Being questioned in that manner by Bai Yaoyao, Yun Bilu grew even more embarra.s.sed. She struck herself hard on the thigh, as though that one hit would remove the flush from her face. "Elder Sister Yaoyao, it's not like that."
Bai Yaoyao pointed at Yun Bilu's lips and said, "Look at that. It's already swelling, but you're still denying it. It must have been intense. Don't worry, I won't make fun of you."
When Yun Bilu ran to the second-floor bedroom, Bai Yaoyao started laughing loudly before following her to the bedroom.
Although Yun Bilu still felt embarra.s.sed, hearing Elder Sister Yaoyao's laughter lightened her mood.
When she returned to the bedroom, Yun Bilu thumped her chest a few times with her fists to try to get her pounding heart to calm down, but it continued pounding in a crazy beat, as though it was going to jump out of her chest.
After sitting on the bed for a long while, she heard the calls for her to eat. She rubbed her head and checked herself over the mirror before going down, as though nothing had happened.
But the moment she saw Huang Yize, who was sitting at the table, she couldn't help but think about what happened earlier. Her face started to flush uncontrollably once again.
Bai Yaoyao waved Yun Bilu over. "Why are you just standing there? Sit down and eat."
Yun Bilu took a deep breath. It was lucky that Elder Sister Yaoyao was here so it wouldn't be as awkward.
While they were eating, Huang Yize said to Bai Yaoyao, "Your first date is a professor who had just returned from overseas. The appointment is at ten-thirty in the morning, and you'll be meeting him at Gujing Restaurant. The restaurant has an elegant and vintage ambiance, so I think both of you would appreciate it."
Hearing Huang Yize's words, Yun Bilu stood up excitedly and exclaimed, "You're the best!" After she spoke, she grinned and placed some food into his bowl.
Huang Yize smiled in resignation but looked seriously at Bai Yaoyao.
Bai Yaoyao smiled at Huang Yize. "Many thanks." This man was young enough to be her younger brother, but every time he spoke, he had such a domineering aura. It was so overwhelming that she couldn't just respond casually.
She knew that whatever Huang Yize did was for Yun Bilu. Bilu was such a silly girl. Now that she had a person who doted so much on her, Bai Yaoyao could finally let go of her worries for Bilu as an elder sister.
"You're welcome. Bilu wishes that you will be able to walk out from your past relations.h.i.+p. We know that you don't wish to remain in Country E, so these people are not from here. You will be able to leave and go to other countries."
Yun Bilu quickly scooped a bowl of soup for Huang Yize. "Huang Yize, you've planned everything perfectly. That's great to hear."
The vein on Huang Yize's forehead twitched as he replied resignedly, "You just focus on your food and eat well, alright? I'm not talking to you." This girl's reaction triggered a strange emotion within him. It made it seem as though he was introducing these men to her, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed. It was better to get her to be quiet.
Yun Bilu shrank back and cupped her face with her hands. "Okay, go on. I'll eat."
After eating, Yun Bilu immediately asked Huang Yize to take her outside without saying why.
Only after they left the villa did Yun Bilu ask, "Take me to the nearest department store. I want to buy dresses, accessories, and high heels." She wanted to dress up Elder Sister Yaoyao beautifully, and it was a good thing that she knew the latter's dress and shoe sizes.
Looking at how excited she was, Huang Yize couldn't bear to refuse her, so he could only drive her to the departmental store.
Once they arrived at the departmental store, Yun Bilu got off the car and asked Huang Yize to wait for her at the entrance before leaving in a rush.
After a long while, Yun Bilu still hadn't returned, so Huang Yize got off the car to find her. When he entered the store, he saw her holding a dress and haggling for it.
Huang Yize shook his head and walked over, asking the saleslady to use his card for payment.
Yun Bilu said in a dissatisfied voice, "Hey, Huang Yize, why are you here? I'm negotiating the price of this dress with the saleslady. Why did you just pa.s.s your card to them?"
