The lively chatter suddenly died down; now, each person sat in silence.
Sitting in the restaurant, the three roommates squeezed into a sofa like quails, staring blankly, not daring to make a sound.
After ordering the meal, Bo Yanching bent down, resting his arm on the table edge, whispered a few words to Nan Jiaojiao. The soft lighting cast a delicate warmth on his face, a slight smile lingered at the corner of his mouth. Straightening up, he courteously said to the roommates, "I have a few friends here, I'll go and greet them. Feel free to order anything you like, it's on me."
The three roommates quickly stood up but then felt it inappropriate, sat back down, their hands properly placed on their laps.
"Will Mr. Bo come back?"
One of them asked.
The question sent shivers down the spines of the other two, and they nudged her from both sides.
Bo Yanching chuckled, "No, after you finish eating, Jiaojiao will find me, and I'll drive you back to the university."
