Since Xiaobaicai started recuperating at the restaurant, he hasn't been back to work for several days. Fortunately, Director Yu has given him leave, so it doesn't really matter whether he comes back or not, since there's not much to do lately anyway.

"Hey~ Cai Cai's been staying at someone else's place for so long, when is he coming back?"

Near the end of the workday, Yue Jiuling ran to Ya Zi's seat and asked him, "Hey, how about we go see Xiao Baicai after get off work?"

Ya Zi had just finished his snacks when he saw Yue Jiuling holding a bottle of yogurt and a glutinous rice ball. Without any hesitation, he reached out to Yue Jiuling and said, "Do you want some? If not, give them to me."

He didn't eat enough at lunch today, so he's very hungry now.

Yue Jiuling looked at Ya Zi with a slightly disgusted expression and said, "Didn't you just finish eating? How come you're hungry again?"

Although Yue Jiuling was a little disgusted with Ya Zi, who was a glutton, she still gave him her yogurt and glutinous rice balls in the end.

She watched as Ya Zi finished the glutinous rice ball in just a few bites, then reached out and nudged Ya Zi's shoulder, saying, "Hey, wanna go? Let's go see Xiao Baicai, okay?"

Ya Zi was drinking yogurt with her head down and didn't reply to Yue Jiuling. Mu Xiaoyi, who happened to be passing by, heard what Yue Jiuling said and came over and said, "Hey hey hey~ You guys are going to see Xiao Baicai? Take me with you, I want to go see Xiao Baicai too."

"Yes, I miss Xiaobaicai too. Can you take me with you?"

When Bai Xinyu saw the three of them talking about going to see Xiaobaicai, she ran over and asked to join them.

At this moment, Ya Zi finally finished his yogurt. He casually tossed the yogurt bottle into the nearby trash can and said, "Hey, what are you doing? Didn't Xiao Baicai just video chat with you this morning? It's only been a short time, and you're already missing him?"

Although Xiaobaicai was staying at the restaurant, he sent video calls to his colleagues in the office every day to chat about their daily lives. So Ya Zi couldn't understand what Yue Jiuling and the others were worried about regarding Xiaobaicai, and why they kept thinking about picking him up.

Ya Zi, holding a 'match-3' game on her phone, said, "I think you guys are just too idle. These past few days have finally been free of cases, and you can't stand being idle, can you?"

"No, Long Er, how should I put it? You said that Xiao Baicai was Qiongqi's lover in her past life, but even so, as members of her 'maternal family,' shouldn't we properly help her assess her abilities? Isn't it wrong to just 'marry' Xiao Baicai off like this?"

Mu Xiaoyi suddenly said.

Yue Jiuling couldn't find a suitable reason to persuade Ya Zi to go with her to find Xiao Baicai, but after hearing Mu Xiaoyi's words, she immediately chimed in, "That's right, let's go, Long Er, let's go together. Let's invite Dongfeng and Yinni along. We can say we're going to a restaurant to eat and then go see Xiao Baicai."

"Yes, that's right. But I need to tell Xiaobaicai first that Shiren Restaurant is now open day and night, so we need to ask them to reserve a table for us."

Bai Xinyu became very enthusiastic when the topic of going out to eat came up, because she had wanted to try the food at Shi Ren Restaurant for a long time. So she immediately took out her phone and started calling Xiao Baicai.

"Hey, is this Cai Cai? It's your Xin Yu sister~ Oh right, we're planning to eat at your restaurant after get off work later, and we'll stop by to see you. Remember to tell your friend to save us a table~"

Bai Xinyu quickly made a reservation for dinner that night. She turned to Ya Zi and continued, "Long Er, I know you're afraid of Qiongqi, which is why you're hesitant to go to the restaurant. But we're afraid too. He is a ferocious beast, after all. But even if we're afraid, we can't treat Xiao Baicai like this. We need to carefully vet the character of her future husband."

Hearing Bai Xinyu's words, and then looking at Yue Jiuling and Mu Xiaoyi, Ya Zi shook his head helplessly. He said, "Sigh~ whatever, you like it. The reservations are all made, so let's go over tonight~"

As Ya Zi said this, he was also thinking to himself, was he scared? No, he was embarrassed! Little White Cabbage called him "brother," but now he was her uncle's future boyfriend. So how was he supposed to call Little White Cabbage from now on? This relationship was so awkward!

After hearing that Ya Zi had agreed to go to the restaurant together, Yue Jiuling and the others didn't care what Ya Zi was thinking. They just packed their things, called Ye Dongfeng and Yin Ni who were still playing games, and prepared to go home and have dinner together.

"Ding-ling-ling~"

As soon as it was time to leave work, everyone in the office except for Director Yu was in high spirits, happily clocked out, and headed to the food street.

When the entire department arrived at Shi Ren Restaurant, Xiao Baicai was watering flowers on the second-floor terrace. Because he was worried that Xiao Baicai would be bored, Qiongqi had people plant many flowers and plants on the second-floor terrace pavilion, and many of them were rare and exotic plants that did not exist in the human world.

Most of those rare and exotic plants have become sentient beings. They can talk, sing, dance, tell jokes, and tell stories, which greatly interests Little Cabbage. She spends her days on the rooftop chatting and playing with those flowers and plants.

When Yue Jiuling entered the restaurant, she didn't see Xiao Baicai, so she grabbed Xiao Hui, who was greeting customers at the door, and asked, "Hey, where's Xiao Baicai? I can't see him."

When Xiao Hui saw Yue Jiuling and the others come in, he knew they must be looking for Xiao Baicai. So he politely pointed to the upstairs balcony and said, "At this time, the young master should be upstairs watering the flowers and plants. You can find him by going up there."
