Although Qi Mei couldn’t see her own expression, she could already feel her ears burning. She stood there, but her brain was working fast. What should she do now? Pretending that she drank fake wine and was talking nonsense? This excuse was plausible, but at this moment, all kinds of images appeared in her mind…

Xie Xiaoli looked at Qi Mei as if she was winning, she won Yin Ziyuan, and she was the winner. She didn’t think there was anything wrong with being a mistress at all and even laughed at Qi Mei’s incompetence. And when Yin Ziyuan reached out to hold Xie Xiaoli’s hand, all the other people cast sympathetic and pitiful gazes at her…

There was no need to wait until the night was over. All the employees would know. She, Qi Mei, had been betrayed and dumped! Her ex-boyfriend was flexing his muscles with his mistress!

Qi Mei, who had always been sought after, was unable to stand it. Her self-esteem did not allow her to accept such gazes and sympathy.

At this moment, she clenched her fists tightly and looked at Song Bojian with desperate courage. She said in an indifferent and calm tone, “Think about my suggestion. I’m serious since we’re both single.” After saying that, she couldn’t take it anymore and turned around to leave.

However, after she took a few steps, a voice suddenly came from behind her, “Why are you running?”

She stopped in her tracks. Why was she running away? Of course, it was because she was afraid of being rejected by him directly. She really did not want to embarrass herself anymore, even if she was deceiving herself. But since Song Bojian asked the question, she could only stop.

She slowly turned her head to look at him. He walked towards her without batting an eyelid and said slowly, “Can it be interpreted that you were hitting on me just now?”

Qi Mei felt her blood freeze under his stare, but she had already said that. If she took it back now, wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing? Anyway, even if he rejected her tomorrow, it was fine.

However, Song Bojian tilted his head slightly, and the corners of his lips curled up into a smile on his cold face. “Oh, I see.”

She was confused by his words. However, she still explained, “We are high school classmates, and maybe it’s better for us to go on a blind date than with a stranger. It will be less awkward.”

“There’s nothing wrong with this thought.”

Qi Mei was left speechless by his kind explanation. She felt that if she continued, it would seem that she tried to cover it up other than explain. However, she suddenly realized something. Did Song Bojian think that she deliberately picked on him?

She went through what had happened between them after their reunion.

At the bar, she kicked her shoe into his arms…

Later, her slippers happened to be broken in front of him…

Most importantly, what she said tonight…

Even if she didn’t have other feelings for him before, she would basically become an infatuated woman who admired him but couldn’t get him after tonight…

But when she thought about what Yin Ziyuan had done and how he disgraced her today, she should fight back. She did not want to see Yin Ziyuan crying and kneeling in front of her, begging for forgiveness. Of course, she would not forgive him. She wanted him to know she would only find a better man after leaving him.

No, it should be the best man. Song Bojian was the one! He surpassed Yin Ziyuan in terms of appearance, figure, and capacity for work.

Qi Mei quickly sorted out her thoughts. “Okay, then please consider my words seriously.” After that, she looked up at him, no longer avoiding his eyes, and waited for his reaction.

However, he was so calm that she couldn’t see what was going through his mind. She thought for a moment. It couldn’t be his first time to hear a girl say those things to him. However, since she had already said it, even if she was rejected, she had to pretend she did not care. At the very least, it was not too humiliating.

But Song Bojian didn’t reject her as she had expected. He just stood there quietly and did not say anything else.

She could not help but heave a sigh of relief and felt she should leave quickly before he could react .”It’s getting late. I won’t disturb you anymore. Good night.” With that, she prepared to leave.

“You are going to leave like that?” he suddenly asked.
