Only then did she realize she had been blocked.

Gazing at He Li and Miao Xiaoyu's retreating figures in the pharmacy, Liu Yuyan's face turned pale, and she felt extremely uneasy.

Beside her, Li Feng, due to Miao Xiaoyu's words just now, was not in the mood to care about Liu Yuyan's feelings; she just frantically explained, "Yu Yan, Miao Xiaoyu is just trying to sow discord. You absolutely must not believe her."

"We've been good best friend (girlfriends) for years!"

"There's no way I would ever trick you!"

After speaking, she secretly winked at Li Lingjie.

The latter understood and quickly said, "Li Feng is right."

"You two have been good friends for years, and your bond is deep."

"Miao Xiaoyu is just trying to sow discord. Yu Yan, why don't we go grab a meal and think things over calmly?"

"Anyway, it's almost noon!"

"There's a nice restaurant nearby, my treat!"

As he spoke, Li Feng immediately agreed.

Liu Yuyan, whose mind was in turmoil, didn't refute him.

She really needed to calm down and think things through.

However, before leaving, Liu Yuyan still couldn't help but look up towards the pharmacy, hoping He Li would turn around. Yet, inside the pharmacy, He Li was discussing medication with the clerk and didn't look at her at all.

Liu Yuyan's unease grew stronger, but at the moment, she didn't know what to do and could only leave first.

Meanwhile, inside the pharmacy...

"Are you sure you want all three hundred boxes?"

Inside the pharmacy, the clerk, holding a box of Shennong Brand Stomach Relief Capsules priced at 80 yuan, asked He Li in astonishment.

The latter nodded, "That's right!"

"This... alright!" Although the clerk was puzzled why He Li wanted to buy so much medicine, not making money when it's offered is foolish. He was very happy to do this business, but He Li didn't have that much money on him.

He could only borrow money from Miao Xiaoyu and successfully bought all the medicine, worth over twenty thousand yuan.

However, there was too much to carry.

So, the medicine was temporarily left at the store.

He Li planned to spend all the money they earned together yesterday, then notify Wu Gang to drive over and pick up the items.

"That Shennong Brand Capsule really didn't pass quality inspection?"

After leaving the pharmacy, Miao Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask.

He Li nodded, "It shouldn't be wrong!"

"However..." He continued with a smile, "If, by any chance, I'm mistaken, then I'll lose everything."

"And I won't be able to repay the money I borrowed from you!"

"What do you think I should do then?"

Hearing this, Miao Xiaoyu pouted and mumbled, "That little bit of money isn't even a tenth of my pocket money. If it's a gift, it's a gift. If you don't have money, I can support you for the rest of my life!"

"Hmm? What did you say?" He Li leaned closer.

Miao Xiaoyu panicked, her face flushed as she softly replied, "No... I mean, if you can't pay it back, then I... I'll pester you for the rest of your life until you can pay me back!"

The words were out, but they sounded off no matter how she heard them.

After Miao Xiaoyu finished speaking, she realized what she said and became even more flustered and shy.

"No, I... I mean..."

She stammered an explanation, flustered.

He Li, however, narrowed his eyes and interrupted her, feigning seriousness, "You trust me so much, I will definitely pay back your money!" Hearing this, Miao Xiaoyu actually calmed down, letting out a slightly disappointed "Oh."

Her head lowered, somewhat dejected and disappointed, she resembled a wilted little bok choy.

Seeing this, He Li's eyes darted, and he spoke again... "However..." Miao Xiaoyu immediately perked up her ears.

He Li's lips curved upwards: "However, I'm planning to start a business and need a lot of startup capital. I might need to borrow your money for a long time in the future, and if I accidentally lose it and can't repay you, don't blame me!"

Miao Xiaoyu smiled like a blooming flower upon hearing this.

"It's okay, just use it!"

She said happily, almost adding, "I wish you couldn't pay it back so I could pester you."

He Li looked at her joyful little face, deeply suspecting whether this girl would intentionally make him lose money in the future just to have an excuse to pester him. He hoped she would go easy on him.

But thoughts aside, He Li actually knew that Miao Xiaoyu wasn't the kind of girl who would act recklessly.

If he asked her for help... she would help him without reservation.

"Speaking of which, you're quite good at drawing, aren't you?"

As if he thought of something, He Li suddenly asked.

Miao Xiaoyu nodded, "I used to be interested in drawing, and my family hired a special teacher to teach me."

"What's wrong? Why ask about this suddenly?"

