"Miss Qiu?"
After a few minutes, seeing that Qiu Mengyun didn't say anything and there was no movement, Xia Tian called out tentatively.
"Well, what's wrong?" Qiu Mengyun responded.
"It's okay. I saw that you didn't say anything, so I thought you were drunk and fell asleep." Xia Tian said embarrassedly.
"Hmph! Who are you looking down on? My alcohol tolerance is not that bad." Qiu Mengyun muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Why don't you make a phone call and have someone pick you up. Otherwise, it will be late at night and you might catch a cold sitting here." Xia Tian suggested tentatively.
"How important is your matter that you are in such a hurry to go back?" Qiu Mengyun said somewhat unhappily.
"No, my plan today is to have dinner with you. I saw that you were wearing thin clothes and I was worried that you would catch a cold if you stayed outside for too long." Xia Tian quickly defended himself.
"Don't worry about it. I just sent a message to Sister Lu. She should be here soon." Qiu Mengyun said.
"Oh, that's fine. You sit here and rest for a while. I'll go and unload the barbecue grills and other things." Xia Tian gave Qiu Mengyun instructions, then stood up and started packing.
Qiu Mengyun originally wanted to cancel the lease with Xia Tian, but she gave up in the end after thinking about her identity.
Not long after Xia Tian left, Li Lu rushed here following the location where Qiu Mengyun sent the message.
"Mengyun, didn't you go to dinner with Xia Tian? Why are you here? And where's Xia Tian? Why did he leave you here alone? This guy looks quite reliable, but I didn't expect him to be so irresponsible."
Seeing Qiu Mengyun sitting alone on the grass, Li Lu asked with concern.
"Oh! Sister Lu, don't say that. Things are not what you think. I came here because Xia Tian brought me to the BBQ buffet here. Besides, he didn't abandon me and run away. He knew you were coming soon, so he went to return the things alone." Hearing Li Lu complaining about Xia Tian as soon as she arrived, Qiu Mengyun couldn't help but defend him.
Hearing Qiu Mengyun's words, Li Lu looked at her suspiciously. Then she said sarcastically, "Hey, there's something wrong with you, Mengyun. What's wrong? Did he win you over just because he treated you to a barbecue? I'm telling you, girls, especially a big star like you, must be reserved, understand?"
Qiu Mengyun said in embarrassment: "Sister Lu, what nonsense are you talking about? There is nothing between us. We just had a simple meal."
"Hahaha! Why is your face red? Are you shy?" Seeing Qiu Mengyun's reaction, Li Lu laughed even more happily.
"I'm not blushing. I just drank a little bit of wine and my face is a little red." Qiu Mengyun retorted very firmly.
"What are you talking about? Why are you laughing so happily?" Xia Tian had just come back from delivering something. He heard Li Lu's familiar laughter from a distance and asked casually.
"Hehe! We were just talking about what happened between you and Mengyun tonight. Let me tell you, Mengyun just told me everything that happened between you two tonight. You can't deny it when you go back!" Li Lu said with a smirk on her face when she saw Xia Tian coming over.
Xia Tian was a little bewildered and said, "Ah? What happened between us? What happened between us? We had dinner and drinks together tonight and just watched the stars together. What's there to deny?"
"Xia Tian, don't pay attention to her. Sister Lu is just like that. She likes to talk nonsense and joke around whenever she has nothing to do." In order to prevent Li Lu from continuing to trick Xia Tian, Qiu Mengyun quickly stopped him from continuing to talk about this topic.
"Oh? So just before I arrived, you two were watching the stars together. I don't know what's so special about the stars tonight that they made our Mengyun blush." Li Lu looked at Qiu Mengyun, her eyes full of gossip and curiosity.
"Oh! Stop talking nonsense, let's go back quickly. I'm a little sleepy." Qiu Mengyun ignored Li Lu's curious eyes and pulled her directly towards the parking lot.
On the way back, Li Lu was naturally responsible for driving, and Xia Tian and Qiu Mengyun sat in the back seat.
Li Lu turned around and asked, "Mengyun, I'll take you home first, and then I'll take Xia Tian back. Is that okay?"
Xia Tian quickly shook his head and said, "No need, Sister Lu. Please drop me off at a crowded place in the city. I can take a taxi back by myself."
Qiu Mengyun glared at Xia Tian and said, "Don't worry about him. Just listen to me and drive the car the way I tell you to."
"Sister Lu, turn left at the next intersection."
When they arrived at a traffic light, Qiu Mengyun took the initiative to remind Li Lu in the front row.
Li Lu asked in confusion: "Why do you have to turn left? I don't think you need to go that way to get home?"
Qiu Mengyun: "Nothing, I just remembered that I'm missing something at home, and I want to go buy some when I pass by the mall in front."
After the car entered the route designated by Qiu Mengyun, it drove for another ten minutes before she directed Li Lu to turn again.
Xia Tian sat in the back seat, her eyes closed, unaware of the car's progress. But Li Lu, who was driving, was curious. Meng Yun had said she was going shopping, so why hadn't she stopped after passing two malls? Could it be that she hadn't noticed and missed it?
Seeing another shopping mall appearing ahead, Li Lu kindly reminded: "Mengyun, aren't you going to buy something? There's a shopping mall ahead, should we stop for a while?"
Hearing that the car was going to stop, Xia Tian immediately opened his eyes: "Then let's get off together when we stop. It should be easy to get a taxi near this mall."
