Nan Weiwei's cheeks flushed slightly due to the spiciness and anger. She stared at Fu Yanchen opposite with her big watery eyes, with a hint of an angry smile on the corner of her mouth:

"Fu Yanchen, if you dare, if you dare to introduce a female employee to Nan Yifeng, I will introduce a man to Xu Xiaoxiao! Let her date another man."

There was a hint of provocation and seriousness in her words, as if she really intended to treat this matter as a contest.

Xu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting next to Nan Weiwei, was concentrating on eating the beef. She was so shocked by these words that she almost dropped the chopsticks in her hand.

She raised her head and looked at Nan Weiwei innocently, her eyes full of confusion and helplessness: "Weiwei, this...how come it's all about me again? I'm not your tool for revenge!"

Fu Yanchen, as the instigator of this "turmoil", seemed unusually calm.

He smiled lightly, with a sly look in his eyes: "Weiwei, ah Weiwei, you are so jealous at a bad time. I just think that Nan Yifeng's job is too monotonous, and I want to add some fun to his life. Why are you taking your anger out on Xiaoxiao?"

Nan Yifeng, sitting next to Fu Yanchen, remained silent throughout.

He lowered his head to eat the food in the bowl, occasionally looking up at Nan Weiwei and Fu Yanchen, his eyes showing both helplessness and a bit of doting.

He knew that whenever these two "lively treasures" got together, there would always be such "verbal sparring". Only Nan Weiwei dared to bicker with Fu Yanchen, and only Xu Xiaoxiao dared to dump Fu Yanchen.

At this time, the hot pot restaurant's proprietress came over with a plate of fresh ingredients. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "Oh, young people are full of energy! But having said that, we don't allow 'internal fighting' in our hot pot restaurant! Come, eat more meat and cool down!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

Nan Weiwei couldn't help but let out a "puff", and her anger instantly dissipated for the most part.

She glared at Fu Yanchen, turned away pretending to be angry, but couldn't help laughing secretly.

This little "storm" eventually turned into laughter in the lively atmosphere of the hot pot restaurant.

The friendship between Nan Weiwei, Fu Yanchen, Xu Xiaoxiao and Nan Yifeng also quietly deepened in this ease and happiness.

After dinner, Xu Xiaoxiao glanced at her phone, frowned slightly, then stood up, with a bit of apology and determination in her tone:

"Well, there's a big order to be handled in the store tomorrow, and there's a lot of preparation to do, so I'll be leaving first. Have fun, guys."

After saying that, she picked up the bag next to her and looked like she was ready to leave.

Seeing this, Nan Yifeng's eyes flickered, as if he was making some important decision.

He first quickly glanced at the cute and lovely Nan Weiwei standing next to him, and then his gaze turned to the handsome Fu Yanchen not far away.

After hesitating for a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind. He reached out his hand without hesitation and grabbed Nan Weiwei's slender and soft arm, then took big strides and hurriedly walked towards the entrance of the hot pot restaurant.

At the same time, he said loudly: "Then Weiwei and I will go back to the hotel first! It's really too late, it's not safe for a girl to go back alone so late! Yanchen, I still have to trouble you to take the trouble to send Xiaoxiao home!"

As he spoke, his tone was extremely firm, leaving no room for negotiation or refusal, as if all of this was a fact that was set in stone and could not be changed.

Nan Weiwei was a little confused by Nan Yifeng's sudden action. She staggered a few steps before she could steady herself.

She looked back at Fu Yanchen and Xu Xiaoxiao, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, but in the end she chose to follow Nan Yifeng and walked out of the hot pot restaurant.

Fu Yanchen looked at the backs of Nan Yifeng and Nan Weiwei as they left, a playful smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

He turned to look at Xu Xiaoxiao, his eyes full of tenderness and care: "Xiaoxiao, let me take you home. It's so late, and it's really not safe for a girl like you. Have you forgotten what happened before?"

Xu Xiaoxiao stood at the door of the hot pot restaurant. The night breeze blew gently, lifting a few strands of hair on her forehead.

Her heart felt as if it was being gnawing at by countless ants. It was a mess and she had no idea what was going on.

When she thought of Nan Yifeng and Nan Weiwei's seemingly "betrayal" behavior, she couldn't help but get angry and secretly resented in her heart:

Well, you two, how dare you tease me like this! However, when her anger subsided a little, she couldn't help laughing, thinking that their behavior was really childish and ridiculous.

At this moment, she really wished that she could have a pair of invisible big hands that could travel through time and space, bring back those two naughty guys, and then teach them a lesson, so that they would know that it is not fun to annoy her.

However, she also knew very well that this was just a little joke between friends and there was no need to take it too seriously.

After all, everyone gets along very well with each other on a daily basis, and occasionally playing some harmless pranks like this can actually add a lot of fun to life.

