Tang Xiao Niu.

What are you calling me for? Your best friendship had already expired. If you wish to renew it, bring me a glass of juice first.

Su Rui: Miss Tang, its only two or three metres away from the restaurant. You can get it yourself with your long elegant legs, ok?

Orange juice? Watermelon juice? Coconut juice? Or grape juice?

Orange juice, thank you~.

Alright, what did you want to tell me? Tang Xiao asked as she drank her orange juice looking at Su Rui.

Let me ask you a question. After a pause, Su Rui added, If I want to know about my boy, er, romantic partners relationship history, what do you think is the best way to do it.

Relationship history? Tang Xiao was stunned and suddenly reacted with eyes full of brilliance towards Su Rui.

Haha, Su Xiao Rui, you are so capable! You even said you didnt mind! This girl even started to care about his relationship history!

Who said I didnt care? I mean I wasnt worried, ok? Worried and minding it are two different matters. Su Rui glanced at Tang Xiao and said leisurely.

Heh heh, that means you do mind it!

Who do you care about? Tang Xiao batted her eyelashes and looked at Su Rui teasingly as she asked.

Come on.

If theres anything you want to know, just ask Gu Yu Cheng directly.

How many people has he gone on a blind date with? How many were successful? Su Rui suddenly asked.

Why are you asking this? As Tang Xiao listened to what Su Rui was going to ask, her whole person didnt feel right.

So, Su Rui raised her eyebrows and continued, do you think if I ask Gu Yu Cheng this way, he would feel comfortable enough to tell me?

It seems like he wouldnt. Then, you should ask his friends and family members about it.

It would be better to ask Gu Yu Cheng directly.

Go ahead.

Su Rui: Im afraid this plastic friendship doesnt need to be renewed.

No, I am a young maiden[1]

Speak in a human language.

I havent dated before, how would I know how to ask this question? Tang Xiao said this while having an I dont know what to do, Im also very helpless expression.

That seems to be true.

Su Rui glanced at Tang Xiao disdainfully and nodded in agreement.

In the evening, after the banquet, she returned home.

Su Rui received a message from Gu Yu Cheng when she returned to her room after explaining what was going on between Gu Yu Cheng and herself to her parents.

[Gu Yu Cheng]: Have you reached home?

[Su Xiao Rui]: Im home.

[Su Xiao Rui]: How about you? Are you busy?

[Gu Yu Cheng]: No.

Seeing Gu Yu Chengs message, Su Rui was about to call him, but he already called.

Good evening, Su Rui greeted.

Once this was uttered, Gu Yu Cheng seemed to chuckle and responded, Good evening.

How was the banquet? Gu Yu Cheng asked.

Not bad. I heard an unbelievable gossip.

Gu Yu Cheng.

Hm?

May I ask you a question? Su Ruis tone became quite solemn.

What is it? After a pause, Gu Yu Cheng said, Go ahead.

Have you thought about where we are going tomorrow? Su Rui asked.

As for the real question that she wanted to ask, even though Su Rui was very curious, she still held herself back.

Hearing Su Ruis question, Gu Yu Cheng paused for two seconds.

The cinema? Gu Yu Cheng asked.

What movies are showing recently?

I dont know. Amusement park?

The memory of the original owner was still in Su Ruis head. To be honest, she was slightly traumatized by amusement parks.

The park? As Gu Yu Cheng didnt hear a response from Su Rui, he asked again and his tone seemed to contain a trace of apprehension.

It looks like it will rain tomorrow.

Then, we can go shopping?

Pft Su Rui finally couldnt hold back and laughed.

Why does it feel like the options Gu Yu Cheng suggested seemed to be from the same strategy article she read before?

Wont you feel bored if we were to go shopping? Su Rui laughed and questioned.

Indeed, it is boring.

Gu Yu Cheng muttered inwardly. Immediately, hesitation flashed from the bottom of his eyes.

What about you? Would you feel bored? Gu Yu Cheng asked.

Me? No. Su Rui chuckled and responded.

Shopping, spending money stimulates dopamine secretion. For women, this theory forever holds.

What do you like to shop for?

I dont have a fixed preference. Sometimes I like clothes and bags, sometimes its small items. I can also buy nothing and wander aimlessly Su Rui thought and said.

Both of them talked for quite a bit.

Then, it suddenly occurred to Su Rui that they were off-topic.

Gu Yu Cheng.

Rui Rui, you havent slept yet? Su Rui was stunned when she heard a sound behind her.

Ill head to bed soon. Looking at Liu Yue coming in, Su Rui responded.

Mum, whats the matter?

Oh. Come, Mum poured you a glass of milk. You can drink it before going to bed. It aids with sleep. as she said this Liu Yue calmly passed the cup of milk to Su Rui. She took a few glimpses at Su Ruis mobile phone screen.

Su Rui:

She highly suspects that the primary purpose of Madam Liu Yue was to find out who was on the other line.

Otherwise, isnt this glass of milk too slipshod? It wasnt even heated up and it was obviously poured out directly from the refrigerator.
