Yan Wei's Phone Call

"Is it Xia Yu?" Yan Wei's voice came through the phone.

"It's me," Xia Yu answered.

Without any pleasantries, Yan Wei went straight to the point: "On the 7th of next month, it's my grandma's birthday, and my grandpa asked me to invite some friends."

Yan Wei's intention was very clear, inviting Xia Yu to attend her grandma's birthday party.

"I won't be in A Fang during the National Day..." Xia Yu instinctively wanted to decline, but halfway through, he remembered the identity of Yan Wei's grandpa.

Yan Wei's grandpa is Yan Baiyu, the creator of Baiyu Tangyuan.

"... However, I should still be in A Fang on the 7th," he continued.

"Then I'll send you the address, just mention my name when you arrive," Yan Wei said before hanging up the phone.

Ten seconds later, Xia Yu received the address information.

After noting down the address, Xia Yu replied with an ok emoji.

Seeing this emoji, Yan Wei was somewhat disappointed. Although she knew that Xia Yu would be avoiding her, she didn't expect that Xia Yu wouldn't even have an extra word with her.

"Did you make the appointment?" Yan Wei's friend leaned on her back and asked.

"Yep," Yan Wei nodded her head. It was because of her friend's encouragement that she had the confidence to invite Xia Yu.

"Thank you, Miaomiao," Yan Wei said to her friend.

Facing Yan Wei's gratitude, Le Miaomiao felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't know whether encouraging Yan Wei to hook up with a man who had a girlfriend was a good thing or not.

In ordinary circumstances, she would never teach someone to break up someone else's relationship, but during these days, Yan Wei's mood had been very low. Even when cooking, she cut a slit on the back of her hand, which made Le Miaomiao worry.

She tried many ways to help Yan Wei recover, but only encouraging Yan Wei to dig a hole seemed to work.

"What's so good about that guy? Did he save you when you were young? Or did he save your parents? Why are you so concerned about him?" Le Miaomiao was very puzzled about Yan Wei's persistence.

Yan Wei shook her head, both as a denial and a sign that she didn't want to talk more about this matter.

Seeing Yan Wei's mood lower again, Le Miaomiao quickly changed the subject and began to encourage her anew:

"The fact that he accepted your invitation so readily shows that he still has some feelings for you. Otherwise, who would come to someone else's grandma's birthday party?"

Yan Wei shook her head again, "He's coming because of my grandpa."

"Ah?" Le Miaomiao was astonished, carefully asking, "Does this guy like old grandpas?"

Seeing Yan Wei shook her head, Le Miaomiao was a little disappointed.

"He likes gourmet food, and he's always wanted to meet my grandpa," Yan Wei explained.

"That's also a good thing! Love me, love my dog. If he likes your grandpa, he'll definitely like you too," Le Miaomiao said, not even quite believing it herself.

Yan Wei nodded, her mood seeming to improve a bit.

"Alright, you'll be able to meet your crush in ten days. Let's go buy some nice clothes," Le Miaomiao took Yan Wei's hand and headed towards the mall.

On the other side, Xia Yu was on his way to school.

When he got to class, he received a message from Zhong Yunxin.

I made a friend! Zhong Yunxin sent an emoticon of herself with her hands on her hips.

A friend who doesn't fight back when you bully them? Xia Yu replied.

No, it's a genuine friend who won't bully people! Zhong Yunxin sent another emoticon with fire coming out of her head.

You can still make friends? Xia Yu was as surprised as the emoticon.

It was hard for him to imagine what kind of friend could put up with the bullying tendencies of Zhong Yunxin.

Is her name Air and her nickname Little Sky? Xia Yu sent another message.

Zhong Yunxin sent a photo.

A real person! Pretty, right? She sent an emoticon of a six-armed figure with hands on hips.

Xia Yu looked at the photo.

Her body looked nice, but her face was covered in thick makeup, and her lips looked like those of an evil ghost that had just eaten someone.

Although he had given a ghostly evaluation in his heart, Xia Yu simply replied with 666.

I'll introduce her to you when I get a chance, Zhong Yunxin sent another message.

After sending it, she noticed she had made a typo and added a "she."

Xia Yu's eyes moved up and glanced at the ghostly girl, if not for knowing Zhong Yunxin's peculiar aesthetics, he would've thought she found out about An Siyao's secret and wanted to retaliate.

Instead of taking up the topic, Xia Yu asked Zhong Yunxin to send him a selfie.

Soon, Xin-xin sent the photo, and seeing the girl in normal clothes in the picture, Xia Yu nodded; Zhong Yunxin was indeed obedient for now.

We're going to have fun, I'm leaving first

With this message, Zhong Yunxin went silent.

After putting down the phone, Xia Yu began to think.

It seemed that Zhong Yunxin had found someone like herself, a delinquent, in her new school and they started hanging out together.

This issue might not be a big deal, but it could also lead to more serious consequences.

Humans are not the bravest when they're alone, but with others.

With a new companion, Zhong Yunxin might become even more excessive.

Let's observe for a while, I'll chat more with her these few days, Xia Yu made up his mind.

"Xia Yu!" The teacher on the stage noticed Xia Yu was looking at his phone and called his name, "You, solve this problem on the screen."

The teacher wanted to take this opportunity to teach Xia Yu a lesson but was doomed to fail.

Xia Yu's exam skills were at level 5.

Standing up, Xia Yu answered fluently.

After he finished answering, the teacher on the stage sighed in relief.

After calling Xia Yu out, the teacher instantly regretted it, regretting that he should not have tried to embarrass Xia Yu on a whim.

The counselor had already told them that Xia Yu had significant connections; if Xia Yu lost face, maybe his activities this year would be obstructed.

Now that Xia Yu had answered correctly, he didn't need to worry anymore.

"Well done, well done!" The teacher clapped and gestured for the other students to join in, "You hit the nail right on the head, even better than the reference answer I had prepared."

To make up for his mistake, the teacher praised him enthusiastically.

"I thought Xia Yu, you were playing with your phone in class and wouldn't be able to answer, but I didn't expect you to know all these already," the teacher sighed, "You can sit down and continue playing, there's no need to listen to things you already know."

He looked at the other students again: "You can also do this, but I will ask you a question. If you can't answer it, hehe."

"Teacher, I can do it too!" A student raised his hand.

Unexpectedly, there was really a young man who took it seriously. The teacher was taken aback and noticed that there were quite a few students below who seemed to take it seriously.

So he opened the book and picked a random question from the corner. The student couldn't answer it, so he was asked to copy the answer onto the blackboard five times.

The students below immediately became obedient.

After class, Duan Yi came to Xia Yu and told him that she had decided on a location for her milk tea shop, which would open around the middle or the end of next month.

She chose to join another milk tea brand, the name of the brand is "Not Necessarily".

Nodding his head, Xia Yu promised to return for the opening days.

As a day passed, in the early hours of the second day, Xia Yu connected with Xu Youxiang's slot.

After a moment of darkness, he successfully connected with the body.

He felt a chill on his face.

Reaching out, what he touched was a trace of moisture.
