Chapter 78

Chapter 78

Lu Yao and Jiang Bai were unaware of the small incident that occurred after they left. They didn't care about others' opinions or rumors; even if it became public knowledge, they wouldn't be concerned with what people said.

As Jiang Bai exited the jewelry store, his eyes were full of joy, indicating that he was in a very good mood. Lu Yao felt that suggesting to customize couple rings was indeed the right decision.

Lu Yao asked, "Where to next?"

They had previously agreed to each plan one part of their date.

Knowing Lu Yao's secret sweet tooth, Jiang Bai's eyes sparkled with amusement. "Would you like to go to the 'Qike' dessert shop on the third floor? I checked it out beforehand. Although it's expensive, the quality is excellent."

Knowing Jiang Bai made this suggestion specifically for him, Lu Yao's lips curved slightly. "Sure, let's go."

They each ordered a signature red velvet cheesecake from the store.

The cake arrived quickly. The dark red velvet layers and creamy white cheese sauce mingled, emitting a sweet and tempting aroma.

Seeing the satisfied expression on Lu Yao's face, Jiang Bai knew he had chosen the right place.

Jiang Bai, holding a spoon, looked at Lu Yao and asked, "How does your cake taste? What flavor is it?"

A waiter happened to pass by with a tray. Hearing Jiang Bai's clear voice, he glanced at their table and saw both cakes were of the same flavor. He wondered why Jiang Bai was asking, as the quality should be consistent for both cakes.

Lu Yao chuckled softly and took a small bite of his cake, then offered a spoonful to Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai, trying to suppress his smile, couldn't help but grin at Lu Yao's gesture.

After tasting the cake Lu Yao had offered, Jiang Bai's eyes lit up with undisguised delight. "It's better than mine."

Lu Yao seemed charmed by Jiang Bai's reaction. His fingers on the table curled slightly, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

After finishing their dessert, Lu Yao suggested taking a walk outside since there was a tranquil and beautiful park nearby.

They left the shopping mall, and the warm sunlight bathed the pedestrians outside.

Noticing Lu Yao glancing at a mango smoothie in someone's hand and recalling a famous milk tea shop nearby, Jiang Bai said, "Would you mind waiting for me in the park? I want to get something."

Lu Yao, puzzled, asked, "Can't I go with you?"

Jiang Bai smiled and said, "It's a secret. I'll be back soon. Just wait for me in the park."

Lu Yao, with a hint of reluctance, agreed. "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Sitting on a bench in the park, Lu Yao was thinking about when Jiang Bai would return when suddenly the blue circular system, which had been silent for a long time, activated again.

[System: Lu Yao, I've accumulated enough points to contact the main system to capture the fugitive system on Xia Yue! From now on, Xia Yue won't be able to use that system for wrongdoing.]

[Lu Yao: Then hurry up and use your points to contact your main system.]

Lu Yao felt a wave of relief at the thought of finally eliminating the threat from Xia Yue's system.

Eager to see Jiang Bai, Lu Yao stood up and started walking toward the park's entrance since Jiang Bai was taking longer than expected.

As he approached the park's entrance, Lu Yao saw a small boy standing in the middle of the crosswalk, crying loudly.
