The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 18 Meet at Changting

"Beautiful...Xia Yu, can you leave me your WeChat?" Zhou Hai sat next to Xia Yu with a smile on his face, holding his mobile phone in both hands and opening his WeChat QR code.

"Call me Xia Yu..." Xia Yu smiled awkwardly and said to Zhou Hai.

She knew she was beautiful, but she was embarrassed to keep saying it!

"Okay, okay, Xia Yu. Then... let's add each other as friends?" Zhou Hai grinned innocently and waved his phone in front of Xia Yu.

"Okay..." Xia Yu took out her mobile phone and was about to open WeChat, but the phone was suddenly snatched away by Luo Fan.

"You can't just add other people on WeChat, don't you know?" Luo Fan snatched Xia Yu's phone and while saying this, he set the setting to prohibit anyone from adding her as a friend.

Luo Fan was really scared by such a violent reaction.

"What are you doing? Didn't you say she is not your partner? Why do you care so much about her?" Zhou Hai looked at Luo Fan unhappily and prepared to snatch Xia Yu's phone back.

"That's right, God of Land... Grandpa said that we can't add WeChat friends casually..." Xia Yu remembered what the God of Land said and decided not to add Zhou Hai's WeChat.

Zhou Hai's hand that was grabbing the phone froze in mid-air, and he suddenly turned back to look at Xia Yu: "What?"

Luo Fan was overjoyed when he heard this, but Xia Yu changed the subject the next second and said, "Then I'll give you my phone number, is that okay?"

"...Absolutely!" Zhou Hai was overjoyed. He immediately went to Xia Yu with his mobile phone and excitedly saved every number Xia Yu read out.

Luo Fan was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He looked at Xia Yu in disbelief, returned her phone to her angrily, and said, "Didn't your grandfather tell you that you can't give your phone number to others casually?"

As soon as Xia Yu picked up the phone, Zhou Hai called.

"This is my phone number, you can save it too!" Zhou Hai said happily to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu had no idea what Luo Fan was angry about, so she smiled and said to Zhou Hai, "Okay."

"You can go out now." Luo Fan felt jealous and started to chase them away.

Seeing Luo Fan's behavior, Zhou Hai was more certain that Luo Fan had a crush on Xia Yu. But brothers should compete fairly, and he would not give in.

"They're chasing us away. Come on, Xia Yu, I'll treat you to something delicious." Zhou Hai deliberately provoked Luo Fan and took the initiative to invite Xia Yu to dinner.

"This..." Xia Yu hesitated. She had just had a full meal at Qu Si Ning's house!

"There are several new barbecue restaurants opened in the food court. Why don't you try some?" Zhou Hai tempted again.

This time, Xia Yu simply ignored Luo Fan's slightly jealous look and agreed, "Go."

……

The so-called "food street" is indeed as its name suggests, with food so delicious that you will never want to leave.

Even though she was very full, Xia Yu couldn't help but pack up two more portions. She wanted to eat one herself, and take the other back for the God of Land to taste.

After eating barbecue with Zhou Hai, Xia Yu did not delay anywhere else and went straight back to the land temple.

Zhou Hai originally wanted to send Xia Yu home, but Xia Yu politely declined.

She couldn't let humans find out that she lived in the land temple! It was important to keep her identity secret.

……

The next day, Xia Yu received a call from Qu Si Ning and hurried to her house.

"So, do you know this person?" Xia Yu asked puzzledly, looking at the 'evidence of cheating' in Qu Si Ning's hand.

In the photo, Qu Si Ning is in a relationship with another boy, and they seem to be very affectionate.

But Qu Si Ning had no memory of that boy at all, and she firmly believed that she had never done anything to let Shang Jingyu down.

"I really don't know him." Qu Si Ning held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that Xia Yu would believe her and help her.

"These photos must be fake. I love Jingyu deeply, how could I be so close to someone else? This person forged the evidence and gave it to Jingyu with the purpose of breaking us up..." Qu Si Ning said according to her inference, and suddenly her face darkened, and she said in a depressed mood: "It is also possible that he deliberately made such a scene in order to break up with me..."

