Upon hearing Ji Hanyu’s words, Xiao Bei, who was still exhilarated, was montarily stunned, and his smile froze on his face.
Ji Hanyu wasn’t soone who spoke recklessly, issued random orders, or acted without thought.
"Are you suspicious?" Xiao Bei paused before saying, "You’re suspicious of Bai Haoxue’s father..."
Ji Hanyu: "You just need to be more careful when studying those research notes, don’t spread anything without evidence..."
"I understand." After hanging up the phone, Xiao Bei looked at the pile of work notebooks.
The excitent and thrill vanished instantly, and the treasure in his hand seed to turn into a hot potato.
If this really contained research about a new virus, could Ji Hanyu and Bai Haoxue continue moving forward?
...
After hanging up, Ji Hanyu leaned back in his chair, a face full of doubt and contemplation.
He hoped things weren’t as he suspected.
Ji Hanyu closed his eyes and rested in the chair for a mont, massaging his brow, ready to leave.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
From the knock, he could sense the visitor’s guilt.
Having avoided him for so many days, finally having the courage to co back.
Ji Hanyu’s lips curled slightly, but the smile looked dangerous.
"Co in..."
The two emotionless words made Ji Yiyi, who ca to admit his mistakes, tremble with fear.
Ji Yiyi timidly nudged the door open just a crack, enough to show only his head.
Ji Yiyi’s head was in, but most of his body was still outside, cautiously probing, "Brother..."
Ji Hanyu didn’t even look at him, just said expressionlessly, "Say what you need to say."
This was not much different from usual; did it an he was in a good mood or a bad one?
If he was in a bad mood, perhaps he should co another day, avoid for a few more days.
Ji Yiyi gulped, deciding to probe again, "Brother... Was there anything that made you happy today? Is your mood splendid? Splendid? Or splendid?"
Ji Hanyu: "..."
"Aren’t you the best at reading people?" Ji Hanxing said mockingly, "So, why can’t you tell now?"
Ji Yiyi, dumbfounded: "..."
He was indeed good at reading people, but his brother’s level was too high, his cultivation was not enough.
On that handso face, there wasn’t a trace of emotion, how could he read him?
Ji Yiyi laughed heartily, his face full of a pleasingly sycophantic smile, "Um... Brother, I recently made a tiny... tiny... tiny... teeeeensy mistake, could you, on account of being so cute and handso, use a little less of your strength when you make your move later?"
Ji Hanyu: "..."

Bai Haoxue had just finished washing up when little Beiting sneaked over to find her, and Bai Haoxue chuckled, "Darling, don’t worry, your dad is still in the study, he won’t kick you out."
Little Beiting made a shushing gesture, ran over to grab Bai Haoxue’s hand, and then pulled her out.
Bai Haoxue looked puzzled but followed, "Darling, where are you taking ?"
Little Beiting said, "Sister, although my Third Uncle is a worriso troublemaker, he is quite adorable. He’s about to be disciplined by my dad, it’s really pitiful, so I’m taking you to save him."
Bai Haoxue: "..."
So she really had beco the talisman and imperial decree?
