Chapter 356

They were warriors who, even knowing they might be facing a violent storm, still looked this way with a glimmer of hope.

Just for the sake of a lasting impression, they willingly endured the wrath of their girlfriends.

However, after watching it, most passersby often feel unbalanced, confused, or even angry.

Why? Why is there such a huge difference between people?

Why is there a pretty boy next to this group of perfect, sophisticated girls? This pretty boy completely ruined their good mood for the day!

Damn it! If only they were all pretty girls!! Why is there a man among all these pretty girls?!

.

"We'll be able to enter in twenty minutes. Where did that Rat guy go?"

Nan Zhu stared at the time displayed on her phone screen with a worried expression.

What on earth is that Rat doing? He's not answering the phone or replying to messages.

We agreed to meet here half an hour early, but everyone else is here while that kid has disappeared.

This put him in an awkward position. After all, the Rat was the main character today, and if the other party didn't come, his plan would be useless.

"I called him but he didn't respond."

Miao Lian smiled helplessly, resting her chin on her hand and playing with her phone with a forlorn expression.

Why hasn't Rat arrived yet? She sent him a message last night specifically reminding him not to be late, but he completely ignored her words.

Or did something happen to him on his way here? Rat isn't the kind of man who would easily stand someone up.

"Miao Lian, don't worry. Rat might just have a dead phone battery or something else."

"Or it might be because of traffic. Look how many people are in the commercial city today, it's normal for the roads to be crowded."

He Xue noticed the disappointment in Miao Lian's eyes and quickly took her hand to comfort her.

She hadn't believed Miao Lian had developed those feelings for Rat before, but judging from the current situation, Nan Zhu was right; perhaps Miao Lian just hadn't realized it herself.

If Miao Lian only had friendly feelings for the Rat, she would never have shown such disappointment.

"Well... we still have some time... we can wait a little longer..."

Ning Shuang glanced at the forlorn expression on Miao Lian's face and scratched her head awkwardly.

Goodness, Miao Lian really has her eye on Rat... Looks like she misunderstood the Nan Zhu before...

"That guy may be a sleazy person, but he's not the kind of person who would easily break his word."

Han Yu, who hadn't spoken until now, snorted coldly, turned her head to the other side, and continued talking to herself.

If Xiaoxue hadn't been begging her to come out yesterday, she wouldn't have wasted her precious rest time hanging out with this group of people.

Tsk, I thought Wu Liang would participate too, but it turns out he had something to do and wasn't there.

Damn it, I wonder what that clueless maid and that crazy red-haired woman will do on weekends.

Since Wu Liang didn't come here, he must be staying with those two maids.

"Tsk... I really shouldn't have come out in the first place..."

Thinking of this, Han Yu frowned slightly, biting her fingertips and muttering to herself in annoyance.

The two maids who lived with Wu Liang definitely didn't have any good intentions.

However, the maid with no connections was alright. Although she stubbornly insisted on competing with him for Wu Liang's ownership, she was clearly much more conservative when it came to love.

The person I need to be careful of right now is that foreign woman, Milutin. If she loses her temper one day, she might even do something like drugging and seducing me.

Damn it, what if that woman gets pregnant and it becomes a done deal?

The current situation is clearly unfavorable to her, so it seems she needs to speed up her offensive against Wu Liang.

"Let's wait a little longer."

Sitting next to Nan Zhu, Nan Qingshui looked at Han Yu, whose face was cold, with surprise.

I always felt that Han Yu wasn't as gloomy as before after the Ferris wheel incident; she had more or less integrated into everyone's lives.

Isn't this better? Senior Han Yu looks more approachable this way.

"Hey! Miao Lian!! Nan Zhu!!!"

A slightly staggering figure came running from a distance, waving and shouting breathlessly.

However, his neat short hair made this slightly immature-looking boy look much more sunny, and even though he was covered in sweat, he didn't look so disheveled.

Upon seeing Nan Zhu and the others waiting in front of the milk tea shop, the boy's youthful and handsome face immediately flushed red.

Oh no... he's late... he's definitely going to get yelled at by Miao Lian now...

Chapter 85: Little friend, who are you?

"Only five minutes left."

Nan Zhu covered his forehead and sighed heavily. Could it be that Rat had really stood them up?

But why? Didn't the Rat really want to go to the comic convention with Miao Lian?

They were so excited when they talked about this before, how come they suddenly became so deflated now?

Could it be that you're too shy to face Miao Lian? If that's the case, you should at least come over and explain.

Not answering calls or replying to messages, that's just not how you behave. It will only lower Miao Lian's opinion of you.

"Everyone, why don't you go in first? I'll just wait here."

Nan Zhu scratched his head in annoyance. Well, the Rat had just completely destroyed his goodwill towards Miao Lian.

If he were to start from scratch to get close to Miao Lian again, the difficulty would be extraordinary.

After all, you've already disappointed people once, so getting them to believe you again won't be as easy as it was in the beginning.

