The press conference was followed by a celebration banquet, which Yu Wan declined on the spot.
Upon hearing this, Chen shouted, "Yu Yu, you're a real jerk! You win and then run away. I was planning to get revenge at the dinner table!" He rolled up his sleeves, put his feet on the chair, and imitated the tone of an online game: "Come on, let's have a final showdown!"
The scene remained silent for a good ten seconds.
Yu Wan remained expressionless, her eyes lowered, lazily adjusting her cuffs, pretending not to recognize the person.
In the end, Whis28 couldn't stand it anymore, so he wrapped one arm around his neck and dragged him away, wondering to himself: "We're from the same club, how come the other guy is such a drama queen?"
"Yu Yu, let's have an online showdown from now on..." Chen shouted with difficulty.
Yu Wan felt ashamed and didn't even lift her head.
After she changed her clothes and came out of the stadium, Meng Shen was already waiting in the parking lot. He eagerly stepped forward, gesturing with his hands and asking, "Where's the autograph? Did you get it?"
Without saying a word, Yu Wan put the baseball cap she was holding on his head.
"Could it be...?" Meng Shen froze, quickly taking off his hat to take a look. As a die-hard fan, he recognized it at a glance, his breathing instantly becoming heavy, and his voice trembling: "Is this the hat Chen wore this afternoon?"
Yu Wan gave a casual "hmm".
This news took Meng Shen several minutes to process. Then, he excitedly kissed the hat a few times, held it in his hands like a precious treasure, and kept giggling, his eyes practically sparkling.
Yu Wan: "..."
The saying "You get the kind of fans you have based on your idols" is absolutely true!
My friend is silly enough as it is, will he become even more mentally challenged in the future?
Suddenly I feel a little worried.
Just then, my phone suddenly vibrated.
Yu Wan looked down.
[Tang Yue: I've arrived at the stadium entrance, where are you guys?]
She sent her location.
Before long, Tang Yue found them.
He looked at Meng Shen with a puzzled expression, raised his chin, and casually asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Yu Wan: "It's nothing, I just got a little traumatized and my IQ regressed to prehistoric levels."
"..." Meng Shen glared at her, and subconsciously raised his foot to kick her shin. He only reached halfway before Yu Wan was pulled away by Tang Yue, and he instantly met those cold eyes.
The next moment, a foot gently kicked Tang Yue.
They stared at each other for a few seconds.
"Hehe, my foot slipped, slipped." Meng Shen forced a smile and silently withdrew his foot. Thinking of the chaotic scene that was about to unfold, he simply closed his eyes and silently recited the Great Compassion Mantra.
Tang Yue's eyes were slightly narrowed, his posture was still lazy and casual, but his aura was imposing.
He was genuinely angry.
It is not gentlemanly to touch a girl inappropriately.
My arm was suddenly grabbed by a hand.
Tang Yue followed the slender white fingers upwards, finally landing on that delicate face.
The irritation in my heart vanished in an instant.
"Didn't you say we were going to eat Sichuan food?" Yu Wan pulled him toward the parking lot, her voice soft and indifferent. "I only had a sandwich for lunch, and I'm starving."
Tang Yue's lips curled up in a smile.
-
They arrived at the Sichuan restaurant at 5 p.m., before lunchtime. There were only a few customers scattered around inside, so there was no need to queue.
As soon as Yu Wan sat down, she felt a strong gaze sweep over her.
She turned her head sharply and saw an unfamiliar face.
The girl clearly didn't realize she would turn around. The disdain in her eyes couldn't be concealed in time, and her face became incredibly stiff. She was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head.
baffling.
Yu Wan's eyes flashed with a hint of irritation as she looked away. Just then, her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID, and her irritation intensified.
"I'm going to the restroom."
Meanwhile, on the other side...
"Xia, what's wrong?" the girl sitting opposite Chen Xia asked worriedly. "Your face is so pale, are you feeling unwell?"
Chen Xia forced a smile: "It's nothing, my stomach just suddenly hurts a little. I'll drink some more hot water and I'll be fine."
Under the table, she was clutching her sweater tightly with her fingers.
Even though Yu Wan's gaze was cold and aloof, it still made my hair stand on end.
Such a shameful thing should certainly not be spoken aloud.
Another girl asked, "By the way, how's your practice of that new piece going?"
Facing the envious looks from her friends, Chen Xia proudly raised her chin and said with great enthusiasm, "I've already mastered it."
"Really?"
"Wow, Xia, you're amazing!"
"Let us hear it."
Chen Xia's purpose in coming to the gathering was to show off. She was prepared, but she pretended to reluctantly pick up her phone, opened the audio, and said humbly, "I only saved a small part. If you don't like it, you can tell me."
This was the piece she played most skillfully and best, and it had been praised by several professors at the music academy.
The light, cheerful sound of the violin flowed out, mingling with the music in the restaurant.
Tang Yue frowned, feeling that the melody was very familiar. But before he could listen carefully, the violin music had stopped.
He looked up, his gaze swept around, and he saw the three girls in the corner. He instinctively felt that the voices were coming from that direction.
"Did Yu Xiaowan fall into a pit? Why has she been gone for so long?" Meng Shen muttered to himself. Leaving him and Tang Yue alone was incredibly stressful!
Tang Yue turned on his phone screen and glanced at the time.
Seven minutes have passed.
His aura became even deeper.
"I'm going to take a shower." Meng Shen couldn't help but shiver. He couldn't sit still any longer, so he got up and rushed towards the bathroom, not daring to stay for even a moment longer.
-
Yu made a phone call in the corridor that evening.
"...How much? Let them name their price." She leaned lazily against the windowsill, her brows furrowed, her annoyance evident in her tone.
"Yu Wan, what do you mean?" Zhang Hong's furious voice came through the phone: "She's your mother, and you want to pay her off? Don't you have any conscience? Besides, do you think we're short of those tens of millions?"
Yu Wan raised her hand and rubbed her throbbing temples: "Since you don't want money, don't bother me again."
Zhang Hong was silent for a moment, then angrily scolded, "You are so cold-blooded! She lowered herself to participate in the school anniversary performance, stayed in Jiangcheng, and turned down many jobs for you. Yet you are unwilling to even see her. You are really heartless."
"..."
Yu Wan suddenly found it ridiculous; the last vestige of her conviction vanished in that instant, leaving her utterly disappointed.
That woman abandoned her for her dreams back then, and now she refuses to see her in public to maintain her good reputation. How selfish, ironic, and ridiculous!
Her tone became indifferent: "If she really wanted to see me, why never did she come to me in person? Oh, I know, she's afraid of being discovered by the media, which would expose that unknown dark history of hers."
When the truth was exposed, Zhang Hong was speechless.
Yu Wan scoffed lightly: "If Miss Zhang has other things to say, let's continue talking to my lawyer."
After hanging up the phone, she turned around and was surprised to see Meng Shen behind her, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't.