The photo is real, Xia Yu confirmed it from the beginning. If it is true that the marriage line is messed up and caused Qu Si Ning to cheat, then she shouldn't forget that...

The problem now is that Shang Jingyu took the initiative to break up because Qu Si Ning cheated on him.

But they still love each other deeply.

Suspecting that this matter was not that simple, Xia Yu tried to use magic to find out the cause, but found nothing unusual.

"Xia Yu, will you believe me?" Qu Si Ning asked expectantly.

"Of course." Xia Yu said firmly, but in fact he had no idea at all.

I originally believed you...but after checking for a long time, I didn't find anything unusual, and I can't explain whether your cheating is true or not!

"Okay, then accompany me somewhere." Qu Si Ning pulled Xia Yu's hand and was about to walk out.

Xia Yu followed Qu Si Ning and asked her, "Where are you going?"

Qu Si Ning slowed down her pace, looked up at Xia Yu, and said calmly: "I made an appointment with him to meet at the pavilion in the park."

A park pavilion?

This place name sounds a little familiar...

Xia Yu thought carefully and remembered that she had slept on a bench in that park for a night...

"Okay! I'll go with you." Xia Yu agreed immediately.

The misunderstandings between them must be resolved before the red thread can be tied to their hands.

……

Arriving at the agreed Baihua Park, Xia Yu saw a boy sitting on a bench in the pavilion from a distance. He looked solemn, looking around, and occasionally checking his watch.

That’s right, he is Shang Jingyu.

As he got closer, Shang Jingyu realized that Qu Si Ning was not alone.

"Who is this?" Shang Jingyu looked at Qu Si Ning with confusion. In fact, he felt like he had seen Xia Yu somewhere before.

"My friend." Qu Si Ning pulled Xia Yu to sit next to Shang Jingyu. Seeing Shang Jingyu's expression as he tried hard to recall something, she asked, "How? Do you know him?"

Oh, right, the park. Shang Jingyu finally remembered that he had indeed seen Xia Yu.

It was on this bench that he met her by chance when he went out for a night run that night.

"I've seen you once." Shang Jingyu looked at Xia Yu's confused expression and explained, "You sat on this park bench for a long time that night, right? I saw you when I ran to the park at night."

He probably doesn't know that she slept on this bench all night, right?

"Let's not talk about me. You guys agreed to meet here. Have you thought about what to do?" Xia Yu stood aside and clearly heard Qu Si Ning's heart beating faster.

As the topic shifted, Shang Jingyu's attention returned to Qu Si Ning, and his eyes were somewhat evasive when he looked at her.

"Can we... not break up?" Qu Si Ning spoke in an almost humble tone, but Shang Jingyu didn't even look at her.

He doesn't dare to look at her!
He cared about her a lot, but he could not accept the fact that she cheated on him and refused to admit it.

"Didn't you see the photo? You're not going to say I photoshopped that photo, are you?" Shang Jingyu looked into the distance, feeling somewhat helpless. After a moment of silence, he added, "Since you chose to like that person, why did you come back to provoke me? He is very rich and likes you very much, and you also like him by coincidence. Now that things have come to this, just let me go! I will bless you both."

"I don't know where you got the photo, but I can tell you that I don't know that person at all." Qu Si Ning's eyes welled up with tears as she spoke. She felt very aggrieved and said, "If I really have a crush on someone else, if I really like him, then why would I come to you?"

Xia Yu's thoughts were a little confused after hearing this.

Qu Si Ning said that she didn't know that person at all, but Shang Jingyu said that person liked Qu Si Ning very much. Apparently that person had been secretly in love with Qu Si Ning for a long time, and Shang Jingyu knew about it.

"Excuse me for interrupting." Xia Yu suddenly blocked Shang Jingyu's sight with one hand and said to him seriously, "Then, who is the boy in the photo? It seems that you know him."
