"Liu Feng, are you really leaving after all this time, being my classmate?" Li Yu walked towards him, his clear voice carrying urgency and a hint of barely perceptible anger.
Her long hair cascaded down her back, the slightly curled ends dancing lightly over her shoulders, adding to her beauty and liveliness.
When Li Yu's gaze fell on Zhu Shuang behind Liu Feng, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a half-smile.
"Li Yu, didn't you go to karaoke with Xiang Chao and the others? Why haven't you left yet?" Zhu Shuang asked in surprise.
Zhu Shuang is a straightforward girl who can't keep things to herself, and her facial expressions always vividly reflect her inner thoughts.
At that moment, her eyes were wide open, filled with curiosity.
Li Yu snorted and said, "There are too many people, it's a bit too noisy, I don't want to go. But I just happened to run into you guys, why don't we go have some fun together?"
“Okay!” Zhu Shuang replied without hesitation.
Then, their gazes simultaneously turned to Liu Feng.
Liu Feng was suddenly cornered at the school gate by two female classmates, leaving him momentarily at a loss. This scene reminded him of the time in his previous life when Yu Jingya had stopped him.
"What are you standing there for? Liu Feng, you're not going to refuse even this small favor, are you?" Li Yu teased, his bright eyes fixed on him, a hint of expectation in his gaze.
Liu Feng felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze. He scratched his head and gave an awkward smile. "Miss Li has spoken, how could I dare not give her face?"
Li Yu rolled his eyes at him: "Hmph, you're quite the smooth talker. So you're going?"
Liu Feng shrugged helplessly and said, "Great, I'm honored to be able to accompany two of the most beautiful girls in our class."
At this moment, Liu Feng thought to himself, he always kept a low profile in class, but he never expected to be stopped by these two girls today.
Since that's the case, let's go relax together.
The three of them went to several places, but the KTVs and internet cafes were already full.
Liu Feng also saw Wang Juan and Ouyang Linglong, who were playing and laughing happily with their classmates. He was about to go up and say hello, but Li Yu and Zhu Shuang pulled him away.
"Let's go to a street food stall for barbecue!" Li Yu suggested.
Liu Feng and Zhu Shuang readily agreed.
It was already late, and the streetlights were dim. The three wandered through the corners of the small town, finally deciding to settle down at a roadside food stall.
There was one empty table left; the other tables were already occupied by students.
Liu Feng glanced around but didn't see anyone he recognized. Judging from their conversation, he could tell they were students from another high school.
Li Yu and Zhu Shuang walked up to the stall and asked the owner about the price of each type of barbecue.
Liu Feng got up and called the two girls back, then began ordering food. Li Yu and Zhu Shuang both came from ordinary families and didn't have much money to squander.
Zhu Shuang's family was not well-off. She was able to attend high school and go to university entirely because her older sister worked outside to support her studies.
That time, when Zhu Shuang lent her umbrella to Liu Feng, although it was a broken umbrella and she seemed indifferent, it was the only umbrella that could accompany her through rainy days.
"Liu Feng, have you ordered the food? There's no need to order so much, we can't finish it all," Li Yu reminded him softly.
After ordering, Liu Feng sat back down, smiled, and said, "Tonight is my treat. I wish you all the best in your college entrance exams and hope you achieve great results."
"Thank you, but you don't need to treat me. Let's split the bill among the three of us," Zhu Shuang said earnestly. She was a kind and simple girl who didn't like to take advantage of others.
"No need, I'm a guy, it's my treat. I'm treating two beautiful ladies to dinner today, make sure they eat and drink well!" Liu Feng said generously.
"Let's split the cost of the meal," Li Yu insisted.
Liu Feng stopped arguing with them and directly took out two hundred-yuan bills and handed them to the proprietress: "Boss, here's the money for you. I'll refund you if I overpay and charge you if I underpay after you finish eating."
"Okay!" The proprietress took the money with a smile.
"Where did you get so much money?" Zhu Shuang asked in surprise, as she didn't even have that much money for food in a month.
"Was it given to you by Wang Juan?" Li Yu suddenly asked.
In their minds, Liu Feng, like them, couldn't possibly have that much money. The most likely explanation, as the classmates whispered among themselves, was that Liu Feng was dependent on Wang Juan, that rich young woman.
Many boys at school who were pursuing Wang Juan were scared off by her wealth.
Wang Juan is rich, beautiful, and academically excellent. Even the talented and beautiful Song Yu can only stand aside, and other boys are even more hesitant to approach her.
Driven by jealousy, they spread rumors about Liu Feng being a kept man, such as, "Today, School Beauty Wang took Liu Feng out for lamb skewers again..."
These rumors have even gained the approval of many girls.
Wang Juan never defended herself, and was happy to let Liu Feng bear these misunderstandings.
Soon, all the dishes were served.
Spicy snails, boiled peanuts, braised chicken feet, cold tofu strips, grilled grass carp, chicken cartilage skewers, roasted garlic...
The table was laden with food, and the two girls exclaimed that the portions were too generous; they couldn't possibly finish it all. But having been hungry all day, everyone eagerly began to eat.
The proprietress also kindly brought over a large bottle of Coke and a case of beer, saying, "You can return them if you can't finish them, so take your time eating."
Perhaps because it was nighttime, the three of them ate and chatted, and Li Yu and Zhu Shuang lost their usual reserve, creating a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.
Everyone asked each other about their exam scores and which university they were going to apply to.
After the group finished a bottle of cola, Zhu Shuang opened a beer.
Liu Feng didn't drink it; he wasn't used to the taste.
The two girls started drinking, one cup after another, while constantly mocking Liu Feng for being "incompetent."
