You're going home with him?

After a full day of fun.

Qin Feng flopped straight onto the sofa.

The two beauties ignored him and started chatting about clothes, handbags, and Pokémon.

Qin Feng opened a short-video app.

Over the past few days.

Pokémon had completely taken over all the major short-video platforms.

Seven of the top ten trending topics were about Pokémon.

One of them reported that the relevant departments of the Official Authorities had finished being established.

They would soon begin rolling out Pokémon certification.

Another piece of news concerned events abroad.

Eagle Country had announced that morning that it officially recognized Pokémon as legal.

It would formally establish an official department in the days ahead.

All this news pleased Qin Feng.

After all, his efforts had not been wasted.

He opened the short video he had posted two days earlier.

Since plenty of people had already uploaded videos of Pokémon battles.

His video had basically stopped getting any attention.

The next day.

The three returned to Jiangning.

Qin Feng had bought gifts for his parents, so he needed to stop by home.

With her orders to follow, Bai Xiyue naturally had to stay close behind him.

"Where are you two heading?"

Jiang Xiaoyu asked.

It was a perfectly ordinary question.

Yet it made Qin Feng break out in a cold sweat.

"Uh!" Qin Feng faltered.

Bai Xiyue spoke first. "He's going home for a bit, and I'm going with him."

She said this because she did not want to hide it from Jiang Xiaoyu.

If she deliberately kept it secret and Jiang Xiaoyu found out.

Jiang Xiaoyu might get the wrong idea.

And she would feel like a fool who had been played.

Qin Feng was scared for one simple reason.

There was nothing going on between him and Bai Xiyue in the first place.

If someone misunderstood, it would be like getting mud on his pants.

No one would believe it was not shit.

"You're going home with him?"

Jiang Xiaoyu sounded distinctly surprised at her words.

Her expression also betrayed a subtle hint of something else.

After all, in their social circles, going to a guy's home seemed to imply a certain kind of relationship.

"Yes. It's for work, so I have to stay by his side at all times."

Bai Xiyue's explanation only left Jiang Xiaoyu more confused.

What kind of job required them to be together twenty-four hours a day?

Could they be...

For some reason, an uncomfortable feeling suddenly welled up inside Jiang Xiaoyu.

Then she inwardly scolded herself. They have a working relationship. What does that have to do with me?

"Oh." Jiang Xiaoyu said little else.

But an astute professional like Bai Xiyue could naturally hear the odd note in her voice.

"Xiaoyu, why don't you come with us?" Bai Xiyue suddenly suggested.

At those words, Qin Feng nearly sprang out of his chair.

Come with us, my ass!

I still haven't cleared up what happened last time! If Jiang Xiaoyu comes today too, how am I supposed to explain it?

If she spreads this around campus tomorrow, won't my reputation be ruined?

No, I have to stop her!

Qin Feng mentally scrambled for a way to defuse this crisis.

"I'll pass. I don't have any reason to go, and you two have work to do. I won't tag along."

Hearing Jiang Xiaoyu's answer, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Considerate girls really are the cutest!

Then he added:

"Xiaoyu, don't you have a course for your major today? Your grades are so good, you definitely can't afford to miss it. You're not like me. My grades are what they are, so it doesn't really matter whether I go to class!"

Jiang Xiaoyu nodded.

But then!

Bai Xiyue wrapped both hands around Jiang Xiaoyu's arm. "Xiaoyu, please come with me. I have no choice but to go-the company assigned me this job. It's awkward going alone, and having you there would help ease the embarrassment. Pretty please?"

ヾ(Ő‿Ő!)

Qin Feng was dumbstruck!

He suddenly felt as though his teammate had stabbed him in the back!

What the fuck? You sneaky little bastard!

Not becoming an actress would be a complete waste of your talent!

From what Qin Feng knew of Bai Xiyue, if she wanted Jiang Xiaoyu to come, there was no way Jiang Xiaoyu would escape.

But what the fuck am I supposed to do?

Call Mom and Dad ahead of time?

But what would I even say?

I'm screwed. I'm so screwed!

A little over ten minutes later, the Bugatti arrived at Yangming Garden again.

Since it was noon.

There were hardly any people at the entrance to the residential complex.

After getting out of the car, Qin Feng hurriedly ushered the two women inside.

His parents were not home yet.

Qin Feng immediately went downstairs, took out his phone, and called Qin Zhengjun.

"Hey, Dad!"

"There's something I need to tell you."

"Right, Bai Xiyue, who came over the other day, isn't actually my girlfriend. She only said that to help Mom out of an awkward situation."

"My classmate is here today. Whatever you do, don't say Bai Xiyue is my girlfriend, or it'll cause a misunderstanding."

"We slept together, but we didn't do anything!"

"You have to believe me, whether you like it or not! Remember to tell Mom for me."

After hanging up, Qin Feng let out a relieved breath.

When he returned home, Bai Xiyue smiled at him.

"Boss Qin, what did you rush outside for?"

Qin Feng glared at Bai Xiyue and whispered, "You have the nerve to ask?"

"This is all your fault!"

Bai Xiyue said, "We're not actually a couple. Are you really that afraid of Jiang Xiaoyu finding out?"

Qin Feng glanced toward the bathroom. "Of course I am! She's in my class! If word gets out, won't you two completely destroy my chances with other girls?"

At Qin Feng's answer, Bai Xiyue gave a faint smile and said nothing.

But a barely perceptible trace of disappointment slipped into her expression and eyes.

Half an hour later, Zheng Yujie and her husband hurried home carrying bags of all sizes.

"What exactly is that boy up to?" Zheng Yujie asked, looking troubled.

Qin Zhengjun furrowed his brow. "I don't know. Since that's what he told us, let's play along for now and ask him properly later."

As they spoke, they arrived at their front door.

When the door opened, Jiang Xiaoyu and Bai Xiyue immediately rose from their chairs.

"Hello, Auntie! Hello, Uncle!"

Then they thoughtfully took the bags from them.

At the sight of the two beauties in her home, Zheng Yujie's face immediately lit up with a smile.

"Hello, hello! You must be starving. Uncle and I bought groceries at the market. We'll get started on lunch right away!"

Looking at the equally pretty Jiang Xiaoyu, Zheng Yujie began wondering.

Is that boy two-timing them?

Or is he up to something else?

If he really dares do that, I'll never let him off!

After all, Bai Xiyue had left an excellent impression on her, and she genuinely liked and approved of her.

If her son really dared do something like that, she would be perfectly capable of crying, making a scene, and even threatening to jump into a river.

The couple went into the kitchen and got to work.

In the living room, the three exchanged looks.

"Why are you two staring at me?" Qin Feng asked.

"Aren't you going to help?" Bai Xiyue asked.

"Why should I?" Qin Feng said. "You go, or send a few of your family's housekeepers over."

Bai Xiyue had been born with a silver spoon in her mouth. With servants and a butler at home, she had never needed to do such things.

But then!

Jiang Xiaoyu stood up and said with a smile, "I'll go. I know how to cook!"

Then she walked into the kitchen under their astonished gazes.

"Auntie, Uncle, is there anything I can help with?"

Jiang Xiaoyu asked sweetly and considerately.

Zheng Yujie and her husband quickly replied:

"No, no! You're our guest. How could we put you to work? Go chat in the living room. It'll be ready soon!"
