"Ah? Hahaha, did I say so much? Hahaha..." Li Liang quickly turned his eyes away, trying to cover up the incident with a hearty laugh. Bai Shutong glanced at him, then said softly: "Actually, you don't have to be like this. If you really have someone you like, just tell me. I can leave at any time. You don't have to worry about Auntie." Li Liang was quite surprised by her words. He originally thought that the other party would be unreasonable. After all, having him as a nominal boyfriend could save him a lot of trouble. In addition, she has always had unconditional financial support from her mother, and she has been living in the house, so there is no reason for her to quit voluntarily. Thinking of this, Li Liang's face felt hot. Perhaps it was because of what happened to Liu Ruyan a few days ago that made him inadvertently form a wrong impression of the girl next to him. So he turned his head to look at Bai Shutong, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I... I had some misunderstandings about you before. Similarly, if you have someone you like, just tell me, and I can end it at any time." "Someone you like..." Bai Shutong heard Li Liang's words and repeated them in his mouth, while looking at him deeply. Thousands of words finally turned into a sigh: "Hey, I have someone I like, but he has forgotten me..."
"Ah? Do you really have someone you like?" Li Liang had only said it casually, but he didn't expect that Bai Shutong really had someone he liked. He felt a little disappointed for no reason, and at the same time, the fire of gossip was instantly ignited. He thought about it, moved closer, and asked in a low voice: "Has he forgotten you? Did he lose his memory in a car accident? How could he forget you when you are so beautiful?" To be able to forget a goddess-level person like Bai Shutong, the man either had a car accident and lost his memory, or the two of them were in an online relationship and had never met each other. "Pfft!" Bai Shutong couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this. It was the first time she heard someone cursing himself. Then she put her hands behind her back, quickened her pace, and said without turning her head: "No, it's just that we haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's go!" Seeing that she didn't seem to want to talk more about this topic, Li Liang tactfully shut his mouth and followed her. He originally planned to hail a taxi on the roadside, but was stopped by Bai Shutong because she felt that she hadn't exercised for a long time and it would be nice to walk like this. Li Liang didn't have any objection. If she wanted to walk, then he would accompany her. There was nothing important to do today anyway, so it would be nice to walk on the street together. The combination of handsome men and beautiful women will attract attention wherever they go in this age where looks are everything. "Look, look, that girl is so pretty!" A short-haired girl pulled her companion and pointed at Bai Shutong and praised her. "Indeed, but it's still a little worse than mine." The girl's companion took a look and finally touched his chin and shook his head. "You? Come on, if you compare yourself to that trash can over there, you're pretty evenly matched..." "Fuck, you're asking for a fight!" Listening to the words of passers-by around him, Li Liang felt a lot of pressure. He vaguely remembered that the last time he attracted so much attention was when he was a child at school and his trouser pocket was pulled... On the other hand, Bai Shutong didn't feel anything strange at all, as if he had become accustomed to the gossip. Li Liang felt inexplicably distressed when he saw her like this. Girls like her have to maintain their image at all times. They will be noticed wherever they go. If they are not careful, they will be criticized, even if the fault is not hers at all. "What are you thinking about?" Bai Shutong tilted his head and looked at Li Liang puzzledly. Li Liang then realized that he was distracted. He shook his head and said nothing.
The two walked to the city center, which is the place with the largest flow of people in Jiangcheng and also the most prosperous place. Just then, Li Liang noticed a long line in front of a newly opened milk tea shop, and his curiosity was immediately piqued. "Shutong, let's go and take a look. There are so many people queuing up. Either the drinks in this store are really delicious, or there are big discounts. Let's go quickly." For Li Liang, who has always been frugal, this kind of low-cost place with activities is simply heaven. If he doesn't pick up money when he goes out, it's considered losing money... He was about to pull Bai Shutong to join the long queue outside the milk tea shop window, but was stopped by a young lady in black work clothes. She looked at the two of them first, then asked with a smile on her face, "Excuse me, are you two a couple?" Li Liang frowned, and just as he was wondering, he caught a glimpse of a sign in front of the store that read: "Couple Challenge!" "Oh, I understand..." Li Liang muttered softly. It seemed that this store was holding an event, and it was related to couples. Then he raised his hand and responded, "Yes, we are a couple. What activities do we have?" Bai Shutong's face turned slightly red when she heard this. Although she knew that Li Liang said this in order to participate in the event, she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart. "Ha, it's this handsome guy. Our store has just opened and we are launching a couple challenge event. There are three levels in total. As long as you succeed in the challenge, you can get a bonus of 500 yuan!" "But if you fail, you have to pay a registration fee of 15 yuan, and you will receive two cups of milk tea as a consolation prize." “There are no restrictions on female students in Nantong either.” Listening to the young lady's words, Li Liang's face showed joy. But what does the last supplement mean? He thought for a moment and asked, "Can I know the content of the level in advance?" But he was rejected: "No, keeping it secret makes it more interesting, right?" After thinking about it, he realized it was true, and then he signed up enthusiastically. Although he was not short of money now, who would complain about having too much money? Later, under the guidance of the staff, Li Liang and Bai Shutong came to the store. At this time, a group of people were already participating in the challenge, and he knew why the man outside emphasized the last sentence. Because at this time there is such a combination among the challengers: Male and female; male and male; female and female; female and male... Wait a minute, what is the combination of female and male? ? He widened his eyes and stared at the group with the largest number of people, and finally noticed the milk tea in the "fish bowl" on the table. “What!?” The corner of Li Liang's mouth twitched. He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. No wonder there is no limit on the number of people who can participate in the challenge. At the beginning, he was worried that if he did this right after the store opened, he would lose money. Now he thinks his worry was completely unnecessary. For a milk tea shop, the first thing that must be related to milk tea is...
Such a big cup of milk tea is required to be finished within one minute, so even if you cut the neck and pour it in, you may not be able to guarantee that it will be finished within one minute. The first level can deceive most people. At this moment, Bai Shutong pulled Li Liang's sleeve and asked: "How about we not participate? We might get poisoned by drinking water..." Li Liang looked down at her and found that although she said she wanted to back out, her eyes were sparkling with eagerness to try. He thought about it and finally shook his head: "I have to participate. I'm here now, so why would I give up halfway? At most, I'll just treat it as spending 15 yuan on milk tea!" Hearing Li Liang's words, Bai Shutong's eyes were filled with more expectation, and at the same time, a strange light flashed across them...
