"I'm going to answer a phone call."
Bai Qianmo nodded, watching Gu Jueye's departing figure, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Mengyao kept staring at Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo. When she saw Gu Jueye get up and leave, she said to Shu Ningxuan, "I'm going to the restroom."
Shu Ningxuan asked, "Do you need me to go with you?"
"No need, our bags are all here, it's inconvenient for us to go together."
Seeing Gu Jueye walk towards the restroom, Ye Mengyao immediately jogged after him.
Bai Qianmo glanced in the direction Ye Mengyao had left, a knowing look flashing in her eyes.
Ye Mengyao suddenly changed her attitude towards her at school, which was clearly purposeful.
She had originally thought that perhaps Ye Mengyao wanted to join forces with her to deal with Ye Qianning.
It now seems that Ye Mengyao wants far more than just these things.
Gu Jueye answered the phone for a few minutes, then went to the shared washbasin to wash his hands.
Ye Mengyao walked out of the women's restroom and looked at the man standing in front of the sink. Her heart was pounding like a deer.
"My lord?"
Gu Jueye turned on the tap and rubbed his slender hands together, his gaze coldly fixed on the young girl standing beside him through the half-length mirror.
He glanced at it but didn't say anything.
Ye Mengyao's nervousness rose to her throat, her hands nervously clenched in front of her: "My lord, I am Ye Qianning's younger sister, Ye Mengyao. I attended your birthday banquet. What a coincidence! I didn't expect to see you here. Do you remember me?"
Seeing that Gu Jueye didn't seem to recognize her, Ye Mengyao could only bring up Ye Qianning to make a better impression.
After washing his hands, Gu Jueye took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped them, without even lifting his eyelids.
"There were so many people at the banquet that day, it was impossible for me to remember everyone."
The implication is that I don't know you at all.
Ye Mengyao's sweet smile froze instantly, and a wave of embarrassment washed over her.
"Qianmo and I are classmates. I just saw you two come together. Are you dating? But don't worry, Qianmo and I are friends. I won't reveal your relationship to anyone."
Gu Jueye lifted his eyelids and finally looked directly at Ye Mengyao: "So you're my girlfriend's classmate? But since you're friends and met at the same restaurant, why didn't you go and say hello to her at the restaurant, but instead came to me trying to get noticed?"
Gu Jueye ruthlessly tore off Ye Mengyao's mask, his deep eyes seeming to see through people's hearts, which frightened Ye Mengyao so much that her face turned pale instantly.
"I...I didn't follow you. I just happened to run into you in the restroom, Your Excellency. Please don't misunderstand."
Gu Jueye scoffed lightly: "It doesn't matter if I misunderstand or not. I'm just worried that my girlfriend will misunderstand. Besides, my girlfriend and I are dating openly and honestly. We've never thought about hiding anything, so there's no need for you to keep it a secret for us."
After saying this, Gu Jueye ignored Ye Mengyao and turned to leave. He then saw Bai Qianmo leaning against the wall not far away, looking at him with a smile in her eyes.
Why does it take so long to make a phone call?
The moment Ye Qianning saw Bai Qianmo, her face turned from white to red, and she lowered her head guiltily.
Gu Jueye walked to Bai Qianmo's side, his eyes filled with tenderness: "It was Grandpa Bai who called."
"My grandfather?" Bai Qianmo's smile froze slightly.
He didn't come home last night, and he hasn't been home all day today. When he gets back, he'll probably be subjected to a severe interrogation.
"Grandpa Bai asked me to send you back as soon as possible."
Bai Qianmo glanced at Ye Mengyao, who was standing there dumbfounded, and took the initiative to reach out and wrap her arm around Gu Jueye's: "I'm full too, let's go."
Watching Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo leave together, Ye Mengyao felt a surge of resentment. Her actions just now felt like being stripped naked and having everything exposed to everyone.
She was originally very confident in her appearance, which is why she wanted to use a chance encounter to get close to Gu Jueye. Now it seems that this path is not as easy as she imagined.
Moreover, Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo are currently in the throes of a passionate relationship, so breaking them up would really require some effort.
She could tolerate losing to Ye Qianning, but how could she tolerate losing to someone like Bai Qianmo?
A deep sense of resentment flashed in Ye Mengyao's eyes.
Sooner or later, this man will definitely be hers!
