Because of this, more than half of the food on the table was left over. In fact, there were a few dishes that the three of them didn't even touch.

After all, they were eating public food, and Zhou Ying couldn't bear to see such a large table of food go to waste, so she asked the waiter for a few lunch boxes and put the untouched dishes in them.

Then, she handed the bag containing the lunch box to Xiao Yang: "Comrade Yang, take these back and eat them."

Xiao Yang quickly refused. It was agreed that he would treat everyone this time, but he ended up taking all the dishes back. How insincere was that?

Zhou Ying grinned immediately: "The food in our cafeteria is very good. We have meat for every meal, and it's cheap, so you should take it back."

Unable to refuse no matter what, Xiao Yang finally nodded. With a soft sigh, he took the other set of clothes he had bought earlier and slowly walked to the front of the counter. "Comrade, how much is our meal?"

The young waiter pointed at Lin Caiwei and said with a smile, "That comrade has already paid the bill."

Xiao Yang suddenly felt awkward. After a long pause, he asked sheepishly, "How much does this meal cost, and how much does the ticket cost?"

"Fifteen dollars, and seven more tickets. Young man, it seems that girl is interested in you. You must seize the opportunity!"

Xiao Yang laughed dryly twice, but did not explain the relationship between the two people.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed - he had agreed to treat the other party, but now he couldn't come up with enough money to pay the other party back.

This feeling is really frustrating.

Just then, Lin Caiwei came over carrying a plastic bag full of lunch boxes.

Xiao Yang blushed and said, "I'm sorry for the expense you guys spent today. When you have time, I'll treat you to another meal!"

Before Lin Caiwei could even open her mouth, Zhou Ying said with a smile, "The day after tomorrow, Captain Lin and I will be resting, and we can come out for dinner then!"

Xiao Yang then revealed a faint smile: "Okay, we'll meet here at 12 noon the day after tomorrow. Remember to come, both of you!"

Lin Caiwei hummed, and Zhou Ying nodded with a smile.

After leaving the hotel, the group went their separate ways.

After boarding the bus, Xiao Yang found a window seat and sat down. Bored, he glanced out the window and noticed that Lin Caiwei and Zhou Ying were both silently watching him from a distance. They didn't turn around and leave until the bus slowly started moving.

At this time, Zhou Ying couldn't bear it anymore. She took Lin Caiwei's arm and said, "Captain Lin, can't you explain what's going on?"

Lin Caiwei's pretty face flushed slightly, and she glared at Zhou Ying fiercely: "What do I have to explain? Instead, you say everything. Do you know what my family will think of me if they find out about those things?"

Zhou Ying was stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that her previous words did have some suspicion of provoking other people's family relationships.

Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately apologized to Lin Caiwei: "It's my fault, I overlooked this point. I'm sorry, Captain Lin—"

As she spoke, she smiled. "But I'm doing this for your own good. Otherwise, how would Comrade Yang know your specific situation?"

In an instant, Lin Caiwei's face turned even redder. But her tone remained as stern as ever: "You don't need to worry about my affairs. More importantly, I don't have any plans to date for the time being."

Zhou Ying was suddenly confused.

Glancing awkwardly at Lin Caiwei, she felt she was becoming increasingly confused about this guy. His attitude towards Comrade Yang was clearly different from everyone else's. So why was he now saying he had no plans to date?

Could it be that this was all her own illusion? It wasn't until the scene of Xiao Yang's trickery appeared before her eyes that her heart skipped a beat: "Captain Lin, do you think Comrade Yang is... a spy?"

This wasn't to say Zhou Ying had a unique imagination, but rather that children of high-ranking officials like Lin Caiwei had always been a key target for infiltration by spies. Furthermore, the question Xiao Yang had raised at the time was indeed somewhat abrupt.

However, before she could finish her words, Lin Caiwei hit her hard: "What are you thinking about all day? If he is a spy, how could I possibly accept his invitation to dinner?"

Chen Xuemei had just finished her work in class and had not had time to drink a sip of water when she received a call from home saying that Xiao Yang was missing.

Her heart suddenly rose to her throat again, and for this reason, she, who had always been frugal, took a taxi.

However, as soon as she got off the car, she saw Xiao Yang, who seemed like a completely different person: "Hey, Yangyang—you're back?"

Xiao Yang immediately revealed a bright smile and took the bag from Chen Xuemei's hand. "How did you resolve the issue in your class?"

After walking up and gently patting Xiao Yang's shoulder to confirm that it wasn't an illusion, Chen Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, I was so scared. I just got a call from Caiyu saying you're missing and haven't come home yet. I was so worried. If anything happened to you, how would I explain it to your mother?"

Xiao Yang said a little embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry for making you worry."

Chen Xuemei shook her head and gently took Xiao Yang's arm: "I'm glad you're back, let's go in!"

At this time, Lin Caiyu and Ye Tian had just walked out of the room and were about to look for Xiao Yang.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Ye Tian and Xiao Yang made eye contact.

His heart skipped a beat. But he didn't hesitate. He rushed to Xiao Yang and grabbed his hand. "Yangyang, where have you been? After getting rid of those two hooligans, I went to the mall to find security. I didn't expect that when I returned to the alley with security, I didn't see you! This really worried me. I couldn't find you anywhere, so I had to rush back to inform your family."

Then, he asked with a worried look on his face, "Those two thugs didn't do anything to you, did they?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the plastic bag in Xiao Yang's hand. It had the words "State-owned Restaurant" and a series of phone numbers printed on it.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "So you went to the state-owned restaurant to eat. Why didn't I tell my family after you got out of this predicament? Do you know how worried my second sister and I were?"

Chen Xuemei and Lin Caiyu only knew that Xiao Yang and Ye Tian were kidnapped by two gangsters. Then, Ye Tian escaped while the two gangsters were not paying attention. When he brought reinforcements from the mall, Xiao Yang had disappeared.

At first, the two women were worried that Xiao Yang would suffer at the hands of the two thugs.

But when Ye Tian finished his last sentence, the two people's expressions couldn't help but change slightly.
