If you're going on a blind date, do it properly, don't confiscate my property!

Originally, Xu Lang's male best friend was a bit provocative, but after Xu Lang talked a bunch of nonsense, even he himself was moved.

The way he looked at Xu Lang softened considerably.

The two women's attitude and words toward Xu Lang were tinged with anticipation, but the male best friend's eyes also held a hint of cold sneer, as if he were looking at a "big traitor."

Xu Lang pondered for a moment, and then the system's mechanical yet pleasant voice sounded, announcing the reward.

He made a point of checking the changes inside his body, especially the position of his two kidneys, but there didn't seem to be any significant changes.

When his gaze fell on Liang Xiuhua, he seemed to think she was even prettier than before.

Could this be the effect of the new kidney?

Do all women I see seem to have delicate features?

Excessive dopamine secretion?

However, she's only a little prettier than before; it's not to the point of being uncontrollable.

"Ms. Liang, I'd like to ask, has your male best friend ever confessed his feelings to you?"

Upon hearing this!

The air froze instantly.

The expectant expressions on their faces froze instantly, much like a webpage that failed to load, leaving them stunned on the spot, their eyes flickering, as if their underwear had been stripped off on the spot.

Liang Xiuhua's eyes flickered, and she looked as guilty as a student caught cheating on a test; her voice even weakened slightly.

"Why...why are you suddenly asking this?"

Xu Lang's lips curled into a smile!

Haha, this is what they call a male best friend!

He continued with the probing question: "How many times have you confessed your feelings?"

Even her male best friend didn't answer, which made her feel awkward, like her little secret had been exposed.

Liang Xiuhua took a deep breath, calmed herself down a bit, looked up at Xu Lang, and said very seriously:

He confessed his feelings to me, but I rejected him each time.

She linked arms with her male best friend, seemingly having overcome her earlier embarrassment and tension, and displaying a composed demeanor.

"Yunze later realized that we were better suited to be best friends. As best friends, our friendship could last much longer. I've had four boyfriends, but he's always been my best friend, and that's the best proof of that!"

I confessed my feelings, and they rejected me.

More suitable as best friends

Suitable for your mom to buy in bulk —

Xu Lang inwardly sneered, but outwardly he didn't react, and continued to press for answers:

"You...slept in the same bed, didn't you?"

"You..." Liang Xiuhua's expression changed drastically, her eyes instantly turning icy, carrying a sharp edge of offense:

"Even if we sleep in the same bed, nothing will happen. We're not as dirty as you think..."

"Hehe—" Xu Lang's cold laughter was no longer concealed, and he stood up, but was pressed down by a hand.

A slender yet strong hand gently pressed down on his shoulder.

Xu Lang was a little surprised and turned around to see that it was his roommate Zhang Yuejiao.

She wore a brown cloak, her makeup was exquisite, her lips were painted with dark red lipstick, and the ends of her long hair were tied up in big waves and draped over her shoulders.

She exudes a queenly and domineering aura, unconsciously projecting an aura that gives off a sense of pressure, as if she were a high-ranking leader.

Her eyes held a certain arrogance and indifference as she stared at Liang Xiuhua and her male best friend like a hawk.

"Little Langlang, I haven't even arrived yet, and you're already leaving?" Her voice softened, and when her gaze shifted from the two people opposite her to Xu Lang, it became gentle. Her slender, fair hand gestured for Xu Lang to sit inside.

Xu Lang was surprised by her arrival, but her demeanor clearly indicated that she was there to lend a hand.

The name "Little Rascal" sounds a bit...uncomfortable!

But I also wanted to see her performance, so I moved into a booth.

Zhang Yuejiao sat down gracefully, her face still aloof, and gave the two people opposite her a professional smile:

"Hello, you two, I'm Xiaolanglang's female friend!"

His gaze swept over Liang Xiuhua like a radar:

"This must be Xiaolanglang's blind date, right? I just got off work and rushed over."

