Xu Pei's gaze fell on Luo Xiaoqian, with a slight darkening in her eyes, but her expression remained unchanged; she immediately came over with a smile, "Come on, Xiaoqian, let me introduce you, all these people are childhood friends (Note: Beijing dialect, refers to friends who have been playing together since childhood) of me and Zimo."
"Xiaoqian!" Huangfu Ruo put down the iPad in her hands and came up to greet her with a face full of joy, grabbing Luo Xiaoqian's arm and kissing her on the cheek, "It's great, Zimo finally decided to let you out, ho, ho, ho, Brother Yizhou, Sister Tongya... hurry, hurry, you have to honour the bet..."
Shen Yizhou and Tong Ya exchanged glances before each took out their wallets, extracted all the cash inside, and handed it over to Huangfu Ruo's outstretched palm.
"Thanks a lot!" Huangfu Ruo proudly flaunted the thick stack of cash in her hand to Qin Lan, who, seeing the happy smile on her face, also raised a smile.
