In the quiet Western restaurant, Yu Zichen and Mu Anqing sat face to face.
Until the meal was ordered, the two of them said no more than five words, and a silent silence filled the air.
Suddenly, a melodious ringtone of the cell phone broke the silent atmosphere.
"Well, I'll answer the phone." Mu Anqing put down the knife and fork, then took out her cell phone from her pocket.
Seeing the three words jumping on the caller ID on the screen, Mu Anqing couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, but it wouldn't work if she didn't answer.
So she pressed the answer button without hesitation.
"An Qing, have you been home?" Su Yijin's brisk voice came from the other end of the phone.
"No!"
"I just went to the gallery and found that the door was closed. Since you are not there, where is it?"
"Oh, I'm on the way home." Mu Anqing lied to Su Yijin casually.
"Then I'll go to your house to pick you up later! Let's have a meal together, how about it?"
"Ah! No!" Mu Anqing refused Su Yijin's request without even thinking about it.
"What's wrong with you? What's so excited?" Su Yijin on the other end of the phone couldn't help frowning, and finally noticed something was wrong.
"Nothing!" Mu Anqing paused, and then said, "I will go to the Central Mall to buy something later, otherwise we will meet there!"
"Yeah, okay! See you later."
"Yeah, okay." After Mu Anqing finished speaking, she slowly hung up the phone.
My boyfriend is more important than my friend anyway, and Su Yijin is so kind to her, and she really feels happy with what she lies to him, so she is reluctant to refuse his request.
"It's Jin's phone call!" Yu Zichen's words suddenly brought back Mu Anqing's thoughts.
"Yeah." Mu Anqing nodded first, and then added: "Jin he has something to ask me for, so..."
"An Qing, can't you finish this meal with me?" Yu Zichen's eyes were filled with a hint of desire, and he raised his eyes and asked Mu Anqing with some uncertainty.
He seemed to have grown up suddenly overnight, no longer the domineering and somewhat childish little boy he used to be.
Seeing Yu Zichen so distressing, Mu Anqing couldn't bear to refuse him, but after all, he was not as important as Su Yijin now, so she must learn to cherish the people in front of her.
"But Jin really has something urgent to ask me for!" Mu Anqing's hands were placed under the table, and her whole body was tense.
"Forget it, you go first!" Yu Zichen waved his hand to Mu Anqing, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
"Yu Zichen, I'm sorry! I'll pay the account today!" After saying that, Mu Anqing took out his wallet and then recruited a waiter.
