Bai Ruyan and her sister were walking at the very end of the group with Wang Chen.
Recalling the scene of their farewell just now, Yao Ruyi said with a meaningful smile, "Wang Chen, did that village chief surnamed Wen seem interested in you just now?"
Hearing this, Wang Chen appeared startled and quickly waved his hands, saying, "I just met her today, and moreover, she is a career village chief while I'm just a nobody from the countryside, how could she possibly like someone like me?"
"But the way she looked at you just now was somewhat different from how she looks at ordinary people."
Yao Ruyi paused for a moment then added, "Especially when she said she would see you again soon, it made us all feel like she might be interested in you."
Bai Ruyan also said with a strange expression, "I think she's particularly interested in you, did you know each other already? Otherwise, how could she be so enthusiastic about just an afternoon's acquaintance?"
