When the man called her name, the man to her right frowned, a cold, stern glint flashing in his eyes.
The focus is on the person speaking.
Before Qin Yue could speak, the stranger blushed and excitedly continued, "I am Liu Yu... I... I don't know if you still remember me."
His skin was fair, but after he finished speaking, it turned so red it looked like it could bleed.
Seeing Qin Yue's puzzled look, he felt a little disappointed, but he perked up and said, "So much time has passed, it's understandable that you've forgotten. I'm Jing Chen's college roommate. We've met a few times before. I don't know if you remember me if I say this?"
She met Qi Jingchen's roommate when they were dating.
But Qi Jingchen was jealous back then. He didn't want to have any contact with even his roommates, let alone strangers who tried to chat him up.
They might just exchange greetings when they meet.
They never ate together and had no other contact in private.
I have some recollection of it, but it's rather vague.
As the man spoke, and as he pursed his lips, the dimples that appeared on his fair face gradually became clearer, the scene from the past became clearer.
It was a scene where she and Qi Jingchen went to the cafeteria for a meal after they got together, and they accidentally ran into his roommate.
One of his roommates accidentally spilled the soup in his hand. He didn't know if it was too hot, but when he looked over, his eyes were red and his lips were tightly pursed, revealing his identical dimples.
Qin Yue's already indifferent expression became even more distant as she nodded slightly to him: "Yes, Qi Jingchen and I have broken up."
Of course he knew.
When they broke up, Xiao Jing...
No, his name is Qi Jingchen now.
Jing Chen was dejected for a long time.
A person who had never drunk or smoked before learned to smoke and drink excessively during that period.
He was even hospitalized once.
The man's fingers tightened, his eyes filled with apology as he said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up Jing Chen, it's just... I just mentioned him because you didn't recognize him."
Seeing that she didn't seem inclined to respond, he awkwardly changed the subject, saying, "You're here to see the show too? Are you alone?"
After saying that, he felt annoyed at his own poor communication skills.
We're all sitting here; what else could we be doing but watching a performance?
"With friends."
As she spoke, she stepped slightly aside, indicating that the people next to her were together.
When Liu Yu saw Lu Yanci, the glint in her eyes immediately dimmed. Judging from his aura and attire, she could tell at a glance that her friend was no ordinary person.
So what if she and Jingchen broke up? It's none of his business to dream about the moon.
Liu Yu stood up and extended her hand to the man: "Hello, my name is Liu Yu."
Lu Yanci shifted his gaze from the man's hand to his face. For Qin Yue's sake, he reached out and shook hands with him, saying succinctly, "Lu Yanci."
Liu Yu was familiar with the name, but couldn't recall where he had heard it before.
After he sat back down, he wanted to talk to her, but he didn't know what to say, and hesitated several times before speaking.
Lu Yanci didn't shy away from Liu Yu and asked Qin Yue, "Would you like us to switch seats?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu's expression changed, and he said somewhat flusteredly, "I'm sorry, did I talk too much just now and annoy you? You don't need to change seats, I'll go find someone else a seat."
Qin Yue shook her head: "It's nothing."
Then she turned her head to Lu Yanci and said, "No need to change it, it won't make a difference."
Liu Yu didn't say another word to her until the performance started.
The little swans, exuding nobility in every gesture, gracefully walked onto the stage, their slender arms outstretched and chins held high with pride. With elegant and flowing dance, they depicted a poignant love story, captivating the audience who were moved by the tale and awestruck by the dance.
The two-hour performance was drawing to a close.
As the curtain fell gracefully, a wave of applause erupted in the hall. A man walked over from the side of the aisle, bowing slightly as he approached Qin Yue: "Miss Qin, Mr. Lu, this way please."
As she stood up, the person next to her hurriedly called her back, stammering, "Qin Yue, I... I... could I possibly have your contact information?"
Qin Yue: "I'm sorry."
He lowered his eyelids sadly, forcing a smile that was more like a grimace: "I'm the one who should apologize. I was the one who was presumptuous."
The person who came to call them was a staff member.
He took the two of them backstage.
Qin Yue asked the silent man beside her, "Did you arrange this?"
Fang Yuanyuan probably wouldn't have thought of having her staff take her backstage.
Lu Yanci did not deny it: "A friend of mine happens to know the person in charge here."
The actors backstage were removing their makeup and changing clothes.
The two waited in the lounge on the other side for nearly twenty minutes. Just as Lu Yan resigned to answer the phone, the door to the lounge was pushed open from the outside.
It's Fang Yuanyuan.
There was a girl in a long dress behind her.
Qin Yue gave the flowers she had prepared to Fang Yuanyuan.
Fang Yuanyuan, holding the flowers, beamed with a big smile: "Thank you!"
The aloof-looking girl next to her nudged Qin Yue's arm upon seeing her and asked in a low voice, "Is this your sister?"
Fang Yuanyuan twitched the corner of her mouth: "Of course, I told you a long time ago, my sister is much prettier than you."
Fang Yuanyuan only talked about how beautiful her older sister was, how she was still single, and how she had many suitors. Liu Mengxin thought that at most her older sister looked similar to Fang Yuanyuan, so how could she be so much prettier?
It's not so much about facial features, but more importantly, an indescribable, captivating charm.
She said she was inviting Fang Yuanyuan and her sister to dinner, and it seems she made the right choice.
Qin Yue took a champagne rose from the wrapped bouquet and handed it to Liu Mengxin: "Your performance was wonderful. The dance was full of soul and left a deep impression on us."
Liu Mengxin's eyes lit up. She carefully held the flowers in her hand. Usually carefree, she blushed when she met the approving look in the other woman's eyes. "Thank you, sister. My name is Liu Mengxin. It's nice to meet you."
"Qin Yue".
But she soon stopped laughing.
Why is there a man with a powerful aura accompanying Sister Qin Yue?
Fang Yuanyuan said carelessly, "Sis, we're starving! How about we go grab a late-night snack? My friend has already made a reservation."
Qin Yue looked at Lu Yanci: "Isn't it too late for you?"
Lu Yanci said it was alright, and the group headed towards the exit.
Fang Yuanyuan and her companion walked behind.
She lowered her voice and asked, "Is this your...cousin?"
Fang Yuanyuan whispered to Liu Mengxin, "No, he's my sister's suitor."
Will suitors go to the show together?
"Could they already be together?"
There's another layer to her invitation to dinner with the two of them.
"No, I asked my sister."
"Well..." Liu Mengxin chuckled awkwardly, "My brother is still waiting for me outside the theater. We can go together, right?"
