Su Yunxiu had no idea that rumors had been spread behind her back, but she didn't want to care about the thoughts of others. She just wanted to live her own life.
Tomorrow was the day she was going to Beijing. In order to send her off, Lin Qingwan invited her close friends over for dinner.
Lin Qingwan spent a lot of effort and got Yu Wenci's help to pull Chen Zexi over.
Others might not be able to tell what her attitude towards Chen Zexi was, but Su Yunxiu, who had been her best friend for so many years, could tell at a glance that her thoughts towards Chen Zexi were not simple.
While Yu Zitong was pulling them to play King, Su Yunxiu leaned over and asked, "Are you tempted?"
"Yes." Lin Qingwan nodded. She was drunk and looked at him with misty eyes. "He looks good."
Su Yunxiu raised an eyebrow. "Just because he looks good?"
Lin Qingwan couldn't think of anything else.
It seemed like…
The first thing on her mind was lust.
"Xiuxiu, I won't be able to see you tomorrow. I can't bear to."
Lin Qingwan hugged her tightly.
Su Yunxiu was used to sticking close to her, so she was very calm now. "It's fine. When we're free, we can video call and I can play games with you."
"Okay!"
Her voice was soft.
Su Yunxiu could not help but pinch her face. It was quite comfortable.
"Sister Xiu Xiu, what are you guys whispering about? Come and play a game with me." After saying that, Yu Zitong came over to pull her back. "Come and play a game with me."
"I'm not playing anymore. I drank a little too much just now and it will affect my performance," Lin Qingwan refused.
Only Su Yunxiu was left. Yu Zitong's soft and adorable gaze attacked Su Yunxiu, who couldn't withstand it at all and nodded in agreement.
"Then the three of us will go together."
Her finger hovered over the three of them.
"Three people? Isn't it four people?" Su Yunxiu blurted out.
"It's three people. I don't want to play games with Brother Zexi. He can't even use his skills properly." Yu Zitong's expression was very arrogant.
Chen Zexi was speechless
Was he being despised?
Forget it, forget it. He wouldn't argue with a little kid.
The three of them had already entered the room and started playing.
Chen Zexi sat down beside Lin Qingwan and asked, "Why don't you go over and play?"
Lin Qingwan was silent for a few seconds before asking, "Do you think there's still a place for me?"
Chen Zexi looked over. The three of them were sitting cross-legged on the carpet, their fingers flying across the screen. Those who did not know the truth would probably think that they were family.
Chen Zexi was shocked by this thought.
"Now you know why I refused."
Chen Zexi's face was full of understanding.
"By the way, what does her family do?"
Lin Qingwan's gaze paused, and the smile on her face faded a little. "What's wrong? Is she not good enough for President Yu?"
"I don't have such thoughts. I'm just curious."
He was thinking about what kind of family could nurture such an outstanding girl. She had a scholarly aura and was neither arrogant nor impatient. When she smiled, there were dimples at the corners of her mouth, making people like her.
"Shh! Xiuxiu's family's situation is quite complicated, so don't say it in front of her. Even though you're just curious, that's the pain in her heart."
Everyone had an unknown side.
Su Yunxiu was no exception. She was usually gentle, but deep down, she was more sensitive because of her family.
She always wanted to do her best because she was afraid that others would dislike her like her mother.
Chen Zexi became more and more curious, but since Lin Qingwan had already said so, he couldn't get to the bottom of it.
Lin Qingwan looked at the man beside her. Using her drunkenness as an excuse, she held her head and leaned over. "Aiya! My head is so dizzy."
The topic was suddenly changed. Before Chen Zexi could react, her arms were wrapped around him and her head was leaning against his arm.
Chen Zexi was stunned for a few seconds. He wanted to pull his arm out, but she was hugging him too tightly. He could not pull his arm out!
"Don't move. Let me lean on you for a while, just for a while," the little girl wheedled.
It wasn't that Chen Zexi didn't have any girls chasing after him, but he had never seen one doing so blatantly.
Her eyes were filled with love and she never hid it.
Chen Zexi felt that she was a little different from the daughters of wealthy families he knew in the past. She was more forthright.
Sensing that he did not push her away, Lin Qingwan closed her eyes and smiled.
The next morning, Su Yunxiu carried her luggage and drove to the airport.
She didn't like to part ways, so when Lin Qingwan said she wanted to send her off, Su Yunxiu refused.
She had promised Lin Qingwan that she would report her safety to the group after landing. Su Yunxiu had also kept her promise and appeared in the group.
Su Yunxiu: [I've landed.]
Lin Qingwan: [It's good that you're there. When are you performing? I'll definitely watch the live stream!]
Su Yunxiu chuckled and typed: [I'm not sure yet. The rehearsal time is tentatively one and a half months.]
As she walked, she was suddenly blocked.
Su Yunxiu didn't look up and moved to the side. She realized that the other party was also moving with her.
Su Yunxiu only raised her head after encountering the same situation twice in a row. Her eyes were like limpid autumn water, carrying a hint of displeasure. "Sir, did you do it on purpose?"
The man in front of her had blond hair and was dressed in a hip-hop style. Su Yunxiu frowned and could not help but wonder if she had met a punk who was up to no good.
"Sorry, let me introduce myself first. My name is Cheng Huai. I came to pick you up. I was waiting for you here half an hour ago."
"Pick me up?" Su Yunxiu laughed. "We're in public. Are all human traffickers so arrogant nowadays? Your excuse for kidnapping someone is so lousy."
Cheng Huai: "No, I'm not a human trafficker. I'm a good person."
"Bad people never call themselves bad people." The little girl's fair face was still vigilant, and every word she said made sense.
This was the first time Cheng Huai had been mistaken for a human trafficker. He was so angry that he laughed and posed. "Have you ever seen such a handsome human trafficker?"
Su Yunxiu was dumbfounded.
It seemed that there was something wrong with this big brother's brain.
Not wanting to waste her breath, Su Yunxiu planned to leave quickly and get to the school.
Cheng Huai panicked and stopped her again. He took out his phone to prove it to her. "Miss Su, Old Yu asked me to pick you up. If you don't believe me, look. We're even in the same group!"
Su Yunxiu stopped in her tracks and carefully read through it. Only then did she confirm that what he said was true.
"I… I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Cheng Huai smiled nonchalantly and took her suitcase. "It's fine. Old Yu knew that you were coming over today. When he knew that I was here, he asked me to pick you up. I've already arranged a place for you to stay."
"This is too troublesome."
Had the arrangements been made just like that?
"It's no trouble at all. It's nothing. In a few days, when Old Yu comes, we will gather and you can come too."
"But…"
"No buts. It's a deal. The car is there. Let's go."
Cheng Huai's attitude was enthusiastic, not giving her a chance to refuse at all.
It had not been easy for him to realize someone's happiness.
Yet a handsome face like his was treated as one that belonged to a human trafficker.
