He Lingyu entered the castle, her mood having calmed down considerably.
When Fei Yangyang saw her walk into the living room, he stood up enthusiastically.
“Miss He, it’s nice to meet you. I’m Pierre.”
"Hello."
He Lingyu turned her head and looked: "Where's Qin Bai?"
"Oh, he's busy with something very important, I estimate he'll be gone in a bit..."
At this moment.
A figure hurried upstairs, carrying a fruit platter.
He turned to look at He Lingyu, but didn't linger or say a word.
Boiling Sheep opened his mouth, but swallowed the rest of his words.
The atmosphere was unusually quiet.
He Tiancheng silently took a step back.
Damn it, I shouldn't have come along.
He Lingyu rubbed her eyes and turned to ask, "Mr. Pierre, was that Qin Bai who just walked by?"
"Well... I guess so." Fei Yangyang was extremely embarrassed.
"Is this what you meant by something very important?"
"That's one way to put it."
"Was the fruit platter he was holding made by hand?"
Looking at He Ling's trembling fingers, Fei Yangyang didn't know how to answer.
This guy is really not cooperating with his performance.
I won't say anything if you serve your wife well, but you can't undermine me.
I just told you you had something to do, and you give me this damn thing?
I will never lie for you again.
He Lingyu gritted her teeth: "Fine, fine, today..."
Ta-da!
A series of hurried footsteps came from upstairs.
Qin Bai ran down the street with a bouncy gait.
"Old Fei, is the dessert ready?"
"It's ready, in the kitchen, but you go first..."
"Okay, I understand."
After saying a few words, Qin Bai left again.
Two minutes later.
Ta-da!
Holding the small cake, Qin Bai ran upstairs again.
He Lingyu clenched her teeth.
This guy doesn't even consider himself human.
We had arranged to meet today, and I waited all morning. It's one thing if you don't show up, but now you're treating me like I'm invisible.
The only thing she's curious about right now is what this jerk is up to.
There's someone important upstairs who's more important than finding those paintings.
Since he had already guessed the purpose of this trip, it was impossible for him not to know what it meant.
Doesn't he care about the situation in Kyoto?
Fei Yangyang scratched his head awkwardly: "Miss He, I'll go take a look. You sit here and wait for a while."
"No need, I'll go see for myself."
He Lingyu disregarded etiquette and went straight upstairs.
He Tiancheng was about to follow when he was stopped by Fei Yangyang.
"Brother, I advise you not to go."
"Why?"
"You like eating dog food?"
"I don't like it."
"That's right, let's sit here and wait for a while."
After He Lingyu went upstairs, she walked along the corridor.
She stopped when she saw an open door and peered inside.
At this moment, Qin Bai was holding a small cake in one hand and using a spoon in the other to feed it to Ling Xiangxue.
"Try this, it tastes sweet and sour, it's delicious."
The soft texture made Ling Xiangxue's eyes widen instantly: "It's really delicious."
"This is the last bite. It's not suitable for you to eat high-calorie foods right now. When you return to China, I'll make you something low in calories myself."
The doting tone made Ling Xiangxue feel like she was walking in heaven, and she was in an unbelievably good mood.
Qin Bai put down the cake and put the peeled grapes into Ling Xiangxue's mouth.
How does it taste?
"It's delicious, you too..."
When she caught a glimpse of the peeping tom at the door, she immediately blushed with embarrassment.
It's quite embarrassing to see someone so helpless.
"Qin Bai, someone's here."
"Oh, it's nothing, I'll feed you first," Qin Bai said without turning his head.
"No need, she... she seems to have something very important to discuss with you."
Ling Xiangxue quickly stood up and looked at He Lingyu: "Miss, would you like to come in and sit down?"
Upon hearing the invitation, He Lingyu slowly walked in and sat directly opposite Qin Bai.
"Mr. Qin, how elegant! You're playing the 'keeping a mistress in a golden house' game."
He carefully examined Ling Xiangxue.
Um.
This "Jiao" is really quite good, at least on par with the ones in his family.
Qin Bai turned his head in surprise and said, "Oh my, when did Miss He arrive? Why didn't you call me? I would have gone outside to greet you."
"you......"
Mentioning this, He Lingyu almost ground her teeth to powder.
The prerequisite for me to call you is that your phone is on, right?
How good is this person at acting?
She pointed at Qin Bai for a long time without saying a word.
Ling Xiangxue stood to the side, her eyes constantly scrutinizing He Lingyu.
She smiled gently.
Xiaobai definitely did it on purpose.
That's really awful; how could they make such a pretty young girl turn pale with anger?
So this is how he treats other women.
Fortunately, he had never treated me like this before. Although he appeared aloof and always liked to tease me, he had never deliberately angered me like this.
So, he must think that he still holds a very important place in his heart.
Ling Xiangxue smiled and said, "You two talk about your business first, I'll go pour two cups of tea."
Qin Bai quickly stood up, grabbed her arm, and whispered gently in her ear, "It's not convenient for you to walk around right now, let's go downstairs."
"N-nothing," Ling Xiangxue replied, her eyes lowered.
"Wait for me here. I'll come find you after I get rid of her."
"good."
Qin Bai turned his head and smiled, "Miss He, let's go downstairs and have a chat."
After saying that, he turned and walked outside.
He Lingyu watched his retreating figure, gritting her teeth as she followed behind.
Seeing the two of them come down, He Tiancheng walked over to Qin Bai and whispered, "You should thank me quickly."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because I saved your life."
This is no exaggeration. If he hadn't snatched the knife from He Lingyu's hand, Qin Bai would definitely be riddled with holes by now.
"What are you talking about?" He Lingyu asked, glaring at him.
She's in a terrible mood right now, she can't stand anyone, and she'd even slap a passing dog.
He Tiancheng ran straight to the door: "It's nothing, I'm just going out for a walk."
Boiling Sheep chased after him immediately: "I'll take you there."
Only the two of them remained in the living room.
Qin Bai sat on the sofa, looking at He Lingyu across from him, and smiled happily.
You tried to set me up, I'll make you furious!
He's never been afraid of anyone when it comes to psychological warfare.
This is just collecting some interest; the main event is yet to come.
