243 BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES

Yan Su was an expert in cooking a beef steak. She helped Qi Ying to cook seafood soup too. Qi Ying cooked steamed veggies.

After having dinner, Mu Lan burped. Rubbing her stomach, she said, "You guys really know how to cook. Best dinner ever." She praised her friends non-stop.

However it didn't change the expressions of Yan Su, Xue Lin and Qi Ying. Qi Ying, who was always easy going and timid, wasn't talking too either.

Mu Lan scratched her head. She really wanted to make the atmosphere friendly. Still nothing was working.

Xue Lin was looking at the laptop. Yan Su played a romantic drama and Xue Lin and Qi Ying were watching it.

Mu Lan looked at her three friends. 'They are really mad at me, aren't they?' She thought.

She talked to herself, "Here I thought that I should compensate and take the opportunity to take my friends tomorrow in the Seine river cruise to have lunch together. But it seems I'm so unforgivable that it's not possible anymore-"
