Steam bubbled and gurgled in the hotpot stove on the table, with the tantalizing aroma wafting out.
A few people were eating hotpot and chatting.
An Xiaoyu asked Yunqing, "When did you arrive at the cast?"
"Just got here today!"
An Xiaoyu smiled and asked, "The role you’re playing... it couldn’t be the legendary second male lead, could it?"
Yunqing raised his eyebrows, "Apart from , where else could the director find such an elegant, handso, and dashing second male lead!"
Right after Yunqing’s words fell, there ca a "snap" from nearby.
At this mont, everyone followed the sound, only to discover—Jin Zelin’s chopsticks had snapped!
Jin Zelin had been enduring it for so long, trying to... endure... endure...
And look what happened—Yunqing’s self-praising words were exactly the sa as An Xiaoyu’s when praising Tong Xi’s other half!
Could he not be shocked?
Unable to hold it in any longer, he exerted a bit more strength in his hand... he was certain it was just a little bit...
And as a result... what could be done when those chopsticks were just too fragile?
An Xiaoyu glanced at Jin Zelin’s face, which was about to distort, and then at the broken chopsticks on his table, her heart trembled a bit.
"Hey, elder junior brother, do you have a vendetta against chopsticks, or do the chopsticks have a vendetta against you?"
Jin Zelin: "I have a vendetta against you!"
An Xiaoyu: "..."
Er, well, looking at elder junior brother’s current state, he’s definitely been seriously provoked by the words "elegant and dashing"!
However, she could also see that from the beginning till now, there has always been a subtle tension between Yunqing and elder junior brother!
Shen Yufeng’s gaze landed on Yunqing and Tong Xi.
Speaking of which, during dinner, he noticed that Tong Xi had been giving Yunqing the cold shoulder all along.
Back when he told his grandparents he had found a woman he liked, Yunqing had the nerve to say, "Bro, as your dearest brother, rest assured your lifelong matters are in my hands. With the guidance of , soone who’s knowledgeable, intelligent, and irresistibly handso—a god-level ladies’ man, there’s no doubt you will conquer all battles..."
In the end, he didn’t use any of his teachings at all. Since he was determined to catch An Xiaoyu, that little bunny to take ho... it hardly took a few months to make it happen!
But this guy Yunqing, well, from the ti he t Tong Xi till now... such a long ti and still hasn’t got her!
Tsk, so god-level ladies’ man ntor!
What a braggart! Boasting about himself so much, but look at these achievents... rely an armchair strategist!
Looking at it now, Tong Xi doesn’t seem to have given him any good looks at all!
Serves him right for hitting a steel plate now!

Finally, the al was over.
When they went out to settle the bill, Shen Yunqing directly pulled out a few hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and handed them over to the proprietress.
"Sister proprietress, we’re checking out! Had a great ti eating today!"
"Glad you enjoyed it!"
The proprietress grinned from ear to ear, about to give change.
Yunqing chuckled softly and said, "No need to give change! If you do, you’ll be making a loss!"
"How can that be!"
"I can’t always take advantage of sister’s kindness! If it goes on like this, we wouldn’t dare to co and eat anymore!"
Seeing Shen Yunqing say so, the proprietress finally accepted the money.
"Then, co again next ti!"
"Will do, for sure!"
The group left the little hotpot restaurant, and Tong Xi, watching Yunqing’s retreating figure, shook her head and chuckled.
This guy, he does have a bit of conscience! Otherwise, the proprietress would have really taken a loss!
Shen Yufeng and An Xiaoyu offered to take them back, but Tong Xi waved her hand.
"I’d like to take a stroll for a bit. It’s not far anyway."
And Yunqing added, "Yeah, I’ll take a stroll as well! Just happens I can be a Flower Guardian!"
Tong Xi shuddered: "..."
Flower Guardian? Him? She’d be grateful if he didn’t ruin everything with his touch!
