Lan Xi's words were a clear message to Lin Yun: 'I'm jealous. You'd better figure out what to do about it.'
Letting out a helpless, bitter laugh, Lin Yun said nothing. The group continued to chat idly for a bit. That evening, Bai Ling held a special banquet for Lin Yun. She invited Patriarch He, Patriarch Qi, and Patriarch Cai—all patriarchs with whom Lin Yun was on good terms—to the Bai Family's residence.
During the banquet, the young Mo Qingliu insisted on sitting next to Lin Yun, no matter what.
Although Mo Qingliu clung to Lin Yun, both Lu Bingning and Lan Xi could see that the girl was just an innocent child. She had never experienced any real hardship and was simply pure and adorable.
"What a player," Lan Xi muttered to Lu Bingning beside her. Hearing this, Lu Bingning just smiled faintly and said nothing.
