"Beep beep!"

"Beep beep!"

Jiang Yimei's phone rang, its sound particularly loud in the quiet atmosphere.

Jiang Yimei opened her bag, took out her phone, and saw that it was Yao Yao calling. She swiped to answer: "Hello! Yao Yao, what's up?"

"Why aren't you back so late? Where have you been?"

Normally, Jiang Yimei would be back by 6 PM, but she hadn't returned by 8 PM tonight, and there hadn't been a single phone call or WeChat message, so Yao Yao couldn't help but worry.

Jiang Yimei looked up at Lin Congzhi, her pink lips curving into a smile: "I'm having dinner with someone who saved my life."

"Who is it?" Yao Yao asked curiously.

Jiang Yimei usually doesn't talk about her savior; so either something has happened, or she's joking.

Jiang Yimei remained expressionless: "Lin Congzhi, whom you think about day and night."

Yao Yao protested, "Pah, pah, pah, I don't miss him at all! I miss my idol, Xiao Kai Kai!"

"Okay, okay, your idol is the best!"

Jiang Yimei was speechless. She felt that Yaoyao had changed completely since she met Gao Jiakai.

Judging from both her tone and her words, Yao Yao felt that Jiang Yimei was joking, so she couldn't help but ask seriously, "To be honest, are you really with Lin Congzhi?"

Jiang Yimei said without room for argument, "Why would I lie to you?"

"You've reconciled so quickly? You're quite something, a real prodigy."

Yao Yao smiled broadly, her smile carrying a deep meaning.

Jiang Yimei said without a smile, "What are you talking about? He really is my savior."

In this situation, Yao Yao became serious: "Who bullied you again?"

Jiang Yimei recounted the incident concisely: "After get off work in the evening, I was dragged into a dark corner by two masked thugs and attacked with iron bars. Lin Congzhi rushed over without hesitation, helped me defeat the two masked thugs, and saved my life. Can you believe he isn't my savior?"

"Really?" Yao Yao exclaimed in astonishment.

My best friend's explanation sounded too incredible and a bit hard to believe.

Jiang Yimei said with absolute certainty, "I'd be a dog if I lied to you."

His tone was so firm, he couldn't be lying. Yao Yao asked anxiously, "Then you're not hurt, are you?"

Jiang Yimei glanced at Lin Congzhi, her eyes filled with admiration, and said smugly, "That guy is extremely fast; it would be difficult for me to get hurt."

Upon hearing this, Lin Congzhi curled his lips, feeling that Jiang Yimei's words were becoming increasingly outrageous.

If it weren't for her defensive kick, he might not have been able to ensure she wouldn't get hurt.

"Hey! Why does that sound like you're smug and overconfident?"

Yao Yao smiled broadly, sensing that her best friend's relationship with Lin Congzhi was progressing.

Jiang Yimei replied without any modesty, "That's right, my former male god was still very impressive."

Yao Yao was fed up with her best friend's public displays of affection: "Fine, fine, then you can have dinner with your former crush."

OK!

After hanging up the phone and putting it away, Jiang Yimei's smile faded as she stared at Lin Congzhi, who had been watching her with a wide grin: "What?"

Lin Congzhi didn't hide anything: "I feel like you're quite good at bragging."

"I wasn't completely exaggerating."

The implication is that the main credit belongs to Lin Congzhi.

Lin Congzhi didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer: "Alright, let's eat!"

While Jiang Yimei was on the phone, the snacks she ordered arrived one after another, and now the two of them could start eating.

Looking at the table full of fragrant food, Jiang Yimei was already drooling. After being urged by Lin Congzhi, she immediately picked up her chopsticks and began to eat heartily.
