Yan Rubing was still a junior student, twenty-one years old, about the same age as Zhao Yunhai, though Zhao Yunhai graduated a little earlier.
Yan Rubing, like her name suggested, was cold as ice. However, she cherished her emotions deeply. Because of her aloof demeanor, she had very few true friends.
Her only friend, her best friend Mu Xiaoyu, had asked her out. She was on her way to meet her and wouldn't waste time here.
At this moment, Yan Rubing didn't know that her best friend Mu Xiaoyu was facing harassment from a playboy.
The playboy, with a silly grin, raised his phone and took a photo of her, then posted it in a group chat.
[Not Interested in Foreign Beauties: Guess what I found? (Beautiful Woman.jpg)]
[I Smoke Loneliness: ???]
[Lonely Cao Thief: ???]
[Young Master Zhao: ???]
[I Send 900 Billion Daily: ???, could tonight be a night for hunting? My mom is home, I can't come out (Wailing.jpg)]
[Young Master Zhao: My mom is asleep, I sneaked out (Stealthy smile.jpg)]
[I Smoke Loneliness: My mom is still playing mahjong and has no time to care about me (Roaring with laughter.jpg)]
[Lonely Cao Thief: My dad's Seven Wolves cigarettes are all smoked up and I haven't bought new ones, so I have to come out and accompany Young Master Zhao, no matter what (Tsundere.jpg)]
Everyone in the group chat spoke so nicely, each a talent in their own right. Zhao Yunhai smiled knowingly and put his phone aside.
However, he felt something was off. Why were the women he encountered tonight of such high quality? And one encountered by him, another by that pervert.
He felt a sense of déjà vu, as if he had read something similar in a novel.
Could it be that he was going to encounter the protagonist again on this outing?
Zhao Yunhai couldn't help but feel excited. Even women couldn't make him this excited; only the protagonist could.
Every appearance of the protagonist made his abilities stronger each time.
So, how far he could go depended entirely on how strong the protagonist was.
If the protagonist appeared often, Zhao Yunhai would not be afraid; he would only become more excited.
Zhao Yunhai saw the car in front stop at a milk tea shop. He turned to Yang Hui, who had been silent, and asked, "Want some milk tea?"
Although he asked, Zhao Yunhai had already unbuckled his seatbelt.
Yang Hui looked thoughtfully at the ice-cold beauty walking out, "I'll go with you."
Zhao Yunhai walked out directly, "Since you're coming with me, keep up. Don't get lost."
"I know," Yang Hui said. Seeing Zhao Yunhai agree, she lowered her head and a smile bloomed on her face as she walked out, her heart filled with sweetness.
She didn't know why, but seeing him agree inexplicably made her happy.
Yang Hui didn't feel love at first sight for Zhao Yunhai. It was more of a slow-burning affection.
Because her initial intention was to consider Zhao Yunhai as her future husband, she naturally cared about his attitude towards her.
No woman would not care about whether her man cared about her.
Inside the milk tea shop, Mu Xiaoyu looked extremely impatient. The man beside her had been bothering her since the beginning and hadn't left.
But she had also run into her best friend here. She was so angry she didn't even want to take out her phone.
Taking out her phone would mean giving the man a chance to get her WeChat ID.
This was the first time Mu Xiaoyu had encountered such a shameless man.
"Rubing, over here."
Mu Xiaoyu finally saw her best friend arrive and quickly got up and ran towards her, thus escaping the man's harassment.
"He's harassing you?" Yan Rubing's icy expression instantly dropped by another ten degrees, her eyes radiating a chilling cold.
Mu Xiaoyu preferred to avoid trouble, so she said lazily,
"Forget it. Let's finish our milk tea and then go eat."
"I discovered a delicious hot pot place yesterday and specifically asked you to come with me today."
But Yan Rubing wouldn't let it go. This was her only friend, and she couldn't stand seeing her friend being bullied.
Yan Rubing walked directly over, slammed her hand on the table, and said angrily, "Apologize to my friend."
"Oh, another ice mountain beauty."
Gu Yunting looked up, his eyes lighting up. He wondered how this ice mountain beauty compared to Young Master Zhao's ice mountain beauty.
Too bad he didn't get the woman's WeChat ID just now. He should go meet up with Young Master Zhao.
Gu Yunting sighed with some regret. No matter how good a woman was, she wasn't as important as Young Master Zhao's gathering. He could only try to find out her information afterward.
Seeing that he ignored her, Yan Rubing felt her face lose all color, especially in front of her best friend. Her tone became extremely cold, "If you don't apologize, you will regret it."
Gu Yunting made a tutting sound. He was least afraid of revenge. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Young Master Zhao enter with a woman.
"Huh? Young Master Zhao, why are you here?"
Gu Yunting immediately stopped paying attention to Yan Rubing and stood up to greet Young Master Zhao.
"She wanted to have some milk tea, so we came,"
Zhao Yunhai pointed at Yang Hui beside him, giving himself a perfect excuse. Yang Hui nodded cooperatively.
"Who is this?" Seeing Zhao Shao's unusual attitude towards this woman, Gu Yunting refrained from his usual flippant remarks and directly asked.
"My mother introduced her. She's the legitimate daughter of the Yang family," Zhao Yunhai introduced briefly.
"Sister-in-law," Gu Yunting called out cooperatively.
A woman introduced by Aunt Qin, and Young Master Zhao personally brought her around. It was highly likely that this one was settled.
"Hello, I'm Yang Hui," Yang Hui replied with a nod. Seeing that Zhao Yunhai didn't object, she felt very satisfied.
"Birds of a feather flock together. You're all cut from the same cloth."
Yan Rubing saw that the man who had just harassed her and the man who had harassed her best friend knew each other, her expression turned even worse.
"Alright, let's go quickly," Mu Xiaoyu pulled Yan Rubing's arm, wanting to leave this place of trouble.
"What are you afraid of? The more you're afraid, the more they'll push their luck," Yan Rubing wasn't afraid of these people. Instead, she worried that her best friend would be pestered later.
Especially the license plate of the luxury car parked outside, which not just anyone could obtain.
If she remembered correctly, that license plate belonged to the Gu family in Yanjing.
Yang Fan, on the other hand, sat at the next table watching the show. As long as the person he was protecting was fine, he didn't care about anything else.
His master was really something, finding him work for no reason. Now he had to be a personal bodyguard for the campus belle.
"I'll have a cup of this, less sugar, warm, please,"
Zhao Yunhai briefly instructed the staff, then turned to Yan Rubing and teased her.
"Hey, ice mountain girl, what a coincidence, we meet again."
Zhao Yunhai's gaze then shifted to the man sitting at the next table. Yang Fan's gaze also met his.
The villain and the protagonist make eye contact.
