Chen Yan was shocked.
However, the girls in the room didn't know the real reason for his shock.
They simply thought he was… flattered.
So, they all looked at each other, and saw a smile in each other's eyes.
Even Yang Nuan, who had been first skeptical about Chen Yan's approach tonight, couldn't help showing a warm smile.
Chen Yan's performance made her feel that she might have thought too much before:
It's exactly like what she had seen, a boy suddenly surprised by the person he likes.
Of course, others can rest assured that was the case but, Yu Qiaoqiao felt that he didn't like the gift.
Since seeing Chen Yan standing there blankly, she was having mixed emotions and bad thoughts intruded her mind.
She soon asked in a low voice, "Did you...do not like the gift I gave you?"
Yu Qiaoqiao's soft yet trembling voice awoke Chen Yan.
He shook his head quickly, "No, no."
"I am..."
"How do I say it..."
Chen Yan scratched his head. For the first time, he felt that things were a bit puzzling.
"Hmm... I didn't expect it."
After all, he hadn't thought that his Yunyang girlfriend would give him a gift since he was solely focused on the goal of coaxing Yu Qiaoqiao.
But, when the group of sisters saw him stumbling his words, they couldn't help but grin.
Unisonly thought, 'Chen Yan must really like Yu Qiaoqiao.'
When Chen Yan finished talking about his feelings and looked at Yu Qiaoqiao's cautious look. For a while, the softest part of his heart seemed to be touched.
He walked over, took the initiative to take the gift, and said sincerely, "Thank you, Qiaoqiao."
When Chen Yan took the initiative to take the gift, two pink clouds climbed onto Yu Qiaoqiao's cheeks, she said shyly, "Don't think about it. This is...yes...is a return."
Chen Yan hurriedly replied: "Oh, Don't worry! I won't think anything of it."
The other people in the room were dumbfounded at their sweet yet dumb conversation.
Following Chen Yan's answer, the room became quiet for a while.
Everyone didn't speak, watching the pair attentively.
Chen Yan and Yu Qiaoqiao, two people who have never been in love, were also nervous and didn't know what to say. Simply standing, stealing glances at each other and when one caught the other's gaze, they would immediately turn their head away in a shy manner.
Minutes passed when Yu Qiaoqiao suddenly raised her head cautiously and asked,"Open the gift and see if you like it?"
Chen Yan quickly "oh oh" twice, and asked, "Just open it on the spot?"
Yu Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded by the question.
She didn't understand either.
She stared at Chen Yan with her big eyes, "Then... or do you want to open it at home?."
Chen Yan felt stumped.
He looked at Yu Qiaoqiao's big crystal eyes, and blinked, "Then, Can I go home to open it?."
Yu Qiaoqiao: "...."
Chen Yan: "....."
The atmosphere seemed to become deafeningly silent.
In the end, Zhao Ying couldn't stand it as she stood up abruptly and said, "If you don't open it, I will open it!"
The others quickly were shocked.
At this time, the atmosphere became active, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
And Chen Yan... finally stopped being confused.
He blushed, coughed twice, and put the gift behind his back, "Forget it, forget it, I'll wait and open it when I get back home."
The matter was successfully resolved. The scene gradually calmed down. Everyone pretended that nothing happened and started to play around in the restaurant.
But they didn't know why. There are still seven people, but the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird and ambiguous. On the contrary, it is not as harmonious as it was at first.
Especially for the two parties, Chen Yan is always surprised from time to time, and Yu Qiaoqiao always keeps her head down and does not speak. It's made the atmosphere more difficult to describe.
The sisters in the dormitory saw that the two protagonists were absent-minded, and they were not in the mood to continue playing. So they ended the party early and left the restaurant.
This time Chen Yan didn't turn his head and left, but sent them back to Kotoshima University.
They separated at the east gate as Chen Yan went home, and a few girls walked to the dormitory carrying the leftover pastries.
Without Chen Yan, the little sisters felt relieved and they could speak freely.
"That's right. Sister Nuan, how much did it cost Chen Yan to invite us to dinner tonight?"
Yang Nuan thought about the pile of dishes ordered tonight and the close service of the waiter. She hesitated and said vaguely, "I don't think it's cheap…."
One of the three sisters held up her mobile phone and said, "I posted a bit of what we ate in our circle of friends and the comments all exploded!"
"They said that I actually ordered so much food."
"Some people say that it costs at least three thousand yuan to eat these." ($46,999 [an estimate])
When she said that, the other two of the three sisters yelled suddenly.
"So expensive?"
"Oh my God. I have eaten a month of living expenses!?"
Even Zhao Ying, who had never cared, moved her eyes slightly, obviously she didn't expect Chen Yan to spend so much money.
While walking silently, Yu Qiaoqiao suddenly raised her head and said in surprise, "That much?"
Yang Nuan glared at the girl and then said to Yu Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao. It's just an estimate,"
Yu Qiaoqiao's mouth became an "O", "But...it must be expensive. It's not good to spend other people's money like this."
Yang Nuan looked at her sisters and comforted, "Don't worry!."
"You don't have to worry about it, we will arrange it at that time. After all, we eat a lot."
Yu Qiaoqiao shook her head a little stubbornly, "This is not good. Chen Yan only treats guests because of me."
Yang Nuan looked at the others and said, "Then, you too. Let's call Chen Yan back together."
Yu Qiaoqiao nodded slightly, and began to calculate,
Three thousand yuan...
So many zeros.
Isn't that scholarship money?
Looking at Yu Qiaoqiao like that, Yang Nuan sighed slightly.
She looked at the bright moon in the sky, and looked at the chirping and inexperienced sisters around her, but she had deeper worries in her heart: 'Did this meal really cost three thousand yuan?.'
Why does it feel that it was more than that?
….
Back at the dormitory, the three little sisters wanted to go wash, but Yang Nuan stopped them with a wink.
Yu Qiaoqiao originally wanted to wash up with Zhao Ying, but Zhao Ying refused under Yang Nuan's eyes. She said she was too tired as an excuse.
Yu Qiaoqiao found no abnormalities because no one was with her, so she could only wash by herself.
After she left, Yang Nuan poked her head out and looked at the corridor, locked the door, and said, "Sisters, I have something to say."
"I feel that something is not quite right tonight."
Yang Nuan began to talk about her discovery tonight.
For example, there seems to be a few waiters standing outside the restaurant, blocking customers who want to enter the store.
For example, the waiter is too enthusiastic about this party.
For example, Mr. Chen Yan secretly communicated with the waiter.
For example... I didn't see Chen Yan going to checkout, etc.
All this shows that this meal tonight is actually not simple.
Hearing Yang Nuannuan say this, the sisters looked at each other, shocked.
Zhao Ying also frowned.
After a while, she raised her head and said seriously, "So, do you mean... Chen Yan is a dark and evil force, trying to feed us to suddenly kill us next time?."
Yang Nuan: "??"
The other sisters: "??"
