for a moment.

"Sorry, my little Lin always likes to act innocent after getting a good deal!"

When she said the word "then," Qingque kicked Lin Mo hard again to prevent him from getting up to explain.

Then, he looked at Susan with a provocative gaze, extended his hand to her, and introduced himself: "Hehe, my name is Qingque, a diviner from the Taibu Si. Your name is Susan, right? It's nice to meet you!"

Hmph, I dare to self-destruct? Do you dare? Do you dare? Do you dare?

Susan came to her senses, smiled helplessly, shook hands with Qingque, and said, "It's... nice to meet you, Qingque."

At this moment, the world where only Lin Mo was injured was finally achieved.

He slowly stood up, his pupils filled with nothing but blankness.

What happened?

Why is Qingque acting so strangely today?

What did I do wrong?

Lin Mo looked at Susan and Qing Que, who had become friends, and gave a wry smile.

That beating was worth it.

Qingque glanced at the time and said, "It's getting late, let's go eat together!"

Now that Susan had recovered, she wore the same bright smile she had when she first arrived and said, "Great! Lin Mo told me on social media that he would personally invite me to dinner at Zhiwei Shengyuan when I arrived!"
