Accidentally entered a high gate

Chu Hong'an quickly dismissed the idea that Yan Min had gotten a girlfriend so quickly because he didn't want to get involved with her. Given Yan Min's family background, he had no reason to compromise himself for her.

While wiping his hands, Chu Hong'an looked at Xu Jiajia and asked, "Do you know where Ma Yanmin and his girlfriend are now?"

"I know. They're by the lake now. You're going to settle accounts with Ma Yanmin, right? I'll go with you."

"I'm not going to settle scores with Ma Yanmin. I'm going to invite Ma Yanmin and his girlfriend to dinner."

Xu Jiajia's eyes widened instantly! "You're going to invite Ma Yanmin and his girlfriend to dinner?! Are you talking about the kind of dinner Xiang Yu invited Liu Bang to?!"

Chu Hong'an laughed upon hearing this. "What do you mean by 'a meal like Xiang Yu inviting Liu Bang'? Just say it was the Feast at Hongmen,' wouldn't that be enough?"

"Well……"

"I really want to invite Ma Yanmin and his girlfriend to dinner."

Really?

Xu Jiajia carefully observed Chu Hong'an's expression. "You and Ma Yanmin really aren't boyfriend and girlfriend?"

"No, that's not true. Ma Yanmin and I... um... Ma Yanmin and I are practically childhood friends."

"Half?"

"Hmm. He was already eleven when I met him, so we're only half childhood friends. Okay, I'm going to go find them now." With that, Chu Hong'an turned to leave.

"Wait. Can I come with you? I don't want you to treat me to dinner, I just want to see what's going on."

Chu Hong'an: "..." She already said that she and Ma Yanmin were no longer boyfriend and girlfriend, so what's the point of watching the show?

"Let's go, let's go."

Before Chu Hong'an could finish feeling helpless, Xu Jiajia pulled her out the door.

Jing Shuyao was chatting with Yan Min's new friends when she suddenly noticed their expressions seemed to have changed. Jing Shuyao immediately looked at Yan Min. Meaning: Did I say something wrong?

Yan Min ruffled her hair. "Chu Hong'an, Xu Jiajia, where are you going?"

Jing Shuyao knew why Yan Min's friends' expressions had changed.

Jing Shuyao turned to look at Chu Hong'an and Xu Jiajia.

Chu Hong'an smiled at her. "Hello! My name is Chu Hong'an. My friend's name is Xu Jiajia. I heard that Ma Yanmin has a girlfriend, so I came here. You don't know... blah blah... blah blah... blah blah..."

Chu Hong'an recounted what happened during military training. "I practically wore myself out trying to explain, but they still wouldn't believe that Ma Yanmin and I were only half childhood friends. Now, I don't need to explain anymore. I came here firstly to tell you how frustrated I am, and secondly to invite you to dinner. You're my savior in college. Without you, I would have only been able to envy others in college. You understand what I mean?"

"I understand." This girl is really good at talking. "You're a Chinese literature major, right?"

"Yes. Did Ma Yanmin tell you about the history of this lake?"

"Does this lake have a history?"

"Of course...blah blah...blah blah...blah blah..."

Under Chu Hong'an's enthusiasm, the three girls quickly started chatting together.

An hour later, Chu Hong'an, holding Jing Shuyao's hand with her left hand and Xu Jiajia's hand with her right, looked at Yan Min and Yan Min's friends and said, "We're going to eat now. You guys go do whatever you want."

Yan Min: "..." If he remembered correctly, Shu Yao was his girlfriend, right? "Chu Hong'an!"

Chu Hong'an grabbed Jing Shuyao and Xu Jiajia and ran. "Hahahaha... Ma Yanmin, you're not as popular with Shushu as I am. Right, Shushu?"

As Jing Shuyao ran, she shouted, "Yes!"

Yan Min: "..." What is it? You heartless little devil!

Yan Min's friends: "Hahahaha... Yan Min, you've been outdone by Chu Hong'an."

