Fang Qing had no less savings than Yan Li, but he was ashamed to tell anyone about the source of that huge sum of money.

When he was about to leave the set, Fang Qing returned the bank card to Yan Li, and he told Yan Li that he did not want to buy a house in Tanghai City.

He doesn't like this city.

If he gets tired of staying in the entertainment industry in the future, he will leave here without hesitation.

"Then mom will keep the money. When you get married in the future, mom will change a villa for you in Zhong'an City." Yan Li said with a smile.

"Well, it's still early."

Yan Li knew Fang Qing's orientation, she smiled and said softly: "This kind of thing is not up to you, can you know when you meet someone you like? Anyway, Mom has no requirements for this, as long as you like it That's fine, Mom trusts your eyes."

"...Um."

On the way to the hotel, Chi Yi chatted with Yan Li about everyday life, and Chi Yi chatted endlessly about anecdotes from his childhood, with a bright smile on his face, which also infected Yan Li talking and laughing all the way.

Chi Yi has been very fond of Yan Li since he was a child. During the years when the Chi Fang and his family got along well, Yan Li treated him like her own son. Whenever she prepared something for Fang Qing, she would always prepare an extra copy for Chi Yi.

Those entanglements with Chi Zhengshan did not affect Yan Li's attitude towards Chi Yi.

Seeing her mother chatting happily with Chi Yi, Fang Qing was also in a good mood along the way.

The three of them sat down in the hotel box, and just as the dishes were served, Chi Yi's cell phone rang.

"I'll go out and answer the company's phone call. Aunt Li, you and Xiao Fang will eat first." Chi Yi said, got up and left the box.

After Chi Yi went out, Yan Li turned her head and smiled at Fang Qing and said, "Xiao Chi is much more mature than before, but the feeling is still as cordial as before."

"...well, he's pretty good."

Chi Yi didn't answer the phone until he left the box.

"Mr. Chi, people have already gone upstairs."

The corner of Chi Yi's mouth slightly raised: "Understood."

When Lu Lixiao got out of the elevator, the business partner beside him was chatting and laughing with him attentively, and he responded a little perfunctorily.

Turning from the elevator into the corridor, Lu Lixiao noticed Chi Yi leaning against the wall next to the door of a box from a distance.

Chi Yi was on the phone and didn't seem to notice Lu Lixiao who was walking towards him.

In Lu Lixiao's eyes, Chi Yi is just an incompetent second-generation ancestor who was rejected by Fang Qing. If it wasn't for his friendship with Fang Qing, he wouldn't give such a guy a look.

"Don't worry, I'll go back after dinner with Fang Qing." Chi Yi said into the phone, "...well, let's do that first, Fang Qing is still waiting for me, so I'll hang up first."

Just as Chi Yi hung up the phone, he looked up and saw Lu Lixiao walking in front of him.

Lu Lixiao's gaze swept across Chi Yi's face, and then his sharp gaze moved across the box door next to Chi Yi silently.

For the banquet arranged by the management for Lu Lixiao, the box was set next to Chi Yi's box, and the distance between the two doors was only two or three meters away.

Lu Lixiao withdrew his gaze and didn't react much, but the moment he entered the box door, his long and narrow eyes looked at Chi Yi next to him without any warmth.

Chi Yi shrugged slightly at Lu Lixiao, smiling indifferently.

Back in the private room, Chi Yi continued to eat as if nothing had happened, and was chatting with Yan Li, when Fang Qing took out his mobile phone to check the text message he just received.

The strangeness that flashed across Fang Qing's eyes was also fully seen by Chi Yi.

"Xiao Fang, what's wrong with you?" Chi Yi asked.

"No, nothing." Fang Qing smiled, stood up and left the table, "I'm going to the bathroom..."

After speaking, Fang Qing left in a hurry.

After leaving the box door, Fang Qing was about to call Lu Lixiao, when the door of the box next door was suddenly pushed open, and Lu Lixiao walked out with a gloomy expression.

Fang Qing looked at Lu Lixiao in disbelief.

