Actually, the dinner party was almost over.
Most people were singing and celebrating.
The room was still lively.
Only Xia Ye was still sitting in his original spot.
The area around him, about a ter wide, was filled with a cold air.
No one approached him.
Yet, the attention of the girls was irresistibly drawn to this young man.
Xia Ye sat there quietly.
It was as if he was waiting for sothing.
When he looked up, Xia Ye happened to see Lu Yinxing.
Their eyes t.
For the first ti, Lu Yinxing felt that this boy seed to have many hidden secrets.
He was completely unreadable.
Xia Ye stood up.
He picked up his backpack and walked over to Lu Yinxing.
Xia Ye’s voice was low: "I’m heading back."
Lu Yinxing hadn’t had a chance to speak.
Xia Ye left the private room imdiately.
Many people showed disappointed expressions in their eyes.
Although they got to dine with Xia Ye, they hadn’t had the chance to say a single word.
Originally, Lu Yinxing was soone who enjoyed lively atmospheres.
But for so reason.
Suddenly she lost interest.
Lu Yinxing said goodbye to Wang Jingbo and left early.
When Lu Yinxing left, Wen Quan naturally followed her out.
Lu Yinxing had intended to catch up with Xia Ye.
But by the ti she and Wen Quan got out, Xia Ye was nowhere to be seen.
Lu Yinxing could feel that Xia Ye’s mood wasn’t very good today.
But Lu Yinxing didn’t know why either.
Lu Yinxing and Wen Quan went back together.
They didn’t take a taxi.
The distance from the Qian Family Courtyard to Maple Villa wasn’t too far.
A walk across a pedestrian street would get them there.
Lu Yinxing seed a bit distracted on the way.
Wen Quan asked, "You did so well on this exam, even got first in the class for math. Why do I feel like you’re not happy about it?"
Lu Yinxing sighed and said, "I’m not unhappy."
Wen Quan could tell that Lu Yinxing had sothing on her mind.
The pedestrian street was bustling.
Various mannequins were displayed behind clean floor-to-ceiling windows.
Suddenly, Wen Quan pulled Lu Yinxing into a won’s clothing store.
Lu Yinxing was puzzled, "Why did you pull in here?"
Wen Quan said, "To celebrate your exam achievent, I want to get you a gift."
The store assistant ca over.
Seeing the young boy and girl, she smiled warmly.
This store was a light luxury brand boutique.
It typically did not serve students.
But the assistant could tell that the clothes the two kids were wearing were high-end custom designs.
So details might even be more upscale than major brands.
She figured they were a wealthy young couple.
The assistant smiled and asked, "What do you need?"
Without hesitation, Wen Quan pointed to a pink floral dress on a mannequin, "I want that dress."
Then she pointed to Lu Yinxing, "In her size."
The assistant glanced at Lu Yinxing.
Soon, she brought out a dress in the right size, "The fitting room is over there, let show you the way
?"
Lu Yinxing hadn’t even thought about buying clothes.
Besides, Xia Yangyang had a hobby since childhood of buying her all kinds of clothes.
She had more clothes than she could wear.
Lu Yinxing said, "Forget it, let’s not buy it. Let’s go back."
But Wen Quan wouldn’t have it, "I really like this dress, I think it’d look great on you. Just humor and try it on, okay?"
