It seems his intuition was right; Bai Qianmo was indeed sitting behind him.
“I met Zhang Yafei six years ago. At that time, she dropped out of school and worked as a singer in a bar. I would occasionally go to that bar with my friends. Once, she was being harassed by a customer. I felt sorry for her and helped her out.”
At this point, Li Yushu looked at Bai Qianmo with a slightly nervous expression: "I dated her for a while back then, but we gradually lost contact because I went abroad. Qianmo, Zhang Yafei is now Guo Qize's girlfriend, and Guo Qize was my childhood friend before I went abroad. He knows everything about my past with Zhang Yafei, so I never intended to interfere. Besides, the person I like now..."
"Qianmo!"
The name Li Yushu was about to utter was abruptly interrupted as Nie Siqi pulled her companion over.
She feigned surprise and looked at Li Yushu: "Brother Yushu is here too."
Li Yushu nodded politely.
"Qianmo, do you mind if we sit down together?"
Before Bai Qianmo could speak, Nie Siqi had already sat down.
Bai Qianmo took a sip of coffee nonchalantly, her gaze sweeping over Nie Siqi and Li Yushu's faces, a clear understanding forming in her mind.
Nie Siqi sat next to Li Yushu and let her companion sit next to Bai Qianmo.
Thus, the four of them stared at each other, finding themselves in an awkward situation.
My companion forced a natural smile: "How about we order some desserts to try first? I used to come here often for desserts; their light cheesecake is very famous."
Nie Siqi nodded: "Okay, I'll order one of these too. Yu Shu, Qian Mo, why didn't you order any dessert?"
Li Yu said in a gentle voice with a calm expression, "Qianmo and I don't like desserts. Order whatever you want, it's on me!"
Nie Siqi paused slightly as she flipped through the menu, her lowered gaze quickly rising to glance at Bai Qianmo, her eyes filled with jealousy.
"Alright then, we won't stand on ceremony!"
Bai Qianmo chuckled inwardly at the cold look Nie Siqi gave her. Nie Siqi's affection for Li Yushu was already quite obvious.
Li Yushu and Nie Siqi must have kept in touch, otherwise how would he have known she was filming in Shanghai? And how could he have delivered the roses to her private room so precisely?
This type of man is good at leaving himself room for maneuver; even if he doesn't like someone, he won't reject them outright.
As expected of a renowned diplomat, he can handle all sorts of people, let alone an ignorant young girl pursuing him.
Such people may seem gentle and kind, but in reality, they never easily reveal their inner world to outsiders.
"Enjoy your meal, I'm going back to the hotel now!" Bai Qianmo said to Li Yushu and Nie Siqi as she stood up.
"I'll take you back." Li Yushu stood up immediately afterward.
Bai Qianmo glanced at Nie Siqi: "No need, Mr. Li."
The phrase "Mr. Li" clearly indicated her attitude and also subtly reminded Nie Siqi not to mistake the object of her jealousy.
She had no feelings for Li Yushu.
After Bai Qianmo left, Li Yushu's face was somewhat gloomy. He looked at the figure walking out the door through the French windows, and a fierce glint flashed in the depths of his eyes.
