very partial

On the other side of the yard, Ji Xia had no idea that Song Yun was being "coerced" to drink because of herself, she stood quietly in front of the barbecue grill and used a brush to coat each string of food with a layer of cooking oil.

While fiddling with the food on the shelf, she was quietly thinking about the relationship between Jiang Wanqiu and herself.

After thinking about it, I was a little dazed.

just suddenly—

"Sister Zhou Zhou." Sensing someone approaching beside him, Ji Xia raised his head.

Sure enough, she saw Zhou Zhou standing next to her with an empty iron pan in his hand, looking around and seeing that he was coming to get things.

"I'm here to get something to eat. Is there anything grilled?" Zhou Zhou's eyes fell on the barbecue grill in front of him, and he saw the meat skewers on the top were grilled by the charcoal fire below, making a "sizzling" sound , she was a little unsure which ones to take.

But it doesn't matter, after all, she didn't really come here to get the barbecue.

But Ji Xia didn't know.

"The ones on the shelf will have to be roasted for a while before they can be eaten," she turned sideways and pointed to the table beside her. Several plates were already covered with barbecued green onions and chili powder: "There are some freshly baked dishes here." Part of it, you take it."

"If it's not enough, I'll bake it and send it over."

She didn't intend to communicate too much with Zhou Zhou at all.

But Zhou Zhou didn't immediately leave with his things, but asked another question naturally: "Did Song Yun say anything excessive to you when he went to your school today?"

"Huh?" Asking this question made Ji Xia a little dazed, and she hummed a single sound from her nasal cavity to express her doubts.

Even the movement of the barbecue in his hand stopped.

"Look for yourself." Zhou Zhou freed up a hand and pointed to a place not far behind him, "Song Yun is notoriously sloppy in our small circle, but for my sake, Ah Qiu I've never really felt sorry for her, but with today's appearance, I can see that I'm really angry."

After listening to Zhou Zhou's words, Ji Xia was startled for a moment, then turned around and looked behind him.

Not far away, Jiang Wanqiu and Song Yun were indeed very close together, and the two just happened to be clinking glasses for a new round.

But it wasn't just the two of them, there were other people, if Zhou Zhou hadn't come here to talk about it, she probably wouldn't have imagined that Jiang Wanqiu would be such a stingy person who would be angry with others.

After all, most of Jiang Wanqiu's appearances in front of her were signs of "mature", but her behavior of fighting against others was a little childish.

and……

"You mean my sister and Song Yun are angry because of me?" Ji Xia finally understood what it meant for Zhou Zhou to come around to him with a plate.

"Hmm." Zhou Zhou lifted his chin, "Aqiu has always drank a lot."

But today it doesn't count.

Zhou Zhou made it very clear. After a while, she returned to the lively crowd with a whole plate of barbecue. Having said that, she believed that Ji Xia would come by herself in a while.

Although she was also puzzled why Jiang Wanqiu cared so much about a little girl, she didn't bother to figure it out.

Maybe it's just a matter of personal preference.

Zhou Zhou returned to the crowd with food, then found a place to sit down, and continued to watch the "competition" between Jiang Wanqiu and Song Yun.

After a while, Yiyi walked towards her.

Looking at the person who is still eating the skewers, Yi Yi has a headache: "You just look at it like this?"

"I can't persuade you." Zhou Zhou said her answer directly. She raised her eyes and glanced at Yi Yi who was frowning tightly, "But don't worry, someone will come to persuade you later."

While the two were talking, Zhou Zhou glanced away, and saw Ji Xia walking towards them not far away.

She raised her eyebrows subconsciously, and said softly, "Isn't it here?"

"Sister." Ji Xia said "Sister", causing Jiang Wanqiu's hand, which was about to continue pouring wine, to stop suddenly.

The woman's sharp eyes suddenly became softer, she withdrew her hand from the bottle, and asked with concern: "Are you tired from baking?"

"Sister, are you still drinking?" Ji Xia's eyes wandered back and forth between Song Yun and Jiang Wanqiu, and then fell on the empty wine bottle on the ground.

