Wang Xiangyang watched the scene in front of him, exchanged a couple of glances with the little girl, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Yi Pin seemed unfazed, as if he had long gotten used to such things. He simply murmured that it was okay and casually took a tissue to wipe himself.
"Come on... Aren't you two the ones being oblivious to the surroundings?" A contemptuous smile curled Wang Xiangyang's lips as he looked at Yi Pin. "Weren't you saying just a few days ago that you two were sworn enemies? But now you seem quite chummy."
A smile tugged at Shen Yu's lips. He glanced at the two somewhat puzzled people beside him and pursed his lips.
He stared directly at Yi Pin while he was eating, looking extremely at ease without the slightest bit of restraint. He kept putting food on Yi Pin's plate, a smile on his lips as he watched Yi Pin enjoying his meal, performing a series of actions like a fierce tiger.
Shen Yu just kept piling food on Yi Pin's plate, the corners of his mouth curving upwards.
"Aren't you the one who said you wanted to eat hot pot? I don't see you eating much!" Wang Xiangyang raised his eyebrows at Shen Yu.
Shen Yu just smiled faintly and said nothing. Yi Pin glanced at the two of them, paused for a moment. It seemed that every time Shen Yu did things like this, sometimes it seemed intentional, sometimes not. So Yi Pin never really felt burdened.
The little girl, with a smile on her lips, spoke in a coquettish voice to Wang Xiangyang in front of her: "Honey, it's hot!"
Wang Xiangyang quickly blew on it: "Honey, it's okay now!"
Shen Yu and Yi Pin frowned simultaneously, looking utterly disdainful and helpless.
"Hey... how about... you two go outside?" Yi Pin pursed his lips. "You're ruining my appetite!"
The little girl looked aggrieved. She glanced at Yi Pin, then at Wang Xiangyang, pouted and said softly: "Honey, look at your friend. Does he have something against me? He's been picking on me all day."
Shen Yu frowned and gave the little girl a sidelong glance.
"He's just like this. He's always been like this. How could he be picking on you!" Wang Xiangyang looked at the little girl and said helplessly.
The little girl thought she should have been the leading lady, but Yi Pin had stolen all the limelight. Both Wang Xiangyang and Shen Yu had been piling food on Yi Pin's plate, and they'd even ordered all of Yi Pin's favorite dishes. It seemed they were always on Yi Pin's side.
The little girl's mouth twitched, a surge of anger rising in her heart. She deliberately knocked over the dipping sauce, pouring it all over Yi Pin's clothes. The white T - shirt was completely stained with the red, oily sauce.
"Sorry, sorry. I didn't see clearly." The little girl spoke in a coquettish voice. Tears welled up in her eyes instantly. She gave Wang Xiangyang, who was full of anger, a wronged look. She was a bit dazed. This was the first time she'd seen Wang Xiangyang look so livid. No matter how spoiled or excessive she'd been in the past, he'd never shown such an expression.
"You... did that on purpose, didn't you?" Yi Pin looked at the little girl, frowned, and walked towards the restroom on his own.
Shen Yu also frowned. He looked at the little girl and said menacingly: "You should be glad you're a girl, or I'd definitely have you carried out of here!"
A glint of hostility flashed in Shen Yu's cold and proud eyes. He spoke seriously and then walked towards the restroom as well.
The little girl was startled. She thought no one had noticed and that her plan was foolproof.
"Wang Xiangyang, let's break up." The little girl looked at Wang Xiangyang, who remained unmoved, frowned, and her eyes were teary.
"Sure, I was just about to say the same thing!" Wang Xiangyang shrugged and smiled.
He changed girlfriends as often as he changed clothes, but he'd always felt a bit dazed. He could tolerate a girl being spoiled, but if a girl showed the slightest bit of disrespect to Yi Pin, he'd feel uncomfortable.
Looking at Wang Xiangyang in front of her, the little girl ran out crying.
As soon as Yi Pin stepped into the restroom, Shen Yu followed.
"What? Come to watch the joke? Rejoice in my misfortune?" Yi Pin was trying to wipe his clothes with his hands and tissues, but it was impossible to clean them completely. He was getting irritated.
"Put this on!" Shen Yu silently took off his own jacket, a Gucci casual sports jacket. As long as the zipper was pulled up, no one would notice what was inside.
After much hesitation, thinking it wasn't very civilized to be bare - chested, Yi Pin took off his clothes, revealing his abs. He picked up the jacket and put it on.
Shen Yu glanced at those well - defined abs and the fair skin. He suddenly felt a bit flustered, turned his head away, a faint smile playing on his lips.
The jacket fit perfectly. Maybe it was because of Yi Pin's good figure. It looked really nice on him.
"What about this one? It can't be cleaned, right?" Yi Pin looked blankly at the clothes in his hand. This was a gift from his grandma. She'd said that white clothes suited Yi Pin well, and he'd always liked it and cherished it.
Yi Pin looked at Shen Yu, looking really reluctant.
Shen Yu looked at Yi Pin thoughtfully, took the clothes from his hand, and walked out.
"What are you doing with my clothes?" Yi Pin frowned, looking a bit confused.
"Throw it away!" Shen Yu smiled with the corners of his mouth curving up.
When Yi Pin returned to the table, he only saw Wang Xiangyang sitting there. He was a bit confused. Where was that scheming little girl? If it weren't for the fact that she was Wang Xiangyang's girlfriend, he would have really loathed her. She'd kept putting food on Shen Yu's plate with a smile on her lips.
"Where's the little girl?" Yi Pin gave Wang Xiangyang a sidelong glance and asked curiously.
"She's gone. We broke up!" Wang Xiangyang said nonchalantly, a smile on his lips.
"Heartbreaker!" Yi Pin pursed his lips, smiling helplessly.
Shen Yu, beside them, had a contemptuous smile on his lips as he watched the two of them.
"All this is for whose sake? And you still call me a heartbreaker." Wang Xiangyang frowned, looking wronged.
"Can you blame this on me? You're just using me as an excuse, honey!" Yi Pin imitated the little girl's voice and called out honey. The smile on his lips grew wider.
Shen Yu watched from the side and was a bit dazed. The corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.
The three of them chatted and laughed. Shen Yu just watched from the side. Yi Pin would chime in occasionally, but Wang Xiangyang was definitely the one livening up the atmosphere. He kept cracking stupid jokes while laughing.
After the meal, the three of them walked out of the restaurant. Shen Yu went to the parking lot to get the car, while Yi Pin and Wang Xiangyang walked beside the road.
"Weren't you saying that you two were sworn enemies? How come I see you two getting along so well today?" Wang Xiangyang said nonchalantly, giving Yi Pin a sidelong glance.
"No. He did such an excessive thing. How could I ever forgive him..." As Yi Pin said this, he felt a bit guilty. It was true that his relationship with Shen Yu had eased up invisibly, but whenever he thought of the sad figure of his uncle when he left, he felt ashamed.
The two of them chatted idly. Shen Yu drove a Ferrari over, a smile on his lips: "Get in the car."
Yi Pin looked at Wang Xiangyang: "Let's go."
"You two go first. I'm not going the same way. And I'm going to look for my next girlfriend. This time I'll find a mature and charming woman." Wang Xiangyang grinned mischievously, waved goodbye to Yi Pin and Shen Yu, and then turned around and walked away on his own.
