Bai Mo’s silhouette gradually disappeared from view.

Song Xuanhe brought his glass of sparkling wine to his lips and took another sip. The ice-cold liquid slid down his throat as the system’s voice rang in his head. 【This is the first time you’ve acted out a scene exactly as the plot had described. Your expressions and lines were performed to a T. I give you full marks for your acting.】

【I was in a good mood.】

Song Xuanhe placed the glass back down. He didn’t know if it was because the alcohol was strong, but his face felt a bit hot, and his head felt a little heavy. He had known that the original host couldn’t drink much white wine, but he hadn’t expected that he would even get drunk on too much fruit wine.

The System noticed that Song Xuanhe was currently expressionless. It scanned his data and analyzed the numbers. It then hesitated and said, 【I’ve discovered that your blood alcohol concentration has already exceeded the amount it takes to get you humans drunk. Furthermore, my database includes code for analyzing human emotions. Upon conducting a large-scale analysis, I have determined that your current mood cannot be described as ‘happy.’】

Song Xuanhe paused in the middle of going for his glass again. His dark mood from recalling his friend had been disrupted by the System, and a lot of the gloom was dispelled. The corner of his lips curled up.：【Everyone’s alcohol tolerance is different. I’m just a bit tipsy, not drunk. You’ll understand once you give alcohol a try, brother.】

【I’m a system. I can’t drink alcohol.】

【From the sound of your voice, it sounds like you’d be a good drinker.】

Xiao Yuanmu had noticed that Song Xuanhe’s mood had plummeted since Zhou Nan had left. Since then, the other had been constantly drinking as if he wanted to get drunk immediately. He had wanted to stop him, but he had changed his mind after seeing Bai Mo.

What you saw wasn’t necessarily real. The human heart was incomparably filthy. Furthermore, his memories weren’t fake. When there were two entirely different sides to what he could see, it didn’t necessarily mean that one was fake and the other real. Perhaps it would be closer to the truth to say that both sides were fake or that both sides were half-truths.

Xiao Yuanmu thought that if Song Xuanhe was drunk, he might be able to get some clues out of him. Seeking the truth like this felt novel and exciting. He didn’t want to miss out on this delightful experience that stemmed from the discrepancy between his memories.

However, just as Xiao Yuanmu had changed his mind, Song Xuanhe’s mood suddenly brightened. The other, who had seemed to be lost in thought just now, suddenly seemed to think of something interesting. The stillness in his eyes was swept away, and his lips curled up into a smile.

After making the System speechless, Song Xuanhe’s mood became a lot better. He looked around their surroundings, gaze landing on Zhou Nan. He then said to Xiao Yuanmu, “I have something to do. Stay here on your own for a bit.”

Xiao Yuanmu narrowed his eyes slightly, gaze sweeping over Song Xuanhe’s face before he said in a cool tone, “Okay.”

Later on, Bai Mo would come over and worm his way into being friends with Xiao Yuanmu. In the beginning, Song Xuanhe had stayed because of the plot. Now, he was leaving for the same reason. After all, as the person who would become the light in the to-be-reborn big shot’s life, although Bai Mo’s existence wasn’t particularly detrimental or useful for him, having him was more beneficial for the overall situation.

A person who still had light in their heart dealt with their enemies differently from a person who had blackened completely.

Song Xuanhe walked towards the crowd. Just now, these people had just seen this little young master from the Song Family unilaterally suppress and ridicule Song Jiabao. Although it had been an interesting and invigorating spectacle to watch, this young master didn’t seem like he’d be easy to deal with. Therefore, when they saw him coming over, the majority of people dodged him carefully. They were afraid of possibly offending this young master.

However, just because the majority of people were sensible, that didn’t mean that everyone was sensible.

“Song shao.” A pretty woman stopped Song Xuanhe, her expression complicated.

