Chapter 23

Su Yunxiu would never have thought that she would bump into the person she had tried so hard to hide from so coincidentally.

Yu Wenci ordered some dishes. To her surprise, four out of the five dishes in his selection were her favorites. Su Yunxiu didn’t think too much about it and just thought that it was a coincidence.

“Anything else to add?” He asked Su Yunxiu.

Yu Zitong thought that he was asking her, so she excitedly reached for the menu, but he grabbed the menu tightly. As she looked at Yu Wenci in confusion, she asked him with her gaze why he didn’t let go.

“I didn’t ask you.”

With just these simple words, Yu Zitong knew who he was asking.

Was she imagining things?

Why did she feel that her brother’s gaze on her was especially cold?

Su Yunxiu belatedly said, “No need, that’s enough.”

She could not eat much. Five dishes were enough for the three of them. Any more would be wasted.

The food was served very quickly, and everything was normal during the meal. Yu Wenci would throw out some topics to avoid the awkward atmosphere.

Su Yunxiu’s initial hesitation and embarrassment became relaxed. However, she never dreamed that she would meet Xu Mu and Song Yun here.

After separating, she tried hard to forget him and thought she had finally returned to normal life, but he appeared again.

When they were eating, the location they chose was not hidden. As soon as Xu Mu and Song Yun entered, they could see the three people by the window. Although there was a green platform blocking them, they could still see her if they looked carefully.

“Xiuxiu? You’re here too?” Xu Mu abandoned Song Yun and quickly walked up to her. “Do you like the flowers I gave you these few days?”

Su Yunxiu was speechless

Two days ago, she threw his gifts into the trash can. Later on, she didn’t even accept them. As for whether the flowers were thrown into the trash can or had other uses, it all depended on the delivery man’s mood.

Song Yun, who was following behind him, gritted her teeth. She did not expect Xu Mu to still want to give her flowers after breaking up.

“If you like them, I’ll continue to send it to you until you calm down and come back to me.”

No matter how many times Su Yunxiu said it, he still felt that Su Yunxiu was just throwing a tantrum and would return to his side after her anger subsided.

The scumbag’s idea was already deeply rooted, so Su Yunxiu was not prepared to waste her breath emphasizing her stance.

“You really want me to calm down?” Su Yunxiu gradually smiled, just like before.

Seeing this, Yu Wenci, who was sitting opposite her, secretly clenched his chopsticks. The smile on his lips faded a little, and he stared at her deeply.

At this moment, he was a little flustered. He was afraid that the girl would return to Xu Mu’s side after starting over.

After Yu Zitong figured out their relationship, she felt inexplicably nervous. There was a small person shouting in her heart, “Please don’t!”

Su Yunxiu’s words gave everyone present different thoughts.

Xu Mu thought that his chance had come. He looked happy. “Yes, I really want you to come back.”

Su Yunxiu sneered in her heart. That man’s appearance was too hypocritical. When did he become so worthless?

“If you want me to calm down, then disappear from my sight. As for those flowers of yours, I’ll leave them to someone else.”

Back to him?

Continue watching his hypocritical performance?

Dream on!

Xu Mu’s face turned pale. He was embarrassed.

When did the young lady become so eloquent?

This did not match his impression of her being obedient.

“Brother Xu Mu, you said you’d have dinner with me tonight. I’m starving. Let’s go up quickly.”

“Okay.” He agreed on purpose to see how she would react.

However, Su Yunxiu had already lowered her eyelids and didn’t even want to raise her head.

The feeling of losing control enveloped his entire body again. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

He was a proud person. When they used to quarrel, Su Yunxiu would always give in. Therefore, he was a little angry, after being rebuked by her. He felt that she did not know how to appreciate favors. He had already humbled himself so much, but she still did not give in.

Song Yun held Xu Mu’s hand and left in front of them arrogantly like a peacock.

“Brother Xu Mu, why don’t you send a message to Xiuxiu after we’re done eating? Girls are all like this. They’ll be fine once they’re done being angry.”

Xu Mu: “No need. When she regrets it, let’s see how long she can last this time. By then, I won’t forgive her so easily.”

Song Yun smiled and pretended to be innocent. “By the way, who was that man sitting opposite Xiu Xiao just now? Is he her new boyfriend? When you were talking just now, that man’s eyes were always on her.”

She deliberately provoked him, but she didn’t say anything wrong.

Xu Mu secretly clenched his fists because he had also noticed what Song Yun had said.

“I didn’t expect Xiuxiu to fall in love with someone else so quickly. To think that you’re still thinking about her,” Song Yun complained.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Xiu Xiao isn’t that kind of person.”

“Brother Xu Mu, are you lying to yourself? Su Yunxiu didn’t look sad at all just now. Also, don’t forget what Auntie said.”

Xu Mu’s expression became uglier and uglier.

Song Yun stopped and changed the topic. “The food here is pretty good. I booked a table here. Brother Xu Mu, what do you want to eat?”

She had booked a spot where they could see the scene downstairs through half of the glass.

Song Yun couldn’t wait to let Xu Mu see it so that he could see Su Yunxiu’s true colors.

Xu Mu also noticed it. From the corner of his eye, he saw her downstairs eating with a stranger.

The man used the chopsticks to pick up some food for her, and Su Yunxiu did not refuse. It was unknown what the other party said, but a smile appeared on the girl’s face. The atmosphere seemed to be very good.

Xu Mu snorted and looked at the man’s clothes. It was a simple black shirt and white pants. It was impossible to tell what brand it was. He probably bought it casually. Su Yunxiu would regret it sooner or later if he got together with such a gigolo.

Yu Wenci didn’t know that he had been called a gigolo. He only knew that he was in a good mood because Su Yunxiu had rejected Xu Mu just now.

After the meal, Su Yunxiu took out her phone to settle the bill, but Yu Wenci paid first, making her feel a little embarrassed.

“I’ll pay my half.”

“It’s fine.”

“That won’t do. It’s better to pay my share.” The young lady had a determined expression. She couldn’t take advantage of others for anything. Moreover, this meal wasn’t cheap.

Yu Wenci sighed softly, feeling a little helpless. He lowered his head and looked at her up close. “Then you can invite me back next time?”

She couldn’t even speak properly. “Alright!”

She took a step back and looked away unnaturally.

The two of them didn’t seem to have much interaction in their lives. Because of Yu Wenci’s words, they had a chance to meet again.

After she agreed, the man’s smile gradually lengthened. He was in a good mood. “I’m looking forward to seeing you next time.”

Su Yunxiu was stunned.

Couldn’t he talk properly?

Didn’t he know how bewitching his smile could be?
