"What would you like to eat?" After taking a seat, Xu Chengzhi looked through the menu for a while and turned to ask Lin Yang for her opinion.
Lin Yang didn't even glance at the menu; her eyes remained fixed on Lu Xiangxi, who refused to switch seats with her. She smiled and tossed the question to her, "Xiangxi, what would you like to eat?"
Lu Xiangxi thought Lin Yang was sick.
Ever since that text message, she'd felt that Lin Yang was acting strangely.
In her eyes, they were rivals in love, so why did Lin Yang act like they were very close?
He also kept subtly implying to her that Xu Chengzhi was a rich and handsome man, and that she should hurry up and try to marry him.
However, she could only keep these thoughts to herself and respond to Lin Yang with her most skillful gentle demeanor, "Sister Lin, you can choose whatever you want, I'm fine with anything."
Every frown and smile revealed her humility.
"Xiangxi sister, don't be shy, you choose, just choose according to your preference." Lin Yang insisted through gritted teeth, her eyes almost twitching as she tried to signal him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiangxi insisted on sticking to her humble persona and shook her head, saying, "Sister Lin, just do as you like. I'm fine with anything."
After speaking, Lu Xiangxi's eyes were practically glued to Chu Yu again. It was unclear whether she understood Lin Yang's hint or not, but she refused to spare a single glance for Xu Chengzhi.
Lin Yang shook her head in exasperation, wanting to continue hinting to Lu Xiangxi that she couldn't see it.
Completing the mission is so difficult. Why is it that Lu Xiangxi in this life is not attracted to Xu Chengzhi?
Is it that Xu Chengzhi lacks charm?
Wait a minute, even though he's a scumbag, he's definitely much better looking than Chu Yu in Lu Xiangxi's eyes.
Lin Yang glanced down at the menu casually, still unable to figure out what the problem was.
After ordering, everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts and no one uttered a sound; the atmosphere was very tense.
Even when Lin Yang tried several times to find topics to talk about with Xu Chengzhi and Lu Xiangxi, there was no response.
"Sigh..." It's so quiet. Lin Yang felt that this meal was not as good as ordering takeout on the film set.
She sighed and looked up, her gaze falling on Xiao Zheng, who was unusually quiet today.
From the moment he entered, Xiao Zheng's eyes never left his phone, and he would occasionally grin foolishly, almost bursting out laughing. He had the shy look of a tough guy with a face full of peach blossoms.
Something's up!
Lin Yang temporarily put the task aside and curiously peeked over the bar.
Just as he was about to see Xiao Zheng's chat content clearly, Lin Yang's breathing alerted Xiao Zheng, who was engrossed in his phone.
He quickly turned off his phone screen, flipped it over and hid it under his hand, looking extremely nervous. "Auntie, what are you doing?"
"You little rascal, it's autumn, and you're already jumping the season to play the field?" Lin Yang narrowed his eyes. "Tell me honestly, which girl are you two getting all lovey-dovey with behind your aunt's back?"
"No...no, what little girl? Where is there a little girl?" Xiao Zheng, whose thoughts had been guessed, blushed and stammered, trying to cover it up.
"Fine, I've spoiled you for nothing. I saw it all. You were just telling someone you were looking forward to your return to China and that you'd like to meet them. And now you're just pretending with me!" Lin Yang turned her head, feigning anger.
"You...you saw everything?" Xiao Zheng's face grew redder and redder. "Oh, it's just an online relationship, nothing more. We just started dating not long ago."
Lin Yang had just seen two sentences, and she didn't expect that Xiao Zheng would actually tell the truth.
At this moment, Xu Chengzhi, who had been silent, received a phone call. He didn't try to hide it and answered the call right in front of Lin Yang.
However, since he wasn't on speakerphone, Lin Yang only heard a few of his words.
"Going back to China next Monday?"
"Okay, what time is your flight? I'll send Uncle Zhou to pick you up. I'll wait for you to come back, and I have someone to introduce you to."
