Chapter 11: 6.2

　　Turning to look at Duan Chi once more, Jing Xi inquired, “Do I have your word that your bracelet won’t ring that day?”

　　Just as before, Duan Chi responded honestly, “I can’t promise anything, but I’ll do my best.”

　　After contemplating for a few seconds, Jing Xi cautioned, “You should stay a good distance away from me on that day.”

　　Duan Chi agreed, “Will do.”

　　With that, the conversation came to an end.

　　After notifying him of the time and venue, Jing Xi left him to acquire an invitation card on his own and logged out from StarNet.

　　Inquisitively, System observed, “To think you actually agreed to meet him.”

　　Yet, Jing Xi merely let out a sound of affirmation perfunctorily.

　　Finding that the sequence of words Jing Xi said made perfect sense, System resumed his monitoring with great gusto.

　　Once he was done with his daily routine, Jing Xi drove off in his sports car ostentatiously. Before long, he arrived at an old mansion.

　　Ever since the mansion was seized after the Zhou family declared bankruptcy, it had changed hands twice all these years.

　　Before Yi Zhou’s grandfather passed away, he purchased the mansion and placed the title deed under Yi Zhou’s name. Only then did he move some of the old stuff belonging to the Zhou family back into the estate.

　　As soon as he opened the door, Jing Xi beckoned System to link up with the AI system in the mansion to see whether it could pull out the footage of the mishap that occurred back then.

　　Without a moment’s delay, System gave it a shot.

　　Over the years, the mansion’s entire AI system had undergone several updates. However, it was fortunate that System could still find and repair data traces even if the AI system had once been overwritten, upgraded, or even uninstalled. After going to great lengths, System finally pulled out the footage and sent it to Jing Xi’s phone.

　　“What do you need this for?”

　　Jing Xi chuckled, “Well, it is certainly of use to me.”

　　Having said that, he went on to explore the entire mansion at his own pace.

　　Through the tour, Jing Xi found that despite its unrivaled tranquil hues, the size of this garden could not be compared to that of his home. After picking several areas that left much to be desired, he got in touch with an interior design firm. Only after the renovation commenced did he leave the vicinity.

　　That night, President Yi returned home merrily, recounting how he ran into Duan Chi at the business dinner. At that time, someone just happened to mention that his son was about to get engaged, and Duan Chi revealed that he would turn up for it.

　　This piece of news came as a complete surprise to both the lover and Yi Jun. “Really? Are you sure it’s not just pleasantries?”

　　“It should be real,” President Yi reassured with a smile, “In fact, he could have simply brushed this aside, but he actually stated that he might attend the event.”

　　With numerous years of experience in the business world under his belt, he conjectured, “In any case, he has subsidiaries here. From what he said today, he may have plans to remain on Howe for an extensive period. Also, what sort of status do the Jin family and our family have? Since we are in-laws, it’s unsurprising that he wants to see it himself.”

　　While lounging on the sofa, Jing Xi promptly threw cold water on his speculation. “I don’t think that wee bit of status the two families have is enough to let him make a trip down personally.”

　　In an instant, the trio gaped at him with wide eyes for a good moment, flabbergasted and speechless.

　　President Yi chided, “What would you know of the ways of the world? Look at that revolting behavior of yours!”

　　After watching from the sidelines for several days, it finally dawned on him that his eldest son might actually want to be a dandy.

　　However, it was a well-known fact that Yi Zhou was his eldest son. Even though he was always concerned about his reputation and paid little attention to Yi Zhou, he never intended for Yi Zhou to actually tread on this path, especially after his father passed away. After all, he did not wish for anyone to regard him as a parent who had not a single clue about how to educate his children.

　　With that in mind, he warned, “Stop horsing around for these two days. After Xiao Jun’s engagement party, I’ll find you something to do.”

　　Waving his hand, Jing Xi declined, “Thanks, but no thanks.”

　　President Yi barked, “That’s not your call to make!”

　　Yet, it all went in one ear and out the other, as Jing Xi was undeterred in wanting things to go his own way.

　　After frolicking around for the next two days, he made plans with the female lead three days before the engagement ceremony. At that juncture, he just happened to receive the second recording.

　　Surprised, System questioned, “Weren’t you planning to make a move on the engagement day itself? Are you worried that this will be too devastating for her to handle?”

　　On that note, it switched gears to its praise mode. “The female lead is tenacious, and only strong opponents can ever bring out her true strength. Even those occurrences in the original storyline can…”

　　“No, it is not due to that,” Jing Xi interrupted, “A young girl should be happy when she attends her engagement party. So why should I stab her in the heart without warning?”

　　During that lapse of time, the female lead was invited to their residence for dinner twice. Hence, Jing Xi had long since been acquainted with her.

　　Jin Yumeng was a bright and beautiful princess who always wore a smile. Through observation, he was sure that she was strong, but that did not mean he should put her through an ordeal at random.

　　That was why it was best for him to warn her in private than to let her face the truth unprepared on the happiest day of her life.

　　With that, he made a rendezvous with her at a cafe.

　　At eight in the evening, Jin Yumeng stepped into the cafe, and her gaze swept rapidly around the room. Only after spotting him did she take a seat with a smile. “You wanted to speak with me, Big Brother?”

　　Jing Xi let his gaze draw to her as he warned, “What I’m about to say may not sound very pleasant.”

　　Upon hearing that, the smile froze on Jin Yumeng’s lips.

　　Immediately right after, Jing Xi interjected, “No, wait. I’ve phrased it wrongly.”

　　Heaving a sigh of relief, Jin Yumeng merely dismissed it as a poor attempt at humor.

　　The next moment, the person across from her stated, “I should have omitted the word ‘may’ from the sentence.”
