Ye Ming adopted a look of deep sorrow, as if to say, "You are heartless, cold, and unreasonable," directed at Wu Rong.
Wu Rong rolled his eyes in response and turned to grasp Rao Jie’s hand. “Don’t waste time with him; let’s go,” he said.
Immediately, Ye Ming blocked their path. “Hey, Wu Rong, about what I just told you…”
Wu Rong frowned and replied, “Didn’t I say I have something to do?”
Ye Ming glanced at Rao Jie and continued, “I know you’re going on a date with Rao Jie, but isn’t it fine to meet up with old classmates? Introducing your girlfriend to your high school friends is an important ritual. It shows recognition of her in your life.”
Wu Rong looked puzzled. “I don’t want to associate with them; why waste Rao Jie’s time meeting them? Don’t delay our date.” With that, he attempted to pull Rao Jie away.
Just as Ye Ming was about to explode with frustration, Rao Jie finally spoke up for him. “Well, it’s a rare class reunion; it wouldn’t hurt to take a look. After all, many memories from high school are precious.”
Wu Rong shot her a strange glance and hesitated for a moment before firmly stating, “No way. We already made plans; you were the one complaining about not having enough dates. Besides, the restaurant is booked—it’s your favorite place. Let’s not worry about them.” He then pulled Rao Jie away.
Ye Ming tried to call out but ultimately gave up.
After Wu Rong and Rao Jie left, she couldn’t help but ask, “Is it that you didn’t want me to go to the reunion because you have no feelings for your high school classmates and think it’s a waste of time?”
Wu Rong nodded as he drove. “What? Are you that concerned?”
Rao Jie shook her head. “I also think it’s unnecessary to waste time on people you don’t care about, but I thought of something.”
“What is it?”
Rao Jie asked, “But I have good relationships with my high school friends. Would you be willing to go with me next time?”
Wu Rong was taken aback for a moment before awkwardly replying, “If you want to take them along, then go ahead.”
Rao Jie smiled and decided not to pursue the topic further. However, Wu Rong felt an odd sensation when she mentioned wanting to introduce him to her close high school friends. Was this what Ye Ming had meant?
As Wu Rong pondered this strange feeling, he suddenly noticed Rao Jie staring at him intently. Confused, he asked, “What’s wrong? Do I look strange?”
Rao Jie looked at him and found his handsome appearance refreshing her impression of him in her mind.
"Do we really need to dress up so formally just to go out for dinner and a movie? If someone didn't know any better, they might think you're heading to some fancy banquet! You look so handsome, it's putting pressure on me," Rao Jie said.
Wu Rong replied confidently, "This is our date, of course it deserves some attention. I want to make you unable to take your eyes off me."
Rao Jie was momentarily speechless, glancing down at her simple outfit, feeling a wave of guilt wash over her. "You should have reminded me! Now I look like I don't care at all."
Wu Rong smiled and said, "That's perfect."
Rao Jie felt a surge of warmth in her heart. Was Wu Rong complimenting her? Was he saying she looked the best like this?
Wu Rong happily explained, "Dressing like this means you won't stand out at all, which is exactly why other men will overlook you."
Rao Jie: ...
After finishing their dinner, the two of them planned to head to a nearby mall to find a movie theater.
