Chapter 36: Wang Yidi Calls Out, “Su Bai, Wait!”
“Su Bai, didn’t you say you weren’t going out to eat today? Why are you at this restaurant?”
Qiao Yingzi spotted Su Bai stepping out of the restaurant and immediately ran over, curiosity evident in her voice.
Su Bai wasn’t surprised to see her. He figured her father, Qiao Weidong, would have brought her to a good restaurant, but there was no sign of him.
“My dad had something to attend to, so he left early,” Yingzi explained.
Yingzi and Su Bai had grown up together, and she could easily read him. “But you haven’t answered me—why are you eating out?”
“Ah, Wang Yidi’s mum invited me to dinner, so I came,” Su Bai replied casually.
“Wang Yidi? Why are you having dinner with her?” Yingzi asked, perplexed.
“Her mum wants me to tutor her, but I’m not one to be taken advantage of so easily. If she wants a favour, I might as well get a free meal out of it,” Su Bai said, chuckling.
“Not at all,” Yingzi replied, rolling her eyes.
Turning to Su Bai, Huang Zhitao asked, “What about you, Su Bai? Any weekend plans?”
Before Su Bai could answer, Yingzi grabbed his arm protectively.
“Ah, I’m busy this weekend. Maybe next time,” Su Bai replied smoothly.
Just then, Wang Yidi rushed over. “Wait, Su Bai!”
Both Su Bai and Yingzi turned, surprised.
“What’s up, Wang Yidi?” Yingzi asked.
“Oh, nothing much. My mum’s at your place, Yingzi, so I figured I’d tag along,” Wang Yidi replied nonchalantly.
Su Bai and Yingzi exchanged glances, knowing exactly what was happening. Wang Yidi’s mum had already taken action.
