No? Can I read the mind of my mortal enemy?

No one expected it to be such a coincidence.

"Sit wherever you like, Feng Heng. Have you had dinner yet? Want to eat together?" Jiang Youran opened the food delivery app, wondering if she should order two more dishes.

Feng Heng smiled and said, "It's alright, I don't need it..."

"Gurgle," his stomach growled at an inopportune moment.

Jiang Youran smiled and said, "Alright, Feng Heng, don't refuse. It's just a trial class today, and I'll explain it to my parents."

"The food in the port city was too bland. I'll just order two hearty dishes. You can treat it as a small get-together with friends."

Shi Qiao nodded, laboriously placed the insulated bag in her hand on the dining table, pulled out a chair and sat down, intending to wait for Jiang Youran's takeout to arrive before eating together.

Jiang was still a little confused. "You three know each other?"

"You're lucky, Jiang Ye," Shi Qiao chimed in. "Feng Heng is my and Youyou's high school classmate, and he's the most reliable classmate in our class."

She turned to Jiang Youran, "I remember when the teacher asked him to go up and write down the steps to answer the question, his handwriting was so beautiful, in regular script."

Jiang Youran propped her head up with one hand, "Yeah, if I had known earlier that my parents hired Feng Heng as their tutor, I wouldn't have even bothered to look at him, I would have just dragged Qiao out to eat."

"Feng Heng, can you handle spicy food?"

She looked up and saw Feng Heng's gaze fixed blankly on Shi Qiao.

He pursed his lips slightly, then quickly looked away, fixing his gaze on his fingertips that were nervously rubbing together.

He never expected that the high-paying part-time job he received during winter break would lead to him running into a high school classmate.

And sometimes it's just a coincidence.

He knew that Shi Qiao had taken his two-minute confession at the class reunion as an act.

They also found out who Shi Qiao's boyfriend was.

To be honest, his mind went completely blank the moment he crashed into it.

It felt like something was choking my heart, preventing blood from flowing in and making it hard to breathe.

I can't move my body, and I can't walk away.

Then, once he regained his mobility, he fled the scene as if his life depended on it.

It seems unexpected that Shi Qiao would be with Pei Jingnian, but in fact it was entirely reasonable.

They were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since they were little, and also a perfect match in terms of social standing.

It would be unreasonable for them not to be together.

That's why he was even more aware that his feelings for Shi Qiao would never blossom into anything.

But when faced with the harsh reality, it's undeniable that a sour feeling of discomfort wells up in one's chest.

So he found it hard to control himself and sat alone, drinking glass after glass of strong liquor.

It was then that he truly understood what it meant to drown one's sorrows in alcohol only to find them worse.

He woke up the next day, completely drunk, in a shared apartment that he had been searching for for a long time and found at a reasonable price.

He stared at the cramped single room, where even passing through was difficult, and then felt relieved.

At least he acted bravely once, fueled by his drunkenness.

It's okay if the other party takes it as a joke.

He was also happy for Shi Qiao, who had chosen someone who was truly right for her.

"Teacher Feng?" Jiang Ye waved her hand in front of Feng Heng's eyes.

Feng Heng snapped out of his daze, "I'm fine with anything, I don't have any dietary restrictions."

About ten minutes later, the first batch of takeout Jiang Youran ordered arrived.

The group busily unpacked and arranged the takeout orders.

"Eat first, eat first, I'm starving!" Jiang Youran took off her disposable gloves and blew on them.

Shi Qiao also opened the insulated bag, and the dishes inside looked bland and watery.

If it were any other time, Shi Qiao would definitely find it delicious.

But during my period, I always crave food.

The urge to eat cold or spicy food came like a ghost.

She stared resentfully at the takeout food on Youyou's end.

Jiang Youran picked up a bright red crayfish that was still glistening with oil and waved it in front of Shi Qiao.

"Wow, these crayfish smell delicious!"

"What a pity! Our poor Qiao won't be able to enjoy this today."

Shi Qiao gritted her teeth, "Youyou, remember what you said today. You'll regret it a week from now!"

"I'll bring an ice cream to your house and eat it right in front of you!"

Jiang had already peeled a shrimp and dipped it in minced garlic. "The garlic crayfish isn't very spicy, so it should be fine, right?"

Jiang Youran patted Jiang Ye on the back, "Little brother, you need to learn this knowledge now."

"You can't just treat a girl's period casually."

"You'll understand when you have a girlfriend."

As soon as Jiang heard the words "girlfriend," her ears turned red instantly. "Sis, you, you're talking nonsense."

Shi Qiao was still disassembling the tall pagoda-shaped lunchbox when she heard this, her almond-shaped eyes narrowed, and she raised her eyebrows.

"Jiang Ye, you don't have someone you like, do you?"

Jiang stammered, "Get out of here! All I can think about right now is studying!!"

Jiang Youran chuckled, "You only have biology on your mind and you still only got 23 points."

Are you still taking the wrong path in your studies?

Jiang Ye: "Sister!!!"

Shi Qiao laughed out loud, "It seems that Feng Heng, you'll have to pay more attention to Jiang Ye's biological activity later."

Feng Heng looked at Shi Qiao's slightly puffed-up eyelids as she smiled, the warm light reflecting off her dark eyes, making them as dazzling as stars scattered across the sea.

That's fine too.

"I brought three sets of test questions. Jiang, you can take them first so I can quickly understand your situation."

Jiang, munching on a crayfish, said, "Teacher Feng, in front of such delicious crayfish, let's not talk about such disgusting things, okay..."

Buzz, Shi Qiao's phone vibrated twice.

[Pei Jingnian: Honey, did Aunt Shen bring you your food?]

Oh right, there's also a steward over here.

This cannot be ignored.

Shi Qiao arranged all the dishes neatly and took a picture from top to bottom.

send.

[Shi Qiao: I got everything, and I'm just about to start eating.]

[Pei Jingnian: Yes, my wife is amazing.]

He opened the picture sent by Shi Qiao and observed it carefully. The takeout box was visible in the upper left corner, and Shi Qiao was sitting quite far away.

They must have obediently listened to what they were told.

He squinted, staring at the "Live" button in the lower left corner.

My wife probably didn't notice; she posted a screenshot of the live stream.

He clicked without hesitation.

The background noise was somewhat chaotic, mixed with a man's voice.

To be precise.

It was a mixture of two men's voices.

Pei Jingnian lightly touched his front teeth with the tip of his tongue and narrowed his eyes.

Who else?
