I wonder if Qin Keqin can see it.
Yin Qin also noticed it.
No man would willingly accompany a woman like this, unless he was genuinely interested in her.
Luo Xiaolang and Joe had left the Yin Family Villa early because the little tiger had fallen asleep.
Everyone was watching the backs of the two n leaving.
Qin Keqin, who initially maintained a pleasant expression, lapsed into a mont of irritation after Luo Xiaolang left. She said, "It’s late, you all should leave soon. I’m tired, and I need to rest."
Yin Qin was utterly speechless at his mother’s attitude.
Ji Baixin was incredibly tolerant towards everyone this evening. She said, "Okay, Yin Qin and I will co back more often."
"Let’s discuss this later." Qin Keqin made a half-hearted refusal, and then stopped with a warning, "If you’re really coming, make a call in advance. It would be awkward if you co at an inconvenient ti, like today."
"Okay," Ji Baixin nodded.
Qin Keqin couldn’t figure out why Ji Baixin had had such a change of heart, but she thought that Yin Qin and Ji Baixin needed to have a good relationship. A good relationship would not affect Luo Xiaolang’s love life, so she didn’t deliberately try to embarrass Ji Baixin any further. She said, "It’s late, you should go back and rest."
Tossing off this comnt, she and Yin Bin went upstairs.
Ji Baixin watched the backs of Qin Keqin and Yin Bin and couldn’t help but let out a little chuckle. "Your mom really doesn’t like much."
"It’s just the beginning, it’ll get better later." Yin Qin comforted.
"I know but I still feel a bit disappointed. But it doesn’t matter since we’re together, I will surely accept your family in due course."
"Baixin, your change surprised ," said Yin Qin sincerely.
"That’s because I genuinely feel you have been good to ."
Yin Qin faintly smiled.
He thought, this was all he needed.
If he could live harmoniously with Ji Baixin, even if their relationship was not as emotional as before, they could still carry on like this.
He owed Ji Baixin too much, and he would repay all this with his lifeti.
Ji Baixin willingly moved into Yin Qin’s arms.
Yin Qin tightly held Ji Baixin.
The two of them appeared to be very intimate.
For so reason, Luo Xiaolang always walked in on Yin Qin and Ji Baixin during their intimate monts.
She didn’t know if this was just a coincidence or if the couple always acted so affectionately when no one else was around.
Now she finally understood that this was how a couple interacted, not like her past relationship with Yin Qin.
Her appearance made Yin Qin and Ji Baixin a bit awkward all over again.
The two silently let go of each other.
Luo Xiaolang explained, "I didn’t do it on purpose, the little tiger’s bottle was forgotten."
Just after feeding, she forgot to put it in the mummy bag.
It was only upon leaving that she rembered.
Little Tiger was particular about his bottle. If the nipple was switched, he might stop feeding altogether.
She had left and then turned right back around.
And ca back to find them.
Yin Qin and Ji Baixin watched as Luo Xiaolang quickly took the bottle and left.
She seed genuinely afraid of disturbing them.
Ji Baixin said, "We are always seen, I don’t know why we are so unlucky."
Yin Qin was so upset, he even put on a fake smile.
He suddenly thought that in all the ti he’d been with Luo Xiaolang, they never behaved like a couple the way he and Ji Baixin did.
"We should leave now and go ho. We have work tomorrow." Ji Baixin suggested.
Yin Qin nodded.
Yin Qin had had so drinks that night, so Ji Baixin was the one to drive.
Yin Qin sat in the passenger seat, sowhat silent.
Ji Baixin could feel his gloomy mood, she asked, "What’s wrong? You don’t seem to be in high spirits."
"It’s nothing. Maybe I’m just feeling a bit tired," Yin Qin replied indifferently.
"Are you thinking about the little tiger?" Ji Baixin asked.
Yin Qin paused.
No.
Yet, ntioning Little Tiger at this mont, he did feel a sense of sadness.
Little Tiger had already started rejecting him.
Little Tiger had already started treating him as a stranger.
His throat bobbed with emotion.
Ji Baixin clearly sensed Yin Qin’s mood, she suggested, "Have you ever thought about bringing Little Tiger back to be with you?"
