It took Ji Yiyi and Li Mingmo a long ti to recover their composure.
"Yiyi, let’s go..." Li Mingmo simply couldn’t believe it; there’s no way Ji Hanyu could hold back. "Let’s head straight to that Western restaurant, wine, candles, steak—who says two guys can’t have a romantic ti?"
Ji Yiyi: "..."
He could only think, two guys going to a Western restaurant and making it all romantic, it really makes people imagine... things.
Ji Hanyu said, "To prevent you two from being watched and talked about, I’ll take one for the team and go with you."
Ji Yiyi: "..."
Li Mingmo: "..."

Ye Jinyan set the ti for noon.
So, Bai Haoxue headed to the office first to take care of business.
As noon approached, Bai Haoxue was about to leave when she noticed Ye Jinyan already waiting downstairs.
When he saw Bai Haoxue coming down, Ye Jinyan paused for a long mont before walking over to her.
For a mont, neither of them spoke...
anwhile, in the private room of the Western restaurant across the street, Ji Yiyi and Li Mingmo were each holding a high-power telescope, observing with one eye open and the other closed, as if they were conducting a reconnaissance mission.
Ji Hanyu sat there composed, his face expressionless, reverting to his usual impassive look.
Suddenly, Ji Yiyi shouted out, "Ahhhh... it’s not good, not good, not good at all, bro."
Ji Hanyu: "Why are you making such a fuss? No sense of decency at all?"
Ji Yiyi: "...Bro, at this point, does decency even matter? Co and look, quickly co and look."
Ji Hanyu’s calm expression shifted a little, showing signs of strain.
Li Mingmo’s eyes glead.
They usually couldn’t outwit Ji Hanyu.
But today... everything seed to align just right!
So, Li Mingmo added fuel to the fire, "Ahhhh... it’s over, it’s over, it’s really over, Ji Hanyu, you’re done for, Bai Haoxue she... Bai Haoxue she..."
Ji Hanyu interrupted Li Mingmo sternly, "Li Mingmo, if you’re heartbroken, deal with it yourself. Don’t drag into it. If you dare jinx and my wife again, I’ll imdiately propose to Xi Wei’s dad and have Ji Yiyi marry Xi Wei."
Li Mingmo: "..."
Ji Yiyi: "..."
Did his brother just sell him out like that??!!
A classic two-birds-one-stone scenario.
Once again, he and Li Mingmo were KO’d.
"Fine, fine, fine..." Li Mingmo tossed the telescope aside, pointing at Ji Hanyu, but his hand was trembling, "Ji Hanyu, you’re sothing else..."
Li Mingmo pointed for ages, but couldn’t muster a single retort.
Ji Hanyu: "Of course I am, but that’s not sothing you should be concerned with. It’s Bai Haoxue’s privilege, and you’ve overstepped."
Li Mingmo: "..."
Damn it!!!
Ji Yiyi: "..."
He’s still a kid; he doesn’t understand any of this.
anwhile, downstairs, Ye Jinyan was silent, but Bai Haoxue finally spoke up, "Ye Jinyan... I feel like there’s no need for us to have lunch together.
Eating should be a joyful and pleasant thing, but looking at you... to be honest with you, I just can’t do it.
I asked my assistant to arrange a eting with you because I have sothing to ask you.
If you don’t mind, we can clear things up right here.
Four years ago, when I gave birth in the hospital... you told my child died right after birth... did he... did he really die?"
