Xi Zirui shoots Han Yu an unamused look.
He's already going to spend more time with Han Yu than he ever wanted to, he would rather not increase his exposure rate.
There's an easy and simple way to handle Han Yu's constant advances -- and it will probably even win him some good points in Han Chang's ledger.
"I find it hard to believe that your father hasn't mentioned that you're betrothed already," Xi Zirui says, walking up towards Han Yu.
When they're nearly face-to-face, he gives him a pitying look from beneath his curling lashes, reveling in Han Yu's minute intake of breath. "He even warned me off you." He sighs. "I'm afraid our love cannot be."
He turns around from Han Yu, hoping to have made the warning clear.
If Han Yu keeps pestering him, Xi Zirui won't have any problems reporting all of it to his father.
From behind him comes an airy scoff. "Why does gege think I care about what my father wants?"
