Chapter 812: Chapter 817: The Woman and Her Best Friend

At that moment, Bai Tong realized Yang Gang’s gaze and turned her head, only to discover herself.

Her cheeks instantly turned blazing red, and she hurriedly pulled down her dress from the bench, then pinched the hem and tugged it downward.

Having done all this, Bai Tong felt utterly collapsed.

"Why do I act like a naive young girl going through puberty? Hey, Ms. Bai Tong, you’re already 26 years old!"

Neither of them spoke, and the room was filled with an inexplicable atmosphere of ambiguous intimacy.

"Um, Sister Bai Tong, I’d like to go into the city to have a look. It’s been a day since the incident, and I think Long Yi has already left the Xilan Republic, or at least left Jincheng," Yang Gang said.

Bai Tong collected herself and nodded, "Mm, shall I join you? I happen to have plans to meet a friend tonight."

"Friend?"

"Yeah, a close university girlfriend. Oh, if you don’t mind, I can introduce you to her."

"Ah?"

Bai Tong hastened to clarify, "I didn’t mean it that way. What I meant is, she works for the Xilan intelligence department and might have information about Long Yi’s whereabouts."

Yang Gang eyed her with suspicion, "Would she reveal such sensitive information to us?"

"Definitely. She’s my best girlfriend," Bai Tong said.

"Ha~"

Yang Gang now had a conditioned aversion to women and their girlfriends.

Bai Tong glanced at Yang Gang, then added with a smile, "Yang Gang, don’t be too uncomfortable, actually her boyfriend will be there tonight as well, said he’d introduce me. It would be pretty awkward if I were to go by myself."

"Mm, okay!" Yang Gang thought for a moment and nodded.

The two first called Qin Ruoli to explain the situation, then strolled the streets of Jincheng for a while before evening came.

A high-end restaurant in Jincheng.

When Yang Gang and Bai Tong arrived, a man and a woman were already waiting for them in a private room.

The man looked about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, quite handsome and cultured, with a temperament similar to the artsy guy with natural curls they encountered on the plane.

The woman, around Bai Tong’s age, was also quite attractive.

Although she didn’t have Bai Tong’s aura, she was indeed a charming older-sister type.

"Yaoyao, sorry for being late," Bai Tong said.

The woman rushed out of the private room and hugged Bai Tong, "Tong Tong, I’ve been so busy with work, I’ve missed you to death."

Then, she poked her head out to look at Yang Gang, her eyes rolled, and she chuckled softly, "Hey, Tong Tong, is this your little lover? Nice catch."

Bai Tong rolled her eyes, "He’s not my lover, he’s just a friend, didn’t I tell you?"

"Don’t make excuses. As your bestie, I fully support you in dumping that jerk Long Yi and finding someone new. But, you and Long Yi haven’t divorced yet... none of that matters! Whether it’s cheating or straying, I’ll always back my girlfriend!"

Bai Tong’s mouth twitched slightly. She glanced at the man in the room and said, "Yaoyao, aren’t you going to introduce us to your boyfriend?"

"Oh, right, I almost forgot." Yaoyao let go of Bai Tong and pointed to the man behind her, "May I present, this is my boyfriend, Du Fu."

Yang Gang and Bai Tong wore astonished expressions.

"Great name!" Bai Tong chuckled, then paused and pointed at Yang Gang, "This is my friend, Yang Gang. Yang Gang, this unreliable woman is Xue Yao, my best girlfriend."

"Nice to meet you, Sister Yaoyao," Yang Gang said politely.

Xue Yao circled around Yang Gang three times, assessing him, "Hmm, not bad, not bad. Little Yang Gang, we’ll be entrusting our Bai Tong to you from now on, don’t you dare bully her."

"Ha~" Yang Gang’s smile was strained.

Bai Tong quickly pulled Xue Yao away, "Hey, Yaoyao, don’t talk nonsense, he’s got a girlfriend!"

"Ah, is that so? Then that’s really a pity," Xue Yao adjusted her emotions and added, "Come on, let’s sit down."

They took their seats and the waiter soon brought in a table full of lavish dishes.

Wild abalone, caviar, ginseng soup—the works.

"First of all, let me make it clear that I’m footing the bill today, and I’ll be furious with anyone who tries to pay instead!" Xue Yao declared.

Bai Tong rolled her eyes, "Don’t flatter yourself, I didn’t bring any money when I came out."

Yang Gang smiled and said, "Thank you for your generosity, Sister Yaoyao."

Bai Tong waved dismissively, "Yang Gang, there’s no need to be courteous with this rich girl. She’s from one of Xilan’s three great families, the Xue family. There’s nothing she lacks, except for money."

"Hey! Bai Tong, is that how you talk about your best friend? And my boyfriend’s right here!" Xue Yao feigned indignation.

The refined man chuckled lightly, "Regardless of what others say, I always believe that Yaoyao is the best girl in the world."

Bai Tong made a face of disgust, "I’ve got goosebumps all over."

Xue Yao, however, appeared quite pleased, her face brimming with happiness.

When her gaze landed on Yang Gang, she paused, "Mr. Yang, what’s the matter?"

Yang Gang snapped out of his daze, composed himself, and said indifferently, "Nothing."

"Oh, right, Yaoyao, I heard that the long-lost young princess of the Xue family’s main house has returned after twenty years?" Bai Tong suddenly brought up.

"Uh, you mean Feifei? Yes, my cousin, she’s gorgeous. Although she can’t quite compare to me yet, given some time, Feifei will definitely be the most beautiful woman in the Xue family," Xue Yao laughed.

Her words were obviously in jest, suggesting that the relationship between Xue Yao and Yang Fei was probably quite good.

"Feifei?" Bai Tong looked at Yang Gang, seemingly realizing something.

But being women of their age, they were smart; they knew what to say and what not to say.

So, Bai Tong didn’t say anything.

Yang Gang’s lips twitched, feeling an urge to ask Xue Yao about Yang Fei, but in the end, he did not speak up.

Midway through the meal, Du Fu stood up to use the restroom, and not long after, Yang Gang also headed to the bathroom.

Just at the entrance to the restroom, Yang Gang heard a low shout, "Can’t you watch where you’re going? Don’t let your dirty clothes touch mine!"

An elderly janitor bowed his head, repeatedly apologizing, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry."

"Get lost!" The man cursed irritably, "Dammit, what bad luck!"
