Mu Xiaoxiao was amused and giggled, “Since when did you start learning to tell jokes?”
“Uh, recently,” Lu Yichen answered seriously.
Unable to control herself any longer, Han Qiqing finally lifted her head. She beamed as she waved at Lu Yichen. “Hello! I didn’t think I’d see you here; it really is a coincidence!”
“It’s quite the coincidence,” Lu Yichen said, nodding. His dark brown eyes, however, held a hint of a smile.
Han Qiqing felt the mysterious feeling of having been exposed.
Could it be that she had already been spotted by him the previous times she had come?
And with her mentioning how coincidental it was, wasn’t it…
Han Qiqing felt embarrassed to death and lowered her head, not daring to look at Lu Yichen.
Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly changed the subject to help her good friend out. She smiled as she said to Lu Yichen, “What’s good to drink here? Recommend something for us.”
Lu Yichen said as he handed the menu to her, “Um, just look here and see what you’d like to drink; it’s my treat for cheering for me at my competition.”
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled. “We already knew that you were going to win, but if you treat us, we won’t dare to come here again.”
Just then, a boy wearing the same uniform as Lu Yichen rushed over and said urgently in his ear, “Your phone’s been ringing. I think there might be some emergency; you should pick it up.”
Lu Yichen frowned a little upon hearing this. “Okay, thanks.” He nodded.
He turned to Mu Xiaoxiao to speak.
Mu Xiaoxiao waved him away, saying, “Hurry up and take the call. You don’t have to serve us anymore; we’re friends anyway.”
Lu Yichen nodded and hurried away.
“What happened?” Han Qiqing only then lifted her head and asked, looking at Mu Xiaoxiao.
Mu Xiaoxiao teased her, saying, “So the shy snail finally decides to poke her head out, huh?”
“What are you talking about!” Embarrassed, Han Qiqing gave Mu Xiaoxiao a light slap on the shoulder. “What happened? Why did he have to hurry off so quickly?” she interrogated.
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I don’t know. Apparently, his phone has been ringing incessantly.”
Han Qiqing cupped her chin with her hand, her gaze fixated in the direction where Lu Yichen had gone. “Did you see that? He looked so handsome in his uniform!” she said dreamily.
She even giggled after she said that. There was certainly no doubt of her infatuation.
Mu Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Who was this infatuated idiot?
She didn’t know her!
Mu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. Just then, she saw Lu Yichen rush out from the shop, his expression frantic.
“Looks like something happened,” she said as she hurriedly stood up to follow.
“Hey! Wait for me!”
When the two of them emerged from the shop, they saw Lu Yichen trying to wave down a taxi. However, because it was the weekend in a bustling business district, it was difficult to get one.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked worriedly at Lu Yichen’s pale face and immediately understood that something really bad had happened.
Pulling Han Qiqing, she rushed over and said to Lu Yichen, “Where are you headed? We have a ride; we can send you over!”
At Mu Xiaoxiao’s words, Han Qiqing hurriedly waved at her chauffeur, signaling him to drive over quickly.
Lu Yichen met Mu Xiaoxiao’s eyes. His deep voice rumbled, “Thank you.”
Mu Xiaoxiao noticed his red-rimmed eyes and choked voice.
She didn’t dare to ask what had happened.
The car drove over in a moment, and the three of them got into the car.
Before she could ask where they were headed to, Lu Yichen blurted anxiously, “To the city hospital!”
