Dragon Hidden in the Sky

A woman was standing at the entrance!

She was tall, probably around 1.7 meters, wearing a floral dress, her hair tied in a ponytail, revealing her smooth forehead and fair legs. Her appearance was stunning; she wore no makeup, but her skin was flawless.

A smile played on her lips, and her eyes narrowed slightly with the smile, like crescent moons.

"Hey!" Wu Jin smiled slightly when he saw her and said, "Beautiful Yang, you're getting more and more beautiful!"

Yes, the person who came was Yang Xiaoxiao!

When Ye Qing looked over, there was a hint of regret in his expression.

He noticed that Yang Xiaoxiao had hardly changed since high school; she still wore her hair in a ponytail. And she still did!

The only change was that her chest, which was originally very flat, had now swelled up quite a bit. Although it wasn't huge, it was still a considerable size compared to her former flat chest.

Upon hearing Wu Jin's words, Yang Xiaoxiao pouted and said, "Young Master Wu, please don't try to make fun of me!"

Then her gaze swept around and soon landed on Ye Qing.

The two locked eyes for a moment, and Ye Qing noticed a hint of resentment in Yang Xiaoxiao's eyes.

However, this resentment quickly disappeared, and she walked straight towards Ye Qing.

Not far away, Zhuo Fan's expression was somewhat complicated!

He liked Yang Xiaoxiao, and he liked her for many years.

Even though he is now considered successful in his career, Yang Xiaoxiao still doesn't give him a second glance.

Now that Ye Qing has appeared, she still walked towards Ye Qing immediately at this gathering.

Wu Jin, on the other hand, looked on as if he were watching a good show.

Ye Qing suddenly felt uneasy and couldn't help but glance at Lin Qianyu beside him. Lin Qianyu's expression had returned to its usual coldness, leaving Ye Qing completely unable to figure out what she was thinking.

Before long, Yang Xiaoxiao arrived in front of Ye Qing. She extended her slender hand to Ye Qing, her fair arm facing him, and said with a smile in her eyes, "It's been eight years, my high school deskmate!"

"Uh!" Ye Qing coughed lightly.

Yang Xiaoxiao seemed to be just greeting him normally. He nodded, then reached out and shook hands with Yang Xiaoxiao, saying, "Yes, it's been a long time!"

Her hands were ice-cold and very smooth!

After a brief touch, she withdrew her hand and said to Lin Qianyu beside her, "You must be Ye Qing's girlfriend, Lin Qianyu. Zhuo Fan told me that Ye Qing is incredibly lucky to have found you!"

"Hello!" Lin Qianyu smiled and extended her hand, saying, "I've often heard Ye Qing mention you, saying that his high school deskmate was very beautiful. Now, seeing you in person is much better than just hearing about you!"

"Compared to you, I'm still far behind!" Yang Xiaoxiao said.

After saying that, she pulled back and said, "Why is everyone so quiet? Let's continue chatting!"

"Ahem!" Wu Jin coughed lightly and quickly walked over, saying, "Beautiful Yang, are you still single? Why don't you give me a chance!"

"Get lost!" Yang Xiaoxiao said, "Everyone knows you're a scumbag!"

The whole process was incredibly smooth, and Ye Qing felt a little relieved.

He couldn't quite explain the feeling. He and Lin Qianyu were in a marriage of convenience, and he had absolutely no relationship with Yang Xiaoxiao, but... for a moment just now, he had a chilling feeling.

"You rejected me, it hurts me so much!" Wu Jin said. "Later I'm going to devour you to soothe my wounded heart!"

"Eat whatever you want, I won't care if you get too full!" Yang Xiaoxiao said.

Hearing this conversation, Ye Qing was also slightly surprised. Without a doubt, this resort was owned by Yang Xiaoxiao.

Before long, the last person arrived. The last person was named Chen Yong, a seemingly honest and unassuming man. After arriving, he was teased by Wang Shiran and the others.

Ye Qing had some impression of him, but wasn't very familiar with him!

However, unlike Ye Qing, when he was being teased, he just gave a wry laugh and didn't say anything.

Once everyone had arrived, Yang Xiaoxiao instructed the restaurant staff to start serving the dishes.

The rest of the meal went fairly smoothly. Everyone chatted about their high school days, and Ye Qing occasionally joined in. The meal wasn't as awkward as I had imagined!

After dinner, Wu Jin said, "Let's go to a bar in Jiangcheng for the second round!"

Chen Yong smiled sheepishly and said, "I won't go. I have to go back to work later!"

Ye Qing quickly added, "I have things to do this afternoon, so I won't participate in the second round!"

Although the whole process was normal, he still felt uncomfortable. Yang Xiaoxiao would occasionally glance at him, her eyes filled with a hint of resentment.

"Alright then!" Wu Jin said, "Since we've added each other on WeChat, I'll come find you next time. The rest of us can go!"

"I'm fine!" Wang Shiran said...

Yang Xiaoxiao said, "I have some customers to meet at my shop this afternoon, and they've all made reservations, so I won't be going. But if they want to have dinner tonight, I can squeeze out some time!"

"No problem, I'll call you when the time comes!" Wu Jin said.

Then the group walked towards the door.

Just as Ye Qing and Lin Qianyu were about to get up, Yang Xiaoxiao said, "Ye Qing..."

"Hmm?" Ye Qing looked over at Yang Xiaoxiao.

Yang Xiaoxiao rummaged in his bag for a while and soon found a box. He handed it to Ye Qing and said, "This was originally a graduation gift I prepared for you when you graduated from high school, but I didn't have a chance to give it to you then. It's not too late to give it to you this time!"

"Uh!" Ye Qing glanced guiltily at Lin Qianyu beside her.

Lin Qianyu smiled and said, "Thank you!"

Ye Qing took the box, and Yang Xiaoxiao then said, "Then I won't see you off. I have to go to the store to get busy."

“Okay!” Ye Qing said.

Ye Qing finally breathed a slight sigh of relief after Yang Xiaoxiao left.

"You must be overjoyed!" Lin Qianyu said, "It's a gift from my old flame."

"Uh!" Ye Qing looked at Lin Qianyu and said, "I really have absolutely no relation to her!"

“I observed her for a while, and I felt like the way she looked at you was almost drooling. I guess she still likes you!” Lin Qianyu said.

"Stop it, it's been eight years. That was just teenage infatuation. What's there to like?" Lin Qianyu said, handing the wooden box to Ye Qing. "Take a look and see what gift I gave you!"

In fact, Ye Qing was also somewhat curious.

He opened the wooden box, inside which was a jade plaque with some very intricate and exquisite carvings.

The moment Ye Qing saw the jade tablet, he was stunned and exclaimed, "A life-or-death token! How is this possible!"
