"Are you tired now that you're here?" Yi Ming asked in a caring and gentle tone as he looked at the people walking towards him. He very politely pulled out a chair for her to sit on and even carefully ordered a cup of water for her. She was indeed very thirsty and took big gulps from the cup.

"Drink slowly, no one is fighting with you. Be careful not to choke." Yi Ming worriedly reminded the person who drank without a care for his image. When he saw that she had no image at all, not only did he not feel any revulsion, he instead felt that she was a form of enjoyment.

The rich and powerful girls around him were either pretentious or arrogant and despotic. Or was it just heavy makeup? He would feel disgusted just by looking at it. Since he had met her, he felt that the whole world had brightened. Every time he was with her, even if he didn't speak, he would do nothing but look at her. He felt that it was not just a pleasure, but a happiness.

"Cough cough!" Cough cough! " Bai Lin started to cough, while Yi Ming quickly stood up and patted her back.

"See!" I already told you to slow down, yet you refused to listen.

"It's all your fault, and you still have the nerve to say it, jinx." Bai Lin looked at the people patting her back and complained. She wasn't really complaining, she was just joking with him.

"Look at me, I'm so handsome! I'm like a crow with my beak, but at most I'm like a crow!" And it's been a handsome crow all along. " Yi Ming shook his hair narcissistically as he looked at the person coughing in the coffee shop. What kind of person was this? To actually call a handsome man like me a crow's beak, what a blind person.

"Pfft, ahem …" Looking at his narcissistic look, Bai Lin spat out all the coffee she just drank.

"You're really narcissistic." Bai Lin gave him a look of disdain. He had seen narcissistic people, but he had never seen such a narcissistic person. There was no way to save him.

"Luckily I let you go quickly, or you would let me go out like this!" Say, do I have a grudge against you? You're taking revenge on me. " Yi Ming complained as he looked at those who despised him. How am I narcissistic? If it was someone else, they would have already been charmed by me. But she was an accident. Thinking about how this person in front of him didn't even take him seriously, he felt extremely depressed. Had his charm decreased?

"You asked for it. Who asked you to be so narcissistic? Just when I was drinking, don't tell me you're not asking for it?" Bai Lin was speechless. He hadn't offended her, so where would he get his revenge?

"Have you been here for a long time?" Bai Lin seemed to have thought of something as she asked.

"No, I just arrived. How was my day?" Yi Ming asked in concern. In fact, he basically knew where she was, just pretending that he didn't know. He did not want to arouse her suspicion yet, because it was not yet time to lay his cards on the table.

"You want to know? "I won't tell you. Guess for yourself." Bai Lin held a small spoon in her hand and stirred the half-finished coffee before making a naughty face at him. She didn't want to tell him that she had been so excited to meet him all day and even drew a sketch for him out of the blue. As she thought about it, her face suddenly flushed red.

"Hey!" What are you thinking about? Thinking about your family's handsome guy! Look at your blush like a monkey's ass. " Yi Ming looked at her blushing face and said confidently. Actually, it wasn't hard to notice that there was a sour feeling in his words.

"I missed you!" Don't you feel it? " Bai Lin asked doubtfully. A mischievous expression on her face instantly dispelled her awkwardness. Phew, what kind of infatuation was this! He almost found out. That was close.

"Nope."

"What a pity. You didn't feel it? It might not have been you I was thinking about." Bai Lin looked mischievously at Yi Ming with her big eyes. If Yi Ming didn't catch the shrewdness in her eyes, he might think that what she said was true, because her eyes were too pure and gave people a very innocent feeling. It always made people want to protect her.

"You laughing girl, I haven't seen you for a few days and you've been bad at it." As he spoke, Yi Ming lightly scratched her nose. Perhaps it was because the two of them were already familiar with each other, but Yi Ming's actions were very natural.

Their relationship was unclear and unclear. He seemed more like a friend than a friend, but he didn't seem like a confidant either. To say that she was a lover seemed to have nothing to do with love. Although she felt somewhat complicated, Bai Lin felt that the two of them were getting along comfortably without any pressure. It was a good time for them to be together. They could play around, they could talk, they could advise each other, and they could support each other's right ideas.

Although Yi Ming felt that they were getting along well, he hoped that their relationship would get closer and develop towards their girlfriend, or even towards their wife. He understood why the women of his past had kept him from getting married, because he had only sex and no love for them. But this time it was different. Although he wanted to take her to bed, it wasn't because of sex. It was a feeling born of love. Therefore, he wanted to have a good grasp on it. He didn't want to lose it.

"You are the little girl. She is already twenty years old and has already reached adulthood. Oh right, a friend of mine is coming over, do you mind? If you mind, you can go first. " Bai Lin asked. She was afraid that he would mind so she decided to clarify things for him first. Otherwise, it would be awkward for everyone when the time came.

"Male or female?" When he heard that her friend was coming, he naturally reflexively asked.

"Woman, why are you so agitated? Are you ashamed of yourself? " He teased the people who had overreacted. Soon a friend will come! Was there a need to be so excited? Really, there was something wrong with his nerves.

"Oh!" If I want to be shamed, then the people I meet are not people! " Hearing that she was a girl, he immediately felt relieved. He didn't even finish his sentence, making him think that he had a love rival!

"You're not human! they just play word games for me and ignore you. " "Bai Lin pretended to be angry and turned her head to the side." "Over at Snowy's side." Bai Lin turned her head and saw the person who was looking around at the entrance of the restaurant. Hearing her voice, that person walked straight towards them.

