Burning the琉璃盏 of the Heavenly Dao, he was thrown into small worlds to serve his punishment. Holding a grudge, the little lamp wick decides that since the Heavenly Dao has abandoned him, he will cl...
Why aren't you saying anything?
Jiang Yan could tell that Jiang Yan was making things difficult for Nan Yu. He frowned slightly, pulled Jiang Yan up, and said, "I think she doesn't want to talk to you. Please go to another table with Xiao Chuan."
Jiang Yan stared at the man with a half-smile.
She pushed away his hand that was grabbing her clothes.
"How do you know he doesn't want to? We're very good friends, aren't we, Xiaoyu?" She looked down at the boy who was pretending to be an ostrich.
Xiao Chuan snapped out of his daze and, seeing that his cousin was unhappy, grabbed Jiang Yan's arm and said, "Stop messing around. Haven't we already booked the seats? And what do you want to tell me? Let's talk while we eat."
Jiang Yan brushed Xiao Chuan's hand away, and although he didn't sit down again, he deliberately stood next to Nan Yu with his arms crossed and said:
"It's nothing, it's just that our roommate... how did he get there first? No, it should be 'his wife was stolen halfway through.' It's making me angrier and angrier. Hey Xiao Chuan, what do you think, should we contact him later and invite him over for dinner?"
Jiang Yan was a complete outsider.
I didn't understand what he said and didn't want to know more.
The three people present were different.
Everyone understood the hidden meaning in his words.
Shen Linzhou knew that Nan Yu was dressed as a woman, but he didn't know that the person he met with on the second-ranked list seemed to be a relative of Xiao Chuan...
Jiang Yan's face had turned cold. He stared directly at Xiao Chuan and said, "Please take your friend away."
The waiter told the manager, who thought something had happened and rushed over to negotiate. In the end, he coaxed and persuaded Jiang Yan to leave. Nan Yu also saw his meaningful look.
Jiang Yan wanted to change seats so that she wouldn't be too close to them, but she could still see them.
Those piercing gazes made Nan Yu's face sting.
Unable to eat any more, she said to Jiang Yan, "Sorry, I'm not feeling well, I'll head back now."
After the commotion just now, he was actually prepared and didn't want Nan Yu to leave like that. Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Let's not eat here anymore, let's go somewhere else."
Nan Yu: "I'm not eating anymore. I'm going back. Sorry."
He left in a hurry after saying that.
Jiang Yan wanted to chase after him, but Xiao Chuan stopped him. Soon, the boy's figure disappeared. Jiang Yan shook off the other's hand, looking displeased: "What's going on?"
Xiao Chuan was still quite innocent. He had only glanced at Nan Yu a few more times, and the redness on his ears hadn't faded yet. His heart was pounding. He poured the red wine into a wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Instead of answering Jiang Yan, she changed the subject, saying, "I felt your name sounded familiar from the beginning, and I finally remembered it today."
Jiang Yan was puzzled: "What is that?"
They didn't usually hang out together, but Shen Linzhou snatched Nan Yu away, and suddenly they had something in common. It's already the second semester, and this is the first time they've gone out for a meal together.
Xiao Chuan: "Guess what my cousin's name is?"
Jiang Yan frowned: "Just say what you have to say, or shut up. I don't like guessing games."
Xiao Chuan: "How come you're even rougher than me, Jiang Yan?"
Jiang Yan's brows furrowed even more. "Are you fucking crazy?"
Xiao Chuan: "I said my cousin's name is Jiang Yan, which sounds the same as yours but has a different character, the Yan of Shuo Yan."
Jiang Yan cursed, his expression turning ugly. "Would you die if you didn't talk?"
Xiao Chuan laughed heartily when he saw Jiang Yan was angry.
"What's the rush? He has class tomorrow, of course. He can't possibly not go back to school. He asked my cousin out today, so you have to give me some face. Besides, it's not even certain whether Shen Linzhou knows about this. Why do you think he dressed up as a girl to meet my cousin?"
Jiang Yan coldly scoffed: "Who knows!"
