Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Women Can’t Be Offended
“Luo Ziling, why haven’t you introduced us to your friends?” After sitting down, Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Luo Ziling with a mocking smile, “Is it because you think we’re too ugly and you don’t want your roommates to meet us?”
“Alright,” Luo Ziling had no choice but to make the introductions: “This is Fang Qianqian, this is Chen Xiaoxiao, both are students from Qinghua University. These are Cao Jianhui, Wu Longjiang, and Li Fuming, my three roommates.”
Hearing Luo Ziling introduce them, Cao Jianhui quickly stood up, bowed gracefully to the two ladies, and greeted them very chivalrously, “Dear beautiful seniors, I’m Cao Jianhui, class president of Yan University Medical School Clinical Medicine Freshman Class and the head of our dorm. You’re welcome to visit our dorm anytime; we will greet you most warmly. Look, all four of us in the dorm are super handsome, it’s just that our boss is a bit more so. Spending time with four such handsome guys will surely be one of life’s greatest pleasures. Right, beauties?”
Cao Jianhui’s affected manner made both Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao laugh, yet it irritated Luo Ziling to the point of frustration.
However, with so many people around, he couldn’t show his annoyance.
At that moment, the waiter brought the bone broth base and side dishes they ordered.
“What would you ladies like to drink?” Cao Jianhui asked Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao with the same enthusiasm.
“I said I’d treat today, so I should be the one asking everyone,” Fang Qianqian didn’t respond to Cao Jianhui’s question, but instead turned to Luo Ziling, “Ziling, what would you like? Will you drink alcohol?”
“You don’t know, our boss can really hold his liquor. Even if five of us combined, we wouldn’t match half of his capacity. No need to ask him; he definitely wants to drink. The key question is, what do you two beauties want? I’ll get it for you,” Cao Jianhui said almost casting aside his dignity in front of Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao.
“I didn’t know Ziling had such a high tolerance for alcohol,” Chen Xiaoxiao quickly replied, “It looks like we’ll have to drink to our heart’s content tonight.”
“Xiao Xiao can also hold her drink pretty well. How about you two have a drinking contest today?” Fang Qianqian playfully instigated, “Let’s see who is more formidable. Just name your drink; if it’s not here, we’ll go out and buy it.”
“Boss, do you prefer white or brown liquor?” Cao Jianhui grinned as he asked Luo Ziling, “Let’s not have beer, okay? It’s cold and drinking that stuff is bad for the health.”

“No drinking,” Luo Ziling flatly refused, “I don’t feel like drinking today.”
“How can we have a midnight snack without alcohol?” Fang Qianqian complained, “Then let’s just have some beer. Cao Jianhui, go order us a case of beer.”
“Roger that,” Cao Jianhui immediately agreed and dashed out of the private room to fetch the beer from the waiter.
Just as Cao Jianhui was instructing the waiter to bring in a case of beer, Luo Ziling’s phone rang.
Seeing it was Yang Qingye who was calling, he quickly got up and left the private room to answer the call.
“Brother-in-law, where are you? I need you for something,” Yang Qingye’s voice sounded urgent, “I’m right outside your school gate. Are you in your dorm?”
“I’m not in the dorm,” Luo Ziling frowned, “I’m out having a late snack with some classmates.”
“Where? I’ll come to you. I need to talk, it’s important and not suitable over the phone.”
“I’m at Fatty Bone Castle, should I come out…”
Before Luo Ziling could finish, Yang Qingye said “I’m right nearby” and hung up the phone.
Luo Ziling was speechless and had no choice but to wait outside for Yang Qingye.
“Boss, why don’t you come in?” As Luo Ziling put his phone back in his pocket, Cao Jianhui walked out of the private room, looking puzzled, and said, “If you don’t show up soon, the two beauties inside will have complaints. Come on in.”
“Someone’s coming to see me, I’ll wait here for a bit. You guys go ahead and eat.”
“Alright then,” hearing Luo Ziling say this, Cao Jianhui went back into the private room.
But he did not close the door completely; he wanted to see who was looking for Luo Ziling.
Before long, Luo Ziling saw Yang Qingye appear at the end of the corridor.
After looking around, Yang Qingye also swiftly spotted Luo Ziling and hurried over.
“Brother-in-law,” he panted as he ran up to Luo Ziling, speaking anxiously, “Just now my sister told me something…” He stopped speaking halfway because he saw two women poking their heads out of the private room, and they were both people he knew.
Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao had been sitting inside for a while, and had already opened their beers, but Luo Ziling had not come back. They heard from Cao Jianhui that he was waiting for someone.
Feeling a bit annoyed, they were curious to see if it was another woman who had come over, so when they heard voices outside, they opened the door to check. Upon seeing Yang Qingye standing with Luo Ziling, both of their expressions changed.
Fang Qianqian knew from her brother Fang Dongxun that Luo Ziling was in a relationship with Yang Qingyin, so she wasn’t surprised that Luo Ziling and Yang Qingye knew each other. But seeing Yang Qingye with Luo Ziling all of a sudden, she was still very surprised.
Chen Xiaoxiao didn’t know about the relationship between Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin, and since she had actively pursued Yang Qingye, who was an old wound in her heart, she was absolutely astonished to see him with Luo Ziling, to the point that she was momentarily at a loss.
It was Yang Qingye who regained his composure first, asking Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao with slight awkwardness, “Qianqian, Xiao Xiao, what brings you here?”
“We’re having late-night snacks with Ziling, along with some of his classmates,” Fang Qianqian, regaining her composure before Chen Xiaoxiao, smiled and replied, “Are you here to join the fun?”
“No,” Yang Qingye shook his head, “I came to find my sister… to discuss something with Ziling.”
He was used to calling him “brother-in-law,” but almost let it slip in front of the two women. Thankfully, he caught himself just in time, swallowing the word “in-law” back down.
“You know each other?” Chen Xiaoxiao appeared very surprised, standing quite naturally next to Yang Qingye as she spoke. After all, he was someone she had once actively pursued, and although Yang Qingye avoided her, her feelings towards him were still different.
“Qingye is Ziling’s uncle,” Fang Qianqian said with a dismissive curl of her lip, “Our Mr. Luo has already won his beauty. He’s managed to win over Yang Qingyin.”
“What?!” Chen Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but be dumbfounded, looking in disbelief first at Luo Ziling, then at Yang Qingye.
Both Chen Xiaoxiao and Fang Qianqian wore odd expressions, the faces of the two beautiful women filled with an indescribable look.
Luo Ziling felt quite embarrassed, and Yang Qingye was almost the same.
However, Yang Qingye had thicker skin than Luo Ziling, and he immediately chuckled and admitted it, “Yeah, Ziling is my brother-in-law. I came to him today because there’s something important to discuss.”
“So that’s the case,” Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Luo Ziling and then at Yang Qingye with a meaningful smirk emerging at the corner of her mouth.
Neither Luo Ziling nor Yang Qingye had expected that their chance meeting with Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao today would cause them trouble. Often, women are not to be offended, especially those who harbor undue desires for you, a conclusion they would come to later on.