There are a lot of empty bottles, and I have already drank a lot.

No wonder Zhou Zhou came here specially to find her.

She thought for a while, then suddenly squatted down to observe the body of the bottle for a while, and then asked: "Did you drink so much because this wine is delicious?"

"I want a drink too."

The girl raised her head and looked at Jiang Wanqiu, as if asking for her opinion.

Such clean and clear eyes made Jiang Wanqiu feel a little drunk, she realized later that today she was talking about bringing Ji Xia out to play, but in the end she left him alone and drank by herself.

This seems like a very bad behavior.

"Stop drinking." Jiang Wanqiu didn't answer Ji Xia's question, she suddenly changed the subject, "Let's play something else."

"Then it's better to turn the wine bottle." Someone suggested, "Truth or Dare."

Song Jun didn't say a word, and finally stopped arguing.

Hearing that Jiang Wanqiu wanted to change the game, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Zhou Zhou, who was sitting a little further away, saw that Ji Xia had persuaded the person they couldn't persuade with a few words, so he smiled relievedly.

She looked at Yi Yi next to her: "Look, don't you?"

After asking, she also got up and walked over there, joining the game.

Only Yi Yi stayed where she was, biting her lips, frowning, not knowing what to think.

This time, Ji Xia also joined the game.

She was sitting next to Jiang Wanqiu, quietly exerting her "sedative" effect.

Although Song Yun would turn over to take a look from time to time,

The wine bottle was spinning quickly, but unexpectedly, the first round would be transferred to Ji Xia.

When the empty bottle was aimed at him, Ji Xia still hadn't reacted.

The person who turned the bottle was a very talkative girl. Seeing that she was transferred to a younger sister, she didn't feel too embarrassed. She just asked a question casually: "Sister Ji Xia, how old was the first time you fell in love?"

"I haven't been in a relationship yet." Ji Xia blurted out this question almost without thinking about it.

The audience was silent for a second, and then there were a few laughs, and even Jiang Wanqiu, who was sitting by the side, showed a surprised expression.

She thought Ji Xia was a blank sheet of paper, but she didn't expect that the other party was really a blank sheet of paper.

"Aqiu, then you sister, you really have to watch carefully in the future, don't be fooled by some little bastards!" Someone teased.

A new round of the game started again, and after a few rounds, the mouth of the bottle was finally aimed at Jiang Wanqiu.

Ji Xia's whole body suddenly became energetic, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at Jiang Wanqiu.

There is obvious expectation in the eyes, this kind of private game quiz can help her get to know each other faster...even some questions that she can't open her mouth to ask.

But after the question was asked, Ji Xia soon regretted it.

"How is the handsome guy that Zhou Zhou introduced to you a few days ago? Let me tell you about it?" The person who asked the question obviously knew Jiang Wanqiu's recent developments very well, and the essence of human gossip was exposed in no time.

Everyone is obviously very interested in such "emotional topics".

"He asked me to go out to watch a movie tomorrow night." Jiang Wanqiu smiled nonchalantly, and answered very generously.

"You promised?"

"accepted."

In the crowd, it is not known who first let out an ambiguous laugh.

Ji Xia only felt that after listening to such a few short conversations, her whole body seemed to be trapped in a quagmire, and the mud was wrapped around her and was about to submerge her, so that her chest felt tight and she was a little out of breath.

And no one seems to notice her sinking deeper and deeper.

Ji Xia drooped her eyelashes, her lips were pursed a little tighter, and at this moment...

"Oh, I seem to hear someone's heartbroken voice." Song Yun's gloating voice came from the side, she spoke softly, and only Ji Xia could hear it.

Ji Xia turned his head, and soon met Song Yun's "seeing everything" eyes.

The two stared at each other for only a moment, but was soon interrupted by a cold voice——

"Song Yun, what are you doing?"

The sudden sound made Song Yun inexplicably feel a chill on the back of his neck.

Jiang Wanqiu stretched out her hand and walked around from behind to embrace Ji Xia towards her, then looked over at her, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you not had enough wine yet?"
