Chapter 70: The Double-Skin Milk Pudding She Bought

Lin Beixiu glanced at Qin Muxue beside him, who subtly pinched his waist, causing him to display a mask of pain.

Hu Feng did not notice their small movements and continued to enthusiastically invite them to sit down.

“Lin Beixiu, Sister-in-law Bei, please sit down quickly, the dishes are already being served.”

As soon as they arrived, the entire class was finally assembled, followed by the arrival of Li Yuwei, to whom everyone greeted with a “hello teacher.”

Li Yuwei greeted everyone with a smile, saying that outside of school, they could just call her “Sister Wei.”

Then, course after course was served, with juice for the ladies and alcohol for the men.

“Happy birthday, Hu Feng.”

Lin Beixiu presented the gift they had prepared and handed it over.

“Thank you so much, let’s have fun tonight.”

Hu Feng placed the gifts together and called everyone to start.

…

Lin Beixiu eyed the bottles and jars on the table, and couldn’t help but reach for one to drink. Just as he extended his hand, his arm was slapped.

Qin Muxue glared at him disapprovingly, “I’m right here, and you still dare to drink.”

Lin Beixiu sulkily withdrew his hand, “Just a little, in such a lively occasion.”

“No way,” Qin Muxue said unequivocally.

Lin Beixiu dejectedly sat back down, like a salted fish that had lost its dreams, especially as Hu Feng distributed beer, making him itch to have some.

When Hu Feng got to Lin Beixiu, he asked, “Lin Beixiu, can you drink?”

But after asking, he turned his gaze to Qin Muxue.

Lin Beixiu: ……

His lips twitched, really wanting to ask what that meant.

Qin Muxue glanced at Hu Feng and said, “He can’t drink, just bring us two cups of coconut juice.”

“Okay.”

Hu Feng brought over two bottles of coconut juice and placed them in front of them, then walked away, giving Lin Beixiu a helpless look.

Lin Beixiu: …….

Truly speechless.

Soon everyone began chatting, as they were all familiar with each other, and Li Yuwei also joined in the conversation.

After all, the counselor was really good to them, making it feel like a warm little family.

Lin Beixiu looked at Qin Muxue next to him and then asked, “Why are you, a girl, not sitting with the other girls, but running over here?”

“What, you don’t want me to sit here? I’m going to sit here, to supervise you.”

Lin Beixiu irritably drank his coconut juice, feeling annoyed at being managed.

Hu Feng didn’t forget to remind, “Everyone, eat less, we’re going to the KTV next door to sing later.”

The meal was just a prelude, the cake and such were saved for later.

Qin Muxue calmly ate her meal, since Lin Beixiu wasn’t touching alcohol, she had nothing to complain about.

As for why she didn’t sit with the other girls, at least Lin Beixiu and Hu Feng were friends she knew; apart from Lin Beixiu, she didn’t really know any of the girls in the class.

Across the table, Zhang Xuerong looked at the intimate pair with mixed feelings, but since the last incident, no matter how she tried to approach Lin Beixiu, he was always so cold, leaving her no options.

She didn’t know what tactics Qin Muxue used to get close to him.

…

Everyone wasted no food and cleaned up all the dishes.

Afterwards, Hu Feng led the group to the neighboring KTV.

They had initially thought about inviting the counselor too, but Li Yuwei declined, telling them to have fun on their own and to be careful on their way back to campus.

Then everyone arrived at the private room and began to sing.

Lin Beixiu wasn’t very interested, planning to stay in the corner, while Qin Muxue whispered in his ear.

“I’m stepping out for a bit, wait for me.”

Lin Beixiu thought she was going to the restroom and nodded.

Qin Muxue jogged out of the room and headed to the street; she remembered there was a milk tea shop across the street. It was perfect for buying Lin Beixiu a cup of double-skin milk pudding.

Just as Qin Muxue was about to cross, she ran into Yuan Shaojie and his group.

Yuan Shaojie noticed Qin Muxue ahead, his eyes lighting up—this was the beautiful girl he had seen at the hotel, even her profile was attractive.

He hurried up to her, blocking her path.

“Beauty, how about we get to know each other? Add me on WeChat?”

Seeing someone blocking her path, Qin Muxue’s gaze immediately turned icy, her expression impatient.

“Scram.”

Qin Muxue quickly walked away, truly detesting these spoiled brats.

Yuan Shaojie was stunned by her gaze for a moment, watching her retreating back, then came back to his senses, his expression clearly intrigued.

“Ah, a rose with thorns.”

“Brother Yuan, that’s the beauty you saw earlier, indeed not bad.”

Zhang Hao stood inside, watching these people discuss, and remained silent.

“What’s wrong, Zhang Hao, not talking?”

“Nothing.”

He didn’t think Yuan Shaojie had a chance with Qin Muxue, considering the Qin family was not inferior to the Yuan family, and given Qin Muxue’s temperament, it was unlikely.

Qin Muxue, meanwhile, bought a cup of double-skin milk pudding and took a longer route back to the KTV.

Lin Beixiu sat in the corner, and Hu Feng handed him a cup, smelling the familiar aroma, Lin Beixiu smiled.

“You’ve got some conscience, kid.”

“In front of sister-in-law, I dare not, just this little bit.”

Lin Beixiu’s lips twitched, unsure what to say, and waved his hand.

“Just cut the crap.”

Hu Feng smirked and left, also topping up his cup.

Lin Beixiu came to his senses, feeling like Qin Muxue had been gone a long time, put down his cup, and decided to go look for her.

Just as he got up, Qin Muxue pushed the door and came in, sitting next to him.

“Where did you go, why so slow?”

Qin Muxue handed him the double-skin milk pudding she was holding, “Here, for you.”

Because of the harassment by Yuan Shaojie, she was in a bad mood, which cooled down a bit after seeing Lin Beixiu.

Lin Beixiu was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.

“You…”

It turned out what she said was true, to drink double-skin milk pudding instead of alcohol.

She actually remembered and went out to buy him double-skin milk pudding.

“Thank you.” Lin Beixiu scratched his head awkwardly, mainly because…

Qin Muxue watched his clueless expression and burst into laughter.

“Who told me to take care of you? I have to see it through.”

That sounded a bit odd.

“If only you could talk less.”

Qin Muxue turned her head to stare at him, her expression very stern.

“Hmm, what did you say?”

“Nothing.” Lin Beixiu involuntarily shivered and scooted further away.

Qin Muxue stepped on his foot, then turned her head away, ignoring him.

Lin Beixiu chuckled nervously and began to unwrap and eat, also pushing his own cup a bit further away.

Soon everyone started singing, and the table was filled with various snacks.

Lin Beixiu sat in the corner, ate half, and then stopped, considering the long night ahead with plenty to eat.

Qin Muxue took the cup and casually picked up a spoon to finish the double-skin milk pudding Lin Beixiu had left.

“You?!”

Lin Beixiu was truly shocked, wondering if this counted as an indirect kiss between them.
