After the two finished their meal, Ye Qingqing was already slumped over the table, waving her hands in a daze and muttering, "It was all fake!"

"Fake……"

Jiang Hua had no choice but to stand there, restraining Ye Qingqing's hands to prevent her from knocking over the things on the table and hurting herself.

Jiang Hua immediately called over a waiter to handle the situation at the table as quickly as possible before letting go of her hand, though her own forehead was covered in sweat.

"Okay, everything will be alright."

Finally, as if sensing something, Ye Qingqing stopped waving her hands, but remained lying there without making any movement.

With a long sigh, Jiang Hua got up and tried to help Ye Qingqing leave, but a woman's strength is always limited, and Jiang Hua couldn't move the drunk person at all.

Just then, Ye Qingqing's phone rang. Jiang Hua wiped the sweat from her forehead and answered the phone directly, "What's wrong?"

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to pause for a moment, then hesitated before speaking, "Jiang Hua?"

Jiang Hua simply hummed in agreement, and looking at Ye Qingqing who was starting to fidget again, said with a headache, "Qingqing is drunk, come and pick her up."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Hua leaned back on the stool, looking at Ye Qingqing with some doubt in her eyes.

What's wrong with this little girl?

Hu Haoran arrived quickly.

"Take good care of Qingqing, she'll get a headache after drinking," Jiang Hua said worriedly, her eyes filled with concern.

Hu Haoran slammed the car door shut before casually saying, "Okay, I can take you home first."

"No, you take Qingqing back. You don't need to see me off first," Jiang Hua waved her hand, refusing.

Hu Haoran didn't say much. He stepped on the gas, and the car sped away like an arrow.

The sunlight shone down, bathing everything in its radiance and beauty.

A gentle breeze swept by, and Jiang Hua took out a tissue to carefully wipe the sweat from her forehead. Every gesture and movement of hers was intriguing.

Suddenly, a pleasant ringing sound interrupted her actions.

Jiang Hua slowly reached out her hand, saw the name flashing on the screen, her eyes flickered, and she answered the phone, "Gu Yiming, what's wrong?"

"Where are you?" The voice on the other end of the phone was unusually cold, but it was not hard to hear that it contained tenderness.

"I went out to eat with Qingqing and just left. I'm about to go home." Jiang Hua said as she walked, throwing the tissue in her hand into the trash can.

Send me your address, and I'll come pick you up.

Before Jiang Hua could say anything more, he hung up the phone.

Hearing the beeping sound, Jiang Hua sighed, but her eyes were filled with happiness.

Gu Yiming arrived quickly after receiving the address.

"Are you tired today?" Gu Yiming asked gently, looking at Jiang Hua in the car.

After fastening her seatbelt, Jiang Hua looked at Gu Yiming with a smile in her eyes, "I'm not tired anymore, but I ran into Gu Nanqing and Xu Mo while shopping with Qingqing today."

Upon hearing this, a glint of arrogance flashed in Gu Yiming's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and looked at Jiang Hua with concern, "Try to have as little contact with him as possible in the future."

Jiang Hua was a little puzzled, and said softly, "It's okay."

Gu Yiming didn't say anything more, slowly started the car, and drove away.

The next day, the weather was slightly better, and the rising sun hung obliquely in the sky, shining brightly.

Gu Yiming pulled Jiang Hua out of bed early, saying, "It's a nice day, I'll go out with you."

Jiang Hua was astonished. Her dazed eyes widened suddenly. Before she could say anything more, Gu Yiming carried her into the bathroom to wash up.

Startled, Jiang Hua broke free abruptly and said, "I can do it myself, you can leave."

Gu Yiming wasn't angry; he just smiled and left.

No matter how Jiang Hua tried to persuade him to stay, Gu Yiming ignored her completely, stepped on the gas, and the two headed towards the city center.

Meanwhile, Gu Nanqing felt something was off about Xu Mo's behavior yesterday. Her brows furrowed, and she hesitated as she took out her phone.

With a swipe of his finger, Gu Nanqing finally got through on the phone.

"Wanqi, I have something I want to tell you," Gu Nanqing said directly.

The person on the other end of the phone was clearly stunned for a moment before asking with concern, "What's wrong?"

“Yesterday I met Xu Mo, and Ye Qingqing and the others. I feel that Xu Mo doesn't love you as much as you think, so I…”

When Xu Mo was mentioned, Wan Qi's eyes showed seriousness and earnestness.

Gu Nanqing continued, "You must keep a close watch on Xu Mo, and you must tell me immediately if anything happens."

Upon hearing this, a hint of sadness flashed in Wan Qi's eyes. She cleared her throat before saying, "I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Wan Qi sat blankly on the stool, looking up at the deep blue sky, speechless.

She gently covered her chest with her hand, but couldn't hide the pain in her eyes.

After sitting by the roadside for a long time, Wanqi finally suppressed her sadness, slowly got up, and went home.

When she returned to the hotel, it was already dark. Wan Qi rubbed her aching feet, her brows furrowed.

When Xu Mo saw Wan Qi return, he asked with concern, "Why are you so late today?"

Wan Qi raised her eyes, glanced at the person sitting on the sofa, suppressed the deep pain in her eyes, and said lightly, "I had some things to take care of, so I came back late."

Have you eaten? If not, I'll go order some.

Seeing Xu Mo nod slightly, Wan Qi turned and left immediately, still wearing the same outfit she had just returned in.

Seeing this, Xu Mo was a little puzzled, so he got up and leaned against the window, looking at the night view outside.

When Wanqi returned, the sky had completely darkened.

The food that was delivered was delicious, but Wanqi only ate a few bites and then stopped moving, sitting there blankly like a wooden doll.

"What's wrong?" Xu Mo put down his chopsticks and asked with concern.

Upon hearing this, Wan Qi opened her dazed eyes and looked at Xu Mo, her eyes filled with pain. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but only sighed and then shook her head.

Xu Mo frowned, stretched out his long arm, and directly pinched Wan Qi's chin, his tone somewhat stern, "What's wrong with you? You know I've never liked being lied to."

The pain in her chin finally pulled Wanqi back to reality. Her eyes bulged wide as she tried to struggle free, but to no avail.

Seeing this, Xu Mo used even more force, until Wan Qi cried out in pain.

Xu Mo relaxed, staring intently at Wan Qi, and asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened?"

After a long while, Wan Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly, "Do you still like Ye Qingqing?"

After saying that, Wanqi's body went limp; it seemed that those words had exhausted all her strength.
