Seeing the distressed look on Xie Xiao's face, Shen You's mood immediately livened up.
"Can I make a new flavor cupcake for you to try?" Shen You waved the small shovel in front of Xie Xiao.
Xie Xiao nodded subconsciously. "Okay."
With a smile on her face, Shen You walked past Xie Xiao.
Xia Xiao finally reacted. "Didn't you mention cupcake just now?"
Shen You turned around and smiled at Xie Xiao. "No matter what it is, whether you asked or you didn't, you said or you didn't, there will be an outcome someday."
Xie Xiao mumbled Shen You's words and couldn't help but mutter, "Why is it so profound?"
Xie Xiao walked to Shen You's side and patted her on the shoulder. "I feel that what you just said was as if not said!"
Shen You kept on smiling. She raised the tray in her hand and said, "Alright! Come and help! I can't carry it on my own!"
"Ah!" Xie Xiao immediately ran over to take over the things from Shen You's hands.
After preparing the small cakes, Shen You walked out of the kitchen.
Huo Xiao did not leave. Instead, he sat in his usual seat and waited.
Shen You walked straight to Huo Xiao and sat down in the seat opposite him.
"Are you waiting for me?" Shen You asked. She already had the answer in her heart.
"Yes! About what I have just told you..." Huo Xiao looked at Shen You with some trepidation.
Shen You was about to say something when suddenly, there was another person beside her.
Wu Qi stood beside Shen You. "Shen You, I have something to talk to you."
Shen You looked at Wu Qi in astonishment. She muttered softly, "Why were there so many people who wanted to talk to me recently?"
Before Shen You could answer, Xie Xiao had already rushed over. "Why are you looking for Shen You? If you have something to say, you can talk to Huo Xiao."
Huo Xiao looked at Xie Xiao helplessly. He was dumbfounded.
Huo Xiao stood up and asked Wu Qi, "What do you want to say? Why don't you say it here?"
Wu Qi's brows were tightly knitted together. Obviously, there were some things that she did not want Huo Xiao to hear.
Shen You naturally saw through Wu Qi's thoughts, but she did not want to talk too much with Wu Qi.
Wu Qi looked at Shen You and only spoke after a long while, "I'm getting engaged to Huo Xiao. The date has already been finalized."
Shen You glanced at Huo Xiao and nodded. "Oh!"
Seeing Shen You not having any reaction, Wu Qi's brows furrowed even more. "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Shen You tilted her head and looked at Wu Qi in confusion. "Is there anything I need to say to you?"
"Don't you care who Huo Xiao is engaged to?" Wu Qi asked again, with her voice getting higher.
Shen You shook her head. "Do I need to care? Even if it's marriage, it's still his freedom, isn't it?"
When Huo Xiao heard this, his brows furrowed tightly. It was obvious that he did not like Shen You's answer.
Shen You stood up and walked out of her seat, facing Wu Qi. "At the moment, Huo Xiao and I are just classmates. In the future, any relationship we develop will be within the scope of the law."
"He has the right to make his own choice. No one can influence his choice," Shen You said as she glanced at Huo Xiao. "Neither you nor I can."
Shen You said to Huo Xiao, "If you want to say something, let's talk about it another day! I'm tired. I'll go back and rest first."
After Shen You said that she left without looking back.
Wu Qi stood where she was and glared at Shen You's departing figure with resentment and anger.
Huo Xiao sighed and walked past Wu Qi, preparing to leave.
Wu Qi looked at Huo Xiao's departing figure and called out, "Huo Xiao!"
Huo Xiao did not look back and left in big strides.
Xie Xiao saw Wu Qi standing at where she was, shrugged, and left as well.
Wu Qi just stood there quietly. After a long time, she walked out of the coffee shop.
Wu Qi walked on the street and looked at the street that she was still unfamiliar with. She suddenly doubted if her move of following Huo Xiao to this city was right or wrong?
Just as she was confused, her phone suddenly rang.
"Who is it?" Wu Qi asked in an unfriendly tone.
"Wu Qi?" The other party's voice sounded soft.
"Yes! Who are you?" Wu Qi asked again.
"Shen Jiao." The soft voice came from the receiver again.
Wu Qi looked at the phone in surprise. "Why are you calling me?"
Laughter came from the receiver. "I want to work with you."
"Work with you?" Wu Qi repeated Shen Jiao's words, feeling strange.
"Yes! It's because we have a common enemy!" Shen Jiao's voice sounded somewhat hateful.
Wu Qi stood where she was and said after a moment, "Okay! Let's meet and talk!"
