When Bai Tingxin saw Qin Lianyi's twinkling eyes, his mood inexplicably turned sour.
When the car drove back to Shen City, it arrived at Yi residence first. Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran got out of the car while Bai Tingxin went to the driver’s seat.
"See you next time, Yiran," said Qin Lianyi as she bid Ling Yiran goodbye.
"Sure," replied Ling Yiran. "Thank you for today, and be careful on your way back!" With that, she and Yi Jinli walked through the large iron gates of Yi residence.
Qin Lianyi kept her eyes fixed on Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran who were now behind the iron gates. Then, she heard Bai Tingxin's impatient voice. "Haven't you seen enough?"
"I'm just looking, that's all," muttered Qin Lianyi. When she met Yi Jinli at Yiran's rental house previously, although she did not perceive him as a hobo, she never thought of him as the local tyrant of Shen City!
Then, a pair of hands grabbed Qin Lianyi's face. Her face was turned to face his. "Didn't you say you liked looking at my face the other day? Are you now interested in Yi Jinli?"
Qin Lianyi almost choked. What was he saying? Why did he think that she was interested in Yi Jinli?
She was just marveling at the fact that Yiran actually got together with Yi Jinli.
However, considering her relationship with Bai Tingxin now, he was now her ‘creditor’. She dared not refute and anger him.
Therefore, Qin Lianyi smiled rather lamely and said, "What? Why would I be interested in Yi Jinli? I was just... blessing Yiran in my heart."
"Really?" His face closed in on her as if trying to see what she was really thinking.
Bai Tingxin glared at Qin Lianyi. She had repeated the rules he told her at first, but hearing it from her made him feel uncomfortable.
Besides, she would not fall in love with anyone else before falling in love with him... Did that mean that after falling in love with him, she would fall in love with someone else?
His heart ached at the thought.
"Don't you dare fall in love with someone else, Qin Lianyi,” he said as he glared at her.
She instinctively tried to retort, but when she met his menacing gaze, she touched her nose and shut her mouth.
