After saying goodbye to everyone, Mo Xiaoqing apologized to Tangyu, "I'm sorry, Tangyu. I used you as a shield again because I really didn't want to go out with him. There were other teachers around, and it wasn't appropriate for me to refuse directly, so I used you as a shield. I'm really sorry."
Tangyu curled his lip and said, "It's okay, it counts as helping others, and I'm used to it. Looking at it from another angle, the fact that you can use me as a shield is also an honor for me. At least in your eyes, I still have the value of being a shield, haha."
With a blush and a giggle, Mo Xiaoqing said, "You're really too kind; I still thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I can't imagine what would have happened today. I might not have been able to continue at Linshan Middle School. I owe you a big favor. Since we're talking about it, do you have any plans tonight, Tangyu? I'd like to invite you for dinner."
"Are we going to your place again?" Tangyu asked.
