"Chu Mo, thank you!"
Shu Xiaoya's pretty face flushed slightly, and she looked very embarrassed.
"It's okay. You help me slap my ex-girlfriend in the face, and I'll be your shield. It's a win-win situation."
Chu Mo didn't take it to heart, treating it purely as mutual help between friends.
Besides, she's such a beauty, it doesn't seem like I'd be at a disadvantage if I pretended to be her boyfriend.
"I felt much more relaxed once the news got back to the school."
Shu Xiaoya smiled sweetly, and her mood instantly brightened.
"Chu Mo, Xiao Ya is so beautiful, pretending to be her boyfriend is a great job. If you do well, you might even be able to get a permanent position."
Xia Yu covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Xiaoyu, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't talk to you anymore."
Shu Xiaoya blushed deeply, her entire face turning red with embarrassment. After speaking, she secretly glanced at Chu Mo.
She breathed a slight sigh of relief after noticing his calm expression.
Right now, she only sees Chu Mo as a friend; she doesn't think she likes him.
At most, I have... some goodwill towards her.
She had previously worried that her behavior might cause the other party to misunderstand.
Now it seems I was overthinking things; the other person acted very calmly.
This surprised her somewhat.
Although she was never arrogant about her appearance, she was well aware of how attractive she was to boys.
But Chu Mo remained calm and composed, which immediately increased her favor towards him.
At the very least, the other person isn't a superficial person who only cares about looks.
Meanwhile, Chu Mo was driving and playfully bickering with Xia Yu.
Before long, the group arrived at the entrance of a luxurious KTV.
After Chu Mo parked the car, he followed the two to a private room on the third floor.
Just as Shu Xiaoya was about to push the door open and go in, Xia Yu reached out and stopped her.
"Shouldn't you be holding hands when you go in? You're a couple, how can you lie like this?"
Chu Mo looked utterly helpless.
"Sister, couples don't necessarily have to hold hands all the time, do they?"
"Pshaw, are they a couple? They're an old married couple, always showing off their love. That's how young people date, don't you understand?"
Xia Yu rolled her eyes at him in disgust, then grabbed Shu Xiaoya's hand and shoved it into his.
Only then did he arrogantly push open the door to the private room and stride in.
Chu Mo felt as if he were holding a smooth, delicate piece of soft jade, as soft as if it had no bones.
The feel shouldn't be too good.
To be honest, at this moment he was actually a little grateful to Xia Yu, that fierce girl.
Well done!
At this moment, Shu Xiaoya almost lowered her head to her chest, her beautiful face flushed, and her heart was pounding like a deer.
Chu Mo's hands were dry and warm, giving her a strange feeling.
She had wanted to pull her hand back, but somehow she managed to hold back.
This was the first time she had been so close to a man since she became an adult.
She felt her cheeks burning and her heart pounding very fast.
"Let's go in."
To avoid embarrassment, Chu Mo tried his best to appear as natural as possible.
"oh."
Shu Xiaoya blushed and followed behind him with her head down, letting him lead her.
The room was clearly bustling, but the moment the two entered, an eerie silence descended.
All eyes were fixed on the two people's tightly clasped hands.
Chu Mo could see the astonishment, resentment, and jealousy in their eyes...
He didn't pay any attention and pulled Shu Xiaoya to a corner to sit down.
He then let go of the girl's hand and considerately poured her a glass of coconut juice.
Shu Xiaoya smiled shyly at him and immediately breathed a deep sigh of relief.
She was so nervous just now.
"It's okay, just be natural."
Chu Mo whispered comforting words in her ear, his warm breath on her earlobe making her blush even more.
A pretty girl wearing glasses walked towards Chu Mo with a smile.
"Hello, my name is Xiao Lanlan, welcome to my birthday party."
Chu Mo replied politely, and seeing that she was drinking beer, he toasted her again.
As soon as I finished drinking and sat down, several other girls came over laughing and joking.
"Handsome guy, you've got some skills to snatch away the campus belle of Shu University. I'll toast you."
A round-faced girl picked up her wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, and exuded a bold and unrestrained air.
Chu Mo laughed and drank a cup with him.
Then came the second... the third...
Chu Mo could tell that these girls were just joking around and didn't actually want to get him drunk.
Therefore, they drank the wine in one gulp without any hesitation.
He was handsome, had a good temperament, spoke pleasantly, and was a generous drinker. Before long, he won the favor of several girls.
People would occasionally make lighthearted jokes about him and Shu Xiaoya.
This scene made the other boys very agitated and unhappy.
Yang Peng was furious, his face darkening as if someone owed him money and wouldn't pay it back.
After adjusting his lower body muscles, he picked up a basket of beer, walked up to Chu Mo, and said in a deliberately bold tone:
"Brother, what kind of man drinks with a woman? Let me drink with you."
After saying that, he opened a bottle of beer, downed it in one gulp, then casually wiped the beer stains from the corner of his mouth, staring at him with a provocative look.
"Good, Young Master Yang has a good capacity for alcohol."
"Brother Peng is awesome!"
The other boys also gathered around, and seeing Yang Peng's dashing appearance, they all cheered loudly for him.
Chu Mo couldn't help but find it amusing.
He just drank a beer; if you didn't know better, you'd think he'd drunk pesticide.
The beer at KTV is already low in alcohol content, so as long as his urinary tract is clear, he can drink until dawn.
He didn't say anything, but downed two beers in one go without even burping.
Then he quietly watched Yang Peng.
Shu Xiaoya was a little worried and couldn't help but take his hand and comfort him:
"Chu Mo, don't drink too much. What if you get drunk?"
"Don't worry, it's alright."
Chu Mo smiled gently, then took the other person's small hand and gently rubbed it.
Shu Xiaoya's pretty face turned red, but she did not struggle to pull away.
Yang Peng was so angry his eyes were practically spitting fire, and his internal organs were about to explode.
With a gloomy face, he took a deep breath and forcefully opened two bottles of beer.
He didn't believe the other person could outdrink him.
