Wen Bai closed his eyes, and after a while, he felt the person behind him seemed to have woken up.
He didn't want to move, just lay there with his eyes closed.
After that, there was no more movement from behind him, but Wen Bai could feel that Su Ying had not left.
Could emotions make one lose their mind so much?
Was he looking at him?
Didn't he see enough last night?
He didn't understand.
But thinking about his decision to appease Su Ying and provide the expected returns, he magnanimously decided to let Su Ying look his fill, so that he wouldn't do anything troublesome once he was in a good mood.
After a while, Wen Bai felt the person beside him get up.
He sighed in his heart, finally having seen enough.
Then he heard footsteps in the room, light footsteps moving from near to far, then the sound of a cabinet or drawer opening?
Following that was the sound of metal clashing, and then footsteps moving from far to near.
A corner of the quilt was lifted, and Wen Bai felt the warmth inside the quilt rapidly dissipate, his legs exposed.
A warm hand touched his feet, and with a soft click, Wen Bai felt a chill on his ankle.
He opened his eyes, sat up lazily, and saw a silver ornament being placed on his ankle.
On the dark gray bedsheet, it looked surprisingly harmonious.
"What is this?"
An ankle accessory?
Su Ying was very satisfied with the scene before him, just as he had expected.
"Does it look good?"
Wen Bai couldn't appreciate it; he didn't like wearing such things.
But thinking about the decision he made last night, going along with the other person was also a form of emotional value, right?
Su Ying seemed quite happy now.
Indeed, Su Ying's emotions were filled with pleasure at this moment.
Wen Bai curled up his legs and looked at the ornament on his ankle: "It's inconvenient."
It would be troublesome to wear socks, and the pant legs would be deformed if he wore pants.
"That's true." Su Ying thought for a moment, walked over, took a key, opened the "foot accessory," and took it off.
"We'll wear it again when you need it in the future," Su Ying said, exceptionally gently.
Wen Bai shook his head inwardly; he probably wouldn't have such a need.
Wen Bai sat by the window and looked at his phone for a while. He still decided to leave the location tracking on; it didn't affect anything anyway.
Lin Shuangshuang, sitting opposite him, had already ordered.
The waiter brought over two drinks.
Lin Shuangshuang placed one in front of Wen Bai and looked at him speechlessly: "So what did you mean by that last thing you sent yesterday?"
Wen Bai, out of character, began to earnestly list Ji Tianle's virtues: "He's foolish and rich, devoted in love, and fell for you at first sight."
That was all.
Ji Tianle really didn't have many merits in his eyes.
In fact, the main problem was that Wen Bai didn't know what the female lead wanted, nor did he understand why people needed a relationship or why they would fall into one.
After all, these were not necessities for him.
Lin Shuangshuang looked at Wen Bai as if he were a child playing a prank and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, okay, I know you two are getting along well. Mr. Ji is indeed a good person. I accidentally broke his phone once and offered to pay him, but he refused." Thinking of something, Lin Shuangshuang wore a reminiscent expression. "He is truly kind, but not suited for such jokes."
They hadn't talked for long when the food was just served, and Lin Shuangshuang received a call.
When she returned.
"Wen Bai, I'm really, really, really sorry. I was supposed to treat you to a meal, but now I have to leave. My company is asking me to go back right now, it seems to be about design drafts. Please don't be angry! Next time, next time I will definitely treat you again, no, several times! I've already booked those places I mentioned to you before, we'll go together then!" She clasped her hands together, making a pleading and apologetic expression.
Wen Bai felt a genuine increase in his affinity for Lin Shuangshuang: "If you have something to do, you go first. I'll eat and then leave."
Wen Bai now had a table full of delicacies, someone had paid, and no one was trying to snatch it away.
He genuinely felt that it was perfectly fine for Lin Shuangshuang to leave him to enjoy it all.
Lin Shuangshuang was truly embarrassed and apologized repeatedly before leaving. Seeing Wen Bai continuing to say considerate words, Lin Shuangshuang felt even more guilty.
As she walked to the door, she turned back and looked at Wen Bai, who was sitting by the window with a large table of food all to himself. She took out her phone and sent a message.
Wen Bai was happily eating when suddenly someone sat opposite him.
Wen Bai: "?"
Ji Tianle looked at Wen Bai's extremely unwelcoming expression: "You think I want to be here? Shuangshuang said she asked you out and felt bad leaving you alone, so she asked her good buddy to keep you company..."
Wen Bai ignored the person in front of him and continued to attack his delicious food.
Seeing that Wen Bai wasn't paying attention to him, Ji Tianle, acting very familiar, picked up an unopened pair of chopsticks and extended them...
Halfway through, his chopsticks were intercepted by the chopsticks of the person who had been eating with his head down.
Ji Letian: "..."
"Are you serious? This huge table, can you finish it?" Ji Tianle asked Wen Bai, who was guarding his food, with a soulful question.
Wen Bai answered affirmatively: "I can finish it."
Ji Tianle was at a loss and waved: "Waiter, add dishes!"
He was ready to eat when Lin Shuangshuang sent him a message calling him over. He was still hungry at noon!
Seeing that the other party wasn't touching his food, Wen Bai then happily continued to eat with his head down.
The more Ji Tianle looked at Wen Bai, the more annoyed he became. He had rushed over to be company, yet he couldn't get a bite to eat himself and had to pay out of his own pocket, while the person in front of him didn't seem particularly grateful.
However, after waiting for a while.
"Hey~"
Wen Bai continued to eat.
"I'm talking to you!"
In his haste, Wen Bai gave Ji Tianle a look: "Speak."
"Why are you so close to Shuangshuang? Eating out alone, you don't like her, do you?"
Wen Bai directly gave him an eye roll.
"Ah? No, hehe~ That's good, that's good."
Wen Bai suddenly remembered that his current mission had temporarily shifted focus: wasn't it to get Lin Shuangshuang and this person together?
He looked at Ji Tianle: "If you like her, then work hard and pursue her."
Ji Tianle stared at Wen Bai in confusion, who was suddenly so supportive of him.
"Hehe~" He chuckled foolishly, "You also think we're a good match? I thought only I felt that way."
Wen Bai swallowed his food and added, "You must get married!"
Once married, in a plot world focused on the romance between the male and female leads, it would be a complete deviation.
Ji Tianle hadn't even thought about marriage so far ahead; he just felt he was in love at first sight and wanted to be together first.
But hearing Wen Bai say that now, he suddenly had such thoughts. Getting married to Shuangshuang...
Suddenly, a feeling of destiny washed over him.
It should be great!
But Ji Tianle had never pursued a woman in his life. Although his older brother was a Casanova, he was a blank slate.
Looking at Wen Bai's exquisite and calm face.
Ji Tianle shamelessly asked, "Um, I've never pursued a woman before. You look very experienced, do you have any tips?"
Wen Bai, with a blank expression, slowly stopped chewing and put down his chopsticks.
He had never liked anyone, nor did he have any experience in pursuing someone.
After serious consideration, a face suddenly flashed in his mind.
His words? There should be a way.
