Mo Yan said he had asked the professor for two classes off, then asked Xia Bing what she was laughing about earlier.
Xia Bing told Mo Yan about the incident, just changing the characters in the story.
“Aunt Wen just went to sleep, so we shouldn’t disturb her. I haven’t finished shopping, and now that you’re here, you can help me.” Xia Bing dragged Mo Yan away.
Chen Lu saw Cheng Yuanqun looking at the two people at the staircase turn, “It seems this young lady who didn’t want to go on a blind date has a good boyfriend. They look quite well-matched.”
Cheng Yuanqun felt a bit uncomfortable hearing Chen Lu say this. He thought he was quite handsome, yet she looked down on him, feeling like a toy that had been snatched away.
Lu Yiyi insisted, “Now that I’m here, what am I afraid of? Are you really willing to let me be blindly married off by my father, watching me live a life of misery? If you can bear to see that, then leave.”
Xia Bing’s lips twitched. She really wanted to leave, but Lu’s young lady was still gripping her wrist, making it impossible for her to go.
“Stop being disgusting. Fine, I agree.”
Lu Yiyi quickly shed her dejected look. “If you had agreed earlier, I wouldn’t have needed to disgust you.” Xia Bing could only remain silent, thinking she must have been blind to ever consider Lu Yiyi a gentle and kind lady from a good family. How she regretted her initial impression.
Lu Yiyi pushed open the door and saw a tall, broad back.
When that figure turned around, Xia Bing felt an urge to run away because she recognized the person.
Xia Hou Zun glanced casually at the newcomer, showing no unusual expression when he saw Xia Bing.
Xia Bing nervously tugged at Lu Yiyi’s clothes, hoping she would change her mind, as she didn’t want to die ‘gloriously’ next.
Lu Yiyi, seeming oblivious, pulled Xia Bing inside and introduced them, “I’m Xia Bing, and this is Lu Yiyi.”
Xia Bing again pulled Lu Yiyi’s clothes, trying to warn her that the man before them was not someone they could provoke.
