Lu Juyan and Du Yanqing strolled around the streets, and from time to time, the two of them would play around and the atmosphere would be like that of a lover's kiss. They shot a glance at the restaurant called Oneeyetosettle and both of them simultaneously looked at each other. Then, very naturally, they walked in.
After looking around, Du Yanqing coincidentally saw Zhan Ziye, and noticed that the scene was Zhan Ziye teasing the female student. The two's actions seemed very intimate, but it actually made her feel the expression on Xiao Yanqing's face.
”I still have lessons in the afternoon, can I go back first?”
Unwillingly being too close to Zhan Ziye, Xiao Yanqing subconsciously leaned back, keeping a certain distance between him and her. A pair of eyes similar to Du Yanqing's revealed a complicated expression, as though they really wanted to leave this place. Her cheeks were slightly red from what Zhan Ziye had said, and she had her head lowered as she asked.
Xiao Yanqing, who was not proficient at speaking words of rejection, could only use the excuse of learning to go back and forth between Zhan Ziye's words. His tone was extremely tactful, and had the strange feeling that she hadn't looked at the calendar when she went out today. His heart was in extreme torment, afraid that Zhan Ziye would do something that she couldn't accept.
”Tsk, Young Master Zhan, there are so many people by your side. Why are you bullying a little girl?”
Du Yanqing walked over to the two of them with a kind smile on his face, and started teasing Zhan Ziye. Staring at Xiao Yan's face, he vaguely felt that she looked a little familiar. For some reason, he felt that she was very close to him.
This sudden voice made Zhan Ziye's heart tighten, and he immediately released the hand on Xiao Yan Qing's shoulder. Only when they suddenly noticed his lack of manners did they restrain their nervousness. Calmly turning his head and meeting Du Yanqing's clear eyes, he pretended to be calm and took a sip of his tea.
Without waiting for Zhan Ziye to finish speaking, Xiao Yan Qing suddenly stood up and politely bowed to him to show his appreciation for his help. He said gratefully, ”Mr. Zhan, I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first!”
The moment she finished speaking, she ran out of the room as if she was fleeing for her life, completely forgetting about her promise to invite Zhan Ziye out for a meal. His chest was heaving from running, and his heart rate was different from normal.
Xiao Yan only stopped when he was tired. He took a glance behind him out of the blue and did not find anyone around. She secretly let out a sigh of relief, but deep inside her heart, she felt a faint sense of loss.
”Tsk, it seems like this young lady doesn't like you either!”
Du Yanqing, who had witnessed Xiao Yan Qing's departure, gave Zhan Ziye a sympathetic glance and patted him on the shoulder, calmly opening her mouth to tease him. He was not the least bit embarrassed, as if the two of them were very close.
”Ha, really? I'm rushing back to class! ”
Zhan Ziye glanced at Xiao Yanqing's departing figure and did not feel anything. He shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and as he faced this sympathetic gaze, he did not care at all, and very naturally, replied Du Yanqing. His lips rippled with an unruly smile. It was very consistent with his distinguished and elegant face, and he didn't seem to care about the aura of a prodigal son at all.
Lu Juyan, who was at the side, was watching the person he loved talking to his good brother passionately, leaving him alone. This made him feel extremely unhappy. A tasteless feeling emerged from the bottom of his heart as he deliberately walked forward a few steps to stand by Du Yanqing's side.
