Chapter 68: Floating Green
After the two came in, they found a relatively remote place to stay.
Li Muzi picked up a plate and took a small cake from the table. She really wanted to take a few more to taste, but she was embarrassed. Didn’t you see that no one was taking any food?
Xue Miaoyun was not polite. She took two and tasted them. They were too sweet. Seeing that Li Muzi was eating them with relish, she gave her the one on her plate.
"Huh?" Li Muzi looked up with a puzzled look.
"It's too sweet." Xue Miaoyun has never lacked sugar in her two lives. There is still a lot of white sugar, brown sugar, milk candy, and fructose in her space.
So except for the time when he first came to this world and was addicted to sweets due to the original owner's physical condition, he didn't like things that were too sweet at other times.
Chinese people at this time are still very short of sugar, so the standard for delicious pastries and cakes is that they must be sweet enough.
"Really? It's not sweet." Li Muzi took a bite and felt it was just right.
"It's a matter of taste. I never like overly sweet tastes." Xue Miaoyun ate a cake with difficulty. After all, she couldn't waste it even if she didn't like it.
"My classmate, are these cakes not to your taste?" Just as Xue Miaoyun swallowed the last bite of cake with difficulty and was about to drink a sip of water to get rid of the greasiness, a man dressed very flashily appeared in front of her.
Pink shirt, white suit, but unfortunately her appearance is not very good. It’s not that she is ugly, but she is afraid of comparison. Xue Miaoyun remembered that in her previous life, there was a character in a TV series who also liked to dress like this, but the person was very good-looking and it was pleasing to the eye.
"Who are you?" Xue Miaoyun really wanted to say that it was really rude to appear so suddenly.
"I'm Xiao Yixiao, the initiator of this social gathering." The man spoke gently, but everyone could see the arrogance in his eyes.
"Senior, are you a student of B University?" Li Muzi came over and asked curiously.
"Yes," Xiao Yixiao glanced at Li Muzi and said in a good manner, "I am a senior this year and will graduate soon. This party is also a way of saying goodbye."
Xiao Yixiao glanced at Xue Miaoyun and asked, "What grade are the two junior sisters in?"
"We are freshmen." Li Muzi's eyes sparkled, his attitude was enthusiastic, and he asked a lot of questions.
Xiao Yixiao answered them one by one and seemed very patient.
When Xue Miaoyun saw Li Muzi like this, she knew that she was attracted to him, but when she looked at the watch on Xiao Yixiao's wrist, she frowned.
"What's the name of this junior sister? I noticed that she doesn't like the cakes here very much. I have been ordering cakes from this store before. If she doesn't suit my taste, I will change to another store next time." Xiao Yixiao looked at Xue Miaoyun with a determined look. He was always confident that there was no girl he couldn't pursue.
From the moment the girl walked in, Xiao Yixiao noticed her, or rather, many men at the party noticed her and followed her with their eyes. Just seeing him coming over to say hello, no one else dared to come forward.
Xue Miaoyun frowned and said politely, "Thank you for your courtesy, Senior. It's delicious."
"Yes, yes, it's delicious." Li Muzi nodded in support. She really thought it was delicious.
However, Xiao Yixiao had no intention of giving up, or maybe he just wanted to talk to Xue Miaoyun more.
"Just now, when I saw my junior sister having a hard time eating, I thought the cake was not sweet but bitter." Xiao Yixiao said jokingly.
"No, Senior Xiao, Miaoyun just doesn't like food that is too sweet." Li Muzi saw the impatience in Xue Miaoyun's eyes and felt a little disappointed. She was not a fool and naturally saw that Senior Xiao probably liked Miaoyun.
It's a pity that Luofu is married, and although she thinks Senior Xiao is quite handsome, she can't say against her conscience that he is better than Cang Ling. So even if she could see that Senior Xiao liked Miaoyun, she would not think that it was Xue Miaoyun who seduced her.
"Really?" Xiao Yixiao looked at Xue Miaoyun's clothes and the jade bracelet on her hand, and knew that this schoolmate must have an extraordinary background. The attitude is much more equal.
"I didn't think it through. Everyone has different tastes. I don't really like sweets. But this shop is said to be very popular, and the feedback from my classmates was also very good. So I always order from this shop."
Xue Miaoyun could naturally feel the change in Xiao Yixiao, and felt quite bored.
"Some of Zhou Ji's snacks are like this. If they are not specially customized, the flavors will be more popular among the general public." Xue Miaoyun has eaten Zhou Ji's cakes and snacks. They were bought by Cang Ling. He naturally knew her taste and would not buy such sweet ones.
Xiao Yixiao was sure that this junior girl must come from a prominent family. If Zhou Ji wants specially made dim sum, he has to be a regular customer, and the price will not be cheap.
"Indeed, but I only found out about this social gathering a few days ago. It wasn't originally organized in this style. It's not easy to communicate over a Chinese-style meal, so I changed it to a Western-style cocktail party so that everyone can communicate more easily." Xiao Yixiao's tone was full of pride.
"That will cost a lot of money." Li Muzi looked around.
"It doesn't matter. Money is not a problem. The most important thing is that everyone has fun."
Li Muzi also realized at this time that this man was showing them his financial strength. No, not to them, but to Miaoyun.
"Junior, do you like Zhou Ji's specific dim sum? I'm also a regular customer of Zhou Ji. Today's dim sum doesn't suit your taste. I'll send you some more that you'll like tomorrow as an apology." Xiao Yixiao looked at Xue Miaoyun, his eyes clearly expressing the meaning of 'I like you'.
Xue Miaoyun didn't have any special emotions. "No need. My husband thought I liked to eat them so he often bought them for me. But I don't really like cakes and other things."
Xue Miaoyun deliberately emphasized the word "husband".
"Husband, you, you are married?" Xiao Yixiao's first reaction was disbelief. With his keen eyesight, he could clearly tell that this school girl was not very old. What's more important is that she is too clean and doesn't look like a married woman at all.
"Yes, a military marriage." Xue Miaoyun smiled politely, and her expression became much more real when she talked about Cang Ling.
A gloomy look flashed across Xiao Yixiao's eyes.
Li Muzi lowered her head to hide the smile on her lips. She thought Miaoyun was really handsome. Handsome without leaving any room for error.
"Muzi, I'm a little tired and want to go back. Do you want to stay for a while or go with me?" Xue Miaoyun felt bored and wanted to leave.
"Of course I'll go back with you. It's my fault. I had to drag you here." That's why I met such a guy.
"Then we'll take our leave first, Senior Xiao." Xue Miaoyun nodded to Xiao Yixiao, and then left very decisively.
Xiao Yixiao did not try to persuade them to stay and watched their backs as they left.
"What's wrong, Yixiao? I didn't keep anyone."
Xiao Yixiao glanced at his childhood friend and didn't say anything.
