Ning Yuechen brought his friend to his room, and they sat down on the rocking chair on the warmly decorated small balcony, chatting while basking in the sun.

"Youchen, we haven't seen each other for a long time. You don't know how much I missed you." Bai Jinmo said, holding her friend's hand.

"I missed you too. How long will you stay this time? We can have a good time together."

"I don't have anything to do recently, so I can stay here for a few more days." Bai Jinmo said.

The reason why she rushed to the mainland in such a hurry was because she learned that her good friend was injured and recuperating at home, otherwise she would not have suddenly appeared here.

Ning Yuechen said: "Okay, I'm recovering at home and can't run around. I'll be very happy to have you accompany me."

"I am also very happy."

The two chatted for a long time until it was completely dark. Just then, Aunt Qian knocked on the door to remind them to have dinner, so they went to the restaurant together.

At this time, Bai Jingyuan and Bai Yi had already taken their seats.

Bai Jinmo quickly greeted them obediently: "Hello, uncle, hello, sister Bai."

Bai Yi responded indifferently: "Jinmo, long time no see."

Bai Jinmo thought to herself that her cousin was such a noble person but such a forgetful person. They had clearly celebrated the New Year together at home not long ago.

All I can say is that there are too many people in their family, so it is normal that the other party doesn’t remember a member like me who has no sense of existence.

But he responded, "It's been a while since we last met."

Bai Jingyuan smiled kindly and said, "Jinmo, your father told me yesterday that you were coming to visit, but the company has been too busy recently, and your uncle doesn't have time to spend more time with you. If you need anything, just tell the housekeeper and he will arrange it."

Bai Jinmo looked at the father and daughter sitting at the table. They looked exactly the same in both demeanor and aura. She felt even more timid and whispered, "Okay, uncle."

Ning Yuechen naturally noticed her discomfort, and hurriedly took her hand and sat down at the dining table, then squeezed her palm comfortingly.

Feeling her concern, Bai Jinmo felt more relaxed and winked at her.

Bai Yi saw the tender scene between the two.

Her expression remained unchanged, but the suspicion in her heart, accompanied by some inexplicable feeling of dissatisfaction, became increasingly serious.

Ning Yuechen was considerate of his friend's feelings and kept helping her pick up food at the dinner table, fearing that she would feel uncomfortable and not dare to eat more.

Because all her attention was on her friend, she didn't notice the gazes from the opposite side.

Bai Yi looked at Ning Yuechen's concerned expression and attentive behavior, and instantly lost his appetite and put down the cutlery in his hand.

Said to Bai Jingyuan: "Dad, I'm full. I'm going back to my room to rest first."

"Okay, you've been working very hard recently, go to bed early."

"Will do."

Bai Yi then looked at Bai Jinmo, who happened to be looking at him as well, so he said, "Sister Jinmo, don't be restrained. This is also your home. If you need anything, just tell the housekeeper or the aunt at home."

When she said this, her eyes were on the person beside her who was looking down and keeping silent.

Bai Jinmo replied somewhat reservedly: "Okay, thank you Sister Bai."

Bai Yi looked thoughtfully at Ning Yuechen, who was still lowering his head and pretending to eat, and said casually: "I work during the day and will be at home at night. If you need any help from me, just let me know. You're welcome."

Bai Jinmo almost couldn't hold the chopsticks in her hand, and hurriedly stood up and responded: "Okay, thank you Sister Bai."

Although her cousin has a cold personality and a strong aura, she is not like her successful brothers and sisters in the family who either act superior or ignore juniors like herself who have mediocre qualifications.

Perhaps it was because of this sharp contrast that Bai Yi, her cousin whom she seldom met, could be described as humble and polite in her attitude towards her.

However, maybe it was because they didn't have much contact, even though the other party had never made things difficult for her, Bai Jinmo was still a little afraid of her.

It was in this moment of panic that she heard Bai Yi say, "We are all family, saying thank you is too polite."

"Okay, don't tell me."

Seeing that she looked like she was facing a formidable enemy, Bai Yi said nothing more and left.

Instead of returning to her room, she went to the underground garage and drove all the way to Liu Yingzhen's home.

Their two homes were not far from each other. Liu Yingzhen, who had just answered the phone and walked into her yard, saw a vehicle coming.

She walked over and knocked on the driver's door. The car window was blinded, revealing Bai Yi's beautiful face, which was small and delicate, but had cold features.

I couldn't help but tease: "You came to see me so late at night, did you miss me?"

"No, we just met yesterday." Bai Yi answered seriously.

Liu Yingzhen curled her lips and thought to herself that she was really rude. It was boring to joke with such a serious person who didn't know what humor was.

So I changed the subject: "Then why are you here? To eat for free?"

Bai Yi got off the car and said, "I've had dinner."

Liu Yingzhen couldn't help but roll her eyes, turned around and said, "Let's go, let's talk in my room if you have anything to say."

There must be something important that could make this person drive here to find me without saying a word.

Bai Yi would not come out at this time in the evening unless he had any social engagements.
