After the fake young master left home, he discovered that it wasn't raining at all outside.

Today is Friday, so students should have been in school. However, the school still attaches great importance to this school-level basketball finals and gave the students a day off to watch the game together.

So after the match, Zhu Yan planned to return to his apartment.

"Ding—" Just as Zhu Yan got up from the sofa, her cell phone rang.

It was Bai Zheng who called.

"Ayan, have you finished watching the match?" Bai Zheng asked with a smile in her voice, which was as soft as water.

"It's over." Zhu Yan said on the phone as he walked. Zhu Weizheng opened the door for Zhu Yan. As soon as he stepped out, he was met by a group of people.

Not only did Zhu Jingfeng and the others not leave, but Xu Zhiyuan and the others also stood at the door, watching Zhu Yan expectantly.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Yan asked Bai Zheng on the phone while glancing at the group of people in front of him.

"Um..." Bai Zheng seemed a little embarrassed to speak, and hesitated for a moment, "It's just that, Ayan, are you busy this weekend? Can you go back to the manor?"

Despite her obvious anticipation, Bai Zheng still asked cautiously.

Go back to the manor...?

I'll head back now since I've already dealt with Xie Shengan's matter.

"Okay, I'll be back in a bit," Zhu Yan replied softly.

"Really?" Bai Zheng was clearly excited, her tone becoming enthusiastic. "Great, that's wonderful! Mom has prepared a meal and is waiting for you to come back."

"No need, let the kitchen prepare it. You don't need to cook yourself." Zhu Yan stopped Bai Zheng from cooking.

"yes......"

"It's not that I'm looking down on you." Zhu Yan had anticipated Bai Zheng's words and interrupted her directly.

It's heartbreaking.

But the words of celebration were not spoken aloud.

"Okay, anything you like to eat is fine."

Bai Zheng and Zhu Yan chatted for a few more minutes before Bai Zheng laughed and hung up the phone.

As soon as Bai Zheng hung up the phone, Zhu Mo went up to her and asked about the result, "How did it go? Did Ayan agree to come back?"

Bai Zheng was a little sullen, turning her body away, not wanting to talk to him. "You wouldn't hit yourself just now, now you're in a hurry, aren't you? Serves you right!"

Bai Zheng simply wouldn't tell Zhu Mo.

"Oh dear, I was just too scared. Everyone says that sons are closer to their mothers, that's why I asked you to ask. Don't be angry," Zhu Mo gently coaxed Bai Zheng.

Bai Zheng snorted coldly, but she wasn't really angry. "Just relax and prepare. Ayan has agreed to come back."

"That's great." Zhu Mo's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

If Zhu Yan doesn't come back this weekend, Zhu Mo really doesn't know what to do with all the things he's been preparing for so long.

"If you don't dare call Ayan, you can at least call the boss and the others. Make sure they come back this weekend. I'm going to the kitchen to keep an eye on things and tell them to prepare properly." Bai Zheng ignored Zhu Mo and walked towards the kitchen alone.

Something big is bound to happen this weekend.

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Yan focused his attention on the group of people in front of him.

"What are you trying to do? You're done and instead of going home, you're here playing the doorman for me?"

He could understand why Zhu Jingfeng and the others were waiting for him, but he didn't understand why Xu Zhiyuan and the others were making such a fuss.

"It's the weekend tomorrow, let's go to your house!"

Lu Ze's eyes lit up, looking very expectant.

"I didn't go back to the apartment, I went to the manor." Zhu Yan thought Lu Ze was going to visit him at the apartment next to his school.

"What's so fun about an apartment? Of course, we'll go to your manor." Although that apartment is already top-of-the-line, it can't compare to the comfort of a large and luxurious manor.

Zhu Yan then turned his attention to Shen Yan, Qin Ci, and Song Qian.

"You too?"

"Yes, is there not enough room...?"

Song Zhen met Zhu Yan's gaze and asked weakly.

Banquet:......

That goes without saying.

Go if you want, it'll be more lively with more people.

Seeing that their plan had succeeded, Lu Ze and his companions exchanged glances and secretly smiled.

In fact, Zhu Mo had already invited them to the manor a few days earlier. They had secretly planned something big, keeping it from Zhu Yan, and were preparing to give him a surprise.

This time, Zhu Mo used the word "please" instead of "order".

So this time, they went as friends to celebrate.

"Young Master, are you going back to the manor? I'll have Lin Shen come pick you up." Zhu Jingfeng said, preparing to make a phone call.

"What? Your car is more expensive, so I can't ride in it?" Zhu Yan came in Shen Yan's car without inviting Lin Shen, so he planned to go back to the manor with these four people.

"No, young master, our car wasn't registered in advance, so it can't enter the main building," Zhu Jingfeng quickly explained when he saw that Zhu Yan had misunderstood.

"Do I really have to swipe a card? Can't I just use facial recognition?" Zhu Yan found these people somewhat ridiculous.

He was sitting in the car. What, you still dare not let him in?

Zhu Jingfeng fell silent.

That makes a lot of sense.

He was foolish.

"Young Master, this way please." Zhu Jingfeng and Zhu Weizheng extended their hands to lead the way for Zhu Yan.

Zhu Yan noticed Xu Zhiyuan's unusual behavior when they were at the entrance of the lounge.

He's usually such a talkative person, but he didn't say a single word just now.

This is very abnormal.

Moreover, on the way out of the stadium, Xu Zhiyuan subtly distanced himself from the banquet.

So when it came time to get in the car, Xu Zhiyuan was assigned to ride in Zhu Jingfeng's car with Zhu Yan. Just as he was about to get in, he looked up and met Zhu Yan's gaze. He immediately looked away and avoided Zhu Yan's eyes.

"I...I suddenly need to use the restroom, you guys go ahead." With that, he turned to leave.

"Xu Zhiyuan," Zhu Yan called out to him in a calm tone, "Are you avoiding me?"

"No, how...how could that be?" Xu Zhiyuan stubbornly denied it.

"If you don't have one, then sit down properly." Zhu Yan withdrew her gaze from him and looked down to continue playing on her phone.

Xu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, but still reluctantly sat down next to Zhu Yan.

"Drive," Zhu Yan instructed the driver.

The car started smoothly and drove onto the main road.

In the car, Zhu Yan lay back in the soft seat, doing whatever made her comfortable.

In contrast, Xu Zhiyuan sat stiffly, not daring to move an inch.

"Xu Zhiyuan." Zhu Yan suddenly called his name, put away her phone, and looked at him. "What, you're not planning to continue being friends with me anymore?"

"No!" Xu Zhiyuan immediately became anxious.

"Then what do you want? Do you think I'm some kind of plague? You run away when you see me."

"I'm afraid you'll look down on me..." Xu Zhiyuan didn't dare look at Zhu Yan, and just spoke to himself with his head down, his tone full of grievance.

"What do I find fault with you about?" Xu Zhiyuan's words made Zhu Yan laugh in exasperation.

I wonder what Xu Zhiyuan is thinking about.

"Because I like boys." Xu Zhiyuan's tone weakened even more. "You must think I'm disgusting."

You already disliked me, will this make you dislike me even more...?
