"Tomorrow, you'll set up a meeting with him, so I can properly take your brother out for a meal!"
"...?!"
Asking Zuo Yijue to have a meal with him?
Chi Xingye's mind was buzzing, taken completely off guard by his sudden request.
At this moment, her beautiful eyes slightly widened in surprise, "No! Chengyan, there's no need!"
"Why not?" Helian Chengyan furrowed his brows, looking at her perplexed.
Then, he raised his hand, tucking the hair that had been blown around by the night breeze behind her ear, gently caressing her cheek, as he said sincerely, "Yeye, we've known each other for a long time, and I've never met any of your actual relatives. Seeing as your brother is also in UMK, and you're now with me, it would be wrong on a personal and rational level if I didn't meet him!"
"...?!" Chi Xingye, usually quick-witted, suddenly found herself at a loss for words to refuse him.
She pursed her lips, then pursed them again.
Her gaze darted from side to side.
