Pei Huai's gaze scanned over Xia Wenyan, and his demeanor immediately became gentler towards Avril, "I'm a friend of Xia Wenyan, but I must say I've never seen such a beautiful girl by his side before."
"..."
Xia Wenyan gave Pei Huai a look, his eyes nearly rolling all the way back in annoyance.
How had he never noticed how slick Pei Huai was with words before?
And calling her a beautiful girl?
Pah!
She wasn't even as good-looking as him!
Hmph!
The more Xia Wenyan thought about it, the angrier he got, and he took a seat at the table, beginning to eat the appetizer dessert.
Previously, when she was with him, she always called him Yanyan, but now that she'd met this woman, she resorted to calling him Xia Wenyan, huh!
Pei Huai, well played!
Avril was blooming with joy from Pei Huai's compliment, not paying any attention to Xia Wenyan beside her.
As she was about to shower Pei Huai with attention, she realized that Xia Wenyan had started eating the dessert in front of her.
