As he spoke, he looked at the person opposite him with a tentative gaze.

Qi Jiu was taken aback. Hearing that familiar name, she asked slowly, "Your son?"

Perhaps because a lot of time had passed, she thought for a while before she could recall Ji Heng's appearance.

The young man is quite good-looking, with delicate features. If he lived in ancient times, he would be considered a refined and cultured young master, and his speech and manners are also very well-mannered.

But to be honest, she was in L country on business, and saving him was just a side thing; there was no need to make it so complicated. In her eyes, it was just an ordinary thing.

"No need. Tell him it was just a small favor, don't worry about it."

As soon as she finished speaking, she walked away from the coffee shop without lingering.

Hearing this, Ji Shuo shook his head helplessly.

My foolish son is ultimately destined to be apart from Qiqi. And rightly so, how could someone like Qiqi be so easily won over?

He had seen the rumors about her and the young master of the Qi family before. Compared with his own son, he really felt that only the young master of the Qi family was worthy of Qi Qi.

Otherwise, ordinary people really wouldn't be able to control her.

Ji Heng: "..."

Whose son is he? Is he even their biological son?

How can a father belittle his own son?

Here, Qi Jiu, who had just boarded the black-clad car, looked at the two figures in the milk tea shop across from the coffee shop and a sarcastic smile appeared on her lips.

Still trying to hide? She saw it a long time ago. She already knew when she was secretly taking pictures of her in the coffee shop.

"You've really become addicted to peeping. Why have you moved your voyeurism location now?"

Without further hesitation, she started the car and drove away.

Back in the villa area, she looked at the new house that had been quieted down, but instead of going there immediately, she carried the desserts she had bought at 'KaKa' on the way to the villa next door.

That is, Qi Silin's house.

After all, you can't always ask someone to do something for free, can you?

"Ding-dong."

The doorbell rang once, and she heard a slight movement behind the door. Then, the villa's door was opened.

Looking up, she saw Qi Silin's handsome face with a smile. He had already changed out of his suit and into black pajamas.

"You're back?"

Inside the room, all of Chongyu and Liuyun could hear: "..."

No, this sounds so awkward, it's a bit like... a stay-at-home husband welcoming his wife home?

Is it just my imagination? It doesn't seem so...

"Mm." The girl nodded.

She noticed the man's slight turn and, without any hesitation, walked straight in.

As she passed by Chongyu and Liuyun, she ruffled Chongyu's hair like she was petting a dog. In just one stroke, his curly hair was all messed up.

"Stop looking, come and have some dessert."

Qi Silin followed behind Qi Jiu, watching her movements with an inscrutable expression in his eyes.

Chongyu, feeling that gaze, was speechless.

No, what kind of look is that?

Jealous? No, what's there to be jealous of? Qiqi's technique is just like petting a dog, isn't it?

He hasn't even said anything about being treated like a dog! What's the difference between Qiqi's actions and petting a kitten or puppy on the street? He's not a kitten or puppy!

"Why aren't you here yet? This is a dessert I specially bought from 'KaKa'."

Qi Jiu looked at the person who wasn't moving in the distance and subconsciously called out.

"Kaka?"

These two words were like a ray of light, making Chongyu's eyes light up.

If 'G' represents the pinnacle of luxury clothing and accessories, then 'KaKa' represents the pinnacle of the dessert world. It's expensive, but incredibly delicious!

Actually, this is not a Chinese brand. 'KaKa' is a transliteration of a foreign luxury brand from another language.

"Qiqi, I'm here!"

Chongyu, who was initially somewhat unwilling, is now baring his teeth.

It's just a matter of patting a cat's or dog's head, nothing to 'KaKa'.

As long as I can get a bite to eat, I'd gladly give up this cat or dog; I don't care what happens next.

Hahaha...

He pulled Liu Yun to the dining table, looked at the luxurious gift box on the table, then glanced at Qi Jiu who was unpacking the box, and leaned forward slightly.

He even deliberately stretched his head forward a little.

Upon looking up, Qi Jiu saw a large head: "..."

What is this?

"What... happened?"

Chongyu looked at the mouthwatering desserts on the table, his mouth watering unconsciously, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Don't you like to ruffle my hair? Go ahead and ruffle it! Ruffle it all you want! But, as a reward, can I have an extra piece of this dessert?"

Qi Jiu: "..."

Liu Yun: "..."

Qi Silin: "..."

Promising.

The girl looked at the curly-haired boy in front of her and smiled. His gesture, like a dog begging for a bone, reminded her of the neighbor's big yellow dog.

Big Yellow: "..." Woof?

Chongyu: "..."

"It's okay, even if you don't knead it, you can still eat an extra piece of this dessert."

"YES!"

As he spoke, Chongyu sat down and rubbed his claws together like a fly.

"Qiqi, how did you manage to buy this? 'Kaka's' desserts aren't so easy to get. Last time I queued for ages and still couldn't get any. The staff there were so heartless!"

Seemingly harboring some resentment towards the dessert in front of him, Chongyu chewed on it with a somewhat vicious glint in his eyes.

Vent your anger with the dessert in your mouth.

It's both painful and joyful.

Liu Yun: "..." This is a devil.

The girl's expression remained unchanged, seemingly unconcerned. "There weren't many people today, so I just went and bought it directly. Maybe there were too many people the other day, and they ran out of desserts."

Chongyu: "Just bought it casually? I seem to remember that you need to buy a card and make a reservation for 'Kaka's' desserts? Look at this on the table, it doesn't look like it's sold by 'Kaka'."

Qi Jiu: "..."

Damn, I forgot about that. That guy never mentioned it before...

"Well... there weren't many people around, and 'KaKa' probably was afraid of losing money, so she just sold it to me. Otherwise, she wouldn't have just thrown it away after making it."

Chongyu was taken aback. "Really?"

The girl didn't say anything, she just nodded.

"How strange... I've never encountered this situation before..." Chongyu was half-believing and half-doubting, and put the small dessert into her mouth.

He nodded in admiration, but also seemed puzzled.

Qi Silin looked at the girl who was bowing her head and not speaking, chuckled softly, and looked at her with interest.

Liu Yun, however, looked at Chong Yu, who seemed a little dazed, and pursed his lips without saying a word.

Is Young Master Chong sometimes off his wits? Right now, all he sees is dessert. Couldn't he tell Miss Qi had some connection to 'Kaka'?

Miss Qi is clearly hiding something from Young Master Chong. Can't he see that?
