Sure enough, Jiang Dawei extended an olive branch to me. I felt particularly awkward during lunch, as if I was deceiving him. Every word he said was filled with admiration for me, and every sentence was so tactful. I also spoke vaguely. I think he should understand that I neither agreed nor refused him, meaning I don't dislike him but also don't like him. We can just interact normally as boys and girls. I think he got the message, even though his Chinese grades were always failing in school.
Jiang Dawei said his good friend wanted to invite him over for dinner and he wanted to bring me along. I said it wasn't appropriate, but he insisted it was. His friend has a boyfriend and wants him to keep an eye on things, so it's fitting for me to come along. Surprisingly, I agreed readily. It's funny how things work out, the world is truly full of unexpected coincidences.
I didn't expect that, Jiang Dawei's good friend is actually He Bing's girlfriend, nicknamed Bihua, as mentioned by Zhou Yu.
The four of us appeared at the same time. The one who opened the door was Bihua, she has a pretty appearance, with a hint of classical beauty, but her mouth is not very attractive. I would say her mouth is a bit too big, it would be even more beautiful if it were smaller.
"David has been praising you in front of me all the time. I'm very happy to meet you. I'm David's classmate, my name is Meng Xue!"
"Nice to meet you, please come in!"
I shook hands with Bihua like this.
"Please have a seat for a moment, have some water, watch some TV, and the food will be ready soon!" Bihua said!
"Why haven't I seen your new boyfriend?" David asked.
"He's in the kitchen helping me cook! He's pretty good at cooking!"
Later I learned that He Bing wasn't just good at cooking, he was forced to show his skills by Bihua. I still don't know much about He Bing, as I usually do the cooking.
I carefully observed Bihua leaning against the kitchen door frame, her affectionate eyes looking inside. I became curious about what kind of man could captivate her like this. So I got up and involuntarily walked towards the kitchen, wanting to see this mysterious man. Unexpectedly, he came out with a dish, and I came face to face with He Bing. I knew I couldn't make a scene at this moment. We both remained calm, but I couldn't help myself:
"How come you're here?"
"Aren't you here too? What's so curious?"
"Do you know each other?" Bihua asked.
"Oh, we don't know each other, just met once, familiar face!" He Bing said.
"Everyone, please take a seat. The food is ready, so we can start the meal!" Bihua called for everyone to sit down.
This meal was the most suffocating one I've ever had, but I couldn't say anything. I couldn't act out like I used to. I admire how much I've changed. Because I deeply know that there's no one around me who dotes on me, and they won't allow me to act that way. Thinking back, I can't stand the way I used to be. I really acted recklessly. I doubt any man could tolerate me.
"Quickly, serve some food to your girlfriend and let her eat more, she's so thin!" Bihua said to David.
"So she's already your girlfriend, that was fast!" He Bing glanced at me, and also served some food to Bihua. Bihua also served some food to He Bing. They were back and forth like this, and I couldn't stand it, so I also served a shrimp to David's plate.
"Yes, take good care of your boyfriend. It seems that his decision to bring you here today was the right choice!" He Bing looked at me.
I felt upset at that moment and chose to remain silent...
"When should we get married?" I looked at David, knowing that I had made a mistake again. I said it on purpose for He Bing to hear, to make him care about me.
"Oh? Up to you!" David paused, clearly surprised by what I said. I admit that I didn't consider his feelings when speaking.
Everyone was silenced by my abruptness...
