Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed Chapter 142 - 102 Lin Yuwei: Did the Boss Get a New Girlfrie

The events of his past life were clearly branded in his mind. Sotis, in the dead of night, he would wonder if he had truly been reborn or if he had just woken up from an incredibly realistic dream.

Not long after Li Yuan sent his ssage, another one arrived from Zhong Tingyue.

[Are you free tonight? I want to sing a song for you! Smiling face.jpg]

An offer this good? Li Yuan thought, his mind instantly flashing back to the night before. He rembered Zhong Tingyue on the soccer field under the moonlight, dancing the "Love Waltz" like a true Moonlight Goddess.

He was about to reply yes when he suddenly rembered the words Bai Weixi had spoken to him in the movie theater, words that had left him particularly restless. He forcefully suppressed the urge to et Zhong Tingyue and managed to type a difficult reply.

[Little Moon, sothing special ca up tonight. How about tomorrow night? I’ll have ti then.]

Zhong Tingyue replied quickly.

[Okay, great! It’s a date then, see you tomorrow! Happy.jpg]

[It’s a date!]

Li Yuan’s heart thumped. A guilty feeling crept over him, and he stole a glance at Bai Weixi. Seeing her chatting happily with Wang Yuchen, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Yuan continued scrolling through his ssages and discovered one from an hour ago. The sender’s ID was "Love Eating Cilantro."

A ssage from Little Fish? Li Yuan wondered, quickly opening it.

[Xia Hua, are you free tomorrow? I’ll co find you. The gift I prepared for you has arrived.]

Li Yuan read the ssage, recalling their phone call the other day when Little Fish had indeed ntioned a special gift.

But why tomorrow again?

Li Yuan felt a little apprehensive. Little Fish was coming to the university to find him. It wasn’t sothing he could refuse, was it? He suddenly rembered the first ti Little Fish ca to see him. That day, she had worn a Hanfu dress, which, combined with her ethereal beauty, had attracted a crowd of onlookers and people secretly taking photos. If she ca looking for him at Daxia University again, things could get dangerous.

After all, at Daxia University, he had his two girlfriends, Xia Zhijin and Bai Weixi, as well as his ambiguous romantic interest, Zhong Tingyue.

If this situation blows up in my face...

A shiver ran down Li Yuan’s spine.

Damn, I feel like I’m walking a tightrope over a mountain of swords and a sea of fire. This is all going to blow up before it even begins, isn’t it?

After much deliberation, Li Yuan still didn’t have the guts to let Little Fish co to Daxia University. He was afraid he wouldn’t be able to control the situation.

[I haven’t visited your school yet. How about I co find you tomorrow? You can give a tour.]

Jiang Zhiyu didn’t reply imdiately after he sent the ssage. Li Yuan continued scrolling through his notifications, replying to a few of them.

Suddenly, Wang Yuchen’s teasing voice cut in again. "Li Yuan, you’re sure a busy man, glued to your phone this whole ti. Who are you secretly ssaging?"

Li Yuan glanced at Wang Yuchen, puzzled. Why is this Little Chili always targeting ? What did I ever do to her?

"Little Chili, I think you should be more worried about Dazhi than ."

Wang Yuchen snorted. "Dazhi is much better than you. I’m not worried about him in the least. He wouldn’t dare."

"You, on the other hand, already have Bai. You’d better not be out there flirting around and doing things to betray her."

Are you Bai Weixi’s mother? You’re so nosy, Li Yuan thought. He was now starting to suspect that in his past life, Bai Weixi’s transformation into a phony girl just two years into university was Wang Yuchen’s influence. This was the era when romantic relationships began to turn sour. The number of so-called ’Little Fairies,’ phony girls, and Gold-Digger Girls was surging. Of course, even more prevalent was the transformation of ’nice guys’ into simps, which officially kicked off the ’simp economy.’

Li Yuan shot Xu Zhi a look, giving him a aningful glance. That guy was utterly spineless, completely unable to handle the Little Chili, Wang Yuchen.

Xu Zhi felt awkward under Li Yuan’s gaze. What could he do? He hadn’t even successfully wooed her yet.

Just then, they arrived at the Huasha Seafood Buffet.

Without a change in his expression, Li Yuan slipped his phone into his pocket and said with a smile, "We’re here. Let’s go inside."

Wang Yuchen, Bai Weixi, and the others looked at the lavishly decorated seafood buffet, their earlier moods replaced by excitent. As people from an inland region, they rarely had the chance to eat seafood.

As a high-end seafood buffet, Huasha Seafood Restaurant wasn’t just luxuriously decorated; even the waitstaff were stunning. They were all tall won, around 1.7 ters, with looks that would make them the belle of any typical university science class.

A waitress bowed politely. "Welco to Huasha. How many in your party, sir? Do you have a reservation?"

"Five, no reservation," Li Yuan answered nonchalantly.

The waitress didn’t look down on them for being university students. She kept her smile and began her introduction. "Sir, Huasha is having a sumr special. It’s only 688 per person for all-you-can-eat and drink. We have fresh hairy crabs, Aolong, King Crab, salmon, tuna..."

Li Yuan thought the price was reasonable. Prices weren’t that high yet. Before he had decided to return to his hotown in his past life, he had eaten here one last ti with a girlfriend, and it had cost 1,488 yuan per person—much more expensive than now. Of course, by that point, prices had skyrocketed across the board.

Hearing the price, Xu Zhi, Wang Shuai, Wang Yuchen, and Bai Weixi were all stunned. At 688 yuan per person, the total for five people would be nearly 3,500 yuan. That was almost six months of their living expenses.
