"Hey buddy, have you managed to win over Pei Danqing?"
Next to a flower bush, someone handed Xu Lin a cigarette.
Xu Lin noticed the cigarette pack had no labels, so he wasn't sure what brand it was.
"Do I look like I've won her over?"
Snap!
Xu Lin accepted the lighter from the other person and lit up.
"What kind of cigarette is this? I've never seen it before."
"I brought it from home, you can't buy it outside."
"Oh."
Xu Lin didn't think much of it. It was just a cigarette. If someone offered, he'd smoke it.
The guy smiled and said, "I've never seen Pei Danqing get close to any guy. A girl like her, from a noble family, would have very high standards. You're the first guy who's gotten close to her. You must be quite the expert, bro!"
Xu Lin smiled without speaking, exhaled a puff of smoke, and looked into the distance.
Just then, Pei Danqing glanced over, perhaps she had been watching all along.
Xu Lin noticed Pei Danqing giving him a gentle smile.
