Providing For Lu Tingxiao

At night.

After he had sent Ning Xi and Little Treasure back to the Regal Riveria hotel, Lu Tingxiao did not go home right away. He called Lu Jingli and asked him to meet at a bar instead.

"Bro, you asked me out to a bar! I thought I was hallucinating!"

Under the dim light, Lu Tingxiao’s face was hidden in the shadows. There was a long silence before he spoke up, "Is it possible?"

"Possible? For?" Lu Jingli was confused.

"Ning Xi...might have fallen for someone else," Lu Tingxiao said.

Lu Jingli opened his eyes wide. "Huh? Who?"

"Me."

Lu Jingli almost spat out the drink he just gulped. "Why do you think so?"

"Feels like it."

Lu Jingli scratched his head. "Bro, did something happen today?"

There was a thick knot in between Lu Tingxiao’s brows. "It seems like she said...she likes me."

"What?! Xiao Xi Xi said she likes you?" Lu Jingli recovered from his excitement after a while, "Wait, why did you say 'seems like'?"