I originally wanted to complain about Shen Linzhou, but now I have no desire to complain at all. My mind is full of Nan Yu. Xiao Chuan is the same. I usually think of him as my roommate. He is short and well-behaved.
Unexpectedly, when she dressed up as a girl, she was both sweet and stunning.
They had seen beautiful women, some even more beautiful than Nan Yu, but they were dressed as women, which added to the excitement.
Nan Yu put on her hat as soon as she came out, took out a white mask from her pocket, covered herself up completely, and stood by the roadside trying to hail a taxi.
Jiang Yan caught up and apologized, "I'm sorry, I made your meal unpleasant today."
As she spoke, she raised her hand to look at her watch, which was a Patek Philippe worth more than two million. Nan Yu was there as a live streamer. Usually, these kinds of people are there to protect their big brother, and the real purpose is money.
A watch—if someone knows its value, they'll know Jiang Yan is a wealthy patron. If not 100%, there's a 70-80% chance they'll change their attitude. After all, nobody turns down money.
Jiang Yan wanted to use the luxury watch to attract Nan Yu's attention.
Nan Yu looked at the mechanical movement in his watch and guessed that it was quite valuable. However, he felt he had lost out on this meal. Last time, he was caught by Shen Linzhou, stayed in an apartment, and ended up developing feelings for him.
Nan Yu was extremely annoyed to be caught by Jiang Yan and his group this time, and she had no mind to be on the same wavelength as Jiang Yan anymore.
Seeing that he didn't react, Jiang Yan checked the time, then naturally lowered his hand and said:
"There's still time. How about I go with you to SI to buy you a bag as an apology?"
Girls all love bags, and Jiang Yan was confident he could win her over. However, he hadn't considered that the gender and interests were mismatched.
"No, thank you for your hospitality, I'll be going now."
Just then, an empty taxi appeared. Nan Yu waved it down, and the taxi stopped on the side of the road. Seeing that he was really about to get in, Jiang Yan grabbed his arm and stopped him.
"You're still hungry, why don't you try some Chinese food?"
To avoid suspicion, Nan Yu pushed his hand away, saying, "I'm full, thank you. You should go home early too." The car door was already open, but the man closed it again.
Jiang Yan: "Give me some face."
At the intersection, a top-of-the-line Phaeton was stopped at the red light. The little girl in the back seat was shouting, "No, I want to eat hot pot! Didn't you all say you'd listen to me today?"
The restaurant reservations were all made, but halfway there, Shen Linlin suddenly had a whim and insisted on going to eat hot pot. Shen's mother sat by the window, admiring the scenery outside, automatically blocking out her daughter's noise.
Shen Linzhou gripped the steering wheel, his face full of impatience.
Neither Shen's mother nor her brother paid any attention to Shen Linlin, so Shen Linlin could only cling to her father and whine, "Dad, it's my birthday today!"
Father Shen still doted on his daughter after all, and of course, he couldn't resist Shen Linlin's fussing. He laughed and said, "Alright, it's our princess's birthday today, let's have hot pot then." He turned to his son and said, "Linzhou, you decide what to do."
Shen Linzhou glanced at Shen Linlin in the rearview mirror. He didn't mean anything by it, but he was annoyed by her unpredictable nature. She had chosen the restaurant, but then suddenly decided she wanted to eat hot pot halfway through the trip.
When the red light turns green, turn the steering wheel to the left.
Shen Linlin was delighted and giggled, "There's a super delicious hot pot place on Xihe Road, brother~"
When his brother called out, Shen Linzhou responded with a soft "hmm".
That means I agreed to her request.
I've clicked on navigation, but haven't searched for a location yet.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
Upon closer inspection, a frown appeared between his brows.
The boy was being pestered by Jiang Yan, and the taxi drove away. Nan Yu clenched her fists, wanting to hit someone.
"What exactly do you want? I'm satisfied, very satisfied. I just want to go home now. Why do you insist on making me have another meal with you?"
"We didn't have enough time to get to know each other properly during the meal. Guagua, look how much I tipped you. Putting everything else aside, it's not too much to ask to be friends, right?"
