Chapter 343 Winning Him Back
Luo Shu leaned back in her chair and ate barbecue, while Yu Zhan went to the side to answer a phone call.
Leng Xichen suddenly appeared, "Why are you all alone?"
"What are you doing here?" Luo Shu handed him some barbecue, but he didn't take it; he didn't like it.
"Come over here and take a look."
As he spoke, he saw Yu Zhan making a phone call not far away.
Leng Xichen felt embarrassed to stay any longer and was about to leave when Luo Shu called him back.
She put the barbecue down and took out her phone to open the pictures.
"Could you take a look at this record player for me? Have you seen it before? I finally managed to find it a few days ago, but it seems to be unusable."
Leng Xichen leaned closer and took a look. "It's an old thing. I bet a lot of the parts are broken. You might as well buy a new one. These days, practically no one knows how to repair these."
Luo Shu was deflated.
Leng Xichen looked at her. "I can take a look for you."
Luo Shu's eyes lit up. "Really? Don't lie to me."
"Try."
"That's great! Here's an address for you. You can go check it out for me when you have time."
Luo Shu sent the address of the apartment where she used to live with Yu Zhan to Leng Xichen.
Yu Zhan glanced at them after finishing his call.
The two spoke in a mysterious manner.
He walked over, and Leng Xichen withdrew his body.
"Are you done with your work?" Yu Zhan asked Leng Xichen.
"Hmm, that's about it."
"Um."
The two fell silent, while Luo Shu was excitedly searching for new record players online.
She was worried that the old record player couldn't be repaired, so she could only find a similar one. Since she had no plans for the time being, she should pay more attention to Yu Zhan.
Leng Xichen: "I'm going back now."
Yu Zhan hummed in agreement and then called him back, "Take these two bath towels with you, for Yuan Chenxi and Wei Qianqian."
They left in a hurry, and the towels they left behind while playing in the water are still hanging on the chair.
Yu Zhan told Leng Xichen his room number, which happened to be on his floor, and then picked it up.
Leng Xichen left, and Luo Shu was still researching the information.
Yu Zhan stared at Luo Shu in silence, his mind elsewhere.
By the time Luo Shu realized what was happening, Leng Xichen had already left, and Yu Zhan was looking at her with a serious expression.
"Did Xi Chen go back?" Luo Shu put away her phone.
"Hmm." Yu Zhan fiddled with the barbecue grill, asking casually, "Want to grill some more?"
"No need, I can't eat anymore." Luo Shu patted her stomach.
Yu Zhan quickly tidied up and took her back to the guesthouse, leaving the rest to the staff who were handling the aftermath.
Yu Zhan walked at the front the whole way without saying a word.
Luo Shu sensed that he was angry. When he was angry, he would ignore people, and he needed to process his anger before coming to find her.
I don't know what he's angry about. He was fine just a moment ago, but his expression seemed to change after Leng Xichen arrived.
Luo Shu followed behind him, but she and Leng Xichen had nothing between them.
Is it because of that phone call just now?
That must be it, otherwise why would he suddenly get angry?
But why ignore her?
"Wait for me..." Luo Shu called out to him from behind.
Yu Zhan's face darkened, but he slowed his pace and waited for her to catch up.
He held a skewer of grilled meat in one hand and his coat in the other, but didn't reach out to take her hand.
Luo Shu reached out and hooked her arm around his.
She didn't want to ask him now; she'd rather wait until they got back to the room.
On Leng Xichen's side, he took two bath towels and dialed the room number that Yu Zhan had just given him.
Wei Qianqian opened the door. She was wearing conservative home clothes, and the smell of alcohol on her face had not yet dissipated.
"Brother Xichen, knocking on a girl's door so late at night," Wei Qianqian said, her cheek pressed against the door.
“…” Leng Xi paused for a moment, then handed her the bath towel.
Wei Qianqian pursed her lips and said thank you.
At that moment, Yuan Chenxi happened to pass by Wei Qianqian. She was wearing a bath towel wrapped around her chest and drying her hair with a towel in her hand, completely unaware that Leng Xichen was outside the door.
Leng Xichen glanced at her, then quickly looked away and turned to leave.
Yuan Chenxi yawned as she lay on the sofa, her half-dry hair hanging from the edge of the sofa.
Yuan Chenxi: "Who is it?"
Wei Qianqian: "Leng Xichen."
Yuan Chenxi jumped up from the sofa and ran out without even putting on her shoes.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Leng Xichen walk into the elevator. The moment the elevator doors closed, Yuan Chenxi saw half of his extremely handsome face.
With just half a face, Yuan Chenxi seemed to have it etched into her mind instantly.
Leng Xichen also saw her, but when he saw her running out of the room barefoot, covering herself with a bath towel, his heart was suddenly touched.
Without hesitation, he closed the elevator doors.
Wei Qianqian is right. It's really not good to knock on a girl's door in the middle of the night.
Yuan Chenxi came out wrapped in a bath towel without even putting on any clothes, which was hardly a good opportunity to meet.
Yuan Chenxi, who had just come out, immediately realized that she had been too hasty and quickly retreated back into her room.
Luckily, Leng Xichen got into the elevator; otherwise, if she went out to call him looking like that, she would have looked like a female hooligan.
Return to the room.
Wei Qianqian: "What, didn't you see him?"
Yuan Chenxi: "It seems like we met, but it also seems like we didn't."
It shouldn't really be considered meeting him, since it was only half a face, not a complete picture. That person must be Leng Xichen, but I can't imagine what Leng Xichen looks like at all.
She planned to go back and draw half of his face. She studied advertising design, so drawing was a natural for her.
Wei Qianqian was confused by what she said, "What do you mean by 'met them, but it seems like we didn't? Did we meet or not?"
"I didn't see him." Yuan Chenxi lay back down on the sofa.
"I think you two must have broken some heavenly law in your past lives, that's why you can never see each other."
Yuan Chenxi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether I see him or not. He contacted me on WeChat a few days ago and asked me to throw away his clothes. I guess he thought they were dirty."
"You threw it away?"
"without."
"Then why are you keeping it?"
"Keep it in case you get pressured to get married."
The two of them laughed out loud.
Leng Xichen's clothes are still somewhat useful.
"But do you know what he said to me? He said: I don't date, don't try to fool your dad with me." Yuan Chenxi sighed.
"And then?" Wei Qianqian turned over and looked at her with great interest.
Yuan Chenxi fiddled with her hair. "Of course I had to listen to him, after all, he was innocent. Then I told my dad that I broke up with him, and you would never guess what my dad said to me."
Wei Qianqian became even more curious.
Yuan Chenxi mimicked her father, saying, "You broke up after being together for less than a month. It must be because you didn't like her."
She frowned. "I'm completely speechless. That old man even wants me to go and win Leng Xichen back."
"Haha..." Wei Qianqian burst into laughter, "Your relationship is so unclear and ambiguous."
"If you're not in a relationship, don't go around spreading rumors..."
Leng Xichen was forced into a relationship and then dumped, which was quite unfair.
Fortunately, they were all acquaintances in this circle, and Leng Xichen understood Yuan Chenxi's intentions and didn't hold it against her. Otherwise, he would definitely have dragged Yuan Chenxi to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Yuan Chenxi suddenly turned her head and asked, "Isn't Leng Xichen very handsome?"
Wei Qianqian: "Oh, Sister Yuan, what do you mean by this?"
"..."
"I'll secretly take some photos for you another day."
Yuan Chenxi: "...There's absolutely no need for that."
