Chapter 935: Are You Sure You Want Me to Go with You?

She felt that Zheng Zhiyang should agree, even if he acts mature, he’s still young after all.

Just like Ling Tianze said, since he didn’t grow up in that family from a young age, there must be friction and competition among peers.

She guessed that someone must have said something to him, further solidifying his determination to carve out his own path.

After returning to the classroom, Bai Aiwen leaned over, "Xinyan, are you free tomorrow, it’s the weekend?"

Xinyan was fully focused on preparing for the medical school exam, and didn’t look up, "What’s up, just say it."

Bai Aiwen glanced around, lowered his voice, "They’ve introduced me to someone, agreed to meet at the park tomorrow. I’m a bit scared, can you come with me?"

Xinyan understood Bai Aiwen’s words, finally looked up, "Are you sure you want me to go with you?"

Bai Aiwen nodded emphatically, "Yeah, after all, you’re already engaged."

Xinyan rolled her eyes internally, "Sorry, I can’t go with you."

Bai Aiwen didn’t expect Xinyan to refuse, "Why not?"

The reason she wanted Xinyan to come along was firstly to help her assess the situation, and secondly she was a bit scared, having Xinyan with her would calm her nerves.

Xinyan reached out and pinched Bai Aiwen’s face, "You’re silly, precisely because I’m engaged, I can’t go."

Bai Aiwen suddenly laughed, "Are you afraid your fiancé will misunderstand?"

Xinyan flicked her forehead with a finger, "Normally you don’t seem dull, why aren’t you getting it now?"

Bai Aiwen covered her forehead, "I’ve never been dull to begin with."

Xinyan glanced around, "For matchmaking, it’s best to have an elder accompany you. They can help you gauge things without unnecessary trouble."

Bai Aiwen immediately understood what Xinyan meant, laughed and nodded, "Oh, why didn’t I think of that."

At this point, Xinyan reminded her, "Didn’t you say you’d consider dating after graduation, why the change of heart?"

Bai Aiwen closed the book she was holding, "It’s just that everyone came back after the holiday all paired up, I wanted to say goodbye to singlehood too, so when someone introduced me, I thought I’d go see."

Xinyan nodded, "But I’m really too busy lately, and I’m afraid I’ll ruin your matchmaking."

Bai Aiwen understood further, thinking to herself: I was indeed being silly.

Just thinking about having Xinyan’s judgment, she forgot Xinyan is prettier and smarter than her, worried not only would she be eliminated directly, but she might bring troubles for Xinyan too.

Thinking it through, she directly hugged Xinyan, "Thanks for the reminder."

After speaking, she returned to her seat, smiling.

Xinyan watched as she sat down, shook her head and chuckled.

Being asked to accompany someone for matchmaking is something she never agrees to; if the person ends up liking her over the intended date, it’d just bring trouble.

She’s busy every day, truly has no time for that.

However, things just so happened that way; after finishing her tasks that day, nearing dinner time, she passed by a newly opened snack shop near the school, and decided to go in and try something.

Entering the shop, she found a relatively quiet spot to sit, ordered a bowl of noodles and some cold dishes, waiting to satiate her hunger.

While waiting for food, she looked at the straw curtain used for decoration in the shop, thinking: using straw curtains to divide space is indeed a unique idea.

As the noodles came, she was about to grab her chopsticks.

Then she heard a familiar voice through the straw curtain, "The noodles here taste really good."

Xinyan looked up through the straw curtain, saw four people walk in from the doorway, one man and three women, and it turned out the speaker was Bai Aiwen.

The middle-aged woman accompanying her smiled, "Alright, then let’s try it today."

The few chose their spots just on the other side of the straw curtain, for ordinary people, they can vaguely see the people behind, but not clearly.

Xinyan watched them sitting down, thinking, doesn’t this count as indirectly accompanying Bai Aiwen for her matchmaking?

She looked at the scholarly looking man, who seemed steady in speech and action, but his gaze felt a bit off.

Looking again at Bai Aiwen’s shy expression, she might have developed feelings.

Their dishes were served, Xinyan had also finished hers, glanced at her watch, gave Bai Aiwen one last look, and quietly left.
