The two of them arrived at the restaurant where they were eating and ordered a full table of dishes. It had been a long time since they had tried drinking cold beer and eating some spicy hot pot.

The hot pot in the middle was steaming, and the two clinked glasses and took a long sip comfortably.

"I really miss hot pot!" Yang Yuanyuan exhaled, "I've been out for so long, and what I miss most is Chinese food."

"You can eat more in the future!" Ruan Ruan served Yang Yuanyuan some food, which was Yang Yuanyuan's favorite shrimp slippery dish.

"Tell me how you are doing lately?" Yang Yuanyuan pulled Ruan Ruan and asked curiously. She blinked her eyes, as if she was hinting at something.

Ruan Ruan could tell at a glance what Yang Yuanyuan wanted to ask, and it was nothing more than about Bo Simu.

"The relationship between Bo Simu and me has eased a little. He stopped suppressing the Ruan family and has not taken any action for the time being. I can also breathe a sigh of relief." Ruan Ruan sighed helplessly.

Recalling what happened that year, Yang Yuanyuan still felt very sad. She once believed in love because of Ruan Ruan and Bo Simu, but later she didn't believe in love because of them.

"He is really cruel. It was obviously difficult for you back then, but he really doesn't understand you at all and only treats you as an enemy!" Yang Yuanyuan defended Ruan Ruan.

When Ruan Ruan was suppressed in those years, Yang Yuanyuan helped her several times in private, but Ruan Ruan refused, fearing that it would harm the Yang family.

When Bo Simu goes crazy, it will definitely not make people feel better, and he will also suppress everyone involved.

"Forget it, it's all over." Ruan Ruan shook his head.

"Fortunately, it's all over. Your new life is about to begin. Don't really have anything to do with Bo Simu in the future. A man like him who is so unstable doesn't know when he will go crazy again."

Yang Yuanyuan said helplessly that she felt even more sorry for Ruan Ruan. The previous hurt was too great for Ruan Ruan.

"Yeah, I'm living a good life now!" Ruan Ruan smiled at Yang Yuanyuan.

"Come and eat a piece of fat beef!" Yang Yuanyuan served Ruan Ruan some vegetables.

Ruan Ruan and Yang Yuanyuan chatted happily. Even if they were separated for a long time, they still had endless topics to talk about, and their enthusiasm did not diminish a bit.

The whole hot pot restaurant is very lively, and the customers who come here to eat hot pot are all laughing and joking.

"Ruan Ruan?" A male voice sounded behind him. Ruan Ruan looked back and met a pair of familiar eyes.

Xu Zhi raised his eyebrows. He watched Ruan Ruan chatting happily with a girl of about the same age. The two of them didn't know what to say.

Xu Zhi was wearing a trendy brand, his hair was casually scratched, and his brow bones showed a trace of laziness.

Opposite Yang Yuanyuan met Xu Zhi's smiling eyes. Her heartbeat slowed down a beat. The second the two looked at each other, it seemed as if the whole world had quieted down.

"Why are you here?" Ruan Ruan stood up with a smile. She looked behind Xu Zhi, "Are you coming here to eat with your friends too?"

"Yes, we came over for dinner right after we finished playing. What about you?" Xu Zhi's eyes looked back and forth at Yang Yuanyuan.

Ruan Ruan turned his head and looked at Yang Yuanyuan, then at Xu Zhi, "This is my good friend, Yang Yuanyuan."

"This is Uncle Xu's son Xu Zhi." Ruan Ruan introduced the two of them to each other, and they exchanged a few simple greetings.

A friend from Xu Zhi called him, so he had to leave first. Before leaving, he looked back at Yang Yuanyuan.

It had been a long time since she had seen the handsome boy she liked. Yang Yuanyuan's cheeks gradually became warm. She wanted to look at Xu Zhi more.

"Is Uncle Xu your father's friend?" Yang Yuanyuan suddenly thought of something.

"Yes, do you remember Uncle Xu?" Ruan Ruan nodded, "Uncle Xu threw Xu Zhi into my company and wanted me to take good care of Xu Zhi."

"Xu Zhi looks really carefree, how is he?" Yang Yuanyuan looked at Ruan Ruan curiously. "Actually, he is pretty good. He just feels a little disobedient, but he is quite reliable in his work."

As soon as Ruan Ruan finished speaking, when he met Yang Yuanyuan's curious eyes, he suddenly thought of something, "Don't tell me, do you two look at each other?"

"What's wrong with seeing each other in the right eye?" Yang Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows and answered unabashedly.

"You actually like people like Xu Zhi?" Ruan Ruan had a hint of surprise on his face.

After knowing her best friend for so many years, Ruan Ruan discovered for the first time that the type of person Yang Yuanyuan liked was Xu Zhi. She never dreamed that people from these two worlds would interact with each other.

"People are different at every stage. Maybe I used to like mature and steady men, but now I like energetic young handsome guys." Yang Yuanyuan shrugged and ate a piece of fat beef.

Hearing what her best friend said, Ruan Ruan thought about it. She supported everything her best friend did.

"You just returned home, so don't worry about anything. It's the first time we've met each other anyway. Maybe you've known Xu Zhi for a long time, so it'll be easier for you to give in." Ruan Ruan said jokingly.

"You're right, I plan to get to know each other well." Yang Yuanyuan's lips curled up.

"Okay, let's eat quickly, we'll go shopping later!"

Ruan Ruan picked up food for Yang Yuanyuan, and the two continued to eat, talk and laugh.

After fixing the hot pot, Ruan Ruan and Yang Yuanyuan stood at the door, holding their mobile phones to call a taxi to a nearby shopping mall, waiting for the driver to drive over.

A big G drove over, and Ruan Ruan looked at the familiar face lowered through the car window.

"Didn't you drive today?" Xu Zhi asked Ruan Ruan with a smile. He smelled a faint smell of alcohol.

"We just drank some beer." Ruan Ruan smiled.

"I'll see you off. Where are you going?" Xu Zhi raised the corners of his mouth slightly and opened the car door enthusiastically.

Ruan Ruan and Yang Yuanyuan looked at each other. They happened to have nothing to do, so it would be nice to have a free driver to pick them up.

"We're going shopping. You can just drop us off at the shopping mall on Financial Street."

Ruan Ruan pulled Yang Yuanyuan into the car together. The two of them sat in the back seat of the car. Xu Zhi quickly started the car and left.

Xu Zhi in front was driving intently, with a thin layer of sweat on his palms. He wanted to speak to Yang Yuanyuan, but couldn't find the right time.

"My good friend just returned to China, do you have any recommendations for new restaurants?" Ruan Ruan asked proactively, giving Xu Zhi a chance to get to know each other.

Yang Yuanyuan showed a look of admiration. She found that Ruan Ruan really assisted.

"Yes, there are too many. I'll send it to you via WeChat later." Xu Zhi said enthusiastically, "My old classmate opened a barbecue restaurant. It's really delicious. It's so popular every time I go there that I have to queue up."

"Really?" Yang Yuanyuan's eyes lit up.

"My friend likes barbecue very much, let's go there next time!" Ruan Ruan agreed immediately, "Can I get a discount if I tell you your name?"

"Okay, I'll just break the bone for you!" Xu Zhi said humorously.

"Pfft..." Yang Yuanyuan couldn't help laughing.

Ruan Ruan found that Yang Yuanyuan and Xu Zhi were really a good match. It might be a good thing if they were together. Anyway, their personalities were quite complementary.

Ruan Ruan and Yang Yuanyuan exchanged glances and smiled.
