Bai Ye was on the verge of tears. He had originally planned to be a scumbag who took advantage of a girl's feelings, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
It's bad, but not completely bad, and my heart softens.
Yao Yuyan had regained her composure: "Come eat with me."
"No……"
Yao Yuyan smiled slightly at him: "You can refuse, but I will come to see you again the next day. If you don't want me to come to see you every day, you'd better agree."
What was originally a beautiful smile instantly became a hellish smile in Bai Ye's eyes.
Bai Ye smiled wryly: "Miss, please don't make things difficult for me. What exactly do you want?"
"I don't want to do anything, I just want to express my apology."
"So you'll let me go after we finish eating, right?"
Bai Ye wished that this would really happen so he could stay far away from her.
Yao Yuyan winked playfully: "Guess?"
Although it was very beautiful, Bai Ye had no time to appreciate it.
Bai Ye: You're such a fool! How come I never realized you were so annoying before!
Bai Ye no longer knew how to face her.
"But I can promise I won't come looking for you tomorrow."
Bai Ye's eyes lit up. That's great! I'll go straight back to my dorm after class the day after tomorrow and not go out again.
"I'm fine with going out to eat, but we have to split the bill, otherwise I won't go."
Bai Ye didn't want to be kept anymore. Admittedly, Bai Ye had been eating and drinking well over the past year and had gained a lot of weight, all thanks to this young lady.
After all, one of the young lady's hobbies is inviting her friends to enjoy delicious food.
Bai Ye, as the fake boyfriend, is often taken care of.
It's said that the young lady treated him very well, except in matters of the heart.
Yao Yuyan smiled and said, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
Her eyes sparkled, and she was in a great mood.
Bai Ye's lips twitched. Remembering how extravagant this young lady usually was with money, he changed his mind and said, "You decide... Don't spend too much, or I can't afford it."
Yao Yuyan opened her mouth as if to say that she had already paid for it, but she was afraid that Bai Ye would refuse to go no matter what, so she could only go along with him.
"good."
...
Two people sat facing each other in a crab hot pot restaurant.
Bai Ye was tense all over, not wanting to look at the girl in front of him, and could only look down at his phone.
Yao Yuyan clenched her small fist, wanting to say something, but not daring to disturb him.
This moment felt so familiar to her, because in the past, when the two of them went out to eat, she would always look at her phone and look forward to Gu Yanzhi's response, while Bai Ye would eat quietly without disturbing her.
Was he just like I am now back then?
Yao Yuyan blinked and suggested, "Let's eat first, then play later?"
Bai Ye looked up and saw her action, his face flushed red.
Yao Yuyan has a strangely adorable quality to her.
That's a bit of a foul, Miss!
"Okay." Bai Ye replied and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
Actually, he didn't look at anything; he just didn't want to look at her, otherwise he would feel inexplicably awkward.
Although the two often ate together, Bai Ye would usually steal glances at her, as if afraid of disturbing her. But now that they had broken up, Bai Ye felt he had to keep some distance, and he definitely couldn't keep stealing glances like before.
But the girl across from me is so pretty, I can't help but feel restless if I don't look at her, so I can only distract myself with my phone.
Yao Yuyan reached out her chopsticks and put a piece of crab meat into his bowl: "Eat here, this place is delicious."
Bai Ye was slightly taken aback, not expecting her to do this.
Moreover, Yao Yuyan was using the same chopsticks she had just used, and did not use new serving chopsticks to put food in his bowl.
You see, in the past, when Bai Ye saw Yao Yuyan looking down at her phone and forgetting to eat, he would put some food in her bowl. Although Yao Yuyan was busy, she would eat everything that was put in her bowl. Over time, Bai Ye got used to putting food in her bowl.
But Bai Ye was still very self-aware, and always used serving chopsticks to serve him food. After all, the two were just a fake couple, and it would be too intimate for them to actually feed each other, which was not something that ordinary relationships could do.
Although Bai Ye also wanted to make intimate gestures, he was very careful because the other person wasn't interested in him and he was afraid of offending them.
Now, Yao Yuyan's every move is strange, after all, this is the first time he has ever enjoyed being served food by her.
If it were him in the past, he probably would have jumped for joy long ago. Thinking back to his previous love-struck state, Bai Ye felt incredibly embarrassed.
Bai Ye asked casually, "How is Gu Yanzhi doing lately?"
He wanted to know what the other person was thinking. Having liked Gu Yanzhi for so many years, the shock of learning that Gu Yanzhi had someone he liked was undoubtedly huge.
Bai Ye didn't want to bring up the past or reopen old wounds, but Yao Yuyan's current attitude was really too strange.
Yao Yuyan said somewhat calmly, "He and his girlfriend get along very well."
Bai Ye's hand holding the chopsticks paused.
The eyes are the windows to the soul; he had been staring into her eyes the whole time she was speaking.
In the past, Yao Yuyan's eyes would light up whenever Gu Yanzhi was mentioned.
But now, just as she said, her face is expressionless, and her eyes no longer gleam with any special light.
Has she let go? Has she found peace? Or is she still holding onto hope?
It's impossible for love to turn into hate, right?
But it's none of his business anymore; whether she's forgiven or not is no longer relevant to him.
All I can say is that I wish her to truly let go of the past and find her true love.
After they finished speaking, neither of them said anything more.
The atmosphere became extremely heavy, with only the sounds of conversation and eating emanating from the neighboring tables.
Yao Yuyan went to the restroom halfway through, and when she came back, Bai Ye had already finished eating.
He didn't know why he always felt someone was watching him while eating, but when he looked around he couldn't find anything and could only scratch his head in confusion.
Seeing that she had almost finished eating, the two decided to leave.
Bai Ye went to the bar to pay the bill and leave.
But the bartender said, "This lady has already paid."
Bai Ye looked at the young lady whose gaze was somewhat evasive.
The two left the store and headed towards the first floor of the mall.
Bai Ye said, "How much? I'll transfer it to you."
"No need, I..."
Bai Ye looked at her seriously: "We agreed to split the bill."
"Then add me on WeChat and transfer the money to me." Yao Yuyan's eyes were filled with expectation.
Bai Ye frowned: "Just show me your QR code, I'll transfer the money to you."
"No, you have to add me."
Yao Yuyan also refused righteously and firmly.
The two looked at each other, neither wanting to back down.
Bai Ye looked exhausted: "What exactly do you want?"
Bai Ye said in a low voice, "We've already broken up, so let's stop bothering each other, okay? It's better for both of us."
The voice was very soft because there were too many people in the mall, and Bai Ye spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Yao Yuyan's voice choked again: "But we were just a fake couple. Now that we've broken up, does that mean we can't be friends?"
Bai Ye was about to say yes, but the girl's eyes started to moisten again.
Bai Ye had to swallow her words.
"That's not what I meant, what I meant was..."
Bai Ye was caught in a dilemma, unsure how to explain it.
"I'm asking you, after a year of spending every day together, can't we even be considered friends?"
The girl's tearful appearance made him speechless again.
Bai Ye could only go along with her words: "Of course, we're friends!"
Yao Yuyan rolled her bright eyes, her eyebrows curving slightly: "Can't friends even have each other's contact information?"
"I...can!"
Bai Ye felt somewhat aggrieved.
Yao Yuyan's bright eyes dimmed slightly: "Then why don't you want to add me? Or... do you really hate me that much?"
"no."
"That……"
"Stop talking, I'll add it!"
Bai Ye completely gave in. He couldn't stand women pretending to be pitiful, especially when a girl looked like she was about to cry. It made Bai Ye think he really was a scumbag who started something and then abandoned it.
