Chapter 505: Conditions for Hastening Yellowing

According to Gu's secret reminder, Li Qian chose to agree and accepted Mary Galloway's invitation.

After accepting Mary Galloway's invitation, Li Qian wanted to take the girl to the third cafeteria for dinner, but after a brief thought, he changed direction and went straight to the back door.

Li Qian didn't know why Gu's grandmother suddenly sent him a message and asked him to accept Mary Galloway's invitation.

But he knew that there must be a deep meaning in this. Gu's grandmother obviously wanted him to be alone with her. In this case, he might as well take the initiative to create an opportunity.

He took Mary Galloway to a specialty restaurant near the back door of the school, found a small table in the hall, and sat down happily.

Not long after the two sat down, they ordered the meal, and the dishes had not been served yet. At this time, a familiar voice suddenly rang.

"Li Qian, it's really you!"

Li Qian heard the familiar voice and immediately looked over. Soon he saw a beautiful figure at the entrance of the restaurant.

The person who came was none other than Li Lanying, who he hadn't seen for a while.

"Li Lanying!" Li Qian greeted Li Lanying as soon as he saw her. He was smiling on the surface, but he was already complaining in his heart.

What was going on? How could I meet Li Lanying by chance?

If it was any other time, it would be fine if I met her. It would just be a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks.

But now, it was different. At this moment, he was carrying out Grandma Gu's "mission".

If Li Lanying's intrusion disrupted the rhythm of the "mission" or even caused an accident, it would be troublesome.

Although he was smiling on the surface, Li Qian had already made up his mind. He did not hesitate, stretched out his hand, and made a "please" gesture.

"It just so happens that we have ordered food, but it has not been served yet. If you are so kind, let's eat together."

Li Lanying came over with a smile on her face. "Since it is an old classmate who invited me, I will be disrespectful to refuse."

After sitting down generously, the three of them started chatting. Li Qian introduced them to each other.

The two girls were all smiling and shook hands. The scene looked quite harmonious. After all, they were two beautiful women with good looks. This scene attracted the attention of many boys nearby.

They all cast envious glances at Li Qian, and felt that he was very lucky.

"Why did you come here to eat?" After chatting for a while, Li Lanying asked curiously.

"Just happened to meet in the library." Mary Galloway said softly, "Brother Qian, he is my savior. It's rare to meet him, so I have to thank him."

After hearing this, Li Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Look at you, you mentioned that again. I've already said that saving you is my duty."

"Also, didn't we agree that I will treat you to this meal?" Li Qian said in a joking tone, "Before, you were the only one, and now, there is Li Lanying, so it's not your turn."

Seeing that Mary Galloway wanted to say something, Li Qian interrupted her directly, "Don't say anything. If you really want to thank me, treat me to a meal next time. This time, it's settled."

"Okay!" Mary Galloway's eyes lit up, staring at Li Qian and nodded.

Li Lanying next to her saw this scene, and there was no change in her emotions on the surface, but she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart.

Although she knew very well that she could not "reach" Li Qian at present, it did not mean that other girls could covet him casually.

The most important thing was that in Li Lanying's opinion, although Mary Galloway was very beautiful, there was still a gap between her and Li Qian.

If even she dared to take the initiative to pursue her, why should she retreat in the face of difficulties?

Li Qian did not think much about it. After the dishes came, he ate carelessly. He asked casually: "By the way, Lanying, why are you here?"

"I don't have classes this afternoon. I have always heard that this restaurant tastes good, so I want to come and try it." Li Lanying responded casually.

Of course, in fact, this is just a superficial excuse. She has classes this afternoon, but at this moment, she took the initiative to choose "no classes".

And she did not come here because of the reputation. She had never heard of this restaurant, and she was not the kind of person who would come out specially for the sake of food.

The reason why he appeared here was because he accidentally saw Li Qian and Mary Galloway walking together in the school, and he followed them out of curiosity.

Then, he finished a meal smoothly, but facing two girls, and two very beautiful girls, Li Qian always felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

After lunch, Mary Galloway took the initiative to ask: "Brother Qian, do you have classes this afternoon?"

When Li Qian heard this, he immediately thought that there was something going on, so he replied directly, "No class, classmate Mary, do you have any plans?"

"I heard that if you walk along the road behind the school and come to the back mountain, you will see a forest of dragon-patterned trees. In this season, the leaves of the dragon-patterned trees have turned golden yellow, which is very beautiful. Otherwise, let's go and have a look?"

After hearing this, Li Qian was even happier. Originally, he wanted to create an opportunity to be alone, but now the opportunity was brought to him.

The only trouble was that there was one more person, so he directly focused his attention on Li Lanying.

He asked: "Lanying, what about you, what are your plans?"

When Li Qian said this, the meaning was actually very obvious.

Li Lanying naturally heard the implication of Li Qian's words. She smiled and said, "Really? There is such a beautiful place, so let me go and see it too!"

After hearing this, Li Qian sighed helplessly. At this moment, he couldn't drive Li Lanying away because he didn't know why.

So he had to agree "with a smile", and just like that, the three of them walked and chatted, and not long after, they arrived at the foot of the back mountain.

It's said to be the back hill, but it's actually just a small slope. There are indeed many dragon-patterned trees planted on the slope.

The three of them walked into the woods. Li Qian looked around and then shook his head, "Only one-third of the leaves of the dragon-marked tree have turned golden yellow. It's almost embarrassing. It will probably take a while for the leaves to turn." All turned golden.”

When Mary Galloway heard this, the corners of her mouth suddenly curved in a strange way, "It's indeed a bit of a pity, it's a fly in the ointment."

She looked at Li Qian and continued: "However, I heard that there is a way to make the leaves of the dragon pattern tree yellow in advance."

When Li Lanying heard this, she immediately became interested, "Oh~? What needs to be done to urge the yellow dragon pattern leaves in advance?"

Mary Galloway chuckled, "It's very simple, just pour enough blood."

After saying that, she turned to look at Li Qian and Li Lanying. The smile on her face was no longer sunny and bright, but became very cold.
