The flavor of the dishes pervaded the air.
Yiren suddenly said, "I got dumped."
"???"
Dahai looked puzzled and asked, "Dumped?"
What does that mean?
Yiren said, "Yes, your senior got dumped, and it feels awful."
Awful?
It certainly didn't seem that way.
It took Dahai a good while to realize the implications of her statement.
His eyes lit up: "Senior... you broke up with your boyfriend?"
Yiren curled her lips: "You are so slow to catch on, just figuring it out now?"
With her affirmative reply, Dahai's heart pounded fiercely: "Senior... when you went upstairs just now, was it to break up with him?"
"Yep." Yiren picked up her teacup, drinking tea in an attempt to mask the panic in her eyes.
Dahai asked, "Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why break up?"
Dahai continued, "Did he do something to wrong you?"
Yiren's cheeks suddenly flushed.
To be honest, it was she who had wronged her boyfriend.
Of course, she had never really considered him as her boyfriend in her heart.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been involved in such ambiguous activities with another man while being in a relationship.
"We weren't suitable."
Yiren explained, "It was an arranged date set up by my family. They thought he was a good guy and that we were a good match, but I didn't like him at all."
"I made it clear to him early on that I was following my family's wishes, but I didn't like him, I just had no feelings for him."
Dahai nodded his head in agreement, barely able to hide the joy on his face.
As Yiren was about to speak, her phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from her mom.
Seeing who was calling, Yiren said, "It's my mom; she's definitely calling to scold me."
With a sigh, Yiren took the call.
Before she could speak, she heard a roar on the other side of the line.
"I already said I didn't like him, it was you who insisted on me dating him."
"Anyway, we've broken up now."
"Don't set up any more blind dates for me; I don't want to date!"
"So annoying!"
Yiren hung up the phone. After a while, it rang again, which she ignored.
Yet the phone kept ringing relentlessly, leaving her no choice but to answer again.
This time she wasn't given the chance to speak. After a few sentences, the person on the other side hung up before her.
Dahai noticed that Yiren's eyes were slightly red.
He offered a tissue, "Senior..."
Yiren took it, wiped away her tears, and suddenly said, "My mom won't let me go home, I have nowhere to stay."
Dahai immediately said, "Stay at my place."
Tears clouded Yiren's eyes as she looked at him, "If I stay with you, you'll definitely take advantage of me."
Dahai grimaced, "Do you really not trust me that much?"
"Hmph, you bullied me just this morning, how can I trust you?"
"…It was clearly you who made the first move, no, it was with your lips."
Yiren blushed deeply and pinched him hard on the arm.
Dahai said, "Senior, please stay at my place."
After crying for a while, Yiren responded, "You'll accompany me later to get my clothes."
"Sure!"
Dahai was overjoyed.
She really agreed!
But he hadn't been happy for two seconds when suddenly he remembered something.
In his home, there was another woman!
Noticing his change in expression, Yiren asked, "What's wrong? Regretting it? Don't want to take me in?"
"No, it's just... I suddenly remembered something."
"What is it?"
"My side bedroom, I rented it out."
Yiren asked, "To a girl?"
"Uh-huh."
"Humph!"
Yiren suddenly became very angry, different from before, it was real anger.
She grabbed her bag and stood up, ready to leave.
Dahai quickly grabbed her wrist, saying, "Senior sister, listen to my explanation."
"You don't need to explain to me, I'm not your anyone."
"No, senior sister, sit down first, it's not what you think."
"What do I think? I didn't think anything, don't flatter yourself!"
Dahai was in pain, suddenly hugged her, and said, "Senior sister, that girl is a real estate agent."
"I've rented from her before, and the house I bought was also through her help."
"She's staying at my place because she was harassed by her roommate's boyfriend."
Dahai explained everything clearly, including her identity and the whole situation, and didn't dare to hide anything.
After he finished, he anxiously waited for fate's judgment.
Despite Yiren saying that there was nothing between them,
he was pretty sure, given their recent intimate behavior, that Yiren liked him.
The reason she went to break up with her boyfriend was also because of him.
The relationship between the two of them was just short of an opportunity.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have had such a huge reaction to another woman staying at his place.
After a long time, Yiren asked, "You're not lying to me?"
"Absolutely true!"
Seeing signs of softening in her tone, Dahai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you don't believe it, go back and ask her yourself."
"Hmph, who knows if you would coordinate over the phone with that girl, conspiring to deceive me."
Dahai put his cellphone directly in front of her: "Here's the phone, I won't touch it before you meet her."
Seeing his move, Yiren already believed him.
But still, having another woman in the house made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.
However, the other girl was also pitiable.
Harassed by her roommate's boyfriend.
Thinking from her perspective, she would have felt desperate if it were her.
And Dahai stepping up at a moment like this was totally heroic.
This also showed from another angle that Dahai was a man worthy of trust.
She grabbed the cellphone and said, "Come home with me to get some clothes."
Leaving the restaurant, Dahai took her home.
When they arrived at the residential area where Yiren lived, Dahai was stunned.
This was actually a villa area!
He looked at the villa in front of him somewhat bewilderedly, then turned to look at Yiren beside him.
"Senior sister, you live here?"
"Yeah."
Yiren said with a mischievous smile: "Senior sister is a pretty, rich, and brilliant girl."
Dahai said, "Not just pretty, rich, and brilliant, but also academically accomplished."
Entering the community, they arrived at one of the villas.
Dahai stood outside and said, "Senior sister, I'll wait for you outside."
"What for, secretly contacting that girl?"
"..." Women can be so petty.
Dahai said, "It's not quite appropriate for me to go in, is it?"
"What's inappropriate about it."
Yiren said, "There's no one at home anyway."
"No one?"
"Yeah, my parents have their own careers, they can't be home every day."
No one home is good.
Dahai followed her into the villa.
Looking at the exquisitely decorated and imposing villa, and then comparing it to the home he had just bought, Dahai suddenly felt the disparity.
Look, this is what you call a real house.
His own place was practically a pigeon cage.
Following her to the second floor, Yiren opened the wardrobe and started packing clothes.
