The car was parked in front of a hotel.
The waiter immediately ran over, glanced at the license plate, and smiled, "Mr. Qin, your reserved private room is ready."
Qin Bai handed over the car keys: "Thank you."
The group walked inside.
Upon reaching the second floor, a waiter led the way.
Shen Guaiguai was quite familiar with this restaurant; Qin Bai often brought them here to eat.
As she passed a private room, the door was open, and she caught a glimpse of a man out of the corner of her eye.
Shen Guaiguai was slightly taken aback.
Luo Jingyi?
What is he doing here?
Although she had never met this person, his photo was in the information, so she wouldn't mistake him for someone else.
Moreover, he was sitting there alone, looking out the window. Was he waiting for someone?
Just as Shen Guaiguai was about to tell Qin Bai about this, her little hand was grabbed.
Yao Rou asked softly, "Mu Yao, are you tired here?"
"It's okay, I'm not tired."
"How is your relationship with Xiaobai?"
“It’s really good.” Her gaze was still fixed on the private room.
"What are you looking at?" Yao Rou asked, following her gaze with a puzzled look.
"It's nothing, I misread it."
Shen Guaiguai suppressed her doubts, thinking it might just be a coincidence.
Restaurants are public places; if she can come to eat, others can too.
After arriving at the private room and ordering the dishes, the group chatted casually about everyday things.
After a while, Qin Bai slowly stood up: "I'm going to the restroom. You guys eat first, don't wait for me."
After saying that, he walked straight outside.
Shen Guaiguai frowned slightly, recalling what had just happened.
Is Luo Jingyi waiting for Xiaobai?
After the idea popped into her head, she almost laughed at her own wild imagination.
The two were natural enemies, having fought with the Luo family in Kyoto for so long, how could they possibly agree to meet here?
The news has spread throughout Kyoto that Luo He will pass the position of clan leader to Luo Jingyi after the New Year, and he is unlikely to come here to see Xiao Bai at that time.
If word gets out, given Luo He's suspicious nature, Luo Jingyi will likely be in trouble.
Xiao Bai must have just gone to the restroom. Suppressing that thought, Chen continued to eat the food on her plate in small bites.
Before Qin Bai went out, she fed Xiao Bai a lot of her favorite foods. After she finished eating these, Xiao Bai would probably come back.
Ten minutes later, half of the food on the plate was gone.
Twenty minutes later, only one-third of the food remained on the plate.
Thirty minutes later, only one piece of crab roe remained on the plate.
Shen Guaiguai looked towards the doorway with some worry.
Could it be that Xiao Bai really went to find Luo Jingyi?
Did the two of them start fighting?
That won't do.
What if a novice gets taken advantage of?
We need to call in reinforcements.
With that in mind, she immediately took out her phone.
Just as she was about to send a message to Gu Zichen, the head of the bodyguards, a hand pressed the lock screen button.
"Why aren't you eating properly? You're playing on your phone instead?" Qin Bai sat down next to her, looking at her tenderly.
Seeing her little white dog appear before her perfectly intact, the girl finally felt relieved.
"Xiaobai, you didn't...?"
"Shh!"
Qin Bai put a finger to his lips and looked at the two mothers across from him who were chatting animatedly.
"We'll talk about it when we get back."
"Um."
Shen Muyao was as well-behaved as ever.
Xiao Bai must have his reasons for not letting me ask; he'll explain later.
After the meal, Qin Bai and the others returned home.
When Yao Rou walked into Shen Guaiguai's villa, Qin Bai was immediately dumbfounded.
He was so anxious that he kept slapping his thigh.
That's it.
Trying to sneak in at this hour would be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
How could I forget about this?
Seeing his worried expression, Shen Guaiguai naturally knew what he was thinking.
She walked over and tugged at Qin Bai's sleeve, whispering, "My mom and I sleep separately."
"But there will definitely be noise when we come in, right?" Qin Bai looked at her pitifully.
"Night raid." Shen Guaiguai lowered his head, his voice extremely soft.
Fearing Qin Bai might overthink things, she added, "I won't close the window."
After she finished speaking, her face turned bright red with embarrassment, making her look like a doll with rouge and powder on her face.
Qin Bai was extremely happy.
As expected, Shen Guaiguai is the one who cares about herself the most.
Are you wondering why Luo Jingyi was at that restaurant?
In order to prevent the steam princess in front of him from running away due to her reddening, Qin Bai took the initiative to change the subject.
"He really came to see you?"
"Yes, we arranged to meet there. It just so happens that Auntie is coming today, so it's a win-win situation."
"What are you... plotting?"
Qin Bai smiled and said, "More or less. I discussed a business deal with him."
Shen Guaiguai blinked in confusion: "What kind of business could you possibly do together with someone like you?"
"Yes, we wiped the slate clean. In return, he helped me deal with that old Deng from Luohe."
Qin Bai squinted and spoke calmly.
Shen Muyao stared in disbelief, speechless for a long time.
How could a newbie like me even think about something like this?
That's really a bit far-fetched.
Why would Luo Jingyi, who will soon become the next head of the Luo family, go after his grandfather?
Is this reasonable?
No one is willing to do a losing business when the effort and reward are disproportionate.
