Su Nuanyang, who was sitting on the other side, didn't pay much attention to what was happening at the table.

She looked at Su Manxing who was drinking beside her, and silently put a lot of dishes into her bowl.

"Sister, eat some food."

When Su Manxing heard this, she looked down at Su Nuanyang who was smiling at her and ignored him, continuing to fill her own glass.

"Sister~"

Su Nuanyang saw that her sister ignored her, so she quietly pulled her sleeve under the table and begged in a low voice.

Su Manxing looked at Su Nuanyang's flattering tone, put down the wine glass somewhat unnaturally, and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the food in the bowl.

"Are you embarrassed to eat it?"

The harsh voice in his ears almost made Su Manxing drop his chopsticks.

"How dare you eat what Xiao Nuan picked for you? How can you be so embarrassed? You should go to hell!"

Su Manxing was in a trance and saw her parents standing in front of her and scolding her again.

Ji Yao, who was sitting next to her, watched her movements suspended in the air and glanced at her with a hint of doubt.

However, because Su Manxing's long hair blocked her face, he couldn't see her expression.

"elder sister?"

Su Nuanyang was also confused and pulled Su Manxing's sleeve slightly.

Su Manxing came back to his senses and tried hard to suppress the fear in his heart, stuffing the dish into his mouth.

He ate the food in front of him in a way that he almost buried his head in the bowl.

Ji Yao looked at Su Manxing strangely, glanced at the six people at the table with different expressions, and took a sip of wine with interest in his eyes.

It's really interesting... these people.

"Hey, Pei Yan, are you done eating?"

Li Lili's mouth was red from eating. She looked at Pei Yan who stood up and was about to leave and spoke in confusion.

"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Don't try to deceive men, will you?"

Li Junhao couldn't help but complain in a low voice when he saw Pei Yan's painting, which was more beautiful than any other woman present.

"I'm busy today. If you don't mind, can we have a one-on-one duel some other time?"

After hearing this, Pei Yan lowered her eyes and looked at Li Junhao with a calm expression but a somewhat arrogant tone.

"Hey! You kid, let's fight one-on-one. My muscles are not for show."

Li Junhao was shocked instantly.

Pei Yan nodded without saying anything else, said something to Li Lili, and left quickly.

"I won't disturb your meal."

Li Lili rubbed her face speechlessly as she watched the sudden farce.

"Pei Yan, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. We'll make an appointment next time."

The awkward atmosphere caused others to look at them curiously.

Only Su Manxing never looked up and paid attention, concentrating on drinking and eating in front of him.

It perfectly portrays the character of an alcoholic.

Putting aside these small details, the atmosphere of this hotpot is still good.

The hot pot base prepared by Li Lili is very authentic Sichuan hot pot and very spicy.

Those beef and mutton rolls are so delicious when dipped in the spicy hot pot.

"Hoo~Hoo~ It's so spicy it's killing me."

Li Lili fanned herself and took a sip of ice-cold beer before she came to her senses a little.

Seeing that the rest of the people had basically finished their meals, she thought for a moment and made a suggestion.

"Hot pot is over. Do you want to go upstairs and get some fresh air? I recently renovated the rooftop. Next time we have a hot pot party, we can eat up there. It won't be so hot."

She rented the house to young people just to make some friends.

"Can."

Ji Yao had no response after hearing this.

Su Nuanyang looked at Li Lili staring at her expectantly, then turned to look at Su Manxing who was drinking beside her.

"Sister, can we go upstairs to look at the stars?"

Although he knew that Su Manxing would not give any answer, Su Nuanyang would diligently ask every time he chatted with her sister.

Su Manxing, holding a beer in his hand, had no objection to where they were going, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing that Su Manying showed no resistance, Su Nuanyang agreed to Li Lili's request.

"My sister and I went there."

Seeing that many people agreed, the other two did not refuse, and soon each took a bottle of beer and walked upstairs.

Song Ming, who was walking in front, looked back at Su Nuanyang, who was holding hands with him at the end.

There was some surprise in his eyes.

During this hotpot, he spent most of his time observing Su Nuanyang, and then sadly discovered that Su Nuanyang could talk so much.

He thought of Su Nuanyang who hardly spoke a word in the classroom. He really didn't expect that she had such a talkative side.

The rooftop decoration is really nice. There is transparent tempered glass on it facing the door, with stools and a small round table placed in the middle, surrounded by many colorful lights, and many green plants placed in the corner on the other side. The environment is very quiet and relaxing.

"Everyone, feel free to stroll around and sit down. You can come up here at any time, but please take away any trash you create."

Li Lili sat down in the recliner and spoke, looking up to admire the stars above her head.

The others were either sitting and resting or wandering around.

After Su Manxing came up, he didn't notice the vast sky above his head at all.

Her attention was focused on the lights of thousands of houses in the distance.

Looking at the smell of fireworks, I unconsciously walked closer to the edge of the rooftop.

Because the edge of the rooftop was as high as her waist, Su Nuanyang was not worried about her sister getting into an accident.

It was rare for Su Manxing to come out for some fresh air at night, so she sat aside and watched.

Didn't go over to disturb you.

Su Manxing walked to the edge of the bed and looked at the lights of a house in the distance, feeling a little sad.

Her mother used to leave the lights on at home for her when she came home from art class.

He would also give her a bottle of hot milk late at night and tell her to go to bed early.

"Mother..."

Thinking of the good memories of the past, my breathing suddenly became rapid.

Her fingers trembled uncontrollably, and to hide her abnormality, she took a big gulp of the beer in her hand.

Alcohol numbed the chaotic brain.

She stared blankly into the distance, and could hear sharp scolding uncontrollably in her ears.

"You are only dragging Xiao Nuan down by living."

"She was the one who killed her parents!"

"That's her! That's her!"

"You're the one who killed us! You should come down to keep us company, come down to keep us company."

Su Manxing looked at the dark sky and seemed to see his parents lying on the morgue bed with bruises on their faces.

"Come down to accompany you..."

She murmured.

"Miss Su?"

Ji Yao, who was standing in the distance, approached Su Manxing at some point.

Su Manxing turned his head mechanically and found that it was Ji Yao, but he turned his head away again.

Ji Yao looked at Su Manxing, who looked a little strange, and was about to speak again. Su Nuanyang, who had been watching Su Manxing from a distance, noticed something was wrong and trotted over.

"elder sister."

"Big brother."

"Well, hello little sister."

Ji Yao didn't stay long after seeing Su Nuanyang who was wary of him. He said something to Li Lili and left the rooftop.

"Sister? What happened?"

Su Nuanyang looked at Su Manxing who was standing there with his head down and spoke in a very cautious tone.

Su Manxing only responded from the harsh voices when she felt her hand being held.

"Xiao Nuan, let's go back. We're out of wine, out of wine."

She clenched the bottle in her hand and murmured.
