Guagua: "I'm free at noon."

Jiang Yan replied instantly: "OK, where should I pick you up?"

Guagua: "Just give me a spot, I'll go by myself."

Jiang Yan sent him a location, which was a Western restaurant. Nan Yu tidied herself up, put on a wig, and although it was springtime, the weather was still rather cold. She wore white pants, white sneakers, a gray and white color-blocked sweater as an inner layer, and a British-style white and gray trench coat on the outside.

If it's a girl, he's a bit on the taller side.

Her waist isn't that slim either.

However, her beautiful face makes people subconsciously ignore everything else and only think that she is probably tall and has a large frame, so she is a beauty.

Nan Yu went to keep the appointment.

He didn't know what "Xiangsi" meant, nor did he know what he looked like.

Jiang Yan recognized the boy at a glance; he was even more stunning than Jiang Yan had imagined. He strode over and said, "Hello."

Nan Yu looked at the man in front of her, who appeared to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, handsome, and about 180 cm tall. Because she felt he wasn't as tall as Chen Linzhou, she tentatively asked, "Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Yan smiled and nodded: "You're prettier offline than on live stream."

Nan Yu: "Thank you."

Jiang Yan is easily tempted by beautiful women; he might want to hold their hands, and if they don't resist, he could coax them a bit more, and then...

Jiang Yan's hand was slapped away; the boy's grip was strong, and Jiang Yan's face contorted in pain. Nan Yu smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, I'm only keeping this appointment for a meal. Didn't we agree on that?"

Jiang Yanxin knew he couldn't rush things, so he suppressed the pain, smiled, and nodded, "I apologize for my intrusion, please."

The gentleman made way.

Jiang Yan led Nan Yu to the dining table, where the waiter gave them the menu. Jiang Yan pushed the menu to the beauty, his eyes practically glued to her, unwilling to look away for a moment. "Order what you like."

Nan Yu ordered a steak and handed the menu to Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan then ordered several more dishes and a bottle of red wine.

"Guagua, how old are you this year?"

Nan Yu vaguely remembered telling him that she was nineteen last year and twenty this year: "How old are you?"

Jiang Yan: "Ten years older than you."

Nan Yu tilted his head slightly. He was thirty years old, but he looked a little younger than his actual age. Every smile and frown of his was incredibly alluring to Jiang Yan. Even the slight tilt of his head was enough to make the man lose his mind.

Jiang Yan: "Your name is Nan Yu, right?"

Nan Yu nodded.

Jiang Yan: "Can I call you Yu Bao?"

Nan Yu was so embarrassed by the mushy talk. Shen Linzhou didn't call her Yu Bao anymore, and would call her Bao Bao from time to time, but often called her Xiao Yu. She was a little at a loss, picked up the water on the table, and brought it to her lips as a cover-up.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could always see him staring straight at me.

Nan Yu felt uncomfortable and coughed lightly: "You should just call me by my full name."

Jiang Yan: "Aren't you used to it? I'll still call you Guagua. Where do you live?"

Nan Yu: "Can we not talk about privacy?"

Jiang Yan was surprised that he was so wary. He smiled, nodded slightly, and tried to find other topics to talk about, such as whether he liked traveling. The two of them exchanged questions and answers, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

"Where the hell are you?" Xiao Chuan took the cigarette out of his mouth, stomped it out, and searched for it using the GPS, cursing and swearing. His neck ached, and he raised his head, "...Damn it! You made me search all over the place, just you wait!"

He entered the Western restaurant with a displeased expression.

I looked around but didn't see Jiang Yan, but I did see...

The man sitting opposite Xiao Chuan raised a thick eyebrow slightly. Their eyes met, and Xiao Chuan was speechless.

Unseen, unfamiliar.

Upon seeing him, I remembered. No wonder the name Jiang Yan sounded familiar at first. He has a cousin named Jiang Yan, who grew up abroad. They would occasionally meet during the Chinese New Year, but they weren't close and would just greet each other when they met.