The text message he received just now was from Lu Lixiao asking him to call him back immediately, but he never expected that Lu Lixiao would actually be eating in the box next to his.

What kind of evil is this...

"Are you here?" Fang Qing quickly calmed down, with a little uneasiness in her eyes, "What a coincidence."

The corner of Lu Lixiao's mouth twitched, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Scared you?"

"...No, it was just an accident."

"Who's inside?" Lu Lixiao cut to the chase.

Seeing that Lu Lixiao saw her without any surprise, Fang Qing guessed that Lu Lixiao might have known that she was here in advance.

Perhaps this man knew who was in the box, and he was just trying to test himself.

"My mother came to visit me, so I will accompany her to have a meal here." Fang Qing said.

Lu Lixiao narrowed his eyes slightly: "What else?"

"There's also Chi Yi." Fang Qing didn't hesitate, and said calmly, "He brought my mother here for me. I didn't know until they arrived at the set this afternoon."

Lu Lixiao's face didn't recover much: "This Chi Yi couldn't catch up with you, and he started to please your family. He still hasn't given up on you."

"Chi Yi's family had a good relationship with my family in the early years, and Chi Yi can be regarded as my mother watched him grow up. It is natural for him to be nice to my mother." Fang Qing patiently explained, "I don't have the kind of thoughts you said."

"You enjoyed your meal?" Lu Lixiao looked at the door next to Fang Qing meaningfully, and sneered, "You seem like a family of three."

Hearing Lu Lixiao's eccentric tone, Fang Qing knew that this man was about to lose his nerve again.

"I will go back as soon as possible." Fang Qing said softly, "I will try my best to get to the apartment before you, so...if there is nothing else, I will go in first, and your friends should be waiting for you."

"Don't ask me to come in and sit down?"

Fang Qing's face was extremely unnatural: "Our relationship is not very convenient..."

Lu Lixiao snorted, turned and went back to the private room.

He could guess that all of this was Chi Yi's deliberate calculation, maybe that guy knew that he was here for a party tonight, and deliberately booked the box next to him to entertain Fang Qing and that woman.

Knowing that this was the other party's intentional provocation, he still couldn't control the anger in his heart.

He didn't like the feeling of being treated as a shameful existence by Fang Qing...

Returning to the box again, Fang Qing's mood could not be as happy as it was at the beginning. Thinking that Lu Lixiao was next door, he felt restless.

He didn't want Lu Lixiao to meet his mother, because he didn't know what words would come out of this uncertain man's mouth.

When leaving the box after eating, Fang Qing was glad that the box next door was not over yet.

After leaving the hotel, the three of them went for a walk by the nearby artificial lake, where there would be a firework show every other month, and this month's firework show happened to be tonight.

Before the fireworks started, Yan Li was attracted by a small stall selling sachets and purses. The vendor used a car with the trunk open as the stall, and many people gathered around the stall to pick things from a pile of gadgets. Li was among them.

Seeing her mother's happy face, Fang Qing felt relieved.

He hadn't seen his mother so relaxed in a long time....

"Thank you, Chi Yi." Fang Qing said to Chi Yi with a smile.

Chi Yi smirked and scratched the back of his head: "It's a small matter, as long as you and Aunt Li are happy."

After a pause, Chi Yi lowered his voice slightly, and asked softly: "Xiao Fang, can we still be friends? I...I have no other thoughts, I just want to be like you before."

Fang Qing smiled: "Of course."

Lu Lixiao actually didn't want to follow, he knew that Fang Qing wouldn't dare to do anything out of line behind his back, and he didn't want to be so narrow-minded that he wouldn't even let Fang Qing go shopping with his mother.

Just can't help it...

Couldn't help but followed all the way.

Stupid and ridiculous, deliberately concealing himself in the crowd, he seemed to be shielded from the world by an invisible barrier, and only looked at Fang Qing from a distance with a smile on his face...

Lu Lixiao noticed that Fang Qing hadn't smiled at him for a long time.
