An awkward encounter
She was still hesitating when Peng Weizhe had already pulled her out of the door.
"Otherwise, let's just say you're having dinner with me, and I'll pay you an hour's wages for a one-hour class!"
Finally he muttered another sentence,
"I eat alone every day, it's so dull and flavorless, you know?"
It was this sentence that softened Xu Liu's heart.
She had also seen him eating alone at the large dining table, sometimes when she arrived early, the maid would say he was still having dinner, and through the door of the dining room, she saw him sitting there by himself, mechanically putting food into his mouth now and then, that feeling made her feel that even if the dishes on the table were more abundant, they could not make up for the loneliness in the boy's heart.
When they arrived in Sofia, it was the peak hour for dinner. Peng Weizhe's fluorescent green sports jacket was too eye-catching, and he himself was handsome, so he successfully attracted the attention of the people coming and going in the restaurant. His companion, Xu Liuyi, was directly embarrassed to death. When they went out, she strongly asked him to change into something else, but he refused, and came like that, showy and ostentatious.
Facing the gaze of the crowd, Peng Weizhe didn't have any reaction. He had long been accustomed to such attention. After glancing at the little woman beside him with her eyebrows tightly furrowed, he casually put his arm around her shoulders and walked towards their designated seats.
She noticed his movements and quickly stretched out her hand to brush away the hand he had placed on her shoulder, only to catch sight of several people walking in from outside the door. She froze instantly. Then she remembered that this man had asked her out for dinner earlier that day, but she had refused him...
"Huh? Isn't that......"
Standing beside Lu Zhouyue, Zhuo Tingfeng caught sight of the young couple inside the restaurant and swallowed back the name that was about to escape his lips, instead poking Lu Zhouyue with his hand.
Lu Zhou was having a splitting headache at this moment, and in the afternoon, Zhuo Tingfeng, who was eager to stir up trouble, heard that Yan Haonan and Tang Yuchan had arrived in N City. Without saying another word, he also followed them over, claiming it was to reunite with old friends, but actually to watch him make a fool of himself.
So at this moment, Zhuo Tingfen poked him twice again. He couldn't help but turn his head and roar at him angrily.
"What's going on?"
However, upon seeing Zhuo Tingfeng's expression of good fortune and bad luck, he followed Zhuo Tingfeng's line of sight and looked over. His already ugly face suddenly turned gloomy, even Yan Haonan and Tang Yuhanchen who were following behind him were startled. The two also followed his gaze and immediately understood something.
That girl, thin and weak, wearing simple clothes, not coquettish, not charming, to those who have seen countless women, she didn't stand out at a glance, especially since she was being held in the arms of that dazzling boy.
As for the female lead's absence from tonight's dinner party, according to the explanation of that person who is now furious, she had something to do at night. It turns out that what she meant by having something to do at night was to openly flirt with a young and handsome guy in the grand hall under the eyes of everyone, and even held hands with him?
Lu Zhouyue's current mood can no longer be described with words like "wanting to kill someone". He only feels that his already uncomfortable stomach suddenly has a raging fire burning inside, and this is what she means by "having something on at night"? He thinks he really has been too indulgent towards her, to the point where she's become so unscrupulous.
Today is the third watch, the first watch.
