She was also someone with severe face blindness, no matter how handsome a face was, it had no effect on her; she could forget it in a blink of an eye, so that when An Nan saw this man again later, she still didn't recognize him.
It was just that her movements while eating became increasingly unnatural.
Between them, such a brief exchange of glances went unnoticed by others. The moment An Nan lowered her head, the man's gaze quickly turned cold.
Lin Mubai glared at his good friend Xi Shaoqi, with an increasingly icy stare, while the latter was unaware, his full attention focused on the person beside him.
Their intimate actions were quite suggestive, but both clearly stated they were just old classmates, so others dared not say much. Everyone watched silently, each harboring their own speculations.
As An Nan finished eating, Xi Shaoqi finally put down his chopsticks, and at this moment An Nan's phone rang.
Xi Shaoqi seemed accustomed to this, not finding it strange at all. Everyone just heard him say to the woman beside him, "Time to go back? I'll take you."
An Nan quickly declined: "No need, I drove myself today, let's meet up again on your birthday."
"Alright, then keep in touch by phone, I'll escort you to the elevator."
Afterwards, An Nan bid farewell to everyone simply and left the private room with Xi Shaoqi.
As she was leaving, her peripheral vision once again caught that cold figure, she paused slightly, and then resolutely turned to leave.
As soon as they left, the private room instantly buzzed with activity.
"Wow wow wow, I think Third Young Master and this woman definitely have an unusual relationship."
"Exactly, exactly, did you see how Third Young Master looked at that woman just now? Wow, it was super gentle."
"Uh-huh, and the two of them are really in sync. That An Nan didn't even ask for a tissue, but Third Young Master immediately handed it over. Although An Nan isn't considered a beauty, fortunately she has great poise, gives a really comfortable impression, she's a woman you could marry."
"Uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh," followed by a string of agreements.
Despite their talk, everyone understood deep down that, in a family like the Xi's, it wouldn't be easy for a woman without any background to marry in. It was the same for them, marriage was never something they could fully control.
Xi Shaoqi naturally knew the private room must be full of chatter now, and he decided to offer some explanation. Actually, he had another purpose for today's actions: An Nan was already 28 years old and still didn't have a boyfriend. In his circle, there were good men, so he thought to find a suitable one for her. But judging by An Nan's gaze today, she didn't linger on anyone, was she uninterested in all of them? Looks like he needed to try harder, continue to introduce more. Well, he'd wait for his birthday, gather all the young talents of B City for An Nan to slowly pick from.
Thinking this, it felt strange, but he didn't think much about it. Long after, when An Nan had someone by her side, he finally understood why this uncomfortable feeling existed.
Watching An Nan enter the elevator, Xi Shaoqi didn't forget to remind her, "Send me a message when you get there."
Everyone knew Third Young Master Xi hated sending texts, but he made an exception only for An Nan.
The person inside the elevator still had a curve at their lips, waved a hand, and said, "I know."
