Chapter 167 Adding to the Trouble
Amidst the steaming hot pot and cheerful laughter, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open, bringing in a gust of cold wind.
A girl with a high ponytail walked straight in.
Bai Li was discussing a popular TV series with Tang Tang when the chilly wind made her shrink her neck and look up towards the door.
I just thought this girl's outfit was pretty trendy. She was wearing a loose-fitting sports hoodie with the sleeves casually rolled up to her elbows. On her exposed wrists, she wore the latest gaming bracelet. On her lower body, she wore a pair of very unique fluorescent green socks with the words "Everyone's a Villain" printed on them.
Bai Li felt that such a flamboyant outfit would never appear in her wardrobe. It wasn't that it was bad-looking, but it just didn't match her style.
The boy sitting in the corner spotted her first and quickly raised his hand, waving it vigorously while shouting at the top of his lungs, "Lin Yue, over here!"
Judging from their appearance, it was clear that a spot had been reserved for her long ago.
However, Lin Yue seemed not to hear her. After looking around the private room, she smiled and said in a clear and loud voice, "Isn't there one more seat at my brother Yang's table? I'll sit here."
Having said that, he strode over here.
Bai Li was naturally sensitive and perceptive. Upon hearing the address "Brother Yang," she immediately became alert, her ears perking up.
Oh?
Normally, only people who are very close to Ying Xiangyang, usually his group of buddies, would call him "Brother Yang." But this girl would also casually call him "Brother Yang," which made her very concerned.
Moreover, she chose this table without hesitation, even though another table had already reserved a seat for her.
However, Bai Li didn't doubt Ying Xiangyang. This silly dog was head over heels in love with her, and the system's favorability rating was right there for all to see.
Moreover, she knew Ying Xiangyang's past and how long he had waited for her, so she knew he would never do anything to betray her.
However, Ying Xiangyang's excellence is undeniable. Although he is self-disciplined, he cannot resist those with ulterior motives who approach him like moths to a flame.
Isn't this coming?
Whether it's a woman's innate intuition or Bai Li's own keen insight, in any case, Bai Li could grasp a woman's thoughts as soon as she appeared.
A subtle, almost imperceptible curve appeared at the corner of Bai Li's lips.
Why am I a little excited?
Bai Li secretly pondered, judging from Lin Yue's demeanor, her high-profile and flamboyant behavior, now that she's sitting at this table, there will definitely be more unexpected "spectacular performances" to come.
Thinking this, Bai Li couldn't help but feel excited, wanting to see what she was really up to.
"Oops, I'm late! I'll punish myself with a drink!"
As soon as Lin Yue sat down, she quickly grabbed a brand-new bottle of beer, popped the cap open with a "bang," and then put the bottle to her lips, tilting her head back to gulp down a few mouthfuls.
Ying Xiangyang sat to the side, taking in all of this.
His originally calm brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of surprise and a fleeting trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes.
Lin Yue is one of the few girls in their university's gaming circle who is quite skilled at gaming. With her excellent gaming skills and straightforward personality, she has accumulated a good reputation in the circle.
In the past, when people were short of players to team up for games, others in the community would occasionally call on her.
Over time, he and Lin Yue gradually became acquainted, but their relationship remained merely at the level of familiarity.
However, Ying Xiangyang was not a dullard.
There was a period of time when Lin Yue would often use other people's names to initiate conversations with him.
Moreover, during the game, Ying Xiangyang noticed that Lin Yue would always take care of him intentionally or unintentionally, such as taking the initiative to draw enemy fire or frequently helping him from the top lane as the mid laner. This special "care" was particularly noticeable in team-based games.
It's normal to treat everyone this way, but it's not normal to treat only one person this way. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Ying Xiangyang began to intentionally reduce his contact with Lin Yue.
Lin Yue seemed to have also keenly noticed Ying Xiangyang's change in attitude, and that was the end of the story.
Ying Xiangyang heard that Lin Yue had recently started dating a guy from the sports academy, and thought she should have completely let go of those unrealistic ideas. But this time, she sat down right next to him and acted like they were old friends. They hadn't had any contact for a while. What was Lin Yue up to?
A bad feeling suddenly welled up in Ying Xiangyang's heart.
At the same time, the attention of everyone else in the private room was also drawn to Lin Yue's actions.
When everyone saw her blowing the bottle so boldly, their expressions instantly became a variety of emotions.
Seeing that she was about to finish the whole bottle, Ye Lin looked worried and stopped her, saying, "Lin Yue, don't drink so fast. It's just a little late, it's okay."
However, Lin Yue ignored her and tilted the beer bottle in her hand even more violently, quickly pouring the beer down her throat.
In the blink of an eye, the bottle of beer that was once full was empty.
She actually finished the beer in one go.
The male classmate who had waved to Lin Yue first scratched his head, stood up, and raised his voice, saying, "Lin Yue, we're all friends here today, there's really no need to go to such lengths!"
Lin Yue slammed the beer bottle on the table, then casually wiped the spilled beer from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand, grinned, and said, "No problem. Isn't today my first time meeting your wife? I have to make a good impression."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her head and looked directly at Bai Li sitting opposite her.
Bai Li was observing Lin Yue's every move with great interest when she was suddenly met with that gaze. She was slightly taken aback at first, then tilted her head and realized that the "sister-in-law" Lin Yue was referring to was actually herself.
"Brother Yang, aren't you going to introduce me?" Lin Yue asked, resting her chin on her hand and leaning forward slightly. Her bright orange manicure was particularly eye-catching under the light.
Upon hearing this, Ying Xiangyang's brows furrowed into a deep frown, and his expression instantly darkened.
The honey badger, who was very familiar with Ying Xiangyang, immediately realized that something was wrong.
Depend on.
Which bastard called Lin Yue today?
Yang has been avoiding her for a long time and hasn't hung out with her for ages. Isn't calling her over today just adding insult to injury?
If Lin Yue talks nonsense in front of Bai Li, then everything will be over.
Ying Xiangyang's annoyance had reached its peak, and he almost blurted out, "Do we know each other that well?"
Just then, Bai Li noticed his emotions, and without making a sound, she reached out from under the table, gently pulled Ying Xiangyang, and lightly rubbed his palm with her fingertips.
Then, Bai Li raised her head and said slowly, "Hello, I'm Ying Xiangyang's girlfriend, Bai Li. May I ask what's the matter?"
