Chapter 100: Chapter 100 I Am Clearly Very Beautiful

Lin Yu didn't know what they were talking about, he just felt the lingering awkwardness between him and Liu Ou.

It lasted all the way to the dining place, where both of them stood without moving.

Since the seats were in booths, it was the type where pairs sit facing each other.

Logically, since Xie Xiao and Luo Yanran were a couple, they should sit together, and Lin Yu and Liu Ou should face them.

But at that moment, Lin Yu glanced at Liu Ou and sighed inwardly.

Xie Xiao looked at the two, "Why aren't you sitting?"

"We're waiting for you to choose," Liu Ou replied quite naturally.

Xie Xiao smiled and pulled Luo Yanran to sit down.

Lin Yu let Liu Ou sit inside, and she simply said thanks before going in.

In the past, she never said thanks, which made Lin Yu feel even more down.

During the meal, since Xie Xiao and Liu Ou were there, it wasn't too awkward, but Lin Yu was somewhat distracted.

Liu Ou also glanced at him a few times.

After the meal, since it was still early, Luo Yanran suggested, "Since the temple fair hasn't started yet, why don't we stroll around here?"

The others had no objections.

This was not a very developed city, nor was it a popular tourist destination, so there weren't many people milling around.

But they did bump into some classmates from their school.

After all, everyone was hanging out in the area.

Luo Yanran and Xie Xiao knew quite a few people.

The couple walked hand in hand on the street without any reservations, greeting classmates with smiles, mainly out of curiosity.

Xie Xiao was very outgoing, especially since Luo Yanran didn't mind, they felt no need to hide their relationship.

It just goes to show how small this city really was.

When they reached a specialty snack shop, they saw Zhou Mianmian and Yan Shi with a few others.

Luo Yanran found Zhou Mianmian to be quite an interesting person; just hours ago, she had been blocking Xie Xiao, pitifully slipping him a room card, but now she was intimately held by another boy.

The two were with a group of boys.

Seeing Xie Xiao, Yan Shi didn't react much, his previous grievances with Xie Xiao were only because of Zhou Mianmian.

But now that he was really with her, he felt Zhou Mianmian was just so-so.

However, Xie Xiao was indeed fortunate to be with Luo Yanran.

Zhou Mianmian, however, seemed a bit uncomfortable seeing them.

But of the four, only Luo Yanran gave her an extra glance; the others didn't spare her another look.

Xie Xiao asked Luo Yanran, "What would you like? There are quite a few flavors here."

The specialty was a type of pastry, but they had just finished eating, so they probably couldn't eat much.

Luo Yanran withdrew her gaze and looked at the colorful pastries inside, hesitating, "They all look good—I want to try them all..."

But they couldn't finish them.

Xie Xiao laughed, "Then, let's have a bit of each flavor."

Liu Ou laughed outright, "There we go, we don't need to choose anymore, Xie Xiao has got it."

Lin Yu nodded, "Snacking on someone else's dime."

Xie Xiao was quick to pay, "I was planning to treat you all anyway."

Luo Yanran flashed a smile, enjoying the feeling of being pampered.

Someone nearby sneered, "Yan Shi, you're not up to par, buying only two flavors."

This delicacy was priced by weight and wasn't cheap; Yan Shi had just spent over 70 on two flavors.

Then Xie Xiao flaunted his wealth right in front of them.

He scanned a QR code to pay 513 yuan.

Zhou Mianmian's eyes reddened; Xie Xiao had always spent freely on her just like this.

Compared to him, Yan Shi was nowhere close...

Yan Shi initially didn't care, as he wasn't into those snacks, but seeing Zhou Mianmian's expression made him incredibly annoyed.

He couldn't help but say, "Didn't you just buy some? Aren't we leaving?"

The tone carried a hint of impatience.

Zhou Mianmian, seeing Xie Xiao and the others looking over, felt somewhat embarrassed and tugged at Yan Shi, "Let's go."

Xie Xiao and his group watched as she pulled Yan Shi away.

No one spoke for a moment, and holding the pastries, Xie Xiao said, "Let's go, the temple fair has started."

"I feel like we still need to buy things at the temple fair, did we buy too much?" Luo Yanran suddenly thought of this and couldn't help frowning.

Xie Xiao said carelessly, "If we can't finish it, Lin Yu and I will have it for supper."

Liu Ou also laughed, "Hurry up, I want to try it now—"

Nobody mentioned Zhou Mianmian and her group; it was too disheartening.

Lin Yu was looking at the fabric and some woven goods they bought around, "To bring a gift for the old lady."

"Later at the temple fair, we'll choose even more!" Liu Ou said as he picked up a pastry and brought it to Lin Yu's mouth, "Ah, try this!"

Lin Yu bit into it, then looked at Liu Ou in front of him, who seemed unfazed and continued to pick another flavor.

The awkwardness between them seemed to have diluted a bit.

When they reached the temple fair, they encountered more classmates.

They had already bumped into several groups from their class.

Unable to resist, Lin Yu commented, "Has our school booked this place or what!?"

The others all laughed.

The temple fair wasn't that different from a night market; just with an added theme.

The group had a good time wandering and eating.

Along the way, they also bought many small trinkets.

But this place did have its own unique charm that made it special.

At that moment, the four of them stood at a fork in the road, with food on one side and entertainment on the other.

After all, there were couples among them, and the other two were considerate.

Liu Ou asked, "Which way are you going?"

She glanced at Lin Yu, "We want to check out the food."

Luo Yanran touched her stomach, "I can't eat anymore."

"Then we'll check out the entertainment and also buy some gifts," Xie Xiao said with a smile, "Shall we call later?"

The four of them split up, and Xie Xiao told Lin Yu he would buy a gift for the old lady.

Watching Xie Xiao and his group walk away, Lin Yu sighed, "This way, the old lady will think even more that Xie Xiao is her own."

This made Liu Ou laugh involuntarily, "It's not that exaggerated."

Lin Yu looked at her, then suddenly said softly, "Finally made you laugh."

Meanwhile, Xie Xiao couldn't help but look back.

Luo Yanran asked, "Are you that worried? Hai Ou won't let him be embarrassed all the time."

Xie Xiao averted his gaze, "Did you notice?"

"Hm? Noticed what? Lin Yu likes Hai Ou?" Luo Yanran looked at him, "Anyone with eyes can see that."

Xie Xiao smiled, "Then Liu Ou..." Stay connected with m-v l|e'-NovelFire.net

Before he could finish, Luo Yanran suddenly stopped walking, turned, and stared at him, "Xie Xiao, why do you keep talking about other people?"

She reached out and took Xie Xiao's hand, intertwining their fingers tightly. Behind them was the noisy crowd and the stalls, and she softly said, "Then I might get jealous!"

Her voice was really soft, but Xie Xiao heard it.

Then his heartbeat sped up.

He held Luo Yanran's hand tightly and pulled her two steps in his direction.

Xie Xiao pulled her into his embrace, "Don't be jealous, I won't talk about them anymore."

He looked down and kissed her face and lips, his voice carrying a laugh, "Ms. Luo, you're really adorable."

The girl's face slowly turned red, she looked up at him, and her lips curled into a smile, "You're the adorable one, I am obviously beautiful."

Her tone was proud and playful. Sёarᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
