Wei Ruolan was taken aback.
She didn't know.
Are there good men in this world?
Lin Xiao seemed different from others.
He is mature, steady, and reserved; meticulous, gentle, and patient; upright, brave, and humble; tall, sturdy, and powerful; he seems to have no flaws.
But Lin Xiao has other clients.
Ji Ran was one of his clients.
She was just one of his clients.
His gentleness and thoughtfulness weren't limited to just her.
Perhaps he did this because he was short of money and needed to treat his aunt's illness.
She has money.
If she gives him enough money, would he be willing to reject other women for her?
Before Wei Ruolan could react, Wei Ruoju had already abandoned her sister and rushed downstairs.
Wei Ruoju walked over and sat down next to Xixi.
She wore a cheerful smile, and no one would guess that she had just had a big argument with her sister in the study.
Wei Ruoju's gaze fell on the salt and pepper squid rings on the coffee table.
Chen Moli, who was standing to the side, immediately stopped smiling and switched to battle mode.
I had already come up with seven or eight different ways to start a fight.
To everyone's surprise, Wei Ruoju didn't say anything, but simply leaned forward, took one, and put it in her mouth.
The small flame that had been igniting in Chen Moli's chest immediately went out.
She stared at the scene before her in disbelief.
Why doesn't she play by the rules?
While eating, Wei Ruoju glanced at Chen Moli and said with a faint smile, "Moli, get ready, dinner is ready."
Chen Moli didn't say anything, but it was indeed lunchtime, so she turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes.
Throughout the entire process, Lin Xiao remained silent.
He sat side by side on the sofa with XiXi and Puff, watching cartoons on TV.
Just then, Wei Ruoju suddenly stepped past Xixi and approached from behind the sofa.
She reached out to poke Lin Xiao's arm, which was draped over the back of the sofa, but Lin Xiao calmly withdrew his hand.
Wei Ruoju felt somewhat frustrated, but she was not giving up and vaguely asked, "Lin Xiao, didn't you say last time that you had an app?"
"I'll download it now and book a time with you tomorrow night. Is that alright?"
After finishing her squid rings, she wiped her hands with a tissue, opened her phone, and searched for "professional simp" apps. She discovered that there were quite a few similar apps.
Which app are you from?
Lin Xiao ignored him, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes.
Is this Mr. Lin?
Just then, Jasmine passed by carrying dishes and glanced at them curiously.
Lin Xiao didn't want to discuss this matter in front of Xi Xi, so he stood up and said in a low voice, "Miss Wei, please come here for a moment."
Wei Ruoju was delighted and followed Lin Xiao into an unused guest room.
Standing in the corner of the stairs, Wei Ruolan saw everything that had just happened clearly.
She could tell that Lin Xiao didn't want to talk to his sister.
They also guessed that Lin Xiao didn't want Xi Xi to know about the deal between the adults.
But they've gone to another room now...
What will they say?
Will Lin Xiao, like Feng Qi, succumb to his sister's advances and fall at her feet?
Or will he act like a gentleman, stick to his principles, and at least not have this special relationship with both sisters at the same time?
She was so anxious and curious that only one thing remained in her mind.
That is to see the truth with your own eyes.
She knew that eavesdropping on other people's conversations was immoral, but her sister disregarded morality, and only she became a slave to the shackles of morality.
The fact that Feng Qi and his sister had such a sordid past behind her back deeply stung Wei Ruolan's nerves.
What is truly clean and trustworthy anymore?
She felt that the vast world was like a huge makeshift troupe, where everyone was acting, and only she stubbornly held onto certain bottom lines.
She didn't want to be fooled anymore.
She would rather lose it consciously.
So she rushed to the study like a madwoman.
Meanwhile, in the guest rooms downstairs.
Lin Xiao deliberately didn't lock the door.
He got straight to the point: "Ms. Wei, there's something I need to clarify. I've already accepted your sister's order, so I won't be accepting your appointments anymore."
"Don't ask why, just say it's my principle."
Wei Ruoju's smile froze, and she asked in confusion, "Why? But you clearly said it was okay last time."
"As long as I can afford it, you'll do anything I want with me."
"I've changed my mind. I'm willing to pay you to be my temporary boyfriend."
Lin Xiao said calmly, "Last time was just to shatter your illusions about me."
"I'm telling you my true identity to dispel the myth."
"I'm just an employee, and my fees are exorbitant. Once you find out, you'll naturally avoid me."
"That's exactly the case. Not only did you not accept my offer and pay to book my services, you also turned around and sold me out to General Manager Lan."
"I didn't explain much, not because I don't have a mouth or like being misunderstood."
"It's because I'm a bit stubborn, and there are some things I don't want to touch."
"By taking this profession, I've somewhat embarked on a path of no return to depravity, but at least I still have a choice—a choice not to sink any deeper."
Wei Ruoju was stunned.
She frowned in thought.
She tried to explain, "Actually, I do have feelings for you. You know that."
"That day... I was just too shocked. Why did my sister do that?"
"I...I'm sorry! But it's good that you're back now, isn't it?"
