Once Li Xiu Wen sat down, the atmosphere at the dining table became colder.

Lin Xuan carried the little kiddo from Wang Lu’s arms and started to talk with the little kiddo.

Li Xiu Wen did not feel a tinge awkwardness, as if he was used to Lin Xuan’s coldness.

He smiled and took out a piece of card. He then placed it on the table and gently pushed it towards Lin Xuan. He said, “Xuan Xuan, this is the Tang Pavilion VIP card. With this card, you can dine at Tang Pavilion whenever you want, reservations are no longer required.”

There was no need to queue to make a reservation, and moreover, the bill could be waived.

Of course, Li Xiu Wen did not say it.

Tang Pavilion, the only 3 Michelin star restaurant in China. It mainly served famous traditional Chinese and Cantonese cuisines. Each person costs about 1,000¥ and reservation had to be made 1 month prior.

However, after he finished saying, Lin Xuan did not respond, as if she did not hear him at all.

Meanwhile, Wang Lu immediately exclaimed with sparks coming out of her eyes.

She held the card in her hand and after carefully analyzing it, she said with a newfound surprise, “Tang Pavilion even have membership cards? How come I’ve never heard of it before? Every time I go, I’ll have to make a call for reservation first. At times, there will only be space after 1 month.”

Wang Lu passed the membership card to Lin Xuan and smiled, “Xuan Xuan, quickly take it. So that we can have a big feast anytime we want ah!”

“Not interested.”

Without sparing a glance, Lin Xuan carried the little kiddo and asked, “My dear, are you full?”

The little kiddo nodded her head and childishly said, “I so full ah. Thank you, big sis.”

“Good, mua!”

Lin Xuan gave a kiss on Nian Nian’s small cheek and continued, “Do you want big sis to bring you and see the Dian river? It is really pretty at night.”

“Okay!”

The little kiddo was already fidgeting on her seat. Hence, she reached out her hands and hanged it on Lin Xuan’s neck.

Lin Xuan supported her from below as she stood up and said, “I will bring the child to the rooftop. You guys slowly eat.”

After saying that, she stood up and left, leaving the rest looking at each other in dismay.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. After a while, Fang Lei placed down her cutlery as she made her way to the balcony at the rooftop.

It was evident that this meal could no longer be continued.

Li Xiu Wen called a waiter as he prepared to settle the bill. However, he was told that a lady had already paid the bill. Hearing that, he helplessly glanced at Wang Lu.

Not wanting to listen to what others had to say and also refusing to listen to flowery words were really hard to handle…

Due to the presence of Chen Xi, Li Xiu Wen could not discuss anything much with Wang Lu. Hence, he could only instruct the waiter to clear the table.

Then, Li Xiu Wen prepared to advance to the balcony, attempting to find an alone talk with Lin Xuan.

Chen Xi followed behind the 2 of them, preparing to sit around for a while before bringing Nian Nian home.

At this time, his phone suddenly rang.

Chen Xi glanced at the number, it was from a stranger. Hence, he stopped and answered.

“Hello?”

“Mr Chen? I’m Ning Qiu Tong, I…”

Without waiting for her to finish, Chen Xi immediately hanged up and turned off his phone.

The top of Sali restaurant was a balcony bar. The balcony bar was more famous than the Sali restaurant as it was able to cover the majority of the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Dian river.

Upon stepping onto the rooftop, one could see the opposite bank of Dian River; Towering skyscrapers appeared undulated like the unbroken chain of mountain peaks.

Leaning onto the fence, one could gaze into the distance. Neon lights flashed as waves of sea wind welcomed those admired the scenery. Looking at it, one could not help but feel refreshed and calmed.

Chen Xi finally found Lin Xuan. She was leaning against the fence while talking softly to Fang Lei. As for the little kiddo, she sat obediently in her arms. Hence, Chen Xi did not bother them and found a place to sit at the side.

Whenever night approaches, the entire city will then selflessly exhibit its glorious beauty.

