Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

Xu Bai still went to the banquet. Lu Qinghuai wore a formal suit. Although it was open to the public, he was an employee after all and could not dress too casually.

Liu Er: [Are you sure you want to wear this? ]

Xu Bai looked in the mirror, looking at himself in jeans, a white shirt and a thin jacket, [Hmm, doesn't it look good? ]

Liu Er: [It looks good, but you are going to a banquet, so you have to——]

Xu Bai: [Suit and tie? No, no, no, Bai Yu is not a very smart green tea. Especially when it comes to chasing people, he has no experience and is eager to succeed, so he will definitely use the dumbest method to try to attract Ji Yinli's attention.]

He posed twice in front of the mirror, sprayed perfume twice, and finally returned to his pure and weak image, looking quite nervous as he grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Brother Qinghuai, is this okay for me?"

Lu Qinghuai looked at him. Logically, this was too casual, but the boy probably didn't have any particularly formal clothes, and he would be uncomfortable wearing them, so he nodded, "Okay, Xiaoyu, pack up and we'll set off."

I have to admit that Lu Qinghuai is indeed handsome. He is gentle but has edges and corners. If the white elm must cling to other people's silkworms, then Lu Qinghuai should be a tall and straight poplar.

Xu Bai sighed in his heart: Those who are capable will of course prefer Lu Qinghuai's style.

"Brother Qinghuai." Xu Bai's eyes sparkled and he looked very excited. "You are so handsome."

Lu Qinghuai curled his lips and flicked Xu Bai's forehead with his finger, "Why are you so slick?"

"That's the truth." Xu Bai muttered, and changed the subject to Ji Yinli again, "Brother Qinghuai, have you met President Ji? He seems very mysterious. The Internet is full of interviews about him, but the only photo is of his back."

Lu Qinghuai frowned, he didn't know why Xu Bai was so interested in Mr. Ji. They had been together for so many years and their lives revolved around each other. Suddenly Xu Bai showed interest in another man. Lu Qinghuai felt a little jealous.

"I haven't seen him either. There are rumors that he doesn't look good."

Lu Qinghuai said "rumor" without changing his expression, and didn't notice Xu Bai pursing his lips and thinking about the cold face he saw. It must have been a candid shot. The man raised his head slightly, with a strong outline and sharp eyebrows. Even in the blurred and close-up shot, one could feel the sense of oppression.

Lu Qinghuai could actually save such a man...

Xu Bai couldn't help feeling a little jealous, but subconsciously touched the jade beads on his chest. Anyway, Lu Qinghuai had told him what happened more than ten years ago. As long as Ji Yinli still remembered it, there would definitely be a chance.

By the time the matter is settled and the two have confirmed their relationship, there will be nothing to worry about later.

He was not afraid of being discovered. Even for the sake of face, Ji Yinli had to stay with him.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this approach would work. The young man encouraged himself in his heart and followed Lu Qinghuai into the banquet hall.

This place was much more luxurious than they had imagined, and even the receptionists were dressed very formally. The young man, who had been full of confidence, suddenly wilted and bit his lip, not daring to look up.

"It's okay." Lu Qinghuai noticed Xu Bai's emotions and comforted him, "At worst we can just go in and take a look around and leave, okay?"

Seeing that Xu Bai still refused to look up, he simply reached out and held his cold palm, "Come on, brother will accompany you."

From the moment he entered, Xu Bai could feel a pair of eyes staring at him, full of malice and making him extremely uncomfortable.

Xu Bai: [Who is staring at me? Ji Yinli? ]

Liu Er: [How do you know? ]

Xu Bai: [Well, after two years in the martial arts world, your sixth sense will become very accurate. If it is not accurate, you will be beaten into a sieve at any time.]

Although he was joking, Xu Bai felt it was even more strange. Ji Yinli had never met them before, so how could he have such strong malice?

Being led by Lu Qinghuai, he relaxed a little.

Occasionally, a few colleagues would come over to say hello to Lu Qinghuai, looking at the boy he was holding in his hand with surprise, "Qinghuai is here too? This is——"

"My brother."

After Lu Qinghuai finished introducing them, Xu Bai would smile shyly. He looked very introverted, but he was good-looking and well-behaved, making him very likable. So soon, he was fed several small cakes and held the juice poured by the beautiful sister.

"Brother Qinghuai." Xu Bai pulled his sleeve and raised his fair palm. Inside was a piece of chocolate cake with a small bite taken out of it with a fork. "I can't eat any more. I'll give this to you."

Lu Qinghuai doesn't like chocolate.

Xu Bai knew it, but this part of him just liked to bully people, and he would always deliberately give Lu Qinghuai chocolate or chocolate-flavored things.

"……elder brother."

Lu Qinghuai was half a head taller than him, so Xu Bai could only tilt his head back and blink his eyes innocently and coquettishly, making it impossible for Lu Qinghuai to say no, nor for him to get angry because "I've told you many times that I don't eat chocolate and you still can't remember."

He reached out and took the incomplete chocolate cake, and used the fork that Xu Bai had used to dig into the missing corner.

Xu Bai: [Oh, I am so bad. ]

He could feel Ji Yinli's gaze becoming increasingly sharp. If it had substance, the knife would have already skewered him like a candied haws stick.

Liu Er: [Do you want to know Ji Yinli's favorability? ]

Xu Bai: [Zero?]

He watched Lu Qinghuai eat the chocolate cake and asked, "Brother Qinghuai, is it delicious? Can I get it for you later?"

Liu Er: [-99]

Then he said, "But don't worry. In order not to dampen the host's enthusiasm for the mission, the main system will not broadcast until the value is above zero."

Xu Bai: ...

Lu Qinghuai finished eating the cake, his brows knitted together, his face looking a little pale. Xu Bai, however, had already relaxed, occasionally taking out his phone to take a couple of photos as he walked around the event - since he was here, at such a high-end banquet, of course he had to post a status to show off.

The protagonist of the banquet looked down at all this, staring at the young man who was dressed inappropriately with sinister and indifferent eyes, and sneered, "Humph."

Bai Yu, what a fool.

She turned her gaze to Lu Qinghuai again, and this time she softened her expression. But when she noticed that he was frowning slightly and covering his abdomen, she knew that he might have stomach discomfort.

Xiao Huai was not allowed to touch chocolate, but he had eaten so much just now. The man clenched his fists, his expression tense, and said something.

Lu Qinghuai was indeed not feeling well, but Xu Bai was beside him and he didn't want to make anyone worry, so he forced a smile and talked to the boy.

"Mr. Lu." The waiter came to Lu Qinghuai with a tray. The glass was obviously filled with hot water that was still misty. "Someone asked me to bring it."

Lu Qinghuai was very surprised. He looked around and found nothing unusual, so he reached out, held the quilt in his hand and said thank you.

"Brother Qinghuai?" Xu Bai also looked around, "Who gave it to you?" As if he had just discovered it, "You look so bad, are you feeling unwell? I'll help you sit over there for a while... It's all my fault, I didn't even notice..."

"don’t worry."

Feeling that the boy was more anxious than himself, he couldn't help but smile, "It's okay, maybe he drank too much just now, it will be fine in a while."

Xu Bai held Lu Qinghuai's arm, bit her lip, and thought with some jealousy: Why is Lu Qinghuai loved by so many people wherever he goes?

Why...I have tried so hard, but it still doesn't work?
