In the dining room, the air felt thick with curiosity, especially from the two girls, Mara and Hannah, who sat across from Hirvan. They exchanged sly glances, their eyes darting from Hirvan to Lu Hanbing, then over to Fu Yan, all while trying to remain discreet. But their confusion was plain on their faces. Mara leaned slightly toward Hannah, whispering.
"Who is this guy? We all know Fu Yan as Hirvan's friend-slashed potential boyfriend. But now there's this handsome stranger sitting between them. What's going on?"
Hannah leaned in, nodding in agreement. "Exactly. When Hirvan transferred schools and Fu Yan disappeared too, we all assumed he went after Hirvan and officially became his boyfriend. But now, this new guy shows up? Who is he? Why was he with Fu Yan?"
On the other side of the table, Anita narrowed her eyes at her nephew, her lips curling into a wry smile. She leaned forward slightly, her gaze fixed on Hirvan with an almost predatory curiosity.
