"Xixi!"
Hearing the footsteps getting closer behind her, along with this somewhat intimate way of addressing her, Lu Nianxi stopped in her tracks.
"Xixi." Ming Chengyue caught up with her and said, "Let's talk."
Lu Nianxi held up two slender, fair, and beautiful fingers, "First, don't call me Xixi, I've told you many times. Second, aside from professional matters, there's nothing else we have to talk about."
"Xi... Nianxi, we were clearly like friends before. Just because you're in a relationship now, you can't even have friends? Is this something your boyfriend demands? Isn't he a little too petty?"
Lu Nianxi laughed, "There's no need for sarcasm here. It's not that my boyfriend demands it; I just don't want any entanglement with you. Be it friends or classmates, the most important thing is to know your place. If you just see me as an ordinary friend, I naturally have no objections."
The implication was that he didn't see her as just an ordinary friend.