Song Xuanhe felt like this girl looked familiar. However, he couldn’t place where he had seen her before. Therefore, he determined that she wasn’t an important person to the original host. He wasn’t going to pay her any attention until he saw the unconcealed hatred in her eyes. Intrigued, he paused and asked, “Is there something the matter?”

The girl smiled, but it didn’t reach her eyes. She said, “Song shao is so forgetful. It’s only been two months, but you’ve already forgotten me.”

Two months? So, this woman wasn’t someone the original host had met but rather someone he had seen himself?

Song Xuanhe raised an eyebrow, meticulously sizing up the woman in front of him. In the end, he finally found her name and how they had met from his memories.

“Yang Ran?” Song Xuanhe hesitated.

Seeing that Song Xuanhe had finally remembered her, Yang Ran’s smile deepened. “You finally remembered.”

Song Xuanhe blinked innocently and asked, “Why do I have to remember you?”

Yang Ran bit down on her lips, her eyes turning red. A moment later, she said, “You stole my boyfriend and still dare to act so arrogant? Do you think that you can do whatever you want just because you have a good family background?!”

Song Xuanhe was genuinely startled upon hearing this. He then couldn’t help but laugh. “Did your ‘boyfriend’ know that he was your boyfriend?”

“If you hadn’t forced him to be with you, he would have been my boyfriend!” Yang Ran raised her voice in rage. However, she regained her calm after letting that outburst out. She lowered her voice and gnashed her teeth. “If it hadn’t been for you, I wouldn’t have had to leave my original job, a career with one of the top five hundred companies in the world, and end up working for a small, newly founded company.”

Seeing Song Xuanhe smile silently, the jealousy and hatred in Yang Ran’s heart only grew more fierce. She spat hatefully, “Although I don’t know what bewitching potion you fed him to make him feel a tiny bit of emotion for you, I’m telling you that if you insist on being with him, nothing good will await you!”

Hearing this, Song Xuanhe’s interest faded. He raised his wine glass to her and then left.

Yang Ran hadn’t expected that Song Xuanhe would leave without a word. Impulse took control of her head, and she shouted, “Do you know why Xiao Yuanmu had fallen into the water that day?!”

The woman’s shout was sharp and full of pride. However, Song Xuanhe’s steps didn’t falter. He continued to leave without looking back.

Zhou Nan had already seen Song Xuanhe making his way over. He had also noticed that the other had been stopped by a woman. The two of them had chatted for quite a bit. Therefore, when Song Xuanhe finally came close, he teased, “Popular with both the guys and the girls.”

Song Xuanhe sat down next to him. His gaze searched the crowd, looking for Xiao Yuanmu. He then said in a tone void of emotion, “That was someone Xiao Yuanmu ‘led on.’”

When Zhou Nan heard this, he also began searching through the crowd. However, unlike Song Xuanhe, he was looking for the woman the other had been talking to just now.

He had only caught a glimpse of her back and didn’t get to see her face. A woman with the gall to chase after Xiao Yuanmu would have had to be pretty confident in her own looks. Otherwise, she’d have suffered from an inferiority complex, being with him every day.

When Song Xuanhe caught sight of Xiao Yuanmu, he looked away. Seeing Zhou Nan move his head around, obviously searching for someone, he asked, “Who are you looking for?”

“The girl Xiao Yuanmu led on, ah.” Zhou Nan said before asking curiously, “So, how was she? Was she unbelievably beautiful? Was her chest big? Were her legs long?”

Song Xuanhe gave Zhou Nan a look of contempt. He picked up some fruit from the platter to eat. However, they didn’t taste good, so he placed the fork back down.

“Tell me, ah.” Zhou Nan bumped shoulders with Song Xuanhe. “A girl who can chase after Xiao Yuanmu has to at least be on the level of a goddess.”

Song Xuanhe conjured up an image of Yang Ran when he heard this. “Fair skin, a pretty face, long legs. She was a part of Xiao Yuanmu’s drowning incident last time. If you like her, you can give her a try.”

