Once the notification sounded, Yaya hurriedly checked Yu Ziyuan's barometer. He checked it with a flat face, not showing any emotion.
A few seconds passed by, and Yaya reported to Lai Jiayi in a cold tone, [Yu Ziyuan's barometer is 22%, quack.]
'Only 1% behind your barometer.' Was what Yaya didn't say. The duck just buried his body inside the tote bag, hiding from Lai Jiayi.
Lai Jiayi paused. The girl rubbed her chin and was deep in thought.
'22%, huh. Then my barometer should be higher than that secretary, or the same. I can't pinpoint my exact barometer as I haven't checked it, but yeah, I think I'm only a bit higher than Yu Ziyuan.'
Lai Jiayi inhaled and sighed. The girl then silently peeked at Zhao Yang. The guy was still working without care, acting as if there's no one else in the car.
Lai Jiayi's lips twitched. She silently cursed Zhao Yang in her heart.
'If you are going to ignore me, then why do you allow me to go with you? Hah.'
Lai Jiayi could feel her head just throbbed again.
'Forget it. I should just enjoy the ride– '
Lai Jiayi paused. She caught sight of Ji Zhuang in a black suit up crop top. The girl was riding her Tron-themed motorcycle, floating in the air, following closely behind the car.
'Speaking of which, I wonder if Ji Zhuang's barometer is also high or not.'
Lai Jiayi went silent for a few seconds before she asked Yaya,
[Check Ji Zhuang's barometer. Ah, check Chu Feng too.]
'Today, I have to make sure everyone's barometer is higher or lower than mine.'
[Okay, quack.] Yaya nodded, and a notification came to Lai Jiayi's mind.
TING! [Checking Chu Feng and Ji Zhuang's barometer. -20 points. Total points left: 460 points left.]
A few seconds after the notification sounded, Yaya spoke to Lai Jiayi with a cold voice, [Chu Feng barometer is 17%, quack. Ji Zhuang only got 15%, quack.]
Lai Jiayi subconsciously sighed in relief.
'Good, good, so I am one of the players with the highest barometer.'
This just brought a sense of comfort to Lai Jiayi's heart. So when she knew Zhao Yang still ignored her, she didn't really feel down.
Just like that, the car arrived at the G restaurant. The vintage interior of the restaurant came into view, and somehow, it's a match with the duo Zhao's clothes.
"Ahhh, it's been a while since I last came here!" Zhao Yun grinned. He entered the restaurant, along with Zhao Yang and Lai Jiayi. But today, the boy walked beside Zhao Yang while Lai Jiayi walked behind them.
The girl looked like a babysitter or a servant that way. But strangely, Zhao Yang didn't say anything. He didn't even look at Lai Jiayi or ask her to walk faster.
Because of Zhao Yang's ambiguous actions, Zhao Yun subconsciously looked back. He peeked at Lai Jiayi and saw the girl's face became as stoic as his uncle.
! Ahhh As I thought, there must be something happening with these two!
Zhao Yun gritted his teeth as they went up to the highest floor using the crystal elevator. No one spoke along the way. Not Tianjin and not even Yaya.
Zhao Yun instantly felt awkward just by standing near Zhao Yang and Lai Jiayi. He felt as if there's an invisible barrier among those two, separating them like an old enemy or something.
'Uh...should I ask my uncle?'
Zhao Yun thought as he came out of the elevator. As usual, the waiters welcomed them, but the boy didn't pay any attention to them. He just walked toward their usual seat and sat down near the glass wall.
This way, Zhao Yang sat right across Lai Jiayi.
'If it's like this, they should talk to each other soon, right?'
Zhao Yun looked at his uncle and Lai Jiayi with expectant eyes, but contrary to his wish, the two of them didn't even look at each other.
Zhao Yang stared at his hologram panel, and Lai Jiayi was looking at a certain singer.
'Ah, that's Ming Yue.'
Lai Jiayi stared at the girl with turquoise hair. Today, she wore a mocha-colored halter dress. The dress looked like it's made of countless 'dry leaves,' the one often used as a crown in ancient Greek.
It looked mature and goddess-like, truly suits Ming Yue's vibe as a siren.
Lai Jiayi subconsciously lowered her head and sighed. She glanced at Qin Bai in her usual waitress uniform, and couldn't help but ask Yaya.
[Check Ming Yue and Qin Bai's barometer too.]
Lai Jiayi lowered her hand and placed it on her lap. She didn't know why but she got cold sweat.
'Their barometer should be below me, right? I mean...not as high as mine, right?'
The girl couldn't be sure.
