Long Tian scanned the area, seeking a suitable seat. Suddenly, his gaze landed on Liu Qian, sitting alone with an empty space beside her. Without hesitation, he walked over and took the seat beside her.
Settling down, he greeted her with a warm smile, "Good morning, Qian'er."
Liu Qian noticed his presence and responded, "Good morning, Long Tian," her tone lacking its usual vigor.
A quizzical expression played on Long Tian's face as he inquired, "Is everything alright? You seem a bit down."
"I'm fine, Long Tian. It's just that I had a rough start this morning due to soone's actions," Liu Qian explained.
"Who?" Long Tian's curiosity was piqued.
"It's not worth ntioning. I'm feeling better now," Liu Qian assured.
"Well, Liu Qian, sotis it's best to just get rid of people who bring negativity into your life. It's like removing a thorn to let the wound heal and make space for better things," Long Tian advised.
Liu Qian chuckled softly, her eyes reflecting a mixture of relief and amusent, "You're quite the mind reader, aren't you? But seriously, do you have any clue about the ss I'm dealing with?"
"I can only guess. Isn't that individual a friend of yours? It's not uncommon for girls to have tiffs with their friends. I assu you're no exception," Long Tian replied.
Liu Qian smiled, privately wishing that Long Tian knew he was the source of her current conflict with Ye Chen. Regardless, she preferred to keep Long Tian out of her matters with Ye Chen.

Scanning the surroundings, Ye Chen couldn't spot Liu Qian. He sighed in frustration; his intention was to make ands and apologize, but it seed he'd have to wait for another opportunity. The area was vast, accommodating thousands of seats.
Ultimately, he selected a random seat and settled down.
Before long, a fellow young man of his age approached and occupied the adjacent seat. It was Xiao Lin.
"Finally caught up with you, Ye Chen. How's everything with your girl? Smooth sailing?" Xiao Lin inquired.
"It's complicated, our relationship hit a rough patch," Ye Chen confessed with a sigh.
"Man, what happened? Is she actually cheating with that guy?" Xiao Lin prodded.
"Liu Qian ntioned that he's her childhood friend, nad Long Tian. Nevertheless, I can't help but feel a pang of jealousy. Regardless of their history, she shouldn't be spending ti with another guy," Ye Chen mused.
Xiao Lin fell silent, his mind processing the na Long Tian. It triggered a sense of familiarity within him. Soon enough, realization dawned.
"Ye Chen, I think I know who Long Tian is," Xiao Lin stated, his tone serious.
"Who is he?" Ye Chen inquired, his curiosity sparked.
"Long Tian, he's the young master of the ancient Long family. Exceptionally talented and good-looking. I've even heard rumors that he's a bit of a playboy. Your girl might be in danger, Ye Chen," Xiao Lin disclosed, his voice tinged with genuine concern.
"What?" Ye Chen was taken aback. Long Tian wasn't just Liu Qian's childhood friend; he was the scion of the Long family. This revelation boded ill.
"What should I do, Xiao Lin?" Ye Chen sought advice earnestly.
"In your shoes, I'd probably step back and let go of Liu Qian. You know, it's Long Tian we're talking about. If you end up on his bad side, you're inviting a world of trouble," Xiao Lin cautioned solemnly.
Ye Chen furrowed his brows. If Long Tian wielded such influence, his relationship with Liu Qian was in dire jeopardy.
Yet he felt no fear; he cared not about Long Tian's lineage. He wouldn't surrender his girlfriend without a fight.
"Long Tian might be the heir of the Long family, but he's still just a human. I won't be intimidated by him," Ye Chen declared, his tone resolute.
"Really? Ye Chen, have you considered the consequences? Do you truly want to clash with Long Tian? Co on, there are plenty of attractive girls out there besides Liu Qian. It might be ti to move on," Xiao Lin advised earnestly.
"There's no use advising now, Xiao Lin. I won't let go of Liu Qian to Long Tian!" Ye Chen affird without hesitation.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but let out a sigh as he observed Ye Chen's unwavering determination. Ye Chen was daring enough to take on Long Tian, regardless of the potential consequences.
