Chapter 464 You still have to avoid people!
Lu Yuanqiu picked up a piece of raw corn and looked at his sister with a forced smile: "Dongdong, did you choke? Let your brother help you clear your mouth."

Lu Yidong's reasons for being happy seemed different from her parents'. She immediately burst into laughter: "I knew it was fake, hahaha—"

Su Xiaoya stuffed corn into her mouth.

Bai Qingxia blinked her eyelashes, her face slightly flushed, and continued to turn the grilled meat with the tongs, remaining silent on the issue, neither admitting nor denying it.

Lu Yuanqiu could only formally explain, "The school filmed a promotional video this time, and Bai Qingxia and I played..."

After hearing the whole story, Su Xiaoya immediately laughed: "That works too... Oh no, I mean... when will the promotional video be released?"

"Next September, perhaps."

Lu Yidong breathed a sigh of relief: "You scared me! I thought you two were going to start dating. Sister Bai is already my biological sister. You're related by blood, you can't date! Waaah—"

This time, Lu Tian stuffed a corn cob into her mouth, then calmly continued eating the grilled meat.

"Ahem..." The atmosphere between Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia suddenly became awkward. Bai Qingxia kept mechanically flipping the grilled meat without eating a single piece. Lu Yuanqiu stuffed some lettuce into his mouth and then glanced at her: "Don't just grill, you should eat some too."

"I...I'm not very hungry." Bai Qingxia suddenly stammered, not daring to look at him.

Su Xiaoya glanced at the two people opposite her. Although she had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, she couldn't bring herself to ask them.

Actually, there was some truth to what Lu Yidong meant. Although it was never explicitly stated, Bai Qingxia was more like an "adopted daughter" to their family. In addition, due to Bai Qingxia's personality, she was sensitive and insecure. Of course, she seemed to be doing much better now... In any case, it was really difficult for her and Lu Tian to ask about this.

Afraid of saying something wrong and causing Bai Qingxia to misunderstand that they were morally blackmailing each other, and also afraid that the children would have their own goals and plans and they shouldn't interfere too much, they only dared to watch the two children develop on their own like bystanders.

However, in this state of mind, as parents, they get incredibly excited and thrilled whenever they hear that their two children have done something intimate that goes beyond friendship.

Before coming, the couple had hoped that the two children would hold hands in front of them, but they hadn't seen it yet... Maybe the two children held hands when they weren't there? They were too embarrassed to ask, and they were even too embarrassed to ask their son alone, as they could imagine him giving them a few impatient replies.

We've all been there; the ambiguity of adolescence is probably like this: shy, awkward, sensitive, and cautious.

Dongdong, that silly girl, doesn't understand anything, but the couple can see that their proud daughter has a complicated mind. Dongdong likes Sister Bai and also likes her brother, but if Sister Bai and her brother are together, the silly girl will feel abandoned by both of them, which is why she doesn't want them to be together.

But in front of outsiders, Dongdong would still firmly tell them that Sister Bai and Brother Bai are a couple and no one can interfere.

Compared to her brother being with Bai Jie, Dongdong is more resistant to Bai Jie being with other men, or her brother being with other women. Rather than that, it would be better to let the two of them settle things internally.

"I'm going to the restroom..." Bai Qingxia pursed her lips and stood up.

Lu Yuanqiu leaned back to let her pass.

After Bai Qingxia left, Lu Yuanqiu put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm going to the restroom too."

The couple immediately sensed something was wrong and simultaneously raised their heads.

After Lu Yuanqiu left, Su Xiaoya quickly tapped her daughter on the head: "Still eating?!"

"What?" Lu Yidong looked up, displeased.

Su Xiaoya raised an eyebrow: "Go and follow them, and go to the bathroom at the same time. See if they take the opportunity to steal a kiss. What if they're already together and keeping it from us?" Lu Tian nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes, listen to what they have to say."

"Huh?!" Lu Yidong realized what was happening and instantly lost his appetite. He quickly got up and quietly swung his arm to follow.

At the restroom entrance, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia came out to wash their hands at the same time. They glanced back at each other, and Bai Qingxia blinked first, avoiding his gaze. To ease the awkwardness, Lu Yuanqiu backed away, bumping his butt against hers.

Bai Qingxia snorted softly and leaned against the sink. She turned around and angrily slapped Lu Yuanqiu on the back. Lu Yuanqiu cried out in pain and laughed, but the awkward atmosphere between the two was eased.

"Pervert." Lu Yidong, who was behind the wall, frowned and quickly ran back to report.

"My brother bumped into Sister Bai's butt from behind right at the bathroom door! Sister Bai was practically lying on the sink!"

"Pfft!" The couple stared wide-eyed, simultaneously spitting a mouthful of tea onto their daughter's face.

Lu Yidong closed her eyes, raised her small hand and wiped her face. She was already annoyed, and now she wanted to cry.

"Developing so fast?! We still need to avoid people! My goodness!" Su Xiaoya said, her face flushed.

Lu Tian stammered, "You...you hurry, hurry, go and make them stop! It's not convenient for me to go, you go!"

"I'm going to... wait, who told you I'm convenient?! You rascal! How am I, as a mother, convenient?!" Su Xiaoya was so anxious that she hit her husband back and forth with both hands.

Lu Yidong took a few tissues to wipe her face. Looking at her parents' frantic state, she was a little confused. Wasn't what she was trying to say just that her brother was being a jerk again?
At the entrance to the restroom, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia didn't rush back.

Lu Yuanqiu asked with a smile, "Why didn't you avoid that mobile phone store when you came for dinner today?"

Bai Qingxia smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "Because I paid him back half a month ago. The boss was very easy to talk to, so I gave him 2,500 yuan, and he accepted it."

Lu Yuanqiu didn't laugh.

"You...what did you say?"

Seeing Lu Yuanqiu's expression, Bai Qingxia said seriously, "The phone is indeed fine. I've thought about it, and I still can't take such a big advantage of them, and besides..."

Her face turned embarrassed, and she scratched her head with one finger: "Besides, it's always a detour, which is inconvenient, so I might as well just give him the money back. I checked, the original price was five thousand, so I only paid three thousand."

Lu Yuanqiu counted on his hand and realized that it wasn't three thousand yuan, but eight thousand yuan.

He looked up: "The boss didn't say anything, he just took the money?"

Bai Qingxia nodded: "Mm."

Looking at Bai Qingxia's relaxed smile, Lu Yuanqiu thought for a moment and decided to consider his five thousand yuan as payment for that smile.

The two went back together and arrived at the dining table. Lu Tian and Su Xiaoya immediately picked up food with unnatural expressions, their faces flushed.

Lu Yuanqiu glanced at the two of them, feeling somewhat puzzled. What were these two being so shy about?