Yin Qin reacted strongly, swiftly turning to stare at Ji Baixin.
Ji Baixin calmly continued to drive.
She remained calm despite Yin Qin’s emotional turmoil, "I’m rely suggesting. Seeing that you and your Auntie love Little Tiger so much, have you considered letting him live with you? Living with you should be better for him in the future."
"We haven’t given it a thought. My mother and I’ve never thought about this." Yin Qin’s voice rose, filled with rare indignation towards Ji Baixin. He repressed his anger and said, "Little Tiger is the child that Luo Xiaolang paid with her life to bring into this world, my mother and I have never considered taking him away from her."
"Don’t get so worked up, I was just speaking out of turn. I just think that if Little Tiger lived with your family, he would probably be better off. After all, Xiaolang is still young and doesn’t understand much. Moreover, her current profession is e-sports. Regardless of its lack of professional recognition within society, but to most people it is still just a ga. Especially for children without self-control, it can be easy to get addicted. I was just considering things from Little Tiger’s perspective, there were no ulterior motives."
"Xiaolang can take good care of him," Yin Qin affird.
"Hmm, if that’s the case, I won’t say any more." Ji Baixin chuckled lightly.
Yin Qin didn’t want to argue with Ji Baixin over this, so he didn’t say anymore.
But he genuinely had never considered taking Little Tiger away from Luo Xiaolang. Even if he never had a second child in his life, Little Tiger would still belong to Xiaolang.
...
At this mont, inside another car.
Luo Xiaolang drove in silence.
Joe cradled Little Tiger in the back seat, with the little one fast asleep and looking adorable.
In this quiet space.
Joe suddenly asked, "Have you always been quiet?"
Luo Xiaolang was taken aback, then slowly nodded, "Yes."
"I thought you kept quiet during live streams to differentiate yourself from other strears—apart from when you comnt on the gas, you never speak. I didn’t realize that you’re actually like this."
"Hmm. I’m not good at talking, so I tend not to speak."
"Speaking is a personal right, why care so much about others’ opinions."
Luo Xiaolang’s heart fluttered.
For so reason, she always found Joe’s words warming.
Joe said, "It’s obvious that Miss Qin really likes you."
"She’s been very good to ."
"And you’re not bad to her either," Joe confird.
Luo Xiaolang nodded, "Isn’t all love reciprocated?"
"Is it?" Joe smirked, sowhat cryptically.
"Yes," Luo Xiaolang responded affirmatively.
"If I’m good to you, will you also be good to ?" Joe suddenly asked.
Taken aback, Luo Xiaolang obediently nodded, "Yes."
"Then rember, I’ll be very good to you," Joe said, his usual gentleness replaced with a sudden assertiveness, "So you have to be very good to !"
"Alright." Luo Xiaolang agreed without a second thought.
Joe really admired Luo Xiaolang.
Did she really understand what he was saying? She just agreed so easily.
But that’s okay, there are still many long days ahead.
They’re very long, and he believed he could slowly let her understand his intentions.
The car had arrived at the residential quarter’s underground parking lot.
The two of them got out of the car.
Luo Xiaolang said she’d carry the baby tiger.
The baby tiger was actually a bit heavy for a six-month-old.
Joe didn’t mind, saying he’ll carry it. That way, they wouldn’t wake up the sleeping baby tiger.
Luo Xiaolang didn’t say anything else.
They took the elevator.
Song Zhizhi just got off work and was also taking the elevator when she ran into Luo Xiaolang. It was a pleasant surprise.
She eagerly looked at the sleeping baby tiger, then noticed the man holding the baby tiger after a while.
Joe quickly introduced himself, "Hello, I’m Joe. Currently the team captain in Xiaolang’s esports competition."
"Hello, I’m Song Zhizhi." Song Zhizhi said politely.
She couldn’t help but dwell on the implications of the word "currently."
"Hmm, yeah, I recognize you. You’re pretty famous in Yanshang Country. I didn’t expect you to be so pretty in person."
"You’re too kind." Song Zhizhi responded with a smile, "Where have you guys been? You’re returning so late."
"Miss Qin said she missed the baby tiger, so I brought it back for her to see. Joe was free today and drove over." Luo Xiaolang explained.
