Rong Qing also became dumbfounded.

I came to have fun spending money, but you’re telling me that this is a date? (Note: direct translation ‘to discuss feelings’)

“Hold on? Can you repeat?” Rong Qing stared at Gao Jiaxuan.

Are you sure nothing strange just escaped your mouth just now, pal?

Gao Jiaxuan glanced at his phone and suddenly paused.

Lin Ji? Rong Qing and Lin Ji were video calling?

He fell silent.

Speaking logically, as Lin Ji’s boss, shouldn’t he consider his performing artist’s mental state for a second? He just finished taking a walk around. Everyone here came for the Ship King’s daughter. She was an exceptional marriage choice.

What if… what if Rong Qing was here for her as well?

With Gao Jiaxuan falling silent, Rong Qing also fell silent.

Bro, why did you stop talking? What was this supposed to mean? Are you silent because what you said was right or did I just imagine everything?

[You’re attending a drinking party?]

On the phone screen, Lin Ji already changed his clothes and slowly asked.

?

Oh no! He forgot about the wolf pup!

Rong Qing wanted to curse.

F*ck! Gao Jiaxuan is trying to screw me over!

He hastily looked at the screen with an extremely serious expression: “No it’s not… I’m not. It wasn’t me. I only came for tomorrow’s auction event. The drinking party…. Song Xian was the one who wanted to come to this drinking party!” He was struck by a brilliant idea.

That’s right! Song Xian! The perfect person to carry the blame!

“Just look! Look at how pompously he’s dressed today!” Rong Qing turned the camera on Song Xian who was looking dumbly at the wine reception.

Ah! Right! And the watch!

Turning the camera to point at Song Xian’s watch, Rong Qing spoke earnestly: “See that watch? Song Xian asked to borrow it from me! He was afraid his watch wasn’t flashy enough!”

...what do you mean not flashy enough.

Standing to the side, Gao Jiaxuan’s face twisted as he became speechless. He thought for a moment and then lit a candle for Lin Ji.

Lin Ji’s expression gradually got better.

[So it’s like that.]

Rong Qing turned the camera lens back around and nodded his head steadily on purpose: “That’s right. In order to come to this drinking party, he even specifically asked me to make a phone call for him to old man Song. Such commitment.”

Good! Good for me! This lie was perfect! I almost believed it myself! Sure enough, in a dangerous situation, a man’s hidden potential becomes limitless!

I can do it! It’s possible! I’m so amazing!

Lin Ji’s face completely returned to normal.

[That’s great. I hope Mr.Song will have his wish fulfilled.]

That way, Song Xian and Rong Qing will have absolutely no possibility in the future.

Whew! Success!

Rong Qing’s panicking little heart relaxed.

To the side, Gao Jiaxuan silently turned his head, picked up a melon off a fruit tray and took a few bites.
