“Go to your place, where else could we go?” Gu Kai glanced at the items she tossed in the shopping cart and pointed at the one in front, “Put that in too, and let’s have a hot pot instead.”
“You just said you were going to cook a minute ago.” Wen Ran glared at him, unable to accept it. Why did it change to hot pot all of a sudden?
Gu Kai looked at her pouting lips and laughed dotingly, “All right, I’ll indulge you. We can have hot pot another day. Tonight, I’ll cook a feast that’s more lavish and delicious than anything you’ve had before. You better call Wen Jin and the others now, tell them to cancel any engagements they have early on.”
“You’re the best, bro,”
Wen Ran immediately ass-kissed.
Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh beside them, “Ranran, Gu Kai agreeing to your request makes him good, but if he insisted on having hot pot, would you still say he’s good?”
Wen Ran gave Xiaoxiao a playful glare and then turned to Gu Kai, saying, “My brother is so good, how could he not satisfy my requests? Xiaoxiao, tonight’s lavish feast will serve as your farewell dinner. You’d better eat lots.”
Just as Wen Ran finished talking, Gu Kai’s phone started to ring.
Seeing the caller ID, a pleased smile crept up the corners of Gu Kai’s lips. His eyes inadvertently flicked towards Bai Xiaoxiao, and he pressed the answer button cheerfully, “Hello, Ah Feng.”
Hearing Gu Kai’s voice, Bai Xiaoxiao’s heartbeat inexplicably skipped a beat. She froze, her hand reaching for something on the shelf, and turned to look at Gu Kai.
Gu Kai simply turned on the speakerphone.
Luo Haofeng’s voice came through the phone, “Ah Kai, I’ve arrived at the airport. Where are you?”
“Hehe, I’m at the mall, buying some things with Ranran and Xiaoxiao. You wait at the airport for a bit, or you can take a taxi over here.”
Gu Kai’s smile widened, feeling no guilt for breaking his promise.
Originally, he had agreed to pick up Luo Haofeng at the airport that afternoon. But he had changed his mind a moment ago and decided to join Ranran and Xiaoxiao for some shopping.
“Then, I’ll take a taxi over.”
Without a second thought, Luo Haofeng chose to take a taxi, exactly as Gu Kai had suggested, and didn’t complain about Gu Kai not picking him up.
Of course, this was all thanks to Bai Xiaoxiao.
“Okay, we’ll wait for you at the mall.”
Gu Kai thought for a moment. They hadn’t finished shopping for ingredients yet, so they could wait for Luo Haofeng to catch up. And tonight, he probably wouldn’t need his help with the cooking anyway.
Considering this, Gu Kai’s smile became even brighter, “That settles it, we’ll wait for you at the mall.”
“Why would he come to G City?”
As soon as Gu Kai hung up the phone, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t help asking.
“Xiaoxiao, Luo Haofeng must have come for you. Think about it, you’re about to go abroad, could he not come back to G City and see you one last time?” Wen Ran teased.
A hint of discomfort crossed Bai Xiaoxiao’s face. Her thoughts were in turmoil from the conversation she had just overheard. She frowned and said half-heartedly, “What does my departure have to do with him?”
“If it’s none of his business, weren’t you going abroad because of him?” Wen Ran whispered in Bai Xiaoxiao’s ear.
“Of course not.” Bai Xiaoxiao glared at Wen Ran with her eyes.
Wen Ran raised an eyebrow, smiling with pure joy, “I know deep down you’re actually thrilled. You’re just too shy to say it out loud. But Xiaoxiao, I won’t give you two the chance to be alone tonight, at least not before we’ve had dinner. As for the rest of the long night, that’s a different story.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
Bai Xiaoxiao reached out to cover Wen Ran’s mouth; Wen Ran dodged in a second, turned back with a smile, and looked at Bai Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, there’s nothing to be ashamed of admitting. You’re surely thinking about it too.”
“Ranran, keep talking.” Bai Xiaoxiao cursed annoyedly and chased after her.
Wen Ran hurriedly stopped her reckless behavior, “Xiaoxiao, this is a mall. If you want to hit me, wait until we get home. Doing it here will ruin our image.”
“You think I don’t know that once we’re home, you’ll have Mo Xiuchen to back you up? How could I even dare to touch a hair on your head?” Bai Xiaoxiao said this, yet she ceased her play-fighting.

Wen Ran squinted with laughter, linked her arm with hers, and said, “Even if Xiuchen is not here right now, I still have my brother, and he won’t let you bully me either. Just accept it. While we wait for Luo Haofeng, let’s go shop for something else.”

On the first floor, Bai Yiyi and Li En, seated by the window, had not left immediately.
“Yiyi, are you really not considering my proposal?”
Li En looked at Bai Yiyi with passionate eyes. She should think of the baby in her womb, if not herself. Does she really want the baby to be born fatherless and become a subject of ridicule?
Bai Yiyi’s complexion wasn’t good, slightly pale. Her grip on the straw tightened quietly. After a moment, she lifted her downcast eyes and a smile tugged at her lips, “Li En, I appreciate your kindness, but I can’t be that selfish.”
Li En’s face lit up with excitement, “Yiyi, you know this isn’t about being selfish. I’ve always liked you; I just haven’t confessed it. I was hoping you would feel it on your own…”
“Li En, please don’t say anymore.”
Bai Yiyi suddenly stood up, one hand on her waist and the other on her belly. Maybe because she rose too quickly, the baby seemed uncomfortable and kicked her hard.
A frown followed on her brow.
Seeing her hand on her stomach, Li En immediately expressed concern, “Yiyi, don’t be upset. Sit down first, and I’ll stop talking.”
Bai Yiyi pursed her lips and looked at him, “Li En, since you’ve said as much, I cannot accept your proposal. It wouldn’t be fair to you. Don’t worry, I’m not alone in this; my mother is with me. My mom and I will be there for the baby; she won’t be lonely or bullied.”
Her own mother paid a lifetime for a loveless marriage. Bai Yiyi was determined not to repeat her mistakes and sacrifice her life for a marriage without love.
Li En frowned deeply, clearly disagreeing, “Yiyi, I’m not trying to pressure you into anything. I just want to take care of you and the baby. Your mother’s health isn’t good, and she’s getting old; she can’t really help you. And you won’t say who the father of the baby is…”
“I can take care of her myself.”
Bai Yiyi looked down, caressing her belly. The little treasure inside seemed to feel her love and stretched gently.
Li En watched the tender maternal love in her eyes and his gaze darkened.
“Brother, Luo Haofeng hasn’t arrived yet. Let’s go in for some milk tea and rest while we wait for him.”
From the direction of the entrance, a light and cheerful voice reached them. Bai Yiyi looked back in astonishment, and upon seeing the three people who had walked in, her face changed again. Without a second thought, she immediately settled back into the armchair.
“Okay, let’s take the spot by the window. That way, we can spot Ah Feng the moment he arrives.”
The newcomers were Gu Kai, Wen Ran, and Bai Xiaoxiao.