Jiang Yan said to Nan Yu, "I ran into an acquaintance, I'll go say hello."

Nan Yu nodded.

I don't want to know who his acquaintances are.

Focus on eating the steak on the plate in front of you.

Jiang Yan: "Xiaochuan."

Xiao Chuan gave an awkward laugh: "Brother Yan."

Jiang Yan: "Alone?"

Xiao Chuan shook his head: "I made an appointment with a friend."

He didn't see Jiang Yan, but Jiang Yan saw him. Everyone else was sitting, and only the two of them were standing. It was impossible not to see them. He was now incredibly eager to complain and wanted to get Xiao Chuan over as soon as possible. He saw Xiao Chuan being stopped by a stranger and wondered what was going on, but he couldn't wait even a second longer.

Get up from your position and stride over.

And just like that, the wick was visible.

Jiang Yan thought he was seeing things.

Why has your hair grown so long?

The more I looked at it, the more it resembled Nanyu jade.

Considering that he was livestreaming in the bathroom with a strained voice at the beginning of the semester, it's not impossible that he would wear women's clothing.

But he couldn't be sure. After all, the other person was wearing makeup, and it's normal for people to look alike. It would be impolite to mistake one for the other, but if it really was him...

Jiang Yan curled his lips into a smile.

Jiang Yan nodded, "Next time we meet, I'll bring a friend too."

Xiao Chuan hummed in response and happened to see Jiang Yan walking behind his unfamiliar cousin. Seeing that Jiang Yan's gaze was fixed on a certain spot, he curiously looked in that direction.

His eyes widened slightly, and he immediately exclaimed, "Nan Yu?"

When Nan Yu heard his name called, his hand holding the fork trembled. Reason told him to hide quickly, but instinct led him to look up first and see Xiao Chuan, as well as Jiang Yan, who was some distance away from him.

His expression changed abruptly. Remembering that he was dressed as a woman, he quickly lowered his head and pretended not to recognize her.

That's so unlucky.

He doesn't often wear women's clothing when he goes out.

I wore it three times.

There were accidents all three times.

I will never wear it again.

Nan Yu wailed inwardly, wishing she could find a place to crawl into.

Jiang Yan laughed at his reaction. It really was a little cake, and it was dressed up beautifully. Jiang Yan frowned in confusion and asked, "Do you two know each other?"

Nan Yu really wanted to shut him up.

Unfortunately, it was too late; it was too late.

Xiao Chuan couldn't believe it. Seeing his roommate dressed as a woman, his ears turned red with embarrassment. Jiang Yan sensed that something was off and asked again, "Are you friends?"

Jiang Yan asked with a half-smile, "What's your relationship?"

Jiang Yan didn't say much, only saying, "Friend."

Nan Yu took the menu and covered her face, listening to their back-and-forth conversation. She couldn't stand it anymore, but dared not move, playing the ostrich.

Jiang Yan didn't want to disturb his time with Guagua. He didn't know what was going on with them, but they didn't seem to be doing well. He politely said to Xiao Chuan, "Xiao Chuan, you and your friend can pay for today's meal. Go order."

Jiang Yan: "Mind if we go together?"

Jiang Yan: "..."

Xiao Chuan kept glancing at Nan Yu; she was so beautiful.

Completely oblivious to his cousin's displeasure, Jiang Yan, fearing that Nan Yu would leave, could only say, "There are no seats, let's change tables. Don't worry about the money, just give me the bill after you finish eating."

Jiang Yan dragged a chair from the empty table next to him, sat down next to Nan Yu, tilted his head to look at him, his eyes full of smiles:

"Xiaoyu~ Are you embarrassed to see people?"

"We won't talk nonsense. Eat up, taking a menu won't fill you up."

Why isn't Shen Linzhou with you?

It would have been better if Shen Linzhou hadn't been mentioned, because once he was, Nan Yu was completely flustered. She wanted to run away and was about to slip away, but Jiang Yan saw through her intentions and pressed her back into her seat.
