Today is Sunday, Jiang Yin and I made an appointment to go to an art exhibition at ten o'clock in the morning.

But when I opened my eyes, it was almost nine o'clock.

I immediately got up and washed up, then turned around and saw the dishes in the kitchen sink that I hadn't had time to wash last night. I sighed resignedly, rolled up my sleeves and started washing.

At this moment, Jiang Yin called: "Xu Xu, you didn't forget our appointment today, right? Let's meet at ten o'clock to go to the exhibition together."

"How could I forget the agreement with the beautiful lady? Don't worry, I've always kept it in mind." I put the phone on speaker and answered with a smile while washing the dishes.

But Jiang Yin on the other end of the phone heard the sound of me washing up, and immediately asked, "Xu Xu, what are you doing? Are you making breakfast?"

"No, we had guests over last night, and we finished dinner so late that I left all the dishes in the sink and am only washing them now." I was still a little embarrassed to let Jiang Yin see my sloppy side.

Jiang Yin did not show any disdain towards me. Instead, she became excited: "What? Xuxu, you hosted a banquet for guests at home last night? And you even cooked for them yourself? I want to go to your house for dinner, too. I've heard from Zhou Hanzhi that your cooking skills are unmatched in the world! I want to try it."

I was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to respond.

It must be because I woke up early and my mind was not clear, which led me to blurt out the truth without thinking. Now, people want to come to my house for dinner.

I couldn't let Jiang Yin come to my house for dinner, not because I was afraid of her eating there, nor because I was afraid of causing trouble, but because I couldn't let her know that I was still living in the small apartment where I used to live with Zhou Hanzhi.

If that happened, she would definitely misunderstand that Zhou Han and I still have feelings for each other and would keep pestering me.

But the words have been spoken, how should I respond now?

"Xuxu, why aren't you talking? Did I say something wrong?" My silence caught the attention of Jiang Yin on the other end of the phone, and she immediately asked again.

"No, no." How could I make such a beautiful girl unhappy? She didn't say anything wrong, I was the one who said something wrong.

"So you agree to let me go to your house for dinner?" Jiang Yin was very happy.

"No, no, Jiang Yin, it's actually not very convenient here..." I panicked again and began to stutter, "My cooking skills are not good at all. I almost blew up the kitchen last night. How about I treat you to a meal outside? Okay?"

If I don't stop her, Jiang Yin will directly set the time for dinner at my house.

But as soon as I lied, I felt uneasy and my voice started to fade.

Jiang Yin could tell that I was lying and also recognized my true words. She sighed softly and her tone suddenly became a little sad. "Okay, I understand. Xuxu doesn't welcome me to her home for dinner. Maybe it's because my level is not high enough and my relationship with Xuxu is not that close. So I am not qualified to have dinner at Xuxu's home."

Oh, I knew that beautiful women are all fairies, and she teased me on purpose.

Jiang Yin's voice is different from Lin Xixi's delicate voice, but she turns into a green tea girl and deliberately acts coquettishly in a weird way. Her voice is just as soft and delicate, which makes people feel numb just by listening to it.

For a moment, my heart really softened and I wanted to impulsively agree to her and meet all her needs.

But I couldn't, I could only continue to stutter incoherently: "No, no, Jiang Yin, you, what are you talking about, what do you mean by unqualified, of course we are good friends..."

"Then why don't you let me go to your house for dinner?" Jiang Yin suddenly asked, her voice became normal, but her tone was full of inquiry, "Is there some secret hidden in your family that you dare not let me know?"

My heart skipped a beat and I panicked again: "What secrets can I have from you, Jiang Yin, don't joke with me. My cooking skills are really not good enough, so I can't let you come to my house for dinner. But I will treat you to lunch today. I remember that you like Japanese food, right? I know a very good Japanese restaurant, shall we go together?"

Although I was nervous this time, I didn't stutter and I changed the topic naturally.

While I was panicking, a strange feeling came to my heart. This strange feeling came from Jiang Yin's reaction and performance, but I couldn't tell what was abnormal.

"Okay, okay, I won't embarrass Xuxu. I won't force you to go to her house for dinner." Jiang Yin immediately switched to a soft tone, saying affectionately, "Then I'll wait for you at home, Xuxu. When you're done packing and leaving, let me know. I'll be waiting for you at the gate of the community."

"Okay." The topic was finally over. I breathed a sigh of relief, immediately agreed and hung up the phone.

While continuing to wash the dishes, I kept thinking about the conversation Jiang Yin had just had with me. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Jiang Yin was abnormal.

Now I figured out what was unusual. Jiang Yin's coming to my house for dinner was an excuse. She wanted to come and see my home. The reason why she asked me if there were any secrets hidden in my house was a test and suspicion.

But what did she want to see at my house? Even if she saw that I was still living in the same small apartment, even if she knew that Zhou Hanzhi and I were still entangled, even if she misunderstood that Zhou Hanzhi and I still had feelings for each other, what could she do?

What is her intention?

I thought about this question for a long time, until I drove to the gate of Jiang Yin's community to pick her up and saw her casual and light outfit, I barely found a possibility.

Maybe Jiang Yin is still obsessed with Zhou Hanzhi. She liked Zhou Hanzhi at first but couldn't get him. Now she finally has the chance. Maybe she wants to make sure that there is really no connection between us before she can take Zhou Hanzhi away.

I originally thought that there was something going on between her and Zhou Pinzhi, but today she knew Zhou Pinzhi would see her, yet she dressed so simply and casually, obviously not expecting Zhou Pinzhi.

Not having expectations about someone means you are not interested in them and don’t like them.

Then the person she likes in her heart should still be Zhou Hanzhi.

Zhou Hanzhi is a guy with really good luck in love. Not only is he always loved by women, but he also always makes people miss him.

But this is his own business and has nothing to do with me. I just need to make sure I don't get implicated and get into trouble.

Once I made up my mind, I calmed down and drove towards the exhibition.

Jiang Yin sat next to me and fastened her seat belt, but suddenly asked a question: "Xu Xu, last time you said you could tell fortunes, is that true?"

"Huh?" This girl, why is she still thinking about this matter? She has asked me about this topic twice.

"I've heard of witches who can tell fortunes and predict the future. They can figure out the ins and outs of a matter." She stared at me intently, her tone a little apprehensive, "Are you that kind of witch?"
