Hong Baobao said "Mmm" very firmly.
Jing Pei sighed. Judging from Hong Baobao's expression, it seemed that she really wasn't going to agree to his proposal.
“Okay,” Jing Pei said.
Although he really wanted Hong Baobao to agree, there was nothing he could do if she really refused.
"Brother Jing, if you have nothing else to do, I'll go upstairs first." Seeing that Jing Pei had finished speaking but showed no sign of leaving, Hong Baobao decided to go upstairs first.
"Something's up," Jing Pei said.
Hong Baobao raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's the matter?"
Jing Pei was just saying it casually; he simply didn't want Hong Baobao to leave like that.
He wanted to spend more time with Hong Baobao, but when Hong Baobao asked him that, he was momentarily at a loss for words.
When Hong Baobao saw that Jing Pei couldn't give a coherent answer, she roughly guessed that Jing Pei's earlier statement about having something to do was just a casual remark.
Hong Baobao sighed inwardly, shook her head, and then said, "Brother Jing, please sit down first. I'll go upstairs now."
After Hong Baobao finished speaking, she walked past Jing Pei and headed upstairs before Jing Pei could say anything.
However, as Hong Baobao stepped onto the stairs, her leg suddenly cramped.
The cramp came so suddenly that Hong Baobao hadn't expected it at all and wasn't prepared at all.
Hong Baobao let out a cry, and it looked like she was about to fall down. Jing Pei noticed this at that moment.
He quickly helped Hong Baobao up, and now that she had someone to lean on, she no longer had any real physical contact with the ground.
After regaining her balance, Hong Baobao stepped off Jing Pei and said, "Thank you, Brother Jing."
Hong Baobao's leg was still cramping a bit, so she stood there and planned to wait a while until her leg felt better before going upstairs.
"Baby, are you alright?" Jing Pei asked.
Hong Baobao shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
After a while, Hong Baobao finally felt that her leg was getting better.
After her leg felt a bit better, Hong Baobao told Jing Pei that she was going upstairs.
Jing Pei stood behind, staring at Hong Baobao's back. He could tell that ever since he had made things clear with Hong Baobao, she had been deliberately keeping her distance from him.
This left Jing Pei feeling somewhat frustrated. However, fortunately, so far, although Bao Bao doesn't like her, she doesn't like anyone else either.
As long as the baby doesn't have anyone else he likes, then he still has a chance.
It wasn't until Hong Baobao went upstairs and entered her own room that she finally felt the burning gaze behind her disappear.
When Hong Baobao entered the room, Cheng Yaoyao was lying on the bed.
Hearing the door open, Cheng Yaoyao turned to look at Hong Baobao, then looked away and asked, "Where's Jingpei? Did he go home?"
Hong Baobao shook her head, then, remembering that Cheng Yaoyao couldn't see her shaking her head, she said, "He's still down there."
Cheng Yaoyao said "Oh," then tossed her phone onto the bed, got up, looked at Hong Baobao, and asked, "Baobao, Jing Pei is pursuing you, right? What do you think?"
Hong Baobao shrugged and said, "What do you mean, what do you think?"
"It's about you, Jing Pei. Do you like Jing Pei?" Cheng Yaoyao asked with a gossipy look on her face.
In Cheng Yaoyao's opinion, Jing Pei and Hong Baobao are quite a good match.
Hong Baobao shook her head and said, "Isn't being single great? Why bother with dating?"
After hearing this, Cheng Yaoyao nodded and said with a look of agreement, "That's true, being single is pretty great."
However, judging from Jingpei's appearance, he is determined to pursue Hong Baobao. So, how long can Baobao hold on?
As an outsider, she could tell that although Bao Bao didn't say she liked Jing Pei, she actually had a good impression of him.
She thought that maybe after a while, the baby would fall in love with Jingpei.
Hong Baobao looked at Cheng Yaoyao, and then asked, "Yaoyao, what about you? Do you have someone you like?"
“Of course I don’t have any,” Cheng Yaoyao said.
In fact, since her school days, Cheng Yaoyao has had many suitors.
However, she didn't really like any of them, so she would reject anyone who confessed their feelings to her.
Over time, fewer and fewer people confessed their feelings to Cheng Yaoyao.
To date, Cheng Yaoyao has never been in a relationship.
The reason why Cheng Yaoyao refuses to date is, frankly speaking, related to her family background.
"Yaoyao, what do you think of my brother?" Hong Baobao asked.
This idea had actually been in Hong Baobao's mind for quite some time.
It's strange, really.
Hong Baobao had this idea because she had a very strange dream not long ago.
She dreamed that Cheng Yaoyao became her sister-in-law.
After waking up from that dream, Hong Baobao had this idea.
She forgot the specifics of her dream when she woke up.
The only thing she remembered was that Cheng Yaoyao had become her sister-in-law.
During this time, Hong Baobao would often think about Cheng Yaoyao becoming her sister-in-law.
And so, today, she just happened to ask about it.
After Hong Baobao asked Cheng Yaoyao, Cheng Yaoyao didn't answer Hong Baobao for a long time, she just looked at Hong Baobao.
This puzzled Hong Baobao. She touched her face and asked, "Yaoyao, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
Cheng Yaoyao shook her head and asked, "Baby, do you want me to be your sister-in-law?"
Hong Baobao paused for a moment when she heard Cheng Yaoyao's question, and said, "How can you ask me about something like this? It naturally depends on what you and my brother think."
After all, things don't always go the way she wants them to.
"Actually, being your sister-in-law wouldn't be so bad. Otherwise, I'll ask your brother about it sometime," Cheng Yaoyao said casually.
Hong Baobao felt that there was something off about what Cheng Yaoyao said.
However, Hong Baobao couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.
"I think you should just let things take their course," Hong Baobao said, shrugging her hands.
She felt that it was better to let things take their natural course.
However, judging from Cheng Yaoyao's expression, she doesn't seem to dislike her brother Shen Quan.
Who knows, that dream might come true.
Thinking about it this way, Hong Baobao actually started to look forward to it.
