He Lili was a glutton. She added a few more dishes along the way, and everyone was full in the end. He Lili alone consumed two large plates of meat by herself.

Out of the five of them, Ye Mubai drove while Susu and He Lili hailed a taxi and left together. Ye Muqing said little throughout the night, making people feel she was just Ye Mubai’s shadow. For her to respect her brother so much, how could people not envy such love between siblings?

“Du Jiuyuan, where do you live?” Ye Mubai asked.

Du Jiuyuan gave her address without hesitation.

“What a coincidence. After returning to the country, we also bought two houses in that area. Get in the car. I’ll drop you off.” Ye Mubai opened the door of the passenger seat like a gentleman.

Ye Muqing was already in the backseat. Her silence had become synonymous with her.

“I’ll sit in the back! I wish to talk with Muqing.” Du Jiuyuan opened the back door and got into the car quickly.

Ye Mubai closed the passenger seat door awkwardly and strolled to the other side. He got into the car and started the engine.

The three of them did not speak on the way back. It was only when the car entered the residential area that Ye Mubai asked, “Our houses are in Building No.1. What about you?”

Du Jiuyuan pointed in a specific direction. She was only one building away from Ye Mubai and Ye Muqing’s house. The car stopped next to the red Maybach. Du Jiuyuan got off and went upstairs after saying goodbye.

However, Ye Mubai’s car did not move at all. He watched Du Jiuyuan gradually disappear into the distance. Finally, Ye Muqing said, “Brother, it’s time for me to take my medicine. Let’s go home!”

“Okay.” Only then did Ye Mubai react. He steered the car and went home.

…

Du Jiuyuan used her spare key to open the door. Once inside, she was utterly shocked upon switching on the lights.

“Ji Jingchen, are you insane? Did you plan to scare me to death?” Du Jiuyuan thought that there was a burglar in the house and her heart skipped a beat.

Ji Jingchen was dressed in a dark blue suit and was half-leaning on the sofa. There were a few types of expensive mineral water on the coffee table. Du Jiuyuan took off her shoes and took a few steps to look around. She realized that there was no one else in the room.

“Who was that man?” Ji Jingchen’s voice sounded like it was uncomfortably squeezed out from his teeth.

Du Jiuyuan was stunned. She immediately realized that Ji Jingchen was talking about Ye Mubai.

“It’s none of your business!” Du Jiuyuan hated the way Ji Jingchen questioned her.

“How far have the two of you gotten?” Ji Jingchen’s tone didn’t change as he continued to question her.

Du Jiuyuan was frightened by his appearance. She thought back to how he had lost control yesterday, and her heart ached a little.

However, she still didn’t relent. “It is none of your business, CEO Ji. Besides, it’s very late. Please leave my house.”

Ji Jingchen’s eyes turned red when he heard Du Jiuyuan address him as CEO Ji again. He stood up and walked in front of her. His tall figure completely enveloped her. “Yuanyuan, tell me, who is that man? What is your relationship with him?”

Ji Jingchen’s imposing manner made people shudder. Du Jiuyuan avoided his direct gaze. “He is the new designer that my studio hired. Didn’t you see his sister sitting beside me? He Lili organized a welcoming dinner for the both of them. I didn’t drive, so he and his sister dropped me off on the way back.” Du Jiuyuan explained in a bad mood.

Ji Jingchen’s gloomy aura slowly dissipated, and his tightly furrowed brows relaxed. He then said, “Let’s eat!”

Du Jiuyuan suspected that Ji Jingchen was deaf. She clearly explained that she had already had dinner.

However, she still walked to the dining table and saw four dishes alongside a soup neatly placed on it. The soup was already cold. It seemed that Ji Jingchen had been waiting for her for a long time.

Suddenly, Du Jiuyuan thought about something. “You made all these?”

Ji Jingchen nodded and did not deny it.

However, the kitchen looked clean, showing that it hasn’t been used recently. Du Jiuyuan remembered that she had previously tried Ji Jingchen’s cooking. She picked up her chopsticks and casually took a bite. It tasted like the food from Ji Jingchen’s favorite restaurant. Du Jiuyuan glimpsed the takeaway box in the trash can and immediately put down her chopsticks.

“Didn’t Peter teach you that the takeaway box needs to be destroyed?” Even without the takeaway box, Du Jiuyuan could still identify the taste.

The atmosphere was very awkward. For the first time, Ji Jingchen looked embarrassed and said in a low voice, “I haven’t eaten yet.”

“I’ve eaten. If you want to eat, eat alone.” Du Jiuyuan turned around and was about to enter the bedroom.

“In the future, don’t do that again.” Ji Jingchen said this for no reason..
