"No...no, I'll wash it when I get home after dinner."

Why does my throat feel a little dry?

Bai Qianmo picked up the half-full glass of water on the coffee table and gulped it down.

"Why……"

Gu Jueye wanted to stop her, but seeing that Bai Qianmo had already drunk it, he looked intently at the red lip print left on the glass.

"What's wrong?" Bai Qianmo pretended to be calm as she drank her water, glancing around.

"It's nothing. I was just about to say that I used this cup."

Her hand holding the teacup trembled violently, causing the water inside to spill out and splash all over her skirt.

"Be careful." Gu Jueye picked up a tissue from the coffee table and pulled out a few to help wipe it.

As a result, his hand froze in mid-air, unable to find a place to start.

By sheer coincidence, the water from the glass spilled all over my chest, the water trickling down the soft fabric.

"Cough cough, I can do it myself!" Bai Qianmo took a tissue and wiped herself, feeling a bit agitated.

It's just a water glass that Gu Jueye used, why is she reacting so strongly?

"Never mind, I'm going to take a shower." Bai Qianmo threw the tissue into the trash can, got up, and rushed to the bathroom without glancing at Gu Jueye the whole time.

It would be a shame not to shower at a hotel I booked for two thousand dollars.

Moreover, the fabric of this dress is not breathable, and now it has been accidentally spilled with water, which is really uncomfortable.

Most importantly, she can't keep getting stage fright in front of him.

Watching Bai Qianmo enter the bathroom, Gu Jueye's lips curved slightly, a soft light shining on his delicate features, his whole being radiating a warm, sunny smile.

"bite"

Bai Qianmo's phone, which was on the coffee table, rang.

Gu Jueye glanced down at the screen; the phone was displaying a game page.

Upon seeing the person who sent the private message, Gu Jueye narrowed his eyes slightly, sat down directly, and picked up his phone to look through it.

The eldest son of the Ji family: "Dad, can you teach me how to play? Your skills are amazing, you're practically on par with the legendary Ye Bai Pinmei on the leaderboard."

Ye Bai? Isn't that just another name for the little girl?

"Dad, why aren't you replying to me?"

"Dad, are you there?"

Gu Jueye glanced at the chat history, his handsome face slightly somber.

He had known for a long time that Ji Cong'an had no bottom line, but he was very curious about what the little girl had done to make Ji Cong'an so shameless.

Nightcrawler: "?"

The eldest son of the Ji family: "Dad, you've finally paid attention to me! Do you agree to what I just said? I'll give you a set of top-tier equipment, and you teach me how to use it, how about it?"

Gu Jueye stared at the phone screen in silence for a moment, then his slender fingers landed on the chat box.

Nightcrawler: "Not so great."

Ji Cong'an didn't understand Nightwalker's meaning for a moment: "...Two sets of equipment? If that doesn't work, three sets? How about three sets?"

Nightwalker: "Not at all."

The eldest son of the Ji family: "!!! You don't like any of the three sets? Then what do you like? Okay, Dad, as long as you're willing to teach me how to play, I'll buy you any equipment you want from now on, is that alright, Dad?"

Gu Jueye let out a soft chuckle.

Nightcrawler: "You really have no bottom line at all."

The head of the Ji family: "Hehehe, who said that? How could I have no bottom line? You just don't understand me."

Gu Jueye raised an eyebrow and slightly curled his lips.

Nightcrawler: "You do have a bottom line, because your bottom line is that you have no bottom line!"

The eldest son of the Ji family: "...Dad, how do you know me so well? It's amazing! Your tone sounds just like one of my close friends. He said the exact same thing to me. Let me tell you, this friend of mine is incredibly cunning. He's always scheming against others. His family is terrified of him. When I was little, he beat me so badly I couldn't get out of bed for three days. And that's not all. He even schemes when he's dating. He's practically the granddaddy of scheming, like the Buddha himself! Everything is under his control. It's terrifying. Having a friend like that in life is just too tragic. Dad, please don't learn from him!"

Upon seeing Ji Cong'an's words, Gu Jueye remained silent for three seconds before unhesitatingly adding the Ji family tycoon to his blacklist and deleting their chat history.

Keeping this big-mouthed guy around is not a good thing.

After waiting for a while without receiving a reply from Nightwalker, Ji Cong'an sent an emoji.

The result indicates that you have been banned from speaking!

Ji Cong'an: "..."

Holy crap, what did he do to offend this powerful figure?

The doorbell rang

Gu Jueye put down his phone, walked to the door, and opened it.

The hotel waiter pushed the food cart in, walked to the table, and carefully placed the food on the table.

The waiter handed Gu Jueye a bouquet of roses.

"Sir, these are the roses you ordered. Enjoy your meal with your girlfriend."

After seeing the waiter off, Gu Jueye closed the door and looked at the bouquet of fiery red roses in his hand. A sudden feeling of nervousness rose in his heart.

In the bathroom

After taking a shower

Bai Qianmo was dismayed to discover that there were no bathrobes or even a towel provided in the bathroom.

Suddenly, I remembered that when Gu Jueye came out of the bathroom, he seemed to be drying his hair with a bath towel...

After glancing around, Bai Qianmo's gaze finally settled on her own dress.

Just as Bai Qianmo reached for her dress, the bathroom door suddenly rang.

"Are you done washing up? The food you ordered has arrived."

"All done washing..."

Hearing something odd in the girl's voice, Gu Jueye looked towards the bed and immediately understood.

"The bathrobe is on the bed, shall I get it for you?"
