Actually, Shen Yu wasn't sure about his true feelings at that time, so he got involved with Fu Xiaotong. But all they did was take walks and have meals together. They didn't even hold hands.
This feeling was inexplicable. Yi Pin ate his meal silently, but somehow the food tasted bland.
Shen Yu kept smiling faintly, staring directly at Yi Pin in front of him and silently putting food on his plate. But this scene annoyed Fu Xiaotong.
"Yi Pin, why didn't you say you took on this case too?" Gu Yang asked seriously, looking at Yi Pin.
Yi Pin didn't know how to answer for a moment. He really hadn't thought this through because he didn't expect things to be so coincidental.
"He told me!" Shen Yu said coldly, with a faint smile on his lips and a glimmer of amusement on his face.
Yi Pin glanced at Shen Yu, looking blank.
Shen Yu curled up the corners of his mouth, winked at Yi Pin, looking extremely annoying.
This expression made Fu Xiaotong suspicious. Why did Shen Yu always protect Yi Pin? Why did everything he said involve Yi Pin?
After the meal, Yi Pin felt a bit tired and wanted to go home to rest. But Fu Xiaotong insisted that they all go out and play together, which led to what happened next.
The four of them sat in the private room, feeling a bit awkward and the atmosphere was rather cold.
Yi Pin never liked to be noisy in front of strangers. Shen Yu and Gu Yang were both quiet types who usually just sat there coolly.
At this moment, Fu Xiaotong chose a love song and sang it to Shen Yu affectionately, as if there was no one else in her eyes.
Yi Pin felt inexplicably irritated.
None of the other three showed any intention of singing. Fu Xiaotong's eyes darted around and she said they should play "Truth or Dare".
So the three men had no choice but to play with her to humor her.
First, the bottle stopped at Gu Yang.
"Truth or dare?" Fu Xiaotong asked with a smile.
"Truth!" Gu Yang shrugged and smiled.
"Who will ask the question?"
Fu Xiaotong asked excitedly again, with a faint smile on her lips.
"I'll do it. I'm a fan of Brother Gu Yang. One of the reasons I want to be a lawyer is because of Brother Gu Yang. I just want to ask how Brother Gu Yang wins every case?"
Yi Pin curled up the corners of his mouth and looked at Gu Yang.
"Wow, really? I'm honored!" Gu Yang raised his eyebrows, looking shocked and excited. He looked at Yi Pin in front of him and then glanced back at Shen Yu, whose face was turning blue.
"Actually, no one is invincible. I've also failed and felt like I couldn't go on. But as long as you think this is the path you've chosen, it won't seem so difficult!"
Gu Yang said slowly with a smile, curling up the corners of his mouth.
"Okay, next!" Fu Xiaotong couldn't wait to start the next round. As she wished, it was Yi Pin's turn.
Yi Pin looked at the three pairs of malicious eyes in front of him and suddenly felt a bit flustered. These people all looked shifty-eyed and were clearly up to no good.
"Truth or dare?" Fu Xiaotong curled up the corners of her mouth and looked at Yi Pin. There was a glimmer of amusement in her eyes, mixed with a bit of hatred.
"Dare!"
Yi Pin frowned, feeling a bit embarrassed, but still looked at the other three silently.
"How about you call your ex-girlfriend?" Fu Xiaotong thought for a moment. There was a glimmer of amusement on her face, mixed with a bit of malice, as if she had planned this all along.
"I don't have an ex-girlfriend!" Yi Pin said awkwardly, scratching his head. It was a bit embarrassing to say, but he really had never had a girlfriend.
"Seems so!" Yi Pin wasn't quite sure. Although he always flirted with others, he had never really fallen in love or had a relationship with anyone.
"Hmm?" Fu Xiaotong frowned, as if deep in thought.
The corners of Shen Yu's mouth involuntarily curled up. He had thought this good-looking kid would surely have a lot of people chasing after him, but he hadn't expected that no one had caught his eye.
"Impossible. You... can't lie!" Fu Xiaotong looked incredulous. She really couldn't believe that Yi Pin had never had a girlfriend. Why was that? Did he have some physical or mental problems?
"I've said it's true. Don't make things difficult for him. How about this? I'll drink three glasses of wine as a penalty on his behalf, okay?"
Shen Yu frowned. He couldn't bear to see the exhausted Yi Pin being tortured by them anymore. Besides, he was used to protecting Yi Pin.
Fu Xiaotong frowned, looking unhappy.
Yi Pin felt a bit embarrassed and said coldly, "I'll do it myself!"
So he downed three glasses of wine in a row. He only felt a burning sensation in his throat. The alcohol was quite strong.
After that, Yi Pin finally realized how scary it could be when a girl got drunk. Maybe Fu Xiaotong was in a bad mood or wanted to get drunk to forget her troubles. Anyway, she was staggering around, holding the wine bottle and acting very scary.
Yi Pin didn't dare to say much. He just silently stayed by her side, watching the out-of-control Fu Xiaotong.
Fu Xiaotong kept hanging on Shen Yu's shoulder, crying.
"A Yu, I know you still love me. Let's start over, okay?..."
Yi Pin watched this scene with a cold face, but his heart was aching. It wasn't because he felt sorry for the wailing Fu Xiaotong, but because he saw that Shen Yu didn't push Fu Xiaotong away and just let her lean on his shoulder.
Finally, when they were about to leave because Fu Xiaotong couldn't hold on anymore, Fu Xiaotong suddenly pointed at Yi Pin and said coldly, "If I and Yi Pin fall into the water at the same time, who will you save first?"
Shen Yu glanced at Yi Pin and said helplessly, "Stop making trouble. Let's go back quickly!"
"Tell me or I won't go back!" Fu Xiaotong usually looked gentle and virtuous, but unexpectedly she was so wild when drunk.
Sure enough, love is like a cup of wine. Whoever drinks it will get drunk.
"Yi Pin can swim!" Shen Yu said with a smile. He looked back at Yi Pin and shrugged helplessly, smiling.
Hearing this, Yi Pin felt extremely irritated. He curled up the corners of his mouth, but there was a hint of helplessness and bitterness in his smile.
He sniffed, put his hands in his pockets, and silently turned around and left.
Shen Yu frowned. This kid couldn't be so fragile, could he? The implication was that he would save Fu Xiaotong first because Yi Pin could swim. If Yi Pin couldn't swim, he would be the first choice!
Shen Yu was just about to go out and catch up with Yi Pin when he was grabbed by Fu Xiaotong at his feet.
"Gu Yang, come and help!" Shen Yu frowned and could only watch Yi Pin's back disappear in the distance.
"Deal with your own love affairs by yourself!" Gu Yang shrugged and left with a smile, leaving only a cool back and a gesture.
