"No. Pass the phone to Ling Bai," Yu Chen instructed.

At this, the secretary handed the phone to Ling Bai.

Ling Bai took it and said gently, "Brother Chen."

Yu Chen calmly replied, "Xiao Bai, don't come to my company in the future. If you need help, ask your brother for his opinion first. If he thinks it's necessary, we'll help you. Otherwise, we won't. I still have work to do so you can contact your brother in the future."

Ling Bai heard the busy tone and stared at the phone with a dazed expression. He didn't get a word in, so why was he hung up on? Telling him to contact Ling Qing, did Yu Chen go crazy?

He recalled his meeting with Ling Qing and his entire person became filled with resistance. He didn't even want to remember.

So, he prompted the secretary to call Yu Chen again.

"Mr. Yu is in a meeting, please wait," the secretary said.

Ling Bai wondered, "Who is he talking to?"

"I don't know," the secretary answered.

Ling Bai frowned, feeling displeased. He had come to find Yu Chen yesterday but was informed that he wasn't there. Then he called Yu Chen, but there was no answer. Sent a WeChat message, yet there was still no answer. He had even asked Yu Chen when he'd return, but Yu Chen ignored him.

This shouldn't be the case. Yu Chen obviously cares a lot about him. Every time something happens, Yu Chen was there for him. Even if they had a disagreement, Yu Chen would never deign to ignore him. How come this time Yu Chen was so heartless?!

Ling Bai couldn't help but let his mind run wild. Could it be that Ling Qing told him something?

That shouldn't be the case, if Ling Qing had something against him, he should have said it long ago. Why wouldn't he have said it before?

But what else could it be?

Feeling anxious and apprehensive, Ling Bai couldn't help but dial Ling Qing. Nonetheless, the call did not go through. Instead, he heard the female operator's voice.

"Sorry, the number you are dialing is currently busy. Please try again later. Sorry..."

Ling Bai couldn't help but speculate as he listened to the prompt. Could it be, he was talking to Yu Chen? What were they talking about?

Upset, he hung up the phone and tried to call Yu Chen again.

Yu Chen was indeed talking to Ling Qing. In fact, he was talking to Ling Qing about Ling Bai.

"So you didn't meet him but directed him to me?" Ling Qing asked.

"Yes," Yu Chen answered. "I know you care about our previous relationship so you can handle all his affairs in the future. I won't intervene and you can do what you wish."

Ling Qing had no disagreements with this, "Well, you don't have to refuse him so earnestly. To be honest, I'm a little curious about what he has to say to you. Why don't you meet him first?"

Yu Chen: ...

Yu Chen thought, 'not this again'! Just like last time, when he was told to go see Ling Bai, what was the result?

When he returned, he was scolded!

Yu Chen was weary and wasn't able to be fooled again.

"I refuse."

"Just go talk to him and see what he wants? Maybe it's something important?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? Haven't you heard of the boy who cried wolf? Once bitten, twice shy. To do it again, wouldn't I be stupid?"
