On the other hand, the initiator Ye Lingchen seized the opportunity to pull Zhang Yunxi away from the crowd during the chaos.

"Thank you, Ye Lingchen." Zhang Yunxi could not help saying as she looked at Ye Lingchen calmly on the road.

Had it not been Ye Lingchen's help today, she could not even begin to imagine how the day would turn out in the end.

"Why do you have to be so courteous to me. You've been great to me when we were young by frequently tutoring me," said Ye Lingchen smilingly.

Zhang Yunxi smiled and said curiously, "Since when have you gotten to know so many things? That's impressive."

"There are still many other things that I know. I guess you can say that I know everything in heaven above and the earth underneath," said Ye Lingchen in a feigned arrogant manner.

Zhang Yunxi covered her mouth to conceal her chuckle. "Why don't I buy you lunch in appreciation of your help today."

"Sure." Ye Lingchen did not have a reason to reject a beautiful woman's lunch treat.

Both of them walked by the roadside quietly comparable a couple with neither of them suggesting to hail a taxi. Ye Lingchen peeked at Zhang Yunxi. Under the radiant sunlight, he could see the fine hair on her face. She was so exquisite it made his heart leap.

They arrived at New City Plaza where there were many good-looking boys and pretty girls dressed in school uniforms strolling about. They chatted and laughed with one another which formed a beautiful scenic spot.

All sorts of restaurants that sold steak, seafood, barbeque and western cuisines could be found in this plaza. However, the price points was not low. Ye Lingchen suddenly remembered about Zhang Yunxi's family background. He could not stop himself from saying, "Yunxi, it has been a long time since we've last met each other. Why don't I buy you a meal instead."

"Why, are you underestimating me?" Zhang Yunxi scoffed. "Don't worry. I do work part-time jobs occasionally. I still have some savings so I can afford to buy you a meal anyhow."

"Since that is the case, then I'll help myself to your treat." Ye Lingchen did not insist on treating the meal. Then, he said, "I know that there's this rather nice noodle house that serves good noodles. Why don't we go and have our meal there."

Zhang Yunxi appeared to be slightly hesitant.

"Let alone noodles, I bet that even the water tastes sweet for me just because I get to enjoy it with a beautiful woman like you. It's decided then," said Ye Lingchen hastily before he led the way to the inside of the plaza.

Zhang Yunxi blushed from shyness. She glared at Ye Lingchen for a moment before she followed.

Ye Lingchen looked at the beautiful girl sitting opposite him as he feasted on his noodles. He had a good appetite so he finished the bowl of noodles in a short while, not even leaving behind a single drop of soup. He licked his lips and recollected the pleasant flavor of the noodles.

"Hey, Yunxi. You're here."

A voice that sounded like it belonged to a misfit jolted Ye Lingchen from his recollection back to reality. A modern-looking woman dressed in a red dress stood on the outside of the window. Soon afterward, she walked into the noodle house in long strides.

She had thick makeup on her face and she was fully adorned in fancy jewelry. She walked with her slender waist swaying side to side like a snake woman. She exuded an irresistible temptation from every single part of her body. She was both mature yet sexy.

Zhang Yunxi was like an unripe apple while this woman was already so fully ripened that juice could be squeezed out of her.

The people that were originally eating noodles in the shop became distracted at once, watching her in a daze.
