President, please comfort me.

Yijinyuan.

When Ah Chen arrived with Wen Qi and Xiao He, Ye Lin had already been sitting in the private room waiting for quite a while.

Seeing the large group of people coming in, Ye Lin rolled his eyes speechlessly: "Seriously? I just wanted to treat Xiao Qi to a meal, why are you all here to freeload?"

Tang Chao glanced at Xiao He, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said with interest, "Is that so? It seems the information was wrong. But since we're already here, I won't stand on ceremony."

Seeing this, Ah Chen also put on a fawning face: "Thank you for treating me to dinner, Brother Ye Lin."

Xiao pulled out a chair for Wen Qi, his tone smug: "Who cares about your food? I haven't even said you're taking up my wife's precious time yet."

Tang Chao was pouring tea for everyone when he heard this and his hand trembled, spilling tea. He smiled and said, "Sorry."

Wen Qi glared at Xiao He, then turned to Ye Lin with a smirk and joked, "Brother Ye Lin, what are you up to by suddenly inviting me to dinner?"

Ye Lin changed his previous style and his expression became quite serious: "No, how could I dare to have any intentions? Come on, let's order first, and we can talk while we eat."

Xiao He became much more obedient after being glared at by her, and gently handed her the menu: "Order whatever you want. It's his shop, so don't be polite with him."

"Yes, Xiaoqi, don't be so polite with me, we're all family."

“Okay.” Wen Qi readily accepted the menu and began studying it.

After Wen Qi finished ordering, Ye Lin didn't want to waste a moment. Ignoring everyone else, he went straight to Wen Qi and asked, "Xiao Qi, your best friend Chen Nuo, she doesn't have a boyfriend, right?"

Seeing that he was serious this time, the people at the table stopped trying to discourage him and listened to him silently.

Wen Qi was completely taken aback that he still had feelings for Chen Nuo. Last time, she thought he had just been infatuated and had already moved on to someone else. She stared at Ye Lin with her mouth agape in disbelief: "Ah, yes, what's wrong?"

Receiving a positive answer, Ye Lin felt much better and breathed a sigh of relief: "To be honest, sister-in-law, I like her and want to know more about her, so..."

"Hehe, I'd like to ask you for a favor."

Wen Qi paused for a few seconds, momentarily at a loss for words.

Xiao He understood and, fearing that Wen Qi would have difficulty refusing, he took the initiative to say, "It's okay, don't make it difficult for him. If it's not easy to help, then don't help. Let him figure it out himself."

After hesitating for a moment, Wen Qi looked at Ye Lin and said, "Brother Ye Lin, it's not that I don't want to help you, but Xiao Nuo doesn't have any plans to date right now, so you... I'm afraid you have no chance."

Ye Lin, a womanizer, was not about to be deterred by a few words. He said confidently, "It's okay. Just tell me her hobbies and criteria for choosing a partner. As for the rest, I'll figure it out myself."

Ye Lin defended himself: "She's always been aloof, but a few days ago she said she'd treat me to dinner another day. I was just worried I might accidentally upset her, so I wanted to find out more about her beforehand."

"Xiaoqi, just tell me about it."

Ye Lin looked at the three big men beside him, who were only focused on eating and didn't say a word. He felt disgusted and a little anxious: "Are you three starving ghosts? Stop eating and say something for me!"

Seeing his bad attitude, Tang Chao raised his head and bluntly exposed him: "You change your female companions every few days, and now you suddenly say you like someone? I don't believe it, brother. How can we speak up for you?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Qi looked over with some concern: "Brother Ye Lin, my best friend hates handsome but womanizing men the most. Just like Brother Tang Chao said, you should give up."

Ah Chen opened his mouth, about to speak, when Ye Lin interrupted him first. He looked at his brother with disappointment and said, "Alright, don't say anything, all of you, just eat in silence."

