He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chu quickly shook her head and replied, "No, I've been waiting for you to come and order."

Zhou Yan nodded slightly, then without saying a word, reached for the menu placed to the side, handed it to Wei Yinuo, and said with a smile, "Yinuo, please order the dishes you like."

Wei Yinuo was somewhat flattered and quickly took the menu, while lowering her head and whispering "thank you" in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

Seeing Wei Yinuo's shy and timid appearance, Zhou Yan couldn't help but smile slightly, thinking to himself: I didn't expect this little girl to be shy in front of outsiders. She's a typical bully at home, but she's quite cute.

The smile in his eyes deepened: "Order whatever you like."

Wei Yinuo grinned: "Then I won't be polite, hehehe..."

Sitting across the table, Lin Chu watched the interaction between Zhou Yan and Wei Yinuo without saying a word.

He secretly wondered what the relationship was between Wei Yinuo and Zhou Yan.

"Zhou Yan, aren't you going to introduce this little sister?"

Lin Chu looked at Zhou Yan with a smile and asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a carefree smile. He said nonchalantly, "She's just a little girl. I brought her out to freeload a meal."

As he spoke, he gently patted Wei Yinuo's head.

Wei Yinuo immediately got angry when he slapped her like that.

"What are you doing?"

Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Is this little brat throwing a tantrum?"

Wei Yinuo pouted and silently rolled her eyes, deciding not to pay any attention to Zhou Yan, this lunatic.

She ordered the food and handed the menu to Lin Chu, only to meet her gloomy gaze.

Wei Yinuo's heart skipped a beat, thinking that the other party must have misunderstood.

Wei Yinuo quickly smiled and said, "Sister Lin Chu, please don't mind, I'm actually his niece."

Lin Chu was clearly stunned after hearing Wei Yinuo's words.

She stared wide-eyed at the stylishly dressed girl with pink hair for a long while, her eyes wide with disbelief.

It's hard to imagine that such an outspoken girl could be Zhou Yan's niece.

After a moment, Lin Chu came to her senses, and an embarrassed look instantly appeared on her face.

She gently raised her hand, nervously scratching her hair, a hint of apology in her eyes, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry, just now, I mistakenly thought..."

At this point, Lin Chu didn't know what to say next, and just gave an awkward smile.

Now, she regrets it so much that she wishes she could find a crack in the ground and hide there to avoid facing such an embarrassing situation again.

I wonder if Wei Yinuo will have a bad impression of me because of what I just said.

It was already difficult enough to pursue Zhou Yan, and now she's offended his eldest niece.

Lin Chu sighed silently, pursing her lips and remaining silent.

Seeing this, Wei Yinuo quickly waved her hand and smiled, "Sister Lin Chu, I didn't take it to heart, you don't need to apologize."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

She spoke in a deliberately casual tone, "Yinuo, I'm Zhou Yan's friend, and also an elder, so you don't need to call me 'sister'."

Wei Yinuo waved her hand: "It's okay. You're so young, it's really not appropriate to call you 'Auntie.' I'll just call you Sister Lin Chu."

Seeing this, Lin Chu didn't say anything more.

Throughout the meal, Wei Yinuo didn't say much, quietly eating her food.

Lin Chu no longer mocked or belittled Wei Yinuo as before. On the contrary, she acted very generously and even took the initiative to ask Wei Yinuo to add her as a WeChat friend.

Through their conversation, Wei Yinuo also learned that Lin Chu was actually Zhou Yan's college classmate, and had secretly liked Zhou Yan for many years.

Upon hearing this news, Wei Yinuo was filled with surprise. Her eyes widened and her mouth involuntarily opened into a big "O" shape, as if she could not believe what she had just heard.

He stared at Lin Chu in disbelief, stammering, "You, you actually like him?"

Lin Chu became even more shy after being asked that question. She lowered her head, nodded gently, and whispered, "Mmm."

Wei Yinuo couldn't help but click her tongue twice, shaking her head and giving Zhou Yan a disdainful look.

Zhou Yan, who was focused on eating, suddenly felt a strange gaze on him. He looked up and met Wei Yinuo's disdainful eyes.

He felt a wave of confusion wash over him, and frowned, asking in bewilderment, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Wei Yinuo felt a sudden panic. She hurriedly waved her hands and stammered, "No, I didn't see you. Don't flatter yourself!"

Zhou Yan looked at the flustered Wei Yinuo and couldn't help but laugh out loud, but still pretended to be serious and said, "Oh, are you shy?"

As he spoke, he reached out his right hand to pinch Wei Yinuo's rosy cheeks.

Wei Yinuo reacted quickly, dodging Zhou Yan's "clutches" by stepping back, and angrily shouted, "What are you doing? Can't you talk properly? Stop hitting me!"

Zhou Yan's hand froze in mid-air. He hesitated for a moment, then slowly withdrew it, a mocking smile on his lips. "Hey, little brat, how come your temper has grown so much as you've grown up? Have you forgotten what happened when you were little?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo was slightly taken aback, and then, as if she had suddenly remembered something, her cheeks instantly turned bright red, like ripe apples.

She lowered her head shyly and remained silent.

At this moment, Zhou Yan raised his hand again and gently rubbed Wei Yinuo's head, saying tenderly, "Your hair is dyed like this..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wei Yinuo, who had been quiet, suddenly jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, interrupting him angrily: "You're not allowed to comment on my hair! I love my hair color now!"

Zhou Yan was clearly not expected Wei Yinuo to have such a strong reaction, and was momentarily speechless.

He shook his head helplessly and explained, "Oh, I didn't mean to criticize you. I just think it looks really good. Kids like you should dye their hair this color. It makes you look so energetic."

Wei Yinuo was slightly taken aback, and a sense of surprise welled up in her heart.

Just now, she thought Zhou Yan would criticize her hair like an elder, just like her family.

For example, she was criticized for having a hair color that was inappropriate for a student.

After all, no one in her family approved of her; they all thought that as a student, she shouldn't try such a flamboyant hair color.

She had to go through a lot of effort and pleading before her parents reluctantly agreed.

However, to her utter surprise, Zhou Yan praised her hair without reservation, making Wei Yinuo blush instantly.
