It's a dog.
Shen Yanxin smiled and radiated a warm, goddess-like glow.
"Waaah..."
Mu Yingying's eyes widened, and she turned to look at Shen Yanxin, letting out a wronged sob, daring not to speak her anger.
"Hey...did you get your lines wrong?"
Xia Che's lips twitched.
It's quite a contrast that he said the other person was a dog with such a gentle expression, isn't it?
"To be honest, she's a dog."
Shen Yanxin's smile remained unchanged, but a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Seeing this, Mu Yingying dared not say another word. It seemed that Shen Yanxin was still angry, so she decided to keep quiet, otherwise she might get another beating...
"You two had a fight, didn't you?"
Xia Che touched his nose, then smiled and waved to Mu Yingying, "I know you, your name is Mu Yingying. If I remember correctly, you two should be good friends, right?"
Every female protagonist will have a close and devoted best friend randomly appear by her side; this is a rule.
Mu Yingying also appeared in the original work and had a considerable amount of screen time, but because she fell into the hands of Li Junyang, who took any woman he saw, in the later part of the comic, in order not to become an enemy of her best friend, Mu Yingying sadly withdrew and went to Tibet, choosing to fade out of everyone's sight.
Mu Yingying was also criticized by comic readers as a "loser" for not even fighting for the male lead and simply handing him over to someone else, which drew a lot of ridicule.
Only Xia Che knew that Mu Yingying was a very good girl.
The culprit who turned these two best friends into a tragic estrangement from each other for life is Li Junyang.
Without him, these two best friends would have continued to be close, and their friendship might have lasted until they died.
Therefore, Xia Che had a very good impression of this girl, and now that he had met her in person, his eyes softened.
"Huh? You actually know me?"
Mu Yingying pointed to herself with an incredulous expression.
She never expected that the school's big brother would remember her. Before coming here, Mu Yingying had imagined meeting Xia Che countless times in her mind. She subconsciously thought that a big brother like him would definitely talk in a cocky way, and might even be smoking a cigarette and asking her, the pretty girl, which class she was in.
When they met in person, they found that although Xia Che looked a bit fierce and had dyed his hair blonde, his eyes and tone were surprisingly gentle.
She had only ever seen this kind of gentleness in Li Junyang.
"Yes, I've seen you a few times at school, and everyone in the senior year knows how close you and Shen Yanxin are, right?"
Seeing the questioning look in Shen Yanxin's eyes, Xia Che smiled and gave an impeccable answer.
"That's true... Xiaoxin and I are the best of friends in the world, everyone knows that!"
Mu Yingying's expression instantly brightened, her previous gloom vanished, and even her eyes lit up. "Right? Be careful."
"After all, I love dogs, so of course I want to treat you well."
Shen Yanxin's pretty face flushed slightly, and she turned her head to look to the side. Even a blind man could see that she was not being sincere.
"You called me a dog again, that's so mean!"
"Should we let Xia Che hear what you've been doing all this time?"
"...Then I'd better not. I'm a dog, woof woof."
"Pfft."
Shen Yanxin was amused and slapped Mu Yingying on the back in an annoyed manner. Seeing that Shen Yanxin was laughing, Mu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief, because she knew that Shen Yanxin had calmed down. She then grinned and moved closer to her, wanting to strike while the iron was hot.
"Stay away from me..."
Shen Yanxin really couldn't do anything about her best friend. She realized that she was right. Sometimes, Mu Yingying really was like a golden retriever.
"No, no, where are we going to eat? Be careful, sister."
Mu Yingying was like a stubborn plaster, impossible to get rid of or chase away; she just kept getting closer and closer with her giggling.
Shen Yanxin sighed, deciding that she owed her something. She tried to resist a few times but to no avail, so she could only let the other person stick close to her. She glanced at Xia Che with an apologetic look in her eyes, and the other person quickly waved her hand to indicate that she didn't mind. Then, Shen Yanxin took the pendant and walked with Xia Che in one direction.
"Have you booked the restaurant? Where is it?"
Xia Che followed behind the two girls the whole time, smiling as he watched the two best friends in front of him.
"Hmm... let's go to Seattle then. I searched online for the highest-rated restaurants nearby, and this was the only one. Plus, it was recommended by Li Junyang. He's already made a reservation there and is waiting. Let's just go there."
When this was mentioned, a hint of anticipation appeared in Shen Yanxin's eyes. A restaurant known for its elegant environment must have exquisite dishes, right?
I just don't know if the photos will turn out well...
For girls, when eating out, the food doesn't matter as much as the photos. If the photos don't turn out well, they'd rather eat at a street food stall.
At least that's how Chen Yanxin sees it.
"It was arranged by Li Junyang... Okay, I understand."
Xia Che's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded with a nonchalant smile.
It seems tonight is indeed a trap...
As for Li Junyang apologizing to him in person?
Xia Che had never even considered such a thing. Having read the original novel, he could confidently say, "I know him better than his father."
Would such a hypocrite sincerely ask me out just to apologize?
Xia Che felt that if he believed that, he would be the biggest idiot in the world.
As the sun set, the strange trio attracted the attention of passersby.
After all, Shen Yanxin and Mu Yingying were both very beautiful, and Xia Che, who was walking beside them, also became the focus of attention.
—A blond-haired guy with two beautiful girls, doesn't he look like he's about to do something bad?
Oh shit……
That blond guy deserves to die!
From then on, many more people in the world came to hate blond hair.
...
Seattle-style restaurant.
Liu Bing, like a moving fat ball, stood at the restaurant entrance, craning her neck as if waiting for someone.
Several waiters stood around him, exchanging cautious glances, wondering which important person was coming that could alarm their boss, a well-known entrepreneur in Jiang City, who was now looking on like a lackey eagerly awaiting their arrival.
Yesterday was one thing, after all, the other party was Yanba, and there weren't many people in the entire Jiang City who dared to go against him.
But what's going on today?
Is the cigarette burns about to return?
Just as the waiters were puzzled and couldn't figure it out, a student-looking person walked over leisurely.
Liu Bing wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyes instantly lighting up. With a broad smile, he went to greet him and called out impatiently from a distance, "Young Master Li!"