"Oh." Song Zhizhi added a slight drawl to her reply.
Nobody would do such a thing without a reason, right?
It seed to her that there was sothing fishy about Luo Xiaolang and this God Joe.
The elevator arrived.
Luo Xiaolang and Joe exited together.
Song Zhizhi watched their retreating figures.
There’s a drama unfolding here.
She smiled at the corner of her mouth.
When she got ho, she was all smiles.
Upon hearing her opening the door, Ji Baijian, with Tank in tow, t her at the door only to find her in a good mood.
"What good thing has happened to my wife today?" Ji Baijian asked.
Song Zhizhi’s smile was radiant, "I saw Luo Xiaolang with a man."
"Hmm?"
"A man who looks a hundred tis better than Yin Qin."
"Looks are not everything for a man."
"There’s no man worse than Yin Qin for Xiaolang in this world. So any man would be better than Yin Qin and by a lot!"
"..." He couldn’t argue with that logic.
"I wonder if there will be a follow-up." Song Zhizhi was even more excited than Luo Xiaolang.
Ji Baijian, despite his advanced years, didn’t quite understand won.
It seed like at any ti, gossip was an indispensable part of their lives.
He had to disturb his wife’s enjoynt, and asked, "How is Ye Wenhan?"
"Are you afraid I can’t beat him?"
"No, I trust my wife."
"I’ve gotten pretty much all the evidence I can get." Song Zhizhi said, smiling.
"Then let’s choose an auspicious date to expose him."
"..." Choose an auspicious date?
Ji Baijian, being the man he was, was pretty ruthless.
She suddenly seed serious, "Do you know who’s been helping with all this?"
"Who?" Ji Baijian seed interested.
"Song Zhidao." Song Zhizhi stressed every word.
Ji Baijian nodded slightly.
"In Comrcial Managent, apart from my younger brother, I don’t trust anyone, not even my father. Also, after so many years of Ye Taiting’s reign in Comrcial Managent, almost all the people are theirs. I dare not use them casually. Hence, I have to rely on my younger brother. I reasoned that Ye Wenhan would have people closely monitoring , so it was risky for to take action myself. I didn’t expect my younger brother to be so clever. In just over a week, he helped get the evidence of Ye Wenhan embezzling public funds and shortchanging on the material."
"Your younger brother is pretty good." Ji Baijian praised generously.
"What I an is, if you take over Comrcial Managent in the future, can my younger brother help you there?"
"Why not?" Ji Baijian countered.
A smile crept onto the corner of Song Zhizhi’s mouth.
"For , to have a trusted person by my side, why not?"
"Do you trust my younger brother?"
"My wife thinks I shouldn’t?"
"No, it’s just that you don’t trust people easily." Because he was too cunning.
"My wife is correct. But I trust my wife and anyone related to my wife."
That didn’t sound like a cheesy romantic statent, but it touched her coming out from old Ji Baijian.
After being moved, she really wanted to bear a son for Ji Baijian.
So she made her move then and there.
"My wife..." Though his words seed filled with resistance, yet the next second he beca "impolite".
...
The next day.
Song Zhizhi was sitting at Comrcial Managent.
Yes.
She made a mistake.
The mistake was that she shouldn’t have been so forward.
The consequences were terrible.
Today, she could barely keep her back straight.
Sitting in her office, she felt as uncomfortable as if she were sitting on pins and needles.
Outside her office door, her younger brother knocked and ca in.
Song Zhizhi quickly tried to sit up straight, looking very serious.
With one look, Song Zhidao noticed the fatigue in his sister’s eyes and couldn’t help laughing, "Brother-in-law is a handso man indeed, but my sister, you should take it easy."
"Song Zhidao!" Song Zhizhi flared up.
Once flared up, her back pain worsened.
Song Zhidao couldn’t help but burst out laughing, "Sis, my brother-in-law looks like soone who isn’t prone to excessive indulgence, but in fact, he is very... robust!"
"..." Accurate.
Song Zhizhi was quite hit by Song Zhidao’s words.
Before marrying Ji Baijian, she always thought he wasn’t good at "that."
After marrying him, she admitted she was terribly wrong.
