The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 877 - 892: She Didn’t Even Try to Dodge

Mu Yan’s lips, colored in a bean paste shade, curled up slightly as strands of hair damp with sweat fell over her forehead.

Yan Xiao glanced down at Mu Yan’s shoelaces, then bent down on one knee and deftly tied them: "Let’s go over there and take a break first." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Rather than feeling embarrassed because Yan Xiao helped her tie her shoelaces, Mu Yan’s smile deepened: "Sure, I’m feeling a bit thirsty too."

Yan Xiao bent down, removed his equipment, and walked toward the rest area with Mu Yan.

Li Manman and Chu Ci had seen everything just moments ago. Normally, if the opposite sex volunteered to tie their shoelaces, they would refuse, as it could easily lead to misunderstandings, both from others and even from the person themselves.

Yet, Mu Yan didn’t refuse, nor did she even try to avoid it.

Was it that Yan Xiao’s flirting skills were too advanced, or was it that the relationship between Mu Yan and Ling Haichen was not stable to begin with?

Li Manman watched as the two approached, pretending as if she hadn’t seen anything: "Why not play a bit longer?"

Mu Yan wiped the sweat from her face with a towel and sat down on a nearby chair: "Too tired, I want to rest for a bit."

Yan Xiao handed a bottle of mineral water to Mu Yan, thoughtfully unscrewing the cap: "Have some water first."

"Thanks." Mu Yan took the water and drank a few sips.

Chu Ci glanced down at her watch: "It’s almost noon. Why don’t we go get something to eat first?"

"Sure, I’m a bit hungry too. Let’s go change first."

Li Manman got up from her chair and headed to the changing room, with Chu Ci and Mu Yan following her.

After changing, they left the climbing gym. Li Manman initially wanted to sit in the front passenger seat, but was defeated by Yan Xiao’s pleading eyes, ultimately taking a seat in the back without a fuss.

Yan Xiao opened the passenger seat door for Mu Yan, and only after she sat down did he circle around the car to get into the driver’s seat.

Li Manman had cursed Yan Xiao countless times in her mind by now. If it weren’t for worrying about Mu Yan being there, she would’ve scolded this guy for putting romance before friends.

The car soon stopped at a seafood restaurant, and they all got out and went inside.

The waiter led them to a private room, bent over, and placed the menu on the table: "Please take a look and see if there’s anything you like. These are our signature dishes, you can try them."

Yan Xiao handed the menu to Mu Yan: "What do you like to eat?"

Li Manman and Chu Ci sat quietly at the table, watching their male friend treat them as if they were invisible.

Mu Yan picked a few dishes from the menu at random, then looked up and smiled: "Manman, what do you and Chu Ci like to eat?"

"We’re fine with anything, not picky." Li Manman replied with a smile, but discreetly shot a glare at Yan Xiao.

Yan Xiao could certainly sense Li Manman’s intense displeasure and quickly added: "I’ll order for Sister Manman and Sister Chu Ci, I know what they like."

"Okay." Mu Yan smiled and handed the menu to Yan Xiao.

Yan Xiao ordered some dishes that the two usually liked and gave the menu back to the waiter.

After the food was served, Yan Xiao hardly ate anything himself, busying himself with peeling shrimp for Mu Yan.

Li Manman and Chu Ci had never seen this guy so patient with anyone. He usually had a carefree demeanor, but they were surprised by his attentive and considerate side.
