“Betray?” Wei Lai furrowed her brows, momentarily confused. Then, her eyes widened as if she had just realized something.

Swiftly pulling out her phone, Wei Lai showed the contents to Jiang Chun. As Jiang Chun glimpsed the content, her lips involuntarily curled into a slight smile. When Wei Lai turned to her, Jiang Chun immediately looked away, though a subtle smile still lingered on her lips.

The two of them followed Wen Nian and the others to the fourth floor. There, they observed Shen Jun proactively buying ice cream – one vanilla-flavored and the other strawberry-flavored.

Then, Wei Lai witnessed a sight that nearly prompted her to dash over and pull Wen Nian’s hair. She watched as Shen Jun placed two ice creams in front of Wen Nian. Wen Nian took a bite of both the vanilla and strawberry ice creams, finally picking up the strawberry one and savoring it happily.

To her astonishment, Shen Jun didn’t seem to mind. He calmly ate the same vanilla ice cream that she had just taken a bite of.

“This is disgusting! How can that damn b*tch offer what she ate to Brother Shen Jun?” Wei Lai’s anger reached boiling point. If Jiang Chun hadn’t restrained her, she might have rushed forward.

“Wei Lai, don’t be rash. Shen Jun will be angry if you do this.” Jiang Chun seemed to be holding her back, but her words were actually fanning the flames of Wei Lai’s emotions.

“They’re a couple. It’s fine even if they swap food. Usually, when I watch television, it’s common for couples to kiss. This sort of thing…”

Before Jiang Chun could finish her sentence, Wei Lai cut her off with a shriek. “They even kissed? Wen Nian is truly shameless. She’s still a student, yet she’s already seducing men like this? She just looks cunning; she isn’t a good woman at all. She actually dared to kiss Brother Shen Jun. She…”

Wei Lai was too overwhelmed with anger to continue speaking. Her hands were cold and trembling. Clearly, she was beyond furious.

Jiang Chun kept trying to pacify her. “It’s normal for couples to behave like that. You’ll understand when you fall in love in the future.”

However, Wei Lai was too consumed by her anger to listen. She saw the smile on Wen Nian’s face and noticed how Shen Jun lowered his head, as if preparing to kiss her any moment now! Just as she was on the verge of rushing forward, Wei Xiao arrived on the fourth floor of the mall. Panting slightly, he quickly approached Wen Nian and Shen Jun.

“Wen Nian? Weren’t you planning to study today? 1 didn’t expect to run into you here,” Wei Xiao gasped out, having clearly rushed to get there.

Wen Nian appeared a bit flustered by the unexpected encounter. Shen Jun swiftly placed his hand on her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

Wei Xiao also understood Shen Jun’s unspoken signal of asserting his dominance. He chimed in, “I was just strolling around today. You left early yesterday, and we didn’t have a proper meal. Now’s a good opportunity. Why not join us for a meal?”

He was still a little happy. Wen Nian’s current attitude towards him was alright. If she agreed, Shen Jun would definitely attend as well.

“Brother, you’re here too?” Wei Lai had managed to calm herself and approached with a smile. “Treating Brother Shen Jun, huh? In that case, I’ll tag along with Sister Jiang Chun. The more, the merrier!”

Jiang Chun looked apologetically at Shen Jun and whispered, “1 did my best to dissuade her. However, she spotted her brother and insisted on coming over.”

She turned to Wen Nian and added, “I’ll take her away in a moment. Don’t misunderstand.”

After saying that, Jiang Chun dragged Wei Lai away. However, Wei Lai had finally found a chance to eat with Shen Jun. How could she let this chance go just like that?

“Sister Jiang Chun, since my brother is treating, why not join us? You and Brother Shen Jun grew up together and are great friends,” she proposed, then shot a provocative look at Wen Nian. “Wen Nian and my brother can be considered childhood sweethearts. It’s just that some people aren’t lucky enough.”

“Wei Lai, don’t talk nonsense!” Sensing that Shen Jun’s mood wasn’t good, Wei Xiao swiftly intervened.

He turned to Wen Nian, saying, “I recall you used to enjoy the cake over there. 1’11 go line up. You can wait for me at the restaurant.”

As he spoke, Wen Nian sensed Shen Jun’s grip on her waist tightening once more. It was clear he was on the verge of losing his temper.

The atmosphere was tense, and it was evident that Shen Jun was keeping his irritation in check. However, Wei Lai persisted in poking at Wen Nian. “Just as expected of your ex-fiance. He even remembers what you like to eat.”

Wei Xiao wished he could pull out Wei Lai’s tongue. Why did he have such a thoughtless sister?

However, Wen Nian had become tired of watching them act. She said, “1 really don’t have the fortune to eat with you guys. 1’11 take my leave first..”
