He took a sip, and slightly bowed his head at everyone before sitting down.

Zhou Shuang felt so awkward, so she tried to remove the ring but to no avail.

Lu Yinan casually extended his hand to grab Zhou Shuang's hand. He blinked and softly quipped, "You're not a pretentious person, so stop trying to remove the ring. It looks nice on you."

He curled his lips into an alluring smile.

That smile was enough to sweep ladies off their feet.

Zhou Shuang was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide under the table.

Yan Rusheng settled comfortably against his chair as he glanced at Zhou Shuang. "This is the first time I've seen a hooligan getting bashful," exclaimed Yan Rusheng.

No one knew if he was complimenting or mocking her.

Zhou Shuang, who was too bashful to respond, angrily eyed Yan Rusheng when she heard him. "Yan Rusheng, even if you don't talk, no one will think you're mute."

Yan Rusheng ignored her and began to eat his food leisurely.

Su Yue had already eaten her fill as everyone began to tuck in. She decided to text Ming Ansheng.

'I've already helped Lu Yinan to put the ring on Sister Hooligan's finger. Where is the reward?'

This news startled Ming Ansheng, and he typed, 'Lu Yinan proposed to Zhou Shuang?!'

Su Yue replied, 'Yup. Lu Yinan proposed with an apple-shaped diamond ring. It's quite romantic.'

'Zhou Shuang put on the ring?!' Ming Ansheng wore an incredulous smile as he typed.

'Yeah, all thanks to me.' Su Yue showed him evidence by snapping a photo of Zhou Shuang's hand.

She turned on the camera function and pretended to snap photos of the food. She swiftly snapped a photo of Zhou Shuang as she raised her glass.

After she sent the photo to Ming Ansheng, she sent him a text. 'You promised to give me a surprise to reward me if I help Lu Yinan.'

Ming Ansheng replied, 'I'll give you at night.'

Su Yue didn't sound too enthusiastic. 'Tch. It must be a red packet.'

'Hurry up and finish your food. Be good.'

After reading Ming Ansheng's reply, she felt empty and sad. She didn't feel like responding.

She surveyed the entire restaurant before glancing outside. Everyone seemed to be in a celebratory mood in Country M as it was Christmas.

Couples were everywhere on the streets, and there were two at her table.

She began to regret her decision to come to Country M. She should be in the capital city, celebrating Christmas with Uncle Ming.

Xuxu noticed that Su Yue had entered a reverie and it had her pouting. She had a shrewd hunch she was thinking of someone.

After observing her for a while, she spoke, "Yueyue, what is on your mind?"

"Nothing." Su Yue shook her head and smiled pensively. "I'm full."

She bent her head and quietly peered at her hands.

Xuxu raised her eyebrows, and she smiled helplessly to herself. "Let's go to Zhou Shuang's place after this."

Yan Rusheng said, "Let's send the luggage to the hotel first."

Zhou Shuang furrowed her eyebrows disapprovingly. "Why are you staying at a hotel? You have to stay at my place."

She glanced at Xuxu and quipped, "Didn't you agree to stay at my place?"

Yan Rusheng cut across before Xuxu could reply. "It's inconvenient."

Zhou Shuang gritted her teeth as she replied, "You can stay at the hotel by yourself."

Yan Rusheng replied determinedly, "No way."
