"I'm having a get-together with my classmates, don't call and bother me!"
Xiao Yao hung up on Xiao Yao immediately, put her phone on silent, and didn't dare to look up at the second floor again.
During this period, Xiao Yao had been avoiding Zhong Xuyang.
In the immediate period after the breakup, she was calm and open with Zhong Xuyang, not deleting him on WeChat, not blocking his phone number, and not afraid to meet him.
But after going on two blind dates with him and learning that he was deliberately trying to please her mother and get close to her brother, she is now feeling uneasy.
She thought Zhong Xuyang had moved on from the past and started a new life, but she never expected that he had done so many things behind her back.
Xiao Yao felt like she was a little lamb, while Zhong Xuyang was a wolf lurking in the grass. The sense of crisis that she didn't know when he would devour her made her so uneasy that she dared not see him.
Moreover, she clearly felt that Zhong Xuyang was now getting closer and closer to her.
Before, he would ask her out on WeChat, and if she didn't come out, he would ask her out again another day. Now, he drives his car directly to her building and then sends her a WeChat message, ending with "I'm waiting for you downstairs."
When Liu Yan and Xiao Guowei saw this, they asked her what was going on, but she couldn't explain, so she was forced to go out with Zhong Xuyang several times.
Not only that, Liu Yan said that she had called Zhong Xuyang's mother before and subtly expressed that Xiao Yao and Zhong Xuyang were not suitable for each other. However, the next day, Zhong Xuyang called Liu Yan and directly stated that he liked Xiao Yao and wanted to pursue her.
Xiao Yao is now truly afraid of Zhong Xuyang, but she doesn't know what to do with him.
"That little vixen dared to hang up on me! I'll tell my parents when I get back that she came to the bar to look at men today!" Xiao Yao said angrily, holding up his phone.
Zhong Xuyang calmly advised, "She's so grown up, don't tell her uncle and aunt."
Xiao Yao chuckled and teased, "Now you're taking her side? Who was it that angrily made me make that call just now?"
"Brother, what's my advice on how to win her back?"
That "brother" really touched Xiao Yao's heart. To be honest, he genuinely admired Zhong Xuyang, not because of his investment, but because Zhong Xuyang was indeed outstanding in every aspect.
When Zhong Xuyang said he wanted to invest in his project, he had asked around to see if Zhong Xuyang was reliable. Everyone he knew had a positive opinion of Zhong Xuyang. In the few months they had known each other, he had seen that Zhong Xuyang was decisive and capable at work, humble and composed in his dealings with others, and never flirted with women when he went out for social events. So when Zhong Xuyang explained that his breakup with Xiao Yao was just a misunderstanding and that he had never done anything to wrong Xiao Yao, he believed him.
Seeing Zhong Xuyang's focused gaze on Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao patted his shoulder and said, "Even my parents can't handle Xiao Yao when she gets stubborn. You'll just have to spend more time and effort dealing with her."
Zhong Xuyang gave a soft "hmm," swirling his wine glass without shifting his gaze.
Xiao Yao wore a square-neck black top today, her delicate, deep collarbones and the large expanse of snow-white skin below them were particularly eye-catching. The close-fitting fabric outlined her beautiful curves, and her slightly flared jeans made her legs look slender and long.
She didn't reveal anything, yet her feminine charm and allure were fully displayed, exuding an indescribable seductive allure.
Zhong Xuyang's Adam's apple bobbed, and he took a sip of wine to suppress a certain urge that was about to surface.
He watched as Xiao Yao huddled in the corner of the booth to avoid his gaze.
Zhong Xuyang sighed silently.
He knew she was avoiding him, and he knew he shouldn't pressure her, but he had no choice. She was ready to start a new life, and he couldn't wait any longer.
Someone called Zhong Xuyang from inside the private room. He took one last deep look at Xiao Yao before turning his gaze back to his seat.
Xiao Yao knew that Zhong Xuyang was also at the bar, and she became somewhat absent-minded, suddenly losing the carefree mood she had before.
Just as they were wondering whether they should leave early, several tall and handsome men suddenly came to their booth.
Xiao Yao paused for a moment before remembering that these were the male models they had selected.
One for each person, and the last one given to Xiao Yao was a little boy who looked like a high school student.
Xiao Yao scanned the male model from head to toe. He was quite tall and burly, but his face looked very small.
"Are you an adult?" Xiao Yao asked.
The male model thought Xiao Yao was flirting with him, and skillfully played along, "Do you need me to show you my ID, sister?"
"If possible." Xiao Yao was serious; she didn't want to be caught.
The male model chuckled, "Don't worry, sister, your brother won't let you break the law. Just have fun."
Then he took the empty wine glass from the table, poured two glasses of wine, and handed one to Xiao Yao, saying, "Sister, let's have a drink."
The male model lightly touched Xiao Yao's wine glass, then tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.
Xiao Yao took a small sip and was about to put down her glass when the male model held the bottom of her glass and said, "Sister, we can't keep fish in our glass."
Xiao Yao had no choice but to close her eyes and finish the drink.
Then, as soon as she put down her wine glass, the male model immediately got up and refilled it for her.
Xiao Yao knew that the male models received a commission from the drinks they ordered, but she didn't want to drink anymore. She took the glass and played with it in her hand.
Seeing that Xiao Yao didn't want to drink, the male model started chatting with her, "Sister, do you come here often?"
Xiao Yao nodded and answered haphazardly, "Yes, I come here often."
"Really? How come I didn't see it before?"
"Maybe you're with the other girls."
The male model leaned forward, placing one hand on Xiao Yao's side, and asked, "Then next time you come to visit, I'll accompany you too, okay?"
