He did not answer the phone call that woke Xia Qingyue.

He glanced at the visitor and then promptly hung up.

If Yao Yuyan answered the phone in the car with Xia Qingyue beside her, it would definitely be a disaster.

The restaurant Xia Qingyue booked was quite far away; it took ten minutes to drive there.

Xia Qingyue had almost wiped away the marks on Bai Ye's face, leaving only the hickeys on her neck that she couldn't remove no matter what she did.

Xia Qingyue picked up a band-aid from somewhere and applied it to the mark on Bai Ye's right neck.

Looking at it this way, Bai Ye has a band-aid on each side, which is quite symmetrical, but it just looks particularly strange.

It looks really strange.

Bai Ye stopped the car and looked at her with a wry smile:

"Sister Qingyue, could you please give me a heads-up next time?"

"Mental preparation?"

Xia Qingyue parted her red lips slightly, reached out and stood up, directly grabbing the left side of Bai Ye's car door.

He cornered Bai Ye with a wall slam.

"How...do you plan to prepare?" She stuck out her little clove-like tongue and licked her lips.

Bai Ye subconsciously swallowed, feeling a surge of heat within him.

Silently recite in your heart: Form is emptiness, emptiness is form!

However, it had no effect whatsoever. It was as if Xia Qingyue had a buff, and her charm value was immediately maxed out.

?? ??!

As his breathing became more rapid, Bai Ye felt utterly useless. As a boy, he had been repeatedly pinned against the wall by a girl, and he was powerless to resist.

The word "waste" seemed to be engraved on his forehead.

Bai Ye smiled bitterly to himself, wondering why he always had to switch between offense and defense whenever he was with Xia Qingyue.

Does he have no choice but to obediently accept being the one who takes the blame?

Bai Ye sensed something was wrong; as a man…

The next second, Xia Qingyue's face zoomed in rapidly, just as Bai Ye thought Xia Qingyue was about to kiss him.

It stopped.

The two were very close, almost only a centimeter apart, and their noses were about to collide.

The car was unusually quiet; you couldn't hear any sound except for the air conditioning.

Both of them were breathing rapidly, and Bai Ye subconsciously closed his eyes.

But the gentle touch of lips I had imagined didn't come.

I felt a little disappointed without realizing it.

The next moment, his forehead was touched by a smooth surface.

Their foreheads were slightly touching, and Xia Qingyue's nose touched Bai Ye's nose.

He subconsciously opened his eyes and saw Xia Qingyue's eyes were also tightly closed, and his long eyelashes were fluttering slightly.

It looks so tempting, so alluring.

The night wind is gentle, but it cannot dispel the stirring of emotion, nor can it erase the indelible rosy glow.

...

Bai Ye didn't know how he got out of the car. He seemed a little dazed, his mind filled with Xia Qingyue's long eyelashes.

After Xia Qingyue got out of the passenger seat, she handed her bag to Bai Ye.

He gestured for him to take it, and just as Bai Ye draped it over his left shoulder, his right arm was embraced by two soft hands.

Xia Qingyue has a great figure, with curves in all the right places.

Her breasts aren't very big, but I'd guess at least a C cup, maybe a D cup.

At least the softness coming from the right hand is undeniable.

Xia Qingyue held Bai Ye's hands with both of hers, as if she were leaning on his shoulders.

The restaurant is located on a street with a very high volume of foot traffic.

Bai Ye could feel many piercing stares.

After all, Xia Qingyue's appearance and temperament are unique and very attractive.

Bai Ye, on the other hand, is rather ordinary and is easily overlooked, but then she becomes someone important.

After all, it's even more astonishing to see such an ordinary person with a stunningly beautiful woman.

Some were envious, some were jealous.

The incredulous yet admiring gazes, in particular, gave Bai Ye a headache while also making him secretly pleased.

Although I think you've misunderstood, I'm actually quite pleased with myself.

Xia Qingyue looked at the vain little man beside her with a half-smile: "Enjoying it?"

"Cough cough... I'm alright!"

Bai Ye would never admit that he was enjoying himself, whether in a physical or mental sense.

"Let's go eat!"

...

Bai Ye was a little reserved during this meal.

The wealthy woman next to him kept putting food on his plate, barely eating any herself.

The more this happens, the more awkward it becomes for Baiye.

You know, it's been so long since I've experienced something like picking up food with chopsticks.

Besides, it's someone of the opposite sex.

And putting aside whether the food at this restaurant tastes good or not, the names of the dishes are quite outrageous.

Emotions that move heaven and earth, affections that run as deep as the sea…

Each dish had a name related to love, and a heart was placed in the center of the table.

Each time the waiter announced the name of the dish, Bai Ye lowered his head a little further.

It was so embarrassing, and the waiter's gaze towards him was also strange.

She probably already considered Bai Ye as a kept man.

Bai Ye finished her meal with great difficulty.

"Are you full? Would you like some more food?"

Bai Ye's lips twitched as he looked at the 18 dishes on the table.

I have never had such a luxurious meal in my life, especially for two people.

Who orders this much food for just two people?

I can get full even if I only eat a little bit of each dish!

How could we possibly not have enough to eat?

Seeing that Xia Qingyue seemed to be planning to add more dishes, Bai Ye decisively stopped her.

"Don't spend too much, Sister Qingyue. We can't finish all of this, there's no need."

Although they are very wealthy, no one's money grows on trees, and wasting it is shameful. Besides, every dish at this restaurant is very expensive, so there is even less need for it.

Xia Qingyue gave him a strange look: "You spent money?"

"This shop is owned by one of my best friends. I come here for free; there's no way I have to pay anything."

Xia Qingyue paused, then, ignoring Bai Ye's objections, patted his head: "Besides... you know nothing about your sister's assets!"

"Cough cough cough!"

Bai Ye had just picked up his water glass to drink when he heard this and immediately choked.

Okay, okay!

I'm so ignorant!

I really don't understand the world of rich women.

This store is quite large; Bai Ye has seen branches in many places, which is enough to show that the owner is quite wealthy.

To become the best friend of someone like that, Xia Qingyue's own wealth must be considerable.

He didn't know how rich Xia Qingyue was, but Bai Ye only knew that she was really good to him.

He had long since genuinely accepted this older sister.

Bai Ye's family consists of four people. He has an older sister who is currently a teacher, and they can only see each other during winter and summer vacations.

His older sister had always been very good to him since he was little. His parents didn't remember his birthday, but she did.

She wasn't there for his eighteenth birthday, but she had already prepared a gift for him.

This is when Bai Ye truly felt the joy of her birthday.

Bai Ye hadn't felt that kind of care in a long time, but he felt it again from Xia Qingyue.

And there was also that subtle, indescribable emotion mixed in with it.
