Gu Yue couldn't help laughing. "Baili is adorable."

She's such a candid, beautiful girl. Gu Yue envied and liked her.

Lu Mingjing was clearly surprised by Shen Baili's praise. "What a creative kid."

It was rare for him to offer an opinion.

Meng Xiu wore the baffled expression of an old man staring at his phone. He didn't know what to say.
