The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

Su Cheng still didn't want to think the worst about other people's affairs:

"Maybe they took an unconventional approach and actually advanced?"

Liu Mengtian smiled slightly and said:

"Want to make a bet with me? I bet she'll be eliminated in this round!"

"You tell me first, what are you betting on?"

"How was dinner?"

"Dinner is fine, I'll bet!"

……

Two hours later.

Inside Duan Lingwei's office.

Bai Ye smoked a cigarette as he watched Duan Lingwei bend down and put on a pair of white stockings.

It has to be said that the curve revealed when she bent over made Bai Ye want to talk to Duan Lingwei again about investing in Xingyu.

"You bastard, if you're going to do something, just do it. Why did you tear my stockings?" Duan Lingwei finished dressing, turned around, glared at Bai Ye, and said, "Luckily, I have a spare. Otherwise, if people see me when we go out, who knows what they'll think of me!"

"Let's do our own thing, why should we care what others think!"

Bai Ye laughed:

Do you have enough stockings? Do you want me to buy you a few more?

"I don't need your money!"

Duan Lingwei gave a light snort and said:

"Bai Ye, you really do such a thing! Your little girlfriend is nervously participating in a competition, and you run off here to fool around with me!"

Bai Ye sighed, "There's nothing I can do about it. I can't stop missing you."

"You're just asking for trouble!" Duan Lingwei gave Bai Ye a disdainful look and said, "If your girlfriend knew what kind of person you are, how disappointed she would be in you!"

"Why don't we just keep it from her?"

Bai Ye reached out and pulled Duan Lingwei close, wrapping his arms around her slender waist, and smiled:

"Then you'll be Su Cheng's manager. You'll arrange everything she does—what movies she films, what events she attends. All her plans will be under your control. How could anything go wrong?"

Duan Lingwei chuckled and said, "So, you made me Su Cheng's manager because you planned to do this all along?"

"No, not really." Bai Ye buried his face in Duan Lingwei's hair, took a deep breath, and said, "How could I have guessed back then that you would be willing to get back together with me? I just felt that I could only feel at ease if Su Cheng was in your hands!"

Duan Lingwei: "You, all you know how to do is sweet talk to me."

"Who told you to fall for my trick?"

Bai Ye laughed and said:

"As for the investment agreement with Xingyu, find a time to have your lawyer draft one, schedule a time for us to come over, and I'll sign it."

"So hasty?"

Duan Lingwei frowned as she looked at Bai Ye and said:

"How can you do business like this? Aren't you afraid of being ripped off?"

"But you're right here! I don't believe you would harm me!" Bai Ye grinned, revealing his teeth, and said, "Besides... with my job, do you think anyone would dare to swindle my money? People like that usually regret being born!"

Duan Lingwei recalled some of the things Bai Ye had shown at times, and it seemed to be true. Unless he didn't want to continue living in the human world, he wouldn't think of swindling money from desperate criminals.

However, given Bai Ye's trust in her so much, Duan Lingwei felt it was necessary to give Bao Bai Ye a proper reply.

big deal...

Buy a few more pairs of stockings.

……

By the time Bai Ye walked out of Duan Lingwei's office, it was already close to dusk.

"Judging from this, Su Cheng and the others' competition should be over by now, right?"

Bai Ye stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, stretched, and said lazily.

downstairs.

Su Cheng and Liu Mengtian stood in front of a large screen displaying photos of people who had won the preliminary rounds and advanced to the next round.

"I scored, you scored, and Ye Qiao scored too! We should celebrate!"

Su Cheng hugged Liu Mengtian's arm and said excitedly.

"You made it, isn't that obvious?" Liu Mengtian said, hugging a teddy bear. "She only made it in one game, let's talk about it when she gets to the finals!"

"Ugh!"

Liu Mengtian sighed softly and said:

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have bet with you!"

Previously, Liu Mengtian had made a bet with Su Cheng: if Ye Qiao was to advance to the next round, Liu Mengtian would have to treat everyone to dinner.

Su Cheng ignored Liu Mengtian's feigned pitifulness. She took a breath, calmed herself, and said:

"I hereby officially declare that I am hungry!"

Even if Liu Mengtian is very strong, she can definitely have a meal without any problem. However, after being invited, she might have to eat noodles for a few more days.

"My God, save me!"

Liu Mengtian, with tears streaming down her face, pleaded with the gods and Buddhas, and softly leaned on Su Cheng's shoulder.

Su Cheng chuckled and patted her head, saying:

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just dinner. Don't worry, I didn't eat much at noon, I was just looking forward to this dinner!"

"hello!"

Ye Qiao popped out from behind, patted Su Cheng on the shoulder, and laughed:

Hello!

"You scared me!"

Su Cheng breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Ye Qiao, and patted her chest.

"Why did you suddenly jump out from behind? It was scary."

"Excuse me."

Ye Qiao raised her hand in apology, smiled, and said:

"Let's go eat!"

Su Cheng was completely bewildered:

"what?"

This girl is way too outgoing. We've only known each other for a few minutes, and we're already having dinner together?

Ye Qiao: "Aren't you hungry? It's almost lunchtime, my treat!"

"My God, you have appeared!"

When Liu Mengtian heard that Ye Qiao was going to treat everyone, she realized that she didn't need to treat anyone herself. She immediately bowed to the heavens and thanked the gods and Buddhas for their help.

Su Cheng lightly nudged Liu Mengtian with her elbow. This was too embarrassing! We'd only just met this girl, how could we let her treat us?

She turned to Ye Qiao and said apologetically:

"Um, didn't we just meet?"

"Once we get to know each other, we're good friends!"

Ye Qiao said it as a matter of course.

She studied in the UK and has lived abroad for many years, so her way of thinking is very Westernized.

Liu Mengtian was afraid that Su Cheng's excessive politeness would ruin Ye Qiao's invitation, so she quickly asked:

"So, what are we going to eat?"

Ye Qiao: "Come to my place, my Western food is pretty good!"

Su Cheng: "But..."

"Orange, stop with the 'buts'! Ye Qiao invited us so sincerely, it would be disrespectful to her if you didn't go, wouldn't it? We're just making friends!"

Liu Mengtian grabbed Su Cheng's arm and shook it, saying:

"You always say that we should make more friends, because having more friends means having more options!"

Bai Ye got off the elevator and walked into the lobby. He saw Su Cheng and Liu Mengtian in the center of the lobby, so he went up to them and said with a smile:

"Su Cheng, Meng Tian, ​​how are your grades?"

"We've all made it to the next round!" Liu Mengtian looked at Bai Ye and asked, "Where have you been? We haven't seen you at all. It's not very good that you weren't there for Su Cheng at such an important moment."

"I'm sorry," Bai Ye explained with a smile, "I just went to discuss a business deal, so I was delayed for a while. My bad, my bad."

Su Cheng knew that Bai Ye and Xingyu were in talks about investment, so she naturally wouldn't blame Bai Ye for this.

"Oh, it's alright, there are priorities!"

"Su Cheng, what's this?"

Ye Qiao looked at Bai Ye curiously and asked.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Bai Ye." Su Cheng quickly added, "Bai Ye, this is Ye Qiao, a friend we just met."

"You've only been here a short time and you've already made friends? Su Cheng, you're amazing! You can make good friends anywhere!"

Bai Ye chuckled and teased Su Cheng, then looked at Ye Qiao and extended his hand:

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Ye Qiao."

"Nice to meet you too."

Ye Qiao was friendly.
