290. Chapter 290: There's a Reason for Everything 7

Well, better not be too conspicuous. I don't want to smoke here, and you shouldn't either. If you feel like smoking, just sneak off alone—no need to do this.

Fortunately Lili reminded me—it's unnecessary, really unnecessary. It's not worth him deteriorating like that, and if we were seen on the street, that would be bad.

So I had it in my hand, about to put it in my pocket, when a car suddenly swooped past beside me. I cried out, the cigarette fell to the ground, and someone caught me in their arms—if it weren't for that person, I would have fallen.

After the scare, I looked up and thought he looked familiar, as if I'd seen him somewhere. I stared at him for a moment, but still couldn't recall where I'd seen him.

He let go of me and said, "You don't remember me? We met at the skating rink."

Then I remembered—he was the one with great skills, pretty good-looking, and when I first fell, he had come over to help me. I quickly forced a smile and said, "Oh, sorry, hehe, I just couldn't recall."

"It's fine, pretty lady, where are you headed to have fun? Anyway, I'm free too—why not go together?" he said with a smile.

"Not bad—having a handsome guy along, we're happy." Lili quickly said; that's just her personality, and I didn't mind either. Since Shangguan Yun can be with Tingting, why can't I find a guy to keep me company?

So as I bent down to pick up the pack of cigarettes, he quickly bent down, picked it up, and handed it to me, saying, "Girls shouldn't smoke women's cigarettes, should they?"

I took it, smiled, and said, "Thanks." I didn't say anything else, but I felt uncomfortable knowing others knew I smoked, like a thief caught in the act.

"Hehe, no need for formalities—call me Ahao. We've met, so we might as well be friends." That guy said to me and Lili; Ahao, that name really suits him.

"Sure. Just call me Xuanxuan." I said with a smile. "I'm Lili." Lili also said.

Afterward, Ahao also asked for my phone number—I was actually being this open giving my number to a guy I barely knew. Today really was stimulating, but Ahao didn't ask Lili for hers.
