Bai Xiaoruo didn't take it to heart and walked straight towards the women's restroom.
Bai Xiaoruo had just washed her hands and reached the door when she looked up and almost bumped into Xiao Yaran who was coming towards her.
Bai Xiaoruo quickly took two steps back to make way for Xiao Yaran, saying, "Excuse me, I'll go back to the classroom first." After saying that, Bai Xiaoruo prepared to go downstairs to her own classroom.
"Hey Xiaoruo, don't rush off. I came here specifically to find you." Xiao Yaran quickly grabbed Bai Xiaoruo's arm.
Xiao Yaran had specifically waited at the door to ambush Bai Xiaoruo.
"What's up?"
As classmates for so long, Bai Xiaoruo and Xiao Yaran have not had much interaction. Bai Xiaoruo is always sticking with Ji Shushu. In addition, she is not talkative or active. In everyone's eyes, she is not a rich girl or anything like that. People in the class rarely take the initiative to approach Bai Xiaoruo.
This affectionate "Xiao Ruo" made Bai Xiao Ruo feel a little flattered.
"Xiao Ruo, it's like this, this weekend is my birthday, Saturday night at 7:30. I've already booked a private room at Landi, and I really hope you can come and have fun. I've also invited a lot of friends, so it'll be very lively."
"Land? This... isn't it a bit inappropriate?" Bai Xiaoruo was a little surprised. When did she and Xiao Yaran become this close? It was unbelievable that she would actually invite her to her birthday party.
"There's nothing wrong with it, Xiao Ruo. I sincerely hope you can come. Don't disappoint me, okay?" Xiao Ya Ran looked at Bai Xiao Ruo expectantly, hoping to soften her heart.
"But... I probably can't afford to give you a high-end gift, and besides... I probably won't have much fun with your friends. I'm really boring, I don't know anything, and I don't know how to create a lively atmosphere. You should invite someone else. I'm really sorry."
"No, Xiaoruo, gifts are secondary. I genuinely wanted to invite you to my birthday party. We've been classmates for a while, after all. Or... is it because you dislike me?"
"No, no, I absolutely don't hate you." Bai Xiaoruo quickly waved her hand, afraid that Xiao Yaran would misunderstand her.
"Since you don't dislike me, then let's make it a deal. You absolutely have to come, okay? Saturday night at 7:30, room 303 at Landi."
"Um... Xiao Yaran, I... I have another question I'd like to ask you."
"What's the problem?"
"I...I don't know what Landi is. When we go...can I bring Shushu with me? I don't feel safe going alone."
Xiao Yaran was stunned. Just which village did Bai Xiaoruo come from? She didn't even know what "land" was? Security? What security did she need? Or had Bai Xiaoruo sensed something?
It's rare to find an opportunity to call Bai Xiaoruo out alone. If we bring Ji Shushu along, how can the plan proceed?
Although Xiao Yaran outwardly dislikes Ji Shushu, Ji Shushu is still a member of the Ji family, and if anything happens to her, the Ji family will not let it go easily.
But Bai Xiaoruo is different. She's just an ordinary poor student who doesn't know where she came from. She wears cheap clothes from street stalls all day long and looks like a bookworm. Even if someone like her were dragged somewhere and given a good beating, or even killed, who would care?
"Xiao Ruo, do you think I'm a bad person, and that's why you feel insecure? I invited you to my birthday party with such good intentions, how could you think of me like that?"
"I...I didn't mean that, I..."
"Xiao Ruo, as you know, Ji Shushu has always been somewhat prejudiced against me in class. Even if you ask her, she won't go. I don't want to put you in a difficult position or damage your relationship. So, Xiao Ruo, please don't tell Ji Shushu, okay? If you don't know where Landi is, I can send someone to pick you up. Xiao Ruo, promise me, okay?"
Xiao Yaran suddenly gripped Bai Xiaoruo's hands tightly with both of hers, her eyes glistening with tears as she looked at her pleadingly.
Faced with Xiao Yaran's actions, Bai Xiaoruo, no matter how many reasons she had not to go, immediately softened.
Sigh, we were classmates after all, I really shouldn't have spoiled their fun.
Xiao Yaran is right. Shushu is her mortal enemy. They often quarrel in class. Even if she invites Shushu, Shushu won't be happy to go. She might even throw a tantrum.
"Alright then, I won't tell Shushu, I'll go."
It's just a birthday party. Xiao Ya Ran is quite popular, so she'll probably invite a lot of friends. If there are a lot of people, I can just sit for a few minutes and leave if I get bored. It'll be a good way to make a good impression, and no one should notice.
"Xiao Ruo, you're so kind, thank you so much!"
Having finally convinced Bai Xiaoruo, Xiao Yaran excitedly hugged her, almost jumping for joy.
Bai Xiaoruo stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. She didn't usually have much interaction with Xiao Yaran, so why was Xiao Yaran so excited when she agreed to attend her birthday party?
This is really a headache. I don't have much money left, and I don't know what gift to give. I've never attended anyone's birthday party except for Ziqian's and Shushu's. And I have to go to some weird place called Landi. I'm so nervous.
Xiao Yaran, who was holding Bai Xiaoruo tightly, gradually raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and a sinister look flashed in her eyes. Bai Xiaoruo, you have finally obediently fallen into my trap. When the time comes, you can wait to receive the surprise I have for you.
