"No, I have a dinner date with her tomorrow."

He Yan looked at the complacent Zhang Chenyang and spoke in a pretentious manner.

"Ah? Brother He, you finally took action!"

Zhang Chenyang was confused at first, then surprised, and spoke with great joy.

"Yeah, well, let's not talk about it for now."

He Yan looked at the chubby Zhang Chenyang and hung up the phone.

Although he seemed very confident, the emotion in his eyes after hanging up the phone was not as calm as he appeared.

I don’t know why Xie Manxing asked him out?

He Yan couldn't help but tap the table and think.

Soon it was the next evening.

Xie Manxing looked at He Yan, who had arrived at the restaurant earlier than her, smiled and sat down.

"Sorry for the long wait."

"No full stars, I came too early."

He Yan looked at Xie Manxing, who had dressed up specially, and spoke unnaturally.

He didn't expect that Xie Manxing would even put on makeup and wear a skirt.

Although Xie Manxing usually looks good, this special outfit makes him look a little embarrassed.

If he had known earlier, he would have packed it better.

In fact, He Yan was being too self-deprecating. Although he didn't wear a suit on purpose, his clothes were not shabby either.

The advantages are there, and it looks cool even in a sack.

The two of them were among the handsome men and beautiful women in the crowd, and they attracted a lot of attention in the restaurant.

"He Yan, what do you want to eat? Or do you have any dietary restrictions? I've been here a few times and the food here seems pretty good."

It was Xie Manxing’s first time eating alone with a boy, and she was so nervous that she almost got stuck on her words.

As he said this, he hurriedly handed the menu to He Yan.

"I don't have any dietary restrictions, you can order the full star."

She looked at He Yan who handed her the menu again.

Suddenly I realized that if the two of them continued to be so polite, they might not even be able to finish their meal.

He didn't refuse anymore and quickly ordered a few moderately priced dishes, including both meat and vegetables.

"Manxing, what do you want to say by inviting me to dinner?"

While waiting for the food to be served, He Yan looked at Xie Manxing sitting opposite him and couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

"Well~ He Yan, I have been hiding something from you, but I didn't mean to. Now I want to tell you."

Xie Manxing looked at He Yan and asked directly, rubbing his fingers for a while and decided to tell him now.

"Manxing, you say, I will definitely not be angry."

He Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but his emotions did not fluctuate much.

"I'm Xianxing."

"What?"

He asked back in disbelief when he heard this.

Is that what he meant?

"I'm Xianxing from the Oasis. When I agreed to share the token, I didn't think it would be you. I guessed it later by chance."

Xie Manxing looked at He Yan and saw that he didn't say anything after she finished speaking, feeling a little uneasy.

Are you angry?

They were both silent for a long time before He Yan spoke.

"Manxing, so... you know I like you?"

As he spoke, he slowly raised his head, his eyes fixed on Xie Manxing's face.

When he heard Xie Manxing's words and thought of his usual arrogant behavior in the game, he suddenly felt guilty.

My brain subconsciously recalled the conversation between the two that day.

Who is Xie Manxing secretly in love with?

Xie Manxing met He Yan's burning eyes and clenched his hands tightly under the table.

"Yes, I also have a crush on someone. He's very outstanding, and I didn't dare to disturb him, but just yesterday I found out what he was thinking."

He Yan's heart beat faster and faster when he heard this.

"This made me, the most timid person in my life, make a decision. I asked him out for dinner."

Now not only He Yan opposite was nervous, but Xie Manxing's hands under the table were almost twisted into a doughnut with nervousness.

"He Yan, you should understand what I'm saying now. If you regret it, you can..." leave.

Before she could finish her words, He Yan interrupted her.

"Manxing, I won't regret it."

"I'm glad that you like me too, and we didn't miss each other. Will you be my girlfriend?"

He Yan took out a ring from his bag and handed it to Xie Manxing.

"you......"

She looked at the ring in front of her, hesitant to speak, not knowing what to say.

But He Yan seemed to guess what she was thinking and explained with a chuckle.

"I thought it would be useful someday, so I kept it with me."

Xie Manxing looked at He Yan, whose eyes were filled with smiles, and silently extended his hand.

"My pleasure, boyfriend."

The two confirmed their relationship after a meal here.

Although it may seem fast to outsiders, it is too slow for both of them.

After dinner, the two of them were walking along the street. Xie Manxing waved his hands and looked curiously at He Yan who was walking in the driveway.

"He Yan, when did you have a crush on me?"

"If Manxing is curious, why don't you come with me to a place?"

He Yan looked at Xie Manxing's eyes that seemed to be filled with stars, and noticed that they were still a few minutes away from the apartment, so he invited him.

Xie Manxing nodded with a little curiosity and did not refuse.

"I think my love for you started at the beginning of the school year."

On the way, He Yan took Xie Manxing's hand and talked slowly while looking at the road.

"At that time, you were a senior from the previous class, welcoming the new students. You looked very cool and professional."

"But that night I unexpectedly saw you calling the kitten softly in the woods in a gentle voice."

He Yan seemed to be back to that night whenever he spoke.

"Later, I often showed up there and noticed that you really liked feeding the kitten. Over time, I started feeding it too."

"I've been paying more and more attention to you. As I've been paying more and more attention to you, I've discovered that you're very good, have excellent grades, and are always praised by teachers."

"I just watched over it quietly for about half a year. Then, someone hurt the little orange cat, and its hind legs were seriously injured. You happened to be in the next province to participate in a competition. I was worried that something might happen to the kitten, so I adopted it."

When Xie Manxing heard this distant memory, he also gradually remembered it.

"You left that letter!"

She said in surprise.

She remembered that after she returned to school, she went to look for the kitten but couldn't find it. She only saw a letter where the kitten had appeared.

The letter said that he had adopted the kitten, and if you also wanted to adopt one, you could call him.

Although Xie Manxing likes kittens, she has always lived in the dormitory. Now that the kittens have a good home, she no longer cares about them.

She hadn't looked at the phone for so long that she didn't realize the number was He Yan's.

"right."

He Yan looked at the surprised Xie Manxing and nodded slightly.

"So was that the reason for the warning?"

Xie Manxing remembered his sharp inquiries in the past.

"Yes, after I took the kitten to the hospital, the doctor said that the situation looked man-made."

"Later, I took the trouble to investigate and found out it was a student from the same major. Persuasion was futile, so when he abused animals again, I led Zhang Chenyang to beat him up."

He Yan said this embarrassedly.

Although what he did was a good thing, there was clearly a better way at the time.

But at that time, he looked at the man's fur being peeled off and his big blood-red eyes filled with tears, and he couldn't help but beat him up.