“The time at my party?” Zhou Nan retracted his profligate attitude, gaze finally locking onto the woman. He asked, “Didn’t you say that she liked Xiao Yuanmu? Why would she have him pushed into the water if she liked him? If she was going to do that to someone, she should have done it to you.”

Song Xuanhe’s eyes were on Xiao Yuanmu, who was standing not too far away. He said in an indolent tone, “Have you ever heard of hatred born out of love? Furthermore, if she wanted to have me shoved into the water, she’d have needed Song Jiani’s permission.”

Only then did Zhou Nan recall Song Jiani’s role in that farce. “That’s true. I used to think that Song Jiani wasn’t a bad person despite her arrogance. I didn’t think she could be so ruthless.”

“Women are more destructive than men when they decide to get ruthless.” Song Xuanhe said plainly.

Zhou Nan shook his head, sighing. “None of this would have happened if you had liked Song Jiani. That girl’s liked you for over ten years. Of course she’d go crazy, seeing you suddenly fall for someone else.”

“You were just trying to smooth things out between Xiao Yuanmu and me.” Song Xuanhe looked askance at him, “Now you’re trying to be Song Jiani’s matchmaker?”

Zhou Nan shrugged, “Song Jiani and I were friends in elementary school. But, you and Xiao Yuanmu really suit each other. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have meddled.”

As he said this, Zhou Nan turned to look at Song Xuanhe. “It’s not just me. Lin zi also thinks that Xiao Yuanmu suits you well. Don’t you pick your partners based on appearances? Xiao Yuanmu’s looks are one in ten thousand. If you get tired of him and throw him away, you might just regret it when you can’t find someone better than him.”

Song Xuanhe hadn’t thought that Zhou Nan would say such a thing. However, he didn’t care. There were no feelings between himself and Xiao Yuanmu. If he told Zhou Nan what was really between them, he’d probably give him a scare.

Zhou Nan saw that Song Xuanhe didn’t have much of a reaction. Therefore, he changed topics. He could only meddle this much. There was no use for other people to say too much when it came to someone else’s relationship.

The two of them chatted and drank like this in their little corner. No one dared to come bother them anymore. It was peaceful.

Suddenly, Song Xuanhe paused while reaching for his glass. His gaze was in Xiao Yuanmu’s direction.

Although the System could broadcast things straight into his head, Song Xuanhe wasn’t used to it. Furthermore, it wouldn’t be good to rely on that too much. Therefore, he used his own eyes to keep track of the situation. He watched it for himself.

After Song Xuanhe had left, Xiao Yuanmu had moved to a spot where he had a wider view of the venue. He quietly observed the reception that he had already once experienced. His gaze flickered back and forth, trying to find out what was different in comparison to his last life.

However, what he discovered was that aside from the mishap between Song Xuanhe and Song Jiabao, everything had been the same as it had been in his memories, including Bai Mo’s appearance and Song Xuanhe’s words after said appearance.

Xiao Yuanmu lowered his eyes slightly, his fine, long eyelashes fanning out. His long, slender fingers fiddled with the empty wine glass in his hands. His eyes were peaceful as if quietly waiting for something to happen.

In his last life, he hadn’t been standing here. If the details had changed, would that also change the events that were to occur?

Shortly after, a waiter carrying a tray passed by and accidentally bumped into a female guest nearby. That guest cried out in alarm, and the tray slipped from the waiter’s hands in his panic.

Xiao Yuanmu’s fingers paused in their actions. He stepped to the side slightly, avoiding the spilling liquid. He gave a cold look to the waiter, who was constantly bowing and apologizing.

“Dear guest, I’m truly sorry.” The waiter’s face had turned deathly pale from fright. He was bent down, not daring to raise his head. His voice trembled, carrying an apologetic note. “I’m really, really sorry. So sorry. I didn’t do this on purpose. Please forgive me.”