"No need, Nan Zhu, you guys go in quickly, I'll wait for him here."

"This event was originally prepared for everyone, how could we let you wait here?"

Miao Lian shook her head, interrupting Nan Zhu's words.

His gaze fell on the sidewalk in the distance, and a hint of helplessness flashed in the depths of his clear, watery eyes.

But Miao Lian quickly dismissed those negative thoughts; it was impossible for the other party to stand her up.

Since they had already made plans to go to the international comic convention together today, there was no way that Rat would sneak away without saying goodbye.

"Miao Lian and Rat, you are the ones who invited this event. If neither of you is here, what's the point of this event?"

"Anyway, we don't lack time, so let's all wait here for Classmate Laoshu."

He Xue reached out and placed her hand on Miao Lian's slightly cold little hand, smiling gently.

Today's main characters are Miao Lian and Classmate Laoshu. If even the male and female leads aren't here, then these supporting characters have no reason to exist.

"Senior He Xue is as gentle as ever."

Nan Qingshui smiled brightly and chuckled. There are probably very few people who don't like a perfect woman like Senior He Xue.

She is beautiful and gentle, and her meticulous care for others makes her seem like an angel descended to earth.

Phew... so in a way... she should thank Wu Liang for winning over Senior He Xue's heart...

If it weren't for the relationship between Wu Liang and He Xue, her older brother might have also fallen for He Xue, who knows?

"Cut..."

Han Yu clicked her tongue in slight dissatisfaction upon seeing He Xue's actions.

He Xue is always so gentle to everyone, which makes her a little jealous.

The other person's gentleness was clearly meant to be enjoyed only by her... oh well... as long He Xue is happy...

"Um! I'm so sorry, I'm late!"

The sudden sound drew everyone's attention.

A simple white T-shirt, light blue casual jeans, and a neat and tidy hairstyle made this young man look very energetic, although his face looked a little immature, like a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy.

The other person was bowing their head, their cheeks flushed, and hurriedly apologizing, which actually made them look rather cute.

"?"

Nan Zhu was stunned for a moment when she saw this handsome young man.

Then he tilted his head, looking at the other person with a puzzled expression, before finally turning to look at the group of women in front of him.

"Your friends?"

Nan Zhu pointed to the boy with a cute, boyish face standing next to him.

Is He Xue and the others? He didn't know that he had once invited this young man.

However, to be fair, this young man is really good-looking, and with his shy and apologetic demeanor, isn't he the quintessential cute boy?

"How could we possibly invite anyone else?"

Ning Shuang rolled her eyes at Nan Zhu, but then turned to look at the young man in front of her.

Oh my, he's not bad looking at all, and he even has a baby face. I bet he's very popular with girls who like cute boys.

"She was born to wear women's clothing..."

Nan Qingshui stared excitedly at the stranger who had suddenly appeared.

Look at her fair and delicate face, and those bright and captivating phoenix eyes.

If this young boy dressed up properly and even wore women's clothing, he would definitely be a beautiful woman.

Damn it, it's a pity she didn't bring her cosmetics with her, otherwise she really wanted to do her makeup and grooming right there and then.

As a beauty blogger, these young, inexperienced boys are the perfect guinea pigs for her experiments.

"Little friend, you may have mistaken me for someone else."

Seeing that Ning Shuang and the others had all rejected the boy in front of them, Nan Zhu turned around and patted the other person's shoulder.

But thinking about it, it's obvious that He Xue and her group wouldn't have brought outsiders; they probably just mistook someone else for them.

"Huh? A little kid?"

The young man's eyes twitched after hearing Nan Zhu's speech.

Especially after seeing Nan Zhu adopt the posture of an older brother, the young man's forehead veins bulged.

"Little friend, the older brothers and sisters are waiting for someone, so we won't play with you for now."

Nan Zhu smiled slightly, revealing what he considered to be a very gentle smile, and stood up to pat the boy's head in front of him.

But in his heart, he kept thinking, "Are twelve or thirteen-year-old boys this tall now? It seems that young people's nutrition level is getting better and better."

"Ah... um... Nan Zhu, wait a minute... I think he is..."

Suddenly realizing something, Miao Lian covered her mouth and murmured softly.

No way... it can't be... but the aura emanating from that person does feel very familiar...

"Idiot."

Han Yu looked at Nan Zhu with disgust, how could there be such a stupid guy.

"Let's go, it's time to go to the conference."

Han Yu stood up, grabbed her coat from the back of the chair, and pulled He Xue, who was beside her, out of the room.

She no longer wanted to stay by Nan Zhu's side; she was afraid she would be infected by his stupidity.

"Hey? Han Yu? But Rat hasn't arrived yet?"

When Nan Zhu saw that Han Yu was about to leave, she quickly turned around and called out to him.

How can we just leave like that? The Rat hasn't arrived yet. We should at least wait for the male lead to come.
