Louise had already guessed it might be the case, but she didn't expect everything to happen so quickly.
"Dr. Fran, let me talk to Mr. Ye first. Whether he agrees to meet you is up to him—I can't decide that."
"Alright, Miss Louise."
Just yesterday, Dr. Fran couldn't care less about Louise's friends. Yet now, not even a full day later, he was begging for a meeting with Ye Qiu.
The shift in attitude was truly stark.
After hanging up, Louise turned to Ye Qiu beside her and asked, "Qiu, Dr. Fran just asked me if he could meet you. What do you think?"
"No."
Ye Qiu responded.
He couldn't be bothered meeting such people. If it weren't for Louise wanting to attend the exchange event, he wouldn't even consider accompanying her.
"Guess it's settled then. Let's just ignore them."
When the waiter delivered the dishes Ye Qiu had ordered, he and the two women started their dinner.
They didn't finish until after nine o'clock in the evening, having eaten their fill.
