When their lovely childhood friend returned, they were all in a panic!

Seeing Mu Anqi's reaction, Luo Qingyan was completely dumbfounded.

Not to mention Luo Qingyan, even Bai Yu was stunned.

What is Mu Anqi up to now?

What exactly are they up to...?

Never mind, I'll just grill my own meat.

After thinking it over, Bai Yu silently played the role of a tool.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mu Anqi."

Luo Qingyan shook Mu Anqi's hand and smiled politely.

"Then we're friends."

Mu Anqi's smile was very sweet, which gave Luo Qingyan an inexplicable sense of goodwill.

But when I think about that day when I passed by Bai Yu's classroom and saw her hugging Bai Yu's arm.

Luo Qingyan felt quite uncomfortable.

Childhood sweethearts.

It's hard to say how much weight those four words carry in Bai Yu's heart.

"Sigh, I originally wanted to eat at this barbecue restaurant, but I was a little slow getting a taxi, and there were no seats left when I arrived."

Mu Anqi sighed and rubbed her baby face.

"However, I just happened to see Bai Yu here. Would you like to eat together? I can pay for it."

After speaking, Mu Anqi blinked and looked at Luo Qingyan.

Luo Qingyan didn't know what to say, since Mu Anqi hadn't shown any malice.

To be honest, there were some discomforts.

Today was supposed to be a date with Bai Yu alone, but then a childhood friend suddenly showed up, which really spoiled the mood.

"I have no objection, but I'll cover the expenses. Bai Yu's friends are my friends."

Luo Qingyan chuckled, emphasizing the word "friend" in the last sentence.

She hoped that Mu Anqi and Bai Yu were just ordinary friends.

"How can that be? I'm a member at this store, and I get a discount when I pay."

Mu Anqi refused to back down and beckoned the waiter over.

After taking the tablet to order food and adding a few dishes, I returned it to the waiter.

When Luo Qingyan returned the order tablet to the waiter, she noticed Mu Anqi's logged-in account.

Next to the name Mu Anqi is the Black Gold Membership.

As a Black Gold member of this store, do you really not know that reservations are possible?

Luo Qingyan had a slight suspicion, but didn't think too much about it.

"Bai Yu, why aren't you saying anything?"

Mu Anqi frowned and naturally sat down next to Bai Yu.

Moreover, they had no sense of propriety; there wasn't even a small space between them when they sat.

This made Luo Qingyan's teeth itch with envy.

Luo Qingyan couldn't be sure whether Mu Anqi was naturally carefree or whether she was intentionally getting close to Bai Yu.

Anyway, Luo Qingyan was extremely anxious, and that sense of crisis was growing stronger.

Bai Yu, who was working as a barbecue helper, was suddenly called out and looked up with a miserable expression.

"I'm grilling meat, you guys chat."

"Oh dear, I've been so thirsty on the way here."

Mu Anqi pouted and picked up Bai Yu's cup, pretending not to care.

"Gurgle~"

After taking a sip, Mu Anqi slowly placed the cup back next to Bai Yu.

There was still a tiny bit of lipstick mark left by Mu Anqi on the rim of the cup.

"That's the cup I drank from."

Bai Yu's face darkened; he hadn't been watching closely enough and had lost the cup.

"So what if it's yours? It's not like we haven't drunk it before."

Mu Anqi acted as if she didn't care, crossed her arms, and gave a soft hum.

Because of her naturally baby-faced appearance, everything she does looks like she's being coquettish.

"I......"

Bai Yu was speechless and decided to just be his tool.

Suddenly, Bai Yu smelled a sour smell.

I just don't know where it came from.

Which table of guests put the vinegar into the pot?

Luo Qingyan, who was sitting opposite Bai Yu, was furious.

Even if it's just a childhood friendship, that won't do!

This is way too intimate! What does "So what if it's yours? It's not like we haven't drunk from it before" even mean?

Just thinking about Luo Qingyan makes me so angry I could explode.

She couldn't say anything, since she wasn't exactly his girlfriend.

Bai Yu only saw herself as a one-day girlfriend to give her a taste of romance.

It seems I need to obtain official status as soon as possible.

Luo Qingyan thought to herself that she no longer intended to treat confessing her feelings as a reward.

When the odds of winning reach 90%, you have to take a gamble.

Otherwise, you might find that the prize ticket has expired before you even claim it.

Luo Qingyan called over the waiter and asked him to bring her a new cup.

She then poured some water herself and placed it in front of Bai Yu.

You want to have a drink with Bai Yu? I haven't even had a chance yet and you're already thinking about it?

"You two seem to have a good relationship~"

Luo Qingyan deliberately spoke in a sarcastic tone, trying to wake Bai Yu up.

Hey! Wake up!

You're the boyfriend I paid to hire today! Don't you know how to protect your boss when he's unhappy?

After saying that, she stared intently at Bai Yu with her peach blossom eyes.

Bai Yu, head down, grilling meat:

There's always a sense of foreboding, a feeling that I'm being watched by countless eyes.

Looking up, I saw Luo Qingyan's beautiful peach blossom eyes.

Her eyes still held a hint of grievance and resentment.

"That's because we've been friends since we were little, we practically grew up wearing the same pair of underwear!"

Mu Anqi's carefree laughter could be heard nearby.

Bai Yu seemed to understand what Luo Qingyan meant.

But Bai Yu always wanted to avoid this chaotic situation.

But constantly running away is not a quality a person should have.

"Don't listen to her bragging, I only knew her when I was a child."

Bai Yu said calmly, flipping the grilled meat over.

"Oh, I see."

Luo Qingyan smiled, a hint of relief in her expression.

Mu Anqi, who was standing next to her, was unhappy about it.

"You stinky Bai Yu! Tell me what you mean by 'just acquaintances'? Have we been friends for all these years just been wasting our time feeding dogs?"

Mu Anqi was so angry that she gritted her teeth and grabbed Bai Yu's ear with one hand.

She really used force, and Bai Yuzhi winced in pain.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"That's not a good idea, Angie."

Luo Qingyan frowned, her voice very soft.

"Bai Yu prefers to be treated gently, and you can see he's not comfortable with it."

These words immediately reignited Mu Anqi's anger.

Why does it sound so manipulative?

Mu Anqi gave a soft snort, released Bai Yu's ear, crossed her arms, and pouted.

They act like they're the victims.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I thought we were friends, but it turns out we're just acquaintances?"

After saying that, Mu Anqi lowered her head and pouted, looking like she was about to cry.

This left Bai Yu completely dumbfounded.

Dude, are you an Oscar-winning actress?

Bai Yu knew what kind of person Mu Anqi was, so she naturally knew that Mu Anqi wasn't really crying.

But Luo Qingyan didn't know that.

She sat opposite Mu Anqi, who was on the verge of tears, completely bewildered and at a loss for what to do.

Am I a bad guy?

After all, he was Bai Yu's childhood friend, which was an obstacle that was hard to overcome.

As for whether their relationship went beyond friendship, Luo Qingyan couldn't guarantee it.

Anyway, she felt a sense of crisis.

But it wouldn't do for her to cry here!

After thinking it over, Luo Qingyan glanced at Bai Yu, then at Mu Anqi.

Why don't you go and comfort her?

Bai Yu naturally received Luo Qingyan's signal.

He sighed softly.

"It's not that serious. I'm just saying we didn't grow up wearing the same pair of underwear."
