At the side, Ling Han had a meaningful smile on his face.
"I'm afraid she's going to help us decorate the new house."
"Huh?" Ye Huanyan turned around. "What do you mean?"
Ling Han casually pointed at two pieces of furniture and said, "Look, which one of these things isn't according to the layout of our house?"
"Are you talking about Xiao Yue?"
Ye Huanyan finally caught on. She said in surprise, "Are you saying that Xiao Yue ran around signing a bunch of orders just for us?"
Ling Han nodded slightly with an indifferent expression on his face.
"The furniture in the house has just been changed. I'll tell her."
Before Ye Huanyan could get up, Ling Han put his arm around her. "Let her do what she wants. It's not easy to find a place to rest. Do you want to keep following her around?"
"But …"
"There's nothing wrong with changing the furniture," he said gently. Ye Huanyan was still a little hesitant, but she couldn't dissuade Ling Han, so she had no choice but to sit down. However, when she saw Ji Xiaoyue shouting, "I want this and that too!", she couldn't help but remind her.
"Didn't you just order a bed? Where are you going to put another one?"
Ji Xiaoyue turned around with a smile. "The guest room. It'll be more convenient for me to stay there."
Even the salesperson was speechless.
Ji Xiaoyue caused a huge commotion in the furniture store. In the end, even the manager came out to check the goods and arrange the transportation. The only people who had the most time were Ye Huanyan and Ling Han.
Ling Han naturally knew what Ji Xiaoyue was trying to do.
She was just using this opportunity to test her sincerity towards Ye Huanyan. This method was simple and crude, and to Ling Han, it wasn't a big deal. But seeing that she was Ye Huanyan's best friend, he let her feel at ease and let her do as she pleased.
During lunch, Ye Huanyan went to the bathroom, leaving only Ji Xiaoyue and Ling Han at the table.
Ji Xiaoyue stared at Ling Han rudely. "I spent so much of your money today. Don't you feel bad?"
Ling Han looked up and said, "You're spending Yan Yan's money."
Ji Xiaoyue was at a loss for words.
It wasn't easy for anyone to win against Ling Han in a battle of words.
"Don't think that you can make me believe that you're sincere to Yan Yan just because you're generous. You definitely don't have good intentions. A leopard can't change its spots …"
"Then why are you still sitting here and eating with me?"
"I'm supervising you." Ji Xiaoyue reached out her right hand and pointed her index finger and middle finger at her own eyes, then at Ling Han. With a warning look on her face, she said, "I just want to tell you that although Yan Yan doesn't have a family, I'm considered part of her family. If you dare to bully Yan Yan again, I'll …"
"What will you do?"
Ji Xiaoyue was in a dilemma. She was far from Ling Han's weight. What should she say?
She rolled her eyes and said fiercely, "I can guarantee that you'll never see Yan Yan again in this lifetime!"
This kind of oath sounded like a baseless threat, but Ling Han felt his heart skip a beat and inexplicably tightened.
Ye Huanyan came out of the restroom and saw Ji Xiaoyue's hostile expression. She knew that she was probably looking for trouble again. She quickly sat back in her seat and secretly poked Ji Xiaoyue. She lowered her voice and said, "That's enough. If you leave after threatening him, I'll be so embarrassed."
Ji Xiaoyue pursed her lips. "Forget your friends when you're in love."
After saying this, she put down her chopsticks and said, "Alright, since you don't welcome me, I won't be a hindrance here. I'll leave first."
"Huh?" Ye Huanyan was anxious. "Why are you angry after I said a few words? I was just joking with you. Sit down and eat properly. No one here doesn't welcome you."
"Is that so?" Ji Xiaoyue glanced at Ling Han.
"Do you want dessert?" Ling Han looked at her.
Ji Xiaoyue finally admitted defeat and said frankly, "I really don't want to eat. I only took half a day off. I still have something to do. I have to catch a flight to Los Angeles tonight."
"You're going abroad?"
Ye Huanyan looked surprised. "Why didn't you tell me last night?"
"It's a last-minute job. I just received a notice from the managing editor this morning. I'm going to pick up two sets of clothes and will be back in two days."
After saying this, she had already grabbed her bag and jacket. She smiled and pressed Ye Huanyan's shoulder to make her sit properly in the chair. "I'm quite relieved to see you like this. Be good. I'll bring you a gift when I come back."
Ye Huanyan was a little reluctant to leave. Ling Han stood behind her and took the initiative to ask, "Yan Yan and I can send you back."
"It's okay. The company car is waiting for me in the mall's underground parking lot. I'll go home and pack my luggage before heading to the airport. It'll be troublesome if you follow me."
"Then, have a safe trip."
"Take good care of Yan Yan."
The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding. There seemed to be a secret hidden in their simple conversation. Ye Huanyan was stunned as she watched.
After Ji Xiaoyue left, she sat down and asked suspiciously, "Why did Xiao Yue raise her eyebrows and stare at you just now? What did the two of you talk about when I wasn't around? "
Ling Han looked calm as usual. He picked up some food and placed it in Ye Huanyan's bowl. "Shouldn't you be asking her how she is?"
Ye Huanyan frowned and thought to herself, 'That's true.'
Ye Huanyan heard the vibration of the phone. When she saw that Ling Han had hung up the phone, she asked, "Is it about the company? Why don't you answer it? Xiao Yue has already left. If you have something to do, you can go back first. "
Ling Han hesitated for a moment, then nodded and dialed a number.
The call was from Qiao Mu. While they were shopping, she had already called three or four times. However, out of consideration for Ye Huanyan's reputation in front of Ji Xiaoyue, Ling Han did not answer the call.
The return call was quickly picked up. His voice had returned to its usual tone at work. It was cold, indifferent, and always very serious.
Ye Huanyan was about to pick up food for him when she saw his expression change. "What happened?"
"…"
"Okay, I got it. You guys deal with it first. I'll go back for a meeting."
"…"
After a few words, he hung up the phone. Ye Huanyan hurriedly asked, "What happened? Did something happen at the company? "
"It's said that several of the company's important artists were exposed online. The company's public relations department is in a mess right now. We can't find the source of the media that published the news, so I have to go back for a meeting."
Ling Han did not hide it from Ye Huanyan and straightforwardly told her about the matter.
Ye Huanyan's expression also changed. "Then hurry back. This is not a small matter. It will be bad if there are more news about other artists."
"Then you …"
"Don't worry about me. I can take a taxi back myself."
Ling Han hesitated for a moment. "How about this? You eat here first, and I'll have Qiao Mu take you home."
Seeing that he was still thinking about his safety at a time like this, Ye Huanyan felt warmth in her heart. She nodded gently and stood up to straighten his bow tie before saying softly, "Mhm, okay. Be careful on the road. Don't worry."
