Also, the dishes he ordered were those that Xiaoxiao liked to eat.

The waiter had been a little worried, but luckily, Xiaoxiao didn't object to this.

"That'll be all." Yin Shaojie closed the menu and gave it back to the waiter.

The waiter left immediately after receiving it.

Yin Shaojie looked at Mu Xiaoxiao. His very handsome face looked amused as he leaned closer to her and reached out to touch her hand.

"Are you jealous? Aren't you going to interrogate me and ask what I was talking to her about?" His dark eyes observed her as he asked.

Mu Xiaoxiao puffed her cheeks out and finally looked at him. "How do you know her? Did you know her before today, or did you just get to know her? Have you dated her before? Don't tell me anything; I don't want to hear what you talked about!" she huffed angrily.

She didn't want to know what kind of things he said to other girls to make them happy.

Upon thinking about this, and even knowing that there was a possibility that he was plotting something against Betty, Mu Xiaoxiao still felt unhappy.

Yin Shaojie's smile deepened. It looked as though this girl got jealous really easily.

However, he liked how she looked when she was jealous.

It made him feel that she cared a lot for him.

However, it should still be moderated, as too much jealousy would backfire on their relationship.

If he made her really unhappy, his heart would ache.

Yin Shaojie said helplessly, "I don't know her. She was the one who suddenly hit on me."

"Did you have to flirt back when she hit on you then?" Mu Xiaoxiao wasn't that angry initially, but her anger was now increasing as she spoke, and she even pushed his arm away shamelessly, ignoring all the eyes on them.

"I have my reasons," Yin Shaojie explained hastily.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao didn't give him a chance to speak. Before he could finish talking, she interrupted, "Don't you know we don't see eye to eye with each other? Yet, you were talking so merrily with her earlier! You really… are the death of me!"

If she had known about this, she wouldn't have forgiven him so quickly.

"I know that you don't see eye to eye with her. Can you listen to me before getting angry?" Yin Shaojie said to her as he realized that she was really angry, his heart aching.

"You knew?" Mu Xiaoxiao was surprised. "How did you know?" she asked.

Yin Shaojie hung an arm around the back of her chair while leaning towards her. Using a whisper that only the both of them could hear, he said, "During the ball yesterday, I noticed her after I'd found you. I saw that she had been staring at you maliciously and was even whispering about something mysterious with her friends, looking like she wanted to hurt you."

Mu Xiaoxiao was shocked. She didn't know that things were like that. "Then?" she asked hurriedly.

Yin Shaojie smirked, and his gaze looked pleased as he said, "Then the lights went off. I saw her sneaking over to you furtively, and then I… just so happened to kick her into the water."

Just happened to… kick her?

Mu Xiaoxiao sniggered.

So Betty had fallen into the pool because he had kicked her?

Mu Xiaoxiao's gloomy mood lifted immediately, replaced by a happy one. She glanced at his expression, which was begging for praise, but ignored it deliberately as she asked, "Why did you pay attention to her then? Couldn't you have ignored her? Aren't you making her satisfied by letting her flirt with you?"

She understood now.

Betty was deliberately trying to seduce Yin Shaojie.
