Shopping mall.
"Xiaohe, I see you already have plenty of dyes, drawing paper, and stuff. Why are you buying so much more?"
Jiang Lianyin looked at her, puzzled.
"Hey, isn't Xiao Ning's birthday coming up soon? I want to give her a gift. She's basically read all my sketchbooks, so I want to get her a new one."
An Wanhe took a box of dye from the shelf, carefully put it into the cart, and walked towards the paintbrush section.
"Oh? Xiao Ning's birthday is coming up? How did you know?"
"Didn't Senior Lingxi ask me to draw something the other day? I saw Sister Qiqi holding our files at the time."
“We didn’t know each other on Xiao Ning’s birthday last year, but I thought I had to celebrate it for her this year.”
"oh…"
Lianyin nodded: "How many days until Xiaoning's birthday?"
"Next Monday."
"Holy crap! There are only a few days left! Does anyone else know that Xiao Ning is having her birthday?"
An Wanhe paused for a moment: "It seems... I don't know?"
"???"
"Tell me the truth, or I won't ask you. Are you planning to keep quiet and secretly try to win over Xiao Ning?"
Jiang Lianyin, exasperated, scratched the little painter's itch.
Xiaohe quickly begged for forgiveness: "No, no, I really forgot."
As she spoke, she tried to dodge to the side, but accidentally bumped into someone and fell down.
"hiss…"
"Xiao He, are you alright?" Jiang Lianyin went over to help An Wanhe up, while also looking at the person she had bumped into.
It was a man with a cane. His expression didn't change much. He slowly squatted down and helped Wanhe pick up the things she had dropped.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, sir. I can take care of these things. Are you hurt?"
Wanhe rubbed her bottom and quickly asked the man for directions, but when she saw his face, a familiar feeling arose again.
Have I seen him somewhere before?
Yan Wentao looked up at her, seemingly noticing her confusion:
"We meet again. We met here last time."
As he spoke, he pointed to the paintbrushes on the highest shelf, and An Wanhe instantly remembered:
"Oh! It's you! What a coincidence, sir! You're here to buy paintbrushes too!"
"Hmm... wait, did I hurt you just now?"
Xiao He supported Yan Wentao's arm and helped him up.
After all, the other person was using crutches, so their legs must be in bad shape.
If anything were to happen, she would be tormented by her own conscience.
Yan Wentao looked at her hand and used his cane to stand up again.
Jiang Lianyin picked up all the paintbrushes that had fallen to the ground and asked, somewhat puzzled:
"Xiao He, do you two know each other?"
"Oh! I forgot to introduce you. I met this gentleman last time I came to the mall to buy art supplies for Xiao Ning. He even helped me out back then."
"Oh..." Xiao Lianyin nodded, then suddenly bowed slightly to Yan Wentao: "I'm sorry, sir, my friend has caused you trouble!"
An Wanhe: "???"
Yan Wentao was also slightly taken aback, then waved his hand: "It's nothing."
After saying that, she turned her gaze back to An Wanhe: "Do you still need oil painting brushes?"
"Huh? No, I want to work on comics this time. Doing something like that takes too much time and is too expensive."
"Hmm..." Yan Wentao didn't say anything more, picked up the delivery clip next to him, and took out an oil painting brush:
"Nothing else, I'll be going now..."
"Okay... Hey sir! May I ask your name?"
"Hmm?" The former turned around and glanced at her: "Yan Xi, what about you?"
"An Wanhe!"
"Then we'll meet again someday..."
As Yan Wentao slowly disappeared from sight, Jiang Lianyin suddenly nudged the young painter's arm:
"What's going on with you? Giving your name to strangers like that, aren't you afraid the paparazzi will make it all the rage?"
"Like the exposure of Chen Xing and An Wanhe's relationship?"
"What did you say?!" Xiaohe retorted.
"I just feel that Mr. is a really nice person. Besides, are there any straight people in our group? Aren't they all taken by Xiao Ning..."
An Wanhe blushed inexplicably when her name was mentioned.
"Yes, Chu Moyan isn't straight... isn't she..."
Halfway through her speech, Lianyin also became a little uncertain.
Suddenly, the image of that scumbag woman tying up the shut-up girl and Qu Jianyi popped into my head.
She didn't seem to refuse Xiaowen back then, did she? Although there was an element of coercion, she seemed to enjoy it quite a bit? (Please wait for the extra chapter for more details.)
Thinking of this, Jiang Lianyin sighed. If they hadn't met Yu Jianing, they would probably be quite normal!
...
Meanwhile, Yu Jianing, who was shopping at the farmers' market, suddenly sneezed.
Who's talking badly about me behind my back?
"Um?"
Fu Yachi, who was selecting lean meat, glanced at her, turned around to straighten her clothes, and then buttoned up the large buttons of her cardigan:
"No one is scolding you. The air conditioning in this room is too cold. You're dressed so lightly, you'll catch a cold."
"Uh...hehe..."
Yu Jianing gave an awkward laugh. At such close range, and in public...
To prevent her hands from doing anything strange, she looked out the window.
There's no way around it, Ya Chi's innate attribute is just too much for her!
"Hmm? Grapes?"
Just as she was trying to distract herself, she suddenly noticed a man wearing a hat and looking rather furtive.
Judging from her figure and clothing, she should be Bai Puti. I even patted her butt this morning, so there's no way I could mistake her.
Just as he was about to call out to her, he suddenly noticed that she seemed to be following someone.
