Jin Haonan and others didn't react much. Although they were not as excited as the other boys, they also applauded.
Dong Jun saw that Yang Baishan didn't applaud, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Why don't you applaud?"
Yang Baishan clapped perfunctorily.
Dong Jun glared at him, "Do you know why I invited Cheng Lu here? It's because you didn't know right from wrong this morning and misunderstood that she was complaining to Secretary Li. I invited her here to give you a chance to apologize. Don't be stupid!"
When talking about the misunderstanding with Cheng Lu in the morning, Yang Baishan knew he was in the wrong and kept his mouth shut.
Seeing this, Dong Jun could only glare at him and didn't know what to say.
Chapter 173 Something is wrong
Then continue eating and drinking.
Xu Xiuwen had been observing Cheng Lu quietly.
Cheng Lu made a big change in his mind today.
In the previous few encounters, she was just like her nickname, Iceberg, cold and frightening.
Xu Xiuwen also ran into obstacles several times in front of her.
But tonight Cheng Lu seemed like a different person. Dong Jun poured her a glass of wine, and she accepted it and listened to everyone chatting.
She didn't care even if the boys used dirty words.
She would also respond politely to any boy who approached her, and if they toasted her, she would raise her glass and take a sip.
The atmosphere at the table became more lively with Cheng Lu's arrival.
By the end, almost every boy at the table had talked to and drunk with Cheng Lu.
But there are exceptions.
Yang Baishan was too proud to let go of his pride and refused to talk to Cheng Lu when he toasted.
Xu Xiuwen was too disdainful to compete with the boys for the opportunity to talk to Cheng Lu.
Yang Baishan drank in silence and couldn't help asking Xu Xiuwen, "What's wrong with Cheng Lu today? She used to be so cold that it was scary, but why didn't she show any displeasure when anyone spoke to her today? She even responded with a smile on her face?"
Xu Xiuwen thought to himself: "If you ask me, who should I ask?"
He recalled the scene where he had just used the wine bottle to push against Liu Liang.
Cheng Lu rushed over nervously and hugged his arms.
The nervous expression on the girl's face at that time is still vivid in my mind.
He couldn't help but wonder whether Cheng Lu recognized him.
Dong Jun leaned over and asked Yang Baishan in a low voice, "Old Yang, aren't you going to toast Cheng Lu?"
Yang Baishan asked back: "Why should I toast with her?"
Dong Jun said unhappily, "Are you scared?"
Yang Baishan was hit on the spot and was speechless for a moment.
Dong Jun saw his expression and understood immediately. He stopped trying to persuade him. Without waiting for Yang Baishan to react, he stood up and said to Cheng Lu, "Cheng Lu, Yang Baishan already knows that he was wrong about the misunderstanding he made with you this morning. He even told us that he intends to apologize to you."
Cheng Lu glanced at Yang Baishan expressionlessly, "If he wants to apologize, why doesn't he say it himself? Why does he want you to say it?"
When Yang Baishan heard this, he was immediately ashamed and angry. He turned his head to Xu Xiuwen and deliberately ignored her.
Dong Joon was embarrassed seeing his reaction.
Fortunately, other people also noticed the situation and quickly interrupted the conversation and got the better of it.
Cheng Lu didn't say much, her gaze drifted from Yang Baishan to Xu Xiuwen.
This was the first time she looked at me straight in the eye since she sat down at the table.
Their eyes met, and after looking at each other for a few seconds, it was Cheng Lu who took the initiative to look away.
Her face is a little red.
Probably because of the alcohol.
Xu Xiuwen was stunned for a moment.
There was definitely something wrong with Cheng Lu tonight.
Although Yang Baishan turned his head away, he was actually still paying attention to Cheng Lu secretly.
Seeing her staring at Xu Xiuwen for a long time, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, as if it was a bit sour and a bit bitter.
He couldn't help but ask, "Xiu Wen, you said Cheng Lu accepted the class monitor's invitation today. Did she fall in love with someone here?"
Xu Xiuwen didn't say anything.
