Luo Yingbai said: “To make me believe him.”
He explained to Wei Shou: “You saw our WeChat conversation earlier. Actually, Cheng Yin didn’t come here to find Luo Yuanfan – he doesn’t even know Luo Yuanfan is here. He came because after I didn’t reply to many of his messages and then suddenly replied briefly, he felt something was off and came to probe.”
This is true. Cheng Yin had seen Xia Xianning before, so he naturally couldn’t show his face this time. However, Luo Yingbai felt that Xia Xianning seemed to be in a bad mood, so he quickly explained: “I’m not just here to play. I want to see what his purpose is and probe a bit.”
Xia Xianning said coldly: “If it’s not for money, then it’s for someone. It’s easy to guess without probing.”
Luo Yingbai thought for a moment before understanding Xia Xianning’s meaning, and laughed: “You’re overthinking it. When you like someone, your gaze should be different. Cheng Yin’s acting is good, but there’s only calculation in his eyes, no emotion. He’s definitely planning something else.”
Xia Xianning raised an eyebrow: “You seem to know quite a bit.”
Luo Yingbai modestly said: “Not really.”
I can ask my senior brother for advice if needed in the future.”
After saying this, he noticed Xia Xianning’s slightly softened expression darkening again. This guy had been moody lately, which was quite troublesome, but he couldn’t intimidate Luo Yingbai.
Luo Yingbai reached out and pulled Xia Xianning’s cheek: “Come on, why are you always looking so serious? Life is beautiful, smile!”
Xia Xianning pushed him away, but Luo Yingbai immediately stuck close again, pushing his shoulder: “Smile, smile! Don’t look so gloomy. Aren’t you happy to see me? I’m always happy to see you…”
Xia Xianning was helpless and, despite trying to maintain his serious expression, the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted. He said helplessly: “Alright, stop shaking me. I’m already smiling.”
Luo Yingbai leaned in to check, satisfied: “That’s more like it. Okay, it’s so late now, go rest. Look at you, dawdling and delaying my sleep time.”
