Eh? she reached in and felt a plastic box.

She took it out for a look, and it was actually a piece of strawberry cake!

Mu Xiaoxiao hadn’t eaten strawberry cake in a while, so her eyes immediately lit up the moment she saw it, and the smile on her face became even brighter.

Someone noticed and asked, “Who hasn’t taken it back yet?”

No one answered.

Mu Xiaoxiao seemed to know who had sent it as her gaze instinctively turned toward the girl in the back. Sure enough, her head was lowered, but she was smiling.

But what gave Mu Xiaoxiao a pleasant surprise was that she hadn’t expected that classmate to know her tastes. Perhaps that meant that she had always been paying attention to her?

Knowing that this was a gift of thanks, she accepted it magnanimously.

“If no one wants to take it back, then they don’t mind if I dig in,” Mu Xiaoxiao said as she opened the cake box, picked up a fork, and took a bite.

There was a girl who shouted, “Mu Xiaoxiao, how can you do this? Maybe the person hasn’t returned yet, yet you actually stole and ate her cake.”

Mu Xiaoxiao heard that she had no ill intent in her words but was only joking.

So she also laughed and said, “I don’t care. In any case, since it’s in my drawer, it means that it is meant for me. Any of you want to eat? I can be generous and share some with you since you guys seem to be drooling. Aiyoh, it’s really good. How can it taste so good!”

“Who wants to eat your saliva! It’s only strawberry cake; it is not as if no one has ever eaten it before.”

“But… it seems really tasty.”

“Yeah, you’re making me feel like eating it. Who is the one who bought this? Which store did you buy it from? Someone tell me!”

“You want to buy it? Then I want one too. Buy one for me then.”

“Me too! Me too!”

Listening to their ruckus, it felt pleasant to her ears, putting her in a good mood. Even the cake she was eating tasted particularly sweet.

Soon after she finished eating, she packed up the box, and her gaze unwittingly fell upon the desk in front of her again.

The table had been replaced with a new one.

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled, feeling really relieved. She was no longer that troubled anymore.

At night.

In the GG Bar was a scene of feasting, revelry, and people singing into the night.

When a customer left, An Zhixin walked over to clear up the table and wipe it clean with a cloth.

Actually, she didn’t want to work part-time in the bar since the bar was quite a debauched place. But, she couldn’t find other part-time jobs, so she had no choice but to take this one, and it was even Wang Shiyu who had introduced the job to her. The hourly salary was also relatively higher.

Just as she finished wiping the table, her phone rang in her pocket.

She thought it was the supervisor looking for her, so she hurriedly picked it up, but little did she expect to hear her father’s voice.

“Xinxin, will you agree to Papa’s request? Papa promises you that I will never let you do something that you don’t like. It’s just to accompany a few scions for some drinks. This is very normal. I’m not asking you to sleep with them.”

Feeling helpless and dejected, An Zhixin took a deep breath and said, “Pa! I really don’t want to. I don’t want to do that kind of thing!”

“But Papa has already promised someone. Just come once. Just once! Xinxin, Papa said before, when Papa earns money, I’ll buy a big house for you to live in. You should also stop staying at that dormitory. Come back home.”

“Pa, I’m very busy right now. I’m hanging up,” An Zhixin didn’t want to continue talking to him, so she hung up immediately.
