…
By the time I finished working on it, more than half an hour had passed.
Yu Rou looked at the time. Things had been delayed. She had just received several calls. Fortunately, the problem was not serious and could be dealt with tomorrow. She wanted to thank Xia Zhiyang and go back directly, but a message popped up in the notification bar. She clicked it and took a look. It was Chen Qinglan who sent her a photo.
The photo showed a candlelight dinner, with not only a birthday cake but also gifts. The most important thing was that she could see a girl's hand. Yu Rou recognized the hand as Wu Jia's at a glance because there was a jade bracelet on the wrist of that hand. The jade bracelet was of very good quality and she had seen Wu Jia wearing it before.
The meaning of this photo sent by Chen Qinglan is self-evident.
Yu Rou curled her lips, put away her phone, and said to Xia Zhiyang, "Sorry to bother you. Haven't you eaten yet? How about I treat you to a meal? Thank you for your help."
Xia Zhiyang shook his head: "It's nothing, just a small matter, you're welcome."
"You've been waiting with me for so long, and I feel bad if I don't do something. Why don't we have a meal together? I've sent my car for repairs, can you drive?"
Since Yu Rou said so, it would be too disrespectful for Xia Zhiyang to refuse.
He had no choice but to nod and say, "Get in the car."
Yu Rou sat in the passenger seat. Xia Zhiyang waited for her to fasten her seat belt and asked her, "Where are we going to eat?"
Yu Rou mentioned the name of a restaurant.
Xia Zhiyang was stunned for a moment. What Yu Rou mentioned was exactly the place he and Wu Jia were originally going to. Just now, Wu Jia suddenly said that she wanted to have dinner with Chen Qinglan again. Maybe they were there.
Yu Rou looked at him and pretended to be ignorant and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xia Zhiyang hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay."
"Then let's go."
Yu Rou smiled, her eyebrows raised, and her eyes were very seductive, which was completely different from her cold look just now. Xia Zhiyang was stunned for a moment and couldn't help holding his breath.
On the way, Yu Rou and Xia Zhiyang chatted idly.
Xia Zhiyang originally thought that Yu Rou was a cold and unapproachable woman, but after chatting for a few sentences, he was surprised to find that she was actually very talkative. It was easy and comfortable to chat with her, and he didn't feel awkward or bored.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Xia Zhiyang got out of the car first and opened the door for Yu Rou. The two walked into the restaurant together. The first thing they did was to look around the restaurant. Sure enough, they saw Wu Jia and Chen Qinglan sitting against the wall inside.
Yu Rou calmly turned her eyes away and pretended not to see it.
Xia Zhiyang happened to see Wu Jia smiling intimately and shyly at Chen Qinglan. He felt very uncomfortable and his face turned pale.
The waiter came over and led them to their seats. Xia Zhiyang had originally decided not to disturb Wu Jia and Chen Qinglan, but the waiter took them directly to the seats next to Wu Jia and Chen Qinglan.
When Chen Qinglan looked up, she saw Yu Rou and Xia Zhiyang walking towards her side by side.
Yu Rou looked at him with eyes full of deep meaning, cold and with a hint of irony.
When Chen Qinglan sent the photo to Yu Rou, she just wanted Yu Rou to be angry. Even a little anger was better than being indifferent to him. At least she wanted him to know that she still cared about him. If Yu Rou had no reaction at all, he might really give up.
But he couldn't understand Yu Rou's expression at this moment. She didn't look angry, but her eyes were too cold, and it didn't seem like she had no reaction.
Chen Qinglan pondered secretly, stood up and called out, "Sister."
Wu Jia turned around when she heard the voice, and her eyes widened when she saw Yu Rou and Xia Zhiyang.
"Zhiyang, Sister Yu, why are you also..."
"My car was rear-ended on the road, and Xia Zhiyang helped me, so I treated him to a meal." Yu Rou briefly explained, then asked calmly, "How about you two? Are you dating?"
Yu Rou's words made Wu Jia blush. She looked at Chen Qinglan quietly, and seeing that he didn't react, she had to explain herself: "No, today is Chen Qinglan's birthday, and I'm celebrating for him."
Chen Qinglan stared into Yu Rou's eyes without saying anything.
Yu Rou nodded noncommittally, then turned to Xia Zhiyang and said, "Then let's go sit over there. We won't disturb you anymore."
Wu Jia opened her mouth and wanted to ask if she wanted to sit together, but she swallowed the words. She finally had a chance to be alone with Chen Qinglan, and she had already decided to confess her feelings to Chen Qinglan while eating cake, so it would be better not to join them.
Who knew Chen Qinglan suddenly said, "Why don't you sit together? The cake hasn't been cut yet."
Wu Jia bit her lower lip, feeling a little regretful.
Yu Rou said, "No, I think you've almost finished eating. Let's sit separately so I don't disturb you."
Chen Qinglan's face stiffened slightly, and Wu Jia looked at Xia Zhiyang hopefully, hoping that he would speak.
Xia Zhiyang knew Wu Jia so well that he naturally understood what her look meant. He said bitterly, "Well, let's go sit over there."
After hearing this, Wu Jia winked happily at Xia Zhiyang. The joy in her eyes obviously hurt Xia Zhiyang. Yu Rou saw it, but Wu Jia didn't notice at all.
She reached out and patted Xia Zhiyang's arm, "Let's go, I'm a little hungry."
Xia Zhiyang came back to his senses and smiled at her apologetically, "Yeah."
The interaction between the two was actually very ordinary, but Chen Qinglan's face immediately turned pale when he saw it.
Yu Rou and Xia Zhiyang had left and were no longer visible. Wu Jia looked up and was about to talk to Chen Qinglan when she saw that he had a sullen face and dark eyes, which looked a little scary.
