The bar lobby.
After Mu Xiaoxiao left, Yin Shaojie wasn’t in the mood to play anymore. He sat out the next round, planning to rejoin the game and play with her once she came back.
However, Mu Xiaoxiao still hadn’t come back after more than ten minutes. He frowned and gestured to Han Qiqing.
Han Qiqing leaned towards him and asked what the matter was.
Yin Shaojie said to her, “Go to the toilet and check on Xiaoxiao. She still isn’t coming out.”
Han Qiqing had originally wanted to tell him that he was overreacting, for it was normal for girls to take more time in the washroom. However, under the forceful gaze of the young master, she could only comply embarrassedly and walked over.
Yin Shaojie was contemplating if he should follow her when his phone rang.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was An Zhixin. He frowned reflexively.
However, he still took the call.
It was a mystery as to what An Zhixin told him, but he made a noise of acknowledgment before ending the call. He then glanced in the direction of the washroom and cast a look at Ye Sijue.
Ye Sijue seemed to know what his gaze meant and smiled at him as he said, “Got it. I’ll help you take note if they come back.”
Yin Shaojie nodded in thanks before telling the crowd, “I’m going out for a while.”
He then exited the bar.
It hadn’t been long after Yin Shaojie left when Han Qiqing and Mu Xiaoxiao returned to the lobby.
“Your Great Master Yin wanted to look for you when you were gone for only a few minutes. I think he really wants to tie you to him so that you can’t leave his side for even a mere second.”
Han Qiqing whispered by Mu Xiaoxiao’s ear, teasing her.
Before they sat down, Mu Xiaoxiao already realized the absence of Yin Shaojie. She looked around, trying to find him.
Han Qiqing immediately jabbed Song Shijun, who was beside her. “Where’s Yin Shaojie? Where did he go?” she asked.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Song Shijun at well.
Song Shijun was engaged in a game of devil’s bones with some other people and was very engrossed in it. He hadn’t noticed anything else, so he said vaguely, “He.. seemed to have answered a call just now and went out.”
A rich young master beside them saw the expression on Mu Xiaoxiao’s face and said deliberately, “I think it was a girl who called him. Mu Xiaoxiao, aren’t you afraid that our Young Master Jie will be snatched away by another woman?”
Han Qiqing asked, “Is it true? Was it really a girl who called?”
She pushed Song Shijun forcefully, stopping him from playing. “Song Shijun, is it true or not! Hurry up and tell us the truth!” she interrogated.
Song Shijun didn’t know of course, and he looked confused. He then seemed to recall something and pointed in the direction of Ye Sijue and said, “Before Young Master Jie left, he seemed to tell Ye Sijue something, so he should know. You should ask him instead.”
Ye Sijue smiled jokingly and looked at Mu Xiaoxiao as he replied, “I don’t know if it was a girl, but he went out immediately after answering that call.”
Han Qiqing suddenly clapped her hands together and pointed at the young master from earlier. “Oh wait! How could you have heard whether the caller was a boy or girl? So you all must be lying, right?” she said.
That person smiled but said nothing, spreading his hands out.
Just then, Mu Xiaoxiao’s phone vibrated. She took it out to check the caller ID and was dazed.
Lu Yichen?
She hurriedly covered the screen and said to Han Qiqing, “I’m going out to take a call.”
Han Qiqing thought that she was using this as an excuse to look for Yin Shaojie. “These people love to talk nonsense, so don’t believe them. If not, I can follow you to look for him too,” she said.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled as she said, “I didn’t believe them; I’m not going to look for Yin Shaojie, so you don’t have to accompany me.”
