An Jingxuan looked at their backs without saying a word.
Jiang Xinyue walked over and held his hand.
"Come on, let's follow."
An Jingxuan's gaze stagnated for a moment before he nodded: "Okay."
This hotpot restaurant is not very famous, and its location is even a bit hidden, but there are luxury cars parked outside, and it is not difficult to see that this is a gathering place exclusively for rich kids.
As soon as you walk into the room, you can see the magnificent decoration inside. It is a hot pot restaurant, but it is decorated as luxuriously as a palace.
After ordering, Tang Xu still paid.
It was the first time that An Jingxuan realized what it felt like to be useless.
Tang Xu and Qu Lingyuan continued to interact frequently at the dinner table.
Tang Xu would pick up some vegetables for Qu Lingyuan from time to time, peel some shrimps, and even peel the sweet and sour garlic cloves and put them in front of her.
An Jingxuan seemed very absent-minded while eating.
Halfway through his meal, Tang Xu's cell phone suddenly rang. He was peeling shrimps for Qu Lingyuan. He glanced at his phone and hung up directly, looking calm.
An Jingxuan was sitting relatively close to Tang Xu, and he seemed to have vaguely seen the word "baby" on the note on his phone.
Not sure if he had seen it wrong, An Jingxuan frowned.
After peeling the shrimp, Tang Xu elegantly took out a tissue to wipe his hands, picked up his mobile phone, stood up and prepared to go outside.
"I'm going to the bathroom. You guys eat first." He looked apologetic.
An Jingxuan gave him a suspicious look, and when he left the room, he stood up and said to Qu Lingyuan and Jiang Xinyue, "I'm going to the bathroom too."
He pursed his lips and followed Tang Xu not far away, and followed him into the men's restroom.
Tang Xu entered a cubicle and An Jingxuan entered the one next to him.
Not only did she follow Qu Lingyuan last time, but now she is following her new boyfriend.
An Jingxuan only felt that he was becoming more and more decadent, and was deeply worried about his future.
He always felt that Tang Xu came to the bathroom not just to use the toilet.
Sure enough, Tang Xu's low laughter was soon heard from next door.
"Baby, I'm eating out. I have an appointment today. Didn't I tell you?"
"Huh? You saw me at the mall?"
"Oh, that woman, she is the eldest daughter of the Qu family and the only heir of the Qu family."
"Well...I do now...but she has some connection."
"But I'm only doing this for the company. Once I get those confidential documents, she won't be worth mentioning anymore."
"Well, when I get everything sorted, we'll get married."
"You have to believe me, this is also for our future."
"I still have to go eat. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
"Well, that's fine. I'll meet you at the hotel after I finish my meal."
Tang Xu's voice was even gentler than when he spoke to Qu Lingyuan. The content of the conversation was so unbearable that An Jingxuan clenched his fists and wished he could rush to the next room and beat him up.
But in An Jingxuan's heart, Qu Lingyuan was indeed truly with Tang Xu. Would Qu Lingyuan be very sad if he exposed her so rashly on their first date?
This is very confusing.
The sound of flushing came from next door, and An Jingxuan hurriedly ran out of the bathroom and walked towards the box before Tang Xu, so as not to expose the fact that he was eavesdropping.
Qu Lingyuan and Jiang Xinyue were still eating. The two girls knew nothing about what was going on. They looked up at the person who entered the room without any reaction and continued to talk about their own topic.
"Sister-in-law, is there any place you want to go today?" Qu Lingyuan spoke incoherently with a piece of mutton in her mouth.
"I had a lot of fun today, all thanks to you and Tang Xu." Jiang Xinyue's mouth was not idle either, and she chatted happily with Qu Lingyuan.
When An Jingxuan heard Tang Xu's name, he paused, then sat back in his seat as if nothing had happened.
As soon as he sat down, Tang Xu came back, also looking calm.
An Jingxuan felt disdainful from the bottom of his heart.
What a hypocrite.
After dinner, Qu Lingyuan stood next to An Jingxuan very consciously. After all, they were going home together.
But An Jingxuan still has to go to school to send Jiang Xinyue off.
Tang Xu grabbed Qu Lingyuan's wrist and said with a smile, "Let your brother and sister-in-law be alone for a while. I can take you home."
He said this as if he was thinking about An Jingxuan and Jiang Xinyue.
Qu Lingyuan also wanted to deliberately anger An Jingxuan. After hesitating for a moment, she agreed to him and stood beside Tang Xu.
An Jingxuan unexpectedly said nothing. With his eyelids drooped, he silently pulled Jiang Xinyue towards where he parked his car.
On the way to send Jiang Xinyue back to the dormitory, they were both silent, and there was no feeling of a young couple being alone together at all.
Jiang Xinyue couldn't help herself and asked him, "What's wrong with you today?"
An Jingxuan's tone was calm yet a bit puzzled, as if he didn't understand at all: "What's wrong with me today?"
The light was red, Jiang Xinyue turned her head to look at him.
The man stared intently at the road ahead, his eyes reflecting the night light, gleaming a clear amber. The dimness of the car softened his handsome features.
But Jiang Xinyue still felt that the aura he exuded was full of indifference and coldness, and had nothing to do with gentleness.
Jiang Xinyue was speechless.
After passing a red light, An Jingxuan stepped on the accelerator and the vehicle continued to move forward.
"Are you...in a bad mood today?" Jiang Xinyue asked hesitantly.
She really couldn't figure out his mood or his thoughts. The less she understood, the more panicked and uneasy she became.
The noisy evening breeze blew across An Jingxuan's cheek from the half-open car window, blowing up half of his hair on his temples and tangling it with his eyelashes.
No matter how you look at it, you can tell he's in a bad mood, but he shook his head in denial: "No, I'm not in a bad mood."
It was impossible to get anything clear by beating around the bush like this, so Jiang Xinyue gritted her teeth and decided to speak directly.
"Then why did you keep messing with Yuanyuan and Tang Xu today? Your eyes were glued to them, and your face looked so bad," Jiang Xinyue frowned, lowered her head, and added with a determined heart, "If you weren't Yuanyuan's biological brother, someone who didn't know would think you liked Yuanyuan!"
The sound of tires rubbing against the asphalt road was heard, and An Jingxuan stepped on the brakes. Jiang Xinyue was so scared that she immediately grabbed the safety belt.
She looked up in shock and saw another red light in front of her.
"Sorry, I was driving a little fast..." An Jingxuan smiled apologetically and turned to look at her, "I guess I scared you."
Jiang Xinyue was stunned for a moment: "No...it's okay..."
She was a little jealous when she spoke just now, but now her emotions were replaced by fear, and she completely forgot why she questioned An Jingxuan just now.
I have to say that An Jingxuan's method of changing the topic was very effective and his technique deserves praise.
