Chapter 28

Since Lu Yao's identity was exposed, his popularity has soared.

After school on Friday, in the classroom.

Lu Yao took out a large stack of love letters from his desk, neatly folded them, and placed them into his backpack.

When Jiang Bai saw this, his lips tightened slightly, but he quickly concealed his emotions.

He approached Lu Yao, his gaze and tone softening. "Let's go. Remember the departmental dinner we planned?"

Lu Yao: "..." It could be called a date instead of a departmental dinner, considering it's just the two of them.

Lu Yao had joined the Flower and Grass Club for a while now. A few days ago, Jiang Bai, under the pretext of a club event, proposed having a departmental dinner. They agreed on today, Friday after school.

The private room Jiang Bai reserved was at a high-end seafood restaurant near the school. Many school clubs chose this place for their gatherings.

Since the restaurant was close to the school, the two decided to walk there.

Thinking about what he had just seen, Jiang Bai lowered his eyes and subtly asked, "I saw you putting those love letters into your bag earlier. Planning to read them at home?"

Lu Yao: "No, just taking them home to handle. Since I don't plan to accept them, it might be more appropriate not to open them here."

Hearing that Lu Yao was just taking them home to deal with, Jiang Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He smiled. "Do you usually handle love letters this way at home?"

Lu Yao: "Yes. If handled at school, it might be awkward if the girl accidentally sees them."

Even though Lu Yao had no intention of accepting them, he still respected their feelings.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Bai's smile deepened, and the frown he had earlier completely relaxed.

Lu Yao was still as gentle as ever. Despite his usual cold demeanor, if observed closely, one could always sense his thoughtfulness and kindness in the little details.

In no time, they arrived at the restaurant's entrance.

Seeing Jiang Bai and Lu Yao arrive, the waiter greeted them warmly, "Hello, are you the two who made the reservation?"

Jiang Bai: "Yes, we are the ones. The reservation is for the Tingyu Pavilion."

Waiter: "Alright, please come with me to the front desk to confirm the reservation."

After opening the restaurant's backend reservation page on the computer, the waiter showed a look of hesitation.

Why are there two parties who booked the Tingyu Pavilion for the same time slot?

At that moment, there was a commotion at the restaurant entrance.

Lu Yao turned around and saw the basketball club and cheerleading squad.

Seeing Lu Yao, Lu Qi walked over in surprise, "Aren't you supposed to be going home? Why are you here with him?"

Lu Yao: "Club gathering."

Lu Qi laughed out loud, "Just the two of you? How is that a gathering? Don't you guys understand what the term means?"

Jiang Bai smirked, "Classmate Lu Qi, if I may speak bluntly, it seems that someone who often fails Chinese exams isn't really in a position to question others' language skills."
