She unconsciously stepped back.
Her calves bumped into the soft Princess bed, and under Ji Yebai’s cold, stern gaze, she flopped down onto the bed!
Swallowing, Ning Xixi uneasily said, "Give the ticket."
She reached out her hand towards Ji Yebai.
His deep gaze fell on the pale, delicate little hand in front of him, an inexplicable irritability rising within him.
He sneered, "The concert is tonight at eight o’clock. What dinner are you talking about? Hurry up and go et your beloved Gong Xiu!"
Ning Xixi retorted angrily, "Can’t you speak nicely? Why be so fierce!"
"Of course, I can’t compare to your gentle Gong Xiu," Ji Yebai responded with a biting tone, looking down at Ning Xixi with mocking eyes, "Too bad, despite all your scheming and chasing after him for so long, he still doesn’t like you, but uses you instead!"
Having said that, he slapped the ticket onto the table and strode out of Ning Xixi’s room, slamming the door forcefully!
Ning Xixi clenched the ticket in her palm, a trace of confusion flashing across her face.
Suddenly... she felt like not going.
Looking at the ti, it was six o’clock, enough for her to change into a pretty dress and put on so light makeup, but Ning Xixi didn’t feel like moving at all and lay spread-eagled on the bed.
Downstairs.
Seeing Ji Yebai co downstairs alone, his mother asked in confusion, "Is Xixi not feeling well? Why isn’t she coming down for dinner?"
"Don’t bother with her, she won’t die."
His cold tone carried impatience and displeasure.
"Yebai," his mother sighed, "You’re a boy, you should be more considerate towards Xixi."
Ji Yebai simply ate his al without responding.
......
"Red beans, big red beans! Taro, rub rub rub..."
The ringtone echoed in the room, and Ning Xixi lazily pressed the answer button: "Hello?"
From the other side of the phone, Cheng Youran’s crying voice ca through: "Xixi... sob sob sob..."
Ning Xixi imdiately sat up, "What happened? Youran, don’t cry, calm down and tell what’s going on!"
Cheng Youran bit her lip, finding it hard to speak.
Seeing her hesitating, a waiter rudely snatched the phone, "Your friend owes our restaurant thirty-six thousand! Hurry over here, or we’ll have to ’handle things’ ourselves."
He emphasized the last word heavily, making Ning Xixi’s heart pound.
"I’ll be right there, don’t lay a finger on her!"
"Hurry, our address: XXX..."
After hanging up the phone, Ning Xixi quickly changed clothes and rushed downstairs.
"Xixi, it’s so late, where are you going?" Ji’s mother asked gently.
Ning Xixi didn’t have ti to explain, hurriedly changing her shoes in the entryway: "Auntie, it’s an ergency! I’ll talk when I get back."
Ji Yebai gripped his chopsticks tightly, all this fuss just for a stupid concert!
Damn it!
......
As the night deepened.
Ning Xixi hailed a cab, and gave Gong Xiu a call: "I’m sorry, I can’t make it to the concert tonight."