Yan Min rubbed his forehead, stood up, and strode towards the direction Chu Hong'an, Jing Shuyao, and Xu Jiajia had left in. "Jing Shuyao! Chu Hong'an! You two, stop right there!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Chu Hong'an and Jing Shuyao ran while laughing.

Seeing that they wouldn't stop, Yan Min had no choice but to chase after them and grab them by the collar.

Chu Hong'an and Jing Shuyao didn't really intend to abandon Yan Min.

As Jing Shuyao struggled, she laughed and said, "Ma Yanmin, are you a college student or a brute?"

Chu Hong'an: "Right! Are you a college student or a brute?"

Yan Min grabbed them both by the collar and lifted them up. "To deal with you two little rascals, you have to use brute force. Are you going to run or not?"

Jing Shuyao: "Run!"

Seeing that she said "run," Chu Hong'an echoed, "Run!"

Yan Min smiled. "Then I'll just have to drag you guys to the cafeteria."

Jing Shuyao and Chu Hong'an: "..." How embarrassing is that?

Chu Hong'an: "I was wrong, I won't run away anymore."

Jing Shuyao kicked Yan Min with her toe before saying, "I'm not running anymore. Put me down."

When Yan Min saw that the two of them said they wouldn't run away anymore, he put them on the ground.

Jing Shuyao and Chu Hong'an exchanged a glance and then prepared to run away.

As a result, the two of them could only run one step before they couldn't run anymore.

Yan Min grabbed them both by the collar and stood behind them, chuckling, "Why aren't you two running away anymore?"

Jing Shuyao turned back and gave Yan Min a fawning smile. "Hehe... We don't want to run away, we just want to walk faster. We're hungry."

Chu Hong'an smiled at Yan Min. "Yes, yes, we just want to walk faster."

Yan Min released Chu Hong'an and used one hand to tap Jing Shuyao on the head. "If you two run away again, I'll drag you both to the cafeteria."

Chu Hong'an: "Hehe..."

Jing Shuyao: "Why did you only knock on me? Why didn't you knock on An'an?"

Yan Min tapped her again. "Is that even a question? Who are you to me?"

Jing Shuyao: "..." I forgot about that.

Yan Min tapped her again. "Are you still going to go along with her nonsense?"

"No." An'an didn't get knocked on when she ran, but she did. Wow...

"That's more like it." Yan Min ruffled her hair. "Let's go eat."

Jing Shuyao: "Oh."

Chu Hong'an: "Ma Yanmin, you are so cunning."

Yan Min smiled. "I'm stating the facts."

Chu Hong'an: "..." You're not stating the facts, you're using your status as my boyfriend to sow discord between me and Shushu! "Shushu, don't abandon me."

Jing Shuyao: "I didn't abandon you, I like you very much."

Yan Min: "Anyway, if you go along with her nonsense, I'll only knock on you, not her."

Jing Shuyao and Chu Hong'an: "..."

Xu Jiajia: "Pfft... Hahahaha..."

After finishing their meal, Chu Hongan and Xu Jiajia left.

Yan Min pinched Jing Shuyao's cheek. "Little rascal."

"Hehe... What are you planning to do this afternoon?"

"I'm going to the library to read. What about you?"

I want to go to the movies.

Actually, I also want to go to the movies.

"Then why did you say you were going to the library to read?"

"I'm afraid of failing my final exams. I want to sort out my studies first before thinking about playing. If I fail my final exams, my sister, brother, younger brother, and friends will definitely laugh at me."

Jing Shuyao: "..." If she fails her course, her relatives and friends will laugh at her. "I... I'll go to the library to study first."

After reaching an agreement, the two went to the library to study.

On the other side, after parting ways with Yan Min and Jing Shuyao, Chu Hong'an went to make a phone call.

Chu Yansong had just finished eating and was about to rest for a while when the phone on the table rang.

Chu Yansong reached out and took it. "Feed? Hello!"

He had barely finished speaking when Chu Hong'an's voice came through the microphone. "Big brother, Ma Yanmin has a girlfriend."

Chu Yansong: "..." Yan Min has a girlfriend?! Didn't Yan Min just start university?! "Do his parents know he has a girlfriend?"
