Ling Kai's father is the second son in the family. The Ling family is now controlled by the eldest wife's side. The person in charge is his eldest cousin, who is a powerful figure.

Their second branch definitely has ambitions. His father has been making frequent moves recently, hoping to gain more resources from Ling's company to gain a firm foothold. He is his only son, so he still has high hopes for him.

Given his father's personality, he would expect him to marry a wife who can support him in his struggle.

Ling Kai's personality is a bit similar to Qin Mingzhi's, he is disobedient and a bit rebellious.

Having seen too many faces of children from wealthy families, he felt that those women were boring and hypocritical, but he had to rely on them to get things done.

On the contrary, he felt that women from ordinary families were more attractive and had more personality.

Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything to these people, and he was also worried about being stuck with a woman with bad intentions.

So, even though he looked at Hua Xin, his heart was colder and lonelier than most people.

He was very curious about how Qin Mingzhi could overcome all difficulties and be with Han Xi.

Suddenly, Cao Min at the table downstairs seemed to sense a gaze and raised his head sensitively, just in time to bump into Ling Kai who was looking over.

Ling Kai obviously didn't expect anyone to notice him. After being stunned for half a second, he smiled at her generously.

Cao Min raised the beer in his hand, smiled, then took a sip.

The movements are very free and easy.

Not long after, there was suddenly a dozen beers and a plate of boiled beef on Han Xi's table.

"What is this? We didn't order these!" Yue Hong looked at the waiter standing aside serving the dishes.

The waiter replied, "A gentleman upstairs ordered it for you. This plate of boiled beef was specially ordered for this lady. He said he wished you a pleasant meal!"

The waiter pointed to Cao Min next to him.

Everyone was surprised and looked up towards the second floor.

Ling Kai stood at the railing on the second floor and looked at them, as if waiting for everyone's attention. When he saw them looking at him, he raised the beer in his hand, then raised it in the direction of Cao Min, took a sip of the beer, and went back to the box.

Qiao Xun was obviously a little surprised to see Ling Kai, and looked at Han Xi and the other two, "Do you know Ling Kai?"

Han Xi didn't know how to answer, "We just met once!"

Cao Min: “We just met by chance!”

Yue Hong didn't want to talk much. He just hummed and took a sip of cold beer with some displeasure. Then he looked up in the direction of the second floor and lowered his head to eat.

Liang Xuanxuan looked at the three people opposite him thoughtfully.

She knew who Ling Kai was. It was true that Qiao Xun was the most handsome boy in their department, but if they really compared them, and if Ling Kai was willing to change his unruly and free-spirited personality and be more down-to-earth and closer to other students, then maybe he was the most handsome boy in their department.

After all, Ling Kai is not bad looking at all, his family background is better than Qiao Xun, and his bad boy personality touches girls' hearts even more.

In fact, many people like him privately.

Liang Xuanxuan was one of them, but after weighing the pros and cons, she knew that Qiao Xun was more suitable, and his appearance was also what she liked, so it was hard not to be tempted.

However, every time she saw Ling Kai, his bad personality always made her unable to stop. As soon as he appeared, her eyes followed him uncontrollably.

Just like now, she saw him and her heart beat faster.

Unfortunately, he was not looking at her, but the woman opposite.

What was his name? She forgot, or rather, she never kept unimportant people in mind.

The only reason I remember Han Xi's name is because of Qiao Xun.

"Let me tell you, I'm very good at judging people. I can tell at first glance that Ling Kai is not a good person. He looks like a playboy. You'd better be careful not to be fooled." Yue Hong turned sideways and said to Cao Min.

Cao Min stared blankly at the boiled beef in front of him, recalling the last time he bought underwear for his girlfriend at her stall. Because he had to wait for someone, he stood at the stall and chatted with her for a while.

She had forgotten what she talked about with him at that time, and she couldn't remember how he knew she liked this dish.

She turned her head and said, "I only met him twice. What are you thinking?"

Yue Hong looked at the plate of boiled beef and said, "Look, he has memorized all the dishes you like. I don't believe he has no intentions towards you!"

Men understand the nature of other men best. Looking at Ling Kai's expression, he saw a little bit of thought for Cao Min in his eyes.

Although that little thought was not very strong, as a friend, he couldn't just sit back and watch.

"What is there about me that he can want? Because my family is poor? Because I have a good education? Because I look like a fairy? Or because I am not liked by my parents at home?"

As he spoke, Cao Min felt really sad.

Doesn't she know her own situation?

Although she is not bad looking, with her parents like that, there is no way any decent man would be interested in her.

She has always been self-aware, and it is normal that Yue Hong doesn't like her.

But it was precisely because of this self-awareness that she was somewhat unwilling.

Why? She thinks she can be self-reliant and live well without relying on her parents, so can't she just have a warm embrace to lean on?

When she was having dinner with Yue Hong, the dishes on the table were all his favorites. Suddenly, someone ordered a dish of his favorite dish specifically for her.

Why did her heart become more desolate?

Was she too humble before?

She suddenly picked up a piece of beef with her chopsticks and put it in the bowl and kept eating.

Han Xi, who was talking to Qiao Xun here, sensitively felt that something was wrong with Cao Min, but there were many people at the table, so it was not convenient to chat with her about personal matters.

On the other side, Yue Hong fell silent because of Cao Min's words.

He knew that what Cao Min said was somewhat a result of anger, but he didn't like her belittling him like that. She was actually a very nice person.

How good is it?

She was very gentle to him, stayed by his side when he was unhappy, helped him when he made mistakes, and often cooked his favorite food for him...

However, she has changed recently and no longer pays attention to him. When he was rejected by Han Xi and was sad and had no one to accompany him, he asked her out, but she refused. Recently at school, she didn't ask him to have dinner together. When they met, she just greeted him casually. They were so unfamiliar that they were not even ordinary friends.

Are they like this?

After all, they are childhood sweethearts who grew up together.

And Ling Kai, who is obviously a playboy, had impure eyes when he looked at Cao Min. He couldn't bear to see Cao Min being abused by him like this.

He is her friend!

Can't let her get hurt!

The meal took almost two hours. Fortunately, Han Xi made an excuse to go to the bathroom and paid the bill in advance.

"You paid the bill? You make a grown man like me feel very uncomfortable!" Qiao Xun came back from the bathroom and looked at Han Xi and shook his head helplessly.

Han Xi was thankful. She didn't want to owe anyone even a meal. "Senior Qiao, you've already treated Cui Ling and me to a lot of food. It's just a meal. Don't take it too seriously!"

Qiao Xun raised an eyebrow, "You are the one who is being too serious. You can tell the difference so clearly!"

Han Xi didn't care, "It's a give and take, right?"

"Okay then, I'll treat you next time. Will your friends come too?"

"Of course. Thank you, Senior Qiao!" Cao Min took advantage of the situation.
