~7 min read 1,334 words

Ji Mingqian shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Do you think I could have left if they hadn’t gone back?"

Ye Jiuliang looked at the private room behind him. "Who did you arrange to meet here?"

"I was running a promotion for a movie, came here to grab a bite," he said.

"Running a promotion?" Ye Jiuliang teased, "I thought you never go to these things."

Ji Mingqian gave her a look. "I’m on good terms with the director."

Ye Jiuliang, "How long will you stay around here?"

"Depends on the mood." Anyway, he had nothing to do these days, so he could stay for as long or as little as he wanted.

Ye Jiuliang raised an eyebrow. "Wanna come over and eat with us?"

He asked, "With Li Mochan?"

Ye Jiuliang gave an affirmative sound.

"Forget it," Ji Mingqian said with undisguised disdain, "I’m not going. Just seeing that jealous pot annoys me."

"You’re asking for a beating," Ye Jiuliang glared at him.

Ji Mingqian clicked his tongue. "See, I say one thing and you’re already thinking of hitting me. Really, raising pigs is better these days; the grass is always greener in other people’s yards."

Ye Jiuliang laughed in amusement and walked back to her own private room, "Go eat your meal."

She had barely taken two steps before she turned back.

"Did you visit Asheng?"

Ji Mingqian’s expression stiffened, and he said nonchalantly, "Had some stuff to handle nearby and just swung by."

"Having a guilty conscience?" Ye Jiuliang teased.

Ji Mingqian snorted, "Guilty for what? His injury has nothing to do with me."

"Then why visit him?"

"We’ve worked on an endorsement together before. Although not friends, we’re still acquainted. Isn’t it normal for me to visit him when he’s ill?" Ji Mingqian argued calmly.

Ye Jiuliang smiled with a squint, "But how come I heard you couldn’t adapt over there, even got sick with vomiting and diarrhea?"

"Go back to your Li Mochan," Ji Mingqian said irritably.

Having ruffled his feathers, Ye Jiuliang left with a schadenfreude smile.

As his anger dissipated, Ji Mingqian pursed his lips, wondering if that guy’s foot injury had healed yet.

Back in the private room, Ye Jiuliang brought up running into Ji Mingqian with Li Mochan.

"I don’t know if Asheng is better yet. Maybe we should invite him over to hang out," Ye Jiuliang said thoughtfully as she enjoyed the crab meat peeled by Li Mochan.

A few days ago, during a video call with the old lady, she saw Jiang Yisheng still looking quite pale. He probably got bored staying at home.

Just like her, staying home with nothing to do made it difficult to find motivation.

After so many days, with her prescribed medicine and the special ointment she provided for his leg injury, he should have mostly recovered by now.

"I spoke to grandma on the phone last night. Asheng left the house the day before yesterday," Li Mochan said in a deep voice.

Ye Jiuliang was surprised, "Where did he go?"

"Not sure, didn’t ask."

Ye Jiuliang laughed lightly, "You’re quite the cousin."

She put down her chopsticks and dialed Jiang Yisheng’s number on her mobile phone.

After a short while, the call connected, and his warm tone came through.

"Jiuliang."

"Asheng, grandma said you left the house. How’s your leg injury?" Ye Jiuliang asked.

On the other end, Jiang Yisheng curled his lips into a smile, "It’s healed."

"Where are you now?"

"My new album was released yesterday, just got done with everything, and now I’m dining with Yi," Jiang Yisheng said.

Ye Jiuliang extended an invitation, "Mohan and I are hanging out in C city, why don’t you two come join us?"

On the other end, Feng Yi was sitting right beside Jiang Yisheng, naturally hearing what Ye Jiuliang said over the phone.

His eyes brightened, "Sure, I’m not tied up with anything right now anyway."

Being with that couple, there’s always a good show to watch.

Jiang Yisheng smiled helplessly, "Alright, send me the address."

Ye Jiuliang hooked his lip, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Jiuliang turned to meet the man’s resentful gaze, stunned.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Seeing she still had no clue, Li Mochan reminded her helplessly, "Little wolf cub, this is supposed to be a vacation just for the two of us."

Realizing what he was referring to, Ye Jiuliang couldn’t help but laugh and said, "It’s more fun with more people, and besides, we’ll have plenty of chances to vacation just the two of us in the future, this one time won’t matter."

A helpless smile appeared on Li Mochan’s lips.

Meanwhile.

After eating, Feng Yi and Jiang Yisheng went straight to the airport.

In the car, Jiang Yisheng was reviewing the data for the new album launch sent by the work team.

"Asheng, why haven’t you been playing games recently?" Feng Yi glanced at him, dividing his attention, "You were constantly asking me to teach you how to play a while ago, weren’t you?"

With his words, Jiang Yisheng’s curled eyelashes trembled, finding it hard to continue looking at the content on the screen.

After a moment, he spoke in a very soft voice, "It’s not for me."

"What do you mean?" Feng Yi frowned, not immediately grasping his meaning.

"Gaming is too difficult, I’m a black hole when it comes to games; I’m not suited for it," Jiang Yisheng self-deprecatingly said.

Not detecting anything amiss, Feng Yi pulled a smile, "You even realize you’re a gaming black hole, huh? Speaking of games, it’s been a long time since I last saw Mingqian; we should find time to spar on the racing game again."

Upon the mention of Ji Mingqian, Jiang Yisheng stopped talking and calmly gazed at the files continuously popping up on his phone.

"Asheng, aren’t you the one who recorded the ending theme for Mingqian’s new movie? Haven’t you guys been in touch recently?" Feng Yi asked.

Jiang Yisheng replied in an indifferent tone, "No."

During their conversation, they arrived at the airport.

Jiang Yisheng got out of the car, taking his violin from the back seat.

Feng Yi closed the car door and, seeing the violin in his hand, smiled helplessly, "Are you going to take the violin with you?"

Jiang Yisheng nodded; he thought after dinner he would return to the company, but an unexpected trip to City C came up, so he had to take the violin along, it wasn’t heavy anyway.

Knowing this was his habit, Feng Yi just laughed, "Let’s go."

No luggage was brought; after all, clothes could be bought at any time.

...

Rongda Hotel

Luxury cars were everywhere as evening lights began to glow at the hotel entrance.

Unable to stay put in the hotel, Ye Jiuliang dragged Li Mochan out for a walk.

They passed by a boutique with a unique and distinctive decor.

From a distance, a sea of green.

Walking inside, the counter and racks were all set in shades of green, even the shopkeeper’s clothes were green.

The look was oddly eerie.

The shoppers here were mostly young girls or couples.

To avoid trouble, Ye Jiuliang and Li Mochan each wore a hat, and they put on masks as well.

"Mohan, this," Ye Jiuliang picked up a little sheep headband and handed it to him, "You wear this."

Li Mochan took it in hand, glanced at it, and purposely twisted her words, "Buy it to put on you."

"Then forget it," Ye Jiuliang snatched back the headband, placing it back where it was.

Turning around, she saw something and ran over to it.

"Mohan, let’s buy this," she picked up an item from the dazzling display of goods.

The packaging box was emblazoned with the words "Lie Detector" in large characters.

Li Mochan came over, glanced at the thing in her hand, and his thin lips curled slightly, "Can you trust this thing?"

It was all stuff to trick young girls.
