"......"
Lin Beichen and the others were speechless for a moment.
Jian Yu's attention was focused on his story. "Anything else? Didn't you just say you were bitten by wolves in the no-man's-land?"
Speaking of this, Hu Xiu puffed out his chest, pulled up one sleeve, and revealed the scars on his arm. "This ring of teeth marks is from one of the wolves. I got out of the car to relieve myself, and several wolves quietly approached me from behind. Luckily, I was alert and ran back to the car after spotting the pack. But one of the wolves blocked my car door beforehand. Fortunately, I was close by, and the moment I jumped into the car, the lead wolf jumped up and bit me. I managed to sneak into the car and avoid it, but my arm was still injured by its teeth."
"Did a wolf chase you?"
"Of course they chased me, they chased me for miles. They were furious when they saw me drive away."
If Hu Xiu had a tail, he would be wagging it high in the sky.
"You're pretty good, you managed to shake them off."
"Of course."
Another friend of theirs said, "Don't be so proud. Those wolves weren't shaken off by you; they were attracted to other animals that suddenly appeared."
Hu Xiu glared.
“The road in that no-man’s-land is not good. You can’t drive fast at all. If it weren’t for other animals, those wolves would have kept you at bay.”
Hu Xiu said irritably, "You think you know so much?"
"I can't help it, I'm a straightforward person, and I can't stand it when people brag in front of girls."
Hu Xiu was even angrier.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a bit tense, Jian Yu tried to defuse the situation, saying, "Hu Xiu is really impressive. Many people wouldn't dare to go to the no-man's-land even if they had companions with them, let alone Hu Xiu going alone."
"that is."
Hu Xiu's tail stood up again.
Jian Yu found him quite amusing. "Do your parents know where you went?"
"Know."
Jian Yu admired Hu Xiu's parents for giving him so much freedom.
Hu Xiu smoothed his bangs. "Of course, my parents are the most open-minded parents in the world, and they won't have any family conflicts with their daughter-in-law in the future."
After saying that, he looked at Jian Yu expectantly.
Unfortunately, Jian Yu didn't catch the meaning behind his words: "Then your girlfriend is quite lucky."
Lin Beichen almost burst out laughing. The word "single" that Hu Xiu had just emphasized probably didn't reach Jian Yu's ears.
Hu Xiu hesitated, "I don't have a girlfriend yet, I'm single."
Being single is great.
"puff---"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Hu Xiu, “…”
Jian Yu was also puzzled.
Next, Hu Xiu indirectly recommended himself.
Even Lin Beichen couldn't stand her overly attentive attitude.
But Jian Yu just didn't catch it.
Hu Xiu, in his haste, started to be direct: "Jian Yu, are you free tomorrow? I'd like to invite you to the movies."
When the topic of movies came up, Jian Yu turned to Lin Beichen and asked, "Are you free tomorrow? I have an appointment with Director He."
Lin Beichen nodded, "Yes!"
Hu Xiu: "I want to go too."
Lin Beichen: "What are you going to do? It's all stuff you're not interested in."
Hu Xiu said, "After you two finish talking, I'll watch a movie with Jian Yu."
Now, Jian Yu finally realized Hu Xiu's purpose.
Hu Xiu was a simple person, and Jian Yu didn't want to refuse him in front of so many people, so he just smiled and didn't say anything.
His hands didn't stop moving.
[Lin Beichen, please speak to Hu Xiu privately.]
After sending the message, he put his phone away, saying, "I'm going to the restroom."
After Jian Yu left, Lin Beichen grabbed Hu Xiu's arm and looked at his group of good brothers, "Do you guys all have your own ideas?"
Hu Xiu spoke first, "You said you and Jian Yu aren't in that kind of relationship. Since you don't like her, then we brothers will naturally not hold back."
One of the boys nodded in agreement, "I also want to ask her out."
Lin Beichen: "You bunch of single dogs, give up on that idea!"
"You talk as if you're not single now."
"Whether I'm single or not, you have no chance. Do you know why?"
"Why? Are her standards for choosing a partner very high?"
"Because he's not single."
"......"
I was careless and forgot to ask that crucial question.
Hu Xiu, in particular, clutched his heart, asking, "Which man did this?"
"No matter who it is, you have no chance."
"......"
After Jian Yu came out, Hu Xiu looked at her with a resentful gaze, "You have a boyfriend?"
Jian Yu nodded, “…”
Do you have any sisters?
Yes, I have!
But I can't introduce it to you!
Hu Xiu, "Where are your good friends?"
"There's nothing suitable for you."
Hu Xiu, "Are you discriminating against me?"
Jian Yu shook his head, "No, no."
Hu Xiu nodded. "That's more like it. Then you're in charge of introducing me to a girlfriend."
Jian Yu, “…” How does she look like a matchmaker?
Hu Xiu: "I don't care. You've extinguished my newly emerging idea of marriage. You have to take responsibility."
Jianyu, “…”
Is this a staged accident?
Jian Yu chuckled twice. "These things depend on fate; you can't rush them."
Hu Xiu: "I don't care, you have to take responsibility for me anyway."
Jian Yu had no choice but to turn to Lin Beichen for help.
Lin Beichen was helpless against Hu Xiu's stubbornness. "This kid has been a stubborn mule since he was a child. Just ignore him and let him play by himself."
"How dare you speak like that?" Hu Xiu said, displeased.
Hu Xiu then stayed by Jian Yu's side until his friends pulled him away.
While talking to someone, Lin's mother kept an eye on the situation. Upon seeing this, she sent a message to Lin Beichen.
Am I right? Jian Yu is rich and good-looking, much more popular than Susan. If you don't make your move soon, you'll really have no chance with her.
[Jian Yu already has a boyfriend, so please stop trying to matchmake her.]
When Lin's mother saw Lin Beichen's reply, she was so angry that she wanted to kick him a couple of times. Why was he so disobedient?
Or is it that he hasn't forgotten Susan yet?
Lin's mother really wanted to splash a basin of water on Lin Beichen to wake him up. People should look forward and not waste time on people who are not worth it.
From then on, Lin Beichen intentionally or unintentionally blocked his mother from getting close to Jian Yu several times.
This made Lin's mother somewhat absent-minded until the end of the banquet.
When Jian Yu left, he told Lin Beichen to meet him at the West Suburbs Teahouse private room at 4 PM the next day.
Lin Beichen: "Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow."
Hu Xiu wore a wronged expression, "Jian Yu..."
Jian Yu waved to him, "Bye-bye!"
Hu Xiu had no choice but to say "Goodbye!" to Jian Yu as well.
The next day, Jian Yu arrived at the agreed location ahead of time.
As soon as they pushed open the door, they found that in addition to Lin Beichen, Hu Xiu, who was dressed much more elegantly than yesterday, was also in the private room.
Jianyu, “…”