She took a deep breath, as if to suck all the chaotic thoughts in her chest into her stomach.

I closed my eyes tightly, frowned slightly, and silently told myself to calm down.

After a long while, she slowly opened her eyes, and her vision gradually became clear.

Then, she slowly turned around and faced Fu Yanchen.

There was a faint smile on his face, but that smile concealed a barely perceptible bitterness and helplessness.

She said softly, "Really, you don't have to send me off. I can go back by myself."

Her voice was soft and gentle, as calm as the ripples caused by a breeze blowing across the lake.

But at the same time, there is an unwavering force that cannot be easily ignored.

However, Fu Yanchen seemed to have not heard her words at all.

He took a big step forward without hesitation, instantly closing the distance between them.

Then he stretched out a hand and accurately grasped her slender wrist.

His movements were clean and neat, without any sense of dragging.

Although the force he used was just right and would not hurt her, it would definitely not allow her any chance to break free.

"I send you."

Fu Yanchen's voice is deep and magnetic, as beautiful as the melody played by a cello.

Every word that uttered from his mouth seemed to be solid and powerful, as if it had been tempered through thousands of hammers, and seemed to carry an innate majesty and dominance that was irresistible.

Xu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, and a trace of displeasure appeared on her beautiful face. She has always been independent and she hates being forced to make decisions for herself. And the one who made this move was Fu Yanchen! You know, in her heart, she has always maintained an ambiguous attitude towards this man.

"I'm telling you, there's really no need!" Xu Xiaoxiao tried hard to free her hand from Fu Yanchen's powerful big hand, but the other party obviously didn't intend to let go easily. Instead, he held it even tighter, as if he was afraid that she would disappear if he let go.

"Xiaoxiao, stop being so willful, okay?"

Fu Yanchen stared at the somewhat annoyed beauty in front of him, his deep eyes flashing with a mixture of seriousness and concern.

His voice was deep and magnetic, and he said in an unquestionable tone:

"It's very late now. It's not safe for a girl like you to go home alone. Let me take you home. I do this out of my concern for you."

His words were extremely sincere, and every word revealed his concern for Xu Xiaoxiao's safety, making it hard to doubt that there was any falsehood in them.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao remained unmoved. She raised her head stubbornly and met Fu Yanchen's burning gaze without flinching.

"Xiaoxiao..." Fu Yanchen sighed, "What can't I do?"

Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned. She looked into Fu Yanchen's deep eyes, as if she could see endless tenderness and care in them.

She suddenly realized that maybe she was too stubborn.

So, she sighed softly and compromised: "Okay, Xiaomei said that everything is ready, no need to prepare, then you can take me back to the downstairs of my villa."

After hearing this, Fu Yanchen's originally tense lips slightly raised, outlining a faint smile. That smile was like a flower blooming in spring, exuding a charming and mysterious atmosphere.

He slowly loosened his big hand that had been tightly holding Xu Xiaoxiao's slender wrist, and his movements were so gentle as if he was afraid of hurting her.

Then, his arm naturally moved to Xu Xiaoxiao's shoulders and gently held her in his arms.

In this way, he took Xu Xiaoxiao and walked steadily towards the parking lot.

However, in this pitch-black night, there was a pair of eyes that were like a poisonous snake hidden in the darkness, staring at the two figures that were moving away.

The gaze was icy cold, filled with chilling malice and prying desire.

On the way to the parking lot, Fu Yanchen and Xu Xiaoxiao remained silent.

Despite this, the air around them seemed to be filled with an indescribable tacit understanding.

This tacit understanding is like an invisible and intangible silk thread, quietly and silently connecting them closely; at the same time, it is also like the warm sun in winter, continuously emitting bursts of gentleness that warms people's hearts.

When Fu Yanchen parked the car downstairs of the community where Xu Xiaoxiao lived, she gently opened the car door and prepared to get out.

However, the moment she closed the car door, Fu Yanchen suddenly called her: "Xiaoxiao, wait a moment."

Xu Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at him puzzledly: "Anything else?"

Fu Yanchen smiled slightly, took out a mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to her: "Is this your phone? You left it in the hot pot restaurant just now."

Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized. She took the phone and looked at Fu Yanchen gratefully: "Thank you, I almost forgot."

"You're welcome." Fu Yanchen shook his head gently, "Be careful next time, don't be so careless all the time."

There was some blame in his tone, but more of it was concern and doting.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She looked at Fu Yanchen and suddenly said, "Fu Yanchen, you, actually, are a very good person."

Fu Yanchen was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He looked at Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes that were shining with sincerity, and suddenly an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

He smiled and whispered, "You too."

The two were silent, and no one left first. After a while, Fu Yanchen spoke, "Xiaoxiao..."
