"Which woman?" "The woman in the beige skirt!" Yang Su pointed.
Everyone followed the direction and saw a woman in a beige skirt not too far away.
Standing next to her was a tall, slightly plump man.
They were apparently having a conversation, and from tto time, the man reached out to touch the woman's shoulder.
The woman seemed uncomfortable, looking somewhat resistant.
"I remember now.
She's Yan Chenqing's friend.
We've met her before..." Nanxi said.
"Right, last twhen Li Weihuan and Nanxi were completely soaked, she gave them clothes...why is she here? And who's that man with her?” Zhang Mu asked.
"It looks like she's in strouble.
Should we go help?" Yang Su asked.
"I'll go check it out!" Bai Yuchuan got up.
"You're an injured man yourself.
Sit down!" Lan Qiqi pushed Bai Yuchuan back onto his seat and rolled up her sleeves.
"Remember to applaud later!" After that, she walked over.

Without thinking, Nanxi promptly followed her.
Zhang Mu said to the others, "You guys stay put, I'll go check with them." Before Nanxi and Lan Qiqi had closed the distance, the man had spotted them and gave them a quick glance.
The woman also noticed them and, while frowning, pushed the man away, seeming to ask him to leave.
Initially reluctant, the man left before the group drew closer.
The whole situation seemed a bit odd to Nanxi.
However, the woman was already on her way to greet them, apparently recognizing them.
"Hello, we..." "I remember you, you're Chenqing's friends! But I guess you don't know my name.
Letintroduce myself.
I'm Ding Ziyu.
Nice to meet you!" The woman extended her fair and beautiful hands, smiling gently at them, her demeanour warm and soothing.
Ding Ziyu is 27 this year, a chef by profession and she owns a restaurant, the very one Yan Chenqing had brought them to.
Being several years older and more experienced in the outside world than the rest of them, her manner, actions, and overall temperament are much more mature.
Regarding the man earlier, Ding Ziyu simply stated that he was a friend with whom she had a misunderstanding, nothing more.
Even though the group suspected that there was more to it, they didn't query further as they weren't close enough with her.
When inquiring about Yan Chenqing's absence from their gathering, Ding Ziyu casually asked a few questions. "Messing around with his girlfriend, so where would he find the tto accompany us?" shrugged Zhang Mu. Ding Ziyu's smile stiffened slightly, then she spoke lightly, "Given his popularity with women, it's not his fault." "Just say he's fickle!" Ding Ziyu gave a small laugh, "He just appears fickle on the outside.
He's a good person though." Everyone paused because of her comment.
For a moment, no one said a word.
As if realizing something, Ding Ziyu made her excuses and didn't linger.
After an exchange of informal pleasantries, she left on the pretext of other commitments.
"I'm glad Chenqing has friends like you.
This drink is for you!" Ding Ziyu raised a glass filled with red wine and was about to drain it.
Zhang Mu wanted to stop her but couldn't.
But, Ding Ziyu could indeed hold her liquor! After Ding Ziyu left, Zhang Mu looked at her retreating figure and sighed, "Another stunning beauty, both in terms of her alcohol tolerance and her good looks...
Chenqing is indeed a lucky guy! But, when it comes to such women, Sister Qiaoqiao still tops my list.
She's the irreplaceable goddess in my heart!" "Die, you pervert!" Lan Qiqi, without hesitation, gave him a good punch.
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't drool over you!" Zhang Mu laughed.
What he received from Lan Qiqi was a ruthless backhand, which made him cry out in pain! "Stop messing around, here comes the man of the hour!" Bai Yuchuan, observing their antics, shouted out and then waved towards the entrance, "Weihuan, over here!" Everyone immediately stopped talking and looked towards the entrance.
Sure enough, they saw Li Weihuan, dressed casually, walking over.
Nanxi also turned around- The moment their eyes met, it seemed as if his steps faltered for an instant, but then he just kept walking towards them with a smile on his face.
After exchanging high fives and greetings with everyone, upon seeing Nanxi, he merely offered her a faint smile. The hall was too noisy, so Lan Qiqi suggested that they go to a private room.
No one opposed, so all of them went together.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi Weihuan was leading the way.
The others deliberately slowed down, thus leaving Nanxi trailing behind Li Weihuan.
As for Yang Su and the others behind her, they got really emotional just looking at their backs.
They still remember, and can't forget, how proud and happy Li Weihyam was when he first introduced Nanxi, a well-behaved and beautiful girl, to them as his fiancee. He laughed, reveled in his joy, and showed off.
Once, when he was drunk, Li Weihuan confessed that he would love Nanxi his whole life and that he would work whole hard to earn a lot of money to marry her. There was no one else for him in this world but Nanxi.
Two years ago, when leaving for the United States, Li Weihuan held m Nanxi's hand tightly as if he wanted to merge her body with his and take her with him. He told Nanxi to wait for him, she had to wait for him! His head rested on her shoulder, and his eyes were misty.
But he stubbornly held back his tears! A grown man crying over leaving his girlfriend would be too disgraceful! But, the moment he turned to leave, he did cry.
He clenched his fist and yelled once more, "Wait for me!" He didn't turn back because he would never let anyone see his tears, especially Nanxi! Nanxi really did wait for him.
She watched him obediently from afar, while people around her observed her patiently abiding by her promise.
They wished her well, sympathized with her, and anticipated that she and Li Weihuan would end up together.
But in the end, they couldn't.
In Yang Su and Lan Qiqi's view, Nanxi, who had lost her family and everything else, needed a man who could give her a hand stability.
Someone like, Lu Yinchu.
That's the kind of man Nanxi needs, a mature man, one who can shelter her from the storm and tolerate all her flaws! Li Weihuan, he isn't that kind of man!
