That afternoon, Ji Rui, who said he wanted to spend more time with Baobao, acted out of character and didn't cling to Le Tong after work as usual but packed up his things early and left.
"Le Tong, I have a social engagement tonight. Please tell Baobao that I won't be there to accompany him tonight."
Le Tong, who was packing up, responded with, "Alright, I got it," while secretly wondering. His schedule for tonight was clearly blank.
Could it be that after hearing what Yang Sheng said during lunch, he suddenly had a conscience and truly wanted to take on some of the social engagements himself?
However, strange as it was, Le Tong didn't ask further questions.
Ji Rui paused slightly beside her. Apart from hearing her faint "Got it," he heard nothing else and felt a bit disappointed, yet he had no right to blame her for being indifferent to him.
"Then I'm heading off." Ji Rui lifted his foot helplessly.
