"Uh..." Li Yan had already snapped out of it. He seed to have promised Hai Fu earlier, and if he invited Qianyi for dinner again... wait, there’s also Huang Ying! He’s a bit dizzy... "Didn’t I treat you to drinks last ti? Do I really need to treat you to dinner separately?"
"Hey! Are you that stingy? Are you saying you treated to drinks last ti? Did you even call to invite ?"
Li Yan couldn’t answer Wen Qianyi’s question, because the last ti wasn’t a specific invitation for her; he was with Sun Hui and Xu Ping and just happened to run into her.
"Feeling guilty now? Embarrassed, aren’t you? Last ti, we just happened to drink together, even though you were treating. But you stayed at my place for free, I didn’t charge you any overnight fee! And you..." Wen Qianyi wanted to say, "And you took advantage of ," but decided it wasn’t appropriate to ntion.
"Yes, yes, I really am embarrassed..." Li Yan said sincerely.
"Pfft! A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory..." Wen Qianyi teased coquettishly, then imdiately laughed, "Fine, ten als it is. Tonight’s the first, I’ll jot it down right now."
Li Yan smiled wryly, "Ten als are not a problem, but I don’t have ti tonight. How about... the night after tomorrow? You can decide what to eat and drink, just don’t sell out!"
This wasn’t rely to get out of the current situation, but also to set the stage for her birthday the day after tomorrow. To surprise her, he had to act like he knew nothing about her upcoming birthday.
"No way!" Wen Qianyi imdiately refused with a smile, "Hehe, you can’t just dodge this one. The day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow. You owe ten als, and I can ask any ti today, tomorrow, or the day after! But considering you have a girlfriend to accompany, I won’t force you on Christmas, but you have to treat tonight and the day after tomorrow!"
"You really want ten als, huh? I say, Qian, haven’t you had a bad investnt and ran out of money for food?"
"Hmph, don’t get so chummy. Even if you called Aunt (Qian), Auntie won’t be polite to you today."
Li Yan was speechless. Even on the phone, he could envision Wen Qianyi’s triumphant, smug face. He sighed silently, Qianyi, oh Qianyi, it’s not that I don’t want to treat you to dinner. Am I that stingy? It’s just that I can’t be in two places at once. You can’t have dine with Huang Ying at six, eat with you at seven, and rush over to Hai Fu by eight, can you?
He still rembered the concert event vividly. At that ti, he had to accompany Zhang Yurong, Yue Yao, Yu Xiaodi, Wen Qianyi, Huang Ying, and Hai Fu to the sa concert. He could only stay at each place for a short while, changing outfits and running around all night. He even had to take care of Li Jie and Nian Yufei, absolutely swamped. The consequences were severe, Hai Fu and Huang Ying left early, and Wen Qianyi, Zhang Yurong, and Yu Xiaodi bumped into each other, arguing over the vixen issue...
Having learned from that experience, Li Yan certainly wouldn’t schedule overlapping plans like that again. Even when these passive encounters happen, he must find a way to stagger them!
"Hey, Qianyi, ten als are nothing. Dare to eat with for ten years?" Li Yan threw in a aningful question at this mont.
Wen Qianyi didn’t seem to get it, "Don’t try to trick with excuses. I’ve decided." She hung up the phone afterward.
What to do? Invite them all for hot pot? Get it all settled in one al! Li Yan smiled bitterly. When dining with girls, it’s not about the food but the atmosphere and significance. Inviting them all for hot pot might solve the money and people problem, but it could lead to another concert hall incident...
Alas, why is everyone so considerate? Unintentionally clearing Christmas for but crowding all into Christmas Eve.
At this mont, the phone rang again...