"Sorry, I was delayed by something. Sorry for being late." Xia Xue looked at Yi Ming apologetically. However, Yi Ming didn't even look at her, his eyes never leaving Bai Lin.

"It's fine, you didn't do it on purpose. Come, let me introduce you. This is Yi Ming. This is my good friend, Snowy." Bai Lin introduced them.

"Hello, my name is Xia Xue." Xia Xue politely stretched out her hand, but the other side only nodded her head and didn't even have the intention to shake hands with her.

"Snowy, take a seat!" If you need anything to drink, I'll call for you. " In order to ease the tense atmosphere, Bai Lin said. She didn't think that Yi Ming would treat Xia Xue this way. To her knowledge, Yi Ming had always been a gentleman. He was polite and had a sinister feeling. At this point, she felt a little strange to him.

"Lin'er, are you hungry? Let me get you something to eat! I forgot about it. " With that, Yi Ming called over the waiter and ordered a few of Bai Lin's favorite dishes, then asked Xia Xue what she wanted to eat. He didn't want to ask, but his rude behavior just now had made her unhappy, so she had to ask even if she didn't want to.

From the moment Xia Xue saw Yi Ming, her eyes hadn't left him. Yi Ming really hated the way she looked at him, but due to Bai Lin's face, he had no choice but to restrain himself.

It wasn't that Xia Xue had never seen handsome men before, but it was really her first time seeing someone as handsome as Yi Ming, with his temperament and connotation. Maybe this was love at first sight! It was just that the intention to fall into the water was merciless.

"Lin'er, come try this. This is delicious too." Not long later, the dishes in Bai Lin's bowl were piled like a small mountain. Seeing Yi Ming so affectionately picking up dishes for Bai Lin, she felt really upset in her heart. At this moment, she felt like she was just an unnecessary person. They simply treated her as if she didn't exist. She really wanted to leave, but she wasn't willing to be ignored by Yi Ming like this. He was stronger than her in every aspect, but why was he only looking at Bai Lin? He didn't even give her a glance. She really couldn't accept it.

"Aiya! You love to go home and quietly show! "Let me, a single person, be jealous. It makes me want to find a boyfriend." Xia Xue smiled as she spoke, but there was not the slightest hint of a joke in her eyes. Instead, it made people feel as if she was a woman who had caught her husband cheating, and her eyes were filled with jealousy.

"Snowy, don't spout nonsense. We're just friends." Bai Lin's face was flushed red as she said coquettishly. She had been embarrassed by Yi Ming to begin with, but now that Xia Xue had said this, she was even more ashamed. Before, Yi Ming and her didn't seem to matter, but today there was someone else present, so she felt a little embarrassed. She had hinted to Yi Ming several times, but Yi Ming had ignored her.

"Why are you being shy? Alright, let's not talk about you. I should be killed by the look in my eyes later." Sensing Yi Ming's displeasure, Xia Xue tactfully said.

"Lin'er, do you have time later?" Yi Ming asked as he looked at Bai Lin, who was eating with her head down.

"What's the matter?"

"If there's nothing else, come out with me. I don't need to go back so early today." Yi Ming looked at Bai Lin expectantly. Actually, he had wanted to ask her out on his own for a long time, but he had no choice. Either he had something to do, or she couldn't go. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that the two of them had nothing better to do today and went out for a stroll around. They had known each other for so long that besides eating and chatting, no one had ever gone out to see a movie.

"But …" Bai Lin looked at Xia Xue'er hesitantly. "Xue'er, do you have time?" Bai Lin looked at the elegant steak eater and asked. She originally wanted to agree, but she hesitated when she thought of Xia Xue.

"I don't care, you know. I have everything, much less time. A lot of it." Actually, Xia Xue really wanted to be reserved for a bit, but she thought that if he said he didn't have the time, then she wouldn't be able to go with a thick face. Thus, he wisely decided to ignore Yi Ming's murderous look and directly agreed.

"I think it's better if Miss Xia doesn't go. Lin`er and I have something to say, so it won't be good if Miss Xia is cold."

"Yi Ming." "Ah!" Bai Lin awkwardly shouted. Xiao Xue, don't mind it. Yi Ming didn't mean it that way. He was just afraid that something might have happened to you, which would delay your time. " This time around, Bai Lin felt even more embarrassed. The more she described it, the more embarrassed she felt.

"It's fine. It's been a long time since I've been shopping. I won't be late." Xia Xue looked at Bai Lin and said, "Bai Lin gave me the stairs, I'm not an idiot."

What was this woman trying to do? You're still playing dumb after saying it so obviously. At this moment, Yi Ming had the urge to throw Xia Xue out, but he didn't dare to do so. She was a friend of Bai Lin. If he really did that, Bai Lin would never forgive him. All his efforts would have been in vain.

Forget it, looks like I can only find another opportunity. Yi Ming tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart so that his face looked normal.

"Lin'er, this is my number. If you need anything, just call me. I remember that I have some matters to attend to at work today, so I'll be leaving first."

"This is my number. I live with Bai Lin. If you can't get through to her, you can call me." Xia Xue saw that Yi Ming wasn't going to pay any attention to him, so she could only take the initiative. Yi Ming thought about it for a while, then took Xia Xue's name card and left after giving a few words to Bai Lin.
