"No," Ling Yiran said lightly. "I have a friend waiting for me outside too, so I have to go soon."
"Hey, take it easy." Guan Lili added. "You don't have a boyfriend now, do you? My boyfriend is a professor at the university and knows a lot of people. Why don't you let him introduce you to a few men?"
She said as she followed Ling Yiran out of the washroom.
Then, Guan Lili called out to a man of medium build standing outside the washroom. He promptly came over.
Ling Yiran looked at the approaching man. He looked average in appearance but was a little older, looking like he was in his late 40s. Obviously, this was Guan Lili's boyfriend.
"Banghe, this is my ex-colleague, Ling Yiran. I happened to run into her in the washroom just now," Guan Lili said. She added. "Yiran, this is my boyfriend, He Banghe. He is a professor at Yuren University."
Guan Lili sounded ostentatious.
It was He Banghe who hastened to correct her. "I'm only an associate professor, not a professor."
"In two years you’ll be a professor," Guan Lili said disapprovingly. She then asked Ling Yiran, "Didn't you say your friend is waiting for you outside? Where are they?"
Ling Yiran looked up and did not see Yi Jinli.
"Why, is someone setting you up on a blind date?" A voice suddenly rang in Ling Yiran's ear, and it seemed to make Guan Lili's voice stuck in her throat.
Yi Jinli, who was wearing a trench coat, walked over to Ling Yiran and passed her a glass of milk tea. "I heard you say that you want to try this brand of milk tea. I saw it just now, so I went to get you one. See if you like it. If you don't, we'll go and get another one you like later."
Ling Yiran took the milk tea, which was warm, and held it in her hands. It warmed her hands up a bit.
She glanced at the brand name on the milk tea. She saw it on the news that the milk tea store had come to Shen City, so she mentioned to him that the milk tea was quite famous on the internet.
