Yan Yan, looking relaxed, said: "I’m not lying to you. Next week doesn’t count as work. I’ll take you there, and then you can go wherever you want to shop. When you’re on a business trip, you don’t have that kind of freedom."

Yun Qiqi looked at him suspiciously, "Really?"

"Yeah, and I’ll cover the food and accommodation. I’ll have Secretary Qin book the hotel and ticket for you. We’ll be on the same flight, and once there, you can go anywhere you like."

With Yan Yan’s assurance, Yun Qiqi felt at ease.

"Then it’s settled," she continued to ask, "How long will you be gone?"

Yan Yan glanced at her and said, "A week."

Yun Qiqi nodded, "That’s about the same as me. We can come back together."

"Yeah, the night before departure, you should just stay over at my place."

Yun Qiqi remembered the events from her previous stay at his place and immediately snorted, "I’ll wait for you at the airport."

She wouldn’t fall for his tricks!

Unexpectedly, as soon as she said that, Yan Yan looked at her with a peculiar expression and then lazily spoke, "I’m not taking a commercial flight."

"What?"

He casually said, "We’re going by private jet. You pack your things and come to my place, and we can leave in the morning."

Yun Qiqi was shocked. Do rich people really play like this???

Preparing an airplane for a business trip!

Seeing her reluctance, Yan Yan continued to persuade her, "It’s more comfortable to sleep on the plane, plus there’s food. Commercial flights aren’t comfortable."

"...Alright."

What else could she say?

Ji Ruofeng did make it to the final competition, and when the tickets arrived, Song Shijia kissed them several times out of sheer excitement like a happy fool. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Though Yun Qiqi appeared calm, the corners of her lips lifted slightly, clearly excited about the trip.

No one expected Ji Ruofeng to look so silly, yet be so good at gaming.

The two started requesting leave from their teacher, then prepared the things they needed for the trip.

Meanwhile, in a domestic film production’s crew, Chu Yibai received word from the Director that they would have a two-day break.

He couldn’t contain his excitement, even his usual cold demeanor softened with a smile.

His assistant saw this expression and instantly knew he’d be thinking of that little streamer.

Unsure enough, Chu Yibai’s next words were, "I finally have time to hang out with Luo Luo. Hurry, hand me my phone!"

The assistant, speechless, handed over the phone.

Seeing him happily typing away, the assistant knew he had been waiting days to meet that girl.

After hesitating, he sighed, thinking it was fine as long as their brother was happy.

As long as the girl was single, there was no issue.

Besides, he wasn’t some rookie idol needing a famous girlfriend to create scandals, nor did he need to court the Director’s daughter for resources.

His career was stable now, finding someone wasn’t a big deal.

Chu Yibai quickly messaged Yun Qiqi, inviting her to dinner.

But shortly after, she replied: "I might not be able to go with you, Little White, I’m leaving for Country F the day after tomorrow."

Reading this, Chu Yibai’s excitement diminished quite a bit.

Still, he didn’t give up easily and asked: "What happened? Why are you suddenly going to Country F?"

Yun Qiqi: "Ji Ruofeng has a competition. Shijia and I are going to watch."

Chu Yibai was somewhat relieved. Since he heard from Ji Ruofeng about her getting close to Yan Yan during gaming, he’d been uneasy hearing about Luo Luo being around Yan Yan.

Even though he knew Yan Yan found her first and their familiarity was normal.

Yet, he couldn’t help feeling a little troubled.
