When Lu Yanting saw that thin and frail figure, his heart ached uncontrollably.
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, forming a deep frown. His eyes held a mixture of frustration and complex love, while a hidden pang of heartache rose within him.
Noticing his absent-mindedness, Meng Wenyan followed his gaze.
Across from me stood a girl in a white dress, her eyes red-rimmed, her face deathly pale, her long black hair falling smoothly over her shoulders.
Meng Wenyan's eyes held a hint of doubt and a touch of disgust, which she quickly concealed.
She knew that this girl was the Shen Xia everyone was talking about, and her features did indeed resemble hers by about 70%.
Although she has only been back for a few days, several of her friends have already learned everything about her, Lu Yanting, and Shen Xia's relationship.
Everyone quieted down and silently observed the strange magnetic field between the three of them.
Shi Xing was secretly excited; it turned out she was quite the entertainer!
Unable to bear watching the two staring at each other so intently and without any regard for others, Meng Wenyan spoke up first.
"Mr. Lu? Is that young lady your friend?"
Shen Xia seemed startled and quickly lowered her head and lowered her eyelids.
Lu Yanting was also brought back to his senses and looked directly at Meng Wenyan in front of him.
"I guess so, we're not that close. Wen Yan, you're being too distant. You used to always call me by my name, didn't you?"
Meng Wenyan's eyes curved into a smile, her lips curving into a gentle yet distant smile.
"That's all in the past. So many years have passed, things should have changed by now."
Shi Xing nodded secretly. It was already a sign of Meng Wenyan's good temper that he could still show such disgusting people his face in front of the main person.
Lu Yanting panicked for a moment.
"Wenyan, it's not like that..."
However, Meng Wenyan had no intention of paying attention to him or getting involved in their emotional entanglement.
"I'm leaving now, you should go and say hello to her too."
After saying that, she walked up to Ren Anran and pulled her along, saying, "Xingxing, let's go play over there."
Shi Xing smiled in response.
"OK."
Then the three of them, along with Lu Yihuan who was still clueless, called their friends who had come with them and left.
Once they were far from that area, everyone tacitly dispersed and wandered back to where they had been.
That's why we can get along so well.
The group of people hid in different places to watch the show.
The crowd dispersed, leaving only a few people pretending to shoot arrows.
Shi Xing and Ren Anran hid behind a pillar.
Why is your brother here too?
Upon hearing this, Ren Anran immediately scanned her surroundings and indeed saw her brother standing there with a deep and constipated expression.
"He's sick."
Shi Xing remained silent.
Ren Anran's phone vibrated. She checked and saw it was a message from Lu Yihuan:
"Is your brother going to steal my brother's woman? Those two have terrible taste as always."
She had nothing to say, so she showed the message to Shi Xing as well.
Shi Xing, unable to be kind, suppressed his laughter, and then spotted Lu Yihuan and Meng Wenyan behind the opposite pillar.
Another message came from the other end: Are the three of them playing statues here?
Shi Xing also thought they were really good at standing.
The three people who had been silent for a long time finally made a move.
Shen Xia silently shed tears, her wet almond-shaped eyes fixed on Lu Yanting.
He spoke in a hoarse voice: "Ting..."
"Click, click, click..."
The crisp clicking sounds echoed in my mind.
Shi Xing, who was watching the show, was speechless, complaining to the system in her mind that was eating sunflower seeds.
"Can you please stop eating sunflower seeds in my head?"
099, with an innocent face, said, "The electronic sunflower seeds I'm eating won't be thrown into your brain."
"It's so noisy, it's disturbing my enjoyment of the melon!"
"Alright then."
Finally, her mind calmed down.
But what followed was a smacking sound.
Shi Xing was speechless; he knew without a doubt that 099 was eating again.
"Can't you just mute the sound?"
099 suddenly realized what was happening, and then all the sounds disappeared.
I was so busy watching the drama that I almost forgot I could block people.
It then complained, "Why is Shen Xia constantly crying? Humans have such well-developed tear ducts!"
"Maybe it's because I've been staring blankly for so long that my eyes are watering."
"That makes sense."
The two ended their conversation, which had only lasted for about ten or twenty seconds.
After a moment of silence, Lu Yanting looked at Shen Xia with a complicated expression.
"Chen Xia, what are you doing here?"
Shen Xia raised her hand to wipe away her tears, her expression stubborn.
Why can't I come here?
"You shouldn't run around while you're pregnant. What if you hurt the baby in your belly?"
Shen Xia touched her lower abdomen, her expression softening. "I'll take care of my own child; you don't need to worry about it."
Her words seemed to anger Lu Yanting, who strode forward and grabbed Shen Xia's wrist.
"He's my child too! I have the right to discipline him!"
Shen Xia tried to shake off his hands, but they gripped her tightly like iron clamps.
Not only did the other person not move at all, but she herself staggered a few steps.
"Let me go! He's not your child! He has nothing to do with you!"
You think I'd believe you?
Provoked by her, Lu Yanting's eyes turned bloodshot, his face contorted, and he uttered words one by one.
"Let me go! I'll leave and let you and Miss Meng be together!"
"Impossible! My affairs with Wen Yan are none of your business."
Lu Yanting didn't believe her at all. He was convinced that the child was his because he had never used protection, and Shen Xia only had him as her man.