The waiter wasn’t a tall man. He was also thin. Although he was wearing a uniformed vest, there was a lot of space left unfilled. Hearing his frightened, sincere apologies, the spectators couldn’t bear to see him continue like that. Even the anger of the woman who had been bumped into had decreased greatly.

The people here had all witnessed Song Xuanhe’s fighting prowess just now. They also knew that Xiao Yuanmu was his lover. If Xiao Yuanmu really decided to bicker about this, then this little waiter would likely lose his job.

Finally, someone couldn’t hold back anymore and said, “Sir, he didn’t do this on purpose. You should forgive him.”

The waiter’s apologies became even more sincere after hearing someone speak on his behalf. With a trembling voice, he added, “I really didn’t do it on purpose. Daren, please forgive me. I have a sick brother at home who needs treatment. I really can’t lose this job. Please, I beg of you.”

Since the waiter had begun apologizing, Xiao Yuanmu still hadn’t said a word. He stood to the side, indifferent. He was several centimetres taller than everyone else in the venue. It made him feel a bit oppressing.

While the waiter bowed and sucked up to him, Xiao Yuanmu didn’t bother to look at him. Someone else couldn’t watch this scene anymore and said in a criticizing tone, “This child is about the same age as you, but he’s in a worse situation than you. He can’t lose this job. Can’t you be a bit more magnanimous? Let him off this once.”

Other voices joined in, each plea for leniency mixed with a tone of criticism. Everyone attacked Xiao Yuanmu. However, he remained composed, not the least bit swayed, as if he couldn’t hear them.

Just when the crowd was about to blow up at his unmoved appearance, Song Jiabao walked over. “What’s happening?”

Someone promptly explained what had happened. When Song Jiabao heard this, he sneered and looked at Xiao Yuanmu. “You’re not willing to let go of a waiter who made a tiny little mistake? If it wasn’t for my fickle-hearted little cousin, you’d have to bow your head and fawn over others like this waiter. What are you feeling so superior for?”

As soon as Song Jiabao had spoken, the surrounding area went silent. The scene of Song Xuanhe calling Song Jiabao out had engraved too deep of an impression on them. They hadn’t thought that Song Jiabao would dare act so arrogant towards Song Xuanhe’s lover after that. But, they were shocked at Song Jiabao’s words. They hadn’t expected that Xiao Yuanmu came from a poor family either.

After all, no matter how you looked at him, there was a distant, noble air around Xiao Yuanmu that made it hard to approach him. What poverty-stricken person could have an aura like this?

However, they also believed that Song Jiabao wouldn’t lie to the other’s face. Furthermore, Song Xuanhe was also here. Therefore, it was even less likely that he would spout nonsense.

Despite having such lowly origins, he had been able to seduce the Song Family’s little young master. This man wasn’t simple, ah.

The majority of people’s expressions changed. Their misgivings in the beginning turned into concealed disdain. They had thought that he was a lofty figure, but he was really just a gold digger.

Song Jiabao was very satisfied, seeing everyone’s gaze change. He couldn’t do anything about Song Xuanhe, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t do anything about the boyfriend he was keeping.

Furthermore, Song Jiabao wasn’t worried that Song Xuanhe would stick up for this man. After all, he understood his cousin well. He didn’t actually like Xiao Yuanmu. His boyfriends were nothing but good-looking toys to him.

Song Jiabao’s eyes were full of glee. He said to the waiter, “Don’t apologize to him. An orphan like him isn’t any nobler than you. I am the host of this banquet. I will handle this. Let’s all forget about this.”

The waiter was overjoyed to hear this. He promptly said, “Thank you, Boss Song. I will definitely repay Boss Song’s kindness.”

These words were clearly ridiculing Xiao Yuanmu for his lack of good conscience.

Song Jiabao nodded, putting on airs. He raised his hand, telling the waiter to leave.

The waiter was about to leave. However, before he could take two steps, he heard a clear melodious male voice say, “Wait a second. Don’t leave just yet.”
