In the morning, Bai Chen woke up early to help his parents set up the Chinese steamed bun shop. Li Lin offered to help as well.
 His parents were really pleased to see Li Lin, their soon-to-be daughter-in-law, helping enthusiastically.
 After finishing the preparations for the shop, they sat down to eat, before Bai Chen brought Li Lin up to his bedroom.
 He sat on the bed with Li Lin by his side. Her face was full of questions since she saw that Bai Chen had been smiling all morning.
 “What are you smiling at?” she could not help but ask.
 “Have a guess.” Bai Chen did not answer, asking her a question instead.
 Li Lin lowered her head to think, but even after a short time, she could not figure things out. She then turned to Bai Chen and answered him. “I don’t know.”
 “Don’t tell me you’ve already forgotten our bet from last night?” Bai Chen said with a smile. Regarding the bet he made with Li Lin, he had definitely won.
 “Hmmph!” Li Lin pouted. Her pretty face showed discontent. “So, you were smiling all morning because you think you’ve already beaten me?”
 It was obvious that she was very sharp. Bai Chen had only just mentioned last night’s bet, but she had already connected it to the fact that he had been smiling all morning.
 “You are beaten,” Bai Chen said confidently.
 Li Lin frowned at him. “Oh, am I?”
 “Yes.” Bai Chen smiled happily. “You must let me kiss you right now.”
 “You shameless!” Li Lin’s face turned completely red. She stared at him, feeling a little annoyed.
 “You don’t believe me?”
 “Why should I? Care to show me some proof?”
 Li Lin calmed her anger whilst asking for evidence. “If you don’t have any proof, then you’ll be my slave for six months. You’ve not forgotten that, right?”
 Bai Chen smiled brightly. “I definitely have proof, and I did not forget that either. You have to honour the bet, okay?”
 “Where is it then?” Li Lin felt indescribably irritated by his confidence. But in her heart, she also felt relaxed and happy.
 She thought that spending time with him reduced her worries about the engagement more and more until they dissipated.
 “Turn on your phone,” he said.
 “Why should I do that?” Li Lin asked. She did not turn it on as he said because she did not want to receive calls from her parents.
 Li Lin knew they were going to call. If Bai Chen had not asked her to show him Xi Dong’s picture, she would not have turned it on at all.
 “Trust me. You will see who the real winner of this bet is.” Bai Chen was smiling, speaking smoothly.
 Even though he felt partially guilty in his heart that a 30-year-old uncle such as himself had made a silly bet like this with Li Lin again, he also thought that it could not be helped.
 She was cute, and he had already fallen for her. It was obvious that the result was the same as the first time they’d made a bet. The only difference was that he liked her already.
 “Sure.” Li Lin hesitated for a bit before agreeing to it. She pulled out her phone and turned it on. The moment she turned her phone on, a large number of messages arrived instantly.
 Li Lin tapped on them and looked at each one. All of them were messages that informed her of missed calls when her phone had been off.
ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶 There were two messages from her parents, another two from her friends.
 “One hundred and forty-three missed calls?!?” Li Lin’s big, round eyes widened when she saw that her father had called her 143 times.
 ‘Why would dad call me so many times? I hope it’s not to rush me into getting engaged to Xi Dong,’ she thought before preparing herself to look at the message from her mother.
 But before she was able to check, her phone rang with an incoming call. Somebody was calling her.
 “Dad...” Li Lin looked at the name that appeared on the screen. She did not feel like answering. She was scared that her dad was calling to tell her to come home. But in the end, she picked up.
 “Little Lin, where are you?” Li Cong Tian asked with an impatient voice as soon as his daughter picked up.
 “I won’t tell you!” Li Lin shouted back in answer.
𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢 “Little Lin, I’m sorry. Please come home. I won’t have you get engaged to that Xi Dong bastard anymore. I just learned that he’s such scum!” Li Cong Tian spoke quickly again, fearing that his daughter would hang up.
 Li Yu was probably beside Li Cong Tian, for she spoke as well. “Little Lin, please come home. From now on, we won’t force you to marry anyone anymore. And in the future, no matter who you love, we will support you.”
 “Yes, yes, I swear.”
 Li Lin was so stunned, she fell silent. She was speechless for a long while, as she’d never expected to hear those words from her parents.
 She originally thought they were calling her to come back and to force her to get engaged to Xi Dong. But it seemed like whatever she had been thinking was off target.
 “Are you both serious?” Li Lin finally asked.
 “I swear that what I said is true.”
 “Me, too, so please hurry home.”
 Both Li Cong Tian and Li Yu spoke. They both felt extremely guilty that they had almost pushed their own daughter off a cliff by marrying her off to Xi Dong.
 “I understand. I’ll hurry home!”
 Li Lin was beyond excited now and very happy indeed.
 After hanging up, she even smiled. But she stopped smiling abruptly when she realized that Bai Chen was right.... she had lost the bet!
 “I’ve beaten you,” Bai Chen said with a smile whilst looking at Li Lin’s enchanting lips.
 Li Lin’s cheeks blushed uncontrollably. She turned to speak, but her voice was as quiet as a mouse.
 “A-are you really going to do it?”
