CHAPTER 561: CHAPTER 561: AGREED TO GO PLAY

Little White was particularly nice to her, and she always remembered it in her heart. In her mind, Little White had already become a very good friend to her.

If she had known earlier that Chu Yibai was Little White, perhaps she wouldn’t have felt so heartbroken about the octopus balls that day.

After they had made plans, Chu Yibai was especially happy. Seeing someone approaching, he immediately put on his hat and turned to leave.

Snow began to fall again at night, drifting sparsely through the air, and the weather was a bit colder than the day before. A thin layer of snow accumulated on the ground, and there was snow on the eaves too. Yun Qiluo watched with great interest.

Perhaps it was due to her going to pick up Yan Yan last night. The man specially dared to come back for dinner, just to accompany her.

Yun Qiluo was particularly happy to see him and immediately abandoned her food to throw herself into his arms.

Burying her face into his embrace, she looked at him with sparkling eyes:

"Beautiful woman, why did you come back today? Is everything resolved?"

Yan Yan patted her little head and said softly, "I came to have a meal with you. I still have to go to the company later."

"I see..."

Yun Qiluo was instantly a little disappointed.

The man paused for a moment and rarely comforted her: "It’ll only be for a while longer."

"Got it."

After she answered, Yan Yan pulled her to the dining table to eat together, but she barely ate a few bites before she couldn’t eat anymore.

He couldn’t help but frown: "Why are you eating so little today?"

Yun Qiluo immediately felt guilty: "I... I ate a lot before leaving school."

Mainly, Little White had his assistant bring her an abundance of delicious treats. Her dorm’s cabinet was completely stuffed.

Ever since meeting her in reality, Chu Yibai had been thinking about treating her well. Before, he couldn’t buy her food online, so when they met in real life, he wanted to buy everything he had wanted to before.

Yan Yan asked again, "A couple of days ago, there were bad guys at school. Why didn’t you tell me?"

He only found out about it today.

But what he knew was similar to the police’s information, assuming it was something she had discovered.

He was solely concerned about whether she was hurt, and this little guy used to tell him in detail about everything that happened at school. Lately, she rarely mentioned things, even something as significant as encountering bad guys, which made him feel a bit uneasy.

Habit is truly a terrifying thing.

If someone dared to chatter on about daily life to him every day before, Yan Yan would have kicked them out long ago.

Yun Qiluo lowered her eyelashes softly and said, "You’re always busy, and I didn’t know how to talk about it..."

She didn’t even dare to mention that those bad guys were after her.

Firstly, she felt she could handle it by herself and didn’t think it was a problem at all.

Secondly, she was afraid he would overthink and get distracted. She knew this was a critical time for his company, or he wouldn’t be coming home so late every day.

Hearing the grievance in the young girl’s tone, any displeasure in Yan Yan’s heart instantly dissipated, leaving only a touch of pain.

He lowered his phoenix eyes, his voice uncharacteristically gentle: "It’ll be over soon. When it’s done, I’ll take you skiing, okay?"

Upon hearing about skiing, Yun Qiluo’s spirits lifted: "Beautiful woman, you have to keep your word!"

"Okay."

Yan Yan continued his busy days of leaving early and returning late, even going out on a business trip that same night and not coming back all night.

Yun Qiluo tossed and turned on the bed for a long time before falling asleep.

The next day at noon, Chu Yibai was once again fully geared up to go out with her for lunch.

He was wrapped up tightly, wearing a mask and a hat. He didn’t wear sunglasses, fearing it would be too conspicuous and attract attention.
