Handsome, can we get to know each other 02

Even though she was already hopelessly love-struck, Tang Manman was still shocked by Lin Yu's shamelessness.

What did he mean by together?

What did he want to do together?

What did he want them to do together?

Puffing her cheeks in anger, Tang Manman glared fiercely at Lin Yu with her expressive eyes.

Seeing her furious expression, Lin Yu knew she had misunderstood and hurriedly explained:

"I meant that we should go in together to have some drinks and listen to the music."

"Just like when we went out for hotpot together before."

"Why are you so angry?"

After saying this, Lin Yu shut his mouth, swallowing the rest of his words.

No need to rush.

It would still take a little while longer to reach that step.

Realizing she had gotten the wrong idea, Tang Manman's fierce momentum suddenly deflated.

However, even if it was just this kind of together, she still wasn't willing.

Three people with their kind of relationship drinking together—how awkward would that be?

She felt that compared to such awkwardness, letting that woman Xia Muzhu steal him away for the night was actually starting to look acceptable!

"..."

"Forget it."

Tang Manman lowered her head slightly, refusing to look at a big jerk like Lin Yu. Looking crestfallen and aggrieved, she said:

"You guys go ahead."

"Let's hang out another time."

With that said, without waiting for Lin Yu's reply, she turned around to leave, looking as if her heart had truly been broken by him.

"Don't go!"

Lin Yu panicked and grabbed Tang Manman's arm to stop her from leaving.

If she left like this.

How was he supposed to unlock his ultimate achievement for the night?!

Lin Yu knew perfectly well that tonight was a rare opportunity; he couldn't just let Tang Manman walk away.

He closed the distance in a few quick strides, cupping her soft cheeks with both hands. Seeing the moist redness in her eyes, Lin Yu's tone grew even softer. Half-begging and half-coaxing, he said:

"Please don't go."

"I haven't seen you in so long."

"I missed you so much too."

"Just stay and keep me company, okay?"

"Please?"

"Baby."

"You're my absolute favorite."

"Having you by my side will make me so happy."

Throwing caution to the wind, Lin Yu unleashed a flawless combo of sweet-talking player lines, making sure to finish it off with his ultimate move.

Cupping Tang Manman's face, he lowered his head and planted a kiss on her soft, pink lips.

Tang Manman's defensive wall of sadness completely crumbled under this relentless combo.

Honestly, the moment Lin Yu said, "Baby, you're my absolute favorite," Tang Manman was already so happy that she could barely keep the corners of her mouth from turning up.

When the final ultimate move landed.

Her heart felt as sweet as honey, and in a dizzy haze, she agreed.

Keep him company?

She would give him her very life!

"T-then, alright."

Tang Manman agreed to Lin Yu's request.

However, perhaps remembering that she had just been crying in heartbreak a moment ago, the sudden change in her attitude made even Tang Manman feel a bit embarrassed.

She forcefully suppressed the joy bubbling up in her heart.

Putting on a straight face to feign seriousness, she ended up sounding somewhat stubborn and cute as she said:

"But if she and I get into a fight."

"You have to take my side."

"Don't worry."

"You're my favorite baby."

Lin Yu was full of sweet talk, yet he kept things vague and made no real promises—standard player behavior!

But this was Tang Manman's first time in love, a romance she felt she had only won after enduring many hardships. How could she know any better?

She only felt that being called Lin Yu's favorite baby was the best feeling in the world.

She felt like the happiest person on earth!

Leading Tang Manman back to the booth, just as Lin Yu expected, Xia Muzhu raised an eyebrow, her face full of surprise.

"We just happened to bump into each other, so I invited her over to listen to the music together."

Lin Yu acted as if he had no shame whatsoever, pretending not to notice the surprise on Xia Muzhu's face as he chuckled.

"Oh."

Xia Muzhu nodded without saying much else.

She was a gentle person by nature; even if she felt a little displeased, she wouldn't show it in front of others and make things awkward.

Lin Yu and Tang Manman smoothly took their seats.

Lin Yu returned to his previous seat.

Which was to Xia Muzhu's left.

After sitting down, Lin Yu didn't forget about Tang Manman. He shot her a look and tilted his chin, gesturing for her to come sit next to him.

Tang Manman hesitated.

She felt that sitting over there right now would be a bit awkward...

No!

It would be more than just a bit awkward!

But on second thought.

Was she supposed to just watch Lin Yu sit next to that woman while she sat across from them, watching them show off their affection?

No way!

That was absolutely out of the question!

With that in mind, Tang Manman steeled her resolve, gritted her teeth, and stepped forward to sit right next to Lin Yu.

As a result, Lin Yu now had Tang Manman on his left and Xia Muzhu on his right, looking like a man enjoying the ultimate heavenly bliss.

However, even Lin Yu, who had mastered the art of being thick-skinned, couldn't help but blush with a bit of awkwardness in this moment.

He could only change the subject, attempting to use drinks to ease the tense atmosphere.

Lin Yu raised his hand and flagged down a waiter.

Looking at the drink menu on the table, Lin Yu first spoke to Tang Manman:

"I'll order you a pineapple fruit beer."

"It's mild, perfect for someone like you who can't handle alcohol."

Tang Manman nodded, obediently agreeing to Lin Yu's arrangement.

Then, Lin Yu turned his head and shifted his gaze to Xia Muzhu.

She looked slightly resentful, her deep blue eyes staring quietly at him.

"How about a special mixed tangerine liqueur for you?"

Lin Yu pretended not to notice Xia Muzhu's quiet stare, asking in a soft voice.

Xia Muzhu didn't answer right away. She stared at him for a moment longer, and upon realizing that she couldn't pierce through his thick-skinned defense, she had no choice but to nod helplessly.

"One pineapple beer, one special tangerine liqueur, and a plum wine."

Lin Yu told the waiter their drink orders.

After noting it down, the waiter intended to just turn and leave.

But he ultimately couldn't resist sneaking another glance at the three people in front of him, whose dynamic felt incredibly bizarre.

He got the distinct feeling that the relationship between these three was far from ordinary...

Not daring to stare too much.

For fear of getting into trouble, the waiter quickly cleared an empty glass from the table and prepared to leave.

Just as he turned around, the waiter suddenly caught a whiff of a very pleasant, familiar fragrance.

Looking closely, he suddenly realized that the long-legged beauty who had just been singing on stage had walked over at some point.

She was holding an orange-yellow cocktail in her hand.

Right in front of the two women—both of whom possessed outstanding looks and elegance—she extended her glass toward the man sitting between them. Flashing a polite and gentle smile, she asked:

"Hey handsome."

"Mind if we get to know each other?"
