“Remember to miss me,” Qi Shenbai reminded.
“I know!” Xu Jiaojiao pouted.
“If you miss me, you’ll dream of me…” Qi Shenbai continued sweetly.
“Hurry up and get back to work! Stop nagging and come back quickly.” Xu Jiaojiao did not dare to dream about him. The first time she dreamt about him being hit by a car, the second time was in City A, and she did not know what the third time would be like.
However, things often went the opposite way from what she wanted.
Xu Jiaojiao hung up the phone and saw that the woman from earlier had also followed her out. She stared at Xu Jiaojiao with her cold eyes for a moment before turning around and leaving.
“Are you done with your phone call?” Qi Yunduo held Xu Jiaojiao’s arm.
“Yeah. But why did Lil Bai take such a small matter so seriously?” Xu Jiaojiao was puzzled.
“What do you mean by such a small matter? This is a very serious matter, alright?” Qi Yunduo could not help but widen her eyes.
“How is it serious? Isn’t it just a piece of clothing?” Xu Jiaojiao did not really care.
“It’s not just a piece of clothing. That woman used money to pressure us just now! You’re the wife of the Qi Group’s CEO. How can you be intimidated by someone else’s money? If word gets out, wouldn’t my brother lose face?” Qi Yunduo hurriedly explained to Xu Jiaojiao.
“Would he?” Xu Jiaojiao did not understand the world of the super-rich.
“Yes, of course.” Qi Yunduo was very serious about this.
However, Qi Yunduo’s anxious expression was quite amusing to Xu Jiaojiao. It was as if she was talking about the internal drama of the wealthiest families.
Qi Yunduo asked around and finally confirmed that Zhao Yunxiao liked light blue, so she gave him the light blue shirt.
Zhao Yunxiao definitely did not want it, but he could not withstand Qi Yunxiao’s coaxing and pestering. She could give a hundred reasons for him to accept it.
In the end, she even got Zhao Yunxiao to go to an escape room with her. No one knew how she pulled it off.
In order to avoid awkwardness, she even called Xu Jiaojiao and Su Luo to join them.
Xu Jiaojiao and Su Luo were afraid of getting in the way of Qi Yunduo and Zhao Yunxiao’s relationship, so they went as a separate team. There were two routes in the secret room. Xu Jiaojiao and Su Luo took one route, while Qi Yunxiao and Zhao Yunxiao were on the other.
Every time Zhao Yunxiao solved a puzzle, Qi Yunxiao would look at him with admiration like a little fangirl and shower him with praise.
Su Lu, on the other hand, was very lonely. “It’s really not easy being single. The last time I accompanied you here, and this time I accompanied her here. I’ve really eaten my fill of PDA.”
In the enclosed escape room, it was very easy for sparks to fly when a man and a woman were alone together. Su Luo was envious!
“Maybe we’ll be the ones accompanying you next time?” Xu Jiaojiao wanted to comfort Su Luo.
“I hope so!” Su Luo drew a cross on her chest.
With such a smart person like Zhao Yunxiao around, it did not take them long to come out. Qi Yunduo looked at him with admiration. “Senior Zhao, you’re really smart.”
Zhao Yunxiao was a little embarrassed after being praised by Qi Yunduo so much. “Not really! You’re very brave too.”
“Is that so?” Qi Yunduo blushed and blinked at Zhao Yunxiao with stars in her eyes.
Su Luo hurriedly tugged at her. “Can’t you be more reserved?” She was going to scare him away at this rate.
Qi Yunduo tilted her head. She thought she was already being very reserved.
Xu Jiaojiao noticed that it was still early, so she asked, “What should we do now?”
“I want to play again.” Qi Yunduo actually wanted to spend more time with Zhao Yunxiao.
“No, no, you guys go ahead and play! I want to go to the toilet.” Su Luo really did not want to be the third wheel anymore.
Xu Jiaojiao also wanted to create more opportunities for the two of them, so she declined politely. “I’m not going either. I saw an art exhibition over there. I’ll go over and take a look. You two can play!”
Qi Yunduo looked at Zhao Yunxiao with an extremely expectant gaze. Facing such a gaze, Zhao Yunxiao could not refuse, so he agreed.
Qi Yunduo was overjoyed and hung onto his arm. “You really are the best!”
Zhao Yunxiao, on the other hand, took out his phone and chose the next theme. Seeing that he was about to pay, Qi Yunxiao quickly stopped him. “No need, let me do it.” Qi Yunduo did not want Zhao Yunxiao to spend money. After all, he was still working to earn his living expenses. She did not want to burden him because of her momentary greed.
However, Zhao Yunxiao was very decisive. “If you refuse to let me pay, I won’t go.”
Hearing Zhao Yunxiao’s insistence, Qi Yunduo could not refute him. “Then I’ll treat you to a meal later. Jiaojiao and Su Lu are both my friends. I don’t want to take advantage of you!”
Qi Yunduo gave Zhao Yunxiao a way out. Although Zhao Yunxiao insisted, he was not that stubborn. “Alright, I’ll treat you alone next time.”
Next time? There was still a next time…! Qi Yunduo felt like she was about to faint..
