Chapter 271
Chapter 271
The rain kept falling, and the sky gradually darkened.
Ye Xuan had no desire to pick up his chopsticks in front of a table of delicious food.
He tilted his head and looked out the window. It seemed that there was an extremely wide pearl curtain hanging between the sky and the earth, and it was hazy.
The weather at this moment was like his mood, gray and sad.
Ye Xuan couldn't help but start to wonder what kind of man he, a high-quality young man, lost to.
In addition to being as handsome as Li Shuo, what kind of personality would the other party have?
A man who can make a girl like Bai Qinning who has symptoms of male aversion fall in love must be a superb flirting master, right?
His thoughts wandered.
Indistinctly, two blurred figures entered his sight.
In the hazy rain curtain, he saw a tall man holding a black umbrella.
Next to him was a girl with a charming temperament and a graceful figure.
Even though they were wearing black masks in the rain, Ye Xuan could tell at a glance that they were a perfect match of handsome men and beautiful women, and it was impossible to look away.
Ye Xuan supported his chin with one hand, and couldn't help thinking.
Li Shuo said that Bai Qinning usually sticks to her boyfriend.
Then when Bai Qinning is dating her boyfriend, will she be as clingy as this girl?
In his mind, Bai Qinning's cold and beautiful face and her temperament of keeping others away emerged, and he immediately rejected this idea.
Bai Qinning looked like a girl who wouldn't even hold her boyfriend's arm.
He couldn't imagine Bai Qinning's state when she was in love.
Ye Xuan followed them all the way, watching the sweet couple put down their umbrellas at the door and walk into the store together.
He was quite a distance away from the door of the store, and the clerk came up to greet them enthusiastically as soon as they entered the store.
When the clerk approached, Bai Qinning subconsciously avoided the other's sight. Even if she only showed a pair of eyes and changed her dressing style, she was still very recognizable and needed to prevent being recognized.
His wife was so famous that Li Shuo, who was not used to being the one who led the dinner, stretched out his hand to protect Bai Qinning, and actively communicated with the waiter with his neck stiff.
"Hello, please arrange a quiet box for us."
With the mask covering him, he looked quite natural when communicating.
The waiter did not notice anything unusual, and responded enthusiastically immediately, leading the two to the second floor.
Ye Xuan had been following the two people since they entered the door, and his thoughts were also wandering.
Out of the rain, his vision became much clearer. When he stared at the two people walking through the restaurant, he felt more and more familiar, and then he became serious.
How come this couple looks so similar...
This outrageous idea came up in his mind, and Ye Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he stood up from his seat, his eyes widened, trying to take another look to confirm the impossible idea in his mind!
However, just as he stood up, the couple had already gone up to the second floor and followed the waiter away.
After the two of them left his sight, Ye Xuan gradually came back to his senses, and instantly felt that his previous thoughts were too outrageous.
He actually thought that this couple was Li Shuo and Bai Qinning.
Is this possible?
It's impossible!
Let alone other things, when he met Li Shuo, Li Shuo was already married.
And he also became his emotional mentor and helped to pursue Bai Qinning.
Just based on this point, Li Shuo couldn't be Bai Qinning's boyfriend!
How could there be a man in this world who helped others to pursue his wife?
And according to Li Shuo, he was dragged to the Civil Affairs Bureau by his wife to get a marriage certificate.
Bai Qinning's misogyny is so serious, how could she drag a man to the Civil Affairs Bureau and be so anxious to take this man down.
The more Ye Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that his previous thoughts were outrageous.
That couple could never be Bai Qinning and Li Shuo.
But Li Shuo and Bai Qinning had already come to the second-floor box, and in order to block the clerk's sight, they sat side by side.
At the recommendation of the waiter, Li Shuo ordered some of the signature dishes here.
This restaurant is very efficient.
It didn't take long for the dishes to be served one by one.
These dishes not only look good, but also taste good.
Even Bai Qinning, who has always been picky about food, ate a few more bites of each dish, and Li Shuo was responsible for cleaning up the mess. The two of them had a good time today.
The dinner was coming to an end.
Li Shuo poured a glass of juice into Bai Qinning's cup and suddenly called her name.
"Qinning."
"Hmm?" Bai Qinning reached out to take the juice, raised her eyes to the man next to her, and waited for him to speak.
Li Shuo was silent, looked at her, and finally asked the question he had been holding in his heart for a day: "How did you meet Ye Xuan?"
Bai Qinning just brought the juice to her lips, and Li Shuo's question suddenly hit her, making her stunned for a moment, and the feeling of uneasiness that had been lingering in her heart today became stronger.She took a sip of juice, looked at the man beside her inquiringly, and asked, "Why are you suddenly curious about this?"
Did Ye Xuan say something to Li Shuo today?
Bai Qinning began to get nervous, and her palms were sweating.
If her identity was exposed, would Li Shuo take the initiative to leave because of the huge difference in their backgrounds?
"It was after I met Ye Xuan today that I remembered that he said that you two were childhood sweethearts, so I was curious about how you two knew each other, and asked you." Li Shuo looked back at the girl beside him, but Bai Qinning quickly avoided his sight when their eyes met.
"It's been too long, how can I remember how I met him, and we didn't have childhood sweethearts, we are not familiar with each other." She said evasively.
Bai Qinning obviously didn't want to answer this question, and Li Shuo stopped in time: "Okay, forget it, I just asked casually."
Bai Qinning didn't want to say it, he could go to Ye Xuan to ask.
Li Shuo thought so, reached out to take the juice cup, but the person next to him suddenly grabbed his wrist.
Li Shuo was startled by the cool and delicate touch and turned to look at her.
Bai Qinning was nervous, staring at him with her beautiful eyes and asked, "Did Ye Xuan tell you anything today?"
Ever since Ye Xuan left, Bai Qinning noticed that Li Shuo looked at her differently.
Now he suddenly asked her like this.
It made her very uneasy.
Li Shuo had confirmed that Bai Qinning was hiding something from her, but he couldn't guess what it was, so he smiled and asked, "What do you think he would tell me?"
Li Shuo smiled, and Bai Qinning's heartstrings were loosened. He could still smile, which proved that he didn't know her identity yet.
But Li Shuo had already become curious, and it might not be long before he found out her identity.
A strong sense of crisis surged in her heart. She didn't want to continue this topic, so she took the initiative to move closer to Li Shuo and said, "Let's not talk about others."
She looked up at him, and met his eyebrows and eyes that were so clear that she could count the number of eyelashes. She moved closer to him, so close that she could clearly feel his breath...
"We haven't been together for a long time since we came back to the island..."
Bai Qinning was surrounded by a strong sense of crisis throughout the day.
The question raised by Li Shuo just now disrupted her position again. Now she just wanted to get closer to Li Shuo to prove that Li Shuo would not leave her.
