The restaurant is busiest around 7 or 8 pm.
Just then, the bright white light shone down from the doorway, and Rong Shang followed her out of the restaurant.
In the aisle filled with parked cars, An Chen and Lan Xi'er walked side by side, chatting and laughing, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
Having overheard their entire conversation, Rong Shang curled her lips into a smile, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes.
A few seconds later, she took out her phone and called An Chen.
At first, he hesitated when he learned that it was her calling, unsure whether to answer or not.
In the end, it was because Lan Xier found him strange that he walked away a few steps to answer Rong Shang's call after she said a few words to him.
"Hello."
"Achen, where are you now?"
"I..." An Chen glanced around guiltily, but didn't look at the restaurant entrance a dozen meters away. "I'm doing my homework."
Because Lan Xier was still waiting for him ahead, An Chen didn't dare to talk to Rong Shang for too long, and he lowered his voice even more so that Lan Xier wouldn't hear him.
"Yan Yan, can we talk about it after I finish my homework? Wait for my call."
People were coming and going at the entrance of the restaurant, and a group of high school students came out from inside.
Rong Shang didn't pay attention and kept her gaze fixed on An Chen in front of her.
She clicked her tongue and said, "Ah Chen, when did you become so enthusiastic?"
Another "Ah Chen" made Mu Jin, who was about to come up, stop in her tracks.
In my line of sight, the girl was standing on the steps to the right of the door, holding a phone in her hand and a faint smile on her lips.
Ah Chen... it's obvious that he is An Chen.
With a glint in his dark eyes, Mu Jin lowered his gaze, his thin, lustrous lips pressed into a straight line.
His teammates came out from behind, but Mu Jin reached out and stopped them.
At the same time, the girl in front of me started talking on the phone again.
"You can do your homework if you want, but how about you take me swimming this weekend?"
"I went last week but didn't learn anything."
Knowing all along that An Chen had already made plans with Lan Xi'er over the weekend, Rong Shang's request at this moment was definitely intentional.
But for Mu Jin, this was truly ironic.
If she didn't learn to swim, was all the time he spent teaching her to swim just wishful thinking on his part?
His face darkened completely. Mu Jin pursed his lips, his handsome jawline taut.
On this sweltering day, his team members inexplicably felt a chill.
But they didn't understand why Mu Jin's expression suddenly changed while listening to his childhood sweetheart talking on the phone with someone else.
Only Fang Xinyi, after witnessing this scene, gritted her teeth inwardly, convinced that Mu Jin must like that girl.
Women's intuition is usually very accurate.
When Ke Rongshang made this request, the result was obvious: An Chen refused.
He refused Rong Shang's offer, citing his need to accompany his mother to visit his maternal grandmother over the weekend.
Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say, so Rong Shang hung up the phone.
Her captivating peach blossom eyes narrowed dangerously as she watched An Chen walk back to Lan Xi'er's side, brazenly take her hand, and leave Rong Shang's sight.
Of course, An Chen and Lan Xi'er walked in the passageway in front of the restaurant the whole time.
Rong Shang saw it, and Mu Jin, who was behind her, naturally saw it as well.
That's why Mu Jin really got angry.
A "snap" sound suddenly came from behind. Rong Shang turned her head slightly, and a tall figure had already walked past her.