"As my good brother, I have to help him vet the best candidates, Miss Liang. You don't mind, do you?"

Liang Xiuhua was a little stunned!

The person in front of me has a powerful aura and exquisite makeup. Just by standing here, there is an invisible sense of pressure, like a student facing a teacher or a subordinate facing a senior leader.

Listen to her—isn't that my word?

She turned to look at Xu Lang, her gaze questioning, only to see Xu Lang nod. She was a little taken aback, but quickly realized what he meant.

"Sister, are you Xu Lang's sister?"

Zhang Yuejiao took Xu Lang's arm, and even picked up the food Xu Lang had just eaten, taking a couple of bites:

"Yes, we are inseparable best buddies. When I encounter something wrong, I will confide in him, and when I encounter something happy, I will share it with him. If you want to date my little rascal, then you have to accept the existence of my female buddy."

"By the way, we often travel when we have time, but don't worry, I pay for all the hotels."

"Miss Liang, you don't mind, do you?"

Liang Xiuhua was speechless for a moment and had no words to reply.

She felt as if she had swallowed a fly; she couldn't accept it.

"I mind!" Liang Xiuhua suddenly raised her voice, staring at Xu Lang and the other person, and said:

"I will never allow my boyfriend to have female friends. It's either her or me. Xu Lang, you choose!"

Before Xu Lang could speak, Zhang Yuejiao interrupted:

"You're only allowed to have male best friends, but not female brothers? Ms. Liang, your double standards are even more sophisticated than those of the Japanese!"

"You..." Liang Xiuhua stood up, pointing at the two of them:

"Xu Lang, you...you're just here to disgust me, aren't you?"

"Let's go!"

She broke down on the spot and dragged her male best friend away!

The male best friend remained silent because he understood best the significance of the "female brother's" existence.

Accompanying you to eat, drink, play, and have sex—

Zhang Yuejiao maintained her elegant and aloof demeanor throughout, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the two people who were angrily fleeing.

Xu Lang had been silently watching all of this from the sidelines!

Although Zhang Yuejiao disrupted his escape plan, she also humiliated him, which seemed to have a better effect.

Only after the two men disappeared around the corner did she turn to look at Xu Lang:

"Little rascal, let me help you out, do you want to...?"

"Stop!" Xu Lang waved his hand, interrupting her.

"Don't call me that, it makes me sick."

"Also, your sudden intervention disrupted my plans. Don't try to use this to ask me for any help. All I can say is thank you."

Zhang Yuejiao placed her chopsticks upside down on the bowl, looking disgusted.

"Xu Lang, I've been watching you guys for a long time. I admire your patience. I thought you would keep putting up with it, but thankfully you finally started to fight back."

"But I think your counterattack wasn't strong enough. It only exposed the so-called male best friend's true nature as a friend with benefits, which wasn't enough to make them feel ashamed."

"I stepped in to help you vent your anger, and after all that hard work and eating your leftovers, all I get is a thank you?"

"Or what? You want me to sell myself, pretend to be your boyfriend, and go home with you for the New Year?" Xu Lang directly exposed her intentions.

Xu Lang understood people like her quite well; they wouldn't do anything without a reason, and they always put profit first.

If she weren't looking to gain something for herself, she wouldn't be here, much less act so righteously.

And this is the only thing that could make her put so much effort into it.

I declined her dinner invitation at noon, but I never expected that she would follow me here.

This woman went to great lengths to achieve her goal.

But Xu Lang wasn't someone who could be swayed by small favors.

"Sister Yue, you interrupted my plan. Even without your appearance, I could have gotten away, and I wouldn't have had to pay for this meal."

Xu Lang completely ignored her and even shifted the blame onto her:

"You made me waste my meal money, tell me, how are you going to resolve this?"

Zhang Yuejiao was slightly taken aback, staring at him:

"So you were planning to skip out on the bill?"
