Qin Yuhuan hung up the phone while Ziyi was complaining angrily.

Ziyi's temper is really interesting as she is like a little cannon and explodes at the slightest provocation.

While Qin Yuhuan was working on the night scene, Ziyi calculated the time and arrived at the restaurant where she had an appointment with Shu Baizhu.

Shu Baizhu is also a well-known figure. He is almost always fully armed when he goes out, and a private box is indispensable. When she arrived, Shu Baizhu had not arrived yet, so Ziyi ordered tea and food according to Shu Baizhu's preferences.

"You are still the same as before, always like to come early." Shu Baizhu was not surprised to see Ziyi the moment he opened the door.

During their dates, Ziyi would always arrive ten minutes or even half an hour early to check out the environment.

"It's a habit. If this place doesn't live up to its reputation, we can evacuate in advance and find another place."

Ziyi always likes to make multiple preparations. If this restaurant doesn't work out, she has other alternative restaurants as long as it doesn't delay her plans.

Shu Baizhu sat down, and Ziyi took her handbag and hung it on the goose storage rack beside her. When she turned around, she heard Shu Baizhu ask inexplicably, "Is it hard to always squeeze out time in advance?"

"Fortunately."

What Ziyi didn't say was that in the past, she would only arrive early when she wanted to meet Shu Baizhu, otherwise... with her family background, there was almost no one in her social circle who needed her to "arrive early".

"You never seem to take credit for this."

When the waiter came in with the tablet, Shu Baizhu took a look at the menu, ordered a few dishes, and ordered some other dishes.

After the waiter left, Ziyi spoke, "In the past, I thought it was a small matter and not worth mentioning. Now, there is no need to mention it, right? I originally wanted to come on time, but it's hard to correct habits in a short time, so you don't have to take it to heart, and don't misunderstand me."

These few words were so straightforward that Shu Baizhu was dazed.

"Why are you……"

Before coming here, I had made up my mind to let it go, but I left with a nonchalant attitude. The resentment that had been buried deep in my heart for a long time suddenly grew wildly like bamboo shoots watered by spring rain.

The thumb pressed hard on the index finger, and the pink nail turned white briefly due to the force, but was soon filled with pink blood color again.

"Xiaozi, you...won't you ask me?"

After all, Shu Baizhu was used to being passive, so after trying for a long time, he could only squeeze out this sentence.

"What did I ask you?" Ziyi didn't get what Shu Baizhu wanted her to ask, "It's about...your family situation. Is Shu Baiqi okay?"

Shu Baizhu: ...

"I don't know if he's okay," she rubbed her brows, "If my parents want to save him, they'll take out money, and that's all I have, Xiaozi, I won't ask you to borrow money."

The current stalemate is that parents can come up with money, but they are reluctant to do so. They always feel that there is still a way they can squeeze the children.

To put it bluntly, Ziyi's momentary coldness and rejection was just a temper tantrum towards Shu Baizhu. As long as she softened her temper and said a few nice words, Ziyi would still take care of it.

The same attitude was adopted towards Shu Baizhen's problem. No matter whether he studied or worked, Shu's parents were undoubtedly betting on Shu Baizhu's conscience.

Posture: ...

"It doesn't really matter if you ask me to borrow money, Shu Baizhu. After all, we've known each other for so many years. I'm not afraid that you'll default on the debt and run away, nor will I belittle you or have a negative impression of you just because you ask me for help."

Shu Baizhu sighed, "Xiaozi, this is not what I want to say. I don't want to talk about my family affairs today, but think about it, you and I, we can't get away from talking about my family affairs."

Ziyi was confused by Shu Baizhu.

"Actually, I chatted with Qin Yuhuan," Shu Baizhu suddenly brought up the name of a third person besides the two of them.

The three words "Qin Yuhuan" made Ziyi subconsciously curl the corners of her lips.

"She said I should talk to you." Qin Yuhuan always spoke objectively and reasonably. Even if Shu Baizhu refused at the time, she would always be convinced after thinking about it. "Ziyi, about our relationship."

Ziyi was silent, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should be sad that "Qin Yuhuan actually still wanted her to reconcile with Shu Baizhu" or was surprised that Shu Baizhu "was talking to her about feelings for the first time".

The waiter began to serve the dishes to the private room.

She found that the menu this time was different from what she ordered.

When Shu Baizhu went out to eat with her, she hardly bothered to order food, and their eating habits were actually not very similar.

For example, she loves spicy food, but Shu Baizhu prefers lighter food. When she was in Licheng, she didn't even add chili to her noodles. Every time Ziyi ordered dishes, she would order according to Shu Baizhu's preferences, and there was not a single chili to be seen on the table.

Even when it comes to tea, Ziyi likes to drink green tea, while Shu Baizhu likes to drink scented tea.

But the dishes served this time were almost all Ziyi's favorites, with only a few light dishes.

"Xiao Zi, I know you treat me very well," Shu Baizhu used a serving chopstick to pick up a piece of meat from the head of the chopped pepper fish and gave it to Ziyi. "You always go along with me on everything. Actually... it's not your problem. Sorry."

"I don't know."

Although she had decided not to look back, when Shu Baizhu said "It's not your problem", Ziyi's eyes still swelled, not only for herself in this life, but also for...

From the previous life.

"I don't understand, Shu Baizhu, I once thought you liked me too."

"Yes, Xiaozi." Shu Baizhu stared into Ziyi's eyes, and her eyes seemed to tremble. "At the beginning, I liked you."

"At the beginning?" Ziyi caught the key point, "At the beginning of what?"

"In the first year of high school, when we were innocent classmates from the next class, Xiaozi." Shu Baizhu avoided Ziyi's gaze and sighed silently. The bitterness in her heart surged like a wave, and her throat was tight in pain. "Remember that time when I went to buy powder for you? That day, all I could think about was, Xiaozi, please don't ignore me. I hope Xiaozi won't be angry with me. In the future, I will give priority to you in my time."

"I secretly went to your class to look at your wish list. Among the pile of wishes filled with your favorite universities, I recognized your handwriting and saw that you wrote Jin University. So even though I knew that Jin City didn't have a top art school, I still applied here."

Ziyi stood up in disbelief, and the chair slid on the ground with a harsh sound.

"why?"

She stared at Shu Baizhu, her hands hanging down at her sides clenched into fists, "Why are you telling me this? Why didn't you tell me this before? Why are you being so cold to me?"

Ziyi has too many problems.

Compared to Shu Baizhu on the opposite side, her resentment and resentment have been accumulated for two whole lifetimes. It’s okay that Shu Baizhu didn’t like her from beginning to end, but why?

Why did he suddenly tell her that he actually liked her?
