Shi Nianyao cooperated seamlessly, “Oh, Chief Editor Lian Lian, what a coincidence! Fancy running into you here. Let’s eat together!”

Shen Liangchuan was quite flabbergasted.

Mo Xicheng: …

Did these two women take them for fools?

Would Shi Nianyao come for hotpot here alone?

Besides, that fake greeting… This was Hengdian, the capital city of drama.

The corners of Shen Liangchuan’s mouth curved upwards into a slight smile. Now he understood why the woman had been pestering him for an answer as to what they were having for dinner.

As for Mo Xicheng…

His expression darkened the moment he saw Shi Nianyao.

He was a gloomy person to begin with, but now he looked even more abstruse.

He tensed his chin and, although he had not said anything, his body language suggested that he had suddenly distanced himself.

When Qiao Lian observed this, she immediately understood what Shi Nianyao meant.

It seemed that Mo Xicheng… wasn’t too welcoming towards Shi Nianyao.

However, his upbringing had also taught him not to reject a girl and embarrass her. Hence, he said nothing and merely kept a distance. He gave her a nod of acknowledgment before heading into the private room.

Shi Nianyao opened her mouth in a motion to say something, but before she could do so, he was gone…

Leaving the words stuck in her throat.

Looking hurt, she frowned as she looked at his disappearing figure wistfully.

In the private room.

Because it was only the four of them, the room wasn’t a very big one.

Tastefully decorated in a traditional theme, there were only four chairs, two in a row.

Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan walked into the room and saw that Mo Xicheng had sat down.

She hurriedly tugged at Shen Liangchuan and took a section for them. Raising her eyebrows and glancing at Shi Nianyao, she tried not to be too obvious about her intentions to create an opportunity for the two.

Shi Nianyao walked over and sat next to Mo Xicheng.

In reaction to this, although there was no change in his facial expression, Mo Xicheng shifted slightly away to create more distance between himself and the girl.

Shi Nianyao paused at his movement and then turned to look at him with a startled expression.

Qiao Lian too felt that Mo Xicheng’s action was uncalled for; in fact, it was a bit much.

She turned to give Shen Liangchuan a look.

Shen Liangchuan kept silent.

Being buddies, there was no way he could intervene.

If Mo Xicheng didn’t fancy Shi Nianyao, could he force them to be together, really?

At once, Shi Nianyao’s heart sank.

Because of this episode, the atmosphere in the room became quiet and gloomy.

Shen Liangchuan and Mo Xicheng found a topic to talk about and started to discuss the character Cao Cao.

Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao, on the other hand, stared at each other and after a while, the latter pouted.

Qiao Lian kept silent.

Qiao Lian extended her arm and gave Shen Liangchuan a poke, interrupting his conversation with Mo Xicheng. She leaned into him and said in a low voice, “Talk to me!”

She wanted to create an opportunity for Mo Xicheng and Shi Nianyao to talk to each other.

Shen Liangchuan was quite flabbergasted.

On the other side of the table, Shi Nianyao finally found the chance. She lifted her glass of fruit juice and held it out to Mo Xicheng, saying, “Mo Xicheng, thank you for taking care of me recently.”

Looking down, he lifted his glass in response and took a sip. Then he said in an emotionless tone, “You’re welcome.”

“This attitude!” thought Shi Nianyao, “How am I supposed to continue the conversation?!”

Shortly afterwards, the waitress served the hot pot.

This restaurant used individual pots, so they each had their own.

The waitress arranged the four hotpots on the table for the guests.

When the waitress moved to serve Shi Nianyao’s hot pot, one of her high heels suddenly gave way and the little pot tipped over in Shi Nianyao’s direction.