Yang Baishan hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Xiu Wen, Cheng Lu... is she interested in you?"
Xu Xiuwen retracted his gaze, glanced at Yang Baishan who looked tangled, and asked, "What's wrong, do you like her?"
Yang Baishan quickly waved his hands to deny: "Don't talk nonsense, how could I like icebergs? Even if I like Bai Yue'er, I can't like icebergs!"
Xu Xiuwen smiled faintly, "If you don't like it, don't ask more questions."
After three rounds of drinking, everyone in the Plumbing Department was almost drunk and stood up to leave.
Dong Jun was more restrained today and didn't drink much, so he was still sober and took the initiative to pay the bill.
A group of people came to the entrance of the hotel and dispersed into different small groups.
Dong Jun paid the bill and came out. He ignored the drunken boys and walked straight to Cheng Lu and said, "Cheng Lu, thank you for your presence today. Lao Yang was too shy to speak up about what happened this morning. I apologize to you on his behalf. Please don't bother with him."
Cheng Lu nodded and said nothing.
Dong Jun continued, "It's getting late, let's separate here. I'll find someone to take you back."
Cheng Lu did not refuse.
Seeing that Cheng Lu had no objection, Dong Jun turned around and looked around, thinking about who to ask Cheng Lu to send her off.
Of course, most of the boys who were not drunk wanted to take Cheng Lu back to the dormitory, but Dong Jun didn't consider them at all.
He was looking at the person from 412, Yang Baishan to be precise.
He wanted Yang Baishan to send Cheng Lu back, and when they were alone in private, Yang Baishan could find an opportunity to apologize.
Yang Baishan felt Dong Jun's gaze and felt complicated.
In fact, he still hated Cheng Lu this morning, but later when he realized that he had misunderstood her, he felt a little apologetic.
In the evening, Cheng Lu was kind enough to come to dinner again, and she was no longer a cold iceberg. She chatted and drank with everyone in a friendly manner.
Yang Baishan's feeling towards her changed.
So Yang Baishan did not object to sending her back to the dormitory, and even deep down in his heart, he felt a little willing.
He was too embarrassed to say to Dong Jun, "Let me take it there."
So he chose to remain silent.
But at this moment, Xu Xiuwen suddenly spoke.
He said: "I'll take Cheng Lu back. I have something to do at Jiaotong University."
Yang Baishan was stunned, then came to his senses and immediately looked towards Xu Xiuwen.
Xu Xiuwen had a blank expression on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Liu Zhihao chuckled and asked, "Xiu Wen, are you going to Jiaotong University to see Xiao Youran?"
Liu Zhihao just keeps bringing up things that are not relevant to the topic.
In front of Cheng Lu, he didn't want to mention Xiao Youran.
Although he also knew that he couldn't escape it after all.
Dong Jun didn't think too much about it. He saw that Xu Xiuwen took the initiative to send Cheng Lu back to Jiaotong University, and Cheng Lu didn't object.
He glared at Yang Baishan first, then agreed, "Then Cheng Lu will be left to you, Xiu Wen. You must send her back to the dormitory safely."
When Cheng Lu heard Dong Jun's arrangement, he said nothing and walked towards the side of the road.
Seeing this, Xu Xiuwen hurriedly followed.
The other boys in the Department of Plumbing were envious of Xu Xiuwen for being able to send the beautiful girl back to the dormitory, but they could only support their drunk roommates and leave.
Yang Baishan stood there, looking at the backs of Xu Xiuwen and Cheng Lu, feeling a little complicated.
When Liu Zhihao saw him, he asked in confusion: "Old Yang, why don't you leave?"
Yang Baishan retracted his gaze and whispered, "Here it comes."
"What's wrong with you? Why are you so depressed?"
Yang Baishan shook his head and said nothing.
On the other side, Xu Xiuwen and Cheng Lu were preparing to cross the road.
There were still a lot of cars on North Street at night. Xu Xiuwen took the initiative to walk to the left side of Cheng Lu and reminded him, "Be careful."
Cheng Lu didn't say anything.
