Over the next few days, Lin Huahao's attempts to contact Yan LeLe gradually decreased.

Yan Luole is in a bad mood every day in her dormitory, and several of her female roommates occasionally give her advice.

"La La, do you think Li Shao might have someone else he likes? What has he told you? Did he ever ask you to be his girlfriend?"

"He praised me for being cute, saying that he's always happy to be with me..." Yan Lele tried her best to recall the compliments Li Huaihao had given her.

If Lin Huahuo doesn't like himself, how could he say such things?

If you like me, why don't you come find me?

She was filled with conflicting emotions and found herself inexplicably recalling what Ye Ziyān had said before.

Ye Ziyan said that Lin Huahuo looked a bit strange and it was best not to get close.

If Lin Huahuo really has something wrong, how does Ye Ziyān know?

Or, is Ye Ziyan deliberately saying this to distance herself from Lin Huahao and create an opportunity to get closer to him?

Now, Yan Lele looks at everyone with suspicion, always fearing that someone will steal the person she likes.

This is also related to her growth environment. Although she was an only child, her parents didn't live together since she was young. They weren't divorced, but their relationship wasn't much different from one. There was only a name left between husband and wife, no feelings at all.

She was used to seeing her father walk into various social events with other women. She even heard the housemaid whispering behind her back, saying that her father had another son outside and that their family fortune might not all be left to her...

Yan LeLe has been very likeable since she was a child, especially to her father.

She tried her best to gain attention and likes, all in an attempt to fill the deep void of insecurity she felt inside.

She didn't want to end up like her mother, unable to hold onto a man and spending her life in self-pity, wasting away.

She sets her mind on something, she'll get it no matter what!

"Le Le, you... what's wrong with you?" Seeing Yan Le Le's face was not quite right, the girl was taken aback.

That expression was truly terrifying, so different from Yan Lele's usual self. It was as if she were a completely different person.

The young lady felt a little embarrassed. She had only casually chatted with Yan Lele a few times, so what was she getting upset about?

Yan Lele quickly regained her composure, masking the fleeting shadow in her eyes: "N-no...nothing. I was thinking, maybe I should ask Shao Li out myself."

Although girls shouldn't be too forward, sometimes being too passive can also lead to missed opportunities.

"Well, that's good. If there are any misunderstandings, just say them to his face. If he doesn't like you, then you don't have to waste any more time either." The girl nodded.

Saying that, he also recommended a restaurant nearby to Yánlèlè.

This French restaurant has a floral theme. I used to go there often. Although the food is average, the environment is very good. There are several private rooms in the garden, semi-open-air. In the evening, the breeze blows gently, and a violin plays nearby. It's incredibly romantic... I know someone there who can help you book a room. If you don't know anyone, you might have to wait until next year.

"That's great, thank you so much." Yan Lele put on a polite smile.

After booking the private room, she gave Li Huahu a call.

Lin Huhao seemed to be busy with something and took a while to answer the phone: "Hello, who is it?"

Yan LeLe’s face stiffened, she coughed lightly: “Young Master Li, it’s me, Yan LeLe.”

"Yan LeLe?" Lin HuaHao seemed to think for a moment before remembering her, "Oh, it's you. What's the matter?"

"You see, that day you didn't give me the bag I had ordered, right? I want to treat you to a meal, just the two of us, to thank you for your generosity." Yán Lele said.

Lin Huahao fell silent for a few seconds, his tone relaxed and ordinary, showing no hint of displeasure: "Okay, when?"

"How about tonight? Are you free, Shao Li?" Yan LeLe asked.

"Of course I'm free," Li Huahao agreed, "Just tell me the address."

After hanging up the phone, Yan Lele's heart skipped a beat with excitement.

She sent the time and location to Li Huahuo via text message. She received his reply shortly after: "Okay, I'll be there on time."

"Well, did Miss Lin agree?" the young lady asked.

"Well, I agree!" Yan Lele nodded, "I knew he wouldn't refuse!"

Meanwhile, on the other side.

After replying to the text message, Li Huahao's face grew impatient.

He could see through this little girl's act at a glance. The only reason he was willing to accompany this Yan Lele was to use her to get closer to Ye Ziyan.

He heard that Yan Lele and Ye Ziyān were very good friends.

Judging from the current situation, the relationship between the two people is probably not as close as outsiders say. If he had invited Yan Lele and her girlfriends to dinner so many times, why didn't she ever bring Ye Ziyan?

"Cousin, Yan Lele is pretty. Are you interested in her?" Song Yang asked.

Song Yang didn't get into a good university, and he didn't want to study abroad, so he stayed. Now he is an intern at Li Huahao's company.

Claiming to be an intern, he had a big attitude. Everyone in the company, from top to bottom, knew that he was the nephew of CEO Lin Huahuo, and no one dared to treat him disrespectfully.

Lin Huahuo sneered, "What kind of woman is this? How could I possibly look up to her?"

Song Yang scratched his head in confusion: "Wait, Brother, didn't you tell her what you wanted?"

"You don't need to know these things," Li Huahuo was too lazy to explain to him, "By the way, does Ye Ziyan have any other close girlfriends?"

"I do have a close friend, but after we went to university, we all went our separate ways. Not many stayed in Long City... By the way, do her two girlfriends count? One is called Yun Qingxi and the other is He Tiantian. They are Ye Ziyue and Ye Zirui's girlfriends." Song Yang said.

"Yun Qingxi? He Tiantian?" Li Huahao repeated the two names.

He knew the identities of these two people, but he hadn't met them much.

"I heard she's really close with those two, like sisters. Her family even treats them like daughters." Song Yang poured everything he knew into explaining to Li Huahao.

Lin Huahuo nodded. "I understand. Tell someone to find out where these two people are now."

"As for He Tiantian, I don't know. That Yun Qingxi, I remember she might also be at Longcheng University, just not in the same district as Ye Ziyuan." Song Yang said.

After joining the company, his cousin gave him his first task: to figure out the relationships among these people at Ye Jia. He got Yun Qingxi's information and saw her photo. He was deeply impressed by this stunning woman.

Before, when he was trying to pick up girls at Longcheng University, he had accidentally seen Yun Qingxi. He asked around and found out that Yun Qingxi had also been admitted to that university.
