While eating, Zhao Shu raised the pastry in her hand in front of Lin Xun, wanting to share this delicious food with him.

Lin Xun looked at the delicious and glutinous pastries in front of him and couldn't help but look proudly at Xie Jin and the others. Then he picked up a piece of pastry, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

Good things should be chewed slowly and savored carefully.

Xie Jin looked solemnly at the boy and girl who were sitting on the stone steps in front of him, one on each side. The handsome boy smiled and turned his head to look at the beautiful girl beside him, while the girl was concentrating on eating the cake in her hand.

Xie Jin looked at her for a while, then suddenly walked towards Zhao Shu. He stood in front of Zhao Shu and stared at her for a while. Seeing that the girl had no intention of paying attention to him, he lifted the edge of his robe and sat down beside her.

Two young men with extremely eye-catching manners and looks sat on the left and right of the girl who was concentrating on eating pastries, like two gatekeepers.

It is not unfair to say that they are like gate gods. Although they are in their prime and youthful years, Xie Jin and Lin Xun have cold expressions on their faces, as if they owe them a huge sum of money and are here to collect the debt!

Wang Yujin didn't want to go over there at all, but Xie Jin was sitting there, so she had no choice but to walk towards them.

Zhao Shu was still struggling with the rose pastry in her hand. Lin Xun glanced at Wang Yujin who was walking towards them, then moved to the side, gently patted the place where he had just sat, and said to Zhao Shu: "Come closer, you are in my way."

Zhao Shu finally stopped what she was doing, raised her face with pastry crumbs all over the corners of her mouth, stared at Lin Xun blankly for a while, then moved aside very obediently.

Seeing this, Lin Xun smiled happily and waved to Wang Yujin: "Come, come, sit here."

Wang Yujin was just about to sit down, but unexpectedly, Xie Jin also moved with Zhao Shu and sat in Zhao Shu's original seat.

Wang Yujin hung his hands at his sides, his fingertips tightly pinching his palms. After feeling the wet touch, Wang Yujin smiled and sat down in Xie Jin's previous seat.

Zhao Shu turned around and whispered to Lin Xun, "Do you want to switch places with me?"

Lin Xun nodded happily. Of course he wanted to! He was very happy about it!

Just as Zhao Shu was about to stand up, Xie Jin grabbed her wrist and looked at her solemnly: "Sit still!"

Zhao Shu was used to hearing his words, and seeing the unhappy look on his face, she didn't dare to resist. She just sat down like a puppet, following his force.

Lin Xun glared at Xie Jin and whispered to Zhao Shu: "Don't be afraid of him! Let's continue to switch. I'll take care of anything if it happens!"

Zhao Shu turned around and looked Lin Xun up and down, then sat down obediently. She had just evaluated Lin Xun's fighting ability and finally came to a conclusion: Lin Xun was no match for Cousin Jin!

Therefore, what he said, "I'll take care of it if anything happens," can only be listened to and should not be taken seriously!
Lin Xun's mood now was as if someone had stuffed seventy or eighty heavy boxes filled with gold, silver and jewelry into his house, but when he opened them, he found that they were filled with a pile of large stones, which made him feel disappointed.

Lin Xun looked at Zhao Shu with anger on his face. Zhao Shu ate the snacks in her hand obediently. Xie Jin sat on the stone steps in silence. Wang Yujin looked at Xie Jin several times, wanting to say something but not speaking, and then looked away again. The weird atmosphere made passers-by imagine a drama of love and hate between rich families.

The four of them sat there with their own thoughts. Zhao Shu was a sensible and well-behaved girl. She just thought that if only she and Lin Xun enjoyed the pastries alone, it would seem a bit stingy of them. So, she handed the pastries in her hand to Xie Jin and asked him to eat.

Unexpectedly, Xie Jin only glanced at her indifferently, without any intention of understanding Zhao Shu's good intentions. He stood up and looked down at Wang Yujin: "Let's go." He didn't even give Zhao Shu a glance.

Hearing this, Wang Yujin stood up hurriedly, fearing that if he was a step slower, Xie Jin would go back on his word.

Xie Jin raised his foot and walked towards the crowd. Wang Yujin bowed to Lin Xun and the others and followed.

Zhao Shu held the pastry in her left hand as if she was stretching it out, and put the pastry into her mouth from time to time with her right hand. She had kept this posture without moving since Xie Jin and the others left.

Lin Xun strode to the seat where Xie Jin sat before, snatched the pastry from Zhao Shu's hand and threw it to the little beggar who had been staring at them.

Zhao Shu's palms felt empty and she turned to look at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun shrugged nonchalantly: "It's just a bag of cakes. Next time you want to eat it, we can buy it again."

Without waiting for Zhao Shu to speak, Lin Xun forcibly pulled Zhao Shu up and walked towards the fireworks by the river.

Zhao Shu staggered two steps, then frowned and pushed Lin Xun's hand away with force.

Lin Xun turned back in surprise, looked at his hand, then at Zhao Shu. It didn't make sense. Although his martial arts skills were not as good as Xie Jin's, they were still decent. And he remembered that the force he had used to hold Zhao Shu's wrist was not strong but not weak either. Even a strong man like Li Yanrong would have to work hard to break free. But Zhao Shu just shook his hand away. This was illogical!

Seeing Lin Xun looking at her suspiciously, Zhao Shu thought of her actions just now, and her heart skipped a beat. Then she looked at him calmly and asked, "What's wrong?"
