Upon hearing this, Gu Qiyang's smile on his face stiffened and then he chuckled bitterly.
"Jingchuan, you are misunderstanding me. My intentions are pure and good."
Pei Jingchuan shook his head, a hint of coldness hidden deep in his eyes.
"I'm afraid I cannot join you, as I have plans with Yuzhu this afternoon."
At the mention of Jiang Yuzhu's name, Ye Qingning quickly understood and, citing a busy schedule, politely declined Gu Qiyang's invitation.
"I have other matters to attend to this afternoon, so I'll pass. Qiyang, please enjoy your single life."
On the other side."
Pei Yanqing and Men Ling arrived at a quaint little restaurant and settled down by the window.
The sunshine permeated the glass windows and cast elongating shadows of the two.
Pei Yanqing's expression remained the same, his eyes filled with happiness as he watched the woman in front of him.
"Men Ling, take a look and order whatever you'd like."
