Xue Rui gently took her hand. "Come on, I'll take you to eat something good."
'Xue Rui knew those embarrassing lyrics, and now he's holding my hand,' Gu Muxue thought, her peach-blossom eyes full of mirth. 'Does this mean he's acknowledging our relationship?'
The two of them arrived at the food court on the basement level. Both sides were lined with stalls selling snacks from all over the country: stinky tofu, grilled cold noodles, pan-fried buns, river snail noodles...
The air was filled with the aroma of various dishes and snacks.
Gu Muxue was slightly surprised. There were many snacks here like the ones sold outside her school, but they looked much cleaner.
It was just past mealtime, so there were fewer people eating, but the environment was still quite noisy.
Xue Rui spotted a familiar figure clearing plates from the communal tables.
Gu Muxue followed Xue Rui's gaze and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Lily?"
