Volume 22 (Awkward Mid-Part 3) Recap: Me... I quietly stepped forward and paid the bill directly! Xiao Pei was completely stunned by my sudden move! You...

Either take turns, or pay for yourselves, otherwise, I won't make plans next time! Hearing what I said, Xiao Pei pondered for a moment... Xiao Pei: Okay! Then I'll do as you say! Me: Friends, to be continued...
