The man, upon seeing Li Yan'er's gaze fixed on him, found himself at a loss for words for a moment. He hadn't had lunch yet since he'd been so focused on finding Li Yan'er that he hadn't cared about appearances, only wanting to take her back home.
"Then, let's go have lunch,"
Li Yan'er understood the hesitation in his expression and took the initiative to speak up.
When he heard Li Yan'er's suggestion, the man's lips curled into a smile, and he nodded in agreement.
"What's your name? I'm Lin Yu."
"My name is Li Yan'er."
"Yan'er?"
Hearing Lin Yu use this nickname for her, Li Yan'er was taken aback, as it was a nickname she'd never heard before.
"Yeah, didn't you know? I returned from studying abroad, so you can just call me Lin Yu,"
Lin Yu explained.
"Oh, I see, then, Lin... Brother Yu."
Li Yan'er hesitated for a bit before she corrected herself.
"Mm, that's right, Yan'er, from now on, just call me Lin Yu."