The famous city, brilliant lights and vibrant colours reflected. Displays of fireworks and lanterns filled the night sky.

… … …

While Chen Xi was seating on the sofa admiring the riverside scenery, Li Xiu Wen and Wang Lu brought 2 people along from who knows where.

“Xuan Xuan, Lei Lei, quickly come here. It’s such a coincidence to bump into 2 of our old schoolmates here.”

While saying, Wang Lu attended them to take a seat.

As Lin Xuan and Fang Lei were disturbed, they could only temporary pause their conversation.

Next, Lin Xuan carried Nian Nian and sat beside Chen Xi.

“Papa, carry.”

When the little kiddo saw that Chen Xi was just right beside, she crawled from Lin Xuan’s lap to his.

When Lin Xuan and Fang Lei had sat down, Wang Lu smiled to the people beside her and said, “Lin Xuan, Fang Lei. You all should know these famous beauties in our major.”

“Wei Xiao Ming, Zhao Yuan. The handsome dudes from the Engineering course. Recognize?”

However, when Lin Xuan heard the name Zhao Yuan, she could not help but glance at Chen Xi.

Next, the man named Zhao Yuan saw Chen Xi and laughed involuntarily, “Chen Xi?”

Chen Xi looked at him and nodded. He replied, “Long time no see.”

Zhao Yuan used to be an influential figure in Zhong Hai University.

He once did an earth-shattering thing that shook the whole school, it even made it to the headline news.

A year 2 student used rose petals to cover the entire school field so as to confess his feelings to the girl in his heart. This kind of frantic and nouveau riche action had sparked quite a debate.

200 rose petals were able to cover 1 square meter, and a school field had an area of at least 6, 400 square meters. In order to cover the entire field, one needed at least a few million of petals.

The cost of the rose petals had exceeded 500, 000, which did not include labour cost and transportation cost. This kind of shocking way to woo had caused quite a sensation in the entire country.

Sadly, this kind of heavenly shocking way of confessing was finally coldly rejected by the female character.

According to the informants, the female character was also present on that day. However, she did not care about Zhao Yuan’s heartfelt confession and instead, she fervently kissed another male student under the gazes of the masses.

To be honest, even if Chen Xi recalled that scene now, he could deeply understand Zhao Yuan’s embarrassment.

When beating people up, one would avoid the face. However, the actions of the female character were like dishing out one tight slap, and then rubbing their face in shit…

Later, Chen Xi and Ying Ying talked started to talk about that incident.

At that time, a single sentence from Ying Ying allowed Chen Xi to fully understand the righteousness in the female character’s actions.

“He knew that she already had a boyfriend and yet he displayed his affection so openly and even called so many people to support. Tell me…If the girl accepted it, how would the boyfriend feel? Why don’t, I give you a chance to experience this?”

That’s right, that female character was Ying Ying.

Zhao Yuan deeply looked at Chen Xi. Although many years had gone by, that incident had become the biggest shadow in his heart.

When he saw the little kiddo in Chen Xi’s arms, he slightly smiled and asked, “You guys’ daughter?”

“Yea, she’s very cute, right? Come, Nian Nian, call uncle.”

Chen Xi smiled and pointed at Zhao Yuan as he said to the little kiddo.

The little kiddo was very obedient, she sweetly called out, “Uncle.”

Hearing that, his expression froze as his facial muscles tensed.

Lin Xuan viciously glared at Wang Lu. Standing behind the group, Wang Lu silently signaled that she was sorry.

That year, Wang Lu’s relationship with the other 3 was not as close as now. When that incident happened, she was not there at the scene, thus, she did not have a deep impression of that incident.

If she had thought of it earlier, she would not have brought Zhao Yuan even if she was beaten to death.

However, Li Xiu Wen was not aware of the incident between the 2 of them. Hence, he slightly laughed and said, “Since we are all old classmates, we don’t have to stand on ceremony. Quickly sit down, we shall drink till we get drunk!”
