Ji Tingyang had been overburdened with work recently, and after busying himself all morning, he had not even taken his lunch break before Lin Xu called him to the mall to pay the bill.
Lin Xu had her own bank card and could easily pay with a swipe. The only reason she would ask him to come over was as an excuse to use him for grunt work.
Knowing this, Ji Tingyang still resigned himself to going, following behind Lin Xu carrying her bags, and complimenting her on how good they looked.
What he hadn't anticipated was running into Wen Li at the mall.
When he saw her with Xiao Yu, he felt a moment of panic, as if the warmth that belonged to him would be snatched away. By the time he regained his composure, he had already approached them, fuming with anger.
It was only when Lin Xu appeared that he came back to his senses.
Upon looking at Xiao Yu again, Ji Tingyang's intense emotions had subsided. Dismissing the thought of embarrassing Xiao Yu on the spot, he left with Lin Xu.
