Dongfang Ling recalled that she was almost home and called Bai Qingzhu, who answered quickly.
"Lingling, how are you?"
"I'm fine, what about you?"
"I'm fine too, Lingling, I'm really sorry, I've made you suffer with me again."
"That's why we're good friends. But no worries, if you feel bad about it, just have your family's Lijin treat me to a big meal."
"No problem."
Xiao Lijin's answer surprised Dongfang Ling, as Bai Qingzhu had apparently put her on speakerphone.
"Qingzhu, I'm telling you, you really have no sense of brotherhood, letting a grown man listen in on our conversation?"
Xiao Lijin was speechless, probably only Dongfang Ling would dare to speak to him like this.
"So, you don't want the big meal anymore?"
"Are you threatening me?"
On the other end, Xiao Lijin felt Bai Qingzhu's angry glare... and he immediately caved in.
"No, whenever you want me to treat you, I will."