Then he turned to Wen Qi in a flattering manner: "Hey, Xiao Qi, don't listen to what that guy Tang Chao said, it's all fake. I've never had a girlfriend before, I promise I won't do that again."

Wen Qi narrowed her eyes, half believing and half doubting: "You just said she invited you to dinner?"

Ye Lin nodded frantically: "Yeah, her car broke down that day, and I happened to be passing by and helped her."

Wen Qi smiled and said truthfully, "She rarely talks to people she doesn't know well."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin instantly became excited: "Really? Then it seems I still have a chance, right?"

"I really don't know, but if you really want to pursue Xiao Nuo, you definitely can't have any female companions with you. As for what you just said about helping me out, I need to think about it carefully."

"Okay, okay, as long as you don't refuse, that's fine. Think about it first, and I'll definitely change. Just wait and see how I perform."

"Cough cough cough." Xiao He was drinking water when he choked on the familiar words and secretly glared at Ye Lin.

Wen Qi instantly understood his point of view, and a smile crept onto her lips.

With the important business settled, things became much easier. Ye Lin invited Wen Qi to the dessert shop they had mentioned last time over the weekend, and asked her to bring Tang Yue along.

Wen Qi declined, "No, Brother Ye Lin, I have to pick up a friend this weekend. Maybe next time."

Since he needed a favor and it was his sister-in-law, Ye Lin's attitude was very good: "Okay, whenever you want to go, just call me. I'm always available."

"Eat quickly, stop talking so much nonsense." Xiao He had been listening to Ye Lin and Wen Qi talk the whole meal, and now Ye Lin was asking his wife to have dessert in front of him. He looked at Ye Lin with displeasure.

After finishing their business, Ye Lin was also hungry, so he started to call out to Wen Qi: "Eat, eat, eat! Come on, Xiao Qi, try this red date, white fungus, and lotus seed soup. I ordered it especially for you."

Ye Lin already understood women very well, and now, in order to win the heart of the beauty, he went all out to win her favor, ignoring Xiao He's sour face and taking meticulous care of Wen Qi throughout the meal.

The dinner party ended, and I got home at 10 p.m.

Xiao He looked at Wen Qi with a delighted expression and said in a sour tone, "You like someone like Ye Lin?"

Wen Qi smiled gently, her eyes sparkling, and nodded: "Someone like Ye Lin, handsome, rich, gentle and considerate, I don't think any girl would dislike him. There's definitely a reason why he has so many female companions."

Xiao He, who had been holding back his emotions all night, finally couldn't hold back any longer. After listening, he went upstairs without looking back.

"Hey, Xiao He, wait for me, I have something to ask you." Wen Qi saw him go up and immediately followed him, calling out.

Seeing that she was catching up, Xiao He slowed down. Wen Qi quickly followed, and the two walked side by side. "Tell me about Ye Lin's character. I want to know more about him. After all, this concerns my best friend's lifelong happiness."

Xiao He felt a pang of jealousy, but he could still see the situation clearly. Now was not the time to throw a tantrum; it was better to take the opportunity to impress and gain some points. After thinking it through, he said with an arrogant look, "Sure, how many points?"

Wen Qi glanced at him sideways. "Trying to manipulate me? No way!"

With a hiss, he said with great force, "Tell me or not! If you don't, I'll deduct five points!"

She held up five fingers and waved them in front of Xiao He's eyes: "By the way, friendly reminder, Mr. Xiao, you are currently at a negative five points."

"No way, you're being so unreasonable, kid." Xiao He was immediately put on the receiving end of the situation, and his momentum suddenly plummeted.

"Smart people don't reason with girls. Humph, fine, I'll go ask Brother Tang and Brother Chen." Wen Qi said, turning her head and walking towards the bedroom without looking back.

With a "bang," the door slammed shut.

Seeing this, Xiao He panicked and hurriedly went to knock on the door, his voice tense: "I said no, open the door, wife."
