What's going on with you two immortals

Su Yang glanced at Ren Lingxi and nodded with a smile. "Alright."

"This lovely Lingxi is too polite, buying us coffee as soon as she arrives."

Ren Lingxi smiled at Zhang Ziming, who had spoken. "Don't mention it. It's only right since it's our first meeting."

As she said this, she and Su Yang walked towards the coffee shop.

Soon, the two of them returned, each carrying three bags of coffee, and placed them on the table.

Looking at the twelve cups of coffee, Meng Wenzhou chuckled. "Lingxi, did you know there were twelve of us?"

"Mmhmm, Brother Yang told me. You six each need to find a teammate, so that makes twelve, right~"

"True, but then again, we don't know if those three who haven't arrived yet will be able to find teammates."

Hearing this, Zhang Ziming laughed. "Haha, that Old Chu guy was the first to go look, and he still hasn't come back~"

"Yeah, he's the loudest but the slowest to act."

After the group sat around the table drinking coffee and getting to know each other for a while, a familiar figure finally appeared in the distance.

"Look, Ji Bo is back," Zhang Ziming said, pointing at Ji Bo approaching from afar.

"Oh? Didn't expect him to be back first."

At that moment, Ji Bo and a girl walked briskly towards the group.

As they got closer, Ji Bo looked at the six seated people and stammered, "You guys..."

His eyes flicked to Ren Lingxi beside Su Yang, and his expression immediately cracked. He closed his eyes, rubbed them, and looked again.

Seeing this, Meng Wenzhou glared at him. "What are you doing?"

"Ah? N-n-nothing, nothing at all..."

Ji Bo scratched his head and introduced the girl beside him. "Let me introduce you first. This is my teammate, whom I had a hard time finding. Her name is Yang Xiaoling."

After saying this, he turned to Yang Xiaoling. "Xiaoling, these are the friends I told you about."

This Yang Xiaoling next to Ji Bo looked slightly plump, about 160 cm tall, and probably weighed around 120 pounds.

Her face was round, but her features weren't bad. She had shoulder-length hair and looked quite cute and well-behaved.

She wore a white floral short-sleeved blouse, with black athletic shorts and a pair of white sneakers on the bottom. Her legs were fleshy but well-shaped.

Seeing this, Su Yang thought to himself, 'Oh? A bit chubby, but not bad looking.'

—System, scan.

[Yang Xiaoling, Appearance Score: 78]

—Indeed not bad. This kid Ji Bo knows how to pick them.

—Might as well check the other two's scores.

[Wang Shuyue, Appearance Score: 77]

[Chen Chen, Appearance Score: 75]

—Well, well, who would've thought this Yang Xiaoling has the highest score among the three.

—Not bad.

Yang Xiaoling stepped forward, exchanged greetings with everyone to get acquainted, and then sat down with Ji Bo next to Su Yang and Ren Lingxi.

Meng Wenzhou then suggested, "I think we should book the restaurant first. Otherwise, it'll probably be crowded later. Originally, it was Old Chu's treat, but since he's not back yet, let's just book it ourselves."

"Sounds good. Let's do it. What does everyone want to eat?" Zhang Ziming asked.

Su Yang looked at the four girls. "How about we let the four new friends choose?"

"Sure, sure. You guys discuss it. You can eat anything you want. It's on us guys~" Zhang Ziming said with a smile, looking at the four girls.

The personalities of these four girls were all relatively outgoing and cheerful. They weren't shy and were easy to get along with.

Introverted 'i' people definitely wouldn't come to participate in this kind of activity with strangers anyway.

The four of them had already become familiar with each other in this short time. Hearing Zhang Ziming's words, Ren Lingxi thought for a moment and said, "There's a wild mushroom and yak meat hotpot place in the ancient town. I just searched for it on Little Red Book, and the reviews are pretty good. Do you guys want to try it?"

Ren Lingxi said this while smiling and looking at the other three girls.

The others nodded. "Sure, we're not picky~"

"Haha, great. Then let's go for that~"

"Okay."

Seeing this, Su Yang confirmed, "Lingxi, what's the name of this place you mentioned?"

"Let me see... It's called 'Old Fatty Yak Hotpot'."

"Old what? Old Fatty?"

"Yeah~"

Hearing this, the guys couldn't help but laugh. "Haha, when did our Fatty Brother come to Li City to open a hotpot restaurant?"

Meng Wenzhou leaned back in his chair and joked, "Who knows."

"Haha, alright, enough of that. So, we're set on this place then."

"Mmhmm."

As he spoke, Su Yang opened the Tuan Tuan app to book a private room.

Seeing this, Zhang Ziming reached out to stop him. "Yang Yang, what are you doing? You won last time. Tonight's on me."

"Oh, right. I forgot about that. Okay then~"

Su Yang said, turning off his phone.

At that moment, Ren Lingxi beside him turned and asked with a smile, "What did Brother Ziming just call you? Yang Yang?"

Su Yang was taken aback and explained, "Uh... for some reason, he's called me that since the first time we met. I guess I've gotten used to it~"

"Hehe, really? Then can I also call you Yang Yang like Brother Ziming does?"

Hearing Ren Lingxi's words, the others exchanged knowing smiles.

Zhang Ziming teased, "It's allowed, Lingxi. I give my approval~"

Su Yang looked up with a helpless smile. "Fine, call me whatever you like~"

Ren Lingxi's big eyes sparkled mischievously. "Then I'll change how I address you from now on. I'll call you Yang Yang too~"

"Okay~"

......

As they chatted, Zhang Ziming quickly found "Old Fatty Yak Hotpot" on Tuan Tuan and booked a private room.

After securing the dinner spot, the time was 5:50 PM.

Everyone had finished their coffee, but Liu Bo and Chu Qiunan still hadn't returned.

Zhang Ziming stood up, looked around at the people on the street, and frowned. "Why aren't those two back yet?"

Meng Wenzhou said with his eyes closed, "Maybe we should ask. Waiting like this isn't great. If they really can't find anyone, our group of ten is enough anyway. Didn't Ji Bo say the minimum is ten people?"

Ji Bo nodded. "Yeah, when they two get back, we'll have exactly ten, which is enough."

"Alright then, I'll ask."

Zhang Ziming took out his phone, opened the guys' exclusive group chat, and tagged Liu Bo and Chu Qiunan.

Zhang Ziming: What's going on with you two immortals? We're getting hungry waiting. Why aren't you back yet? If you really can't find anyone, just forget it. Hurry back for dinner. We have enough people now anyway.

Two minutes after sending the message, Chu Qiunan finally popped up to reply: Coming, coming. What's the rush? Who said we couldn't find anyone?

Zhang Ziming: So you found someone?

Chu Qiunan: Obviously~ Of course we did.

Zhang Ziming: What about Fatty?

Chu Qiunan: Old Fatty is with me. I found two girls. They both agreed to join us. I saw Fatty hadn't found anyone, so I gave one to him as a teammate.

Liu Bo: You're talking nonsense! Wasn't it me who found them?

Chu Qiunan: How did it become you who found them? Clearly, I was the one who invited them.

Liu Bo: Hey? Trying to steal my credit now?

Seeing that the two were together yet still bickering on WeChat, Zhang Ziming typed impatiently: Alright, alright, stop bickering. Just come back, okay?

Liu Bo: Coming, coming~
