When a kind laughter came from afar, the boy finally realized what he had just said, and his face turned red.
He stuttered and wanted to explain, but a cold voice said, "No need."
Ning Meng turned her head and saw Huo Beichen walking toward her.
This was an old street, and it was late at night, so it was a little dark.
But as soon as he appeared, the surroundings seemed to be brighter. Even the streetlights above them were brighter than before.
Huo Beichen walked toward her with his long legs and put his hand on her shoulder. He took a step back and put himself between Ning Meng and the boy. He then looked at the boy who was in his puberty. "Your classmate is waiting for you."
Huo Beichen's face was cold, and he had the maturity of a man.
When the boy saw him, he was so scared that he turned around and ran away.
After the group of students disappeared into the crowd, Huo Beichen turned to look at Ning Meng and said in a depressed tone, "You're still so popular."
Ning Meng was confused.
She widened her eyes and looked at Huo Beichen in confusion. "Huh?"
The girl raised her eyebrows and had a natural charm, but her eyes were as clear as glass, reflecting the faint light from the streetlights.
Seeing her like this, Huo Beichen rubbed her head with his big hand. He felt powerless, as though he had accumulated all his strength but had no way to use it.
He then turned around and walked in front.
Ning Meng was speechless.
What do you mean forget it?
Why can't this man say it clearly?
She curled her lips and looked back at the high school. Under the dark sky, the bright moonlight shone on the signboard. The words "Hai City No.1 High School" had an inexplicable sense of familiarity and mystery.
Ning Meng panicked and quickly looked away. Only then did she see Huo Beichen standing in front of her, quietly waiting for her to go over.
Ning Meng quickly walked to his side.
It was rush hour after school. Some students took the bus home while others took a walk back. The neighborhood was bustling with noise and excitement.
There were small vendors who had prepared snacks and stopped by the roadside. Occasionally, the students who passed by could not resist the temptation of the aroma and would buy a chicken chop or stinky tofu …
Ning Meng felt even hungrier when she smelled the aroma. She quickened her pace and followed him through a busy old alley. After a few turns, they arrived in front of a pickled vegetable fish restaurant.
Ning Meng raised her head and looked at this inconspicuous shop.
Everything inside could be seen at a glance.
The ten or so tables were almost full at the moment, and only two or three were free.
The shop was still clean, but a shop without a signboard was too niche.
Ning Meng sighed. "As a foodie, I've slowly come to understand one thing. The more inconspicuous a restaurant is, the more delicious the food they make. On the other hand, you can just take a look at those resplendent, luxurious French and Italian restaurants with all kinds of gimmicks … "
She paused for a while, and just when Huo Beichen was attracted to her, thinking that she was going to say something about "living a simple life", Ning Meng chuckled. "I can't afford it anyway."
"…"
He wasn't surprised at all that this rich young lady would say that she couldn't afford it. He strode into the restaurant.
Ning Meng followed him into the shop. As soon as she entered the shop, she saw the lady boss walking towards her in surprise. "Beichen, why are you here?"
