Pei Jiao came out of the house and happened to hear Ji He tell Wei Yu that Minister Lin would hold a banquet tonight.
"Wei Yu," Pei Jiao shouted at him.
Wei Yu gestured for Ji He to leave first. He turned around and closed the door. "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Pei Jiao smiled and said happily, "I slept very well last night. I woke up before you. I think I heard Ji He say that Minister Lin is holding a banquet to entertain Grandma tonight?"
Wei Yu avoided Pei Jiao's gaze and answered irrelevantly as he walked in. "I'm not going to the laboratory today."
"…"
How could Pei Jiao not tell that he was deliberately avoiding this topic? But why would he avoid it? Didn't she already have Grandma's approval? He had seen it all. Could it be that he wouldn't let her go tonight?
That won't do!