He Li knew Miao Xiaoyu was good at drawing because she had given him a handmade birthday card when he celebrated his birthday. His sudden question now was also in preparation for future creation.

"Actually, I have two directions for my entrepreneurship."

"One of them is the gaming industry!"

He Li pondered for two seconds and continued, "I plan to make a small game first to see if I can earn more capital for development, and at the same time, build our reputation to lay the foundation for future development."

"As you know, making game characters requires an artist..."

"You want me to handle the art side?" Miao Xiaoyu understood immediately.

He Li nodded, "How about it? Are you willing?"

"Of course I'm willing!" Miao Xiaoyu nodded immediately.

Then she curiously asked, "Can you make games?"

"Game production requires solid skills!"

"Don't worry!" He Li smiled.

In his previous life, he loved programming.

Even though because of Liu Yuyan, he didn't choose his hobby in his previous life and opted for other industries, he didn't give up his hobby in his free time and often took on freelance work from other game companies.

So he was very familiar with this aspect.

Recalling various events from his previous life, He Li and Miao Xiaoyu continued to purchase medicines as they walked.

They had visited most of the pharmacies on Hongyun Street.

By this time, it was already noon!

Originally, He Li planned to take Miao Xiaoyu to a nearby restaurant for a meal.

But Miao Xiaoyu pulled him, her face flushed with shyness, saying, "Actually... actually, I prepared lunch today and brought it!" As she spoke, she opened the small backpack she had been carrying on her back.

Two lunchboxes appeared before them.

He Li was a bit surprised, "When did you prepare this?"

"Just this morning!" Miao Xiaoyu replied with a smile.

He Li suddenly understood. No wonder he called Miao Xiaoyu early, but she wasn't ready until nine o'clock. It turned out she spent most of her time preparing their lunch for today.

"Shall we eat over there?" Miao Xiaoyu pointed to a nearby leisure chair.

He Li nodded, "Hmm, and wait a moment."

"I'll go buy some drinks!" Saying that, he quickly walked to a nearby Milk Tea Shop and bought two cups of milk tea.

When he returned to the leisure chair, Miao Xiaoyu was pleasantly surprised to find that He Li had bought her favorite Pure Coconut Jelly Milk Tea. She couldn't help but ask softly, "How did you know what I like to drink?"

"I happened to see it, and remembered!"

He Li responded softly with a smile.

Miao Xiaoyu fell silent, just lowering her head and smiling, her cheeks flushed, like peach blossoms just beginning to bloom.

He Li didn't say anything more either.

He picked up the lunch Miao Xiaoyu had prepared for him and ate, occasionally praising Miao Xiaoyu's cooking. Miao Xiaoyu listened to his words, sometimes putting food on his plate, her smile never fading.

The two looked like a truly sweet couple, making passersby nearby envious.

And at this moment, in a restaurant not far away... Liu Yuyan and her two companions, who were dining, also saw He Li and Miao Xiaoyu on the leisure chair from a distance through the window.

Watching Miao Xiaoyu prepare lunch for He Li... watching He Li thoughtfully buy drinks for Miao Xiaoyu... watching them happily put food on each other's plates with sweet smiles... Liu Yuyan's heart was filled with endless panic.

She felt He Li was drifting away from her!

Miao Xiaoyu might really take away her He Li.

The thought of He Li no longer belonging to her suddenly made Liu Yuyan feel a pang of heartache. She had a vague feeling that He Li wasn't playing hard to get with her at all.

If she didn't do something soon, she and He Li would become strangers, unable to return to how they were before.

Thinking of this, Liu Yuyan finally couldn't hold back.

She took out her phone, wanting to call He Li.

But when she called, she found she had been blacklisted!

She didn't know when she had been blacklisted.

Because she had never actively called He Li these past few days.

But now, Liu Yuyan wasn't in the mood to dwell on when He Li blacklisted her. Instead, the discovery that He Li had blacklisted her made Liu Yuyan even more certain that He Li really wasn't planning to pursue her anymore.

She frantically opened WeChat, QQ, and other social media apps with He Li's contact information, wanting to reach out to He Li.

She didn't want to endure it anymore; she wanted to reconcile with He Li!

"Miao Xiaoyu, I won't give you a chance!"

"He Li is mine, I will never give him to you!"

"As long as I humble myself, He Li will definitely choose me again..."

She thought to herself, her eyes full of hostility, staring intently at Miao Xiaoyu in the distance through the glass!

Only then did she realize she had been blacklisted.
