He pressed answer and listened in silence.
I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, but he rubbed his brow and cut off the call directly.
"Erxi, I need to step out for a bit." Ji Yebai's tone was full of apology.
"Just go if you have to."
Ji Yebai's Adam's apple bobbed, "Among the people I'm meeting, there's Dong Yingluo."
This woman, she dared to blackmail him!
Yet, he had no choice but to go.
As soon as Ning Xixi heard the name Dong Yingluo, she felt annoyed.
But, Ji Yebai was being honest, and it wouldn't be fair for her to make a fuss without reason.
The young girl pouted dejectedly, "Mhm, go ahead."
"Erxi..."
"I'm not stopping you, am I? What's wrong with me being a little jealous!"
Ji Yebai helplessly hugged her, "I'll come back as soon as I can."
He picked up his jacket scattered beside him, got out of bed, and Ning Xixi suddenly called after him, "Wait! Change into a different outfit before you go!"
